BELLES OP ST. MARY’S
May 31, 1957
Many Thanks
Lucy McPherson
Beckoning Belles
The students at St. Mary’s are usually so busy with their school work
that few are aware of all news concerning politics and various other
world situations. To give an opportunity for more people to gain
knowledge of world affairs, Lucy McPherson orders and delivers The
News and Observer each morning to its subscribers. As in no other
single piece of literature, a newspaper informs the reader of news of past,
present, and future in all parts of the globe. Lucy’s dependable service
contributes much to developing the versatile knowledge of the students.
Many thanks for her educational service to St. Mary’s.
Are You Glad To Leave?
Seniors, for you we shed a tear.
(We know you’ll be glad to get out
of here.)
We know that you’ve enjoyed this
year.
(Sweatin’ English hasn’t caused
you MUCH fear.)
The counselors we will certainly
grieve.
(Don’t you know they hate us to
leave?)
As you leave we’ll see that sigh of
sorrow you heave
(Ha! But not us do you deceive.)
There just couldn’t be a group of
girls that’s finer.
(But we know you’re looking for
ward to Carolina.)
And there couldn’t be a group of
girls that’s kinder
(But, be good “over there” is our
little reminder.)
’Tis certain it’ll be hard to bid the
goodbyes.
(However, we don’t see any tears in
your eyes.)
Seniors, you know we’re only trying
to tease—
And we want you to come back
often, nleasel
Mary Spainhour stated disgust
edly the other day that three peo
ple have inquired whether or not
the old looking picture of her young
beau on her dresser is her Papa.
3rd Smedes has finally found
a way to save wear and tear on
the legs. A bright little basket with
a bell attached is lowered to the
basement from the top floor and
anyone who happens to be around
fills it with goodies.
Things are getting pretty bad.
Soon people will be saying “Can
you spare a nickel? I’ve got the
penny for my coke.”
The installation of officers was
a meaningful ceremony, not only
for those taking part, but for us
all. We have every confidence that
the new officers will step into the
shoes of the old ones and fully
measure up to the high standards
set for them.

Summer is almost here! We’ve
worked so hard all year that many
of us have forgotten our popular
“tuneology.” We read enviously
the occassional notes from our girl
friends that praise the very latest
“pop” that they heard at a dance
with their dreamboat. We turn on
our radios, hoping to get wind of
the newest disk, but all we can
get is static, tunes from the 1800’s
and crop reports from Timbucter.
We run downtown, get a fabulous
new record, return and put it on the
record player. It is then we dis
cover that somebody broke the
needle. Everything works against
us when we try to catch up on our
“tuneology” during school.
Then exams come. The last
thing in the world we want to hear
is a catty guitar and a sax. All
we want is quiet, quiet, QUIET.
Of course during this time a com
plete revolution is going on in the
“pop” survey. By the time exams
are over, we are really lost.
Finally, when school is out and
summer is really here, we can bake
on the beach and dig the latest
disk. We are happy and content,
for now we are no longer ignorant
