BELLES OF ST. MARY’S January 23, 1959 Lefs Give The Last Semester Our Best We will soon be entering the sec ond semester of the 1958-59 session of St. Mary’s. For many of us, this semester will be the last lap of the last mile at this school. This is the time for doing all of the things which we have left undone. It is our chance to study just a little hard er in order to acquire more knowl edge. This is also a good time to make the improvements in our selves which we have been planning to make for so long. During the second semester we should try to put forth more effort in everything we do. Let’s make our smiles a little brighter, our steps a little quicker, and our greetings a little friendlier. Let’s keep our eyes ever looking upward and our hearts beating steadfastly with am bition, for we are young and strong and able. Can we ask for more? Dr, Smedes Speaks Oh, the stories I’ve heard of the Christmas holidays! I can’t under stand why the infirmary isn’t full of girls with iron deficiency anemia. Exams, exams, exams! Everyone is rushed and tension is mounting high. Move over “tired-blood” girls, here come some girls with nervous breakdowns. Don’t look to January the twenty-sixth — look beyond that to January thirty-first. Re member that dread never accom plished anything. These two teams choose members to represent them in certain sports, and on many an afternoon I have seen finger nails and hair tear. The lack of support that these girls re ceive is pathetic. It couldn’t pos sibly interfere with your studies to take a few minutes out of a Mon day or Wednesday afternoon to cheer your team. It adds a lot to the girls’ morales. In case you’ve forgotten, this school is divided into two competi tive teams — Sigmas and Mus. Well, now there’s a machine for everything, and if it isn’t a ma chine, it’s a pill. The sophomores are sponsoring the ice-cream ma chine in the basement of Smedes, and everyone is enthralled with it. It offers good ice-cream, and it’s convenient — when it works.

More articles in the Belles like Mrs. Cell’s interview a few weeks ago. Less apathy and in difference; more enthusiasm and interest from faculty and students.
