Reading Day: For the second time
at St. Mary’s a reading day is being
provided the week before exams start.
This day will be Saturday, January
23, and no classes will be held for
the college students. The purpose of
a reading day is to give students an
extra day to prepare for exams.
Freshmen Sold: A Slave Sale was
held by the Freshman class on Thurs
day night, January 14. The members
of the Freshman class were auction
ed off to the highest bidder by Mr.
Connelly. Refreshments were also
sold to help the money-making pro
ject. The slaves were required to do
chores for their “masters” which
ranged from cleaning their rooms to
shining shoes.
Fire in Smedes: Although it was
not a full fledged fire, the smoking
of the wires in Smedes created a great
deal of excitement. At about 2:00
a.m. on Wednesday, January 13, the
bells began to ring all over the school.
Everyone had to leave the buildings
for a fire drill as soon as the fire
captain arrived on the scene. As a
result of all the excitement the night
before, there were many sleepy girls
on campus the next morning, and the
bells do not sound the same since.
Aiay Day Planned: “Peter Pan” is
the tbeme for this year’s May Day
which will be held the first weekend
in May. Tryouts for May Day were
held on Tuesday, January 12, in the
gym. Mrs. Bailey was very pleased
by the large number of girls who
decided to be in May Day this year.
The choreography will be done by
the members of Orchesis.
Girls Visit Dix Hospital: This year
the Y.W.C.A. at St. Mary’s is again
sponsoring a program at Dix Hill.
The program is a volunteer project
in which various girls belonging to
the Y.W.C.A. take part.
This year the program is different
from that of previous years. Each
girl who goes is designated a specific
time to go, and she is on her own to
see that she goes once a week or on
her designated day. The various jobs
which the girls do are working with
the people in the arts and crafts
room, the wood-work room, or the
sewing room. Sometimes they talk
with the patients to give them com
pany. Each girl stays there for one to
two hours. Some of the participants
this year are Clara Leder Ladd, Kay
Symons, Tully Crockett, Tappy Mas-
sie, Jane Morris, and Betty Raye Car
rington.
Halls Checked: The S.G.A. and
members of the Hall Council check
ed St. Mary’s dorms during Chapel
Services Sunday and Monday. The
penalty for skipping these services,
is a ten day campus, inclusive of one
weekend, is rigidly enforced. Since
most of the girls who skip chapel and
get caught never do so again (skip
chapel that is), let this be a warning
to other students.
