State Boys Start Second
Year In St Mary’s Program
By Ann Dixon
For the past two school years, St.
Mary’s dining room has operated on
a plan which gi\'es students an op
portunity to earn extra money by
serving meals. There are 23 girls
and 11 boys who work regularly,
and there are also substitutes.
The dining room is divided into
sections, and several workers are as
signed to each section. They are re
sponsible for setting the tables, serv
ing the food, and cleaning the tables
at the end of the meal.
The plan to bring State students
to help in the dining room was start
ed bv Bill Merritt, now a Senior with
a major in Civil Engineering.
Near the end of his sophomore
year, he talked with Mr. Bob Eisele,
district manager of Saga Eood Serv
ice, about a part-time job and liked
the thought of working in a girls'
school! He came to see Mr. Rowe
and they arranged for him to begin
work at the start of his junior year.
The first few days. Bill helped
with the picnics and parties of orien
tation week, then started bringing
other boys to help in the dining
room.
Bill says he works for the money,
but because the girls—and especially
those with whom the boys work-
are so nice, that his job “is a pleasant
diversion from school.”
Eddie Dement has been working
at St. Mary’s since the beginning of
this program. He likes his job so well
that he is planning to do full-time
work in food service. He spends 35
hours per week at his job, plus study
ing for a major in Economics. Fie
thinks that the girls who work in
the dining room are very nice and
fun to work with.
Bob Merritt, Bill’s brother, is also
a trainee in the food service business.
He is an applied matb major. Ac
cording to Bob, St. Mary’s girls are
“very good conversationalists.”
“Olie”—he says that’s his whole
name—flatly admits that he doesn’t
work for the money, but because he
enjoys seeing all the girls! He is a
senior with a double major-chemistry
and zoology.
Ken Eiler and Ken Benson say that
they work for the money, but all the
girls are “good kids. ” Bobby Cook
remarks that he thinks “all the girls
have good personalities.” Even
Walter Sewell, who seems to be an
anti-feminist(n), says that, “for a
bunch of girls, they’re not bad!”
Along with these regular boys are
also Elliott I lornbeck, Rodney Ben
son, and Roy McCann. The substi
Xerth ('arolina State I'nivci-sity Student Eddie Denient supervise.s as Cherry
.Aii.stiii and X'aney Jolinson serve Inneh to the students.
tutes are Bobby Pace, Wally Lee,
Harold Sellers, Ward Latta, Craig
Givens, John McAlpine, Ron Wise,
Larry Hensley, and Billy Shaver.
The girls who work are Cherry
Austin, JoAnne Crawford, Alerry de
la Vergne, Merrie England, Lisa Cil-

Sandy Harrell, Alartha Flarrelson,

The Granddaughters’ Club is an
organization composed of girls whose
mothers, grandmothers, and great
grandmothers attended St. Alary’s.
Their annual project is the selling of
address books at Christmas and at
Commencement. The club also as
sists the Alumnae Secretary in wel
coming the alumnae on Alumnae
Day.
On Wednesday, October 27, the
club held its first meeting, at which
time the officers were elected. They
are as follows: Skinner Anderson,
president; Lucile McKee, vice-presi
dent; Arabella Nash, secretary-treas
urer; and Sally Borden and Martha
Crawley, project chairmen.
jor in Hotel Administration, who di
rects the cafeteria helpers, and on
whose shoulders lies much of the re
sponsibility of the functioning of the
dining room.
Because all of these people are so
nice, it is hoped that each St. Alary’s
girl will treat them with the respect
and good manners they deserve and
will show them that they are appre
ciated.

Boy-Girl Films
A film and recording series on boy-
girl relationships designed to give a
clearer understanding of sex was
presented to St. Alary’s students by
the chaplain. Air. Grant O. Eolmsbee
last week. Basis for Sex Morality was
composed of six lectures delivered by
the Rev. Canon Bryan Green on
records with film strips.
The topics of the lectures were:
“Love, Friendship, and Alarriage”;
“The Nature of Sex”; “Man-Woman
Relationship”; “Pre-Marital Relation
ships”; Rationalizing Sex Behavior”;
and “Guidelines For Sex Behavior.”
Dr. Green feels that high school
and college students are in desperate
need of intelligent guidance to help
them form a basis for sound sexual
ethics.
Since the average young person is
bewildered by conflicting attitudes
regarding sex. Dr. Green, in his re
cordings, has tried to help the youth
understand the morals of sex.
