Pag* Four THE HILLTOP, MARS HILL COLLEGE, MARS HILL, NORTH CAROLINA lloLLEGE Knowledge By ELAINE ENSCHO She just adores long, baggy sweaters with pearls or gay neck laces, sloppy saddle oxfords, thick, floppy anklets (colors don’t matter), silly somethings stuck somewhere in that glamorous Greta Garbo imitation coiffure. Her hands are smeared with ink from lecture to lab and back again, and her skirt often weighs anchor on one side. She can never find a clean handkerchief, espe cially when mascara starts its watery journey down roughed cheeks. Her conversation is brok en by pops of gum or the drug store blues emerging from her soda straw. She is an information bureau concerning any football game for the past three years, but she goes limpid with fright when the discussion turns to current world events. She can swing any popular piece and recognize the orchestra, but her expression turns to one of dumbfoundment when strains of a prelude or son ata become audible. She can fill in gaps of conversation with a steady stream of blowy babble; but, strangely enough, she never Says anything. She practically sup ports the grocery, drugstore, and cafe investments. She pulls out a dusty copy of How To Win Friends and Influence People when she doesn’t have a male ad mirer for every bead on her string of pearls (imitation, naturally). Her motive for being is certain ly indefinite, if, indeed, she does possess such a rare quality. Her aim: that handsome blond on a string (Packard or Buick, of course). Address: any campus whose inmates are of both male and female gender. This seeming ly empty piece of ornamentation is what we call the typical col lege co-ed. Despite her eccentrici ties, we still love her. Blay she never become extinct. A Rising Building Pictured above is the new $100,000 science building with Pro fessor S. O. Trentham, professor of Biology and Botany, who is inspecting the building. The work was discontinued during the recent cold spell but has been resumed and steel window frames have been inserted into the rising walls. Campus Personalities International Summary (Continued from page 2) countries of the hemisphere. Ger many and Italy have a deep hold on the country, and thus the United States finds trouble that may some day be one of her chief international problems. Mean while Argentina continues to ex pand and to draw closer to the dictator nations. Our Friend Brazil has always been the friend of the United States. She is the largest in the ABC group and has a vast empire of natural resources. Her thirty million peo ple have turned toward a social change policy, but the United States can count on her to help stop any real menace that might develop in South America. Chile Chile is the third country in the ABC group and perhaps the most feared of all South Amer ican countries, for she is military minded. However, Chile is a strong link in the Pan-American chain, and we can always count on her for cooperation and sup port. Chile has many economic problems to face in the future. There Are ‘BEAUTIFUL FLOWERS THAT WILL ALWAYS PLEASE YOU” At ROBINSON’S FLOWER SHOP i; 5 Page St. Aiheville, N. C. (Continued from page 2) tant of Brown dormitory (second floor). His natural appearance belies the fact that he is frequent ly “putting on a show” and en joying immensely the reaction of others. His height is five feet eight and one-half inches, and he weighs one hundred and fifty- two pounds. His mother calls him “Grandpop.” TOM WHITE— A native of Washington, D. C., and an authority of governmental aifairs. He is vice-president of the Philomathian literary society and former president of the I. R. C. He also takes an active part in forensic work. A good worker and excellent student, he is neverthe less not a bookworm and really enjoys the lighter things of life, romance, etc. An abundant crop of blond hair is his distinguishing characteristic. He is six feet no inches tall and weighs one hun dred sixty pounds. “GIN” TERRY— A good-natured Clio from Ham let, whose nickname is an ab breviation, not an insinuation. She is now vice-president of the Clio society and formerly was secre tary. Active in glee club work, she is a valuable member of the college sextet. Noted for her j good humor, she is, even though a pre-medical student. It is neces sary to mention here that she is crowned with auburn locks, but her height, weight, etc., must be ob tained from the lady in question. EMILY PATRICK— C-I president of the Nonpareil literary society and a member of the Dramatic club. She is vice- president of the Scriblerus club and a prominent member of the forensic team. Altogether very vivacious, charming, and has a keen sense of humor. Quite a few young gentlemen have vied for her favor, each thinking himself preferred; perhaps all of them were fooled. A good conversa tionalist and always good com pany, her degree of elongation and avoirdupois may be regard ed as “satisfactory.” “PERK” PERKINSON— The “gal” with the radiant per sonality and winsome character. A leader in religious work, she is noted for her practiced religion and exemplification of Christian principles. She is a member of the college glee club and is form er censor of the Clio literary so ciety. She was secretary of last year’s C-I class. She has soft brown hair and a broad, good- humored face which sometimes shows a trifle of impishness, frank and sincere; she is a girl anyone should be proud to know. Height and weight may be obtained from their owner. CLAIRE HARDIN— President of the Nonpareil lite rary society and violinist in the college orchestra. She is a mem ber of the B. S. U. council and a former president of the Scrib lerus club. An interesting and entertaining speaker and a fine person to have for a friend. She is very versatile, being in the glee club and sextet in addition to numerous other activities. Somewhat abbreviated in stature. but that future seems to be bright indeed.
