Out Of My Mind .And Yours As 1 once again take my pencil, my Thesaurus, and my dictionary and start my pro logue, 1 am stricken with the thought that no matter how or about whom one writes, someone else will always erroneously interpret it in a different way from which it was originally con ceived. An appalling thought ... so are thoughts of mid term exams and their results. Things 1 cannot understand: Mr. Trentham's biology lectures . . . women . . . where Daddy Blackwell gets his unfailing drive and energy . . . school spirit and its fluctuation . . . Citizen Kane" . . . comma rule 20e . . . why people continu ally break in on the privacy of one's thoughts . . . Things we would hate to be without: Dr. Moore's cheery "Good morning, young peo ple!" as he trudges sprightly along in front of the gym . . . Miss Claudia Allen's perennial flower garden next to River- mont, a thing of beauty strug gling valiantly between two drab and colorless buildings of yesteryear . . . Mother Trip lett's sincere, motherly two- minute sermons . . . Mr. Tilson and his boys to do all the dirty work on the campus grounds ■ • • ice cream . . . letters from home, and letters not from • • • sleep . . . roommates who graciously clean up our rooms . . . Things we could do without: A30 classes . . . beef more than four times a week short haircuts . . . history parallel . . . 7:30 curfew ... for men in the girls' dormitories . . . people who do not respect quiet hours . . . chaperons . . . ostentatious, juvenile freshmen who prevent people from en vying B. S. U.'s Wednesday by making chhdish remarks and raucous ' •’ ’ who sleep audibly m chapel . . . intoler ant and uncooperative people . . . people who think that the use of profanity is smart and tough — it is really illiterate Business Club Makes Delightful Trip The Business Club made a most enjoyable tour of the Kingsport Press in Kings port, Tenn., on November 4. Each year the club makes a trip to a prominent busi ness organization, and this one proved to be of unusual value. Kingsport Press is consid ered to be the largest press in the world, and many of the leading books and an nuals, including "The Ho witzer," of West Point Mili tary Academy, are printed there. The students and fac ulty members were shown the life processes of a book from the setting of the type 1o the binding and boxing for shipment. Reprints of Magnificent Obsession," Ramona, and "Bambi," were seen in print, as well as several new books that ore predicted to be quite successful. MUSIC NOTES By David McAdams Things 1 m glad I didn't miss: Mr. Blanton's inspiring week of messages ... Mr. Evering- ton s climatic travelogue, which made us realize more fully the beauty in life itself ... the excitement, with fisticuffs, on Hallowe'en . . . that midnight feast, with fried chicken . chapel the day the band played . . . the sheep feast on Main Street . . . any more problems on my math quiz . . . Mr. Dick erson and his football team when they stopped here last Tuesday. For the benefit of freshmen who didn'.t know him, he is the epitome of two of the most boys' fondest dreams: to be a perfect athlete and a perfect gentleman. Even vrith 22 mon-mountains of brawn and muscle (who called faculty and students alike "kids") to tax his patience on the foot ball field, he keeps his poise with inimitable ease . . . Things to look forward to: the dramatic club's play to night . . . ANNIVERSARY AND RECEPTION, with all the trim mings (blond and brunette) . . . the next home football game (two weeks) . . . "In Old Mexi co," with marimbas, castanets, The music library is be coming a very popular place, as can well be seen by the number of people who flock to the auditorium wing in their leisure time. There have been some additions to the library quite recently. Have you heard them yet? They ore (1) Sym phony No. 2 in D Major by Sibelius, (2) Bolero by Ravel, and (3) a recording of Robert Frost's poems, read by Frost himself. (Frost's best known poem, "Birches," is included.) The record of poems is owned by the Scriblerus Club. An old recording by the great tenor Enrico Caruso; Elegie, by Massenet, is also obtainable. "Selections from Show Boat" is the most popular vocal record ing. Of great interest in the semi-classics is Gershwin's Rhapsody in Blue. Those peo ple who enjoy classical music ask for Tschaikowski's Piano Concerto in B-flat Minor. The dating couples invariably re quest Libestraume. by Liszt, and Strauss' Blue Danube Waltz. The band is securing a set of tympani and a bell-lyre. These additions will greatly improve the already good quality of our band music. On October 28, 1941, the music faculty presented the music students in a student re cital. The program consisted and "Amopola" on November 26 . . . new furniture for the girls' dorms .. . last year's seniors who will visit us for anniversaries . . . Thanksgiving, and then,—Christmas Holi days! Missionary To Speak To Students Dr. J. B. Hipps, returned missionary from China, will speak to the students in chapel on Monday, Novem ber 10.

She Snoops To Conquer Shhll Have you heard the latest gossip? Well, here's Nosey again! Do tell us who said this: "Red-haired women don't marry meek men; they soon get that way." Joe, what's it like to date a glamour girl? Is Helen Griffin really out of Lucke, or is Jack just out of a line? We surely didn't know that one (pardon me, two) could go to the Mediterranean by way of sitting in the Right Wing, but a few couples got there. Maybe it would pay the foot ball players to stay home, for awhile. "Absence makes the heart grow fonder," and it isn't always for the absent one. A few figure in geometry is Nancy Hunter, Martin Ander son holding down two comers, and the mighty Casey wrest ling for a place at the third. Nancy, there is a law against trigonometry. Someone has reported that Billy Banks, Philip Livingood, and Paul Casey have abso lutely slopped playing cops and robbers, especially at night in the vicinity of im portant airports. John Adams, quote, "We each have our exits and our entrances." Comment: We hear he likes the dork ones in the west end of Edna Moore dormi tory. Citizen R. F. Cage is the man that runs the cake industry in Brown penthouse. Bill Boone has given up his hobby of collecting pole cats and has gone in for sign paint ing. Now that J. C. Jones is in the candle business, he be lieves in liberty. We often wonder! We see pretty girls and more pretty girls, but don't you think that Margaret Herndon has the "certain something" that ap peals to everyone? By the way, Jimmie Wright, couldn't you give someone a tip as to how you hold all the girls' attention. Please be a little more generous and let some one else have some of your technique. Some of the college students have chosen the following theme songs: Carolyn Short— "Billy Boy" and James Clark —"I Dream of Jeanie with the Light Brown Hair," Eleanor Israel —■ "Oh, Johnny, Oh," David McAdams—-"Dark Eyes," Bob Brissie—"Bergia," Bever ette Middleton—"I Only Want a 'Buddy" not a Sweetheart," Bill Gabbert and E. D. Dancy— "Two Sleepy People." Wanted: A secretary by Mary Lillian Culpepper to keep her dates straight. S. P. of the week: Bob Futch. Now, girls, don't rush, him too much. It certainly thrilled us to see (Continued on Page 4)
