However, not all of the credit
for this inspiration may be given
to the English Department. Much
of it belongs to his dormitory

tion. As he sits trying to com

moved.
First, he is astonished at his
friends’ consideration for their
fellowman. They are so humane
that they deliberately play their
radios loud enough for the un
derprivileged of Marshall and
Johnson City to enjoy them. Sec
ond, he is greatly uplifted by the
lovely music blaring forth. Prom
one side he hears Spike Jones’ ar
rangement of the ever popular
love song, “Soapin’ Down the
Wash,” from the other, a beauti
ful American folk-melody, “The
Still,” not to mention Ken Stan

TEN YEARS AGO marked the
ground breaking ceremonies for
the new Mars Hill Baptist Church.
TWENTY YEARS AGO school
opened with an enrollment of 790
— 395 boys and 395 girls.
THIRTY YEARS AGO Hilltop
columnist “Wilter Wunchell” in
structed the girls in Spilman to
smoke with equanimity: “If
caught, be nonchalant, girls —
offer one to the teacher.” The
first mystery play ever presented
on the Mars Hill campus was
given on Oct. 22, 1932. It was
called “The House of the Flash
ing Light.”
pans could cause cancer. Some
myths have hung on because, in
a back-handed way, they were
helpful — like the one about gar
lic being a preventive for colds.
Eating garlic doesn’t kill the cold
virus, but the pungent odor wards
off everyone — including cold-
virus carriers — who otherwise
might infect you.
Today, most of the old myths
are ludicrous. Others still spell
trouble in one of two ways: they
either cause endless and needless
worry, or they lull the patient
into false security when he really
needs expert medical help.
Can you tell myth from fact,
medically speaking? To help you
form a better basis for judgment,
some common medical myths, still
widely believed, are listed below
together with facts and profes
sional opinion to refute them.
, MYTH — That if you’re im
mune to poison ivy, you can ex
pose yourself to it needlessly and
never get a rash.
FACT — Poison ivy rash re
sults from an allergy, just as hay
fever does, and allergies are tricky
reactions. Cases are known in
which alergy victims have been
exposed to a certain irritant for
years before some undetermined
mechanism within the body set
off a reaction. Poison ivy is one
of the most notorious irritants,
so why take a chance? Incidental
ly, injections of some of the newer
steriod drugs have been highly
successful in clearing up poison
ivy rash.
MYTH — That the human heart
is a delicate instrument, easily
damaged by physical exertion.
FACT—A research team head
ed by Dr. Wilhelm Raab, of the
University of Vermont, found in
studies made in the U. S. and in
Austria that a healthy heart is
associated with regular, inten
sive exercise. Athletes, moun
taineers and lumberjacks scored
well on physical tests involving
low pulse rates, high muscular
efficiency and quick recovery af
ter exertion. Sedentary workers
didn’t do nearly as well.
Among the latter. Dr. Raab’s
group found that 6 to 12 weeks
of regular, intensive exercise
could put many “tired hearts”
back into shape again.
Corn flakes do not make the
softest mattress, according to
Mary Lee Hurt, Homecoming
queen. And Emily Sue Bailey, this
year’s football queen, is an avid
fan of chapel programs.
Both Mary Lee and Emily Sue,
two South Carolina natives, had
the privilege of being “shocked”
to no mean degree when being
congratulated on their selection
as queens. For auburned hair
Mary Lee, the “shock” came dur
ing a cheerleading session when
Coach Hart tapped her on the
shoulder and said, “Congratula
tions.” “It was a surprise,” said
Mary “since I didn’t even know
I was running. It didn’t really
hit me until I called home to tell
my parents, and then I started
getting all excited. After all, this
doesn’t happen to a girl every
day.”
Emily, a petite ash-blond from
Lancaster, S. C., enjoyed her
“shock” in almost the same way.
“It was when I was going to
chapel,” she reminisced, “when
Coach stopped me and said, ‘con
gratulations,’ and then everybody
was congratulating me. I was al
most ready to congratulate my
self. And when they told me, I
still couldn’t believe it.”
Although they are both queens,
they differ in some aspects. Mary
a voice student, likes all types of
music — from classical to pops,
with preferance for Johnny Ma
this. Emily, an exhuberant pop
fan, passes off Johnny Mathis for
George Shearing: “the utmost!”
When asked about dancing, Em
ily kept a discreet silence . . .
while her friends smiled. Mary
Lee, who once studied ballet, was
more outspoken: “I’m all for it.”
The queens both have ambitions.
Mary Lee plans to teach music
from an aesthetic point of view.
Emily will tackle the job of medi
cal secretary. And when the time
comes — South Carolina — hark!
Both girls plan to vote Republican.
Mary Lee’s only complaint
about the honor was that when
she returned to her dorm that
night and went to bed she found
herself lying on a mattress of corn
flakes, a gift from her dormitory
sweethearts. Emily had no trepa-
dations. Her only regret was that
she was so excited that she missed
the entire • chapel program.
The HILLTOP apologizes to
Susan Walker, a junior from
Roanoke, Va., for omitting her
name from the dean’s list for
last semester. Last year we
managed to leave her name out
and when. we finally added it,
we gave the wrong informa
tion. Susan, known as “the girl
who is always there,” procured
51 q.p.s. That is right, isn’t
it Susan? Please?
Color films of Homecoming
will be shown in the gym Monday
night at 7 p.m. The student body
is invited to see these films. Coach
Henderson announced.
