-^PERSONALS-X
People certainly did go home
this past week-end—What was it?
Business or pleasure? ’Fraid to
say!
Grace Walker, Edith Ramseur
and Helen Deans followed prece
dent and so did Marie Galloway,
Janie Berryhill and Margaret
Alexander.
The seniors are having the most
fun counting the days until
Thanksgiving—what lucky people
they are to be able to use their
class cuts in order to have the
two days afterwards — what a
long week-end that’ll be !
Diz Dameron was glad to see
her Uncle Jack—she had such a
big time.
Carrie Johnson went to Greens
boro last week-end. She heard
lots about the “Green Room” at
Salem.
Did Florence Moffett look for
ward to going to Rock Hill ? She
could hardly wait until art class
was over last Saturday.
Hally, Mildred and Beck all
went home with Virginia Par
sons to Kings Mountain. Were
they thrilled to hear Virg'inia play
over the radio? Well, just like
all of us were!
Did you see the cute little vil
lage the Home Planning girls
made? Mrs. Booker has been
instructing them this past quarter
on the exteriors of houses and
their floor plans. The girls model
ed their chosen homes out of clav
and painted them the desired
color. The village was beautifully
landscaped and even included a
lake and beautiful drives.
Q. - C. Girl In
Drama League Play
Mada and Hugha Lee seemed
worried over “pieces of . . . not
eight . . . chicken,” but despite
that, the Kappa Delta feed was
grand.
Pee Wee went to Chapel Hill
last week-end to visit her brother
and now she “wants” to return
once again.
Mrs. Wilson “wants” to go to
Clinton — anyone coming along
say “I”!
November Septre
V ery Interesting
“Little Stone” stayed out in
town as did Virginia Anderson—
my, don’t you know time flew!
Last week the first edition of
the college magazine, “The
Septre,” was presented to the stu
dents. This November issue in
cluded a host of interesting
articles- Especially fine was the
party.
There were quite a few articles
by new contributors, Emily
Cooper, Lottie Lane Joyner, Claire
Hazel, Katherine McLisky, and
Florence Laslie. Then everyone
knows we always turn with in
terest to any book reviews or any
other kind of review by Mrs.
Townend. All in all this was a
delightful edition.
Anna and Janie May also
stayed in town but then that’s
enough said.
Tank and Louise gave the
Alpha Delta Pi feed Sunday night
and it was some good.
Beta Pi Theta Has
Unique Meeting
^ Margaret Kellam had a big
time in Chester last week - end
when she visited Helen Wall.
Alice Washburn, Lib Mason,
Catherine Dickerson and Laura
Stallings went to visit the home
SCHOOL AIDS IN RELIEF DRIVE
(Continued from page one)
and social life, all schools and all
organizations, and business enter
prises taking part. Mr- David
Ovens started the move atQueens-
Ghicora, by making a most ap
pealing speech in chapel. The
entire amount contributed to the
fund was _ approximately a hun
dred and sixty thousand dollars. I
folks last week-end.
Rupert went home with Helen
also, to see that Margaret had a
good time.
Kate Lipe and Jane Tweed
stayed out in town and enjoyed
two or three minutes of it.
Helen, Morrison’s House Presi
dent, stayed with her aunt out in
town.
Kathleen and Cynthia gave the
Kappa Kappa Chi’s feed and even
Miss Edwards enjoyed it.
On Friday, November 13, Beta
Pi Theta met in the Chi Omega
Blouse instead of the Hut. The
time was moved up until 3 ;30. A
large number of the actives and
pledges were present. Nell Whit
worth had charge of the program.
The first selection on this pro
gram was a song by Iris Bryson,
Tes Yeux. Then Mary Louise
Thomas gave a poem. This was
followed by another French poem
by Mary Lou Grey. An unusual
feature of the program was the
singing of the “Marseillaise” by
the entire group. Miriam Duncan
talked on the most important
places of interest in Paris, giving
a brief description of each. A talk
by Alice Catham on the physical
features of France ended this part
of the program.
The president took up some
necessary business and announced
the aim to carry on all the busi
ness of the club in the future in
French. Plans were also made
for a program for chapel.
When the business session was
over, plates with marquerites,
nuts, and coffee were passed.
There was a pleasant half hour
spent in conversation, and then
everyone left with a hearty “Bon
jour.”
Queens-Chicora has the honor
again of one of her girls being in
a Drama League j^lay. The Drama
League is cjuite prominent in
Charlotte and it is quite a privi-
leg'e as well as an honor to be
asked to take part in one of their
plays.
On Wednesday, Thursday, and
Friday of this week, this group
of players presented “Camille.”
Sara Elizabeth Motte had a quite
outstanding roll in this play,
which is the version of Dumas’
famous novel. Sara Elizabeth’s
performance was watched with
interest by many of her friends,
for she long ago won acclaim as a
promising actress. In her inter
pretation, she again marked down
another excellent performance to
her score.
Dramatic Recital
Scheduled Tuesday
On next Tuesday night, Novem
ber 24, the Dramatic Club of
Queens-Chicora will make its first
public performance this year. A
very entertaining program has
been arranged under the super
vision of Miss Ethel King.
Although most of the numbers
on the recital will be given by old
girls, one or two new entertainers
will perhaps be presented. There
has been no official announcement
of a definite program as yet, but
these selections will probably be
included:
Gretna Green” — by Virginia
Deane.
“Madame Buterfly”—by Jose
phine Dandridge.
“The Barretts of Wimpole
Street (a scene)—^by Carolyn
Kirkpatrick.
“The Lily of France”—by Sarah
White Cunningham.
“A Pair of Lunatics”—by Mary
Frances Austelle and Virginia
Deane.
This recital begins a new year
of programs by this club; and if
the students are enthusiastic and
like the program, the girls may
be influenced to do more things
of this sort with several larger
productions of plays.
MRS. BYRD IS BACK
We are indeed glad to have
Mrs. Byrd back in our midst.
Every one of her classes missed
her bright face and cheery voice.
We hope that she will continue to
improve—why, because we need
her!
