It’ll CURL Your Hair
Since our last bull-session, I’ve
eaves-dropped an’ snooped around
’til I’ve covered enough dirt that
wiU not only CURL YO’ HAIR,
but is mighty liable to bust your
eardrums as well. So take my ad
vice and go slow, ’cause this read
ing is some kinda hot!!!
Yo’ know, some people just have
a way with men. This statement
is self-evident if you let your more
important thoughts dwell on Pol
ly Lewis. She hasn’t gotten
VERY many “responses” from
that first Q-D affair, and what’s
more, she is still getting tern!
Dorothy Dix might have “all
the answers” for some, but it’d
take more than her column to
help Nina Claiborne. With two
different men calling her all the
time, does she ever have to wor
ry about a date?
It must be the “real” thing if
Mildred Hancock always gets that
look in her eye when that certain
someone is mentioned. Must be
wonderful love, that is!
If you ask me, upperclassmen
should think twice before asking
a freshman, “Could you possibly
date someone Saturday night?”
From all reports—good an’ bad
(and what -could be bad when
Davidson is concerned???? Don’t
answer that!) These Queens cuties
really flipped the whole David
son campus on a recent Saturday
night, and I do mean “flipped”!
If you could have heard recent
sessions on the subject, they’d
have really CURLED YO’ HAIR.
Mentioning names, Beth Dobbins
and Myrma Smith had numerous
invitations to homecoming. Why
can’t things like dates be ration
ed, huh????
Speaking of dances, Shirley
Siddel ceritainly got a some kinda
big rush that night. And I add,
quoting an up and coming David
sonian wolf, “That gal’s got it!”
It’d CURL YO’ HAIR, if you
could hear Reid Regan raving
about her “dream man” at State.
She aught to clue in MGM,
’cause he sounds like Hollywood
material!
What I wanta know is, “How
cute can couples be together?”
Lee and “Lt. Tyler” give any
place atmosphere when they’re to
gether. That’s one time when
Cupid’s dart hit solid—^huh, Lee??
You don’t have to dish much
dirt around campus before you
hear Barbara Ann Jobe’s name
mentioned. It’d CURL YO’ HAIR
if you heard what happened the
last time she was home!
Keeping telephone duty isn’t al
ways so bad. In fact, it can prove
mighty interesting. For instance,
I couldn’t say what I didn’t hear
—or on the other hand, what I
could repeat—when Torry re
ceived a call from Gene. Her only
statement for the press, “The rela
tionship is purely plationic.”
Yeah????
Weekends at home prove most
profitable when “certain persons”
are there. Nancy Weaver and
Rainey Gamble didn’t miss paint
ing the town red by even a shade
when they saw their “fellers” on
a recent trip. “Ain’t love grand!”
It isn’t enough for Dot Wilson
to have three men. She went to
Davidson and broke two other
hearts—or at least stimulated
them!
Looks like for M. K. Ledford’s
sake Davidson and Carolina could
be considerate enough to arrange
“homecoming” on different week
ends. The question of the hour is,
“Who will be the lucky guy!”
There must be something pow
erfully interesting at Wake For
est! Some of our “Queens” of the
ball at homecoming were Evelyn
Alexander, Tilda Gibbs, and Lois
Mann. Someone should have been
under those magnolia trees ’cause
I bet what you’d have seen and
heard would have been enough to
tantalize the devil!
The information most wanted
by the press is, what lucky girl
is going to get pinned in the near
future???? Of course, I know,
but that would be telling, so keep
your eyes and ears open. It’s food
for gossip—and headlines, too!
This is the official but under
ground announcement that Ann
Crosland.is “keyed”. Not pinned,
not engaged (not quite, that is!)
but “keyed”! And further more,
he isn’t a GI in the freshman class
of ’52. He’s a lawyer!
Everytime I pass through Bur-
well Goldie Barron is singing out
—I mean “stepping out”! Like I
said before—why can’t these
things called “MEN” be ration
ed?
Football games aren’t the only
things C. Collins goes to see at
Carolina. Just ask her why she’s
looking forward to homecoming
so much! It’d CURL YO’ HAIR if
you knew!
Fay Langston wants someone to
explain why “The Citadel” wasn’t
built in Charlotte instead of
Charleston. Things would be much
less complicated!
The scandal of the moment is
—when are Maria and Benny
setting the “big” date!
It’d CURL YO’ HAIR if you
knew: Why Frances and Bud
didn’t hear anyone calling them?
(I won’t say where they were!!!)
Why Martha Jane Cockrell floats
around on a “pink” cloud all the
time!!! Who Margaret Fowler’s
“beat of the moment” is for?!!!
What Maynon and Charlie did the
last time she saw him!!! Who
Charlotte’s new crush is!!! Who
Katie Chapman spends all her
time writing!!! How many hearts
beat only and solely for Kellah
Murray!!! How Clara Barnes al
ways wears a big smile!!! Could
it be that pin? Why Rachel Britt
doesn’t like blind dates!!! Who
Betty Pratt’s thoughts dwell on
most nowdays!!!
I’m still bubbling over with
scandal, ’cause my supply is ab
solutely inexhaustible, (you can
imagine how much time I spent
studying) But all things must
end.
Be careful about what you say
or do if you don’t want your ac
tions publicly exposed ’cause
otherwise I’ll be sure to catch up
with you. My favorite pastime is
CURLING people’s hair by paint
ing reputations black. Til the next
bull session!

Personality Girl
Did you ever wonder what it
would be like to know a person
who has a small injection of
atomic power in her veins? Well,
look no more—she is in our midst.
She is always on the go either do
ing something for others or ask
ing for that one little donation
that will help so many others. She
does stop long enough in one
place to put a poster (which she
makes!) thither and yon, and then
she is off again—Cleaving you to
exclaim, “How much energy can
one person have?”
If you haven’t already guessed
who our Personality Girl is, allow
me to continue with the descrip
tion. Her sense of humor and her
friendliness have won her many
new friends to her already over
flowing circle of admirers. I’m
sure you’ll recognize that little
tilt of her head, the ready smile
she has for everyone, and the way
she always spares a minute to
chat—which leaves you with the
feeling that it is a nice day after
all. Her bright outlook seems to
touch everyone with whom she
comes in contact.
Versatile? I should say so! Her
interests and abilities range all
the way from a mean “Poncho” in
tennis to her legislative duties.
Give her a job to do and it is done
before there is time to worry.
Surely you’ve guessed by now
—^but if not, let’s get down to a
few more definite items. She has
lovely reddish-blond hair and oh!
such bright eyes. So many men—
but “The One” is adding his per
sonality to Duke Divinity School,
leaving his studies only long
enough for that week-end trip to
Charlotte.
Knowing our Personality Girl
as you all do, you have probably
already realized that it is none
other than that little package of
TNT, Doris Lawing.
“O wad some Power the giftie
gie us
To see oursels as ithers see us
It wad from mony a blunder free
us
An foolish notion.
What airs in dress and gait wad
lea’e us.
An ev’n devotion!”

BAPTIST GIRLS
ORGANIZE CLUB
On Tuesday, October 26th, the
Myers Park Baptist Church in
vited the Baptist girls on campus
over to the big hut for an infor
mal coca-cola party at which time
plans were made for establish
ing an organization in which the
girls will be able to work and
have social functions together.
Davidson College boys wish to
begin a similar organization, and
eventually, the two will go to
gether to have their functions.
Mr. Bob Poerscke and Miss Peggy
Green presided, and each girl
gave her own personal opinion
concerning the plans. A meeting
was scheduled for the election of
officers. The only plans definite
ly settled were to have two meet
ings a month, one in which to
have discussions and the other
one to have social functions.
Throughout the year, great plans
will be made for the advancement
of a more organized feeling be
tween these Baptist girls. Thanks
to the Myers Park Baptist help
ers.
