Ml'. Mills attended Charlotte College for two years, and was ffraduated from the University of North Carolina with a Bachelor of Arts Degree in 1950. He received his Bachelor of Laws Degree in March of this year and passed his Ba" examination in August. Williams Lee Mills, Jr. Volunteering for the Armed Services in June of 1942, Mills served with the U. S. Army for four years. While in service he re ceived the Silver Star, the Bronze Star with Oak Leaf Cluster, the Army Commendation Award, and the Purple Heart with Oak Leaf Cluster for valor in action.

From 1946-1947 Mills held the position of Cabarrus Count Veterans Service Officer. He resigned to enter college. MISS PUETTE RESIGNS We regret having to print this sad bith of news, but we regret even more the fact that Miss Lucille Puette is leaving us on October 1. Not only has Miss Puette been our first Registrar and our first Treasurer, but she has also taught chemistry and business courses. While serving in these capacities, she has endeared her self to all students. The entire stu dent body wishes to take this op portunity to thank Miss Puett for her unfailing cooperation and her untiring service to all students; we also wish her everlasting success as one of the Vice-Presidents of Carolina Paper Board Company. HOW THE FACULTY*' SPENT SUMMER ' Our Director, Miss Bonnie E. Cone, went to Boston, Massachu setts, in June to attend the annual ineetinj^ of the American Associa tion of Junior Colleg’es. Miss Cone has been appointed for an addi tional term as Junior College Jour nal Editorial Board Member for the Southern Association Rejjion. This consists of eleven states. Miss Puette has entertained numerous friends and members of the faculty at her family’s beach home at Garden City, S. C. Mrs. Edyth Winninjjham spent part of the summer in New York vacationinjr and studying’ at N. Y. U. Dr. Herbert Hechenbleikner, bet- tei' known as Dr. Heck, spent a two weeks tour of duty with the Army at Fort Meade, Maryland. Miss Mary Denny divided her time between vacationing at the beach and mountains. Dr. Macy taught French and Spanish at C. C. during the sum mer. Mr, H. A. Scott. Jr., has gone back to Duke Univej’sity for a Ph.D. degree in psychology. Mr. Edelman, our basketball coach, has been studying for his Ph.D. degree at Western Reserve University, Cleveland, Ohio. Miss Fore taught English during the summer session at C. C. Miss Fraser spent the summer with her family at Walterboro, S. C Mrs. Hoyle spent the summer at Manteo, Our Librarian, Miss Blair, went to visit with relatives. One of our last year’s graduates. Miss Harriet McSheehan, will be the assistant librarian for 1952- 1953. Miss McSheehan will also be taking advanced work at Queens College. The former Miss Jane Eve Odil became Mrs. White last June. Mrs. White taught at C. C. during the first session of Summer School. Miss Watson also taught at C. C. during the summer. SINGLES, SPARES, STRIKES!! Lats spring there was a great deal of enthusiasm over organiz ing a bowling team or league here at C. C. Since it is the aim of the Student Council to furnish the type of entertainment and recrea tion most enjoyed and appreciated by the majority of the students, we have been giving the question of a bowling team some consider ation. We feel that, in order for us to sponsor such a team, the ma jority of the students should show some interest in it. If you are in terested, please inforni some mem ber of the council and we will see what can be done. The doors of Charlotte College were open this summer as usual. We who were anxious to earn ad ditional credits took advantage of the opportunity. Various courses were offered. For instance, things rocked along smoothly for our Zoology class during the second summer session. The heat wasn’t noticeable down in the cool basement, and Dr. Heck kept us interested in his usual manner by pointing out the things which we “know” are not true but which happen to be true. One day I thought Pd grab a bit of glory. Bringing a popular book to class with me, I eagerly pointed out to Dr. Heck a theory that birds, because of their inferior brains, are not conscious. Dr. Heck looked casually at the book. “BALONEY!” he said. But Herbert Peake, realizing that variety is the spice of life, did not allow the class to dwell wholly on such scientific terms as aves, echir.odermata, mollusca, arthro- pada, and crustacea. Instead, he injected his customary stock of wit, jokes, and puns into the class room discussions. Meandering around town we all hear news from and about studonts of Charlotte College. The latest is that Bill Scholl, our “scholar’s scholar,” who enters Davidson Col lege this fall, is being seen less often in the company of books and more often in the company of charming young ladies. Sula Floros, it might be pointed out, is building a reputation as a charitable but omnipresent soul. Finding a fellow-student (I could say who, but do not wish to em barrass myself) broke and wait ing for a city bus, she lent him a quarter for bus tokens. Now, the fellow-student might have made out 0. K., invested the quarter and realized some interest; but, un fortunately, he ran into Sula a couple of days later on North Charlotte College is attracting more and more students from out of town. This special salute is of fered these students along with our best wishes for asuccessful year. We have Miss Barbara Ann Morris from Monticello, Florida, among our new students. William Charles Kane is from Cumberland, Maryland, Waxhaw, N. C., has given us two studets—John Kirk and Joe Blackburn. Ray V. Renegar is from States ville, N. C. Brice Williams is from nearby Tryon Street. Small world, ain't it? Particularly when you want it to be large. Arial Stephens, formerly Mr. Independent Party at Charlotte College, expects to enter the Army soon. We of the Progressive Party at Charlotte College hope that some tough army sergeant repays him (with loads of potatoes to peel) for being one of the big guns in thrashing our party. Snooks Howard, in spite of his recent defeat by Doc DeNaux in a boxing bout, seems none the worse for his experience. More than like ly, it would have been a different story had the pair met a few years ago when Snooks was at his best and bowlin’ ’em over in Florida. Kitty Monty hopes to enter Temple University’s School of Oral Hygiene sometime in the near fu ture. So don’t say you wern’t warn ed if some day, a few years hence, you walk into a dentist's office and Kitty lunges at you with a pair of forceps, a pitchfork, or whatever an oral hygienist lunges at you with. Mrs. Hoyle will be pleased to learn that some of her Spanish stu dents have been reviewing during the summer vacation (the latter part of it, naturally). Not only are the students able to recall an oc casional word, but they also re member one complete sentence: “El espanol es muy dificil.” Arthur Farley, as president of our student body, has been a whirl wind of activity. Obviously, he will prove one of the most effective leaders in the history of Charlotte College. He seems to have the “know how” as well as the will to exercise it. The same is true of Gene Williams, editor of the CHARLOTTE COLLEGIAN, and other recently elected student lead ers. Let’s all support them and do our part to build a greater Char lotte College! Monroe, and Henry E. Black is from Midland, N. C. Harrisburg, N. C., has given us many students—this year we have Robert Ledford and Kitty Ranson. Others among our returning stu dents who are from out of town aie Wellene Hodge and Charles Vess from Forest City, N. C. Dent Gaither is from Belmont, North Carolina. Velma Ray is from far off Tabor City, N. C. Aithur Farley is from Kannap olis, N. C. Mike and Bill Palmer come to us from Lenoir, N. C. —CHARLES BRICE C. C. ATTRACTS OUT-OF-TOWNERS
