THE BENNETT
COLLEGE SCiil
OLD “FRIENDS”
RAGED AT BENNETT
GREENSBORO - Bennett Col
lege this week bade farewell
to three old friends -- friends
who had come to be known and
received by more than three
generations of Bennett students.
Smith Cottage, Trigg Cottage
and Tobias Cottage -- three
white frame building, which for
more than 60 years housed fa
culty and staff, were razed
this week to make room for the
new million dollar science
building on which construction
has already begun.
The structure, which faced
on Macon St. on the West cam
pus, were here when Dr. David
D. Jones assumed the presiden
cy of the institution in 1029,
and, until this month, had hous
ed two families and si:; to eight
single women each year.
Because of their proximity
to dormitories, the cottages
attracted scores of students who
“just happen to drop in” around
meal time, ostensibly to see one
of the teachers about a class
assignment. They were, in a
sense, homes away from home
for the hungry and homesick.
Tobias Cottage w as named in
memory of Miss Blanche To
bias who died whilje serving as
a member of the Bennett facul
ty. Trigg Cottage was named
for former President Frank
Trigg and Smith Cottage for
Mrs. Nan Goode Smith, a long
time friend of the school.
Cottage residents have now
been housed elsewhere, but for
then, and for scores of re
turning alumnae, the relentless
bulldozer that destroyed these
old friends could never destroy
the pleasant thoughts of them
that will live forever in their
memories.

men using an old "pigeon drop”
game that has netted them as
much as $50,000 in recent
months.
The white and Negro pair
has victimized women in sev

The pitch is almost always
the same each time. They of

money and win her confidence.
Then they scram with the “pi

They approach a "pigeon” by
claiming to have found a large
amount of money. They sup
posedly don’t know what to do
with it, so they offer to share
it with the victim.
But, here’s the rub: The "pi

lighter At NYU
NEW YORK - Bayard Rustin,
a pacifist and fighter for civil
rights, discussed "The Under
class in the City” this week

and Washington Square South,
Manhattan.
In 1941, he became race rela
tions secretary for the Fellow

the first field secretary of the
newly formed Congress of Ra

Mr. Rustin was imprisoned
during World War II as a con

his release in 1945, he was
named chairman of the Free
India Committee. In 1947, he
took part in the first Freedom
Ride, and was arrested in North
Carolina, where he served 30
days on a chain gang. His
report on that experience ap
peared in The New York Post,
and led to an investigation and
abolition of the chain gang In
North Carolina.
Mr. Rustin helped Dr. Mar
tin Luther King organize the
Montgomery, Ala., bus boycott
in 1955, and in the following
year, drew up plans for the
founding of the Southern Christ
ian Leadership Conference. He

The white woman was iden
tified as 20-30 years old, 5'
2-4’’, 120 pounds, blond hair,

The Negro woman was de

with eloquence. Rather, he took
a normal speech mechanism and
supplemented this with practice
in order to make himself an
articulate speaker.
In delivery, King makes great
use of his nasal lesonators
(nose) which enriches tiis vo
cal resonance. In appropriate
words, he carries his listeners
through the whirlpools of frus
tration and injustice. As he
does, one is swayed by his poe
tic cadence, combined with di
gnity and the beauty of a Ro
land Hayes singing a senti
mental spiritual.
The orator handles figures of
speech effectively, some of
them are most unusually des
criptive.
