  • 2% (EuUnurfptt fniri Vol. VI A Neighborly Call from the Hills to Kindred Spirits Everywhere Cullowhee, North Carolina, December 15, 1928 Columbians Entertain New Students On Friday evening, Dec. 14, the Columbian Literary Society gave a Christmas party in honor of the new students, who have entered for the Winter Quarter, and the boys' basket ball team. The Columbians are always anxious that new students breathe of the friendly atmosphere that pre- vades our campus social life, and that they feel at 'home in our midst from their very first day in Cullowhee. After everybody, excepting the performers, had had a great deal of fun from the impromptu and stunts, Vernelle Coley played the part of Santa Claus and distributed gifts from the lovely Christmas tree. All kinds of gifts, from non-skid teething rings to imported marbles, were given. As was to be expected Joe Hays and Etta Kinsland's presents were joined together, and a great deal of fun was furnished by Joe's and Etta's desperate effort to separate them. After a word of welcome to the new students from the president of the society, everybody departed just as happy as if Santa Claus ihad really been there. Interesting Contest Held in Chapel The chapel program for December 5, was conducted by Mr. Stillwell. He gave a demonstration on the pronunciation of words which were commonly mispronounced by his students. Mr. Stillwell selected eight students, two from each section of history. The students were asked to take the front seat as their names were called. The words were written on a blackboard and placed on the stage so they could be seen by the entire audience. The following judges were selected for the contest: Miss Feagans, Dean Bird, and Pres. Hunter. The judges being selected, the students for the contest were asked to retire from the auditorium. The pupil pronouncing the greatest number of words correct- iy was to be given a small prize. One by one the pupils were called upon to pronounce the words, after which, Dean Bird pronounced them correctly. The words most commonly mispronounced were: often, massacre, statistics, with, and admirable. The judges were asked for their decision, which was unanimously in favor of Miss Edna Bright, who pronounced the greatest number of words correctly. The prize was presented to Miss Bright by Pres. Hunter. The contest was enjoyed by all who , attended the program. WINTER QUARTER OPENS WITH REGISTRATION DECEMBER 13 The winter quarter opened with registration on Thursday, December 13. The enrollment to date is a little less than the fall quarter enrollment, however students will be allowed to register as late as January 2. This date was set to accommodate new students coming from the eastern part of the state who are entering for the winter quarter. The enrollment for the winter quarter last year was 171. It is expected that the present quarter will show an increase of at least twenty percent over that of the preceding year, making a total of around 210 students for the winter quarter. An unusually high standard of work has been held causing several students to have to withdraw at the close of the first quarter, thus decreasing the number re-registering for work. On the whole the work has been unusually good and the outlook for the entire year is the best ever. The number of boys enrolled at the present time is 30, a considerable increase over the past few years, and quite a few more boys are expected after the holidays. Party Given During Holidays On Friday night, November 30, the students who had remained at Cullowhee were given a party in the reception hall. An interesting and varied program was rendered. Mrs. Posey started the fun by making Miss Tilley and having her to dance. This was followed by a reading of "Naughty Zell" by Alice Jones. While we were still in the laughing mood, Frances Tarlton gave another reading which was very appealing. Annie Lee Mun- dy gave a piano solo, "Moonlight." Virginia Spence rose to the occasion and told a Big Old Bear Story. After this, Miss Reams gave us a reading on a subject more important than bears, namely, "husbands." The subject of husbands having been discussed, Marion Stewart played "Love Sends a Little Gift of Roses." Mr. Allen, by this time, had gotten into the spirit of love; so he sang with great feeling the "Only Girl I Ever Loved" and "Willie." The whole gang participated in some stunts which were very interesting and beneficial. We all had an opportunity of hearing a Humanaphone. Another thing which was very interesting, was the demonstration of how to act on a train. This will prove to be useful since Christmas is near, and it has been a long time since September. Domestic Science Class Entertains the Boys On Wednesday evening, Dec. 5, at six o'clock the Domestic Science Girls, Section 1, delightfully entertained the Cullowhee Normal boys at a lovely four-course Christmas dinner, given in the dining room of the Home Economics Department. The room was beautifully decorated with holly, bells, and other things characteristic of the Christmas season. The color scheme of red and green was carried out very effectively. Red candles in brass holders furnished light and cast a soft glow over the room, which made it a very charming On account of sickness and various other reasons only fifteen of the twenty-five Normal boys were present. Misses Izma Riggs and Elsie Perry rendered several musical selections, which were enjoyed by all present. Also, several victor numbers were played. Mr. Hooper and several of the boys made short interesting talks. Mr. Plemmons and Beaman Kelley in behalf of the boys expressed appreciation for the dinner given them. J. Walter Moore also gave his "farewell address" to the class, since this quarter ends his work at Cullowhee for his diploma. (Continued on page 3) Societies Battle in Tennis Tournament One of the most interesting, and certainly the most enthusiastic, athletic events that has taken place on the campus this year was the tennis tournament which was held November 26 between the Erosophians and the Columbians societies. The players of both societies fought hard for victory, and their supporting members played almost as hard as they surged along the side lines, giving their players every support that voices and mental powers could. No better display of society spirit and good sportsmanship could have been made. The losers were victors in that they lost well. The games ended in a tie between the societies—the Erosophian girls winning in both singles and doubles, and the Columbian boys winning both singles and doubles. The line up was as follows: Columbian—Singles: Pauline Mc- Bane, Joe Hays. Erosophian—Cora Leslie, Roy Wat- Columbian—Doubles: Pauline Mc- Bane and Velma Rice. Joe Hays and Reece Holladay. Erosophian—Doubles: Cora Leslie and Grace Riddle. Roy Watson and Frank Reagan. Three Students Complete Normal Course As the winter quarter begins and the new students arrive, there is quite a turmoil on the campus, but over it all there is still the feeling that some of the old students are missing. Three of our most active and beloved students will have gone. They are: Miss Sue Haigler, Miss Minnie Mull, and Mr. J. Walter Moore. ,. Sue will be missed by the Methodist Sunday School Class, for she was their president, by the girls, for she was always willing to play for them (Continued on page 3) Erosophians Honor Columbian Winners On Friday night, December 7, a party was given by the Erosophians in the gymnasium in honor of the Columbians who won in the Yodel Subscription contest. The guests received a hearty welcome by the Ero- sop'hians as they arrived. When every one was seated, the impromptu program began. The songs and readings that were given created much interest. Several contests were then played which brought peals of laughter throughout the building. Following the program, refreshments were served consisting of salad, sandwiches, mints, and hot cocoa. Lady Teachers Move to Davies Hall Moving—moving—moving—was everyone moving out of Moore Dormitory? It seemed that way on Monday morning, Dec. 3, when the majority of our faculty residing in Moore packed their belongings and ascended to Davies Hall. Throughout the entire morning, a steady stream of movers trudged their weary way up and down the steep steps which connect their lofty abode with the rest of the campus. They were laden with boxes, baskets, brooms, books, piles of wearing apparel, pictures, etc. Indeed, it was quite a busy time. Those who have taken up their residence in Davies are: Misses Graves, Benton, Ray, Bancroft, Wools, Suiter, Simpson, Martin and Blackstock. It might be added here that the lady teachers are making this change in order to give more room in the girl's dormitory, the Moore building, for girls who are coming in for the winter quarter. A large crowd is expected, and the lady teachers are to be congratulated for their generosity in giving up their rooms for the new girls. We certainly do mi=s the members of our faculty who have departed from Moore Dormitory, and we sincerely hope that they will enjoy residing in their new home—Davies Hall.
