THOSE BEARDS AND BONNETS mean Western Carolina College students are observing Mountaineer Month during November. Seated (L to R) are Bunny Broome of Glenville and Kay. Siewert of Cullowhee. Standing are Mark Rogers of Waynesville, Howard Sheeley of Fayetteville, Ray Newton M Draper, Jerry Short of Shelby, Dan Falls of Valdese, Duane Oliver of Hazelwood and Dick Carpenter of Lowell. Beards In Fashion Again; WCC Observes Mountaineer Month By MRS. LILLIAN HIRT Citizen-Times Correspondent CULLOWHEE. Nov. 19-Shades of the wild frontier! The students at Western Carolina College have turned back the calendar to the time when mountain men cut the logs for their own cabins, and their hardy women-folks helped in the building. Bermuda shorts and campus tweeds have been replaced by cal- ■ ico skirts and overalls. The willowy waltz and the hum- Ming rhumba have moved aside to spake way for the lively clog and the square dance. For November is Mountaineer Month at Western Carolina! Sponsored by the Student Union. Mountaineer Month began Nov. 1 when most of the young men or the campus forgot to shave. Today's crop of facial foliage bears bushy testimony to the fact that the boys have entered into -he spirit of it. Carefully, patiently, day by day, hey've trimmed, combed, and inspected; and the results, if you like beards, are certainly worth the effort. Rumor has it that the fellows _.re so pleased with their emancipation from the razor, they just might continue on through the winter. It seems likely, however, that they girls will have something to say about this. Actually, the girls don't get in on the act until the afternoon of Tuesday. On that date, from 4 p.m. on, they must don "old-timey" clothing and join in the fun, and they're eagerly looking forward to it. around looking for ways and leans to finish their costumes. On Tuesday evening, the month officially ends with a dance in the Student Union recreation hall. The hirsute gentlemen will squire I he gracious ladies to an old-fashioned hoe-down, and anyone who wants to dance but doesn't come costume will have to pay an admission penalty. Just to add interest, a gift valued at $10 will be presented for the best beard, and another valued at $5 will be given to the girl with the best costume. There is only one direction from the geographical South Pile: North.
