  • Erosophian literary Society Elects New Officers At Meeting Continued from page 1 ■•rolling" will fall upon .or shoulders. Now is the time to get the or< Deration required to stand up under this great task. Shall It I" said that Western Carolina students have not developed those qualities tha o qualify for places in this great task? Come on STUDENTS a! s thrown bur hat.- into thi ting tor world leadership. Tne students can be-t get this trahvng in a real hard working literary socii we pass up this opportunity by failing to attend society and cooperating in every way possible. To you Erosophians that do not attend society 1 am talking. ety need your I'ull support. The members present expressed the desire that lbey wanted your support. If you do no. attend, you drag down the morale of the society, we need a hun- . a pel cent attendance in order to have the proper spirit. You are not only hurting yourself by not attend- v. but you are robbing someone else ol the training that they le- uig someone oi' a chance to be a leader. Students let US look at this situation with some common sense by comparing it to a base ball team. The society is a live organization as well as the ball team, suppose the short stop is taken off the team, after an inning or so the morale of the team begins to break, because hits are oemg made through this territory, they are unable to stop the opponents. The absence of any member from the society weakens the morale of the socio, y as did the removal of the short stop. If the short stop had been on the team the spirit of the team would have been strong, so with the society, when all of the members are present the spirit is strong. Stu- aents withm tne society i- the factor that makes the society worth while. You owe it both to the socieiy and to I to attend society. Your attendance makes the society spirit and society pirit makes the school spirit. The members expressed the desire to have a recitation and oratorical- essay contest for the girls and a declamation, oration, and debating contest for the boys between the two so- The Erosophians mean business; we are out for somebody's scalp at com- nt i olumbian ■. Officers Of Senior Class Interviewed Continued from page 1 popular personalities on the campus. Everyone knows and loves Mark and his grin, for he is the same yesterday, today, and tommorrow. He has a letter in the three major ■asketball, football, and baseball. For two years he has captained the basketball team, and certainly he. did "a swell job of it." He is President of the Monogram Club and vice- of Robertson Hall government. In 1931 he was chosen as King in the May Day Festival. -Mark is very original, extraordinarily so, in fact. But he says he's particular about what he says and he doesn't like to talk in public. His idea of misery is having a tooth pulled, and his highest ambition is to become a great athletic director. His motto is: "Profit by your mistakes and meet the world with a smile." With a motto like that plus a personality like Mark's failure is impossible. Vice-President—Pan] Buchanan Buck has been at Cullowhee for 3 years, for his Sophomore year was spent at N. C. State. As far as 1 can find out he is the only man on the campus to receive four letters—in baseball, basketball, tennis, and football. Last year be was studi in tennis. Paul has the honor of being the first President of the organized Student body, that office be held last year. H« enjoys any kind of spoil, especially leasing and aggravat- one. His idea of misery is the same one he had when he was seven—to take a bath. We are going to miss you next year, Paul, but you have our best wishes toward attaining you,- ambition of someday becoming President of the United States. Secretary—Eniogene Herron Imogene has been at W. C. T. C. for only two years, but what hasn't she done in thai time! Graduating from Biltmore Junior College with honors, she came to us and received .still more. Just read: Member of college debating team for two years, Editor-in-chief of "The Catamount," member of student-faculty council last year, first piesident of both literary club and Buncombe County Club, a Columbian, and received honor teaching. Imogene's highest ambition is to be an "educator in all phases (you can figure out for yourself what she meajjs by that), and she hates to be made to do things—especially go to bed early. Her most precious possession is a "strong box" where she keeps all her treasures—of the heart and otherwise. She is very much interested in travelling and philosophy, but she refusss to philosophize about love" because it's too serious a matter." She keeps a diaiy. A Blue Book she calls it, and I understand there are four volumes already. there are not any Emogenes to span- in this world, and next year there will be an empty space in the campus life that will be hard to fill. Emogene, we regret to see you leave us, for what are we going to do 1 Secretary—Charles Morgan Charles came from Weaver with lauiels that would reach from Maine to .Vianteo. At Weaver he was voted the best-looking and best-all-round boy on the campus, was a member of the council, and business manager of the annual (which office he holds heie also), and a varsity football and baseball man. This also he has repeated at Cullowhee; last year he was Student football coach. Charlie was a member 0f the faculty-student council last year also. He is an Erosophian. Morgan is witty, likes to argue, and to have his own way. He seems to have been born a leader. Although he has said he prefers brunettes, at piesent it doesn't seem so. He is tak ing practice teaching this quarter, and from all reports is making one grand slam of it. We are sorry this is our las, year uiili Charlie; as an athlete he has no equal, and as a business man he Is unexcelled. At the rate he's going you'll hear from Charlie Moigan. LENA t Al.DW Kl.L Dean Bird To Head The Summer School Continued from page 1 in a most vital way the life of the Cullowhee campus. He commands a respect from the students of both tne regular and summer sessions that is wholesome to the first degree. He has this year won the admiration of the students with his tolerance ^ni\ respect of their attitudes on important matters pertaining to campus life, practices, and ideals. Other faculty have shown the same splendid attitudes. Dean Bird was educated :'t Western Carolina Teachers College, Mars, Hill College, the University n( \ olina, and George Peabody College foi Teachers. He was formerly \ member of the University of North Carolina teaching staff. His wj-.. I I director of the summer School here last year was very successful. Open Forum Continued from page 2 an "e pluribus unum" complex. The gieatest fault that I can see in our present system of government is that our officials have tried to cover too much with their sub-departments. We have a department for this, a committee for that, and what-not for the One who is unfamiliar with routine of our college is so completely dumfounded with the complicated mass of ted tape that confronts him in his every attempt to accomplish anything that he usually gives the whole thing up as a bad job. Another criticism that I have to offer is the lack of understanding that exists in the faculty- faculty and student-facalty relations. In t.-ad of letting the welfare of the college be their one and only objective, the faculty members actions and are too often governed by selfish and elanish motives. Then, too, among the faculty we hear the rumblings of a constant war between the old, set ideas and the new, liberal teachings of the modern age. The faculty and students of W. C. T. C. are now gazing on each other with suspicious eyes. Both envious of each others prestige. Each trying to put the "monkey wrench" in the others machinery, thereby strengthening their own organization. These are the larger of the existing principles which are detrimental to our college progress as I see them. The remedies that I shall offer for our bad policies are puiely theorati- cal. The length of time or the amount of labor that it would take, to effect these reforms is beyond the my calculations. Fiist we I tablish a "common purpose" policy to predominate our faculty negotiations. All faculty members must cease to envy each others authority, and stick strictly to the bounds of their own departments. There must be a compromise reached in the straggle of the antique and modern id faculty and students must learn to respect each others rights and privileges, and let a spirit of co-operation exist between them. The "led tape" of W. C. T. C. must be eliminated. We must cover the duties of oui college with as few department;- as can easily do the work, thus eliminating the useless and superfluous. If these immediate reforms are accomplished, there will creep over our campus a feeling of pleasant co-operation and fiiendly brotherhood that will tianafoiro our college from a mediocre institution into a college of unlimited possibilities. If the true situation of this campus has been exaggerated the writer excuses himself by saying thot his personal experience here have tended to make him cynical.
