  • Monday, May 5, 1947 THE WESTERN CAROLINIAN PAGE FIVE lll.lMllllMlllHIMIIIIIlllltlll IIIIIIIIIIIMHIIIIMIIIIIIIIIIMIIIr SOCIAL ACTIVITIES ><M IIIIKKIIII Fads And Fashions LOEE ALLEY You wake up every morning and hardly know what to wear. We see evidence of this all during the day. People come to breakfast in skirts and sweater. They even meet first period class in those clothes then rush madly upstairs between second and third periods just because the sun is out and they are roasting. What I'm trying to say is the time is now. With only three more weeks of school, if you don't wear cotton clothes now, when are you going to wear them? Now to recognize the ones who have been sewing lately. Our first attention should be directed to Jean Patton and Betty Jo Brooks. Those simple chambray dresses they have made from grey and pink with the gay colored belts certainly do look appealing. Chambray is always right and it does wash so well. The problem of coats to wear with summer dresses in the evenings has best been solved by Betty Buckner. Have you noticed that soft white jacket with the fly-away sleeves. That should inspire more of us. Others similar to it are owned by Jean Mauney and Jean Patton. Of course some praise must go to those girls who are struggling so nobly with their own May Day dresses. Betty Lou made her own from green satin brocade. Becky Lee who vowed she couldn't sew did a very neat job on her orchid brocade. Others who made their own were Merle Stamey and Jane Gibson. It wouldn't be spring without barefoot sandals, but cheers go to Bobby Dillard and Nancy Blanton in outdoing us all in farefoots. Moccasins, ballerinas and Japa nese one-strap are making the rounds. It's been fun noticing all the fresh chambrays, ginghams, chintz and pique dresses appearing on the campus. A lot of them are new ,but let's not slight the old. With soap, water and starch we can make our debut in last summer's cottons. Dr. Wendt And Young Admirer Dr. Gerald Wendt, famous lecturer who spoke here recently, is shown above talking with one of his youthful admirers. Baptist Choir To Present Concert The Cullowhee Baptist choir will present a concert of sacred music at Murphy, Sunday evening, May 18, at 8 o'clock. The church will entertain the entire choir group at dinner. Under the direction of Dr. H. P. Smith, the choir will present the same program given in the Cullowhee Baptist church Sunday evening, April 20. The program will consist of vocal duets by Rev. and Mrs. R. R. Osborne, Jr., anthems by the full choir and all girl choir, and trio numbers by Mrs. Hugh Preston Smith, pianist, Rev. R. M. Osborne, clarinetist, and Ruth Hooper, violinist. THE GRILL Complete Restaurant And Fountain Service Jimmie Gaither, Prop. 34 Broadway BREVARD, N. C. Wendt, Noted Lecturer, Speaks On Atomic Energy Dr. Gerald Wendt, editor of Science magazine, and former science editor of Life, Time, and Fortune, said in a lecture at Hoey Auditorium Monday night, April 21st., that he did not believe that atomic energy would bring any economic or industrial problems that American Industry could not solve—if it saw them coming. Speaking on the topic "Salvation through Science," Dr. Wendt stated that the ultimate possibilities of atomic energy, properly developed, and of other war-time discoveries in science, could hardly be exaggerated. "It's entirely possible that within ten years or so some young man will invent a rocket with which he can shoot himself off into space," he said. "But he won't come back." Dr. Wendt discounted talk of a war between the United States and Russia in the near future. "It will fake at least four more years for them to make an atom bomb," he declared, "and they won't attack us as soon as they make one. They wouldn't dare start a war unless and until they knew they had enough to still have a good number of them left after ours were all gone. He added that he thought we could devise an adequate defense against atomic war through international law. Although Dr. Wendt's audience was not unusually large it was enthusiastic. A large number of faculty members, students, and others took part in the discussion which followed. A reception for Dr. Wendt followed his talk, and was held in the Student Union building. The group discussion continued there for about an hour. An unusually well-informed boy about ten or eleven years old stole the spotlight during the first question-and-answer period in the auditorium, and held it during the reception. He not only asked intelligent questions, but ventured into the deep water of argument with the doctor, offering his information and opinion on nearly every question that came up. Miss Cushman Visiting Campus Miss Rebecca Cushman, authoress, has relumed to We Carolina Teachers colleyc for a short visit after bc'uvA a! Chapel Hill for a month discussing publication for her next book. On Saturday, April 26, Miss Cushman visited Sunset Farms where she was the principal speaker at the annual luncheon of the Bryson City and Cherokee division of the American association of University Women.
