The Western Carolinian Vol. XVIII No. 1 WESTERN CAROLINA TEACHERS COLLEGE, CULLOWHEE, N. C, Monday, May 22, 1950 GENERAL HOWARD TO SPEAK Dean Albright Resigns After Fifteen Years Miss Anne Albright, Dean of Women, announced her resignation last Thursday after 15 years of unbroken service at Western Carolina Teachers College. Her resignation becomes effective at the ,end of the Second Summer Session. Miss Albright said in interview that she planned to retire to her home in Waynesville, where she will occupy the ancestral home place. The Queen, as she has been called for years, came to the campus fifteen years ago on the request of the President of the College. Since then she has served in the capacity of Dean of Women. It has not been learned who will take the place of the retiring Dean. Miss Albright began her career soon after she finished high school in Waynesville in 1911. From there she went to Women's College and graduated in 1915 with a B. E. (Bachelor of Education) degree. She went right into the Dean business by becoming the Lady Principal in a Presbyterian Boarding School in Alleghany County. For two years she was the Lady Principal, but when the school was turned into a school for girls, Miss Albright left. For her, co-education is the only way of education. After leaving Alleghany, Miss Albright went to Fremont and taught for three years, and then went on to Adon where she taught under the old Fremont principal. But she kept longing for the hills of home and after two years at Adon, she came a little closer home. High Point High School was her next stop, where she taught History for five years. She applied for the job of Dean of Girls and after working in that capacity for a while, she became Dean of Students. For seven years she held this position. Then all teacher salaries were cut in North Carolina. In two years her salary went skidding down from $2000 to $1650 and then to $720. "I often wondered," mused Miss Albright, "if I would have thought of my duty to my sick parents who were alone in Waynesville if I had not thought that my salary would be the same in Waynesville as in High Point." At any rate she came on to Waynesville and took a teaching job there, where she was Dean of Girls for one year. Because of her one year's service there, she was invited to take a job at Cullo- "whee. That was in 1935 and for 15 years she has been the Dean of Women, the Queen to hundreds of students passing through Western Carolina. In 1937 Miss Albright was invited by the Carnegie Endowment of International Peace to attend lecture on International Law at A Review Of The Science Circus by Garland Wible Last Wednesday night one of the biggest laughs of the season was given at Cullowhee. Bob Brown, master of ceremonies and entire cast of the show The Science Circus, entertained a small aud- dience in Hoey Auditorium by performing some of the simple but outstanding feats of science. Highlight of the show was the laughable performance of "Pockets" Brown, a student, while under a spell of hypnosis. The 'show began with a rather superficial treatment of the various effects of vibrations in the field of physical science. This was carried on in a high school fashion and for the most part boring to the audience. It was neither informative or entertaining. Let's try to forget about it. The show really got under way with an act of hypnotism. Miss Betty Brown, a rising senior, was hypnotized at her seat in the audience from the stage. She was then brought to the stage where her shoulders and feet were rested on two .chairs. Miss "Babs" Babington then proceeded to sit on Miss Brown's mid-section with ease. Some people, being rather skeptical of this feat of suggestion were asked to come, to the stage for a demonstration of mass hypnotism. Mr. "Pockets" Brown stole the show by becoming so entranced that he fell in love with Bob Talion. The set of circumstances was enough to bring the audience to tears of laughter. The facial expressions of "Pockets" Brown were rather deep and tragic embodying the deep and thoughtful soul which dwelled within at the time. He showed great possibilities for the dramatic world. The next act in hypnotism was performed on Gene McLean and Bob Haliburton. Both boys fanci- (Continued on page 4) 106 Candidates For Degree B. M. O. C.

She also studied summers at the University of North Carolina and at Columbia University. She holds a Masters Degree from the latter. As to her plans Miss Albright said, "I had the rare good fortune to come into possession of the ancestral home in Waynesville. I have converted the large old house into apartments, and now I have a four unit apartment house which contains extra guest rooms. The house is located on an acre of land, and I plan to live there, entertain my guests, and garden to my heart's content." Miss Anne Albright, the Retiring Dean of Women GUTTING EXPLAINED A Dissertation Dr. El Skin After many long hours of research and much running about on the campus trying to interview men "in the know", the writer has finally compiled the necessary information concerning the "Cut System" at Cullowhee. In an article which appeared in the Western Carolinian some months ago, the system was explained—erroneously! This is written to correct and to clarify The College Handbook is in error as to the method that is followed in deducting hours from a student who has excess cuts or ab sences. The College Catalog is in error as to the method thai is followed in deducting hours from a student who has excess cuts or absences. Not only is this true, but a more significant feature is that the students are not aware of the method used by the Absence Committee when appeals are made concerning deducted hours. Perhaps the Catalog and the Handbook explain the system as it is thought to be by some people. But the actual working of the system is different. One of the places in the system that is misunderstood is this: Excused cuts do not accrue deducted hours for the student. As one of the faculty committee members explained it: "Beyond the maximum number of absences, deductions are made only on unexcused absences. That means that a student may have as many excused absences as he can get excused without losing credi (forgetting the rule that states that if two weeks absences occur in any one class, the student loses credit for the course). By this a student could have 20 excused absences and lose no credit. If he had 19 excused cuts and one unexcused he would lose one hour. His second unexcused cut (bringing his total cuts to 21) would count off 1-2 hour and he would lose 11-2 hours credit. From the foregoing explanation one can surmise that it is quite important for a student to have all absences excused or at least as many as he can get excused. The second important place of the excused absence concerns the appeal made by a student who has had hours deducted and wishes to regain them. The practice of the committee in dealing with appeals is to restore credit in proportion to the number of excused absences as compared with the total number of absences. That means that a student who has 10 excused cuts, 10 unexcused cuts and would ordinarily lose 5 hours credit, when he appeals he would have 2 1-2 or 1-2 the total deducted hours restored to him. If 1-4 of his total cuts were excused, and if he had over the maximum number, he would regain 1-4 of the deducted hours. This procedure is employed to give the student back in proportion unless he only has one hour deducted, which the committee will not restore. AS IT STANDS YOU HAD BETTER HAVE ALL CUTS EXCUSED. The band decked out last week for its first picture since the arrival of new uniforms. With a total of 34 members, all resplendent in a catchy, West Point style uniform, the band has reached its highest point in the history of the college. Mr. Ruff, Band Instructor, in an interview last week gave a review of the activities o f ihe band since his advent to Cullowhee. Said he, "Since my arrival here at Cullowhee, the band has not come up to standards set by larger schools but it has made some definite advances that should be made known. We now have 34 members in uniform. Those uniforms were paid for by student funds, $500 was given last spring and $2000 last fall. With that money we were able to buy the best uniforms on the market. Our new outfits feature a dual purpose coat that can be opened with the purple showing or closed military style. The caps are West Point style. "It is not, however, the uniform that makes the band. It is the ability and the willingness of the students to work. Last year there were 28 beginners on instruments, a large group of the former band personnel having graduated. Remembering that it takes a student from three to five years in training to play in a college level band, one can see that it is extremely diffcult to train the students for ihe band after they reach college. What we need is students who have had their "basic training" in nigh school, before they came to college. "To get students here who can play in a college level band, we must be able to go in the field and compete with other colleges in gaining these students. That means we must offer scholarships. So far this year we have received approximately $150 from the school for student helpers. Ninety Rev. McConnell Will Leave Cullowhee Rev. Charles McConnell will leave Cullowhee to serve as pastor for the summer of the Second Presbyterian Church of New York City, the oldest Presbyterian Church in America, on July 2. He will serve in the place of the church's regular pastor, the Rev. L. Humphrey Waiz, who will journey to Europe. Mr. McConnell will administer the affairs of the famous old church during the month of June and will attend summer school at Ulnion Theological Seminary in New York City during July and August. Mrs. McConnell, in addition to keeping house for Mr. McConnell and their children, will attend summer school at Columbia University. During Mr. McConnell's absence from Cullowhee, visiting ministers will offer services at the Cullowhee Baptist Church. Among them will be Mr. P. L. Elliot, President of Gardner-Webb Junior College, i Mr. Ben C. Fisher, also of Gardner-Webb, Rev. W. W. Finlator of the First Baptist Church, Elizabeth City, and Rev. Donald Myers of the First Baptist Church, Reids- ville. Mr. McConnell and his family will return to Cullowhee about August 24. Howard in the Commencement Address on Monday, June 5. The Rev.

The question arose in the meeting as to the eligibility of the candidate, and, finding no definite statement in the College Handbook agaist such an action, Charlie West, retiring president, put ihe question to a vote before the members of the rising Senior class. Ned Noblitt was elected vice dollars of that went to the chorus | president and Rose Cook was the accompanist, and the remaining only girl to score when she was $60 was left to the band for student help. . "Of 22 prospective high school graduates interviewed last year, every one had scholarships at other colleges ranging from paid tuitions to full college expenses." Mr. Ruff has worked with the high schools in Bryson City, Murphy, Franklin, and Robbinsville to develop interest in band and to provide a feeder service to the college band. "The college should serve as a sort of service station for further study and directional and instrumental problems," Mr. Ruff stated. The first Band Clinic was held this year on the campus.

College Annuals Arrive Th Catamount, the College An nual, arrived from the publishers late Saturday afternoon. Some few were given out to the students who were on the campus at the time they arrived. Tom Grogan, Editor of the Annual announced that they would be distributed from the Senate Chamber. In the past the year books have been handed from the Journalism Room, but it was .bought this year that the Senate Room would be handier. "During the prolonged siege, Colonel Howard commanded all beach defenses . . . Although exposed to many and repeated bombing and strafing attacks, and terrific artillery bombardments, Colonel Howard displayed outstanding qualities of courage, leadership and efficiency under most difficult and hazardous conditions." ' Born on March 8, 1891, in Washington, D. C, General Howard was graduated from the Virginia Military Institute in 1912. He was commissioned a second lieutenant in the Marine Corps on May 11,. 1914, at which time he reported for duty at the Marine Officers'' School, Marine Barracks, Norfolk,. Virginia. Following completion of his studies he joined the First Brigade Marines at Port au Prince, Haiti for his first tour of foreign shore duty.
