Editorial Page Of The Western Carolinian From The Dean's Office TO THE STUDENT BODY: At this date, we are happy to note that the flu situation on the campus is improving. We sincerely hope that by the time this paper reaches you it will be almost entirely over. We would like to offer this assurance to the students who have lost so much time from their classes, as a result of the epidemic, that all absences will be excused without loss of credit. It is, however, absolutely necessary to have each class absence excused in order to avoid losing credit hours. Please call by the Dean's Office and secure the proper card immediately. It is my understanding that each professor is doing all that he can to help students make up the work lost during their absence from class. Some are meeting in the evenings with groups in an effort to do the work outlined for this quarter. Please see your professors and indicate your desire to make up the back work and I am confident that you will receive their full cooperation. This is to wish you well and hope that each of you will survive this and many more flus! W. B. Harrill, Acting Dean Clarence Goode One of the best friends this college has, Clarence Goode, left last Sunday to become a reporter on the staff of the Hen- dersonville Times-News. Clarence will be greatly missed here on the hill. Last year he returned to his Alma Mater to become the first full-time Student Union Director in the history of the college. Under his fine leadership and devoted service the Student Union program has developed into a vital part of our campus life. He is to be commended for his work here. We know that he will make a valuable contribution to Hender- sonville and its citizens. Marvin Cole should do well as the new Student Union Director. Having served on the Student Union Board for some time, he knows the program of this recreation center and is fully aware of the responsibilities involved in directing its activities. With the Clubs Baptist Student Union The BSU was privileged to have with them this past week end Mr. Harold Cole, State BSU Secretary for North Carolina. The executive council had Mr. Cole as their guest at a luncheon held in the Baptist church Saturday. He was also in charge of the services Sunday. VESPERS: Vespers are held every Wednesday evening at 7. These devotional programs are presented by the students, and everyone is invited to attend. Fine & Industrial Arts At the last meeting of the Fine and Industrial Arts Club activities were planned for the remainder of the quarter. Work on the scrapbook is to begin and it is hoped that all members will take an active interest in this endeavor. A committee has been appointed to work out the Christmas decorations this year. As the upperclassmen know, our club does the campus decorations each Christmas season. Other plans included a possi- Minister's Word By Rev. James T. Burke Due to the unusual length of the article and to the fact that we are only printing four pages, we were forced to leave this feature out of this edition. Our apologies to the Rev. James Burke.

Westminster Fellowship The Westminster Fellowship has been enjoying a series of programs on Life Magazine's film strips on "The Great Religions of the World." After each showing, there has been an interesting discussion. On last Sunday night, November 10, the program consisted of a panel discussion on segregation. The panel was made up of a minister, a doctor, a lawyer, a business man, and a housewife. After a much heated discussion, the majority voted that it was unchristian to have segregation. This program was attended by a large group. The next series of programs will begin this Sunday on the "Christian Religion." We will have a guest speaker from each major denomination. Remember, the Student House is open at all times for all students' use. Student English Seminar The Student English Seminar met Tuesday evening, November 12, in the faculty lounge of Hunter Library. A short business meeting preceeded the program, with the president, Gary Carden, presiding. Beatrice Burrell introduced the guest speaker for the evening, Miss Josephina Niggli.

The talk was interwoven with humorous anecdotes as well as interesting and little-known facts. Her fascinating talk was vigorously applauded by the largest group that has ever' assembled* for the Student Seminar. Miss Lucinda Woodard prepared and served "Sputnik" tea (a splendid concoction, I might say) and tasty cocoa-graham delights as refreshments. The evening was an all-around success, and it is hoped that our future gatherings will meet with such unanimous enjoyment. by Ben Edwards — Editor I got into a discussion with some faculty members and students the other day and we all agreed that this campus is the quietest and the most peaceful that it has been in years. People just seem to be getting along better. The Student- Faculty Judiciary Committee is getting to take it easy for a change. Several people can be thanked for this, I think. Marvin Cole and his fellow student officers are working hard to improve student welfare and he is getting real co-operation from the deans and other administrators. All in all, it's the best year we've had. Of course, something may break loose before this is printed, but up to this point, everything has been going along smooth as silk. Let's keep up the good work. Most of you have been eating the hot biscuits, rolls, and other pastry items that the cafeteria has been dishing out lately. Credit for this goes to Mr. and Mrs. R. A. Ball who took over the baking chores on October 5. The Balls moved here from Waynesville where they were employed at the Piedmont Inn. They have a son in the armed services and a daugh- Only Viceroy gives you 20,000 FOR THAT SM FILTER TRAPS THER TASTE ter, Judy, who is in the fourth grade at the training school. Harley Shelton, WCC's hardworking engineer, came by the office to report on the camp construction and in the course of the conversation we got off on the number of leaves his men were having to rake up. According to Mr. Shelton, back in the days when only about 400 students inhabited these hillsides, they turned the classes out for a day and everyone had a leave-raking good time. Do you reckon it'd work in this day and time? Bob Cloninger, staff photographer, and I really got quite a kick out of making up the "Guess Whose" this time. Last Sunday, I was sitting in Church and casting my eyes across the pews in front of me, I spied a couple of "pony tails." That's when the brain storm hit. Right after lunch, Bob and I got out and corralled the five "pony tails" and proceeded to make the photos. I then crossed my fingers and waited for Bob to develop them. They really turned out better than we had expected. One of two things will happen now. Either every girl on campus is going to start wearing a "pony tail" or every self-respecting horse in Jackson County is going to have its tail done up in a bun. There's a hamburger and a milkshake waiting for the one who can name all five, (first that is.) • It • • • • •*••••••••■•••?. • ••«•••••••••••• »\ • ••••••*•••«•••• Hg • ••••••••••••«••• «V • ••••••••••♦••••a* • ••••••••••••••••ft-, • •••••••••••••••• * . . • ••••••••••••••••a «M >••••••»•* • • • • • • • • • * ■ ••••••■•*••••**•••(-. • •••••< i • • • r - JM . ... •••••••••••( . j ••••••••••■•••r _ •••••••••••••••••••• v.v.v.v.w.'.v.v.v.v.v.v .v.v.v i • 4 • r ~ ■ • « • ' • •••••••••••■•••••I"*1 • ••••«-- • ••••• <••••• i THE VICEROY FILTER These simplified drawings show the difference . . . show that Viceroy's 20,000 filter traps are actually twice as many as the ordinary filter!

NOW AVAILABLE IN NEW CRUSH-PROOF FLIP-OPEN/ ^ BOX >& yPVA^ FAMOUS FAMILIAR PACK Life magazine carries an article in its November 11 issue on why the football "hero" of the past is almost non-existant today and why school spirit seems to be degenerating all over the nation. While we don't have to agree with the writer's view point, reading the article gives one a greater insight into the situation on our campus. I recommend it to you. A student dropped into the office a couple of days ago and suggested that we run a poll in the paper to get student opinion on various subjects. He suggested that the first one be on "the faculty member we would most like to see on the first space ship to the moon." Just for kicks, we'll try it and see how you respond. You may turn the following list into the Carolinian office, the College Shop, or put it in the campus mail box addressed to us. ■—My candidate for the first trip to the moon is: ....

Therefore, the ball game will be'unplayed when the reader sees this article and referencs to it will be correctly in the future tense. Memorial Stadium* on the Western Carolina College campus at Cullowhee will be the scene of the first round of playoffs for the state AA high school football championships when Canton, champions of the Blue Ridge Conference, meet Murphy, Smoky Mountain champs. Last year these same two teams met on the same field and Canton won handily. The Black Bears went on to defeat Charlotte Harding for the Western AA championship and then beat Washington to gain the state crown. This year Canton garnered a 4- 0-1 record in Blue Ridge play while Murphy went undefeated for the season, rolling over everything in sight. Canton would like nothing better than to win over the Smoky Mountain champs because of the controversy over whether the Black Bears were the true champjpns in their league.

The Western Carolinian is Western Carolina University’s student-run newspaper. The paper was published as the Cullowhee Yodel from 1924 to 1931 before changing its name to The Western Carolinian in 1933.
