BSU Fall Retreat Wednesday, S e p t e mber 12, found some 20 members of the executive council of the BSU, with bag and bundle, gathered on the steps of the Baptist church. The occasion was the BSU Fall Retreat. The destination was Lake Lure, N. C, where the group was to enjoy four days of work, play and worship. The Rev. and Mrs. Charles Stanley, Fruitland, N. C, and Mr. and Mrs. Leon Hyder. Henderson- ville, N. C, had opened their cottages to the group for their stay. Dean Harrill, of this college, Miss Miriam Hollis, of the State BSU office in Raleigh, and Mr. Hill of Ednyville, were the guest speakers. Student Director, the Rev. Quen- tin Perreault, with Mr. and Mrs. C. A. Hoyle, were a great help to the group as they planned for the coming year. College Dance Band Richard Trevarthen, band director, has consented to play the piano for the college dance band. It has been uncertain up to now who would replace Tommy Ginn and Mark Rogers. However, with Mr. Trevarthen's e x p e r ience, things are looking better than ever for the band. Mr. Trevarthen has played dance band piano far several well known dance bands—the most favorite being "The Duke Ambassadors." There are a few good prospects to replace Mark Rogers on the sax. When this man: is chosen, the band will be in swing for a full year. Plans are now being made to organize two college bands—a small combo and a full sized orchestra. If anyone is interested in becoming a member of either, contact Gene Ellis, manager. A New Fraternity The Alpha Phi Omega, a national service fraternity composed of college and university men who are or have been previously affiliated with the Boy Scouts of A- merica, would like to organize a chapter on this campus. The purpose of the fraternity as set forth in the National Constitution is "to assemble college men in the fellowship of the Scout Oath and Law, to develop friendship and promote service to humanity." The Alpha Phi Omega renders service in four major fields: to the Student Body and faculty, to; the youth and community, to members of the fraternity, and to the nation as a partitcipating citizen. Requirements for membership are: (1) previous training in Scouting, (2) desire' to render service to others, and (3) satisfactory scholastic standing. The APO was founded at Lafayette College in Eastern Pa-, in December of 1925 and! since that time has grown until today there are over 300 chartered chapters throughout the nation. More than 50,000 men have been affiliated with Alpha Phi Omega since the founding of the first chapter. Ben Edwards of Cullowhee and Tom Speed, District Scout Executive of Asheville, have been selected to help organize, the griiuR on this campus. All men whft would be interested in joining this group are urged to fill out the census card found elsewhere in this paper and place it. in the mail addressed to: Ben Edwards, Campus. Corrections The Western Carolinian reported in its Orientation Issue that the Woman's Athletic Association was a group for physical education majors. We have been informed that this organization is open to all women students. It's a good organization to join. The cafeteria is open from 11:30 a.m. until 1:20 p.m. for lunch on week days, instead of closing at Cars, Traffic Tickets & Students Welcome to W.C.C, a campus which is filled to overflowing with studious, fun-loving, friendly students . . . AND THEIR CARS. Each year we are faced with the problem of more cars appearing on the campus. Each year we are faced with the hassle of registering the newcomers, and keeping our files up to date on the old ones. Won't you please help us? If you have changed cars during the summer; if you have failed to bring your license number up to date; if your sticker or tag is missing, please check with the Secretary of the Health and Safety Committee. One trip may save you many trips . . . and some money. Note the following regulations. All college personnel and students who have automobiles or other motorized vehicles on the campus are required to register them with the Health and Safety Committee. This may be done any week without charge. Students who are planning to bring a car on the campus in the future should obtain a tag and sticker. Tags are to be displayed on the rear license plate, stickers in the rear window. Should either become lost or defaced, it is the responsibility of the operator to replace it immediately. Those who operate vehicles without tags and stickers properly displayed will be fined $1. A tag does not assure one a parking space. It merely insures the privilege of operating that particular vehicle on the campus. One-way drives are indicated by signs. The maximum speed limit on the campus is 20 miles per hour. Drive slower and with caution when approaching intersections or blind curves. Violators of any of the safety driving regulations are not fined but will receive an official warning. If a violator gets a second citation, he will be asked to remove his car from the campus and not drive any vehicle on the campus for at least six months. These violations are cumulative from year to year. In addition to the fines mentioned above, the following penalties are in force on the campus: 1. $1.00 fine for each parking violation. 2. $L.00< fine for running a stop light with three offenses resulting in the kiss of registration privilege. 3. $1.0t> fine for replacement of tag.
