BEWARE - TRAFFIC REGULATIONS Boundaries Extend From Dick's Gap To Moss' Store Western Carolina College campus is defined as starting at Dick's Gap and extending to Moss' Store. This is the bounds of the regular activity of WCC and her students yet one very active committee at WCC is not limited by campus boundaries. The Health, Safety, and Security Committee is in charge of health, welfare, protection, and sanitation of each and every student of WCC whether on or off campus. The Health, Safety, and Security Committee is represented by the Lab School, the Health Department, the Security Patrol, the cafeteria, the women's dorms, the men's dorms, the faculty, and the students. The assigned functions of the committee vary and are not always constant. At present the immediate objective of the committee is to secure a patrol car which can be msed as an ambulance in emergency situations. Another immediate objective is to secure a side walk to extend from the red light at the post office to the cafeteria. This latter matter has been requisitioned and is now in the hands of the Budget Commission. This year the committee has enforced a new ruling which forbids students to drive on campus or to park on campus, other than dorm parking lots, before 3:30 in the afternoon. The primary reason for this ruling is "you just can's get two pounds of sugar into a one pound bag." Many students have cars on campus and it was felt by the committee that students did not need to drive except going to and from school. (Students need to be reminded that at many schools students use of automobiles is forbidden.) Dr. Quinn Constantz, chairman of the committee, said that 95 per cent of the students "realize readily the need for the rules we have made. The other five per cent are seUf-centered enough to think that the rules are made for others. This causes headaches for everyone." At the last meeting of the Traffic Appeals Committee, a subcommittee of the Health, Safety, and Security Committee there were 20 appeals and 60 per cent of them were granted. The committee feels that a student is inno- Frouiein Enrolled At WCC cent until proven guilty. They feel that students have the right to appeal and should do so if he thinks the ticket he has received is unfair. Jaywalking Presently the committee is worried about the hazard created by unthinking students who cross the road against the red light. Jaywalking could be made into a serious offense if it is not controlled by the students themselves. In the past the committee has found that if a serious problem arises and is taken care of by the students it is handled in an un- embarrassing way but when the students do not take care of their own problems someone has to do it, thus more rules are set up and more penalties are laid out. Very soon the Red Cross Blood- mobile will be visiting our campus again and it will be co-sponsored by the Senate and the Health, Safety, and Security Committee. In the past 200 pints of blood has been the most received in one visit to our campus. This amount is not very representative of 1500 students. Invariably those students who are full of school spirit are almost always civic minded enough to give blood. Those students under the age of 21 should pick up a release to be signed by his parents at the Student Senate Office, the Health, Safety, and Security office in Joyner or at the secretary's office at Reid 14. The Health, Safety, and Security Committee is not using its full power because it does not feel the need to do so. Sometime jn the future it may feel the need to relax some of the rulings it has made; this will be when students realize their need for maturity and a need to make decisions on their own. Until then the Health, Safety, and Security Committee will continue to make decisions, rulings, and penalties for violators. This committee is a member of the National Safety Council. They have obtained a survey of this campus by an expert in the field of safety. They are following his suggestions in part and they know what they are doing. They do not act on impulses. Think before you criticize this committee and you will find yourself on their side in every argument. Not only a newcomer to WCC, but to the United States as well. Miss Helgar Osterloh corn the coast of North Carolina to her island home, which is Westerland, on the Island of Sylt, in northern Germany near the Danish border. New York City was Helgar's port of entry into this country, where she arrived by ship on May 27 of this year. She drove down to Waynesville, and is now taking a secretarial course here at WCC. A trained photographer, Helgar received Professional school training in Germany which is similar to our Vocational schools. Helgar's parents are Mr. and Mrs. Theodor Osterloh, and she has one sister who teaches art in Germany. At present, Helgar lives w^th her uncle, Leo Feichter, the "Lodge-owner," in Waynesville. She has two cousins enrolled at WCC, Ilsa and Rex Feichter. Speaking fluent English is no problem for Helgar, since she took lessons while in school in Germany, and was also aided by English families, who were her neighbors. She likes the mountains here in Western North Carolina, and finds the same regional peculiarities of speech here as she did in Germany. She prefers southern "drawl" speech because it is spoken slowly enough for her to understand. Photography, dancing, and travel are Helgar's most enjoyable future. Her reasons for wanting to become an American citizen? In her own words, "I find the American people friendly and io make me comfortable and at ease." WCC welcomes you, Miss Helgar Osterloh. , wr-gipi^v CAROLINIAN Friday, November 6, 1959 SYLVA PHARMACY Prescription Druggists The Rexall Store JU 6-2312 Sylva, N. C. Journalists And Teachers The time of the young Hemingways floating through successful newspaper careers with nothing as their credentials except raw, undeveloped talent is over. Newspaper publishers and editors have turned eyes toward the classroom. The once despised teacher is now embraced and urged to produce talent educated to the facts of this modern scientific age. One qualification remains from the old school, however, the reporter must be able to write. From the educator's viewpoint, Dr. William G. Carr, executive secretary of the National Education Association says, "There are many programs offered to us Dy outside groups which we have to decline, but I think it is appropriate for us to participate in this activity." He is referring to the awards being made to teachers over the nation to attend classes to learn how to use the newspaper in the classroom. The newspaper, it is hoped, will be taught to the youngsters as a medium of learning besides that extra little polish for those students who possess the desire to participate in a successful newspaper career. The main objective of this program is based on the assumption that in this jet-air age when history books are outdated before they are printed, the newspaper offers an entirely undeveloped field of current history to the student. He can, so to speak, get 'all the news that's fit to print' before it is superseded by another crisis in this our modern age of 'at least a crisis a day'. Helgar Osterloh finds time for THE COFFEE SHOP In Sylva Sandwiches - Short Orders - Meals Prompt, Courteous Service Reasonable Prices hobbies, and she them all. German food seems to be one thing that Helgar doesn't want to get away from. She has no favorite American food, and eats German dishes in the Feichter home. Helgar plans to become a U. S. citizen. She knows no other part of the states, so this will be her home, at least for the foreseeable Kappa Sigma Kappa Final plans for .the social to Qe given in honor of Gamma Tau Fraternity were made at the last meeting of Kappa Sigma Kappa Fraternity on November 3. The party will be given at the college campsite on November 21, as a celebration of the acceptance of Gamma Tau into Delta Sigma Phi National Fraternity. A full social schedule is in the process of being made for winter quarter, with dawn dances, parties, and other socials all on the agenda. Greeks Lead School Spirit By Jane Blankenship The Greek Council acts as a sort of melting pot of ideas com- om the three fraternities and the two sororities of Western ma College. These are Kappa Sigma Kappa, Dave Pearce, President; Gamma Tau, Tom Bridges, President; Tau Kappa Epsilon, Dave Anderson, President; Delta Gamma Phi, Shirley Mastin, President; and Sigma Kappa, Joan Edwards, President. "Skip" Pearce along with two representatives from each fraternity and sorority work to promote school spirit. Keeping in mind the suggestion of Pre-session Conference, the members of the Greek Council discuss methods of stimulating unity among the students of Western Carolina College. The results of the Greek Council's work have been manifested already this year. For the first time members of fraternities and sororities have successfully sat together in a unified body at the football games. From this group has come an enthusiasm which seems to be contagious among the other students. In short this unified body is setting an example of school spirit for others to follow. In other areas the fraternities and sororities work toward the promotion of WCC. Competition during the bloodmobile program insures a greater blood contribution from WCC. By stressing the importance of proper dress, the fraternities and sororities again set an example. At present the Greek Council is considering possible drives or special emphasis weeks to further promote school' spirit and raise the prestige of the college. A suggestion is to have a scheduled clean up drive. Students affiliated with fraternities and sororities encourage the other clubs to carry out the theme of Unification Toward School Spirit. If this pre-session suggestion were to be adopted by all the college organizations there would be no problem of a lack of school spirit.

One thing basic to a democracy is that those who make the laws must abide by them even as do the rest of us of the more common strain. The conclusion: laws of a democracy are laws of common sense. You stop your car at the stop sign to keep from getting run over. Your common sense will not fail you; do not fail it when it tells you to stop. Remember, it is not for naught that the automobile manufacturers make the brake pedal larger than the gas pedal. "An improvement in quality as well as quantity" according to Mr. Trevarthen, director, best describes the marching band of Western Carolina College. Richard Trevarthen came to the WCC campus some "three football seasons ago" and during this time the band has noJceably increased in membership and caliber of performance. The WCC marching band now includes some 36 members and four majorettes. The increased membership of the band has brought bigger and better pre-game and half-time shows. "The band does surprisingly well considering the two 50 minute practice sessions they hold a week." A pre-game show consisting of fanfare, formations, and the Alma Mater is presented before every home ball game. Every half-time show presented by the band involves a great deal of effort and work on the part of the band and the majorettes. New music and formations must be learned and combined successfully on the field. This year the band has presented three very entertaining half-time shows: the "Paris Show," a show entitled "The Pitfalls of Freshmen," and the "American Show" given at the WCC-Lenoir Rhyne game. During the Emory And Henry ball game on November 7, the marching band will present their last half-time performance of the school year. This show is based on the four seasons of the year. During the first formation the band will build a large snow man and then let him melt into the form of a tulip that provides the second formation. But all good things come to an end, and the tulip wilts into a canoe that "cruises VISIT THE CULLOWHEE SUPERETTE Groceries — Feeds — Oil Gas — Frozen Foods Fertilizer OPEN 7 DAYS A WEEK Week Days Sunday 7:30 a.m. — 8 p.m. 11:30 a.m. — 8 p.m. HOMER JONES & SON NOVELTY SWEATERS — BULKY KNITS Canterbury New Emileur Sweaters And Skirts Dyed To Match See These At THE TOWNE SHOP Sylva, N.

After, the presentation of the season formations the band will from a "W" at which time the student body will stand and sing the fight song and the Alma Mater. "Band Day" was sponsored by the WCC marching band on October 17 highlighting the annual homecoming festivities. A total jf 200 musicians from Owen, Canton, Sylva, Robbinsville, and Swain High .Schools participated in the homecoming parade in Sylva and the evening ball game versus East Carolina. The band will make their last public appearance of the quarter on Sunday, November 8, when they perform at the services dedicating the new Sylva Hospital. The closing football season will bring an, end to the activities of the marching band but the show must go on, and at this time Mr. Trevarthen will be looking forward to the organization of the Concert Band. This band will provide music on the WCC campus for the winter and spring quarters. "I'll be glad to have people come down and audition for the concert band." This band will present one concert a quarter and will make a short tour composed of several performances. Pep Band When a sudden burst of jiving music breaks the sound barrier, don't be alarmed. It's just the WCC Pep Band—going Dixieland style. The. members of this booming organization include Ray Haney and his trumpet, Sam Cabe with his sax and clarinet, Johnnie Fowler with his tuba, trumpet player Don Yarborough, and Forrest Galyean blasting away at the drums. The Pep Band provides the music for all bonfire pep rallies, and also plays during football games. School spirit soars to the highest during the band's lively accompaniment of fight yells. After considering the activities and performances of the WCC Marching Band, majorettes, and Pep Band, one readily agrees with Mr. Trevarthen. "There has been quite an improvement in quality as well as quantity."
