  • Students Answer Should Greeks Have Houses? DO YOU FEEL THAT THE TIME HAS COME WHEN WESTERN CAROLINA COLLEGE SHOULD HAVE FRATERNITY HOUSING? WHY? Gary Ramsey—Delta Sigma phi—Class of '64: Definitely. Fraternity housing would not only help the fraternities develop true brotherhood, but it would also held Western Carolina College in solving its ever- present housing problem. Gary Hunt—Theta Xi—Class of '65: Yes. Western Carolina College has grown in all phases of college life to the point that fraternity houses should become a part. We are no longer an overgrown high school. Fraternities have been here since 1957. Why not houses? Don Yarbrough—Delta Sigma Phi—Class of '64: Yes. I feel that if they had had the money they should have had them two years ago. WCC is behind in many things and this is one of them. Bob Mayhew—Kappa Alpha Pi—Class of '65: Yes. I feel that Fraternity housing would alleviate part of the housing problem on campus. Fraternities, to exist as they are meant to, need housing for the close communion and brotherhood which should exist. Merrill Beaver—Tau Kappa Epsilon—Clas of '64: Yes. With houses on this campus the Greek attitudes (both sisterhood and brotherhood) might more deeply be attained, and by the works and deeds of the Greek men and women, perhaps others would more fully realize the close ties which exist in each of the fraternities and sororities. One must realize that from a closely knit large group come the ideas and ways for betterment, and houses would help the Greeks bring these ideas and ways a- bout. Modern Mail-order Catalogues The kerosene-lamp days when the "wish book" occupied a place of honor in farmhouse parlors are gone, but mail-order catalogues are far from dead. Sears, Roebuck & Co. takes in more than a billion dollars a year from catalogue sales; almost a third of Montgomery Ward's business is catalogue orders. The latest Sears catalogue, a plump volume of 1,716 pages, is the largest in the firm's 98-year history. The book lists everything from a 9-cent box of tacks to a $6,500 diamond ring.

She was crowned at the Heart Hop held in the A- merican Legion Hall in Sylva. Jeanette, a lovely six-yead-old, is the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Max Bradley of Cullowhee. Mr. Bradley is an employee of the college, i Jeanette was escorted by Brent Sheddan, son of Mrs. Friday, March 20, 1964 Page 5 Book Review Dennis Scores With Saga On Fabulous Belle Poitrine Miss Heart Princess Sheddan of the Business Department. The two made a charming young couple. Jeanette had this to say about Brent: "Brent was a good escort. He was kind of scared to twist but I wanted to." Jeanette was truly the "Queen of the Ball" for she danced as much as anyone. Jeanette was very grateful for the help she received. "I want to say thank you to all the people who supported me. I was real happy to win and I would like to run again next year." Jeanette's votes netted $128.35 for the Heart Fund. The money will be used to carry on research, educate the public and provide community services to combat heart disease. Each nickle and dime cast for Jeanette will now go to help in the cure of heart disease. Jeanette, along with her brother, Billy, her parents, her friends and everyone who helped her win, has contributed greatly to a worthy cause. Jeanette is a deserving winner, and a lovely princess. Patrick Dennis has written four enormously funny novels His first and most popular is Auntie Mame with which most of us are familiar, either by way of the book itself or the motion picture adaptation. Mr. Dennis is also the author of Around the World With Auntie Mame, Little Me and Genius. Last week I read Mr. Dennis' third novel, Little Me, the story of the "great star of stage, screen and television. Belle Poitrine," and in Little Me, Mr. Dennis has captured the same wonderful humor by which Auntie Mame has kept America holding its sides for the past six years. Like Mame, Belle Poitrine outwardly appears to be an innocent and naive young woman, but inwardly she is a scheming and unscrupulous, but lovable, monster, who carries out her plans to achieve fame and wealth with amazing success. She runs through millions faster than Liz Taylor runs through husbands, but during the 300 pages of the book, Belle manages to marry and dispose of her five husbands, only one of whom she married with his own consent. Three coeds working in Europe EUROPEAN JOBS The trend among students is to work in Europe during the summer. Thousands of jobs (e.g. resort, lifeguard- ing and office work) and travel grants are available to every registered student. Some wages are as high as $400 a month. For a complete prospectus, job and travel grant applications, a $1 ASIS book coupon and handling and airmail charges send $1 to Dept. M, American Student Information Service, 22 Ave. de la Liberte, Luxembourg City, Grand Duchy of Luxembourg. OPPS! WE GOOFED The book review which appeared in the February 28, 1964 issue of The Western Carolinian was written by Bill Smathers. Mr. Smathers did a fine job and deserves the credit. Dr. Marcus Bloch, L-Hy. President Eastern Magical Society P. O. Box 118 New York 9, N. Y. Belle is actually only an exciting woman without fear, and without conscience. When she attempts something that does not come off right, she doesn't complain, nor does she make any effort to explain. She merely turns the page and goes on. She loves people, yet she detests snobs and people from whom she can't get what she wants. Although she Is a schemer, Belle is simple, she Is direct, and she Is practical. She doesn't claim to have all the answers nor does she make any attempt to be perfect. She gets confused and she confuses the people around her. I suppose she really is a little naive, but most important, she like Auntie Mame, LIVES! Although Little Me contains a wealth of hilarious characters, one of the funniest Is Belle's '"Momma" who drives a "fire engine" red Rolls Royce. When Belle is divorced from her second husband, she comes home to Momma and says, "Oh, Momma, I feel so terrible. I've disgraced you. The first divorcee in the family." But good old Momma has a ready answer at hand. "Hell, that's only natural, honey, " she says. "You're the first one of us ever to have been married." The only complaint one might have with the book is that in running through husbands, friends and fortunes Belle's story becomes somewhat disjointed at times, but generally the reader is laughing so hard he doesn't care, especially because of some 150 priceless photographs which coincide with the story. So, in short, Patrick Dennis has done it again! BEATLEMANIA Once upon a fashion time, America looked to England for conservative but beautiful tweeds. Now England's most important fashion export is a quartet of young performers called the "Beatles". i Their infl<-:ice em American fashion will not adhere to the traditional English style. Instead, their likenesses and individual autographs will ornament a whole new exclusive collection of knitwear which they inspired Puritan Fashions Corp. to create for the all-important young market. These include Beatle Sweat- . Tee Shirts, Knit Shirts and even teen age Shift Dresses. Inteinational stars for the past year, the Beatles are currently making their American debut. The furor they are capable of creating: got 0ff to a wild start when 5,000 youngsters greeted their arrival on our shores. Booked for three appearances on the Ed Sullivan show, they also enjoyed the distinction of an appear* ance at Carnegie Hall which was sold out in advance. Separately, the Beatles are known as John Lennon, George: Harrison, Ringo Starr, Paul McCartney. All are in their early twenties. They write, play and sing a "powerhouse" music which is identified as the Mersey sound after the district where it originated. It's not rock 'n roll. It's not rhythm. It'» not blues. Group leader Lennon says, "Our music is just, well our music". Filled with zest and uninhibited good humor, the sound haa; special appeal for the young. Abroad, there are no age barriom to the Beatles' craze.
