Freshmen Leap From Balcony
As Seniors Sing Toodle4oo
"May God build for you a har-mony"—
the words to one of W.
C.'s loveliest songs rang out and
filled Aycock with that feeling
of wanderful despair at mass
meeting Tuesday night. It was
a feeling common to the members
of all the classes: to the Juniors
It brought home the realization
that next year they will be the
ones down front in black; to the
Sophomores It meant the outside
world is coming still closer, and
to the Freshmen It was a sign
that they would soon be recog-nized
as "human beings." But
most of all it came home to the
Seniors to whom the haze that
surrounds the big wide world has
begun to disappear.
The Class of 1956 listened with
.special interest to the farewell
rpeeches of the Big Three. They
heard Fran Turner's thoughtful
words as she urged the students
to take advantage of the true
values of Woman's College and
warned them with an amusing
James Thurber story to be careful
lest they become like the blood
hound who missed the beauty of
the world. Faye Brown's words,
"Hearts as well as minds have
been broadened by our work"
struck home, and Martha Ful-cher's
wise point that "success
Is not measured by what one
achieves, but by the obstacles one
overcomes" made a special Im-pression
on both the new officers
and the Seniors. They listened
with delight to the witty lyrics
sung to the tune of the familiar
Wlffenpoof Song by 'The Three
Has-beens," and watched as the
new 8. O. A. President. Sadye
Dunn, took the oath of office and
then administered It to the other
new officers.
The Seniors' request for dismis-sal
from the meeting wag quickly
granted by the new president of
S o A . and the class of 1B56
made Its grand exit from the
gathering. "Toodle-ooh. so long,
good bye" drifted Into the audi-torium
from the lobby, the com-mercials
were excused and de-parted,
and then the three mass
dashes were on! Juniors com-peted
In the rush for front row
seats. Sophomores crowded the
aisles to fill the places left vacant
for them by the Juniors, and
Juniors and Sophomores alike
breathed a sigh of relief when
the Freshmen leaped from the
crow's nest seals In the balcony.
The thunder of hurried footsteps
resounded throughout Aycock as
Freshmen gave friendly shoves to
those Just ahead. Order was re-stored,
however, when they found
that the blots of color they could
barely distinguish from the bal-cony
were actually people and
that one can even recognize faces
from the main floor. The three
remaining classes, sad that their
e'ders were missing, but looking
forward to a new and hope-filled
year, raised their voices In the
familiar words of the college
song and realized, as the Seniors
had moments before, that "Our
college days run swiftly by."

early In the year to enlist their
aid In helping the freshmen fully
understand the Honor policy; and
'S> an emphasis to all campus
leaders that there Is a necessary
need for personal Integrity In all
phases of their col I eg t life.
Elizabeth emphasized that the
Honor Board Is especially interest-ed
In upperclassmen living the

students bring any suggestions
