Wamsley as chairman of the cookbook committee. Appointed to work with her are Mrs. Elizabeth Moring Smith, Mrs. Frances Gee and Mrs. Elizabeth Shlplett Jones.

From The Files 30 years ago—1932 A womanless wedding was the main social event of the season as portrayed by an all male cast in the auditorium of the State Teachers College. 10 years ago—1952 A presidential preferential poll showed that Gen. Dwight Elsenhower was Longwood's choice for the next president of the United States. 35 years ago—1927 The equestrain statue of Joan of Arc was presented to Longwood by Alpha Delta Rho the Joan Circle of what Is now Alpha Kappa Gamma. 20 years ago—1942 An air raid practice waa directed to help carry out activities of War Week. 42 years ago—1920 The first issue of the college paper appeared under the heading of "The Dummy", since a name for it had not yet been chosen.
each class is busily preparing their skits and designing t h e float entries. Each class is striving for 100 per cent participation from their members, but students are reminded Ut budget their time wisely so that they can still keep up with their studies as well as help with some phase of the Circus activity.
Surprised Reaction Mary Jane's reaction to being chosen was that of complete surpi'i■'■■ When told that she was to be Animal Trainer, Mary Jare didn't know what the AKG member was talking about, and did not know for several minutes just what were the Implications of what she had been told.

Summer Reading Survey Reveals Popular Books In the iii.il t of summer Jobs, trips, and sleeping many Longwood girls found time to indulge in at least a little summer reading. A recent survey taken to determine what types of books were most popular revealed the following information: Best-Sellers Favored First of all, most girls read novels that they could not find tune to read during the school year. Clearly the most popular book was Harper Lee's To Kill A Mockingbird. More than threefourths of the girls interviewed had read this book. Hawaii and Advise and Consent tied for second place in popularity, and surprisingly, Salinger's Catcher In The Rye occupies third place Other <'ery popular books include The Interns, Light in the Hani and the current best i Hi r Youngblood Hawk. •Reich' Popular At least three girls undertook the long but enjoyable task of reading The Rise and Fall of the Third Reich. All three enJo:, ed the book immensely, and one girl exclaimed, "I'd n mend that book to anyone." Several students deviated a bit from the more popular trends and read short stories and plays. The three most widely read
short story authors are Katherlne Anne Porter, William Faulkner, and Truman Capote, respectively. The short novels of Henry James are also popular around the campus. Ibsen and Tennessee Williams provided enjoyment for those girls who like to read plays. Forget Parallel Only a few really energetic girls used their summer freedom to store up parallel for future use, expecially in history courses and Bible Literature.
Correction The title of last week's "letter to the editor" should have been titled not "Three Deplore Campus Atheism," but "Three Deplore Campus Apathy"—there is obviously, a big difference . . . and I refer you to the following quotation from that article: "Openmindedness is one mark of the mature person . . . indifference, passiveness, have no place in the world of the "Stu (let '.

The parade In Parmville delayj ed their trip to Westhampton College: and when they finally arrived the first team Buffered a loss of 5-0 to the Little Colonels, a semi-professional club team. However, the bad luck alleviated during the M0 ond game against St. Catherines School of Richmond which was won by Longwood 1-0. The final blow of the day was a two-hour wait on the Westhampton campus for a bus to arrive to take the te?.m back to Longwood. In the first game, Longwood fought hard to keep their opponents from scoring, but the strong offensive play of the Little Colonels pushed in three goals during the first half of the game, and they returned in the second half to score two additional goals. Playing for Longwood were Janice Harris, left wing; Lindy Hatch, left inner; Barbara Ragland, center forward; Barbara Gray Martin, right inner; Lurlene Robertson, right wing. The defense consisted of Peg Waldo, left halfback; Barbara Stewart, center halfback; Betty Lou Dunn, right halfback; Judy Wil-; son, left fullback: Earlene Lang, right fullback; and Flossie Barnard, goal keeper.
