Before the war started girls and boys had to attend a working camp for one year,” explained the refu- gee. “Being a Jew I couldn’t go swimming or dancing, couldn’t attend public socials and was forced to sit alone in the last row at school.” Despite the Nazi prejudices, however, Jenny had many friends among the Aryan Ger- mans, who “were very nice to Here | «disappointed in the sight of the stature of libery and Man- hattan, because it-is over-play- ed so much.” In New York, which she found much larger and noisier than her native Berlin, Jenny, who still speaks with a delight- ful accent, picked up and mas- tered English by association with the populance. She was greatly surprised to see the negroes dressed and living like every one else. For two years she worked in a factory and in an office to support herself and her parents. Last year she attended night school at the City College of New York while working dur- ing the day.

Many of them listened to the Luxem- burg programs. From_ those stations they heard news and foreign music, including Ameri- can favorites such as “Bye, Bye, Blues, and “You Are My Lucky Star.” Before leaving Germany, Jenny and her parents were searched by the Nazi officials and were forced to leave behind many of their personal belong- ings “and of course all our money.” After a ten-day trip from Hamburg to New York during which she suffered from |ship papers and will be a citizen sea sickness, Jenny was “very|in six months, found it rough me and brought themselves in- happy to see land’ but was| See Refugee on Page Four R 23, 1942 Number 2 Albert Spalding, Violinist, To Perform Here Thursday by Margie Dudley Albert Spalding, proclaimed by critics as America’s fore- most violinist, will appear in jconcert in the Wright Auditor- jium next Thursday evening at 18:30, opening the season of en- ;tertainments.

He spent much time at a Scotland port. From this port his ship left with convoys, ever on the alert for German submarines while at sea. He told of his vessel’s very narrow escape on his first convoy trip. Although their convoy was at- tacked several times they reach- ed their destination safely. After the convoy returned to England, the crew was granted a furlough for several days. He said that he was very much im- pressed by the historic ruins in London where buildings were See Experiences on Page Four Activities Begin In Forensic Club For School Year Activities of the Jarvis For- ensic Club began for the school year with a meeting Friday night, October 4. Carlyle Cox, president of the club, announced some plans for the year. The club received a $50 appropria- tion from the budget committee which will be used to finance intercollegiate debates or par- ticipation in forensic tourna- ments. Students who had experience in public speaking in high school, or those who would like to gain experience, are invited to the next meeting of the For- ensic Club. Notices of the time of meetings are posted on the bulletin board. Last year members of the club were host to a delegation from Campbell college.

For a more profound study of Meteorology, Calculus is necessary; this class is for be- ginners. Consequently the books on the subject, which are sug- gested by Dr. Brown for refer- jences, are not addressed to mil- itary pilots or navy men and Calculus is a prerequisite for the course. Twenty boys are enrolled in the class. Literary Societies Stage Week Membership Drive by Margaret Lewis Literary societies began their programs for this year with a week’s membership drive, cli- maxed by two days of clever initiations on October 9 and 10. Each society boasts a greater membership than that of last year. Poe leads with 168 mem- bers, Lanier follows with 133 members, and Emerson has ap- day morning at 7:00 o'clock. Pledges met in Austin for in- structions for the day’s activi- ties. They were ordered to ad- dress all old members as “miss”, and to kneel when they met them saying, “O worthy Poe, I am but a meek and lowly worm,” and to obey any com- mand given. All meals during proximately 85 members. Officers of the Poe are Ann Poythress, president; M ary Long Ford, vice-president; Ha- zel Yelverton, secretary; and Pat Edwards, treasurer; with Mr. R. C. Deal, sponsor. Officers of the Lanier are Dorothy Rae Davis, president; Dorothene Massey, vice-presi- Cent; Aleene Cade, secretary; and Gretchen Webster, treasur- er; chief marshal, Bobbie Lor- raine Pritchard, is a member of the Lanier. Officers of the Emerson are Hilda Martin, president; Carol Leigh Humphries, vice-presi- dent; Billie Bryan, secretary; Saddie Ruth Sutton, treasurer; Miss Velma Lowe, sponsor.

Veronica Lake style, a red ribbon tied in a bow around their necks, and dress in at least four clashing colors with mismatched shoes. They had to whiten their eyebrows and wear rouge in a V shape on their cheeks, and they carried their make-up and coin purses tied in a kerchief at the end of a long stick.

This campus well boost one of the fin- est Music departments in the state, with a very capitable person at the head, and a likewise capitable staff. There is much talk about the need for equipment in various fields on the campus. Likewise the Music department has it’s needs. However, at. the present time there are not only enough in- struments in the department, but many are lying idle in their cabinets upstairs in the Campus Building. Of course, the finest musician would probably have some treuble playing on some of the instruments, but you could do quite well with some. No doubt there are many students who played in their high school band, but who haven’t joined the band here. If you can play, but haven’t joined the band, you aresindirectly keeping others from hear- ing the band in concert. You see, instru- | ments are vey tempermental. They will not play by themselves. They need someone to play them. Along with the instruments go a fine director, a few faithful members, and a large library of music. This year one hour credit is being gi- ven for band membership. Say—won’t you musicians come out from hiding and sit in with us next Wednesday night at 7:00 o'clock? So You Cut Classes? Just exactly what do you come te col- lege for? Do you come to spend all your class time in the “Y” store, or down town | at a movie? Do you come to make friends, | or to catch a husband (or wife). Or do you really come to get an education? It in the latter group. It is an everyday thing to hear some- body say, “I declare I just don’t feel like going to History today.” “I haven’t gotten my math, I don’t think I will go this morn- ing.” “Let’s cut English this afternoon and play cards.” “I’m so tired of studying I could scream, I’m just not going to Science.” Of course there are many, many other rea- sons, excuses and comments. Whether you go to class or not is your own business. We do not mean to be telling you what to do, for all of us have cut classes some time or other. However, real disadvantages of promiscuous class cutting has apparently escaped most students. If your parents are sending you to school, or if you are working your way through, you owe it to them and yourself to make the most of college. Then there is always the possibility of your getting sick and having to cut classes. Maybe you are very healthy and never have to cut classes on that account, but accidents will happen! Some day you may wake up with the flu, or worse still, the mumps.

Miss Emma Hooper, a mem- ber of the faculty advisory com- mittee for the association, gave a most interesting and inspir- ng talk on the work of the asso- ciation.
