Socialist Talks
I ’It i Kappa Literary Society heard
David Melteynolds, representative of the
Socialist Party, speak at Phi Kappa Hall
Thursday night. He stated the beliefs
and standards of the Socialist to sonic 50
students.
Homer Scarborough, president of Phi
Kappa said, following the meeting, “Phi
Kappa Literary Society does not neces
sarily sympathize with or endorse the
to Phi Kappa
philosophies of our invited guests.
“We do believe, however, that they
should have the right to express these
views and the students of the University
of Georgia should have the opportunity to
hear political and social doctrines which
differ from those of the status quo.”
The next day McRcynolds spoke to
several classes in the political science,
philosophy and economics departments.

SALUTE: CLEM PATTON
From the time he joined Southern Hell in Nashville, (Hem
I’ntlon (H.S.l.10511) Inis continually impressed his man
agement with Ilia engineering ability.
Given the job of designing telephone cable connections
between the central oilier and new residential subdivisions,
(Hem found ways to design connections that expertly met
the engineering problem, and yet, kept coats to a minimum.
Because of such creative engineering talent, Clem was
selected by his company to attend the Telephone Operating
Engineers Training Course at Bell Labs. On completion
of the course, Clem will return to Southern Bell and the
increased responsibilities that await him there.
Clem Patton, like many young engineers, is impatient
to make things happen for his company and himself. There
are few places where such restlessness is more welcomed
or rewarded than in the fast-growing telephone business.

Square Dancing
Gains Popularity
The square dance craze Is |
moving east as rapidly as folk
singing migrated only a few
years ago and as rapidly as
“Hootenanny” did a few
months ago.
The names of the Weavers,
Judy Henake and many others
have risen to fame In connec
tion with the “Hootenanny”
fad.
Square dancing could be
headed for that same popu
larity on college campuses.
The scene of a square dance
features a large darkened
room filled with whirling
couples dressed In loud array.
Twangy guitar music fills the
room. The women are decked
in full, circular skirts, which
sometimes swing slightly above
the knees during a "do-se-do.”
The men are attired in flam
boyant black and gold, with
10-gallon hats and cowboy
boots.
Surprisingly, this scene is
not in a midwestern town like
Midville, Ariz., but In Me
morial Ballroom on the Uni
versity campus.
Every Thursday night mar
ried couples affiliated with the
University ROTC meet in the
spacious ballroom to master
the intricate patterns of basic
square dance steps. The In
structor and caller is Sgt. Walt
Chisholm.
The class is indirectly spon
sored by the Happy Squares, a
local club devoted to square
dancing. The club has a mem
bership of 300. The ROTC
group was organized to meet
the rising interest of young
faculty couples.
The Chisholms, both mem
bers of the Happy Squares,
guide their students through 14
weeks of lessons. After gradu
ating, the students are quali
fied to join any of the three
Athens square dance clubs.
Though the class now con
sists of ROTC faculty, all mar
ried couples on the faculty, as
well as student body, may at
tend the classes.
One lady confessed that she
had given up a PTA meeting
to attend the weekly classes
with her husband. Another—a
New Yorker—attended even
though her husband was out
of town on a business trip. The
attitude of the club members
seems to be an earnest desire
to master the movements and
to have a good time in the
process.
