Carrollton, Georgia, July 17, 1936.
WORK BEGUN ON
NEW DORMITORY
The new women’s building
vhich is being constructed by the
Smith Construction Company is
progressing rapidly. The contrac
tors believe that this building will
be r eady tor occupancy the first of
October. The building is modern,
fireproof tnd convenient in every
respect. It will accommodate for
ty girls. This building has a large
recreation lobby and hall 36x36
which is an added feature over
the other dormitories on West
Georgia College campus.
Plans are being perfected also
for either anew dining hall or a
library. It is hoped that this build
ing can be completed during the
fall.
Prospects for the fall enroll
ment continue to be good despite
the drought.
PHYSICAL EDUCATION
PROGRAM FILLS NEED
OF EVERY STUDENT
SWIMMING; TAP, SOCIAL AND
FOLK DANCING, LECTURES
INCLUDED IN PROGRAM
In step with present trends in
education, West Georgia College
Summer School has again made
every effort to give its students
as up-to-date a program as possible.
In cooperation with the city of
Carrollton, President I. S. In
gram arranged with Mayor Tom
Luck for West Georgia Col
lege students to have use of the
beautiful new city pool. There are
fifty-five students in the swim
ming class directed by Mr. Bras
well and assisted by Warner Mor
gan and Andrew Floyd. These
students have been given instruc
tion in all the fundamental strokes
of swimming. For those who were
sufficiently advanced the oppor
tunities of diving, and elementary
life-saving principles were offered.
The teaching has been about
eighty per cent effective.
Andrew Floyd has had a special
class in tap dancing of twenty peo
ple. He has done a fine piece of
work.
The social dancing class is a
voluntaiy class and meets on Sat
urday morning. For those who
come it has been the object to
teach the fundamentals of good
dancing, the etiquette of dancing,
and the appreciation of rhythm.
The folk-dancing has been par
ticipated in by about sixty per cent
of the student body. In this work
there has been an effort to combine
the joy of recreation, and at the
same time learn some of the beauty
which is inherent in our folk
dancing.
The lecture periods during the
summer have included administra
tive setups for physical education
and recreation; practical things
which could be done in a health
program; studies in building one’s
own library of useful reference
books; a picture of what the possi
bilities are in building school-com
munity recreation projects, and a
decided emphasis upon the neces
sity of the school making a con
certed effort to study and really
produce improvements upon their
past lip-service of character educa
tion.
During the Summer, the depart
ment was glad to have on the
campus Miss Annie Taylor of the
State Department of Health and
her assistant Miss Harley. The
Summer School group also had the
opportunity to see the picture
sponsored by the State Department
of Health and the Carrollton Lion’s
club on “Malaria”.
I hear that some folks use a fork
in the road for a spoon.

The West Georgian
CARROLLTON HAS BIG
JULY 4TH PROGRAM
(Continued From Page One)
At the end of the game, the
crowd surged around the square
where a public wedding took place,
prior to the awarding of prizes.
Mothers with their hot, sleepy
babies, young girls with their
sun-burned beaux, grandmothers,
grandfathers, brothers, sisters —
everyone was there.
At four o’clock the wedding took
place before the assembled crowd.
The prize for this event was twen
ty-five dollars’ worth of kitchen
utensils, donated by Fishers'.
The stubs of the tickets were
then stirred in a container, and a
small, blindfolded girl drew out
the tickets. The main prize, an
automobile, was won by W. A.
Woods, employee of the Georgia
Power Company. Damon Webb re
ceived fifty dollars for having sold
the lucky ticket. In like manner,
seventy-five other prizes were dis
tributed; these included an electric
range, a radio, a kitchen cabinet,
twenty-five dollars' worth of wear
ing apparel and many other such
desirable things.
This was one of the most com
pletely successful days ever spon
sored in Carrollton. It shows the
fine spirit engendered by the civic
clubs and the splendid co-opera
tion of the entire county.
Leonard Di Vinci was some lover,
They say he spent two years on
Moria Lisa’s lips.—Yellow Jacket.
—Lillian King was being instruct
ed in her duties in the dining hall,
when she interrupted Miss Ken
dricks to ask: “Do you do your
own stretchin' here?” “Do we do
our own—what?” asked the puz
zled dietitian. “Well, what I'm try
ing to find out is, if you do your
own stretchin’ for the dishes at the
table, or do I have to tote ’em
around for you?”
