Third Year Students
Change Profession
The Third Years are still
around, although you may not
see much of them. They have'
laid down their paint brushes,
and picked up nurses caps to
assist Miss McWhorter in her
health clinic. The clinics were
held in the following schools:
Hulett, Sand Hill, Rock Ridge,
Burwell, Pine Grove, Smyrna,
Mt. Zion, Pine View, colored
Villa Rica, and Tallapoosa. Dip
theria toxlod and smallpox vac
cine were given at these clinics.
The Scarecrows then picked up
their paint brushes again and
headed for Oak Mountain. There
they were greeted at the road
by the children, who are always
happy to have visitors. Then be
gan the tedious job of “touching
up” leaked-on walls. The color
was Mr. Shannon’s own mixture,
so it was rather difficult to
match. But if it can be done, the
third years can do it. Oh yes, and
in their spare moments they
pruned the orchard at Talla
poosa, and cleaned the tool house.
Plans Made for Hulett Fair
While the Scarecrows were do
ing their task, the Tapeworms
cheerfully boarded the station
wagon, and headed for Hulett
for regular Tuesday night com
munity meetings planning for
Dependable
the Hulett Fair. This fair was
the first of its kind to be held in
the county. The planning, decor
ating. arrangements, exhibits,
entertainment, and refreshments
were contributed entirely by
community people, with the help
of West Georgia faculty and stu
dents. The fair was a great suc
cess. You should have heard the
howls of West Georgia students
when they got those five pies
and cakes and headed for West
Georgia. And, by the way, the
prize winning cake was made
by our own Mrs. Hazel Phillips.
Everyone knows about and en
joyed the barn dance sponsored
by the Third Years, but every
one doesn’t know of their clean
ing job early Friday morning.
From breakfast till lunch, five
Third Years with the help of
three freshman boys labored!
Community Histories Now Being
Written
To end the quarter for Third
Years, they are now writing his
tories of communities, and evalu
ating themselves (woe is me!).
*And did you know there were
famous journalists writing on
community life and festivals in
the Third Year’s Group.
Miss Sarah Jones, State Libra
rian; and Miss Frances Donavan,
State Supervisor, were the guests
of the Third Year’s Monday and
Tuseday. They visited Talla
poosa, Burwell, Roopville, Sand
Hill and Rock Ridge. Monday
night they attended seminar.
THE WEST GEORGIAN
JUS' SNOOPIN'
Up to the present time the
students have tried to keep the
secret under cover that Maggie
Pearl Botts has been giving an
intensive course in campulso
logy; but the fact has come to
light and we feel that it is our
duty to tell you the many re
sults of her handiwork —the re
sults follow:
We understand that Winford
Cohran lives downstairs in Mel
son hall but it seems that he
finds things much more cozy
“upstairs” when he steps across
the street to Sylbra’s.
You know, Ray Taff says that
he’s calling his sister every time
he picks up the phone, but I
have a sneaking idea that he does
not have that many sisters in
Mandeville.
Says Frances Wilkes: “Where
there’s a WILL there’s a way;”
even if your will is a sailor some
where.
Ruth Land really rakes in the
phone calls over long distance.
What is the technique?
No wonder Carolyn Hollings
worth goes home every week
end. Have you heard about all
the boys in Heard county?
Mildred Forbes, you should
never break up a beautiful ro
mance by skipping the week-end
dances. Dunaway can’t stand
much more.
Have you seen the handsome
portraits that the Dyer twins
have displayed in their room?'
Cadenhead and Davenport do
make a nice couple waltzing.
Quite a change-over from the
“high-class horse opera,” -eh
Sara?
Betty Jo Bonner says it was
tough to crawl out of bed at one
o’clock to answer the phone; but
of course it was all right when
she found out it was D. C. call
ing.
All the girls are beginning to
envy Clinnell Parker because
when she walks by she always
gets the whistles from the boys.
Calling all girls! Calling all
girls! Harry Nix’s ring is missing
from his hand! Now, who is the
“feminine villain,” Bobbie?
Dot Tanner’s, pair of silver
wings are the stuff aren’t they?
Why is Saidee Scott having so
many pictures made? There must
be SOMETHING in the picture
business.
Frances Taff didn’t only rate
a long distance telephone call
over the week-end but a visitor
too.
Surely you now agree that
Maggie Pearl’s students should
have a high grade on their final
test because they are really prac
ticing what she preaches in her
Campusology classes.

Carolyn Mason, freshman from
West Georgia, modeled before

Georgia’s state representative,
