C A M P U S M I R R 0 I What's What With the Freshmen Bettye Washington, '48 Now as the school year draws to a close, each Freshman, once a bubbling, bashful representative of her high school some place in our country, looks around and takes inventory of the past nine months. We find that the Freshmen of ’44-'45 have improved since they have been in the Spelman environment. No longer are they isolated individuals but members of a friendly class. Friendships have grown that will last forever. The most outstanding city-campus friendship is the one between Ella Mae Gaines and Ruth Gandy. Could it he because Ella brings delicacies from the city? Ideal room-mates include such combi nations as Sara Rowe and Gladys Todd (who wear their hair alike), Marjorie Atkinson and Gloria Stalnaker. Josephine Felton and Gwendolyn Fuller. Of course, everyone at Laura Spelman is a good room-mate to all the others. Neatness is another trait developed by the campus crowd. Taking the prize for the most tidy room are Juliette Mel ton and Eunice Carter. But don't we all have neat rooms? All people fond of each other make up their own secret language. Audrey Smith greets Gloria Gastion with an excerpt from Kitty Foyle. (The Frosh have learned to read, too!) “Be' s you got bugs?” “Sure I are." replies Gloko. “Everybody do!” Nicknames include “Chicken” for Thelma Smith. “Bootsie” for Bertha Rob inson, “Marjean” for Maurice Webster, Daisy June for 1 heodosia Washington, who also will answer to “Paramecium.” A call for "Tena gets replies from both Ernestine Jones and Earline Moore.
