SNOWDEN IS PUBLISHED HEARD TUNE IN NAPLES Wrote Words After Returning From Abroad-Mrs. Lock wood Sets to Music Unknown to tnst students on the cam pus is the fact that Carolina has two songs other than the one written by Dr. Wauchope, one by Dr. Reed Smith and the other by Dr. Yates Snowden. Now, 1000 copies of the song have been printed and will be s6ld at the University Canteen. The funds accruing from the sale of each edition is to be retained to defray the expense of publishing the next edition; the balance, to be given to the University Glee Club. The song was inspired while Professor Snowden was in Nap.les and heard the men singing while loading the vessels; the tune was "Santa Lucia." "Professor Sr.owden had never heard the song before and was charmed with the music. He turned to his wife and stated that he was going to write words to this music as a song for the Univer sity. After he returned home and com posed the verses, he wrote to Naples for a copy of 'Santa Lucia.'" He did not realize that he had not used the music as it was written in verse, and when the music was played for him, it did not give the spirit to the lines that he had expected. Mrs.- Leize F. B. Lockwood came to the rescue and has printed the song written in two keys under the same cover and has dedicated it to the Univer sity in appreciation of Professor Snow den's love for the school.
