Euphradian, Societies Ma By NEIL b There are two literary soci phradian society and the Cla student may become a memb societies with little effort. Membership is a privilege i on the campus. Each member can speak out on whatever issue is at hand. Each Tuesday, the members can hear opinions voiced in the nervous voice of a less accomplished new member who felt the need of telling the world how he feels about a subject. This is followed by an indig .nant "Mr. President" from an ac complished young student who speaks in a smooth, reasoning voice in agreement or disagreement with the preceding speaker. First his voice is pleading, then begging, then demanding. Sometimes, tempers flare over some hot issue and harsh words follow. The steady, controlling voice of the presiding officer calls for order. Each new member must make what is called a "maiden speech." For some of these boys, it is their first public speech. Sometimes they forget what they intended to say, become very nervous, look to the ceiling for inspiration, look to the floor for a hole to crawl in, and finally ask for permission to speak at a later date. Some of these same members a few months later are among the most accom plished speakers. Debatable issues almost always lead to a verbal battle between two of the older members who are well versed in the art of speaking and jockeying on the floor. These meetings always offer an interesting and thrilling experience as well as an opportunity for the for Shoes taTlook like newl visit ROBERTS SHOE REPAIRING SERVICE * * * Across From CALDWELL'S 1319 Sumter St. - - a G. 1 'Iad The Key Candy & '1 WHOLESA Candies - Toba 1231-1237 L Columbi John Brown prefers ARROW GORDON OXFORDS i to ANY White Shirts!
