We find it present in our friendships, in our classes, in our relationships with the faculty, on the ath- letic field, and in our organizations. lt is symbolic of Salem and all that it means -to us. Such things as honor, truth, consideration, courtesy, sportsmanship, the balance of responsibilities with fun, high ideals, a love of our school-these things make up the Salem Spirit, the Spirit that will not be left behind when we graduate, but that will be a part of us forever. ,, 559 Table of Contents ACADEMIC LIFE CLASSES .

After the school-day is over, we find the Spirit helping faculty members in sponsoring organizations and actitivies, a phase of school life almost as important as teaching.

Visits to the Arts Center have been made by Miss Wheeler's history of art class. Miss Compton and her modern history stu- dents toured a local tobacco factory to gather first-hand information relative to their study of the Industrial Revolution. Bacteria cul- tures and disected animals illustrate the biology class activities. Modern language recordings are helpful to the French and Spanish students. The unusual sounds in the Latin room are efforts of those taking ad- vantage of the new speech class offered by Miss Holcomb. Salem Classe Genius at work! Lani Andrews struggles with a chemistry lab problem. A future homemaker is Ann Crenshaw, who follows the advice of present homemaker, Mrs. Brown. Try this for size. Sallie Meade models an authentic Fiesta jacket for the Spanish class, assisted by Mrs. Lyon. Ciosses The Soiem Spirit ot times becomes ci specialized closs spirit os students look toword their porticulor closs octivi- ties. About the time of Senior ring distribution, the Senior spirit grows overpowering, while during the Freshmon Cornivol, the Freshmen spirit is especioily big ond husky. Through oll, the common Solem Spirit drows the closs spirits together ond mokes them cooperote for their mutuol benefit. xiii NRM 1' 'ff Sf cfs we V X Smswrfsi X -iiiiwiww A 12 Www X' ,JVM 'Saws U'Z'R, 7 df' ztxffszsw EQ? l H MJ-.-,Q :'-lsg-F 71,34 , . gsf- Msg: 3 is ,.-can N.: 4 Hail almighty Seniors!! Taking one of their last walks down these familiar steps are Senior officers Barbara Foard, President, Betty Heekin, Vice-President, Betty Dale Pressly, Secretary, and Sallie Meade, Treasurer. Senior Class The first big Senior event is Senior Day, when they become faculty for a day and rule the school. A skit satirizing the faculty is given in chapel, and that night the Seniors hold court to punish those who failed to show them proper respect during the day. The Seniors get down to work, under Miss Compton's guidance, on their Bazaar held to help Salemites with their Christmas shop- ping. The Christmas candlelight vesper service is conducted by the Seniors. .lust before graduation the faculty are guests at the Senior-Faculty break- fast. The Class Day program, written by Senior Scribbler's Club members, is presented in the May Dell on Graduation Day, and that night to the strains of Pomp and Circumstance the Seniors take tearful leave of the Academy. :go ea'v a?b ' .

Playing Bridge Don't Feel IndividuaI Partying 22 Junior Class The Juniors are responsible for much of the between-meal-eating at Salem. With Miss Palmer's help in filling the coke machine and change box, they manage the Duck Inn until spring vacation, sell soup and buns, refresh- ments for all the school movies, and coffee and doughnuts for Sunday morning sleepyheads. Presenting mov- ies, a fashion show, a skit and selling Christmas cards and tip-ons are a few of the many activities that keep them busy and aid the Juniors in reaching their goal-the most beautiful Junior- Senior ever held at Salem. However, they can hardly keep from hoping that next year's will be its closest rival. With her officers behind her, Mae is ready to tackle those big Junior problems.

Sophomore Class The Sophomore's fullest schedule comes second semester when they bravely challenge the Freshman to the Sophomore-Freshman basketball game. To give the Juniors a chance to put in extra work on the Junior-Senior, and also to prepare themselves for the fol- lowing year, the class takes over the management of the Duck Inn after spring vacation. Not to be outdone by the Juniors, the Sophomores honor the Seniors by giving a tea dance on the afternoon of the Junior-Senior. The highlight of the tea dance is the crown- ing of the Senior Beauty Queen. Dur- ing the year, the Sophomores, with the help of their sponsor, Mrs. Black- well, are responsible for a skit and two movies. esta. Jane Duncan Sparta, N. C.

Instead they start right off raising the flag every morning be- fore breakfast and lowering it in the evening before dark. Their big project for the year, however, is the Freshman Carnival, which they give with the help of their sponsor, Miss Nunn. Built around an attractive theme, such as this year's flower garden, the Carnival makes money for the Freshmen with its penny-pitching contests and shuffle- board games. Sometime during the year the Freshmen provide a movie for the student body and, like the other classes, are responsible for a skit. Pretty as a picture, but a bit more lively. Here we have framed the officers of the Fresh- man class. Left to right they are Jane Richards, President, Lucy Meade, Secretary, Mary Hill Moffit, Vice-President, Nancy Dixon, Treas- urer.

Gathered around President Joanne Musgrave and Miss Brown are: Jane Moore, Senior Counselor, Linda Pettyjohn, Betty Heekin, Margie Smith, Flo Robinson, and Anne Jordan. Standing are Margaret Woolfolk, Senior Counselor and Secretary, Bobbie Plummer, and Barrie Altvater. Student Council When arriving at the Academy the first people a new Salemite sees are the busy Student Council members rushing around, greeting the new girls, showing them their rooms and introducing them to their room- mates. From then on the Student Council, composed ot the student hall representa- tives, the Senior counselors, and the Presi- dent of the student body, plays an important part in the lite ot every girl. Not only does it sponsor such all-school activities as the opening banquet, the Christmas banquet and servants' party, and the Spirit Fire cere- mony at the end of the year, but it also directs activities of service committees. At Council meetings Academy rules are thoughtfully discussed, and Council de- cisions are given to the students at the Wednesday night student body meetings or in the small discussion groups held for the purpose of airing problems. Honor Council A test is being given, and the teacher leaves the room . . . where could that happen but in a place like Salem, where the honor sys- tem really works? Guardians of Salem honor are the members of the Honor Council, con- stantly at work trying to instill in each girl a higher sense of personal integrity. The Council deals particularly with dishonesty in the classrooms and misbehavior in study hall. The Council, composed of three seniors fthe President ot the Student Body as an ex-ofticio memberl, two Juniors, one Sopho- more, one Freshman, a Day Student repre- sentative, and a sponsor, meets whenever necessary after lights to discuss problems. Although the Council does not punish a girl for breaking rules, it does try to give her a clearer understanding of Salem ideals. A matter ot importance is explained to Council members by President Margaret Wooltolk. Concentrating on the question are, left to right: Ann Crenshaw, Joanne Musgrave, Margot Moore, Margaret Wooltolk, Ann Weaver, Barrie Altvater, Lucy Meade, and Reezie Pool.

Secretary Carol Sher- rill is not pictured. Dramalics Club Play acting-a flight of the imagination, a wonderful chance to be someone else-is something everyone indulges in at one time or another. Yet dramatics is not all glamour, it takes hard work behind the scenes and at often uninspired rehearsals to produce the finished production. To reward these efforts the Dramatics Club elects to mem- bership girls who have earned ten points by their work in plays, either as actresses or committee members. Three one-act plays, Joint Owners in Spain, The Flattering Word, and Riders To The Sea, were presented by the Club during the first semester. ln collaboration with the Glee Club the dramatics group presented the annual Christmas pageant, and in the spring, the Gilbert and Sullivan operetta, Pirates of Penzance. The Broad- way play, Alice Sit by the Fire, by J, M. Barrie, was presented in March. Glee Club Waa, waa, waa, waa, waa. No it's not Indians, not a nursery school, but the Glee Club practicing on Tuesday and Friday afternoons. One of Salem's most popular organizations, the Glee Club is made up of almost the entire student body. Under the direction of Mrs. Eugene Jaco- bowsky, the group gave a program at the Patrons' tea in the early fall, a Thanks- giving program, and played an important part in the annual Christmas pageant. Dur- ing the second semester, the Gilbert and Sullivan operetta, Pirates of Penzance, was presented. Also the group was guest choir of the Home Moravian Church and sang in the Commencement recital.

The spring orphans' party is enjoyed both by children from the Orphans' Home and Academy students who are their hostesses for the afternoon. Religious Emphasis Week, sponsored by the group, this year brought to Salem the Rev. J. Walter Dickson, minister of the First Presbyterian Church of Belmont, N. C. Dur- ing his visit Rev. Dickson spoke at chapel, had informal group discussions after dinner, was available during the day for personal conferences, and generally made himself well-liked for his sense of humor as well as his inspiring talks. Scribblefs Club The Scribbler's Club here at Salem is an organization which encourages girls who are talented in creative writing and art to express themselves. Club activities this year include the publication ot the summer bulletin Pencil Shavings and on all-school party given early in the tall. Ot special in- terest was an open interview with three Hollywood personalities, Rod Cameron, Chill Wills, and Alice Kelly which was attended by Evelyn Wyche, Daisy Doughton, and Sallye Long.

Quill Pen Staff A tiny white envelope delivered at a Novem- ber lunch was the first introduction to sev- eral months of flurried activity as members of the i953 Quill Pen Staff for twenty-five girls. Editor Sally Hazen and Business Man- ager Julia Hart were elected last spring, but their staffs were chosen this fall. The Business staff assumes all the finan- cial headaches of the Quill Pen, the Adver- tising staff solicits the ads from Winston- Salem businessmen and Salemites' fathers. Deciding on a theme is the first job of the Editorial staff. The book's layout is planned, page by page, and then the cameras start clicking and the typewriters start pounding in the supreme effort to meet the February deadline. The climax of the staff's work comes at the Senior Farewell Banquet, when the annual, the theme of which has been kept a closely-guarded secret, is presented to the student body. Salem civic leaders step out for a breath of fresh air.

Committee Chairmen The Salem community is led by six com- mittee chairmen, with every student serving on one of these committees. The Service Committee is in charge of the lost and found sales, straightening classrooms, and placing napkin rings. The social Committee plans the birthday banquets, teas, and some Saturday night programs. The Good Will Committee sees that the girls in the infirmary get their books and assignments, and that the kitchenette rules are posted and observed. Arranging chapel programs is the duty of the Program Committee. The Com- munity and World Service Committee collects contributions for the World Stu- dent Service Fund, and sponsors the adop- tion of a foster daughter Cfrom Holland this yearl. The aim of the Standards Committee is to keep the standards of the individual and school on a high level. Dance Committee Those beautiful decorations that we find in the gym on the nights of our formal dances are just one of the things that we can credit to the Dance Committee. These girls must think up a theme for the dance, make the arrange- ments for an orchestra and for refreshments, and send out all the important invitations to those spe- cial fellows. We cannot help but appreciate all their efforts as we dance under soft lights to the strains of good music, and add another wonderful time to our scrapbook of memories. Cinderellas before the ball. Let's hope Prince Charming waits until these members ot the dance committee have converted the gym into a ballroom.

It happened this way. About 75 years ago, the first Chatham built a pint-sized mill on the Yadkin River in North Carolina, did spinning and weaving for neighbors who traded raw wool for jeans and carriage blankets. Good service nurtured good business, so that today Chatham is one of Americas largest pro- ducers of blankets, automotive upholstery and women's coatings. A great mill has replaced the wooden building by the waterfall. But the way Chatham has kept pace with the industry can- not be measured by such a tangible sign. It should be judged, rather, by the conviction shared by four generations of Chatham sons- family pride is a very good guarantee of quality.
