Grab your hat and get your coat but hold up a minute.
Don’t go away because the big day is just around the corner.
Plans for the long-awaited homecoming celebration are draw¬
ing to a close. ’Tis just one more week before the old grads
‘ undergrads.
Replies to the homecoming invi¬
tations are coming into the Public
Relations office in a steady stream.
Names of the contestants for Home¬
coming queen have been filed in
the office of .the Dean of Women.
Sororities, fraternities, and other
organizations who wished to com¬
pete in the outdoor display exhi¬
bitions have notified Mrs. Pugh of
their intentions.
Queens for the day will range
from the half-pint size to the
perfect 36. Applications are com¬
ing from parents of children who
wish to vie for the baby king and
baby queen contest.
The football squad will visit Troy
this week end but you can bet that
they will be ready, willing and
raring to go when Millsaps college
invades the campus next Saturday.
The early part of the day will be
taken up with registration of
alumni. Its a safe guess that the
words "Remember when . . .” will
initiate many an interesting con¬
versation during the day. A couple
of fine young cows have kindly
consented to give their all for the
occasion. They may be found at
the Bar-B-Q pit between 12:30 and
2:00 o’clock. Don’t be bashful about
stepping up for your share. Its all
on the house and off the cow.
The Bulldogs will take on the
Millsaps boys In Berry Reid, the
first college game to be played
here since 1940. Kickoff time is
2:00 pm. The day’s activities will
be topped off by the crowning
of Miss Homecoming, 1949 style,
at half-time.
Come one. Come alL Let down
your hair, relax and enjoy your¬
self. Homecoming comes but once
a year. Make the most, of it.
Cuban Tells
Of Vitamin
Miss Heddy Lopez, nutritionist at
Spies clinic in Havana, Cuba, was
guest speaker before the Howard
branch of the American Pharma¬
ceutical Association at a recent
meeting. The group met in the
Science Hall auditorium on Thurs¬
day, November 3, at 11:00
аж
Her talk centered around experi¬
ments with vitamin B-12, a new
drug, and a comparative discussion
of American and Cuban pharma¬
cies. She revealed that Cuban
Apothecaries are controlled by the
government Their location is de¬
termined according to population.
Such stores are only allowed to
sell drugs and hospital supplies.
The pharmacies are permitted to
remain open only a certain number
of hours during the day. Educa¬
tional requirements are about the
same as they are in the U. S. How¬
ever, Cuban high schools offer -a
five year high school course lead¬
ing to pharmacy.
Vitamin B-12 is a recent discov¬
ery of the medical world. It is
used specifically for the treatment
of Addisonian anemia, commonly
known as a degeneration of the
bone marrow. It has proven effec¬
tive when given in very small
doses.
Spies clinics are scattered through
out the nation and near-by foreign
countries. Their founder is Profes¬
sor Spies, scientist professor bio¬
logical chemistry at the University
of Cincinnati.

If you have not seen “Our Town
tonight will be your last chance.
This is perhaps one of the best plays
the Masquers have presented in
some time.
Lance Anderson, aa the Stage
Manager, gave a good performance
as narrator of the story of “Our
Town.” This Is an exceptionally
difficult part since there are long
monologues In whi* the Stage
Manager describes the scenes and
tells what happens In them.
Doris Moore played an outstand¬
ing role as Emily, a young girl in
Grover’s Corners, but her finest
performance came in the third act
when she goes back from her grave
to visit her home as a little girl.
Julius Jones, as George Gibbs,
put on a convincing performance.
Jean Jacks played Mrs. Gibbs ex¬
tremely well and Mary Olive Mc-
Phaul was perfectly cast in the role
of Mrs. Webb. Good performances
were given by Hugh Morris and
Buzz Busbin as Mr. Webb and Mr.
Gibbs respectively.
