Freshman Fattens
Pigs for Pastime
Perhaps not many people think of Berkshire hog raising as a
typical activity for a home economics major, but for Elizabeth Anne
Prough, a first semester student from Sykesville, Md., it has proved
not only an interesting hobby, but has also brought her many stock
show championships, as well as having become a source of profit.
Elizabeth’s latest honor is winning the Maryland 4-H competi-
tion for her hog raising. In No
vember she will go to Chicago for
the national 4-H convention.
This isn’t the first time Eliza
beth and her pigs have won hon
ors. She has been raising Berk
shire swine since 1948, when she
bought four market hogs. Since
then she has won 340 ribbons and
a sizable bank account in prize
money.
At the Maryland State Fair this
year, she won the largest number
of championship ribbons in the
Berkshire class at the swine show.
The Berkshire swine are the
oldest breed in America, and the
oldest registered meat-type swine
in the world; therefore, they are
called the aristocrats of pigs,

By DOTTIE BENNETT
Elizabeth raises them because her
father did and she wants to fol
low in his footsteps.
Elizabeth has trained her pigs
for the show ring, and is careful
not to make pets of them, because
“then they won’t do anything for
you.”
The cane Elizabeth uses to give
commands to her pigs while in
the show ring was made by her
father, whose hobby is making
canes for show ring use.
Her interest in home economics
is also evident, for she makes as
many of her own clothes as pos
sible, and is an expert cook. She
plans to major in home economics
extension and to return to Mary
land to work after she graduates.

Square Dance
‘Class’ Offered
Before the square dance held by the University Christian Asso
ciation at 7 p.m. every Tuesday in the Temporary Union Building
there is a 15-minute period of instruction in the basic techniques of
folk and square dancing. The instructions, given by Kevin Gelder
man, are open to anyone interested in learning to square dance.
Gelderman, a fifth semester business administration major, has
been interested in square dancing
for 12 years and is well on the way
to becoming a professional folk
and square dance leader and call
er. For two years he has been a
member of the Delaware Valley-
Folk and Square Dance Leaders,
a group of semi-professional call
ers . who are working to promote
more and better square dancing
in the Delaware Valley and Phil
adelphia area.
Organized in 1950
This group first came into exis
tence in 1950 and was then made
up of about six or eight callers
and their families. At present
there are about 75 members and
associate members. These mem
bers lead square dances in the
Philadelphia area ,in schools,
church groups, YMCA’s and
YWCA’s, and at private parties.
Anyone who 'is interested in
promoting better square dancing
and is willing to lead or instruct
dancing becomes an associate
member. These associate members
must take a calling test and then
be approved by the members to
receive a full membership, which
includes the privilege of voting
as well as taking part in business
affairs.
The calling test consists of per
forming any four figures the pros
pective member feels he can do
best, and giving instructions in
any one -folk dance.
Meets Every Month
The group holds a business
meeting once a month to discuss
any problems pertinent to square
dancing. The meeting is held at
the home of one of the members,
and a dance is held afterwards.
At the dance a new figure is
taught so that the callers can take
it back to their own groups.
The Delaware Valley organiza
tion holds a folk, and square dance
festival every year in late spring.
Each summer at a camp at Ste
phany, Conn., callers from var
ious sections of the country teach
the calls of their locality for the
other square dance leaders.
The Delaware Valley Folk and
Square Dance Leaders maintain
a business office in Philadelphia,
where callers or instructors can
be obtained for private and pub
lic parties or classes.
