THE ©HIELD 1939 FROM OUR ALUMNAE Our Alumnae Editor wrote to all the girls in the class of 1938, asking for up-to-date reports on their interests and activities. The Staff is grateful to those who responded. After gathering bits of information indirectly concerning those from whom we have not heard, we are able to present the following thumb-nail sketches of the experi- ences of these graduates. MARJORIE BEAM, in a lively and prompt reply to our letter, says that she likes Whitman very much, particularly the limited size of the college, which makes possible a very general par- ticipation in campus activities. Other reports in- form us that JOAN BURMEISTER and MARY NASMYTH pledged Delta Gamma, and that CONSTANCE FRANCKUM pledged Alpha Chi Omega. A number of the girls went south to Mills. Among these are JUDY FRASER, who has been playing tennis and soaking up California sun; VIRGINIA CROWE, who was a scholarship win- ner last year; and MARY JEAN MORRIS, who we understand is also enjoying Mills. MAR- GARET McGINNIS is still using her vitality and talents to advantage. She has been dancing with the Mills group at the San Francisco Fair. A scholarship student this year, she has been granted a re-newal of that scholarship for next year. We had an interesting letter from ANNE MURRAY, who is ar Vassar, tentatively majoring in economics. She is taking an active part in sports and making a remarkable showing in the Senior Dance Group. We noticed in a recent New York TIMES a picture of several girls from this group, and were delighted to recognize ANNE among them. FRANCES YOUNG writes from Wellesley that she is in the choir. Her swimming prowess has evidently not diminished, for she was one of thirty-two girls chosen to swim at the dedication of the lovely new swimming pool. BETTE-JO SIMPSON, a Gamma Phi Beta at the University of Washington, has been having experiences that, as she says, would fill volumes. One exciting event was her selection as one of five to compete for the title of Summer Girl on the campus. SHIRLEY ROBBINS writes that she is enthusi- astic over the University of Washington and fills much of her time with campus activities. She pledged Alpha Epsilon Phi and is an art major. From their Tacoma friends we hear that JEAN HUTCHINSON and MARTHA TURNER are leading an active life at the University of Wash- ington. Both girls pledged Delta Gamma. We saw MARTHA at the Masque Club play in the Great Hall. Another University student is LOIS JANNSEN. We have not seen her this year, but we under- stand rhat she likes college very much. Two inseparabl es, VIRGINIA HUMBIRD and LOIS PARKER, have pledged Sigm Kappa at the University. Parke, an ardent ski fan, has been at Mount Rainier every weekend since February. ANN HUSTON, a Kappa Kappa Gamma at the University, seems devoted to the same sport. We hear that in snatches of time between studies, she has been skiing at Mt. Rainier and at Mt. Baker. Ann, as well as several others of the Uni- versity freshmen alumnae, has visited the Seminary during the year, several of them attending the Frolic. We were thrilled to see them back. PHYLLIS and PATRICIA FRASER are still together, Kappa pledges at the University of Idaho. Phyllis has been very ill, but is now re- covered. CLEO GARBER is attend ing the University of Wisconsin, where she is taking a general course. She enjoys her life tremendously, especially the athletics. ELEANOR GODFREY is at Washington State College. We read in the college paper that she had been nominated by her house, Sigma Kappa, for the campus honor of Beauty Queen. We have had excellent, but entirely official, re- ports of BARBARA ROBERTS ' scholastic achieve- ments at the University of Oregon. JOAN HOPKINS, the cosmopolite of the class of ' 38, is in Europe at present with her sister, Sally. Postcards arrive from her now and then. From Plainfield, New Jersey, we have received a slightly homesick letter from FRANCES SAN- BORN, who is attending Miss Hartridge ' s School. According to Sandy the srudying is terrific but worthwhile. She is taking a preparatory course and plans to enter Vassar next fall.

SPDRTS Spring came quickly, bringing with it the thrill and excitement of Dad ' s Day, Field Day, and May Day. On these occasions we displayed to our parents the skill we had acquired during the year. The climax of the year came with the May Day Banquet, when the winners of the various activi- ties were announced. The Plaque for Sportsman- ship to Mary Turrill; the cup for Swimming to Vera Fraser; for Diving to Jean Bullen; for Tennis Singles to Vera Fraser; for Tennis Doubles to GOLD TEAM BASKETBALL Left to right: Anita Derby, Jean Bullen (captain), Mary Turrill, Mary Kent Hewitt, Valerie Walkinshaw.

Cups and trophies having been awarded, the victors went proudly away. The other girls are looking forward to next year, when they can try again for honors they failed to earn this year.
