GRAHAM, Busitiess Manager tLm-c THIS T.J-ITI-C HDNDRING MISS MARIAN JANE CRAWFORD A graduate of the famous Webb School and Randolph-Macon, a Phi Bete, and the holder of a Master ' s Degree from Southern Methodist Uni- versity, Miss Crawford came to Birmingham-Southern College in 1939 as Secretary to the President and Instructor in Latin. Indefatigably, since the time she has served as Acting Dean of Women for three summers. Instructor of Algebra, guardian of the campus ac- tivities calendar, and counsellor par excellence to students. Her friendly graciousness, together with her natural dignity and un- canny initiative, go to make her the ideal co-ordinator of the intricate affairs of the office of a busy college president. Her sympathetic ap- proach to the individual needs of her students, plus her delightful sense of humor, make her classes stimulating and interesting. This is our humble way of expressing our sincere appreciation to her. . . . TO WHOM WE fjQ: fircf L-U ' DEDICATE THIS BOOK N D MORE tLiTL J ald ike • • Dr. George R.

Early in the year, this group entertained at the tradi- tional Sunday Afternoon Tea in Stock- ham. Among projects for the year have been the fostering of sales of stamps for the War Relief Drives, the establishing of a blood bank on campus, and the insti- gation of a full-fledged chapter of Red Cross on the Hilltop. Members worked arduously, setting up files for activities-point systems, and the council collaborated to sponsor such out- standing events as Sadie Hawkins ' Day, Cat ' s Paw, and May Day. Perhaps the most outstanding single con- tribution the council made during the year was the clearing up of the constitu- tion as to its relationship with the Publi- cations Board in a joint meeting. During the Summer and Fall Quarters, versatile Patsy Kirkpatrick was at the helm of our governing body. Sponsored by the executive body, the Honor Council, now well-established, functioned smoothly and adequately. Led by Cissie Jennings, this group aided in orientation of new students. 38 GOVERNMENT THE EXECUTIVE COUNCIL OFFICERS Pvci ' iiloit III I he SI mini!

Graham e This year the staff of ' Southern Accent assumed a never- say-die attitude, ordered more aspirin, and undertook to edit a college annual despite, as Dr. Parks would say, vari ous and sundry handicaps. It was not until near the end of the Fall Quarter that the student body decided definitely to have an annual for ' 44. Finally, after lengthy discussions and numerous plans, to say nothing of a few fallings-out, a belated election was held for editor and business manager. Still beaming over their election, these new officers launched their program with enthusiasm, only to find themselves confronted with what then seemed insurmountable ob- stacles. First, and naturally most important, was the problem of drastically curtailed finances. Furthermore, at least six months of the year had elapsed, and nothing had been started. Determined not to be outdone, the editor made dozens of visits to engravers, printers, and photographers. Everywhere he met the same problem: increased prices, rapidly di- menishing staffs, not enough time. Du_ring this hectic period neither the clock nor calendar seemed the least in- clined to retard their stealthy, relentless progress. After ruthless cutting of budgets, anticipated costs were brought down to an incredible minimum. Because business was rushing, most concerns forewent the opportunity of advertising through our book, thereby depriving us of additional income. As an eleventh hour measure of safety, the student body generously voted to give an extra dollar per student during the Spring Quarter. Th:s last move took care of most of the financial worries, leaving only the element of time. So obsessed with the pressure of time did the staff become that it decided time , of which there was so little, should be the theme for the publication. And so it became, de- picting the nostalgic, hurried days of our lives — the tmie we would seek to to hold but cannot, h this our time we have laughed and loved and lived, and, not infrequently, sighed. Now, in retrospection, we present it to you through your 1944 ' Southern Accent. 40 ' SOUTHERN ACCENT EI] I Til II I AL AFF Etlitor .

Watts, Ross, Holt, Smith, Graham OL HILLTOP NEWS The second woman ever to become edi- tor of the Hilltop rag, La Crumpton car- ried on the journalistic traditions set up by her predecessor. Along with her co- horts she flooded the campus with as much news as Johnson could go out and get the money for printing. All in all, not- withstanding the practically all-girl cast, this publication put on a show definitely in keeping with our time. There were periods when we did without our paper, just as we often did without butter, or gasoline. But we sorta grew accustomed to that. Since all (not just the most promising) student photographic fiends had gone away to war (or, worse, to marriage). Crump ' did the only feasible thing and molted into that wierd combination among journalists known as editor-pho- tographer. Of course, never having been a photographer before, she had to do a lotta cramming and experimenting. But the result was that she produced many pictvires which would have drawn for her a $50-per-week salary at BMP or somewhere. Even during ' ' the duration , Johnson managed somehow to get the Scrooges to shell out the sheckles. Some folks charged it up to womanly charm, others to her industriousness. But we knew all the time it was due to her thorough founda- tion in the classics that she was able to exercise the mythical touch of Midas. With everything on the accelerated pro- gram (which somebody once inadvert- antly called the exhilarating program ) , there were plenty of times when people were just too busy to make news. But the HTN covered the home front on ev- erything from days of May and Sadie to news of dirt and datey. It ' s probably a good thing there are some experienced women journalists on the Hill now, what with next year and the disheartening prospect of even fewer men students.

Under the famous Andersonian touch, beautifully accompanied by the inimit- able Ford, the choir has made numerous appearances, including engagements with the North Alabama Conference of the Methodist Church, a Fall Concert, a jam-up Christmas program at both Mc- Coy and the First Methodist Churches ' Birmingham Music Teachers ' Associa- tion, Alabama State Music Teachers ' As- sociation, Alabama Educational Associa- tion, Jasper First Methodist Church (ah, memorable trip! ah chartered bus! ah, fun!), weekly Convocation programs, a Spring Concert, the highly successful Music Demonstration School, Sunday afternoons at the local USO, just to name a few. Going beyond the line of duty, Directors Anderson and Ford have won hundreds of friends through their generous contri- butions of time and effort in behalf of the Air Crew Students of the AAF sta- tioned on our campus, to say nothing of campus parties. Cat ' s Paw, Sadie Haw- kins ' Day, May Day, and the whole gamut of extracurricular activities. Through Mr. Anderson ' s excellent guid- ance, students catch a glimpse of the vast store of pleasure in music of all types. His magnetic personahty and contagious enthusiasm, coupled with his keen inter- est in each individual student, make it possible for Mr. Anderson to mold from a group of average college-student voices a unified, atristic choral group.

Yet upon this group falls the responsibility of co-ordi- nating all religious organizations and their activities. Those who are not familiar with the work of the Religious Council probably do not know of the long sessions which are held long before the year gets under way in an effort to make it possible for our campus to have a well-integrated, interesting, educational, and still appeal- ing, program of religious work. Nor do they know of the countless conferences with advisors, speakers, ministers, law- yers, doctors, students, which make it possible for all phases of students ' reli- gious needs to be reached on our campus.

To the casual student this might seem something that happens every Spring. But not so. Just as an efficiently directed Easter Program culminates with an effective Easter service because of long hovu ' s spent in planning, experimenting, and preparing, so this Religious Empha- sis Week is the result of careful, detailed planning, of tedious committee meetings, of persistent appeals to campus leaders for assistance, of back-breaking ordeals with mimeograph and duplicating ma- chines, of an insatiable desire to present in concentrated but palatable form for one week specific accent upon religion as a way of life in a meaningful and ef- fective manner — all these things, and then some. Led this year by Joe Blair, the Council assisted with the Alabama Student Con- ference at Jacksonville State Teachers ' College, and presented its annual Spring Retreat, in addition to the Religious Em- phasis Week and routine work of the organization.

Included in activities for the year were participation in orientation weeks, teas, parties. Red Cross and War Bond Drives, and the all-important Religious Empha- sis Week and Spring Retreat.

After the establishment of the campus chapter, members of the Freshman Com- mission arranged a musical program for the entertainment of knitters.

With Hurlbert and Evans on the Hill- top News staff, Tiller as vice president of Skull Bones, Lyle as president of Theta Sigma Lambda, and Evans and Crowe working with The Cellar, just to give you a rough idea, they ' ve had a finger in about all the pies on campus. Early in the year, prexy Lyle joined the ranks of recognized BMOC ' s, when he began dangling his ODK key. Predominant in Theta Chi Delta, Inter- fraternity Council, and other organizations, Paul quietly and effectively has made a valuable contribu- tion to campus life. With Ritchie managing the house and wrangling with grocers over points and stuff, it is reported that many a fine dinner passed over the festive board dur- ing the year. Brother Culwell, now with the Good Ship Howard, has been nothing short of spectacular in football on the East Lake gridiron; Brother Collier has been con- spicuous on the same campus for other reasons. Well-represented in military service, the ATO ' s are scattered to the far corners of the globe, but those still here are carrying on in an admirable way the fine traditions that have been theirs for years. 54 Crowi-,, IIurlbert, Tiller, Lyll, Gore, Evans aoayna (Id eta d eta kapter Jack Crowe Frederick Evans Jack Gore MEMBERS Don Hurlbert Paul Lyle Ralph Tiller Dave Almon Charles Baker Bobby Bowen Bill Brown Don Brush Felton Collier Hopkins Colmant Fred Culwell IN MILITARY SERVICE Bob Grace Perry Hooper John Robert Hughes Raeford Files B.

Ably led by the ubiquitous J- Bert, who is listed in colleges ' Who ' s Who, they have participated in nearly every activity on campus. Smith himself was a shining light on Sadie Hawkins Day, when he appeared bedecked in authentic Zoot Suit and served as genial master of ceremonies. Later in the year he served in a similar capacity at the fa- mous Pirate ' s Party. A perpetual menace to the la- dies ' hearts, Smith climaxed the year by finding a single brand on which to lavish his attentions. Every inch of him friendliness, Jimmy Holmquist was next BMOC in line. Ruhng with tact and effi- ciency from his post as treasurer of the Executive Council, Jimmy still found time to serve on numerous committees, sell war stamps, aid in Red Cross drives. prepare for Sadie Hawkins Day and in general make valuable contributions to the Hilltop. Proof that not all service goes unrewarded, Holmquist was signally honored by the Oracle of ODK in the Spring. Just for good measure, he took over the business manager- ship of next year ' s ' Son f hern Accent. Although extra-curricular things on campus kept them busy most of the time. Delta Sig ' s still found time for regular monthly meetings, monthly dinners (gad, they musta got pow ' ful hungry in-between- times!), and a gala Founders Day Banquet. The Chapter felt keenly the loss of their Brother, Fac- ulty Member Dr. R. S. Poor, who left Enon Ridge at the end of the year to become Dean of the Graduate School at Auburn. They are glad, though, to have fun-loving Mr. Glenn still on hand to carry on the good work. With alumni, members, and pledges scattered from Savannah to Suez, the Delta Sig ' s certainly are par- ticipating in the war effort in a meaningful way. 56 as eta Jjeita kaptey pi Jake Crenshaw Dayton Foley Pete Ford Dr. R.

These new brothers represent valuable additions to the chapter, and the boys have plenty of reason to gloat. With everything else just about overshadowed by the traditional Christmas banquet, social life was nonetheless at a standstill. It included a whizz-bang Duffy ' s Tavern party given by the pledges for the actives, a banquet for the Army-Navy brothers, a house-unwarming (night before moving), and the customary rush parties and house gatherings. The boys forfeited their house in February, which meant giving up gracious Mrs. Victor R. White, Sr., housemother. This was a distinct loss, and the Grand Ole Gang is eagerly looking for- ward to the day when thev can swap their apartment on Arka- delphia for a new house and have Mrs. White with them again. What with Porterfield, D. Cleveland, Dempsey, Fletcher, Gore. Preston Locke, Hunter, and dozens of others in various branches of military service KA ' s feel the war is under pretty good guid- ance, particularly since Generals Marshall and Patton are both brothers. 58 Jones, Cannon and Dean, Holt, Abernathy, Graham, Cleveland, Shores, Elliott Troxwell, Stallings, Lawson, Davies, Logan, Watts, Bur land, McCoy, Walters, Hollums Pki a a pier ip Bobby Abernathy Buddy Burland Charles Campbell Bill Cannon Bob Cleveland Frank Davies MEMBERS Kyle Elliott John W.

He was a cinch for the place, as has been seen in the work he began two years ago to navigate the Shield- and-Diamond boys from their position as the small- est Greek group on the Hill to the next-to-the-largest one. Subsequent prexies Rex Windham, Hillie Red- dick, and Mac Gibbs all did swell jobs in carrying on the groundwork laid by Deacon-trained Ellis, but to him should go the laurels for having visualized years ago what we now see as an actuality. One of the only two frat groups to have full teams, the Pike ' s have participated prominently in football, volleyball, badminton, basketball, and paddleball. Coming out on top scholastically, they not only re- ceived recognition locally but nationally as well, bemg awarded a scholarship placque by their national of- fice. Lanky Joe Blair presided over Chi Sig and guided the Religious Council for the year, serving as prexy of both groups. Corpuscles Blood was Chairman of the Men ' s Division of the Executive Council and did an outstanding piece of work. Genial prexy Mac Gibbs was president of the Senior Class, and about a dozen of the good brothers swelled the ranks of the Choir. Never lagging socially, the boys found time some- where for parties at the house (one of the last to be kept), wiener roasts, a Founder ' s Day Banquet, and a house party at Double Oak. Their brothers are uniformed in all branches of the service. Most of them who, only last year, sauntered leisurely across the quadrangle, are now flying, sail- ing, driving, fighting. 60 Wi ' «• Garrett, Short, Fealy, Gibbs, Walker, Cook FiQUETT, Keith, Blackburn, Blair, Brittain, Hoene, Williams UJeua L ki a pier ip MEMBERS Benton Blackburn Jimmy Brittain Clyde Cook Jack Fealy Emmett Gibbs Mac Gibbs Louis Hoene Jack Short Alex Walker Jimmy Williams Jimmy Ault PLEDGES Leonard Blood Lawrence Fiquette BUENA AVANT A.

Under the enthusiastic leadership of dynamic, genial Peck Whitcomb the lads copped an appreciable share of honors and had an all-round good time to boot. Whitcomb headed the ill-fated Inter-Fraternity Council, with which he did an excellent job despite a bit of ruthlessness toward the end of the year. To complete his calendar, gregarious (or is it ' GERA- ous?) Peck of ' s bad boy fame was prexy of Skull Bones, a neat high-power politico, tapped by ODK, and — the $64 award — Salutatorian of the Class of 1944. Discovering vast, latent capacities for litera- ture, he also was one of most frequent caller at The Cellar, where he took Dr. Ab ' at his word and did his best to curl up and sleep in every ash tray to be found. When not in class, he usually could be reached by dialing 4-4078. Lanky George Cochran did his bit to keep the YM functioning, alterating this work with Bookstore jabber and chemistry sessions. His and Peck ' s con- tributions Sadie Hawkins ' Day and the Pirate Party will long be remembered. Homer Hurd ' s work with the Executive Council was especially outstanding. His letters to the editor and his promotion of war stamp sales are just two of the phases of this fine job.

This has been a full year for Pan-Fiellenic, what with USO doings, rush rules to be revised, scholarship cups to be given, and general supervisory work to be done for sororities. The governing body of all women ' s Greek groups on campus, Pan-Hellenic sent sor- ority girls to assist in entertaining at USO seven days a week. In connection with the revision of rush rules, they are to be commended for abolishing the dread sil- ence of former rush weeks and for mak- ing it possible for our organizations to comply with National Pan-Hellenic ' s re- quirements.

True to the principle upon which they were original- ly founded, the girls walked off with the Inter-Sor- ority Sing cup last spring, hands down. Directed by petite Virginia Boteler, the presentation of the senti- mental Night and Day and the haunting Lyre of Alpha Chi was something to remember. Always campus-spirited, the Alpha Chi ' s had girls in all functions on Enon Ridge. Prexy Dot Garrett was vice president of YWCA, and jovial Betty Joyce Stearns served on the Freshman Commission. Nina Mae Pierson was vice president of Chi Nu Tau, of which Alma Thomas and June Wright were mem- bers also. Senorita Norment swung the gavel for Entre Amigos, and counted Sybil Little, Alice South- ard, Barbara Jones, and Barbara Minter among her members. In KDE, Garrett was prexy, and Dot Moore and Gibson were members, while Boteler was secre- tary of Pan Hellenic and, of course, Garrett was a member. Never lacking for beauty, the girls had a full-page lass in that section of this book. . . Virginia Boteler. With six representatives in the choir, they more than did their share by their heritage of music, and, to round out the picture, Berthon belonged to the French Club, and Mimi Gibson was a Delta Phi Alpha. Contributing in an important way to the work of the local chapter of the Red Cross, the sorority listed a half dozen members in key positions with that orga- nization. So, you see, although basically sweet, cultured ladies. Alpha Chi ' s have also been industrious, enthusiastic, and interested in all phases of college life.

Smitty was also treasurer of Mortar Board, member of Phi Beta Kappa, listed in Who ' s Who Among Students, president of the college Red Cross chapter, member of the Student Life Committee and the Religious Coun- cil. Smitty was certainly the most outstanding girl on the Hill this year, and she has held every major woman ' s office on the campus. Brains, ability, and personality all entitle her to a place among Southern ' s all-time great. But Smitty was not the only AOPi to capture honors on the campus, scholastically or otherwise, for book-juggler Annie Francoise Davis is a Phi Bete and Mortar Board activities chairman, a member of the Honor Council and Phi Sigma Tota. YWCA boasts prexy Smitty , vice-prexy Annie Frances Davis, and minutes-keeper Bess Malone; cabinet members numbered Thelma Noel and Margaret Brasfield amongst them; the Fresh- man Commission president was Loretta Graves; Ruth Sherrod, Lenora Carter, and Zelda Thompson were other members of the commission. Fortune-teller Ann Brandon was an Executive Council member and prexy of Pi Delta Psi. Amazons had among its members this year Gene Smith, secretary, Ann Brandon, and Bess Malone. Tiny Carter, Ruth Sherrod, Loretta Graves, and Noel Junior have had a good time sitting together in Chi Sigma Phi assemblies. The same thing happens when KDE meets — it ' s just like an AOPi get-together , with Smitty ' ' as vice-prexy, Malone as treasurer, and future educators Jo Bowling, Ann Anderson, Betty Keener, Brandon, and Davis. Mu Alpha ' s vice president has been Jo Bowling, with Ruth Sher- rod and the Countess , Nancy Woodson, helping out. Nurr,ber- ing among students in the choir are Idamae Howard, Jo Bowling, and Margaret Moore. Internationally inclined were Gene Smith, Annie Frances Davis, and Jeanne Wingfield, members of Dr. Sensabaugh ' s International Relations Club. Wingfield was also chairman of the Canteen Corps of our Red Cross Chapter. The otherwise part might well be sports, for the AOPi ' s, vying for top honor points, were outstanding in that field. Under the leadership of Sports Manager Dot Johnson, they walked away with the bowling cup, being undefeated. Johnson is a member of the Intramural Board and the Phys Ed Club. Incidentally, Johnson and Ann Anderson were among the Outstanding Women Athletes on campus. Social Life on the Hilltop con- sisted mainly of playing bridge in the bookstore, and, of course, the AOPi ' s were well-represented in this activity by Wingfield, Howard, Woodson, Johnson, Brasfield, Woods, Fields, and manv others. Outside of hanging around Deadon ' s Den the AOPi ' s supper-in-the-room habits filled the war-time social books for campus-doings. Off campus they kept up their morale by parties at the Highland Terrace Garden, Countess Woodson ' s, and Jean Hart ' s homes. December was filled with fun and frolic, beginning with a Founder ' s Day Banquet and several Christmas parties. 68 m: Stephenson, Jamison, Hart, Fields, Starcher, Sherrod Howard, Long, Keener, Davis, Woodson, Smith, Brandon, McCoy, Wingfield, Bowling, T.

Ruth Atkinson, the chapter ' s recording sec- retary, is also vice president of Theta Sigma Lambda and Treasurer of Theta Chi Delta, honorary chemical society, while Emily Blake, corresponding secretary, is a member of Tau Kappa Alpha, treasurer of Mu Alpha, and a newly-tapped member of Mortar Board, as well as a member of the campus ' new organization, Omicron Mu Kappa. On the musical end of things, Anne Jones, Emily Blake, and Martha Banks are members of the choir. Anne is a star pupil at the conservatory, where she studies with Dr. Whittmg- ton, and Martha and Emily are members of the H 7 - lop News Staff. Emily is assistant editor of the 1944 ' Soiifbeni Accent. Kathleen Ellison is on the Fresh- Atkinson, and Emily Blake are all members of the black-stockinged Amazons. Despite the shortage of males this season, the Gamma Phi ' s have managed to keep things going in a social way with numbers of dinner parties, hay rides, picture show parties, and a bowling party after which mem- bers and pledges spent the night at Mary Virginia Stallworth ' s house and rubbed one another down with alcohol ( ! ) . Patriotic, the Gamma Phi ' s have done quite a bit of knitting for the Red Cross, and many of the mem- bers are enrolled in the Red Cross classes on the Hill- top. The Gamma Phi ' s have their own Bond Booth in the Alabama Theatre on Sunday afternoons, and in one afternoon they rang up sales amounting to over two thousand dollars. Joining the ranks of college women engaged to men in the service are Imogene Macormick and Emily Blake. Also Anne Jones will be seen sporting a Pi Kappa Phi pin . . . and beaming. 70 Greene, McCormack, Stallworth, Henckell, Vann, Banks, Atkinson, Blake, Davis, Jones, Ingram ipka Kko L kapter MEMBERS Ruth Atkinson Martha Banks Emily Blake Kathryn Davis Kathleen Ellison Frances Henckell Martha Owen Ingram Imogens McCormack Gloria Norman Mary Claude Sellers Mary Virginia Stallworth Catherine Thomas Dorothy Vann Mary Lou Vann Mary Louise Greeni Anne Jones 71 KAPPA DELTA Under Queenie Jones ' dynamic leadership, the KA ' s have en- joyed one of the most successful years in their long history on the Hilltop. Pledging ten lassies in the fall, they wound up rush season with a banquet at Tom ' s Steak House (that was in the days of steaks . . . remember?) and a raft of parties honor- ing the new pledglings. A Christmas banquet at the Molton, complete with a tree and gifts, vied with the others for clamour. Starting off the new year right, they indulged in all sorts of food orgies, from breakfasts-hikes to swank dinner doings at the Redmont. Traditionally the sports stars of the Hellenistic wom- en on campus, the KA ' s copped the volleyball, basketball, and badminton cups to add to their voluminous collection, placing Q. Jones and Moe Owen in the badminton race as finalists. Not to shirk work, the gals came through in second place in the scholarship tourney, averaging 1.6, with Betty Brown joining the ranks of Alpha Lambda Delta. Bubbling over with energy, the dames populated nearly every place in town, from the Red Cross headquarters both downtown and on campus, the blood donation center, to the USO and Officers ' Club. They gave magazine subscriptions to the USO and financed several hospital beds. Placing six out of the ten high point women in intramurals, they added further to their prowress in that sphere. Boasting three scholarship winners, Anne Smith, Betty Ogletree, and Ann Ogletree, the gals also gloat over Jane Scruggs (of Latin and French fame) who was one of three on the committee instigating and conducting the Cellar. Audrey Peeples helped with this, too.

Sadie Hawkins ' Day found the KA ' s not only interested and participating, but planning and running the activities. Devil Norton arranged the program, Wita had charge of women ' s competition for the day, and Anne Owen and Ann (monotonous, anne ' t ' it!) Ogletree were more than active.

We ' ll try to tell you as much as the time and space will allow, though. Yeah, you guessed it . . . the Pi Phi ' s kept the scholar- ship honors again. Cornelia Banks was prexy of Mor- tar Board, Mary Richardson was vice president, and Ann Blevins was treasurer. Some people looked ask- ance at this majority (which included more than the officers), when three more sisters were added to the wearers-of-the-flat-hat this year, but we know that was silly. With two of the sistern flaunting Phi Bete keys, and three still classified as Alpha Lambda Delta ' s, the Angel ' s closed the current chapter on their scholastics. The muchly disguised gals were prominent on cam- pus otherwise, as many of them have no doubt told you. Six of them (count ' em) were listed in Who ' s Who Among Students, three are portrayed in the beauty section of this book, and six flexed their bi- ceps on the quadrangle; three consented to train as nurses ' aides (remember how pretty Mary Richard- son was in her uniform?), and two sat on the honor council (no casualties reported therefrom) . Richard- son courageously tried to fill Fiatchers ' shoes as prexy of Mu Alpha, while Sebree walked away with honors as Miss Sadie Fiawkins of ' 44. All work and no play makes Jane ... or something like that . . . said these femmes, so they pitched some of their notorious cookie shines, a circus party, prac- ticed cutting up chicken just-among-the-gang, do- nated blood, knitted for the service guys. The last item on their long list was something to the effect that alumna Betty Caldwell is a member of this year ' s debutante club. Although we fail to see the connection between this juicy morsel of news and the activities of the local chapter, we present it here for what it ' s worth. After all, how many college sorori- ties can practically assure a lady-in-waiting of a suc- cessful coming-out? 74 pr vVp ' W vit ' Morgan, Rogers, Gallagher, Buck, Jennings, Gragg, Davis, Kidd, Richardson, Sebree, M Thompson Akeroyd, McDevitt, Biard, Cathey, Hornsby, Martin, Meacham, E.

Never grabbing for publicity of plaudettes, these admirable girls have put their greatest efforts into everything vitally con- cerning campus life as a whole, rather than as re- volving around their own group in particular. Bolin shone as a staunch member of the Intramural Board, an Amazon, a member of Chi Nu Tau, and a Pan-Hellenic, and Crissinger specialized in music through the orchestra and Mu Alpha, still finding time to help Sister Bolin with Pan-Hellenic and Amazons, while Griffith served as secretary-treas- urer of Rusurbe and headed a committee planning the Pirate party which proved so mvxch fun. Ha- good, president of the pledge group, also weilded the gavel for Rusurbe. To complete the pledge group, Anna Jo Byrd was vice president, Beulah Skelton was secretary, and Peggy Justin was treasurer. Never lacking for originality or ingenuity, the Theta U ' s ranged in social functions all the way from buffet suppers, valentine party (in honor of a visitor from Beta Alpha in New York, Betty Levery) , a kid party, and teas. Just to prove that, when they wanted to, they could put on the dawg equal to any other greek group, they threw a ritzy banquet in the spring. Prexy Bolin, versatile and gracious, added much to the beauty section of this year ' s Accent. 76 4 % J?

Giving all the other sororities a good trouncing, the Zetas marched off triumphantly with the new soccer cup, with high-point ' Gene Duffey leading in wom- en ' s sports. Traditional parties came and went fast and furious, and plenty of good times were enjoyed. At the an- nual Inter-Sorority Fraternity Sing the Zetas pre- sented a very novel interpretation of Swinging on a Star , with amuzing characterizations by Sarah Fisch, all directed by Kathryn Fiorton, recipient of the 1944 Jack McGih award for the most valuable member of the College Choir.

With programs centered this year around Hobbies and What Every College Student Should Know , Chi Sig ' s never lacked for in- terest and entertainment. Among their social functions were included a skating party, tolk dancing, and suppers. Their help with Re- ligious Emphasis week aided in making it a success. 96 E T A SIGMA P 11 1 Although basically interested in developing a finer appreciation and better understanding of the classic languages, this organization has by no means been of the stick-in-the-mud va- riety. This was due largely to its informal at- mosphere, completely bereft of togas, Hem- lock, sackcloth and ashes — and to not a little of the often corny Cleveland-Hutson witti- cisms. Plays were read, papers were presented, yarns were told, and many of Mrs. Key ' s de- licious meals were consumed with, yes we might even say, classic gusto. The group felt keenly the loss of its great champion and faculty adviser. Dr. Key, who retired this year after having headed the clas- sical languages department for a number of years. As a token of appreciation for his un- tiring work. Eta Sigma Phi presented Dr. Key with several handsomely bound volumes of his beloved classics. OlllClTlS Prcsiiloif .

Initiation of new members Bert Smith, Martha Owen Ingram, Allen Balch. and Betty Davis completed the year ' s work. 98 TAU KAPPA ALPHA Again this year TKA sponsored the Speakers ' Bureau, which furnished speakers for prac- tically any occasion. Recognizing outstand- ing talent and ability in forensic activities on campus, the organization sponsored Spanish- American Contest forums and assisted with the conducting of speech contests of all kinds throughout the city.

The aim of the group is to stimulate interest in the field of mathematics and to recognize outstanding ability in that field. Since the war has placed such importance upon this phase of training, the organization has really come into its own. 100 THETA CHI DELTA At meetings Thcta Chi Delta presented speak- ers of merit in the field of chemistry. They discussed war problems and problems which will be eminent in the post-war period. Spon- sors of the Student Affiliate chapter of the American Chemical Society, members wrote essays on different phases of chemistry to be submitted to the essay contest held anmiall) ' by the national chapter of Thetn Clii Delta.

Among their outstanding events this year have been their proverbially gruesome initiations which accented a glut- tony for gore; combined meetings with Chi Nu Tau, their amazonian counterpart; fasci- nating lectures by successful men in medi- cine; and, just to break the monotony, a party. Not once fooled by their boyish, innocent faces, Goon Gals are looking askance at the Saw-bones as to the whereabouts of the late Alice-Bert, feline mascot of the Castle on the Hill. With rougish leers the boys ' only com- mitment is to the effect that A-B grew tired of it all, so she went out and got herself stewed .... in formaldehyde. 102 CHI N U T A U This group recognizes outstanding ability and interest in the field of biology. During the year it sponsored a newspaper promoting the cause of the Red Cross Blood Bank on campus, and it aided in recruiting work for the Hospital Corps of the WAVES. Several joint functions with Skull Bones, together with lectures from time to time, concluded the year ' s ac- tivities.

A banquet in the winter at the Ridgely concluded the social whirl. 104 ORCHESTRA This has been practically a woman ' s world this year (or have we sed that before?) . . . With only one boy to list among the orches- tra ' s ranks.

This organization is one of the latest additions to campus hfe. As more and more stress is being placed upon international relations, par- ticularly Pan-American relations, this group ' s organization is both timely and interesting. Monthly they meet for supper, after which a prominent speaker is presented. Frequently throughout the year they hold student-faculty forums. 106 RED CROSS This was truly an innovation for the Milltop ... a full-fledged chapter of the American Red Cross. Although a little late in the year getting started, the first basic course resulted in the awarding of thirty certificates. $310 was collected, averaging .80 per student, for the Red Cross Drive. 1 5 girls were secured for Nurses Aide classes at the Hillman, a sen- ior life saving class was organized, 25 were trained for canteen work, stacks of wool knit- ted into scarfs, mittens, caps, and the like, and girls were furnished for USO work and cam- pus collaboration on such things as serving for the Phi Bete spread.

With the help of the Independent Boys (loosely organized), the girls walked off with the Cat ' s Paw plaque again this year, making the third succes- sive time they came out on top in that event. The greatest achievement for this group during the year was the establishment of the erstwhile Y room in Stockham as the Independent Room, thereby providing for non-sorority girls a room of their own on campus m which they might rest, study, lounge, hold bull-fests, eat, and keep their books and things between classes. The venture has been highly successful, and prexy Janice Odom is in line for some sort of meritorious recogni- tion for the fine work she has done. Never to be out- done by any Greek group in captivity, these girls had a tea, numerous parties, raked in the honors m ath- letics, scholarship, and beauty. 10§ R U S U H B E Filling a definite need for those girls whose homes are out of town, this club proves one of the most active every year. The girls meet twice each month, at which times three girls from the group prepare and serve a meal. Other forms of activity include hiking and picnics off campus. OhMCERS ' rcs f r __ BoNNii.

Beginning with an open house in the Fall, the girls managed to squeeze in, somewhere be- tween honorary tappings and dates, initiation for six new Goonlings, a Christmas dinner party, dancing parties for cadets on Saturday afternoons, and birthday parties for all resi- dents of the house. 110 B E T A HOUSE This year the Beta gals set out to prove tliey were anything but pills . Of course, with such dignitaries in residence as Robinski, Ogle- the-vogul, Hattie Pearl, Wita and Mandy, there could never be a dull moment in the house. A glance at their social calendar sup- ports this point, with a Christmas party, fea- turing music, food, gifts; birthday parties (we hear Robinski ' s boasted real champagne from the Czar himself), Impy ' s with three cakes; hikes to Snark ' s Knoll for breakfast a la Impy; 100% participation in both Sadie Hawkins ' Day and the War Fund Drive. To this add the experiences of the They-died-with-their- putees-on Hiking Club , Stearnes ' me and the moon , Wita ' s I-just-wanna-ask-you- one-simple-question , Moe ' s intermittant ole crazy , and Mrs. Booker ' s now girls , and you have a rare time any year.

Helping with the AAF PT classes have been Coaches Falton LeCroy and A. C. Curry. Through the closely co-ordinated efforts of this fine staff, the department has been able to record a most successful year. From our point of view, Intramurals have hit a war-time high this year, with practically capacity per capita partici- pation in all sports offered. Men ' s sports continued on the Fiilltop, despite the lack of male students, in much the usual manner. In PE classes, coaches drilled the boys, carried them (would drove be more adequate?) on cross- country trips, and led them over the obstacle course. Making boys physical- ly fit for the Army life thev were soon to enter was the Intramural Staff ' s aim. In the afternoons, organized teams par- ticipated in extra-curricular intr- mural competition in football, voUevball, bad- minton, horseshoe, paddle-ball basket- IJL INT Directors William Raines Battle, Jr. HiRiAM Benjamin Englebert Elizabeth Vass Lewis A.

Frater- nal, Independent, and Amalgamated Greek teams vied for top honors. This competition displayed skilled, spirited, and sportsmanlike athletes. In the opin- ion of the participants and coaches, war time produced only a slight change in this program. Introduced this year was the Intra- mural Board, composed of two sections. Girls ' and Boys ' . This board met every Monday and set forth rules to be used in tournaments, time limits for these tournaments, schedules, and scoring ta- bles. This is the governing body of the Intramurals. It settles any controver- sies, governs all decisions, regulates the point system. The Girls ' half of the Intramural De- partment has been especially active this year, led by such high-pointers as Wita Jones, Moe Owen, and ' Gene Duffey. They have participated in a raft of sports, ranging from table-tennis to bowling, and enthusiasm waxed high. The advent of girls ' softball on the quadrangle brought quite an innovation to the campus, and the avid spectators of the opposite sex were many in num- ber. 117 N D tijm-e o-wUjL HE RE BaiULd— CHAMPIONSHIP TEAMS No record of a yeiar ' s activities would be complete without a word for cham- pionship teams. This year, the Boys ' Sweepstake cup went again to the KA ' s for best participation in most sports offered. With many of their teams ' members ranking among all-stars, the group also boasted as one of their num- ber J. N. Holt, high-point man for the year. Top prize for Girls ' participation throughout the year, went this year to the KD ' s, who proudly added the award to their magnificent collection. Spurred on by the prowess of Wita Jones, Moe Owen, Ann Ogletree, and Devil Norton, these lasses have given whole-hearted sup- port to the entire Intramural program.
