Geraldine Ailstock, treasurer; Dorothy Moore, sergeant - at - arms; Winifred Rew, business manager; Peggy Weller, reporter; Almeda Greyard, president; Marcella Richardson, vice-president; Charlotte Heslep, secretary ers of the Senior Class of 1 940. They were typical college students but, more than that, they were typical class leaders! The Senior Class sponsors were Miss Helen M. Marbut and Dr. H. A. Converse, and the mascot was Beatrice Ott. On the opposite page, in attitudes of repose, are seen members of the Senior Class Council. But re- pose was not always their lot, for they usually had to be up and doing. It was theirs to elect hostesses for Senior Hall and to appoint suite-groups for answering the tele- phones — which seemed to ring constantly. Again, it was their high function to see that dormitory rules and proprieties were observed and to advise with any girl who might be in danger of becoming a discipline problem. Endeavoring thus to forsee and to forestall possible errors into which some of their classmates might inadvertently fall, this Council stood always ready to serve as a sort of buffer between any pos- sible unwary individual and the higher Council of Student Government, which had the power and the obligation to act in these matters. The Senior Class chose as president for its Council Frances Cole, in whom they vested the re- sponsibility. Shreck, the house president, looked after the general welfare of Senior Hall and had the specific tasks of locking doors and calling house meetings — where everyone appeared looking very unnatural in bathrobe, slippers, and hair-curlers. Meda and Marie were also members of this Council, by virtue of their positions as presidents of the Senior Class and of Y. W. C. A., respectively. Miss Ruth Hudson, social director, was faculty adviser. [27]
