Ch THE MAIQLBQIQQUQH DIAIQV 565 I l Alhlelic Council Mrs. Scott of the New York Theatre Guild gave an interesting lec- ture on The Merchant of Venice this afternoon. Now just try to teach us a lesson when we go to the theatre! FEBRUARY 13-Today I had one of those few and far between leisure moments which the teachers mention when they assign outside read- ing, so I dropped in on a meeting of the Hospitality Committee. Mary Sinclair, the chairman, was presiding, and I sat down among friends- Sally Swigart, Mignon Woideman, Orian Smith, Sheila Hunt, Jaqueline Dufhe, Betty McCoy, Jeenie Bevis, Virginia Agnew, Bryce Macomber, Florence Raymond, and Phyllis Boothe. Miss McMechan and Miss West were there to lend dignity to the occasion. I agreed absolutely with the ideas which they upheld-assisting girls who are new in the school on their adjustment, changing the seating plan for luncheon, and seeing that members of visiting teams and those accompanying them are assured a welcome. I can remember when I was new in the school fof course I was a mere youngster thenl, and it made me happy enough to weep when everyone was so kind and helpful. Also-and this is a real tip-if you have a friend on the Hospitality Committee, you might get the break of sitting near the kitchen at luncheon and then you'll get your food first! Isn, t that logic?

I like surprises, but the unexpected qualities of diagnostics are often fatal. The appropriate toast now would be Until June! FEBRUARY 5-The basketball game between the Seniors and juniors was played today, and at last victory is ours! The score was 16 to 11 . . . a close and thrilling game! And whoops, my dear, can it be that those orations with which we've all been struggling are really over? Ar least except for the unhappy few who are to take part in the school finals! FEBRUARY 6-As I was passing through the halls today, I was sud- denly accosted fnotice the wordlb by Eleanor Kirkley, chairman of the Courtesy Committee. She asked me to round up some of the members so that the meeting could be held. After my diligent search all over the school, I was awarded the privilege of attending the meeting. Among those present were Mary Margaret Hobson, Elmora Macomber, Frances Stoepel, Mary Edith Babcock, Miss Hart, and Miss Carter. They went over the list of Marlborough Do's which they had formulated and picked out several which should be presented to the Student Body . . . with emphasis. I think it's marvelous for the committee to show the girls how they look to others, because as far as I'm concerned, I'm sure I'd never be discourteous intentionally. FEBRUARY 12-Lincoln's birthday and a grand Lincoln program by the Drama Workshop. Who would have believed that Betty Lee Cline would make so fine a president, and we almost didn't like Andy Somers when we saw her next. She was far too convincing in her role. I thought Jayne Spence was lovely in her part, and I felt awfully weepy. H71

C55 THE MAIQLBOIQQUQH DIARY 5-65 I ' I FEBRUARY 15-Brrrr . . . Captain Macmillan told us of his trip to the North Pole. Local color was furnished very effectively at the back of the Study Hall, for a ninety mile gale was blowing in the west door! FEBRUARY 18-This afternoon the Williams Puppeteers performed for us, giving Hansel and Gretel and some short numbers. I fell in love with the elf that danced in the woods and with the skeleton who pranced around, sometimes together sometimes in pursuit of his ribs! FEBRUARY 20-Good old Washington! Today we're getting out of school for a longer week-end than usual. Sunday is Washington's birth- day, and Monday we'll have a holiday. The Senior Privilege Day is to be Tuesday, so we'll have a marvelous vacation. The rest of the school doesn't know this yet! One begins to feel the advantage of being a Senior. This morning the new semester members of the C. S. F. were initiated, and for the first time in the history of the school four life members were chosen. They are Mary Pike, Edwine Montague, Mary Margaret Hob- son, and Lucia Raymond. Today they are eligible to wear the pin-a lamp of learning-the only secondary school pin allowed on a college campus! At twelve-forty-five the U. S. History classes presented a program dedicated to Washington. Then just before lunch we all smiled sweetly at the camera while the school picture was taken. just at the crucial moment, I sneezed! At three o'clock we won a basketball game from Westridge-25 to 6. Who said anything about leisure time? FEBRUARY 25-This morning the pins were presented to the life members of the C. S. F. And on their diplomas will be the resilient gold seal. Isn't that something to look forward to? At one o'clock the biology classes went to Exposition Park on an expedition to further their scientific knowledge. Einstein won't stand a chance! FEBRUARY 26-I heard some girls speaking of the Form Committee today, and since I have been sort of worried about my form lately, I decided to go to the meeting. In fact, I've gained five pounds in the last week and something has to be done! Jean Albertson, the secretary of the Student Council, is chairman. It seems to be a committee of one with Miss De Wolf as adviser. I gained a remarkable amount of knowledge about Parliamentary form fnot what I'd expected but I didnft tell them thatj, and I was overwhelmed by the number of functions of this com- mittee: to give directions to all secretaries and treasurers, to compile a general statement of the functions of class, club, and committee officers, to supervise the collection of dues each semester, and to collect all secre- taries' and treasurers' books at the end of the year. Some job! H91
