SPENCER T. OLIN (ANN WHITNEY) Alton, Illinois Class of 1925. Alumnae Member Ex-officio: GEORGE IRWIN ROHRBOUGH President, Monticello College"A WISH FOR EACH SENIOR" I wish for you a capacity to separate the important things in life from the trivial and to live by and for tho important and not the inconsequential. May you so order your years that life continuously opens up before you. May you have a dynamic, creative, developing theory and practice in living. When you look back upon the "good old days" at Monticello, may those good times not only serve to remind you how much you have done since graduation but their memory should always urge you on to greater works for the welfare of your fellowman. "Grow old along with me, the best is yet to be." G.I.R. 8B.A., D.

The experimental workshop was created this year to give drama students an opportunity to apply those things they had learned in class on the stage and to provide entertainment for the campus community. During the year the members of the workshop presented three one-act plays. They also formed their own laboratory workshop and worked with Godfrey school children, directing and helping to produce several plays with them.
