And for that very reason we often overlook the vast wealth of connotative value lying in that comparison. Everyone can think of various phases of mountain climbing to which the expression might refer, yet many of the ideas are very far removed from the intended meaning. There is all the difference in the world between strug- gling alone up a pathless mountainside on a dark November day and gaily hiking up the same mountain along a clearcut trail with a band of friends and a watchful, understanding leader. Even though both ways may lead upward to the stars, we are deeply grateful for being started on that clear- cut, sunlit trail. Of course, even this well marked path has pebbles on it or boulders across it that must be removed or surmounted, but then, in contrast, the carefree moments of rest in the cool shade are just so much more appreciated! A sudden thunder shower comes up and, frightened and drenched, we scurry for shelter, -- but what of it? There's something wonderfully comforting in having comrades near you who are sharing similar difliculties! And so, as we continue up the trail, one of the higher landmarks at which we arrive in a more thoughtful moment is the realization of just how carefully the way has been prepared for us and just how much we owe to our guide. Proud of our present position as we are, we nevertheless know that we are but one twenty-fifth of all the classes who have known and loved Miss Edell, and whose sincere appre- ciation and thanks we are now expressing. How fortunate we are and how glad to be able to voice this gratitude to Miss Edell in our own Salmagundi, where in years far down the future's broadening way, we shall look back and say then, as now, a sincere thank you to the one who first and continuously pointed our way through all difliculties toward the stars. 55555555 .

Class Day at St. Margaret's is a ceremony which marks the completed achievements in the school career of one class and its individual members, yet each Class Day is unique because it is characterized by the personalities of the graduating seniors. But one of its most important moments is the traditional ceremony at the end in which the reluctantly departing class turns over to its immediate followers the symbols of seniorhood. Unbelievably for us, juniors, that climax in our school life and milestone in yours has come, and it is our turn to be the well-wishing donors. It is our class, nineteen thirty-eight, which actually gives yours, nineteen thirty-nine, the Senior Steps, the Senior Room, and the Senior House. But all the accumulated love for and pride in these possessions and all they stand for is entrusted to you, not by us alone but by every senior class before you. iIt is not in the nature of undue pride, but of knowing promise, that we assure you of this fact: an underclassman recognizes the concrete, outward meaning of these three possessions, but only a Senior can know that they are but tangible Cand therefore, very preciousj aspects of all the inward significance of senior- hood. What that vital significance is, juniors, is now yours to discover. We can but give you the possessions which you now have earned, and we do so gladly and confidently. isiiziniioia solute fBright Summer by Charles Vincentl With ready hearts and willing hands Thirty-eight started on its way. As knights of old, we pledged our vows To live the best each day. With faith in Miss Edell, our guide, Our banners blue, flying wide, We seek to be worthy of life's high aim And bring fame to our dear St. Margaret's name. Our class, thirty-eight, is riding on Like knights of the yesteryear, Our heads bravely raised to meet what comes, Proud hearts never yielding to fear. Our life crusade has just begun: May our goals be ever one! Let us seek to be worthy of life's high aim And bring fame to our dear St. Margaret's name. ACCEPTANCE SPEECH FROM our very first days at St. Margaret's, we recognized the sanctity of certain spots, a sanctity that we as Freshmen would never understand. A few of us were unwary enough to show our independ- ence but most of us sensed the danger of trespassing. And though we pretended, perhaps, to be indifferent, yet we knew that we could never be really content until the day when these treasured possessions should be ours. So for three years! And now, almost unbelievably, we are standing on the Senior Steps. Now more than ever, each one of us realizes the necessity of following the splendid example of your class and of every other senior class before you. Those moments when we carry out St. Margaret's traditions, and especially on Class Day, have always seemed the most beautiful of the school year. These traditions stand for the intangible things that cause graduates to return on Class Day and to send their daughters back to St. Margaret's. Now for the first time that we take part in this ceremony, we fully understand why it is that these steps mean so much to every senior class. In accepting these symbols of seniorhood -'the Senior Steps, the Senior House, and the Senior Room -, we have taken on a new responsibility and we promise you that we will strive to be worthy of the honor given us. JUNIOR SONG 1 CSong of Dawn by Offenbachl When as eager freshmen first we made our start, Even then true loyalty grew in every heart. Each day brought new pleasure more than we could measure. Here we found new comradeship and Miss Edell, too. And now that we are older we've set new goals to gain. High ideals we've learned to hold and these will remain. Knowledge ever increasing, loyalty never ceasing, All our hopes have been fullfilled. Too soon we leave St. Margaret's for what the world may give, But armed with courage, knowledge, too, we're not afraid to live. Forward gaily singing, St. Margaret's praises ringing, Onward then let come what may, we'll welcome each day. Refrain Come sing, oh sing, St. Margaret's dear! Come sing, oh sing of memories here. With loud acclaim, we'll praise her name And sing of om' St. Margaret's dear. +4 is COMPLAINT TU FATHER TIME VENERABLE SIR: The class of '38 wishes to register a complaint for your lack of indulgence. Our four years have been altogether too brief 5 in fact, we feel that you have been most ungenerous to us. Beginning with our Freshman year, time went all too swiftly to include '38's numerous events and accomplishments. As june 1935 marked the close of our first crammed year, '38 had to its credit two capable officers and one equally capable class ad- viser, namely, Sue Smith, chairman, Doris Boies, treasurer, and Miss Sutherland, faculty adviser. Our automobile party must also be mentioned, for even now we hear reverberations of it. Even you, Father Time, must remember that hat Margie had on and the horn,' contest, too, where contestants were requested to imitate the horns of different automobiles. We felt terribly proud of our young selves, but, as always, we had no time to indulge in that feeling at all. As early as our Freshman year, the Glee Club began to be populated with '38's, Margaret, Kitty, Sue Smith, Betty Hinman, Mary Louise, and Alice Heminway, being the songbirds on the preferred list. But time dragged us on so fast that we had to give athletics just a lick and a promise in between energetic water fights and the wonderful picnic at which Betty Hinman so kindly was hostess. We returned from our summer vacation ex- pecting to take life easy, now that we had grown up to the high estate of Sophomores, but again you jerked us along by the ears. First of all, Sue hav- ing left us, we had to elect new officers, so Margie Gifiin became our chairman, and Kitty, our treas- urer. Having risen above the enjoyment or need of water fights, we took time to be well represented on the athletic teams, and the Latin Club, Magpie board, and Glee Club welcomed with open arms the torrents of gifted Sophomores that fell upon them. Time rushed us on again to our class party, this year a newspaper party. The school seemed to appreciate our first journalistic efforts, for the party was a success meriting headlines in any extra. But before we had the chance of reveling in the joys of Sophomore freedom, you, Father Time, announced that the day had come for us to take up Junior responsibilities. After much serious discus- sion on the weighty problems ahead, we proudly and unanimously elected Kay Platt to the position of secretary on the Stu Gee Board, for, knowing her capabilities, the rest of the school backed us up. Our year was brought to its customary all too speedy close when, while our elder schoolmates coquetted and danced in the gym, we had a de- lightful supper with Miss Sutherland at the cottage and then went to see Mr. Deeds Goes zo Town. After we returned, we peeked enviously through the gym windows. The following autumn saw us gleeful over our new status - we were genuine upper classmen at last. Even if we hadn't discovered that we couldn't get along without our well tried officers, we wouldn't have had time to choose new ones. Our Junior year began in its customary rush, and the fall was positively crammed with events. '38 whipped through the hockey season packing the teams with its members. Several Friday after- noons, most of us participated in those scrumptious French Club teas which had for so long been be- yond our reach. Time suddenly precipitated us into the midst of the Roosevelt-Landon presidential campaign. One fine day we were transported to Waterbury and from behind the bars which encircle a well-kept green yard we, open-mouthed, watched Roosevelt's triumphant procession through the city. Spurred on by this close contact with national politicians, we celebrated the campaign locally by our own polit- ical rally. Shall we ever forget Margie Gifiin be- neath John L. Lewis' craggy eyebrows, or Margie Newton, as A1 Smith, enthusiastically slinging mud at Roosevelt with an appropriate East Side accent while realistically chewing on a powerful five cent cigar? Jane Farwell ably supported the radical element in the person of Earl Browder, while Mickey and Ellen, as the Republican elephant, danced to the tune of Oh,Susan11a. Nan Armstrong illustrated the effect of Roosevelt's Ciceronian oratory by emotionally forsaking Browder with: I can't stand it any longer- I 'nz converted! and a consequent dash to the booth to cast her vote for Roosevelt. If you hadn't rushed us on so, Father Time, weld still have been voting and perhaps Landon might have won. In your characteristic fashion of hurrying us from one thing to another, we found ourselves, on the eve of the Christmas pageant, well-represented both in the Christmas Choir and among the angels. The loveliness of that memorable evening was temporarily dispelled the next morning as we shivered in the corridors and sang carols to the rest of the school. Vacation sped by, and we found ourselves one january day, marching into the dining room headed by the omcers for our senior year, namely: president, Margie Gifihn, vice-president, Doris Boies, secretary, Betty Tompkins, and orator, Kay Platt. Shortly after that we met in small, unsus- picious-looking groups-or so we thought-in Miss Fdell's study to choose our color and dress. After much deliberation and suppressed offs and !l1l,5 of delight, we finally agreed on Engadine Hlue. Incidentally, our uniform created quite a stir when we announced it at The Magpie fashion show, and it took its place among the best styles of the year. We thought we'd get a jump ahead of time and choose our flower early, but again you intervened, and it wasn't until May that our choice of white iris was revealed. The Seniors proved to be almost your equal, Father Time, judging from the way they rushed us down the steps one day in early spring. It was a delicious and provoking taste, however, of the privilege to come next year. In no time at all the junior-Senior lacrosse game came around, and did we feel proud when we carried off the laurels! Willy-Nilly, our sub- mascot, led our triumphant entry onto the field, and the Seniors flitted upon us as butterflies. The Senior-Junior banquet was here before we knew it, but this time we must confess we could not object too strenuously to the rush. Miss Sutherland's speech about the fourth dimension quite amazed us at her abilities as an orator, and we blushed with the best of them at our slams. But we hardly had a moment to meditate on the seniors' approaching day of departure and our own nearing responsibilities and privileges before you brought the banquet to all too swift a close. The ring of a cowbell introduced the long- awaited mascot hunt. liven a steady downpour of rain didn't seem to dampen the Seniors' zeal as they tracked down our clues, while we sat grinding our teeth in study hall. But here for once, Father Time, you helped us, for night fell soon to prove the Seniors' quest a vain one, and not until Class Day did we announce our mascot, an armillary sundial. VVe seemed to approve of the taste of '37 for we again selected Mohawk as the site for the junior-Senior picnic. After climbing mountains, exploring caves, and singing gaily on top of a little stone tower with never a thought of the exams to come, we climaxed the picnic by announcing our song between mouthfuls of fried chicken and doughnuts. It was really your fault, Father Time, that we didn't sing with more lusty assurance- but our guests assured us that we'd done well for our first appearance. As the end of the year came dashing toward us, we shouldered our new responsibilities and looked to our Stu Gee Board for able leadership. Phyllis was elected president, Kay Platt, vice- president, and Nan, treasurer. No sooner had we started to enthusiastically congratulate the new board, than you, Father Time, hurled us into the midst of that long-awaited upper class privilege - participation in Commencement week-end. We gaily donned our evening togs and almost danced our feet off Saturday night at the prom in an as, ,,4.L...x, ,Say -:'5.gf'-,sygggfzygjgjw 5, 4, really Seniors, the arrival of Senior rings, one De- cember morning, clarified the situation. Christmas loomed into view before it really seemed possible, and this year it was our pageant that caused us a lump in the throat. We all were is fe effort to make up for our past year's absence. Class Day was for us the climax of the week-end, and with proper dignity and not too much outward jubilance we followed our leaders across the porch and took possession of the long-coveted Senior Steps. You hurried us over vacation and about Sep- tember twentieth, '38 plunged headlong into its much-looked-forward-to Senior year. The junior- Senior hockey game came and went and we emerged victorious from the battle field. After the entertaining gay-nineties party, given by the Lavenders under Mickey's leadership, the senior hostesses had the thrill of the first breakfast in the Senior Room. You allowed us another special treat, Father Time, on one October evening- supper at Miss Sutherland's haunted by the candid cameraman who insisted on taking our pictures while we were blissfully devouring chicken and ice cream. Miss Sutherland told us about her last summer's trip to Mexico and illustrated her tale with colorful gifts for us all from that country. Before we had time to even glance at the list of our classmen at the top of every organization, you rushed us into a meeting in Miss Chandler's room. After much shushing and striking of non- chalant attitudes for the benefit of prying Juniors, we managed to elect a very able Sal board, headed by Tommie and Kitty. If the announcement of our Sal board wasn't quite sufficient proof that we were either on the choir or in the pageant itself, Tommie and Ellen taking the leading roles as Mary and Joseph. But you rushed us on from the beauty of the candlelight service and the reverence in Dr. Lewis' voice as he read the lesson, to the luxury of lying in bed while the juniors shivered and sang. After Christmas we plunged into essay work, time again being an important but dreaded factor. The walls rang with quotations and sighs, and oh, Father Time, how cruel you were to us then! You rushed us with demands for completed outlines, you overworked our creative brains in the puppet workshop, and you took up our lovely Sunday afternoons with work on the Sal. And yet we admit we loved every frantic minute! On a typi- cally hurried week-day the Seniors held a myster- ious meeting in the Senior Room, and chose as our motto: To the stars through diH5culties . The juniors, easily fooled by Nan's quite obvious loss of a vital paper, seemed to gather a different idea, for the next day they marched blithely into the study hall with some little ditty by Marcus Aurelius pinned on their shoulders. Father Time, we saw you stop for just a second to join us in a friendly smile and a wink! And your good humor must have lasted over to the junior-Senior basket- ball game, for '38, dressed as haunting ghosts, had ample time to win a sizable victory over Snow White and her dwarfs, alias the athletic juniors. Fortunately, you slowed down for a few min- utes and, with the rest of the school, thoroughly enjoyed Mary Peacock's, Pam's, Emma Dean's and Jane's vocal contributions to the French Play. We were justly proud of our linguistic classmates, too. The entire affair was a success although the audience seemed to think it passed quickly,-ahem, Venerable Sir, you see '38 is not the only com- plainant. After spring vacation the fatal day came upon us for essay reading before the faculty. With trembling voices we read our modest contributions, and here for a second time, you passed too slowly! In spite of the fearful excitement of the above- mentioned event, we fooled you and squeezed in the announcement of our class hymn, and rehearsed for the Magpie plays and fashion show. The Senior-Junior banquet again hurtled at us, but this time we were regretful to see it come, realizing that the end of the year was approaching. Nevertheless we found cheerful inspiration in Miss lidell's speech, and listened with pride to our class leaders. Miss Carrington added to the gayness, and we accepted our gifts with our accustomed jollity. But it certainly seemed strange to hear class history and phophecy read and to know it was our class! You rushed us all, all too rapidly into exams. VVe went down to the gym trying hastily to cram one more sentence into our already stuffed minds, then plunged desperately in. However, nothing fwell, almost nothingj is ever so bad as it seems, so the exams were soon happily over, leaving us in the midst of the mascot hunt. And oh, Father Time, you must have sprouted extra wings on the occasion, for, although we proved fairly able sleuths, we didn't exactly cover ourselves with glory! The Junior-Senior picnic was on our heels presently, and it really was quite a pleasure to be guests instead of hostesses. And now, Father Time, we wish to register our most serious complaint: a definite objection to the way you acted during commencement week- end! WVith only four days left to us you might have been more generous, but, no, you insisted on speeding up. Being the truly formal hostesses at the prom was fun but the hours sped too quickly. Baccalaureate with all its loveliness gave way to the joys and sadness of Class Day when we saw the new Seniors possessing our steps. The Senior play went oil without a hitch but its finale was the beginning of the end. VVe saw you pass clear out of sight as we felt the leather of our diploma and read our name upon its parchment. We sincerely hope, Father Time, that you'll take this epistle to heart and be a bit more generous to the class of '39. VVe know they'll appreciate itl Yours in a hurry, THE CLASS OF '38 ' iw lux g, A - 'xblrii ru , -1 1-.

VVe are now firm believers in the adage that people from sunny countries are good-natured, at least, if all are as pleasant comrades as Lucille. her aspiration to sing in opera should prove suc- cessful, for she has already made a good start on the Glee Club. Yet between her singing and club activities, she often greets us with a cheering word or smile, and she has Won the respect and affection of all of us through her generosity and sincerity. BEAUTIFUL, but dumb? Oh, no! Though many are charmed by Betty's lovely face, we find her personality equally striking.

They haste to claim possessions bequeathed them in the will. O, it's Senior steps and Senior room, and Seniors, you go first! But it's Seniors are examples! when the noise is at its worst. When the noise is at its worst, my dears, the noise is at its worst, It's Remember, you're examples when the noise is at its worst. When leading into chapel they're as Senior-ish as can be, But dashing to be first to dine - Oh, 'where is dignity? Blase, they order coffee or a dish of tea instead, But when October rolls around the milk-list goes ahead. For it's Senior house and Senior steps and Let the Seniors by But, when in junior closets, Toss them out becomes the cry. For Friday night the Seniors save many an irksome task- We get more done upstairs than down - and if the faculty, dubious, ask, Why, we're going to Taft to-morrow, so we've done our nails and hair, Cleaned bureau-drawers and closets and decided what to wear. O, it's Senior steps, and Senior room and, Don't exert yourselves! But trekking from the library, they carry half the shelves! Hymn ninety-five they learn so well they hear it in their dreams. And temporary angels they, 'midst radiant candle-gleams. They lie in bed next morning while the juniors rise and shine, And many are the teary vows to come next pageant-time! O, it's Senior angels, Senior Kings, while alumnae shower praise, But - It's the last time we'll be angels here. Next year we'll only gaze! Then Sal begins, and essays, and a history review. They recuperate at Picketts and then plunge in anew! Yet if sometimes their conduct isn't all your fancy paints, ' Why -they can't be perfect all the time, they're not just plaster saints! Yes, it's Senior rings and Senior dress, and five cuts to a term -- But a Huh! We'1l have them next year will make the proudest squirm The faculty at their mercy, they make their bids for fame, And a paltry few reach chapel to read amidst acclaim! At the Senior-Junior banquet the great ones are in sway, But when their mascot isn't found the Juniors have the day. O, it's Senior Sal and Senior hymns and tea with Miss Edell. But when exams come thundering round, the Senior's life is - well! ! They've filled their cards in winter for the Senior prom in June, Then dizzy jazz-time fades before their Baccalaureate tune. On Class Day gleeful juniors accept their honored place While graduates live in trembling fear of tripping and disgrace! O, it's Senior work and Senior groans - and pride may take a fall, And they rush and worry muchly - but don't they love it all! Why, of course, they love it all, my dears, of course, they love it all! For we've dashed and workediand worried and we know 'we love it all!

How interesting it is to note throughout the year the gradual improvement of each pianist - thanks to Miss Gay's patient guidance and our enthusiasm. Then at least once each term, a music program is given for the whole school. This year there is an unanswered question which will probably remain unanswered, too. VVho most enjoyed the evening of Beethoven? VVas it the girls who sang? 'Was it those who played? Or was it those whose ex- tensive research brought out so much interesting material about the great musician? No answer to this question will pass uncontended. Besides at- tending school recitals, many club members had the privilege of going to several fine concerts in Hartford and in New Haven. In fact, all the Clavier Clubbers feel that this has been an enjoy- able and a valuable year.

And M'.fXmie, without whom we should be quite at sea, has proved her mettle as a guide with several new and very good ideas.

XYe are grateful to Mrs. l.aVigne for opening her home to us, and we spent two delightful after- noons at the llniversity Club with lVlrs.

And Cjfllllllllffljf' Fllfllffjf' .fl1f1'i.w'1' when the day pupils couldn't accommodate our bursting membership, Miss YVood took care of us at our school meetings by serving us very delicious refreshments. VVherever we were, we always had the enjoyment of Mme. Bertrand's amusing games. lfinally, as a fitting' climax, we gave the work of M'Amie's genius: The Lax! Slipper-an op- eretta in l rench,and a short play directed by Nlme. Bertrand. Pamela Bermingham and Mary Peacock made the convincing hero and heroine of the op- eretta. VVe are very proud of lVl'Amie, for she not only wrote, but also directed the play. After the curtain, some of the zffllllltlfij permnar came down from the stage and danced the tarantella, thanks to Miss .-Xubry's able coaching. liven though we did enjoy the banquet in May, how sad we were to have to bring such a wonderful year to a closel Hut here's to l939l SOCCllfilll?. lhfllllllsllxlllli Jane Farwell Judy Hull Betty Nemiah Shirley Narr Barbara Bailey Joy Hyde Ruth Kirschbaum Miss Bailey ON the Ides of October the veteran Sociae, living up to their motto, seized the opportunity to initiate the new members. Several candidates under stress amused us with highly entertaining versions of familiar myths and, after duly signing the parchment scroll, became full-fledged Latinites. At this meeting, Vergills two thousand and seventh birthday was celebrated with all due respect. just before Christmas We gathered for our traditional celebration of the Roman Saturnalia, the heyday for Rome's slaves. XVearing our caps of freedom, we played slave and enjoyed exchanging small gifts and gambling for nuts in the true Roman fashion. .-Xt Barbara Baileyls house in January, Nlr. Martin regaled and instructed us with anec- dotes of his trip to ltaly. By way of introduction, we had drawn maps of Italy from memory and, although we didn't quite get together on the loca- Cofzsuls Pmetor Q IHIFSIOI' .fl erlilw Faculty A zifuiser tion of Vergil's birthplace, Mr. Nlartin set it right in describing his visit to Mantua. lncidentally Mrs. Bailey and Barbara did nobly by the Sociae at this meeting, too. YVe were doubly fortunate during the Winter term, for we were allowed to make another pleasant excursion-this time to Ann l7oster's in Nliddlebury, where we were kept busy Working out OppAO-Lats, Hush-O-I,ats and Verba-Lats. Some people emerged with an amaz- ing row of pins on their sweaters, quite enough to hold up a toga at the banquet. Fat, drink and be merry,'l was the way of old Roman banquets, and so we did. VVho would miss the chance when such a prominent citizen as Julius Caesar was givf ing the party and we, proudly displaying the com- fortable costume of the ancients, could pose as his contemporaries? ! I THE Marionette season opened with the election of organization ofii- cers. The final verdict showed Margaret Newton, president, Hettie Joe Paull, vice-president, Cathryn Jones, secretary, and Natalie Rowbottom, treasurer. Under the very able direction of Miss Frost, we started out on De- cember 3 with Dust of the Road, by Kenneth Sawyer Goodman, and The Diaholical Circle by Beula Bornstead. In Dust of the Road, Suzanne Pressey, '39, as Prudence Steel, Kitty Dallas, '3 8, as an old man , Molly Shons, '39, portraying the tramp, and Mary Louise Goss, '38, as Peter Steel, - all gave noteworthy performances.

The publicity was under the direction of Betty Lalley, '39. Bravo! all around for excellent performances. The Marionettes discovered some very good talent among its new members. DIRAMALTICS Le Cercle F rangais' contribution of the year materialized on March 12. It was a charming operetta, The Lost Slipper, the story suggested to M'Amie by an Italian tale.

The play, an ancient Chinese piece, cap- tured the hearts of the audience with its humor, fantasy, and appeal to the imagination.

May you have as satisfying a season as that which we have just com- pleted!

' fl ' ' l ,frigid if ,fi ' . rt fri Jw AITHLIETTCS WE may be Lavenders and we may be VVhites, but we all love each other! D With Miss Carrington and Miss Aubry to direct us and Ellen Gery as president, Betty Wyckoff as vice-president, Marjorie Sampsell as secre- tary, and Helen johnson as treasurer, the A. A. felt assured of a successful year ahead. Emma Dean Larkin, as Lavender captain, with the help of her eager followers entertained the victorious VVhites, led by Pamela Bermingham, their captain, at the Gay Nineties Party. NVe were all transported to the age of Flora-Dora girls, weepy blues songs, thrilling nielerdramas , and barber shop quartets. Although this glimpse into the hilarious World of yesteryear was a reward for last year's victorious VVhites, this year's friendly rivalry was begun by the Lavenders' determined announcement of their ambition to recapture the cup. The VVhites, however, lived up to expectations in the hockey season, for its first team conquered the Lavender representatives. Yet the score of 2-1 shows the closeness of the battle. Those playing for the Lavenders were N. Armstrong, D. Barclay, P. Bonn licaptainl, E. D. Larkin, B. Lund- berg, M. Newton, H. Paull, L. Pinney, B. Tompkins, D. VVeyand, G. si iw l 'gil Q ' . N. i in 'Jf P' 'llfk Li . 'Q 7 Wilsoil and ll. VVorden. The VVhites were P. Bermingham, D. Boies, Buxton, F. Carr, M. Camp, F.. fiery, Nl. L. Goss, H. Johnson, N. LaVigne, M. Peacock, K. Platt, Marjorie Sampsell, and B. VVyckoff fcaptainl. Disappointing rain and snow cancelled all but one second team hockey game, which took place November -I-. The Lavenders were victorious with the score of 2-1. Playing on the YVhite team were M. Gifiin fcaptainl, M. L. Goss, Ni. Hadley, Hull, C. Jones, N. LaVigne, lVIacDougall, B. McLean, G. Oellers, A. dePotter, and Marie Sampsell. The Lavenders were E. Barringer, B. Brengle Ccaptainl, Copp, M. L. Curry, J. Farwell, D. Hess, S. Narr, Peirce, M. Robertson, M. Ross, and G. VVilson. This year the Senior team was entertained at VVestover for the annual inter-scholastic game. The girls who went were N. Armstrong, D. Boies, P. Bonn, P. Carr, E. Gery lcaptainl, H. Johnson, E. D. Larkin, B. Lund- berg, H. Paull, M. Peacock, K. Platt, M. Newton, and B. VVyckoff. Reversing the fall situation, the Lavenders showed themselves masters of indoor technique by winning both the first and second team basketball games. Those playing for the XVhites first team were P. Bermingham, F. Carr, li. Gery, H. johnson, N. LaVigne, M. Peacock lcaptainl, Marjorie Sampsell, M. Shons, and B. Wyckoff. The victorious Lavenders were N. Armstrong Ccaptainj, D. Barclay, P. Bonn, B. Chedel, E. D. Larkin and L. Pinney. The second team Lavenders were B. Brengle Ccaptainj, D. Hess, B. Lundberg, S. Narr, V. Robertson, and B. Tompkins, and Whites were C. Byrnes, M. Camp, F. Carr, M. Hadley, N. LaVigne, Mac- Dougall, M. Peacock, K. Platt fcaptainl, and Marie Sampsell. Real.winter with all the trimmings offered a new diversion for the non-basketballites. S.M.S. was lucky in securing the able Francois Bertrand to teach us the rudiments of skiing technique. Many of us finally mastered the difficult stems and herringbones, but, as nature failed to co-operate agree- ably for more than a week, the return to basketball was inevitable. With Snow White and the Dwarfs opposing the Sinister Six, the Junior-Senior basketball game was exciting. The Seniors won 45-22 sub- duing the Juniors for the moment. The Seniors playing were N. Armstrong, P. Bermingham, P. Bonn, B. Chedel fcaptainj, E. Gery, and B. Wyckoff. The valiant Juniors were D. Barclay, N. LaVigne, L. Pinney, Marjorie Sampsell fcaptainj, M. Shons, and Worden. Bringing both basketball season and the winter term to a close was the play-off of the Seniors' challenge to the Faculty-Alumnae. The faculty audience in very appropriate costumes waltzed into the gym to the tune of Daisy, Daisy and the team followed, garbed in middies and bloomers. The Dionnes and Dr. Dafoe turned out to be the Seniors in disguise and their abnormal strength for such young looking infants overwhelmed the fragile 'fgirls from the Institute by the score of 4-2-6. The Faculty-Alumnae players were Aubry, A. Butler, P. Deacon, C. Jones, E. Rush and H. VVilder. The Seniors who played were N. Armstrong, P. Bermingham, P. Bonn, E. Gery, H. Johnson, E. D. Larkin and B. VVyckoff. The spring athletic season showed both new and old experts in lacrosse, tennis, and badminton. The lacrosse games were finally played. On the victorious Lavender team Q6-SJ were N. Armstrong, D. Barclay, P. Bonn fcaptainj, B. Chedel, D. Hess, E. D. Larkin, B. Lundberg, G. Pierce, L. Pinney, V. Robertson, D. VVeyand, G. VVilson, and 'Worden The VVhites were P. Bermingham, D. Boies, M. Camp, English, E. Gery, M. Hadley, H. Johnson, M. Peacock fcaptainj, A. de Potter, Marjorie Sampsell, M. Shons, Stowe, and B. VVyckoff. The tennis tournament again had eight girls from each team striving for the cup. The VVhites were B. Bailey, P. Bermingham, M. Hadley, J. Hyde, K. Platt, M. Shons, Stowe, and Thompson, and the Lav- enders were Copp, Kimbel, B. Lalley, E. D. Larkin, A. Perry, P. Smith, B. Tompkins, and C. VVilcox. The presentation of a dance by Miss Aubry's modern dance group was an interesting addition to the usual awarding of emblems and speeches at the annual long-awaited A. A. banquet. The laughter following Miss Carringtonls speech dissolved into the original and witty songs and cheers that brought another successful year to an end. ..,....-.-,.... 1 .,1... . ..r. , l 1 scinrooit sono i Every springtime brings a parting Every June we say farewell, But with fond and lingering memories Of the place we love so well. There is no school like Saint Margaret's - So we think and always will - With its porch of sweet Wisteria, And the orchard on the hill. Ah, how fast speed by the hours 'Neath its dear old sheltering roof! VVhether sunshine, whether showers, VVhether praise or stern reproofl And how steadfast is the loyalty That dwells deep within our hearts! Our first thought is of Saint Margaret's And the next to do our parts. When 'tis but a happy memory As in after years we roam, We will still strive to be worthy Of the place we once called home Though the path of life be thorny And the goal be hard to gain, VVe will not forget Saint Margaret's, Nor will break the daisy chain.
