21109 J he y i ndpira ' p tlo n 4 MUSIC AND DRAMA Robert Haven Schauffler once said, It takes three to take music: one to create, one to perform, one to appreci- ate. And who can tell which is the most important? From its earliest forms, music has always been the ex- pression of man ' s inner being. A love for make-believe, a desire to be amused, and a natural instinct on the part of man to express his feelings are the roots from which music has grown from its primitive stages to Its complex develop- ment of the last few centuries. Interest In the great treasures of our musical heritage is keenly alive today. Its value to the individual lies in its fulfillment of man ' s need for inspiration and beauty. To create, to perform, to appreciate — dare we say that one of these holds more value than the other? MERNER - PFEIFI-ER LiBKAKY TENf ESSEE WESLEYAN COLLEGE ATHENS, TENNESSEE MRS.

f- nudical EDUCATION The Physical Education program at Wesleyan has been hindered in many ways during the first and second quarters of 1945-46. First of all, equipment at times has been almost im- possible to obtain. Furthermore, school had al- ready started before the college was able to secure an Athletic Director. In spite of these and other handicaps, the school has managed to provide enough recrea- tion to take care of the needs of the majority of the students. Ping-pong has been popular all year, with both boys and girls taking a major interest in the sport. Phyllis Boyd won the girls ' ping-pong tournament and Charles Montgomery, the boys ' championship. Basket- ball was the main sport during the winter months, with the Physical Education classes as well as the varsity taking part. Football prac- tice has now started and softball is becoming Increasingly popular on the campus. Now that the college has a full-time Athletic Director and the equipment situation has be- come more promising, the school is looking for- ward to a great expansion in Physical Educa- tion classes, both in the number of students participating and the variety of the program. Volleyball, horseshoes, tennis, softball, and bad- minton are to be added to the program in order to offer every student some kind of whole- some recreation.
