w i: s i. i: v x NATALIE HREWTON Co-l re i lenl The Wesleyan Y.W.C.A. was founded in 1897 as one of the char¬ ter associations of this international student movement. It is the only religious organization on the campus and is inter-denomina¬ tional in its emphasis. Stimulation of spiritual growth is the aim of its broad program of worship, study, and action. Students are encouraged to begin each day with soft organ music and meditation at Morning Watch and to gather in small groups before bedtime for Taps. Wednesday night Vespers and a chapel service provide other op¬ portunities for weekly worship. Religious Emphasis Weeks and observances of special seasons, such as Christmas and Easter, high¬ light the year ' s program. Students are urged to participate in at least one of Y’s five com¬ missions for study of Christian faith, personal, community, and world affairs. These same commissions encourage action in each of these fields by fostering such projects as a Friendship Fund for missions and regular visits to local institutions for children. The scope of the program does not end here, however, hut em¬ braces any activity or interest which may further Christian living. “Y” OFFICERS Firnt Rote: M. C. € bb. I’hylli (.lough.

soil A I. The year 1953-54 marked a change in the history of Social Stand¬ ards. The Social Committee of the Fine Arts Campus combined with Social Standards of the Liberal Arts College to form one of the four major organizations. In the early fall the new Tri K Pirates were entertained at an informal dance, which depicted the deep South with “Basin Street in New Orleans.” November rolled around—and again preparations began for our annual “Homecoming” weekend. The first big formal dance of the year was climaxed with the presentation of the “Homecoming Queen.” Charm Week marked a good beginning for the new semester with many pointers on the meaning of charm and hints on how to attain it. Charm week ended with the Winter Formal where “Miss Charm¬ ing” candidates were presented. Spring Frolics weekend in May signaled the end of another Social Standards Calendar. The May Queen and her court were presented while the Dance Club provided entertainment for all. That night bows and frills, danced away the evening with their favorite beaux at the Spring Formal. So the curtain falls once again on a full and busy year for Social Standards. Co-Prenident JOYCE PARIS Junior-Senior Board— Sealed: Ealinc Halley, Jeannine Hin»on, Martha Neuffer.
