Et facta est lux. Let there be light, and there was light. There is something wonderfully positive and healing about light. With the dawning of each new day, new hopes and aspi¬ rations and new courage are born. The rising sun drives away the ghoulish goblins of the midnight horrors. Let there be light. It is at once the motto and the condi¬ tion of all progress that is worthy of the name. From chaos into order, from slumber into wakefulness, from torpor into the glow of life; it has been a condition of prog¬ ress that there should be light. God saw the light, that it was good. Coleridge in his lectures on Shakespeare, observed that Shakespeare ' s plays are distinguished from those of other dramatists by the characteristic of expectation in preference to surprise. It is like the true read¬ ing of the passage: God said, let there be light, and there was light ; not, there was light. As the feelings with which we startle at a shooting star, compared with that of watching the sunrise at the pre-established moment, such law is surprise compared with expectation. Society at large expects that a Wesleyan graduate is an educated, poised in¬ dividual with a Christian concern for true progress. And society is likewise surprised when such is not the case. Colleges are judged more by their products—graduates —than by their publicity. Yours is the high privilege of being the light of the world. May you shine on and on and on until time shall be no more! 12 _ 13 m MRS.

Treasurer Our first year at Wesleyan was like a soft, re¬ freshing summer rain. It was new to us, and rather surprising—as rain in summer always it. Each of us was an individual drop when we came, but as time passed we became united and dissolved our differ¬ ences to make a shower of growth and happiness. Then we moved into the Halls of Worthan and the clear skies of summer began to cloud. In our Sopho¬ more year we met discouragement and disappoint¬ ment; we feared a heavy storm. Through our cooper¬ ative efforts the dark clouds passed and we found that the drops had melted and the strength of union had blown the storm away. The storm fears left their mark and it was beau¬ tiful to behold. A rainbow appeared in the sky. The colors were the harmonious blending of characters and personalities, enriched by the struggles and de¬ spairs over which they had conquered. There was in the rainbow, next to the maturing green, a splash of bright, new energetic purple . . . our Little Sisters. And they have been as true and loyal to us as their name, the Purple Knights, implies. The rainbow was lovely. Its calmness and joy typified our Junior year at Wesleyan. Now our eyes are turned to the future. We look forward together to the rising sun of our final year. We are no longer apprehensive. Now we are eager, for we have weathered the storm together and the Green Knights are ready for tomorrow. JUNIORS 59 f JEAN ADAMS ARLENE ATKINS JANE ATKINSON JOANNE BLACKWELL Americus, Go.

Treasurer Now two of our four years have passed and we still feel that it ' s a wonderful world. In addition, we ' ve made the discovery that it ' s best to be just as you are. Perhaps we acquired a sophomore sense of perspective. We looked back to our Freshman days, and although we cherished each moment of our first year, we saw that we could not be the Freshman, the new class forever. Now there was another Fresh¬ man class. So with our Tri-K spirit felt anew, we eagerly planned Rat Week activities, and in no time it was over and we had made close friendships among the Freshmen, now real Wesleyannes. We were just as excited over Homecoming—not letting a little rain and delay dampen our spirits. We loved every minute S 0 P H 0 of Stunt Night—not only the big night but all the re¬ hearsals when we worked hard together and laughed often. We looked ahead to next year when we would sorrowfully lose our Big Sisters but gain our own Little Sisters. This idea still awed us. We looked back and saw that the past though a good beginning was gone. We looked expectantly forward to the future, but it is yet to be. So we lived each day as it came and even when our bodies and minds were tired and weary our spirit always carried us on, and our Sophomore days were wonder¬ ful, wonderful!

We showed our Royal purple when we won that soccer cup!

Spring ... a mambo craze was sweeping the na¬ tion and Purple Knight Mambo echoed through the hallowed halls of Wesleyan. A new spirit was born, and although the deserving Golden Hearts won the stunt cup, we won a spirit of unity and co-operation. It was with pride that we welcomed the young Golden Hearts on dormitory week-end, and we tried to show them that intangible thing known as Wesleyan spirit . . . and with that same spirit we are looking forward to our future years at Wesleyan.

From the time a girl enters the gates as a Wesleyanne she feels her deep responsibility as part of a truly effective government association. As she grows in her life at Wesleyan this responsibility becomes more vital to her. A major reason for the success of Wesleyan ' s Col¬ lege Government Association is the fact that its roots are deeply grounded in a workable Honor System which permeates every aspect of a young girl ' s life. Of course, it covers academic work, but from there its functions broaden to cover the girl ' s adherence to dormitory regulations and, at last to cover social be¬ havior at school and elsewhere. By following the standards set up by C.G.A. and helping to enforce its rules, each girl is not only help¬ ing the school but is disciplining herself as well. In this way she is becoming better prepared for life both in college and afterwards when she finds her own place i n the world. CAROLYN GLEATON President COLLEGE GOVERNMENT S. B. WARE, J. BENTON, B.

S. stand for? The answer is, ' Exact¬ ly what it says—Standards in our Social Life. This doesn ' t mean only dances, or teas, or be¬ havior—or dates, in the dining room or town. It ' s a remembering of our standards and an enlarging of them plus added new ones. We have had a full year—we met the freshmen, introduced them to new friends at the Freshman Dance. Our next step was Homecoming with all its happiness and gaiety and a memorable Fall Frolics built upon the theme Stairway to the Stars. Christmas Holidays came early this year followed by weeks of hard work and Saturday classes, but soon it was time for a trip to Candy Land at the winter formal. Still Social Standard ' s job was not done, for be¬ sides the everyday task of picking up coke bottles we were yet faced with the fashion show for High School Weekend and a wonderful finish to a wonderful year —May Day. These tasks didn ' t scare us—instead we looked forward to them with excitement and with happiness for we knew we were doing one of the important things which help keep our Wesleyan Jills from becoming a dull girl.

It has changed a great deal since it began fifty- six years ago, changed in staff, in content, in size. Even its name has changed from the Adelphian to Veterropt, a combination of the Latin words: ver- timus and optimus, meaning oldest and best. One thing, however, has remained the same. The purpose of this annual, as in the annuals of the past, has been to present a true picture of Wesleyan Col¬ lege during its most recent school year. Toward this goal the business and editorial staffs of the 1955 Veterropt have worked together. Seated. S. Zouctcs, Junior Ed., A. Morey, Snapshot Ed., N. Norton, Senior Ed. Standing: L. A.

Who says thou hast no voice to speak— To men in sorrow or in weal? It hears, it speaks, it has the power To send to every man on earth A message, whether frowed with ill, Or girded on with joy and mirth. Those bars of steel, those flying wheels Obey the lightning ' s swift command, And bring us music, speech, and verse, And pictured art from every land.

This was during the year 1902-03, and since that time, this publication has enjoyed a steady progress. The Wesleyan is a magazine published four times a year, and in it are found short stories, feature ar¬ ticles, poetry and any other type of creative writing. All the material is original and prepared by the stu¬ dents. Scribes is a literary organization whose member¬ ship depends upon writing ability and contributions to publications. The members of this organization must write for the Wesleyan and they put out one issue of the magazine. The new members must be elected by unanimous vote of the Scribes.

Since only Spanish is spoken at the meetings, the members have an opportunity to use the language both in programs and in natural conversation. A special project of the club was an informal Christmas dance. The queen of the dance carried out the Spanish Christmas custom by breaking a candy filled pinata. PAT ADAMS President A. Hankinson, C.

This year has been a real step forward in the homemaking department and we, as a newly organized club, are interested in becoming a beneficial group in our extra-curric¬ ular activities. Membership is open to all. However, the stu¬ dents in the homemaking courses compose the largest majority of its body. Our purpose is to leorn the mechanisms of running our homes, but equally important is the emphasis on the Christian ideals that should be foremost in every home. LUCY NEELY President 1st Row: M. M.

Its main purpose is to bring the students, both the liberal and fine arts, in contact with the creative trends of our time and to help them develop an appreciation of the arts. We have a variety of programs planned to stim¬ ulate interest in art. Speakers from the outside bring a great variety of topics with discussion per¬ iods for questions about understanding art and criteria. As always we carry on the tradition of the love and spirit and the understanding of the fine arts. B GLEE C L U The Glee Club members have for many years served as worthy representatives of Wesleyan in Southeastern music circles. Traveling through Flori¬ da, Alabama, Mississippi, Louisiana, and even to Washington, D. C., the group has not only display¬ ed outstanding musical achievements, but made friends for Wesleyan all along the road. The Glee Club is always ready to entertain at home too, furnishing music for many Macon clubs and func¬ tions. The Wesleyan Clee Club, composed of sixty girls, stands for efforts toward the highest standards in the great field of choral music. HELEN HORNE President 1st Row: M. E. Clark, M. Smith, P.

Our policy is to give every girl a chance to participate in a variety of activities, both team and individual. In all competitive sports, emphasis will be placed on the benefits of the individual par¬ ticipating rather than on the winning of champion¬ ships. The Athletic Association Board supervises all athletic activities which are extra-curricula. Through the managers of the different sports and representatives tournaments are set up the year round.

An aquacade is pre¬ sented annually and this year the theme was ' ' Olympian Rhythm ' a water interpretation of the relation of the Greek Deities to Man. After the Naiads gave their audience a Glimpse of the strange and beautiful humanized world where men ' s needs were fulfilled in their gods, yet where man was freed from the paralyzing fear of an omni¬ potent Unknown ' they sank again beneath the crystal depth that calls all things to himself and calls the Naiads to return to their play beneath the waters, carrying with them these thoughts that wander through eternity.

Acting upon this recommendation, the Board of Trustees at its annual meeting in May, 1924, established a society to be known as the Phi Delta Phi Honor Society. The purpose of the Society is to promote scholarship on the campus and to honor those students in the Liberal Arts College who have been out¬ standing for scholarship, character, and loyalty to the institution. Election of members is held twice a year, in the fall at the beginning of the senior year, and again at the close of the year when the senior records are complete. Members are elected by the Society from a list of students recommended by the faculty. The seniors included in this annual were elected in the fall of 1954. 124 125 V . ■ 8 WHO’S ELIZABETH WILSON MEMBERSHIP IN WHO ' S WHO AMONG STUDENTS IN AMERICAN UNIVERSITIES 126 ELIZABETH FORTSON TRUITT AND COLLEGES EMBODIES THE QUALITIES OF . . . 127 4wj—■ WHO FRANCES MOULTHROP . . .
