ANNE GRAUER Editor VIRGINIA WODTKE Business Manager BAHUAUD COLLEG THE MORTARBOARD at nineteen - atiy Published by the Junior Class for the student body HEW YORK CITY FOREWORD Many changes have occurred since Barnard was first housed at 343 Madi- son Avenue and we are deeply grate- ful that ours is the class to have the privilege of recording some of these changes in the fiftieth anniversary issue of Mortarboard. In compiling this yearbook and presenting it to the students of the college, we have tried, and hope we have in a measure suc- ceeded, in doing our part to com- memorate this year.

Sheffield. Born in Dubuque, Iowa, in 1864, Mr. Sheffield attended Williston Seminary, Yale University and Harvard Law School. He be- came a member of the New York Legislature in 1894 and for three years was Fire Commis- sioner of New York. From 1924 to 1927 he was United States Ambassador to Mexico, and in 1930 a special ambassador to Venezuela. He was a delegate to four National Republican Conventions and served in various state conventions. An able lawyer, a director of the Radio Corporation of America, and of the National Broadcasting Company, and of other business organizations, Mr. Sheffield found time to serve also on the boards of the Presbyterian Hospital, Trudeau Sanitarium, the Babies ' Hospital, and Barnard College. We knew him best as our trustee. He was elected to the Board of Trustees on February 8, 1918, until last fall when, because of poor health, he resigned as chairman but continued to remain a helpful member. With a genial warmth, he, as chairman, greeted the trustees as they arrived one by one for their meetings. His loyalty to the College and his admiration for Dean Gildersleeve he faithfully demonstrated. His ambitions for Barnard were great and he ofttimes remarked that he liked to think of Barnard College taking an important place in this great City of New York. His justice disclosed a patient tolerance for all; his strength lay in gentleness. The merry twinkle in his eye revealed an excellent sense of humor. He was beloved by all of us who knew him. EDITH MULHALL ACHILLES PROFESSOR EDWARD D. PERRY 1854-1938 When the news of Professor Perry ' s death reached me in far-off Mexico City a year ago, I tried sadly to imagine what Barnard College would be like without the affectionate interest and kindly help which that devoted friend had given unstintingly to generation after genera- tion of students. What would warm autumn days or sunny spring ones be like without that tall figure strolling slowly through the campus, pausing for a word with this young friend or that, giving to our college scene with its hurry- ing groups, its over rapid tempo, the suave slow graciousness of an earlier day. Few of this generation of college students can know much of Professor Perry ' s early ac- tive life as scholar and teacher — those arduous years at Columbia and in European univer- sities when he was making himself an author- ity in Greek and Sanscrit. By Barnard students he is remembered not so much for the learning which he carried so lightly and modestly, but for his interest in Greek Games, which have owed much of the beauty of their development to his devoted guidance. Class after class has known his friendly help with myths and invoca- tions, with costumes, with the speeches of priestesses and challengers, indeed with every part of the Games. Out of these contacts grew many friendships, friendships which were an immense privilege to the girls with whom he shared his ripe cul- ture, his playful wit, his high art of conversa- tion, his rare gift of graceful verse. It is not the least of the blessings that Barnard College has enjoyed that we have had on our campus all these years that delightful friend to show us the charm that could be given to ordinary life. For Professor Perry made an art of daily living, a gracious thing of every contact. He who loved to be called the College uncle has left his nieces forever in his debt.

This is what the freshmen, sophomores, and juniors think. How- ever, the opinion of the seniors on this question is decidedly to the contrary, for in their own words — they are more mature — they have a de- tached point of view — they see life steadily and see it whole — and above all and whatever it may mean, they are reapproaching reality. This is impressive. We had not the faintest idea that our friends were so wise. But now towards the end of their Barnard life they begin to show signs of having contemplated the college, the country, the world, and the uni- verse. What is more they know what is wrong with each of them. It is interesting to ponder the way in which this great store of wisdom has been accumulated. Certainly they did not arrive with it four years ago. In thinking back over their past (all the time shuddering at the thought that anybody should ever look back on ours), we find that as freshmen they had drummed into them the idea that certain things were ex- pected of them in life. They proved their ac- ceptance of this vital fact by losing Greek Games as freshmen and winning them as soph- omores. During their second year they also came to realize that in order to get along well one has to be a good listener. This was more or less imperative as no one listens to sopho- mores anyhow. Another principle gained at this time, an important one, was that book, not dog, is man ' s best friend. Then as juniors they added to their wealth of wisdom the pearly postulate that everything in this world is subject 26 MARCHIA MEEKER Vice-President EDWINA DUSENBERRY Secretary to change — this was particularly applicable to their choice of a major. And now that the seniors are full of wise thoughts and rich ideas, what are they doing? Some are going through the Who ' s Who for a good list of eligible men, and all have recommenced their correspond- ence with the boy back home. Many are salaaming before Miss Doty, professors, and father ' s business cronies in the hope of obtain- ing a chance to make good. But perhaps their prime activity at present is the raising of twenty dollars for a diploma. Father after being re- quested has merely replied that this is the fin- ishing touch and he refuses to have anything to do with the matter. Moreover, he is curious about where all the allowance he has sent his own dear darling has gone to. In fact he is firmly convinced that four years have been overly sufficient in which to save up the diplo- matic sum. It ' s true, he did break down and foot the bill for Junior Prom — but a diploma, why surely that ' s not his responsibility. So the seniors spend their spare moments informing the lower-classmen that father is a miser and won ' t you please be a sucker and buy a chair or a couple of old books. Usually they feel certain that some time during your college life you ' ll be in dire need of a Latin dictionary and aren ' t you lucky that they happen to have one which they hate to part with, but you can buy it for just a little more than they paid for it. So the lower-classmen dicker and the diplomas are secured. And although the noble seniors will not be with us next year, there will be relics from their glorious past to comfort us. OFFICERS 27 JUNIOR CLASS OFFICERS MARY MALONEY President REINE TRACY Vice-President MAUDE VANCE Treasurer ULIA GRAY Secretary There was a class, a noble class, At Barnard College. (Cheers). It came in 1936, And stayed for years and years. For three long years, to be exact, Beneath the yoke of knowledge, It bowed. Sometimes it wondered why It ever came to college. But now at last the years are up! (Loud cat calls.) Ladies, please! And looking back, things seem more fair. And done with greater ease. Proud 1940 knows no inky Blot on its escutcheon, And it has many points of pride That I, for one, shall touch on. With tooth and nail, as freshmen, 1940 held at bay The sophomores, with eyes aflame, And eager for the fray. And 1940 lost Greek Games — Ah, proudly say it, too! Because it was traditional And what it meant to do; (Hoarse laughter from the galleries). Silence! O, sceptic dames, The high spot of the second year Was winning the Greek Games. AND HISTORY Of course, as Froshies and as Sophs, The teas and parties flourished. We flocked to them with fluttering hearts — And came out better nourished. Then next, the title Junior Graced the name of 1940. Class conscious then we all became, A bit aloof and haughty. But soon we were reduced again To the niche in which we fitted, We found our freshman sisters were A dam sight quicker-witted! The Junior Dance — for weeks before, Our classes were neglected; For all our study was the date And hair-do we ' d selected. The floor was rippled like a lake. Upon it floated skirts — Immense affairs, containing all The 1940 flirts. The men were smooth, and ooh, la la! They trucked and shagged right well. And many a one fell prey that night To many a Barnard Belle. The Junior Show was likewise great; It bared the competition Of three, of whom our Arthur Rat Was the object of ambition. Ah, 1940 was a class Well worthy of devotion. And so my tale is endsd — ' Loud sobs of mixed emotion). 29 35 39 42 ALICE WILLIS Fine Arts ELIZABETH WOODRUFF Psychology 0 i I ft JEAN WILLIS History MOLLY WYLAND Religion IRMA ZWERGEL English CAMERA SHY OLGA BAHLINGER Music CLAIRECE BLACK Fine Arts JUNE CASEY History LUTZ CRESPO Zoology NANETTE EISLER Sociology BABETTE GOLDMAN French EUGENIE GRIER Sociology SUSANNE HEIMAN Music ROSALIE HOYT Physics LOIS INGERSOLL English Composition JEAN LYONS Religion ANNE MEDING History REBECCA PRICE English MARY RAGNO Italian CATHERINE STECKEL Philosophy DOROTHY STEWART History EMILY F.

After the evening in the Grand Ballroom at the Hotel Pierre, even capable committee members bemoaned the finale of an occasion that had kept them running for weeks. The versatility of Barnard girls was remarkably apparent at this affair. Immediately after the delicious supper, the orchestra presented an interlude of waltzes which no one could resist. In swirling hoop skirts, with flowers in their hair or bouquets clasped in lace-mitted hands, Barnardites renewed the Spirit of Old Vienna. Later, however, when Leo Dryer and his orchestra swung into some of the tunes from Junior Show, skirts were lifted from the floor and almost everyone indulged in a bit of shagging. Virginia Mull added to the enjoyment by singing one of the lyrics. Dancing continued until three o ' clock when the orchestra began Roar Lion Roar. The whole-hearted enjoyment of everyone present was uniquely expressed at this moment. The entire assemblage took part in a spontaneously initiated snake dance which wound on through the playing of several college tunes and ended the evening in an exciting whi rl. It may well be predicted that the programs made of white leather and embossed with the Barnard seal, will be cherished by most of those who attended.

Six titles were proposed, used for a time and then gently disposed of before some brilliant mind conceived of the title which adhered: Forty Winks. The second act, showing among other things the ten old ladies of the Supreme Court sitting on their own packing case, and the third act, a futuristic double entendre, revolving around the antics of a human race in which everyone had a twin, were completed two weeks before the performance. Rehearsals were encouraged by the fact that practically no one came to them. The general procedure at a rehearsal was to wait until half an hour after the scheduled time and then say, Well, since there are only three of us here, we might as well go. We have two more rehearsals before the show, anyway. All of this chaos went on within a general framework which showed four Barnard women in competition for a fellowship consisting of Arthur le Rat, a Columbia man. In their attempt to win him, three of them wrote histories of Barnard College — its past, present and future. The fourth, however, abstained from such literary exercise, and merely made up his mind for him about which one to choose: herself, of course. Miraculously order came out of the chaos on performance nights and the show was not only a social, but a financial success.

On the other hand, it is famous for its inertia. The general opinion is that this class is barely alive for it gives such little sign of existence. However, the sophomores are ac- tive in a most subtle way. They may not be doing but they are thinking. While freshmen are flunking the exit, and juniors are thinking up titles for their show, and seniors are looking for jobs or husbands, the sophomores are sitting in silent corners brooding over their pasts. They develop a lot of self-esteem when they contem- plate the follies of the year before, such as afternoon tea three and four times a day, and shagging up and down the halls at three o ' clock in the morning. It is impossible to say exactly what kind of amusements they go in for now, but it can be noticed that the going in for occurs much less often. On the whole sopho- mores tend to become more bookish. They have each read a few books by now. Also they have seen a few paintings, and played a couple of records, and been to the Ballet Russe, all of which results in discussions which are quite arty. Mention of the possibilities of a fourth dimension, and numerous quotations tinge sophomore sessions. There is no quiet wisdom here but even so there is a tendency towards mental betterment. The previous year improvement was purely a physical thing; walking in a straight line, plenty of Vitamin D, PHYLLIS WIEGARD President ALICE DRURY Vice-President VERNA MAYBERRY Secretary 58 and whole wheat bread. Now all this is changed. Attention is focused on the mind — on the mind! No longer are they contented with secondary sources; first things come first. Happily they do not gorge themselves as for- merly; mind over matter. Studying is now commenced at eight o ' clock instead of ten; procrastination is the thief of time. Playtime is HELEN TAFT Treasurer drastically reduced; work is freedom. It is very obvious that the sophomores have arrived at the golden age of reform. Before them they see new and broad horizons adorned with the fruits of learning and the pearls of wisdom. Oh, glori- ous youth! It would be false to infer from this that the sophomores have found themselves en- tirely. They have not. There are still nights of pounding on the wall, when the great ques- tions of what have I done, where am I going are pondered. But these occur less often now, and they arise in the morning and tackle their Botany notes with an I-can-do-it feeling. So although the sophomores are not conspicu- ous for running around the country-side, intro- ducing some new dance step, or reorganizing the college, — all is not quiet on the western front. For the sophomores do train some fine horses, and they do snap, crackle, pop at their yearly hop, and they do pro and con the Eng- lish comprehensive before choosing their ma- jor. The sophomores are not dead, they only sleep. JOANN McQUISTAN President EMILY GUNNING Secretary FRESHMAN ' pHE freshmen of Barnard College are lucky and unlucky at the same time. In some cases the rest of the students are mere slaves to them; telling them what courses to take, drilling them in the correct method of filling out blanks, and warning them about the proper type of tacks to drive in dormitory walls. When they make their triumphal entrance in Septem- ber they are immediately launched on great social careers by the old girls. Teas, picnics, dances, and drug store dates — the freshmen sparkle at all of these, while upper-classmen sit in the library brooding over the thought that they honestly don ' t know a soul. After one has dusted some old books carefully and then pro- ceeded to study, a freshman will shag in the room and tell you about the delicious food she has just eaten, or the delightful man she has just met — makes one feel old, don ' t you know? As for those freshmen who live in the dorms, they don ' t have to suffer at all for being what they are. They don ' t run errands for the others, they don ' t have to polish upper-classmen ' s shoes. All that is required of them is to answer the phone — but they are never in and it ' s al- ways for them. They are lucky in more matters than that of service for they have a weapon, unbeknownst to them, which they wield on all. People are always talking about the way in which upper-classmen make the freshmen con- scious of their extreme youth. No one, how- ever, makes mention of the way in which the 60 MARGARET WHITTEN Vice-President MARY DAMROSCH Treasurer CLASS freshmen make the others feel ancient. This is done in a very unconscious manner through the mere question, Oh, are you twenty-three? If they ever realized the galling effect produced by this interrogation, they probably would be- gin asking, Oh, are you twenty-eight? An- other of their tricks works in an opposite direc- tion, for while the rest of us go out with boys, the freshmen, according to what they say, never have met other than men. Their advantages are not confined to these several things, for they have a high place in the thoughts of the admin- istration. The staff loves the freshmen for they are such an enthusiastic, effervescent, vocif- erous, responsive group. When they plan some- thing it ' s got to be a mammoth piece of work. Four horses are not enough for them in Greek Games — each girl wants to be a horse. Well, why not? We ' ll have thousands and thousands of horses, a handful of elephants, and yes, oh yes, a dinosaur! If it is a question of where to hold the freshman dance, the immediate deci- sion is that even Columbia Library would be too small, and the cry of Madison Square Gar- den is raised. This we-can-do-it attitude is like a cold drink of water to the administration — makes them feel so alive. Others realize gloat- ingly that freshman life is not all robins and roses. The first few latenesses, the first Zoology quiz, the first time the library doesn ' t get its book back when it wants it — the freshmen of Barnard College are lucky and unlucky at the same time. 61 THE FIRST YEARS OF THE ALUMNAE ASSOCIATION DURING the fall of 1894, the first two classes of Barnard College met to discuss the for- mation of an Alumnae Association. After many meetings, on January 25, 1895, such an organi- zation was created, under the name of The Associate Alumnae of Barnard College, by the following graduates: Class of ' 93 Louise G. Farrant Jessica Boyne Garretson (Mrs. John O ' Hara Cosgrave) Alice Maplesden Keys Clarita Mercedes Knight (Mrs. Oscar Erlandsen) Alice Kohn (Mrs. Sigmund Pollitzer) Laura Grace Levy (Mrs. Harry Frederick Jackson) Mary Stuart Pullman Louise Merritt Stabler (Mrs. Howard Parker) and Class of ' 94 Evangeline R. Bridgart (Mrs. Arthur Bander) Ella Fitzgerald Bryson (Mrs. Frank Gilbert Bryson) Helen Crocker Agnes Irwin (Mrs. Charles Sears Baldwin) Eliza Jones Laura Landau A Constitution was adopted providing for four officers, President, Vice-President, Recording Secretary and Treasurer; and for three Commit- tees, Executive, Finance and Conference. The last being intended to form a link between Trus- tees Alumnae and undergraduates. The officers chosen were: President, Alice Maplesden Keys Vice-President, Agnes Irwin Recording Secretary, Eliza Jones Treasurer, Mary Stuart Pullman The Association had two main objectives. Firstly, to keep in touch with the College and each other, the graduates that had received the opportunities afforded them by Barnard. These opportunities had been provided through the devoted work of a group of New Yorkers who had achieved the opening of a College under the auspices of Columbia University, for the higher education of women, and who finan- cially supported the venture for many years. The main purpose, however, although it then seemed distant, was the financial assistance of Barnard, by its Alumnae. Through the kindness of Mrs. A. A. Ander- son, and three neighbors, who offered the Alum- nae the use of the beautiful gardens at 3, 5, 7 and 9 East 37th Street, a Garden Party was given on May 13, 1896. The Yale Glee Club and the Hungarian Band furnished music. The day was beautiful and the affair was successful socially and financially, netting $2904.00, the first Alumnae gift to the College. The second venture was a Course of Lectures at private houses, by Columbia Professors, one of whom is now the head of the University, President Nicholas Murray Butler. The lec- turers most generously gave their service, the Course was most interesting and again a con- siderable sum was realized and given to the College. On March 8, 1900, seven classes having then been graduated, a Musicale was given at the residence of Mrs. Anson Phelps Stokes. Mme. Schumann-Heink, M. Pol. Plancon, Mr. Francis Rogers, Miss Susan Strong, Miss Harriet Cady and Mr. Luckston gratuitously rendered a de- lightful program and the concert was a brilliant affair artistically, and its receipts of $1451.00 were presented to the College. One other item of those early years should be emphasized. This was the decision in 1898 by the Board of Trustees, to add to their number an Alumna Trustee to be elected by the gradu- ates and to serve for a term of four years. This was a step of great importance to the Alumnae Association and was accepted as a proof of the appreciation by the Board of the small serv- ices the Alumnae had been able to render to their Alma Mater. Miss Florence Colgate (Mrs. Gino C. Speranza) was the first Alumna Trus- tee, Mrs. Frank Gilbert Bryson, the second, and the present writer the third to fill this office. Thus began, on a small scale the Associate Alumnae of Barnard College; which at present has an active membership of twenty-five hun- dred. The College has graduated about fifty- eight hundred women, of whom forty-three hun- dred live in the Metropolitan district. The year 1939 is the Fiftieth Anniversary of Barnard ' s start. It would be a fitting time for every Alumna not now enrolled in the Association to add her name to its active lists and thus prove her loyalty to the College from which she derived such a richness of intellectual opportunity.

Dean Gildersleeve was guest of honor, and seated with her at the speakers ' table were officers of the Association, Trustees, Assistants to the Dean and the Undergraduate President. The Alumnae then adjourned to 304 Barnard where they saw the Barnard Movies, some for the first time, some for the second and third. Then came the Fashion Show in which undergraduates modeled costumes of the past fifty years, and the Barnard cavalcade which was presented in the form of a running commentary of world events and Barnard progress read by Miss Jane Eisler. Accompanying her, Miss Marion Callan played a musical background of the hit songs which were popular in each era. The time was divided into six periods: the Nineties, the first decade, Pre-War, War, the Twenties, and the Thirties. At the end of the descriptive comment, the four models appeared dressed in the street costume, gym uniform, afternoon dress, and evening gown of the age. Those students who gave their time and their enthusiasm so generously to make the show a success were: Pauline Fleming, Genevieve Arnspiger, Ruth Cummings, Ruth Stibbs, Mar- jorie Barr, Winifred Bach, Barbara Reade, Eliza- beth Cornwall, Jean Ackerman, Eleanor Webb, Barbara Sapinsley, Betty Foye, Anne Grauer, Helene Bach, Betty Hanf, Isabel Gleasing, Mar- garet Eitelbach, Betty Clifford, Alice Willis, Priscilla Burge, Evelyn Healy, Deborah Allen, Evelyn Hagmoe, Frances Ricketts, and Joan Woodard. There followed the Dean ' s tea to the alumnae and the day was concluded by an undergradu- ate-alumnae basketball game. BARNARD OPERA BENEFIT J 1 HE Barnard College Opera Benefit was held on February 24, 1939. The opera chosen was the matinee performance of Massenet ' s Thais, starring Helen Jepscn and John Charles Thomas. The occasion was a gala advance celebration of the Fiftieth Anniversary of the College and its proceeds were presented to the Scholarship Fund. Miss Mabel Parsons, who was chairman of a similar benefit twenty-five years ago, again headed the active and hard- working committees that were responsible for the success of this year ' s event. Headquarters were in Room 20 of the Barbizon Hotel; teas and musical lectures promoted the interest that was spread throughout New York City; dozens of alumnae gave their time and energy to make the occasion a proud one. To the opera-lovers of the city, whether inter- ested in Barnard or not, the benefit was a wel- come opportunity to see and hear this beautiful revival of a long-loved performance. Miss Jep- son ' s portrayal of Thais and Mr. Thomas ' inter- pretation of the tragic monk reconvinced that audience of the genius of Massenet ' s lyric work. Mr. Johnson of the Metropolitan is to be thanked for giving the college the opportunity of pre- senting this lovely opera. The committees were headed by Miss Par- sons, general chairman; Mrs. George S.

It includes: five officers of the Association itself, the four class presidents, the editor of Bulletin, the presi- dent of the Athletic Association, and the president of the dormitories. Naturally each of these representatives is able to present to the group the views of her particular electors more adequately than anyone else could. Moreover the councilors are elected on the basis of due consideration of their own broad views concerning the student body as a whole. This is essential because of the complete executive power vested in them, although outside relations and important changes of policy must be submitted to the approval of the Faculty Committee on Student Affairs. Besides performing administrative duties the Council attempts to establish a link between the faculty and the students. Problems of various student organizations are carried by it to the proper faculty authority, policies of assembly are executed, and meetings with the Dean and the Faculty Commit- tee on Student Affairs are held regularly. Contact with other colleges and the consequent development of a realiza- tion of the problems and activities of the inter-collegiate world is also con- sidered by the council as an important phase of college life to be promoted by them, a policy much appreciated by the College as a whole. In accord with this view it elects representatives to attend intercollegiate conferences from nominations submitted by the Representative Assembly.

At the year ' s first Assembly, the Chairman explains the honor system to incoming students. She asks their signature of the honor code, which requires scrupulous honesty throughout college life, and requests but does not demand that infrac- tion of such honesty be reported to the Board. Preventive work is carried on, at examination time, through addresses to the Freshmen and through distribu- tion of printed regulations, which faculty members are respectfully request ed to read. Dishonesty cannot be completely averted, nor can all cases be apprehended. It is hoped that intelligent handling of such cases as arise will tend to enlighten public opinion on the subject. Cases are investigated with extreme secrecy out of regard for the reputa- tion of the student involved. The Chairman may consider a case in consulta- tion only with the Dean, or with the help of any or all Board members, of the college physician, or of generously interested faculty members. Star Chamber methods of trial have long gone out of fashion; a student is presumed innocent unless she freely confesses her guilt. They are frequently accompanied by individual proctoring to guard the student from suspicion during her next examinations. In almost all cases of acknowledged guilt, the girl has admitted that Honor Board has been genuinely and unobtrusively helpful in effecting a satisfactory readjustment. 1939— Anne Milman, Chairman; Barbara Den- 1941— Vera Arndt, Priscilla Burge neen, Evelyn Hoole 1940 — Ann Strobridge, Virginia Wodtke 1942 — Geraldine Danzer, Jane Devonshire 07 REPRESENTATIVE ASSEMBLY T) EPRESENTATIVE ASSEMBLY, working as an efficient legislative body of student government under the revised constitution, consists of about seventy-five students who strive, at the semi-monthly meetings, to give an adequate cross section of campus problems and opinions. A major accomplishment this year has been the launching and putting into action of a new system of handling the finances of undergraduate organi- zations. This plan, suggested by the Undergraduate Treasurer, Margaret Boyle, provides for a reserve fund in the Undergraduate Treasury with which to meet any emergency expenditures that unexpectedly overtax the resources of a regularly chartered student organization. This new system provides that budgets of each club, publication, class, or other activity be submitted for consideration to a committee appointed by student council and headed by the undergraduate treasurer. The resulting appropriations suggested by this committee, after viewing the available resources as a whole, are then sub- mitted to representative assembly for final consideration. Thus, the appor- tioning of funds is now under careful consideration of a group instead of being mainly the responsibility of one person. The other outstanding undertaking of representative assembly this year was the setting up of a refugee committee, headed by Mabel Houk, for the purpose of bringing a refugee student to Barnard. Routine business of the year included the selection of delegates to repre- sent Barnard at various conventions and the acceptance of reports on the American Youth Congress, Silver Bay Conference, the Swarthmore Interna- tional Relations Conference, and the American Student Union Convention. 68 SENIOR PROCTORS A PPROACH any Barnard girl and ask her bluntly, What are senior proctors, anyway? and a dazed look will come into her eyes. She will stare at the ceiling or the sky, as the case may be, and say, Senior proctors? Well . . . why, senior proctors are. . . . Well, I don ' t know exactly, but they sort of look after things, I think. To the casual questioner, who leaves the problem unsolved, senior proctors take on a nebulous halo. They seem legendary figures whose function is known only to the select few, in spite of the fact that they were honored at an all-college tea on November 2, where each was presented with a white carnation to wear for identification and a silver key decorated by the college seal. These thirty-six girls are chosen from the senior class for their executive ability and for a high academic record. They supervise examinations, when- ever necessary, and enforce the rules of the college and of the undergraduate association. With much urging they reluctantly admit that most of their work is stopping those people who wander into 119th Street or sit on the north steps of Barnard Hall with lighted cigarettes, forgetful of smoking rules. Yes, senior proctors are definitely active on the campus. They are not unnecessarily honored figures, but executives who discharge a difficult and somewhat unpleasant duty with such efficiency and above all with such miraculous unobtrusiveness that students obey the rules and yet remain unconscious of restriction. JANE BELL President ex-officio JEAN MORRIS Vice-President 69 RESIDENCE HALLS CHARLOTTE HALL President MARGARET GRANT Vice-Presidents DOROTHY STOCKWELL DORIS WILLIAMS Secretary DORIS MYERS Treasurer RUTH STIBBS Social Chairman TN THE two residence halls, Brooks and Hewitt, the atmosphere is quite - 1 - cosmopolitan, for here live girls from forty-three states and numerous foreign countries. This experience of living with students from different parts of the world is very profitable; one not only learns to do the rhumba as it is done in South America but also enlarges her knowledge of geography. More impor- tant than this, however, is the opportunity of conversing with an exchange student in a language other than English. There are of course some unfor- tunate incidents in connection with this, as the case of the girl who dined at the French table and nearly starved to death because she was so busy with grammatical construction. Usually any calamity of any kind is unheard of, and if one will just pay her house dues, refrain from throwing things off balconies, and not turn the window sill into an ice-box, life will go on without a hitch. Days will be spent in giving advice to everyone else on how to combine work with play; one will borrow from another soapflakes or men; and all will try to take off or put on a little more weight. Then of course there is the social life of the dorm students. This has a wide range. For people who have a passion for picnicking on the Palisades, kind provision is made of box lunches and rope for climbing. The more formal girls take their relaxation in the music room. Here they stay for hours entertaining all with variations on Narcissus. There are also the more elaborate occasions as the coffee hours, supper dances, and the Beaux Arts Ball. The latter is carried off in the spirit of Old Vienna with a touch of the Mardi Gras. But it is during the Yule season that the social life of the resident student is at its height. At this time one sparkles at teas, parties, and the Christmas Dance. The old custom of carolling is fully observed. And perhaps one of the most memorable occasions of dorm life is the senior-singing. A few evenings before the begin- ning of vacation, the seniors dressed in their gowns and carrying lighted 70 candles march through the halls of both buildings and carol to the lower classmen. Lesser holidays, such as Hallowe ' en, also receive observance in the form of a wonderful dinner accompanied by candlelight and olives. These social functions are planned by the Executive Committee which is made up of residents from both halls. Among the duties of the group is the regulation of the much-discussed fire-drills and the unwished-for check-up on latenesses. In general Exec lays down the law. The other-than-academic activities of the dorm students are not planned by the house committee alone. There is naturally much spontaneous diversion. The dignity of these college women is not yet so highly developed that they shut their eyes to anything so gross as a good old fashioned water fight or a nocturnal spring dance. A higher type of amusement which is sometimes indulged in is the game of bridge — but Russian Bank and double solitaire were particularly favored this year, so much so, that they no longer are played. Those who have a domestic turn of mind sometimes borrow a fireplace, if they are not fortunate enough to own one, and serve tea in front of a roaring hearth. Cooking in the kitchenette provided on every floor rarely advances beyond the boiling water stage but there is one known case of a baked cake. The most common pleasure, how- ever, is that of conversation and by the end of four years this has truly developed into an art. Quite often the discussion hinges on the Brooks-Hewitt feud. This centers around the issue of which dorm is the more desirable place in which to live. Those who propagandize for Hewitt point out its large basins, modem lighting fixtures, and buzzer system. While the girls who favor Brooks laud its full-length mirrors, and whisper tales of a ghost who haunts the halls. All are agreed on one thing, nevertheless, namely, that the newly decorated music room and beau-parlors are the best things on the campus. More than this there is a great deal of satisfaction on the part of the seniors concerning their new mattresses — and the freshmen, sophomores, and juniors feel that they have something to live for. As they did it . . . LIFE IN 72 As we do it THE DORM AMERICAN YOUTH CONGRESS • THE AMERICAN YOUTH CONGRESS with which Barnard ' s Representative Assembly is affiliated is a permanent federation of sixty- four national and local youth organizations throughout the country. In connection with its legislative work, it has a director who does research work and meets with Congressional committees to present the measures the Amer- ican Youth Congress would like to have passed. Each year a Pilgrimage for Jobs and Education is sent to Washington which, joined by adult authorities testifies before the Senate. Also, the local groups join in a model legislature on health, recreation, crime prevention, foreign policy, and agriculture, as well as on employ- ment and education. Last summer a conference was held at Bald- win-Wallace College in Berea, Ohio, to make definite plans for the coming World Youth Con- gress to be assembled at Vassar College in August, and to start working on plans for the American Youth Congress exhibit for the World ' s Fair. -Elizabeth Shields-Collins from England, the Secretary of the World ' s Youth Congress, was the principal speaker. One of the outstanding achievements of the American Youth Congress this year was the founding of the Eleanor Roosevelt Fellowship to be awarded on June 5 at the World ' s Fair to the youth who has accomplished most for his fellows during the past year. Mrs. Roosevelt, for whom the scholarship was named because of her achievements for the young people of America, dedicated the fellowship at a dinner held in February. INTERNATIONAL RELATIONS CLUB ' ' J ' HE International Relations Conference at Swarthmore was an epitome and crystalliza- tion of the work of the International Relations Club. Its tone and purpose was evidenced by the simple fact that no definite program was outlined and no rigid conclusions were neces- sarily reached. Rather, the delegates, repre- sentatives of all the major colleges in the Mid- dle Atlantic area, contributed information and expressed their opinions freely. All shades , of political opinion were welcomed, and the give- and-take atmosphere engendered by the meet- ing of diverse minds together with the variety of ideas collected from persons of different po- litical and different ideological backgrounds, was both healthy and stimulating to each indi- vidual representative. In addition to the ex- pression of collegiate opinion, fact and faculty viewpoint were gleaned from the guest speak- ers and the advisers of each conference group. Delegates were specifically prepared to attend a particular conference group, and such matters as Latin-American relations, American foreign policy, and the Far Eastern situation were dis- cussed in detail. Since the conference was un- der the auspices of the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace, which serves as a central organization for individual clubs, a clearing house for ideas, and a dispenser of literature, delegates had the opportunity of learning of procedures in other clubs and of the diverse forms of club organizations. The whole was an example of individual club practice on a larger scale, and serves to illustrate the free discussion which the International Relations Club attempts to encourage. IRMA ZWERGEL President MABEL HOUK Secretary . 74 SILVER BAY CONFERENCE ' HE SILVER BAY CONFERENCE, managed by the Student Christian Move- ment, was held for the third time in June, 1938, as a co-educational project. 259 students from colleges all over New York State gathered at the delightful conference spot, Silver Bay-on-Lake George, to study current religious problems and to enjoy fellowship on an inter-faith basis. The theme of the conference was Sources of Power for Realistic Living, and in all the discussion groups the spiritual resources for the practical applica- tion of great religious teachings were emphasized. Different groups discussed with enthusiasm the place of religion in the political and social order, in inter- national affairs, and in personal relations. The morning assemblies, led by Kirby Page, stressed the topics of political and economic phases of life which must be met realistically by youth today. Rabbi Philip Bernstein, one of the conference ' s leaders, led a stimulation course on Our Hebrew Christian Heritage, which led to increased under- standing between two of the groups represented — a vital need in the light of present problems. Presenting religion on an intellectual as well as on an inspirational plane, the conference attempted to awake students to the need for realistic spiritual living in a materialistic and chaotic world. The Barnard group, headed by Anne M eding, was sent by the different classes, Student Council, Representative Assembly, and the Trustees. Those attending last J une were Jean Allison, Charlotte Hall, Elizabeth Jackson, Margaret Boyle, Ruth Taubenhaus, Doris Williams, Millicent Bridegroom, Margaret Pardee, Winifred Anderson, Helen Geer, Lorraine Nelson, Dorothy Clark, Marian Riley, and Marian Lynn. LAND AND BUILDING FUND The Undergraduate Committee for the Fiftieth Anniversary Fund was organized three years ago for the purpose of raising student interest in the project for a new building on the plot of land at 119th Street and Riverside Drive. This year the committee has carried on this work, but emphasizing the celebration of Barnard ' s Fiftieth Anniversary with the idea of making the students aware of the work being done by the Senior Committee. The first event of the year was the showing of the Barnard movies on Wednesday, November 18, at four and five o ' clock in room 304, Barnard Hall. These movies were made the previous spring under the auspices of the Alumnae Association. They were technicolor pictures of activities at Barnard, covering all aspects of college life. The presentation of the films was accom- panied by the serving of cider and doughnuts in the College Parlor. The Committee next undertook the sale of tickets to undergraduates for the benefit performance of Thais at the Metropolitan Opera House. The proceeds augmented the Alumnae Scholarship Fund. The last feature of the year was the Fiftieth Anniversary Week. Among the events which occurred were an exhibition of Barnardians, past, present, and future, a showing of the Barnard movies, and, in conjunction with the Athletic Association, an entertainment at their banquet which used the Fiftieth Anniversary as its theme. T he climax of the week was the Spring Dance managed by Margaret Pardee. Barbara Ridgway Chairman Carolyn Brackenridge Business Manager Jane Bell Ruth Cummings Margaret Pardee Anne Meding Helen Geer Louise Van Baalen Deborah Allen Natalie Salley Phyllis Snyder PRESS BOARD Whenever you ' re in doubt as to the way in which your Barnard activities become leading articles in your home town newspaper, which your delighted family invariably clips out and sends to you, rest assured that it is Press Board ' s work. This organization is the undergraduate service that submits articles to out-of-town newspapers concerning those students who are not residents of New York City. Limited to eight in number for the sake of efficiency, the group works in close conjunction with Miss Martha Comen of the Phoenix News Bureau. They send releases to newspapers in cities and towns all over the country, keeping in constant touch with them, at the same time obtain- ing a grounding in professional journalism which later may prove very valu- able to them. Interesting contacts with leaders in the magazine and news- paper world are made, also, through occasional teas held in their honor. This year a new method of selecting members was introduced. A series of tryouts wsre open to all those interested in participating in Press Board ' s activity. Appointments were made from these contestants by a committee including Miss Weeks, Miss Helen Erskine, and the Chairman of the Board. All students with journalistic tendencies, however, are eligible to try out for Press Board at the beginning of the year. Serving on it gives the members practical experience as journalists, and, in addition to this advantage, they become the instruments for distributing college news and thus publicizing Barnard. Barbara Reade Barbara Sapinsley Chairman Secretary-Treasurer QUARTERLY JN her editorial for the first issue of Quarterly this year Miriam Weber stated that, Any magazine that meets the public eye makes certain demands in the way of craftmanship and good taste. Of necessity, ours are neither unbearably strict, nor unbearably inflexible. We are not the best critics, we are not the best crafts- men, and we are irrepressibly given to artistic experi- mentation. Within these limitations we try to publish a magazine that has some technical veneer, and some degree of originality. With characteristic efficiency the staff of Quarterly has produced on each issuing date a magazine directly in accord with these modest aspirations and in many instances surpassing them. The integration of material that grew from a diverse assortment of contributions was a result of careful dis- cussions attended by all members of the staff and others at which the most unusual contributors offered their suggestions. Moreover, these laboratory sessions resulted in a selection of material of interest to all students. Although a literary magazine, Quarterly did not hesitate to present articles on current social problems. In addition to this appeal to the interests of its readers, feature articles by faculty members were initiated. Further acquaintance with some of the favored pro- fessors was fostered as well by the much appreciated profiles, vivid biographical sketches, appearing as usual in each issue. Books reviewed were chosen with an eye to widening the scope of the magazine. As a con- sequence of these procedures, Quarterly has been enjoyed this year especially by the undergraduate body as a whole. BULLETIN PHE bi-weekly paper has continued valiantly this year in its attempt to provide a mirror in which the stu- dents may see themselves. The staff has attempte d to present impartially and adequately all phases of stu- dent life. Moreover, news of the outside world of interest to the college, has often appeared. A marked amount of attention has been paid to the lighter side of campus life as well as to serious events, by increasing considerably the number of features dot- ting the paper. Queries attempting to discover the opinions of Barnard and Columbia students about each other, or exclusively feminine opinions on varied topics have brightened the tone of the paper and added to its informative content. The editorial page has also in- cluded three new columns, always presenting intrigu- ing views of their authors, if not shared ones. Two other features on this page which now seem almost essential, are About Town and a column on the latest swing recordings. Mechanical perfection in all phases of the paper has been stressed. In order to facilitate the achievement of this, Mr. John S. Hamilton, instructor at the Columbia School of Journalism, addressed the staff on the art of news writing, giving pointers on writing, make-up and other technicalities. The beat system has been con- tinued this year as another means of achieving pro- fessional completeness. Under this plan each reporter is responsible for reporting all events within a special field of activity. The results have been an unusually complete and easily read presentation of significant news. ANNE GRAUER Editor MORTARBOARD Because this is Barnard ' s fiftieth anniver- sary and there is a great deal of now and then comparison in our book, we thought that it would be fun to see how Mortarboard had developed since first it was published by the Class of 1893. We looked through all the books and found that Mortarboard has changed VIRGINIA WODTKE much in scope and theme but that the purpose Business Manager , . , of providing a record of a school year ana giving enjoyment while doing so has remained the same. The initial volume was a slim one, containing mostly statistical informa- tion about the class. There were no photographs, only a few decorations sketched around the edges of some of the pages. In the following years this general layout was maintained but more was added with each publication. The printed matter became increasingly personal, including class histories and minute biographies. One ambitious book inaugurated a new style by sporting individual sketches of each of the juniors, an idea which has since developed into the use of separate photographs. We noticed that many early editions contained more compositions in the form of witty essays, scandal columns, and poetry than have been printed in several years. With the expansion of Barnard, the number of organizations and activities has increased tenfold and so much of our limited space is con- cerned with these that little room remains for original endeavor. What we have introduced, together with the records, we present to you, hoping you will obtain as much pleasure in the reading as we had in the making.

The newly found theatrical enthusiasts were divided into groups, each of which prepared and rehearsed a bit of a drama, the various phases of which were judged by club members. Results of this procedure permitted the entrance of a comparatively large group of students into the club. With this increased strength it faced the problems of an extremely ambitious fall production and successfully solved them. On December 9th and 16th Brinkerhoff stage burst into all the color and gaiety of the Elizabethan Theatre. The Knight of the Burning Pestle galloped bravely across the stage on his broomstick horse, and all the other characters of Beaumont and Fletcher ' s comedy were portrayed as well with spirit and finesse. The production was under the direction of Mr. Anton Hardt, founder and director of the Roadside Theatre, Washington, D. C. Accompanied by music and the intervals between acts filled with dancing and songs, the play was presented in true Elizabethan manner, a continuous performance without footlights or curtain before an audience of young gallants seated on the stage. After the second presentation of the play a dance was held in the theater at which both actors and audience celebrated its success. In the Spring a program of three one-act plays, directed by students, and including only students of Barnard in the casts was presented and accepted by the college with enthusiasm. During the interim between productions the club attended theatre parties and heard talks on various phases of dramatic presentations. GERTRUDE SMITH President NINETTA di BENEDETTO Vice-President DOROTHY STOCKWELL Secretary 82 EL CIRCULO HISPANO THE SPANISH CLUB was founded in 1922. Its aim since then has been to bring an intimate knowledge of Spanish culture to interested Barnard stu- dents, in a more sociable way than can be arranged in the classroom. Last year the Coro Dramitico, a small group within the larger organization, learned songs and dances reflecting the spirit of Spain. It was organized under the able direction of Miss Sofia Novoa, a member of the department. The enter- tainment furnished by it at various meetings during this year has added much to their appeal to all members of the club. The scope of activities now includes within its range: dances, exhibitions, lectures, museum trips, and dramatic performances. This year the members had the honor of entertaining several of the Spanish-American consuls as well as Senor Juan Ramon Jimenez, the greatest living Spanish poet, and other distinguished Spanish visitors to America. Professional artists also appeared on the year ' s program, presenting dancing and singing recitals. Performances by members and students of the Spanish department were equally appre- ciated because they, too, enlarge the students ' store of information concerning the Spanish people. The success of the club, which has been a source of pleasant and valu- able diversion throughout the year for all of its members depends greatly on the friendly advice and generous aid of the faculty members of the department. Consequently, the gratitude to them of all who have enjoyed the club ' s numer- ous enterprises, is immeasurable. RUTH STIBBS ANNA DEL VALLE ANNETTE BERGOLD President Vice-President Secretary DOROTHEA JOHNSTON. JANET YOUNKER LUCIA OUINTERO Corr. Secretary Treasurer Publicity Manager 83 CLASSICAL CLUB THIS venerable organization, second oldest student club in Barnard, has the estimable purpose of furthering the interests of the student body in the life of ancient Greece and Rome. A great number of its members take no courses in the Classics Department but attend meetings in order to become aware of the latest discoveries in the field of ancient literature and art. The club is well known, too, for the large number of faculty members who regularly attend. At frequent teas and other social gatherings, students are afforded the pleasurable opportunity of conversing with these professors and instructors in an informal fashion. The results of these talks have often been an increased interest in classical study on the part of the student and a more complete understanding by the faculty members of the student ' s problems. The group was extremely fortunate to have as its first lecturer, Professor La Rue Van Hook, who had just returned from a trip to Greece, Italy, and the Roman ruins in Africa. At the second meeting Professor William Bell Dinsmoor gave the club New Light on Athenian Temples in the form of an illustrated lecture in which he presented some yet unpublished information. Throughout his talk Professor Dinsmoor stressed the significance of the archaeologist ' s dis- coveries as equal in importance to ancient documents. Later in the semester Professor and Mrs. Clarence H. Young addressed the club, giving, with the aid of slides, a very vivid description of the floral beauty that abounds in the Ionian Islands. BARBARA DENNEEN ELAINE HILDEBRAND President Vice-President ISABEL GAEBELEIN EVELYN HARRISON EMMA-LOUISE SMITH Dormitory Representative Secretary- Treasurer IL CIRCOLO ITALIANO THE MEMBERS of this club have accomplished their purpose during this year with enjoyment and customary success. Interest in Italian arts, culture and language was easily stimulated and enhanced by a varied social program. Formal lectures were not deemed the only appropriate means for the members of the group to increase their knowledge, but rather the progressive educational movement seems to have influenced the directors of the program. Whenever if was at all possible an attempt was made to draw all members into activities of a distinctly Italian flavor. Each Tuesday a luncheon meeting was held at which all conversed in Italian. Moreover, at social gatherings held every other Friday at the Casa Italiana, the same rule was observed throughout the program of games and songs. Two dramatic productions were outstanding among the events of the year. One given at the Christmas celebration held in the College Parlor, December 13, was the presentation of the crib of the Christ child, II Precebio. The other consisted of a typical Italian drama given in April in Brinckerhoff theatre. Both were enjoyed by audience and actors, and the latter heartily praised this method of increasing their enthusiasm for the study of the Italian language and literature. Evidence of its success was made apparent by the interest shown at several theatre parties held at the Cine Roma. Other social activities, equally enjoyable, included a week-end at Barnard Camp, and a tea in honor of Professor Peter M. Riccio, the adviser of the club, who returned this year from his sabbatical leave. TERESA CRACHI President MARY L. CRESCENZO Secretary MARY T. RAGNO Vice-President JOSEPHINE C. CASTAGNA Treasurer DENYSE BARBET Publicity Manager 84 LA SOCIETE FRANCAISE A SOCIETE FRANCAISE was founded in 1900 and has since continued to - 1 — 1 be one of the most popular clubs on the campus. This year its roll bore the names of 136 girls. The explanation, no doubt, lies in the worthwhile aims of the organization: to award annually a Fellowship to a senior student for a summer ' s study in France, and to enlarge the club members ' knowledge of French culture. A plan to achieve both of these goals by a single project was cleverly conceived and carried out under the able direction of the President, Marianne Pilenco. On December 17, a pageant, consisting of ten tableaux portraying the highlights in the romance of Tristan and Iseut, was presented in Brinckerhoff Theatre. The text of the pageant, taken from Joseph Bedier ' s version of the old legend was read by Miss Pilenco, who, being a student from France, was able to convey with subtlety the most delicate meanings of the story. Music and dancing from the period further enhanced the beauty of the production. Refreshments and dancing for the audience followed the performance. Distinguished guests were often present this year at the bi-monthly teas. Among these were two noted professors, Monsieur Paul Hazard from the College de France, and Professor Baldensperger of Harvard, who founded the Institute of Comparative Literature at the Sorbonne. MARIANNE PILENCO DOROTHY SMITH President Vice-President JEAN HUGHES LOUISE VAN BAALEN MARJORIE WEISS Publicity Manager Secretary Treasurer DEUTSCHER KREIS F)ERHAPS this club more than any other on the Barnard campus successfully turns away from academic to social life while exerting at the same time, intel- lectual influence upon its members. Its sole purpose is the creation of a German social atmosphere, the essen- tials of which are not only unforced enjoyment of German songs and the pleasure of eating food supplied in the plentiful German fashion. The fall semester ' s activities were begun ambitiously by a joint hike with the Columbia Deutscher Verein through the Palisades Interstate Park to Yonkers. At one of the subsequent semi-monthly meetings the members con- ducted an imaginary broadcast to Europe. Agnes Cassidy ' s singing, a reading by Eleanor Eckhoff, a talk by Professor Braun, and a dialogue reviewing the hike were highlights of the program. Later in the season the club fortunately had as a guest speaker, Professor Koischwitz of Hunter College, whose subject was Surrealism as a Modern Trend in Art. Of course, the annual Christmas party for the college in the Brooks Hall drawing room, was the outstanding, festive affair, anticipated by all. Tradition was broken slightly by the presen- tation of a new Nativity play, but the customary Angels provided a beautiful supplement. The tableau before the play was another feature of the program which brought forth enthusiastic comments from the assembled holiday guests. The main spring activity of the club, in addition to its regular meetings, was a dramatic program in McMillin Theatre. FLORA EHRSAM President ELIZABETH BRIPBACHER Vice-President VERA ARNDT Secretary CHARLOTTE WIGAND Treasurer COZETTE UTECH Publicity Chairman MARGARET SHACKLETON .. Social Chairman 86 MUSIC K USIC CLUB opened this year ' s activities with a program of old German -L v -L chamber music in which all the members took part either by playing some particular instrument in a group rendition of the music or by giving a talk about the music of the period. As is customary with all Music Club programs, the college was invited, and the program proved to be enjoyable for both participants and audience. The next event sponsored by the club was a talk on the relation of music to the dance given by Curt Sachs of the graduate school of New York Univer- sity. Mr. Sachs has written a World History of the Dance which has ap- peared in an English translation, while his other books on ancient musical instruments and the music of the Orient are in German. The folk and advanced modern dance groups were specially invited to hear his talk, which was followed by an informal discussion. That dance could not exist without music but that many musical classics exist in their own right and should not be further interpreted by a dance were ideas that were stressed during the after- noon ' s proceedings. Mrs. Harriet Seymour, chairman of the Hospital Music Committee of the State Charities Aid, presented an unusual but useful side of music at another meeting of the club when she spoke on musical therapy. A final highlight in the programs of the club this year was Professor Moore ' s di scussion and illustration of his new opera, The Devil n ' Daniel Webster. RUTH HALLE President SOPHIE MADLER Secretary MARGARET SHACKLETON Vice-President ELIZABETH WHITNEY Treasurer FRANCES FREEDMAN Publicity Manager 87 CLUB 7 WARRANTED aura of prestige has always clung to this organization. This ■ • year, particularly, the club has deserved the praise awarded it because of its generous contributions to the enjoyment and success of the anniversary celebrations. Outstanding among these was the concert broadcast on February 24 at the Metropolitan Opera House immediately before the Alumnae Associa- tion ' s Benefit Performance. This was the second time during the year that the club aided in spreading the fame of Barnard. At the annual Christmas Assembly it joined with the Columbia Glee Club in a nationwide broadcast of Christmas Carols. Charitable Christmas activities such as carol singing at St. Luke ' s Hospital, were also a part of its schedule. The highlights of the year were two joint concerts with men ' s glee clubs. In November the first was given with Columbia ' s organization at the Biltmore and included two selections composed by members of the Columbia Music Department, Douglas Moore and Daniel Gregory Mason, resp ectively. The quartet composed of two Barnard and two Columbia students was enthusias- tically applauded and solo selections by Virginia Mull and several Columbia men were likewise enjoyed. Dancing followed the program. At the Spring concert the same procedure was followed but this time the Barnard singers were hostesses to the Princeton Glee Club. The season ' s program was concluded with the annual banquet in May. A this gay affair the club members expressed their deep appreciation of the able direction of Mr. Willard Rhodes and his assistant, Miss Gena Tenney. ESTHER ANDERSON President MARY ELIZABETH WRIGHT Business Manager JULIA GRAY Secretary HELEN OWEN Publicity CATHERINE DONNA Librarian 88 lOLUMBIA UNIVERSITY CHOIR, in which Barnard is well represented, has about fifty members who are chosen each year from try-outs by those who are interested in its work and who are connected with the university in any capacity. Under the able and inspiring leadership of Mr. Lowell P. Beveridge assisted by Miss Ruth Abbott, the choir carries on its regular duties of partici- pating in the daily noon services in St. Paul ' s Chapel as well as in the services held there each Sunday morning. The music sung is mainly from the choral music of the fifteenth, sixteenth, and seventeenth centuries. Before Thanksgiving, Christmas, and Easter, the choir, singing additional anthems and other appropriate music, takes a large part in the special annual services at these times. The Candlelight Service of music at Christmas is the most impressive and beautiful of these occasions. The fine quality of singing exhibited by the choir leads to its participation in a number of extra activities during the year. These began last fall when they furnished the music for the special university convocation commemorating the four hundredth anniversary of the English Bible. A group from the choir was also present at the Barnard residence halls ' Christmas tea helping to lead the carol singing. A few days later, another lovely tradition was observed when the choir spent the evening carolling the various officers and residence halls of the university. In January, at the annual commemoration service for the dead of Columbia, they sang an entire mass. February saw its participation in Barnard ' s alumnae day activities. Dur- ing March, one of the Sunday afternoon ministry of music services of the River- side Church was furnished by it, and it also joined with several well known choirs of the city in giving a service at the Temple Emmanuel on Fifth Avenue. On March 10, a special group from the choir represented Barnard at a music festival of the leading women ' s colleges of the East at Sarah Lawrence College, giving a first performance of a cantata by Miss Abbott. The West Point choir sang with that of Columbia at the regular service in St. Paul ' s Chapel on April 16, while the year ' s activities were completed with the Baccalaureate service in June. Despite the remunerative aspect of choir ' s activities, it also takes time out on several occasions during the year and enjoys a purely social gathering. Typical of these events are the party given by Chaplain Knox in the fall and the dinner enjoyed in the spring. An additional unusual opportunity open to choir members is that of taking an informal course in the history of choral music, given by Mr. Beveridge. In this study group, choral music is studied, discussed, and sung. Selected read- ing suggestions and a classified listing of all choral music are available and form a basis for as much investigation of the field as these students care to do now or at some future time. Although not exclusivel y a Barnard organization, choir plays an important part in the college activities of its members. 89 PRE-LAW CLUB ' J ' HIS is one of the few Barnard organizations not primarily devoted to some phase of aca- demic student life. It is essentially interested in the future, exploring the legal field to dis- cover what possibilities it holds for the profes- sionally trained woman. While promoting this interest it has served to establish beneficial co- operation among those Barnard students who propose to study law after their graduation. Various means have been utilized to acquire for members the ability to predict the situation they will eventually face. Several luncheons are usually held throughout the year at which prominent attorneys, judges, and law school professors are invited to speak. Thus the stu- dent is presented with detailed information from the three most reliable authorities in the legal field. Two women representatives from the judicial group addressed the club this year: Justice Jeannette Bull and Magistrate Anna Cross, and their contributions were thought to be particularly valuable because of the prac- tical outlook they provoked. The club also endeavors to provide its mem- bers with an opportunity to see legal mecha- nisms in operation. Trips to various courts and institutions are arranged by it every year. Dur- ing this year the Children ' s Court and the Night Court were visited. To keep the student ' s point of view broad and comprehensive several individuals have explained the contributions that diverse fields of study make to the legal profession. This year one of the topics dis- cussed by such a speaker was The Applica- tion of Psychology to the Legal Field. JEAN HOLLANDER President MIRIAM MARGOLIES Vice-President JUNE CROLLY Treasurer PRE-MEDICAL SOCIETY ' J ' HE program of the Barnard Pre-Medical Society for the year 1938-1939 was planned with a view toward combining the ideal with the real, the theoretical with the practical, and at the same time its members were encouraged to be active participants rather than mere pas- sive listeners. The theoretical aspect of the program was rounded out by monthly meetings to which a distinguished guest-speaker was in- vited and by a lively discussion on the progress of medicine, including considerations of pre- scientific medical practice, of accepted meth- ods of fifty years ago and relative modern prog- ress, of the history of the use of anaesthetics, of medical methods in France as contrasted with those in this country, and finally of mod- ern surgical preparation and procedure. In addition, a scrap-book consisting of clippings of current interest contributed by members, to- gether with all copies of the American Medical School Bulletin, was kept on file for the con- venience of those interested. On the practical side, the club not only studied slides of de- ceased tissues, but had the opportunity of wit- nessing an operation and securing authoritative information concerning details of procedure. A social meeting terminating each semester ' s work served to strengthen acquaintances and make for better cooperation among the mem- bers. The Juniors and Seniors who constitute the membership of the club were impressed with the value of the program, both from the informative viewpoint and because they are near enough to actual medical work to feel the need for orientation. HELEN WEINBERG President BETTY SARGENT Vice-President HELEN FABRICANT Secretary VIRGINIA ROSS Treasurer BETTY ISAACS Publicity Chairman 90 BARNARD STUDENT UNION j EEP Democracy Working by Keeping it Moving Forward, the slogan adopted by the 1938 national convention of over one thou- sand chapters of the American Student Union meeting in New York, expresses the goal of this progressive organization on the American cam- pus, and explains the work of the individual chapters, of which the Barnard group of seventy members, is one. During the past year, the Barnard chapter has stressed the importance of democracy through a program of varied activities. The group has aided in the Spanish crisis, raising $300 last March for the university ambulance, and money and supplies this fall for a relief ship. As part of its educational program, the group heard Dr. Deutsch of Czechoslovakia review the international situation after Munich, Dr. Jane P. Clark of the government department discuss the election campaign, and the Honorable Stan- ley M. Isaacs, Borough President of Manhattan, describe housing developments in greater New York. The Barnard chapter has studied hous- ing intensively, sponsoring a field trip to the Williamsburg housing project, and an exhibi- tion of housing photographs. Innovations of the past year have been the A. S. U. bulletin board of current events in Barnard Hall, and the A. S. U. musicales, held weekly at John Jay in cooperation with the Columbia chapter, and featuring classical and swing music. During the coming year, the chapter plans to continue its cooperation with other university organizations, such as the religious clubs, social science groups, and the undergraduate commit- tee to aid refugees.

There are eight supervising commit- tee members and sixty volunteers now taking advantage of the positions offered. Those interested in clinical work of a clerical, semi-clerical or practical nature are placed at Bellevue, St. Luke ' s, Roosevelt, or Lenox Hill Hospitals. The Housing Projects and the New York Legislative Service draw those whose in- terests lie in government fields. In the latter volunteers investigate bills concerned with so- cial welfare and in the former engage in re- search with their aim: the promotion of better housing. Settlement work is the phase of the commit- tee ' s program which appeals to most of the workers. They assist or take charge of the entertainment and teaching of children, attempt- ing to bring out their latent talents as well as to keep them usefully occupied. Settlements helped in this way by Barnard Students are Greenwich House, Hartley House, Henry Street, and Union Neighborhood Center. The latter, under the auspices of various parts of Columbia University, particularly of Union Theological Seminary, is run for children within the neigh- borhood of the University. Since it has been functioning, juvenile delinquency has decreas- ed 25 in this region. Working with the committee brings to the average volunteer ability to lead, cooperate with, and better understand people in situa- tions extremely different from their own. More- over it develops an intelligent and real appre- ciation of present-day conditions which other- wise would be difficult to obtain. ELIZABETH WISE Chairman 91 FINE ARTS CLUB JN the spring of 1938 a group of students in- tensely interested in extending the study of Fine Arts beyond the limits of class work founded the Fine Arts Club. An enterprising program was launched early this fall as a result of last spring ' s earnest discussions of the many possible activities which might engage the members of the new organization. Realizing the greatness of the resources of the University the Club decided to become more fully ac- quainted with these before looking elsewhere. Professor Donald Fletcher of the School of Architecture delivered the first formal lecture of the fall season. Following his talk the Club was honored to entertain for tea many distin- guished members of the Fine Arts Departments of both Barnard and Columbia and other faculty members as well. A number of informal dis- cussions, held at subsequent meetings were probably the result of the enthusiasm for the Club ' s project, instituted at this successful first meeting. The Spring semester ' s program began with another inspiring lecture. The speaker this time was a graduate student and a Columbia Alumnus, Mr. Frederick Hartt, who addressed the club upon The Iconographic and Stylistic Problems of Carpaccio ' s ' Meditations on the Passion ' . At later meetings observations made by individual members in the Fifty-seventh Street Galleries were discussed by the whole group. The members hope to hold exhibitions at college and present to the student body a num- ber of well-known authorities in the various fields of artistic endeavor. MARY HEUSER President MARJORIE HEALY Vice-President-Treasurer FAY HENLE Secretary HELEN OWEN Publicity JEAN JOHNSTON Chairman of Program Committee BOTANICAL CLUB ' pHIS club, the oldest organization at Barnard, was founded on the eleventh of May, 1896, in the original home of the college at 343 Madi- son Avenue. Interest and enthusiasm on the part of the staff and undergraduate members of the Department led to the formation of the club; Dr. Emily L. Gregory, first Professor of Botany at Barnard, being elected president. Since that vital early beginning, the club has been open to students of botany who have worked more than one year in the Department. It serves not only their interests but those of alumnae and faculty who are also intrigued by the problems botanical science presents. In this respect, uniting the three types of individ- uals concerned with academic endeavors, the club is perhaps most remarkably unique. No other club on the campus is so closely linked with students of the past, or has faculty members so intimately concerned with its procedures. Activities during the year, attended by this heterogeneous but well integrated group, usually consist of lectures, an experience meeting, a tea, and occasional trips to the Botanical Gar- dens and research institutions. Since its formation, the club has made nu- merous gifts to the college, included among which was much of the apparatus for the phys- iological laboratory. Through the generosity of its members, a Richards Memorial Fund was established in 1928 to further botanical research. Two fellowships have been awarded thus far. MRS. REGINALD H. COLLEY President MISS FLORENCE MIDDLETON Vice-President MISS HESTER M. RUSK Second Vice-President MISS VIVIAN TROMBETTA Secretary MISS JACQUELINE HICKS Treasurer UNIVERSITY CHRISTIAN ASSOCIATION ' HE UNIVERSITY CHRISTIAN ASSOCIATION, whose activities are centered at Earl Hall and St. Paul ' s Chapel, is composed of students from the colleges and undergraduate schools of the University. Many from Barnard have been active participants during the past year in the work sponsored by the organization. The Association ' s program is carried on by numerous interest groups which facilitate the study and discussion of problems vital to all college stu- dents. One of the most important of these is the Worship Committee which plans the Monday services at St. Paul ' s Chapel. They are conducted by individual students along lines of their own choosing such as meditation, scripture reading and hymn singing. In this way, experience is obtained and a truer understanding among the members of the whole group is promoted. These services are still in an experimental stage but the initial step has been taken. The Peace Committee maintains contact with various peace organizations throughout the city and examines such questions as neutrality and collective security. The Social Service group takes a part in the Far Eastern Student Emergency Fund. The meetings of the Association are in the form of Open House held every Thursday afternoon at Earl Hall. After tea and an informal gathering, interesting speakers are presented or one of the interest groups presides. During the Lenten Season Reverend Amerman held a special series of studies permitting of the interchange of different ideas and convictions on religious and philosophical topics. WYCLIFFE CLUB • PHE WYCLIFFE CLUB ' S program for this year has be en in true accordance with its principal aim — to bring the Protestant students of Barnard together for social and religious purposes. The theme for this year has been The Christian in the World of Today — his religion, health, his pleasures. After a friendly get-together for the Freshman members, Bradford Young spoke on the religion of the Christian of today; in November followed a social with fun and games for all, and a little later, Dr. Alsop gave one of her informal chats on the Christian attitude towards health. In addition to regular meetings, one day a week is set aside for chapel attendance followed by luncheon and a friendly discussion led by the club adviser, Mrs. Ladd. Plans are now under way for next term ' s activities. It has been suggested, due to the success of a joint meeting between the Episcopal and Wycliffe Clubs, that such get-togethers be made a regular occurrence. Certain speakers rep- resenting the great religions of today are to speak on their respective faiths as part of a program to trace the historical growth of religion. Father Ford, adviser to the Newman Club, is to speak on Catholicism, followed by Russell Olsen of the Lutheran Church and other representatives of principal religious sects. Social activities, too, will comprise a great part of the program for the coming term, supplying wholesome, enjoyable entertainment combined with spiritual guidance for all who form a part of the Wycliffe Club. Wycliffe officers for the year 1938-39: LOUISE PREUSCH President ELIZABETH STENGEL Vice-President DOROTHEA JOHNSTON Secretary MARIANNA NORRIS Treasurer EMMA-LOUISE SMITH Program Chairman JOSEPHINE TROSTLER, Representative to C. S. C. C. 04 LUTHERAN CLUB The Barnard Lutheran Club was founded seven years ago, its purpose being to pro- mote fellowship and closer relationships among the Lutheran students of the college and to afford them an opportunity for discus- sion of religious problems. This year the general topic to be talked over at meetings was: What the Lutheran Church Does for Its People. In this connec- tion, Mr. Russel Olson, a student at Union Theological Seminary, spoke before the Club on the set-up and background of the Luth- eran Church, and upon another occasion the Reverend Kroncke gave a very interesting report on the work done among underpriv- ileged people in lower New York. In March, Dr. Hartung, a faculty member of Hunter College, discussed The Church and Its Work Among College Students. Vera Arndt was the representative sent by the Barnard Lutheran Club to the annual American Conference held at Gettysburg College and attended by many Lutheran students from colleges in the northeastern re- gion. The subject chosen for discussion at this meeting was: Christian Community Living. Other important activities of the Lutheran Club during this year included participation in joint meetings with other Protestant socie- ties of the College. Among the interesting speakers heard at these meetings were Dr. Long, Executive Director of the National Lutheran Council, whose address concerned The Church In International Life, and Dr. Bradford Young who spoke to the students on Personal Religion. FRANCES ADAMS President MILLICENT BRIDEGROOM Vice-President MARGUERITE KUTSCHERA Secretary ETHEL MAINZER Treasurer WILMA WALACH Publicity EPISCOPAL CLUB TN addition to its regular program, the Epis- copal Club has sponsored a special project this year of definite social value: the part-time adoption of orphans. Members were assigned to orphans from a nearby home, with the under- standing that they take an active interest in the child ' s welfare by aiding in her material well- being and in her educational and recreational activities whenever possible. The club also sent for and had filled about a hundred Christ- mas stockings to be distributed among the Episcopal Missions. The year ' s schedule featured chapel and lunch in Hewitt every Thursday, to which all Episcopal students are invited regardless of the fact that they are members of the club or not. Faculty members, exchange students, and visit- ing chapel speakers were guests at these week- ly lunches, which have now become a per- manent institution of the club. Monthly meetings, joint meetings with the Lutheran and Wycliffe clubs at which religious topics of common interest to the three organiza- tions were discussed, a tea for freshmen, and an occasional party complete the list of activi- ties the Episcopal Club included on its social agenda. Members attended the Chaplain and Mrs. Knox ' s annual Christmas tea which is always so enjoyed by everyone present. Mrs. Knox very graciously gave another of her much anticipated teas in the spring. The club has also cooperated with and supported the Colum- bia Student Christian Council and helped to make their several dinners and university-wide dances acknowledged successes.

MARIAN LIPPINCOTT , MARY MOLLESON Pubhcit Chairmen 95 CLUB THE NATIONAL NEWMAN CLUB FEDERATION is an organization for the Catholic students in non-sectarian colleges and schools. The Barnard club is a branch of it, sharing whole-heartedly its purpose to unite Catholic students in religious, social, and intellectual interests. It is ably guided towards the achievement of this goal by Father Ford, the counselor to Catholic students, and Mrs. Read, adviser to the club. Activities this year were opened by a tea for the incoming Catholic students, followed by monthly lectures and teas. At these, subjects of timely religious interest, such as Catholic philosophy and racial problems were pre- sented by prominent speakers who also led subsequent discussions. Coffee hours were held as usual by the University Newman Club on the third Sunday of each month in Corpus Christi Auditorium, affording an opportunity for Catholic students from all parts of the University to meet one another. Within the New York Province are twenty-seven Newman Clubs, including the Barnard group. These met on the first Sunday of every month at the Province headquarters to discuss vital problems facing Catholic youths of today. One of the most noteworthy endeavors of this group is their support of the Catholic Social Service Center in Harlem. The social life of the organization reached its climax for the year in February when all the clubs united for Province week-end. This included a formal dance, discussion hours, and tea dancing at the Waldorf Astoria Hotel. A communion breakfast after Mass in St. Patrick ' s Cathedral at which Dean Gildersleeve spoke, concluded the week-end ' s events. PATRICIA SPOLLEN President ANNE CONNOLLY Secretary MARGARET BOYLE Vice-President KATHRYN SHEERAN Treasurer IRENE LYONS Publicity Manager 96 MENORAH SOCIETY THE MENORAH SOCIETY is now becoming the articulate organ of a united Jewish minority on religious, constructionist, or purely cultural problems. It has in the past been largely a social organization devoting itself only occa- sionally to talks or lectures given by well known Rabbis. In view of the situation of world Jewry, a thorough understanding of the place of the modern Jew in society was recently deemed wholly desirable and imperative for the functioning of the club. An attempt to achieve this was made by bi-monthly discussion groups. The topics included Jewish student activity on other campuses, and material which appeared in the Menorah Journal and New Palestine. A second departure from tradition was the emphasizing of the cultural rather than the religious aspects of Judaism. This was developed in an address by Mr. Henry Hurwits, editor of the Menorah Journal and in a lecture by Mr. Maurice Samuel, who spoke on The Role of the Jew in the Perpetuation of American Democracy. Activities for this year also included the opening tea for freshmen and transfers, a tea dance and succoth celebration at the Theological Seminary in cooperation with the Columbia Jewish Students ' Society and the annual formal dance held with the J. S. S. and the Graduate Society. A benefit theater party, the proceeds of which were contributed to the fund for laboratory equip- ment in the Hebrew University of Palestine, was the highlight of the spring semester.

Finan ATHLETICS ATHLETIC ASSOCIATION INITIATION of the Freshmen into the sporting aspects of Barnard life was -L the first problem solved this year with the customary enthusiasm of this body. Every available Freshman was conveyed to Barnard camp and there was begun the beguiling process of strengthening these newcomers for their college careers. Shortly afterwards the Association continued the same work on its old charges and the faculty. Strenuous activity for students was first enhanced by contests during Sports Week. Later the same individuals were lured onto the playing field by the thought of defeating a professor, even though the weapons were volleyballs, not words. Even greater enthusiasm was shown when Bamardites were given a chance to batter the Army Mule, the Columbia Lion, the Navy Goat, or the Princeton Tiger, this time with their bows and arrows at the annual archery tournament. Other novelties were the fruit carts, weekly recreation hours for students, and evening folk dance parties. Ingenuity of theme characterized many activities. At Harvest Hop, the gymnasium was decorated with numerous college banners, and the Posture Contest represented a horse show. The Swimming Carnival introduced Ferdi- nand The Bullos. Other events crowding the spring calendar included: the Barbecue follow- ing Spring Dance, a Camp Reunion of all those who had taken part in June Week, Sub-Freshman play day and Inter-Collegiate play day. The season reached its climax with the Installation Banquet, at which Miss Mabel Foote Weeks was guest of honor and the Fiftieth Anniversary was appropriately celebrated. NINETTA di BENEDETTO President MEREDITH WRIGHT Secretary MARY WALRATH Vice-President MERRY ANDREWS ' . Treasurer 105 BARNARD CAMP ■ P HE tantalizing odor of sizzling steak streamed into the living room where - 1 - the tables were set for eighteen. Six pairs of legs untangled themselves from the soft couch in front of the wide fireplace and raced for the center of food activity. Dinner music being desired, someone obligingly turned on WOR ' s best. The soup had already been served and the cooks entered bearing the second course. There was plenty of cold milk and hot coffee to accompany a good dessert. Finally the K. P. ' s removed the dishes while the rest of the party lazied over to the hearth. The evening was soon under way with ghost stories and marshmallows going round and round. But while some were telling of their great aunt ' s ghost, others were busy sandpapering the runners of a sled which had been stored during the fall season, when tenikoit, volley- ball and horseback riding were the thing. One girl waxed skis in preparation for a try at the more difficult slopes in back of the camp, which are kept open by the Dirt Trails Association. The less experienced snowmen would be off to the cow pastures of the Apple Bee Farm hoping for a pile of hay when they made an unexpected descent. Ice skates with bright woolly socks peeping over their tops were lain on the table, reminders of the vigorous day ahead. Presently someone yawned; this inevitably proved to be contagious, and there followed a general migration towards the bunks. Soon all was quiet save for the crackle of the dying fire. This is a just description of the pleasant atmosphere of Barnard Camp on a winter holiday. But there are spring and fall weekends when the vacation in this spot is just as congenial. At these times culinary odors arise not from the kitchen but from an outdoor fireplace or barbecue pit in the ground. Lamb or chicken roasted in this way draws capacity crowds. And afterwards there are cider and doughnuts and a treasure hunt. Then when all have gathered indoors, there is more amusement in the form of a good old-fashioned sing. For all these excellent times the students are indebted to the Alumnae, who, miraculous at raising money, presented the camp to Barnard in 1933. Since then it has been used steadily by classes, clubs, individuals, and alumnae. To insure that things will run smoothly, each group is accompanied by a student leader, who has learned in two June weeks to operate the stove successfully. Barnard students consider themselves lucky in possessing this hideout from their books — for any one who has ever gone there has never bothered studying.

Although team sports are gradually being surpassed in popularity by dual and individual sports, many of the more vigorous maidens still find the excitement of the basketball court very alluring. Perhaps the incentive for such arduous exercise is not a slender form or an A gym grade. Observing the lithe figures of the prominent players one is inclined to think so, but surmises that their enthusiasm is rather a result of the thrills that come from spirited team competition. The physical education department has especially arranged the training for this sport to permit this intriguing feature to be always present and as a consequence the students, with almost complete unawareness, perform some of the most strenuous work of their gym careers. In regular classes, practice teams are organized and games conducted with a minimum of criticism, students acting as officials in order to learn to conduct as well as to play the game. On one of the play-days, during the latter part of the first semester, the ever-present rivalry between Brooks and Hewitt Halls was expressed in a game between teams from each. Hewitt ' s women were victorious after the vigorous contest which spoke well for the enjoyable training methods that had been used. Day students also vied with each other for supremacy in this sport and during the second indoor gym season, inter-class basketball provided equally lively competition. 108 TENNIS P OR Barnard tennis fans, the limited space of a city campus is as small an obstacle as the pressure of class hours when tennis season comes around. Weather alone is capable of curbing Barnard court enthusiasm, yet even as winter encroaches on fall and cautious Barnardites begin to button up their reversibles, the most ardent devotees stick to their guns and continue to serve and return with unchilled vigor. The beginners are as intent on their grip or on their newly-learned and rather shaky serve as the advanced per- formers are on improving the coordination of their games. Indeed, in the beginners ' classes, where the necessary mass production makes the dozen-to- a-court method most practical, to the remote chance of hitting a ball is added the exciting possibility of being in turn gently tapped in the cerebral regions by a neighbor ' s racket. Thus gaining the coveted rank of advanced player has both the attraction of mastery and exclusiveness. The social side of tennis, always important, has gained impetus this year with the introduction of mixed matches, and it has been a cheering sight to see the invasion of the Barnard courts by the male contingent in the late afternoon hours. Masculine competi- tion is almost a superfluity, however, in a sport so popular that registration for it is a fighting proposition. Rumor has it that famished Barnard students have even foregone the joys of lunch hour to watch the annual fall and spring tennis matches! 109 DANCING JT is amazing to realize that the numerous dance enthusiasts at Barnard were all introduced to that particular form of recreation by means of the gruelling course, misleadingly entitled, Rhythmic Fundamentals. After endur- ing many a day when taking elevators even to the second floor was a neces- sity, and slipping quietly and easily into one of Milbank ' s creaking wicker chairs, classes having already begun, was a feat impossible to perform, one might think that dancing would be soon forgotten when the freshman year was over. However, the promised rewards of modern dance, graceful walk, and an erect carriage plus the thrill of participating in the creation of an artistic production continues to lure Barnardites to Exercise room B. Those who take their upperclass privileges more whole-heartedly are more likely to be found indulging in the syncopated rhythm of Tap dancing or the sociability of the Folk Dance Class. The student in any of these advanced classes is not expected to spend all of her interest for dance on physical exercise, however. Miss Streng par- ticularly makes a concerted effort to keep all of her pupils currently informed with regard to dance recitals, exhibits and lectures. Through her efforts this year the advanced modern dance class had the opportunity to hear a series of lectures by the eminent composer and critic, Louis Horst. This same class presented several dances during the spring term in Macmillin Theatre on the occasion of a combined recital with the glee club and orchestra. 110 GOLF There may be no caddies to make a play for in Barnard ' s golf classes, but there is ample opportunity to learn all the pointers needed to attract the attention of others when one is stuck in a sand pit or trying to make the green in less than par. These funda- mental lessons: correct grip of the club, and the perfect arc-swing can be acquired without the embarrassment of laughter at local country clubs. One likes to progress beyond the swing and miss stage and to warm up our technique after a winter ' s relaxation. This is precisely the purpose of Miss Streng and the cage on Riverside. One can do swinging exercises and top the ball many times, unnoticed. Practice here perfects the clean, straight hit with which one can challenge friends at home. SWIMMING With hair-up fashions going the way of the horse and buggy, swimming still retains its popularity at Barnard. Whether the nymph is striving toward a technically perfect one-and-a-half dive or whether her highest aspiration is a modest desire to get along in deep water, she finds the Barnard swimming program flexible enough to suit her every need. At one hour the diving class pos- sesses the pool, next, perhaps, the Red Cross Life Savers take over, and as the bell rings, out may come a flock of modern Hiawathas armed with the new fifteen-foot canoe. The annual water-meet was based on the story of Ferdinand the ' Frog ' and aimed at self-mastery and fun in the water, the Barnard attitude toward pool activities in general. ARCHERY Contrary to popular opinion, archery is not merely for people with low health and activity grades. The satisfaction that comes from having scored a bull ' s eye after a concerted effort to hold a steady bow, aim directly and pull the arrow backward with a motion powerful and unhesitating, annually fills the archery classes. Barnard ' s archers turned out during the last fall ' s Sports Week to slay the Columbia lion, Army mule, and Navy goat. Six teams were formed representing various men ' s colleges; Yale ' s representa- tives being victorious. An annual novelty tournament of this sort is held every fall for archers in all classes. In the spring a more formal tournament affords an opportunity for the advanced archers to compete. Ill TENIKOIT The beginner thinks tenikoit is easy; the intermediate student finds there is more in it than at first greets the eye; and the advanced player discovers many ways in which to improve her game. Joyful is not the word to describe the player when that hard rubber ring continually bounces on the ground in the corner of the court opposite her. Even if she has mastered the intricacies of a twisted shot, she feels incapacitated when a. quick return lands not upon her out- thrust hand, but upon her head. Despair resulting from such unfortunate occurrences is most often apparent in the tournaments enthusiastically entered by both faculty members and students. The emotion is experienced mostly on the undergraduate side, for the faculty includes many an athletic minded individual capable of trouncing the average student. BADMINTON Badminton has risen to the top ranks of major sports at Barnard. With the advent of indoor activities in the late fall, the gym depart- ment offers several classes in badminton for beginning, intermediate, and advanced players, which are continued until the outdoor season in the spring. There are several exhibitions during the year, which feature outstanding national players. The department sponsors these events for the benefit of the college, for, although the thrill of a smash must be experienced personally, there is a vicarious thrill in watching the experts place their shots. It arouses an interest in those who have never played, and indicates the possibilities of a perfect game to those who have been playing it. VOLLEY BALL Volley ball is one of the best sports for all-round team spirit and cooperation and is very popular on the sports list as a group activity. Special emphasis has been laid on serving the ball so that its direction and speed may be controlled, on kill shots, on net shots and on group cooperation in passing the ball from one team member to another. Judged by participation, volley ball tournaments, both between faculty and students and between students of different classes, are most successful. They are especially desirable because a large number of people can join in the fun. In the fall contest between the faculty and students rivalry ran high with all contestants playing well and alternate booing and cheering from the sidelines. 112 FEATURES PROLOGUE (With echoes fron and It is an archaeologist That diggeth on a hill; And by my beard, but it is weird To see her stop and swill Full often from a little brook That there beside her flows — Once cleped the mighty Hudson, As our excavator knows. For she is learned, and very learned. She knows her A B C ' s In fifty different tongues, and holds (Summa cum laude) degrees From fifty universities That variously hight; But none of them hight Barnard If my eyes did read aright. For why? Alas! It is the year Six thousand sixty-six; And nought remains of Barnard but A heap of stones and sticks. But lest you be inclined to weep, I hasten to reveal The old tradition ' s carried on In colleges as viel As any feminist could wish. The motto of the nation, In fact is: Sirs, our girls must have The higher education. And since the Palisades were low And did not well comport With higher education, ' twas Agreed in open court To move all women ' s colleges Straight to the Pyrenees, Where mentes feminarum could Be trained wiih greater ease. For centuries the mouldering halls Of Barnard, Milbank, Fiske Withstood the battering elements; And once e ' en ran the risk The Ancient Mariner Skelton) Of being rudely leveled for An atom-recruiting station — You understand — where they repose Cubed roots for emigration. But Barnard ' s walls were spared this end, Not by tergiversation, But when the alumnae indignant arose And threatened retaliation. Yet the strongest alumnae could not stop Forces of wind and water; And in the year five-o-o-six You could not bring a blotter Two hundred miles within the spot Where Gotham erst was seated, For the plenitude of H.O Wherewith it would be greeted. The zephyrs roared, the torrents poured, The wild waves sang together: About, about, with reel and rout, Oh, this is mariners ' weather! And sure, of water everywhere There was full many a drop. Why, even the Jungle was submerged. Ne visible nas nary no top Of apple tree or euryanthus, Of peach, or plum, or whango; But only the wavelets trucking to A Leo Dryer tango. Day after day, day after day This aqueous turmoil lasted; And when at last the flood had past Our soggy walls were blasted With the fiercest rays of frate sol. The heat was predatory. It gobbled bricks like candy sticks: Sic transit Barnard ' s glory. The Hudson dwindled to a stream, Then pined into a trickle. Alasl Alas! that that must pass Which quondam was so mickle! 113 They say there was a casualty, Though I could never make Much sense thereof; yet many mourn For the loss of one clept Jake! Age followed age; the world had changed Almost past recognition. But ' mongst the eternal verities, One — feminine erudition — In spectacles and saddle shoes, A kerchief on its head, Gave ample signs that it was not — Oh, perish the thought! — quite dead. There midst the snowy Pyrenees One studied with such zest She scorned to hear the simple phrase: Puella pulchra est. And amo was the only verb She viewed with contumely. She plied her books, forgot her looks, And so — well, you may see This maiden (forty if a day) Digging on Barnard hill To find the rule of an ancient school. Eftsoons she has her will. There comes a clink. She ' s on the brink Of a discovery epoch-making . She throws down her spade, this determined maid, And, her heart with high hopes quaking, Extracts a casket! A tisket, a tasket! Three guesses! Now, what is in it? Doubloons? No! no! A map? Worse yet! A talisman? Not for a minute! The prevoyant maidens Of nineteen and forty, Knowing that change is the rule, Information had garnered on everything Barnard To go in their time capsule. And the casket was freighted With documents dated, Wherein it is stated They feared they were fated To be much under-rated By those to come after (Now, what could be dafter?) Unless they bound up In a stout metal cup The tales of their doings, Their frolics, their wooings Of Lady Scientia (Or scholar ' s dementia) In collegium residentia. Then let us be bolder, And peek over the shoulder Of that resolute maid Who late wielded the spade. ' Tis useless to mention With what avid attention She peruses the papers. Why, she leaps and she capers! She smiles and she chuckles! She cracks all her knuckles In a great glee Gargantuan — But let ' s leave the expansion To the pages that follow. You ' ll hoop and you ' ll holla Like the inmates of Bedlam When once you have read them — These risible pages Preserved through the ages By Barnard school In its time capsule. BARNARD IN larch 1889 ' The Trustees gave their official approval to a plan for founding a college where women could receive instruction from the faculty of Columbia College.

They know so many things that have nothing whatever to do with what they should know. Instead of boning up on the regulations for this fair college ' s fire-drills, they prefer to brood eternally on how incendiary precautions were carried out when they attended Wellesley last year. They have no realization that their English professor has been writing a book for the past ten years on the Manhattan dramatist, his life, habits and economics. But their intel- ligence of a professor ' s past is ponderous and peppery. For hours on end they relate snappy incidents about his or her grands amours : Paris, the war, a shot, a letter, then Barnard. The poor professors are not only reported to have been former Romeos and Juliets, but often they are portrayed as psychopathic cases. Most of them have shot a brother or sister in cold blood. When students ' conversation turns from fac- ulty affairs to still life, the usual topic is what courses you and I should take next year. Of course they aren ' t sure what courses they them- selves should handle, for they ' re still finding themselves — or, as it used to be phrased, they haven ' t settled down to good, hard work yet. If they ' re taking Government it is only con- sistent that you should major in English, for having delved into political theory they are naturally authorities on Chaucer and the Shakespearean sonnet. Barnard girls are kind, though, despite their peculiar type of ignorance. Many times they sit up until four o ' clock in the morning drilling freshman sisters for a quiz which they failed last year. Their unusual supply of poetry is generally displayed at these cram sessions. They may not know the Mercy speech but they can put all sorts of feeling into There was a man upon the stair, etc. Likewise it is a mental strain to get through even the first verse of Alma Mater, but Beulah, Beulah comes easily. However, these poor creatures are to be pitied for their peculiar reactions to the carefully planned college curriculum and routine. They are so desperately unaware that their intelli- gence is of the wrong sort until they go into a quiz. Tell me, have you ever crammed on Anglicanism from dusk ' til dawn, washed your face, tried to smile, walked out into the biting wind past the tennis courts and into Milbank, and seen on the third floor blackboard: Write for half an hour on Calvinism — question worth fifty points ? 117 STUDENT MAIL Student Mail is considered by many as the remnants of a fine old tradition. Once, they whisper reverently, Student Mail was a means of getting in contact with fellow students. But custom has perverted its uses into other chan- nels. Today, they say, it is a clearing house for lunchroom tickets, antique badminton rac- quets, practice room keys and roller skates. This is a highly erroneous belief. In the course of its history, Student Mail may have acquired other uses, but it is still primarily a medium for delivering urgent messages. Urgent can hardly describe any note sent through S. M. They are of the most imperative nature. Other- wise why not take the time and trouble to deliver them personally? There is a certain ritual connected with this postal institution. After standing in line all noon hour, you finally beat your way to Mrs. Johns ' office. Those less hardy have fallen be- fore you and their collapsed bodies strew the well-worn path. But you have succeeded in this test of patience and endurance and are qualified to drop your little red cellophane slip into the ancient pin dish and receive your mail from the hands of Mrs. Johns, herself. You glance it over and find that the messages have a peculiar character all their own. Each is a distinct surprise, each is an original. First there is the card from the Ella Weed Library: ' Mother Goose ' was taken out by you six weeks ago. Will you please return it at once! You fume; you see the end of your allowance. Who was that girl who promised to return the book to the truck so you could sleep that morning? Then there is the notice that satisfies your ego: IMPORTANT MEETING!! 12 noon— Meet on Jake — Can you come? — Don ' t fail to come — If you don ' t come — ! Periodically, Arthur the Rat crops up in a very simple message: You have failed to show up at your speech conference — why? The social side of life is not neglected by our Student Mail. At the beginning of each term comes the note from the complete stranger. She is the friend of the friend of the friend who knew you when and who met you where. She sim- ply must meet you! Can you have lunch with her Tuesday? This is Tuesday. You planned to eat an apple for lunch and buy those shoes you wanted before Christmas. Strange how your desire to make friends and influence peo- ple has diminished. Any other type of message is comparatively rare. So few have been received that there is no significant material available to discuss them. They are unimportant. Just notes from fellow students who want to get in contact with other fellow students. The careful observer will also note a strange phenomena about the line of girls each noon. Their eyes glaze over peculiarly as fatigue and hunger produce their telling effects. They see the printing on the posters merged together in crazy patterns. Their fevered imaginations conjure fantastic thoughts that today their mail will be unique — different! Not a bill, not a notice of meetings or books past due, but some- thing exciting: an invitation to a dance from h im, perhaps, or a long-awaited letter from an old friend. It is a perfect example of the credulity of human nature. Wond:rful mate- rial for a serious sociologist. TRANSFER We are a transfer. One of the eighty to one hundred and twenty-five girls who yearly switch from other colleges to Barnard. History informs us that Barnard has always had a large influx of transfers. In 1899, the class of 1900 was doubled by these entering upperclassmen. Today, Barnard boasts of more transfers than any other woman ' s college in the country. So as we look back over the hectic first few months, we shouldn ' t have felt as strange as we did. Flashes of incidents still remain fresh in mind. The Special Transfer Committee, which took us in hand immediately. The Adviser who met us in innumerable conferences and helped us select our courses. The bewildering number of subjects in the catalogue which had to be whittled down to one little program. The whirl of registration week. So different from the little college we came from. Medical Exam and the discovery of one ' s ninth rib. Registration . . . Bursar ... Dr. Alsop. 118 The search for Fiske and Brinckerhoff Halls. Wherever we went we landed in Milbank! The introduction to Arthur the Rat. Being sent back at the cafeteria because we took too much for our money. The thrill of writing home that we were in college located on BROADWAY, the same Broadway of Times Square and the Great White Way. Actually going downtown the third night and seeing the lights. The first week of school. Standing on library line and then learning that you had to draw a number. Tea, tea, and more tea. Meeting scads of new girls . . . faces, hundreds of faces, asking if we were new and where we came from. The pleasure of knowing people after the first lonely days. Dormitory life. Miss Abbott ' s hearty welcome. After dinner coffee. Special tickets to concerts, theatres on lucky occasions. The kids on the floor. First just another jumble of faces and then special people. Talking about life and love with them ' til all hours of the night. The hopeless trek downstairs for mail. Fire-drills at 1:30 A. M. Facing Mrs. Crooke after your first lateness. Listening for buzzers. Tilson ' s for cokes. Suddenly realizing it ' s a new term. You are an old girl. The Barnard mold is set as securely around you as around any Senior. The elevator boys and the telephone operators know you. The soda jerker splashes you a vanilla coke without your even ordering it. And you settle back confidently and explain the intricacies of the Columbia Library to the new transfer. You are definitely in. GHOSTS One vital indoor sport in the dormitory is that of collecting. There are those who collect news- papers. We know of one girl in particular who had the worthy ambition of being educated daily by the New York Times. But every day her ambition failed her before she had half finished her task. Since she surely expected to absorb the remaining knowledge at some fu- ture date she collected the papers in one corner of her room until there was a lovely, tall, Times- Tower abutting from the walls. But when a second Times-Tower rose beside the first, her friends objected to the decidedly rag-paper tone of the room. So rather than risk the fate of a social outcast our heroine managed to deprive herself of the papers and took to collecting oranges on her window-sill instead. Then there are those whose indoor sport is collecting mice. On a certain history-making occasion one mouse whom we will call Oscar eluded the pursuit of four, fair dorm students until 3:30 A. M. Oscar was a fiendish creature with Machiavellian twists of mind. His four pursuers tried every known method of mouse hunting from the traditional idea of slapping a flower pot over the culprit and pouring water through the hole on top to the ancient cheese- baited trap. But Oscar was a wily one. He mysteriously escaped. Yet Barnard girls can not be daunted and Oscar ' s hiding place was finally discovered in the radiator. As his hun- tresses were congratulating themselves on the capture, Oscar escaped again. In hot pursuit, they tracked him down to the top drawer of the chiffonier but before they took the drawer out and emptied its contents, Oscar had slipped into the second drawer. Through drawer after drawer, the hunt waxed feverishly, but Oscar remained at large and dashed mockingly into the closet. When all the clothes had been removed, Oscar was found in the tip of a Del- man shoe. With a shriek of courage, one of our heroines shook Oscar out. He quickly righted himself and crouched in the center of the room, he glared at his remover. Slowly and deliberately he moved toward her. Susie lost heart. She dashed out into the hall where her three compatriots were sitting on a storage box. They were quite calm as Susie with ter- rified squeals ran down the corridor, Oscar in close chase. He was gaining — closer — closer — pfft! Suddenly, for some inexplicable reason he disappeared into thin air. The mystery of Oscar has never been solved. It has been said that he still lives to plague his tormentors by scratching on their walls each night. A mere child ' s fancy no doubt. 119 BUZZ Buzz buzz Buzz buzz Buzz buzz And have you seen strange females wander- ing through the Jungle . . . strolling aimlessly about with a certain air of detachedness ... as if they belonged nowhere . . . had no one . . . were just orphans of the cold, cruel world? . . .

Buzz buzz Buzz buzz A caller! Who could it be ... ? AUTOBIOGRAPHY I took my last exam and came back to my room. I didn ' t come straight back, though. I stopped off at the basement of Barnard Hall to inspect my marks. I wanted to look at that D in History 1 and make sure. Yes, it was a D. I felt a burning desire to take my pen and make a B out of it, but I checked the impulse. I left the history grades soon; I didn ' t want anyone to find me looking at my D, and I knew I couldn ' t bear to hear anyone emote because her B plus wasn ' t an A minus. I inspected my three other marks again: C, C, and C. At least the D broke up the monotony. CCC, the nearest thing to WPA; it wouldn ' t be long now! I guess I ' m just not college material. I went back to my room. I opened up my scrap book and looked at my report card from high school. That always bolsters up my ego. I could hear some of my chums coming down the hall singing Home on the Range, but as they drew nearer, I heard different words. Their version went something like this: Oh give me a B To pull up that D Oh give me, oh give me a B! They opened my door. Think you made a B? 120 I passed it off lightly. In the Romantic Movement? Now, now, girls, I must have made at least a B in the Romantic Movement. You know the ole Barnard standards. But the grades came out and I only made a C after all. It was heartbreaking. I could see the letter coming: The Committee on Instruc- tion deems it advisable that in view of your unsatisfactory scholastic record for the last semester — Freshman rules, too! Oh, it was heart-breaking. And my friends: Say, I thought you were going to do great things in the Romantic Move- ment. Only a C? Tough luck, chum, but that ' s what you get for dating boys from the Union Theological Seminary. I felt pretty badly about it. I wrote a special delivery to my brother and told him about the letter which was bound to come: Dear Mr. , Enclosed you will find a copy of the letter we sent to your daughter. We think it is self- explanatory — I told my brother to withhold any official mail until I came home and explained. I could do it more tactfully than the Committee on Instruction. How I dreaded going near my mailbox these days, knowing too well that sooner or later a li ' l missive would be awaiting me. But another equally unwelcome message preceded it: See your adviser at your earliest convenience. Whew! My adviser was glad I came. I was glad someone was glad. I ' ve seen your grades, she said. I gulped and nodded. They aren ' t even average, she said. And English majors should be above average, you know. You didn ' t get above a C in your major, did you? And a D in another subject! I felt like a criminal. You ' ll never pass the comprehensive this way. Have you decided to what to change your major? This thought had never oc- curred to me. Why should I change my major? I was no better in anything else, but I s ' posed — Let ' s major in something without a com- prehensive. She was terribly nice. I didn ' t want to force myself in her department, but my next adviser might think it was a dirty trick. He might want to have me change my major, too. I ' d never get settled. We started at the beginning of the catalogue. Had any Anthropology, Archaeology, Bad- minton . . . ? There was no possible solution. I could not major in anything. It was too late. I never had more than three points in any one subject. When we got down to Sociology, Spanish and Zoology and still no major, I felt relieved. Maybe she ' d let me stick to English. But no, she had a much more drastic meas- ure. I have a wonderful idea, she said. I straightened up in my chair and gave her my undivided attention. Yes? I asked. Why don ' t you transfer to another college? Nothing subtle about the way she dropped the house on me. But I like it here. She threw up her hands. I went back to the dorms, completely worn out. C ' mon out to a movie, one of my pals said. You look as if you need one. We went down to the Nemo. After we bought tickets, I looked at the name of the co-feature. It was all I could bear. Girls on Probation was the title. This is the story of my life; I want to have it buried in the time capsule to comfort posterity, to cheer up little girls on Freshman rules who have 1.9 averages and can ' t do any extra- curricular activity — who can ' t even write for their Junior classbook because they ' re ineligible. Say, what am I doing writin ' this? EPILOGUE The contents of the capsule duly noted, Our archaeologist made haste to send A scholarly report to her foundation Atop the Pyrenees. This learned oration, Grave, recondite, o ' er which the trustees gloated, For your instruction, fair maids, we here append: The opening of the Barnard College Time Capsule has been progressing well, and the inventory of the contents nearly completed. Luckily, we have found a great many manu- scripts as well as actual material. This gives us a fairly clear (if curious) picture of modern college life, although the news card reporters would prefer more of the spectacular. 121 Perhaps the most striking find was the statue of a rather buxom female in a short nightshirt carrying some blunt weapon in her right hand. The papers attached said that the image repre- sented Jake, the spirit of Greek Games. Why the modern students worshipped an ultra- ancient female image with a masculine name will always remain a mystery. Another curious set of items is a collection of small, oblong, white pieces of a material halfway between paper and cardboard. One side of these objects is blank; the other bears lines parallel to the longer side. These, our manuscript states, are Student Male Cards, a designation very puzzling as all other records prove that there were only women students at the college in the twentieth century. Another relic is a metallic oblong box with a black disk attached to a spring in the center, seemingly a button which could be depressed at will. Articles such as this were called buzzers. This terminology appears to be onomatopoetic, and therefore, these gadgets made sounds similar to that made by the rattles of a rattlesnake. I believe that the machines were used as signals in time of danger. There are also sheets of paper with lists of proper names on them followed by either the first, second, third, fourth, or sixth letters of the modern alphabet. This was evidently some sort of protective magic. The letters of the alphabet must have held some sacred signifi- cance. At any rate, this find will disprove Professor Derrybottom ' s claim that E was the most widely used letter in the language, for here the letter is completely ignored. There are also groups of printed sheets bound with a cover bearing the title, Barnard Quarterly. From this name we gather that the monetary price of these books was twenty-five modern centenary units. We read mouldy copies of news bulletins with great interest. There were four classes of students although one individual could belong to more than one class. Dorm students were those who slept and ate in the classrooms, probably being in- structed by the lecture method. Commuters traveled on the modern railways and sub- ways, and gained education from observations en route. Transfers were those who came down from other schools, invaders who took on the customs of the country. Exchange stu- dents paid their tuition by a form of barter, instead of in the customary monetary units. Another classification called senior-junior- soph-frosh existed but as yet we do not under- stand it. Our latest discovery has been the image of a rodent, evidently another idol. This was named The Great High Cockolorum Arthur the Rat. I will write you again as soon as more dis- coveries are made. 122 Supposing . . Columbia Bookstore X lit, Iclllllly (JcLILlc LU IllOVfc.
