EX- LI TEACHERS COLLEGE OF THE CITY OF BOSTON LAMP A OF THE Four THE CLASS OF 1937 takes pleasure in dedicating THE LAMPAS to THE ALUMNI of THE BOSTON NORMAL SCHOOL and THE TEACHERS COLLEGE OF THE The Alumni of our College have always upheld its ideals and principles; they have ever maintained a close interest in their Alma Mater. We are proud to dedicate our Senior Annual to our predecessors, who have given constant proof of their loyalty to Teachers College. Thy word is a lamp to my feet, And a light to my paths. We set forth soon on a journey into strange lands, feeling a sense of loss because of the absence of good friends with whom we have passed many happy days. May this, our Lampas, serve not only as a beacon to guide our steps but as a light to give us hope and courage in the years to come. Seven Eizht Nine . . ,aJL i Ten ADMINISTRATION THE FACULTY To the Faculty, whose teaching has led us to the realization that Truth is beauty, beauty truth, we dedicate this page in our Senior Annual. Your high ideals have spurred us on to greater endeavors, and your enthu- siasm has made the search for knowledge a joyous undertaking. Keeping alight the torch, you pass it on to us. May we fulfil your trust and realize your hopes. For your sympathetic interest in us and in our progress, the Senior Class extends to you its heartfelt gratitude. Twelve DR. WILLIAM HENRY JOSEPH KENNEDY The strong leadership and wise guidance of our President, Dr. Kennedy, is an influence of inestimable value in the life of every student in the college. His depth of insight, his rich cul- tural background, his high educational standards, and broad human sympathies have won our respect and admiration. In him we see personified a professional ideal. DR. WILLIAM FRANCIS LINEHAN Dean Linehan has won our lasting friendship by his sincere personal interest in every individual. We admire him for the efficiency with which he discharges his many administrative duties, and for his unfailing thoughtfulness in meeting the needs of students and faculty alike. MARGARET MARY SALLAWAY To an invaluable friend and counsellor, Miss Sallaway, we express our deepest gratitude and loyalty. For the countless times we have received her wise advice, for the unfailing sym- pathy with which she has ever greeted our confidence, and for her many gracious and charming qualities, we shall always be grateful.

Twenty ENIORS ELEANOR TWOMEY LUCY CONDON BERTHA BAYARP « = ««-, Mtt - ,BSMSI MARIE MICHAELS SENIOR 5 Seldom do we have occasion to praise ourselves. However, we may justly give ourselves credit for the selection of class officers for our Senior year. Our president, Eleanor Twomey, is an executive who leads without being officious; who never makes a request unless she plans to share the labor entailed; who co- operates completely not only with the other class officers but with the leaders of other groups. She strives to meet the demands of all, to satisfy the class without displeasing others. She has not labored in vain, for we all agree that she has been a gracious executive with charming personality, and also a sincere friend to us all. Many of the memories of our Senior year are brilliant and lasting because of Eleanor ' s tireless zeal. It is true that Eleanor could not have accomplished so much this year with- out the assistance of the other class officers. The vice-president, Lucy Condon, has proved to be not only an able helper but an efficient substitute during the second semester. As a support to these two leaders, Betty Bayard, class treasurer, has devoted much time and effort to her work. Financial matters always present problems. Few of us could have coped with these difficulties in the calm, effective, business- like manner that was Betty ' s. Our secretary, Marie Michaels, has also been an ardent assistant in leading the class. To Marie we entrusted the task of keeping our class records. She has not disappointed us. In years to come, we shall look back on our happiest year, our Senior Year, with fond memories and sincere appreciation of the valuable work of our class leaders. Twenty-two GERTRUDE MARIE AHEARN Such a one as everyone should wish to be. The many offices Gertrude has held prove that she is one of the most popular members in the class. As an executive she is poised and dignified; as a student, earnest and ambitious; as a friend she is all one could wish. A casual acquaintance with her arouses the desire for a more intimate friendship. Her read - wit and her hearty laugh have helped smooth many an awkward moment. Gertrude will succeed in whatever she undertakes, not only be- cause of her ability but also because of her gracious personality.

MARGARET THERESA AIETA Trusty, dusky, vivid, true — Peggy is so filled with the joy of living that it shines out on her mobile face and from her expressive, sparkling eyes. Her carefree spirit is balanced by the happy faculty of realizing that there is a time and place for fun, and a time and place for work. The fact that she has duties to fulfill never detracts from her enjoyment of the moment, and yet those duties are always carried out to a perfect conclusion. Her gay little laugh is often heard from some merry group. For her taste in clothes, her skill in art, and her so- ciability, Margaret has gained a permanent place in our memories.

Twenty-three CONCETTA CLARE ALIBRANDI Love, sweetness, goodness, in her person shined So clear as in no face with more delight. No one who ever knew Cetta failed to admire her for her high ideals and her unswerving devotion to them. Her classmates cherish her tor the cheerful ness with which she meets each day ' s tasks, her unfailing readiness to aid in all activities, social or scholastic, and her gentle and gracious demeanor. She has shown her great love for music in her enthusi- astic participation in the work of the Music Club, and her deep appreciation of literature in her active part in the English Club. We can think of no higher tribute to Cetta than the fact that she has never made an enemy, nor ever lost a friend.

Behind Ann ' s quiet and unassuming manner are ability and perseverance. A good worker, Ann never spares herself in her desire to do everything well. She has diligence which inevitably brings success. To balance these serious characteristics is a love of fun which makes her a pleasant companion. Generos- ity is outstanding in Ann, and she never hesitates to offer much-desired material to one who has missed it. Throughout her years at Teachers College, she has shown herself proficient in whatever she has under- taken. Her ability is shown notably in her Spanish Club activities. Though Ann is a tiny girl, she has fine qualities, which will stand her in good stead in the future. Special-Class Course El Circulo Cast lano (Secretary ' 36); Welfare Club. Twenty-four BERTHA BAYARD Her ready wit and cheery smile Proclaim to all a friend worth while. Betty is the gay, friendly, vivacious type of person who makes herself beloved by all. With her ready wit and attractive smile she naturally draws friends to her, so that where Betty is, there is a happy smiling group. She is lighthearted, but not light-headed, for she has proved herself depend- able, steady, and responsible at all times. Her class- mates ' recognition of these traits can be seen by her election to club and class offices. In short, Betty is an all-round, well-balanced person, — a good scholar, a fine executive, a gay comrade, and a loyal friend.

HELEN GORDON BELL There is a fair behavior in thee. Helen ' s life is dominated by high ideals, fine dis- crimination, and a wholesome philosophy. She has shown her class how to meet a student ' s daily obliga- tions to herself and to those a round her in a charm- ing and intelligent manner. Her cheerfulness when all around her are complaining; her calmness when excitement rages everywhere; her silent enjoyment of many a situation — for these we remember and admire her. Her ability to lead has found expression in her work as section councillor and member of dance com- mittees. Helen has pursued her studies with an en- viable success which we all hope sincerely will follow every undertaking in the future.

Twenty-five BERLAH MAY BLACKWOOD OA white soul of youth So amorous of duty! In her quiet manner, Berlah never failed to take her part in college affairs and to be faithful to every duty. She greeted all with a friendly smile w hich, with her sincerity, won her a place in the hearts of her classmates. As head of the Poster Committee of the Self-Government Association during her Junior year, she helped the activities of the different clubs and classes by keeping the school informed about any events that were to take place. Her faithfulness and her artistic ability gave her office in the Art Club for two vears and made her a member of the Lampas Staff. Major: Art Miner: English Lampas Staff; Art Club (Treasurer ' 36, President ' 37); English Club; Welfare Club. EVE BRANDER Elegant as simplicity , And warm as ecstasy. Do good things always come in little packages? Eve suggests an affirmative answer to this question. A girl of vivacity, smiles, and activity, she sees her objective and makes straightway for it. Having conquered, she proceeds on to higher and yet higher accomplishment. So may you continue, Eve! Our best wishes go with you!

Sparkle is the very word that describes Rita. She has made a definite niche for herself in the hearts of all who know her. Her infectious laughter and vivacious personality have gladdened us many a time. One cannot associate with Rita without catching some of her good spirits. Hers is a generous and im- pulsive nature; yet she has a goodly amount of poise and self-assurance. Always dressed in the best of taste and perfectly groomed, she presents a pleasing picture. Her ability to manage a class and to win the respect of her pupils is something to marvel at. Truly a gifted teacher, she is bound to be a success in her chosen field.

' Because of her constant and earnest efforts during her college years, we all feel certain that Jeannette will win success in her future work. Her interest in geography will, no doubt, lure her to tar lands and make of her a great traveler. Jeannette is a good student, too, of history. Perhaps it is her study of history that has developed the democratic ideals which make for a strong champion in defending whoever or whatever she thinks right. Her fine executive ability has been valuable in club activities. Jean- nette ' s cheerful face and merry laugh will long be remembered by her classmates. Maior: Geography Minor: History Athletic Association; English Club; Geography Club; History Club; Welfare Club. Twenty-seven MARGARET MARY CALLAHAN The secret of success is constancy to purpose. How many people looking at quiet Peggy are aware of the business-like activity which characterizes her to those who know her? Purposeful determina- tion combined with keen intelligence has won for her a tine place on the honor roll throughout her college course. As the very capable president of the History Club in her Senior year, she has contributed much to the enjoyment and interest of that organiza- tion. Her unselfish nature and her loyalty make her a friend to cherish; her droll sense of humor and en- gaging naivete make her a friend to love.

MARY JACQUELINE CALLAHAN I love her for her smile — her look — her way Of speaking gently. Although she is quiet and reserved in manner, Mary is one of the friendliest of classmates and truest of friends. Her readiness to aid in the per- formance of any task and her talent in achieving work smoothly have been noticeable in all our class activi ties. As a loyal member of the Music Club she has taken delight in the fascinating programs which that club has presented to the college. Mary has a happy faculty of doing anything graciously and pleasantly. Alert and keen in her intellectual pursuits, easy and courteous in her social contacts, steadfast and joy- ous in her chosen companionships, Mary has gained the admiration and love of all. Special-Class Course Athletic Association; Classical Club; Music Club; Welfare Club. Twenty-eight PATRICIA CALLANAN Wit to persuade and beauty to delight. Pat is a constant joy to her friends for her amazingly contradictory personality. We are aware of her sincere appreciation of the best in literature, her abiding love for the finest in music, the penetrat- ing quality of her mind; and yet it is the refreshing youthfulness of her attitude toward life that sets her apart from the rest of the group. Pat has none of the false blase pose of the so-called sophisticate, but finds joy in the smallest of the day ' s activities. Her unfailing enthusiasm, her infectious gayety revealed by a humorous remark and a mirth-provoking chuckle, and particularly her evident pleasure in the society of her classmates make her the most delight- ful of companions, the most satisfactory of friends.

She has true executive ability, the ability to make others work for her and to coordinate this work into a perfectly-organized whole. Eager, alert, and full of lively and spontaneous conversation, Lucy is a much sought-after member of any group. She can always be relied on to lend a willing and able hand to any enterprise, no matter how large or how small. Her classmates will remem- ber her capable work in the offices she has held, nor will her friends fail to recall her warm interest and sincere enjoyment of their companionship.

Twenty-nine MARION GERTRUDE CONNOLLY Wherever she stayed, joy would stay. Marion is one of the most friendly and sociable girls in the class. No one derives more satisfaction and happiness from her work, no one brings to it a greater love or a finer mind than Marion. Her fault- less grooming and distinctive taste in clothes add to the charm of her personality. Yet we shall always remember best her unfailing good-nature. Gay, humorous, with a twinkle in her eyes and a pleasant word on her lips, Marion will never lack companion- ship, for she has within herself the spirit of joy. Kindergarten-Primary Course Classical Club; Drama Club; Music Club; Welfare Club. CARMELA EILEEN CONROY Her ways are ways of pleasantness, And all her paths are peace. Carmela is one of those quiet and reserved girls who reveal the most fascinating qualities in the small circle of their select friends. Many of us have seen her performing the tasks of the day calmly and effici- ently, and have remained unaware of the vivacity that underlies her tranquility of spirit; but to her chosen companions she has shown the merriness and love of laughter that are so truly hers. We all value Carmela for her integrity of character; we respect her for her intellectual powers; but we love her for her never-changing good nature and her sincere loyalty to her friends.

Thirty ELINOR PATRICIA CULLEN A sweet, attractive kind of grace. Elinor ' s poise and charming appearance make her a perfect choice for any executive position. As President of the Junior class, she showed her ability to cooperate as well as to supervise, and made every girl proud of her class and willing to work for it. Her conversation is full of thought provoking ideas enlivened by a quizzical smile and dry humor. She is a stimulating member of any class because of her interest in her work and her ability in accomplishing that work. Her efficiency as an officer of the Self- Government Association has been proved by her able direction of its activities. A delightful acquain- tance, a loyal friend, and a classmate to be proud of is Elinor.

CAROLYN FRANCES DACEY A face with gladness overspread — ' Dot has never attempted a task which she did not carry out to completion with speed and skill. As a student she has shown a diligence and a sincerity of effort that were a definite assurance of her success. To her social life she brought an ease and graciousness of manner born of a genuine interest in the achieve- ments of others and a delight in good company. But to most of us Dot will be remembered for the youthful zest with which she approached all tasks. Somehow that gayety and liveliness were contagious, and we eagerly sought her company to enjoy the refreshing outlook on life that never found anything dull or uninteresting.

Thirty-one MARGARET MARY DIXON As merry as the day is long. Peg is one of the gayest, sprightliest, prettiest girls we have ever known. Filled with the joy of living, she faces all things with an optimism and confidence that recognizes no obstacles. We have no doubt that Peg will find success in her field, for her love of children and her adequate knowledge of her subjects give assurance of that. No place is ever dull when graced by this girl, for her vivid charm fascinates all with whom she comes in contact. Nor will this merriness ever cease to enchant us, for she has a genuine capacity for sincere friendship that grows with the years.

Twinkling Irish eyes and the wit that goes with them are only two of Rita ' s claims to fame. For four years, she has held offices in the Athletic Associa- tion, — offices dependent not only on popularity but on scholarship as well. Recognition of her fine quali- ties won her a place on the Lampas Staff, where she demonstrated her energy and efficiency. Rita has the happy faculty of participating in all college and social activities, and yet she is never too rushed to join her friends in conversation, — or even in giggles. A hard worker when there is work to be done, and an equally hard player at other times, — a gay companion at all times, that ' s Rita.

Thirty-two MARIE CECILIA DOUGHERTY Would I were steadfast as thou art! To be able to approach any duty with a clear understanding of the responsibility which it entails, to perform that task with competence and a minimum of worry, and to maintain at all times calmness and cheerfulness are Marie ' s gifts. Yet she is not merely an efficient organizer, but a gay companion simply bubbling over with joy on all occasions. She looks forward with glad anticipation to all that each tomor- row holds. We hope, Marie, that you will never lose your zest for life, and that you will face each problem with the courage which you have shown in college.

ALICE MAUDE DWYER In action faithful and in honor clear. Alice has one of the most piquant natures we have known. Because she is shy, not everyone is aware of her vast fund of unusual humor. It is rich in its variety, subtle in its implications, and is directed as readily against herself as against others, — that is a true sense of humor! Those with whom she is intimate know also her loyalty, devotion, and generous spirit. Alice ' s presence adds much to the enjoyment of a class, for her emotions are mirrored in her expressive face, showing in rapid succession laughter, gravity, enthusiasm, dissension, agreement, thoughtfulness, — by which the trend of the lesson can be traced. Alice is going to get much joy out of life because she puts so much originality into it.

Life for Alma will never be dull. The ability to see and enjoy the humorous side of things brightens all she does. While her enthusiastic nature and vivaci- ty make Alma an amusing companion, her sincere loyalty endears her to her friends. We feel sure her artistic ability will insure her success in her chosen field. May you never lose your unforgettable charac- teristics, — a tendency to quote Shakespeare, a love for superlatives, and an impish twinkle and smile.

From the day of her entrance into college, Anne has taken her place in all class activities with a poise and dignity that make her the pride and envy of her classmates. She has a rare quality of social ease that assures her filling any position with charm and grace. We feel instinctively that Anne is a born executive, — a girl who takes a genuine delight in arranging the details that make any affair run smooth- ly. But to her friends Anne shows a completely unexpected quality, — an impish Puck-like humor that finds expression in a ready wit, a merry twinkle in her lovely eyes, and a delightful quirk of her lips. A fine intellect, a warm charm, a lovely face, and a steadfast soul — how rich are Anne ' s endowments!

Thirty-jour ROSE MARIETTA FODALE Demure and dignified is she, But full of fun as she can be. Rose is petite, yet she carries herself so well that she gives the appearance of stateliness; and she al- ways has a happy smile. Sincerely loyal to her many friends, she is ever willing to help them in any way she can. There is an air of romance and joy about her. Her fine ability to act adds to her versatility. She is often called the Duchess, because of the manner in which she carries herself. Quick and graceful, she is the personification of the ideal American college girl as she enthusiastically participates in all sports. Serious though Rose may be during serious hours of the day, she sparkles with joy and glee in her lighter moments.

Sylvia is one of the most alert and progressive girls in the class. Nothing is too small to capture her whole-hearted interest; nothing is too large to be conquered by her indomitable spirit. Her energy seems boundless, and she carries out each assignment with the same tirelessness whether it be at the be- ginning of the day or after a strenuous program. Sylvia ' s interests are many; she was a prominent member of the cast of the plays given by El Circulo Castellano, she has been an enthusiastic member of the Science Club, and her great interest in athletics is well known. It has been a stimulating experience to know such a dynamic personality as Sylvia.

No Drama Club meeting was ever complete, no play ever assured of success, unless Eleanor was present to contribute her keen knowledge of the drama and her whole-hearted efforts to the activities. She has such an enthusiasm for this art that she inspires all those with whom she comes in contact with a desire to know more about it. But her interests are not confined to the drama. Eleanor is a good student, an excellent dancer, and an able executive in club activities. We who know her best have a deep affection for her, because of her quick wit, her fund of bright anecdotes, her scorn of shirking any of the routine duties of committees, and her staunch loyalty to her friends.

She is a model well worthy of imitation. Not only has she been very successful in school work, but she has shown some of us the grace and skill with which she dances. As a faithful mem- ber of the Commercial Club, Doris was always will- ing to lend a helping hand wherever it was needed. We wish you the best of luck, Doris, and may you go through life with the same charm and grace which were yours in college days.

Catherine ' s earnestness, sincerity, and intelligence make her popular with her teachers, but her delightful sense of humor which is marked by some remarkable punning, and her real talent for friendship endear Giggy ' ' to her classmates. Natural ability explains to a great extent her success in school and in extra-curricular activities, such as the Girl Scouts, the Biology Society, and the Science Club, but hard work, re- sourcefulness, and consideration for others are addi- tional reasons. We are all proud of this outstanding member of the class and wish her the best of luck.

Equipped with the talents of the born teacher, she has that quality which is the basis of all true instruction, — a deep and lasting love for children, — a love which they return in full measure. Arline ' s skill in hand work is well known, for her swift knit- ting-needles have produced lovely articles that are distinctively hers. Her efficient and cheery manner, her winning smile, and her staunch loyalty to her friends have made Arline a beloved classmate.

Lenore has a very quiet, simple manner, yet to know her is to admire her. Though she is so quiet, she cannot conceal her virtues from us. Beneath the appearance of reserve, we find that Lenore is coopera- tive and friendly. Though she never intrudes on anyone, she is always present when there is an oppor- tunity to do something for others. These traits of Lenore ' s character make her a valued member of our class.

One of the most vivacious gi rls in the class, Mary- unites with a well-informed mind and a clear under- standing the capacity and desire for friendship. She has much to offer her friends. She is a master of the art of pleasant banter. Her sunny smile and buoyancy of spirits give piquancy to her personality. It is not the cheeriness of her nature alone that wins her friends. Generosity, sympathy, loyalty and dis- cernment mark Mary as a rare companion. We ad- mire her integrity, but more important, we are grateful for her eager willingness to share in our in- terests and activities.

One of the most agreeable members of the class is this pleasant girl. Possessed of a highly idealistic nature, Mary is happiest in the realms of the poets, particularly Wordsworth, Tennyson, and Robert Frost. Also she writes with a lyrical pen when duly inspired. Her great love for human nature finds expression in a very understanding and sympathetic personality. She is an enthusiastic participant in sports, performing admirably in all. Finally, not the least among her diverse interests is her joy in fine music, for by song or symphony Mary ' s spirit is uplifted to the heights.

With fine discernment she has assimilated all that a real college life should give, and stamped it with the ma rk of a vivid personality. There is never an occasion when she does not know exactly what to do and how to do it. Yet this poise is accompanied by a happy, friendly demeanor that reveals the youthful quality of her charm. Sadie loves a pleasant chat with a congenial group, and a group gains much by her presence. A rare combina- tion of dignity and youthful high spirits, — that is Sadie.

Evelyn will be remembered as a fun-loving girl with a happy smile and a hearty laugh. Combined with a vivacious spirit was a strong will which caused her to defend her views at all times, no matter what the opposition might be. Her frank and amusing way of telling ju st what she thought was refreshing and entertaining to her classmates. Her artistic ability has led her to choose to teach in the field of art, and has made her an Assistant Art Editor on our Lampas Staff. Major: Art Minor: English Self.

Her dramatic instinct, her witty remarks, her supreme good nature, and her simple friendliness have made her stand out as one of the best-liked members of the class. Yvonne ' s achievements will not end with her graduation, but through her radiant personality she will go on to greater fields of accomplishment.

Forty IRENE ANNE HENNESSEY Gentle in manner, firm in reality Irene ' s life is full, for her interests are many. She is an excellent scholar, and yet she delights in all forms of out-door activity. Her skill in handling a sailboat is a cause of great admiration on the part of her friends. Her readings and interpretations of French poetry are remarkable. Her gay manner has made her the center of a small group of intimate friends, and her quiet and gentle dignity has assured her a high place in the class. Serenity, poise, and forward-looking thoughts will make Irene ' s success in the years to come as great as it was in the class.

Mary is one of the most stimulating and charm- ing members of the class. She has achieved the rare quality of balance in her personality. She blends perfectly the seriousness and the gayety, the sociabil- ity and the reserve, the self-confidence and the humil- ity that make for the truly all-round individual. Mary is the supreme raconteuse of the class. Her inimitable tales are characterized by a lively wit that provokes laughter yet never wounds, and a serious expression that is belied by a voice which seems to have difficulty in suppressing that mirth with which she is so full. Her graciousness and poise, her sincerity as a friend and cheerfulness as a comrade, have gained Mary a secure place in our hearts.

Forty-one MARY BORGIA HUTCHINSON She is gay and gladsome, Has a laughing face And a heart as sunny, No member of the class deserves her widespread popularity more than Hutchie, for no one has been so gay and happy in the midst of many duties. Perhaps she had moments of discouragement, but she never failed to have a pleasant word or a sunny smile for whomever she met. Her class has shown its confidence in her reliability and faithfulness by placing her in charge of Photography for the Lampas. In this position Mary excelled. Her cheerful answers to our innumerable questions and her helpful advice made her a favorite with us all. We shall remember you, Hutchie, as one who knew how to be jolly and when to be serious.

ANNETTE NAOMI KANTER How sweet and gracious even in common speech Annette is one of those quiet members of our class who is so integral a part of the class. Possessed of outstanding scholarship, Annette forges ahead toward a given objective with perseverance and courage. Yet in her ambitions she does not neglect to reveal the cheerful and pleasant side of her nature, a side that wins her countless loyal friends. Her kindness, her tolerance, her willingness to help, and her rich sense of humor have radiated to everyone with whom she has come in contact. We feel sure that Annette ' s accuracy and precision of knowledge, with her graceful and easy manner, will go far to gain her success in her teaching.

With an intense interest in current literature, drama, politics, and world relationships; with an ability to form definite opinions and to defend them sincerely; with the driving force of a serious purpose and conscientious effort, Lillian is our representative of those who want the best in life and education and are anxious and willing to share it. Lillian ' s creed may well be, Let me speak my mind, but it is a mind that has been ever alert and receptive, a mind that has weighed and balanced, then assimilated.

Her poise and perseverance are qualities to be envied. With her business-like effi- ciency, and her fine sense of humour, she is certain to meet with success in any field of endeavor.

Everyone who knows Kell has admired her for the persistence and energy she has displayed in all her undertakings, from her entrance into the college through her busy Senior year. No matter what she was asked to do, she was always ready. Her outstanding quality of sincerity in giving her best has been shown in her efficient work on various committees, especially as a Welfare Club aide, in which capacity she did some remarkable work. We admire also her fine sportsmanship in the A. A. Those of us who knew her intimately were amazed at her indomitable energy in extra-curricular acti- vities. Rita, with her steadfast friendliness, generous willingness to cooperate, and, most of all, her com- radely spirit, has been a real friend and a loyal class- mate.

KATHERINE MARY KELLY Her gesture, motion, and her smile, Her wit, her voice, my heart beguile. Who among us has not had some personal contact with Kay ' s sparkling personality and strong leader- ship? Whether she were directing a play, running a dance, or working out plans for a club meeting, her charm, her efficiency, and her ever-present sense of humor always were evident. In her studies, too, she has shown her ability to carry a thing through suc- cessfully, giving her best efforts to the task at hand. With her versatile talent and her sincere interest in the welfare of her class, she has been one of the out- standing girls of the Class of ' 37. Surely she will go far on the road to happiness and success, and with her go our best wishes.

Only those who know her best can appreciate and pay tribute to her depth of character and her fine courage. May she continue to brighten the lives of her friends and associates wherever she goes!

For four years we have sought in vain to analyze Dorothy ' s charm, and we discover that she grows ever more elusive. We are warmed by her friendli- ness; we are baffled by her reticence. She sits among us, quiet and unobtrusive, and then startles us with a vivid point drawn from her vast reading, or in- spires us with wonder at the matchless ease with which she expresses her thoughts in writing. And yet we remember these talents only as the background of that quality which is the source of her charm, — that delightful humor, so delicate in its whimsy, so pungent in its flavor, so rapier-like in its keenness, and above all, so mellow in its understanding. Other women cloy the appetities they feed; but you make hungry where most you satisfy.

Forty-jive FRANCES ROBERTA LAPPIN She gave with zest, and she gave her best. It was evident from Frances ' first days in our college that she would choose to teach in the kinder- garten-primary school, and a worthy choice it is, for she is loved dearly by the younger children and is well adapted to teach them. Her outstanding abilities in dramatics, music, and dancing give her a fine equipment with which to work in the lower grades. Motivated by her intense interest in chil- dren and in finding the best methods ot teaching them, she has proved to be a most dependable and conscientious student. Among her friends Frances will be remembered as a gay, laughing girl who delighted in dancing and skipping about through class-rooms and corridors after study time was over.

Throughout her college lite, Gen has taken an interested and spirited part in all class activities. Possessed of fine executive ability, she has been a capable organizer of teas, Welfare Club work, and other important functions. Her definite flair for smart clothes, her rapid and decisive speech, her appealing, low, husky voice, all have made Gen stand out as a distinctive personality. We shall miss that ardent enthusiasm combined with fine ability which made her contribution to the class so unusual. We know, however, that her fine talents will assure her success in the work which she has chosen.

Forty-six DOROTHY KENDRICK LENNON There was a soft and pensive grace A cast of thought upon her face. Dorothy is one whose unassuming attitude and sweet simplicity have endeared her to all who know her, — a shy little girl whose innate modesty and even temper are outstanding attributes. She is a girl with a charm all her own, — a gentle charm that will long be remembered by her friends. With all these attributes she has an amazingly keen sense of humor, a slow drawl, and quaint gestures that make her anecdotes unique. Inclined to be reserved and retiring, never forward or boisterous, Dot is a quiet-natured person whose high ideals ot generosity and unselfishness are never lowered. Angelic of face and with a disposition to match, — that ' s Dorothy.

Her carefree manner, always tempered by thought- fulness for others, makes Esta a person in whose com- pany one is always happy and at ease. No task, how- ever difficult, can disturb her serenity. She is always willing to lend a hand, ever ready to aid when an occasion arises. Her capacity for work is exceeded only by her delight in performing that work. Her helpfulness is an expression of her innate generosity. She radiates friendliness with the smile in her dark eyes. Times may change, but Esta remains un- changed, with the same steady and reliable traits of character she brought to the school when she first entered, but now deepened and more firmly estab- lished.

Fortv-sesen MARGARET CAROLINE LIMMER To those who know thee not, no words can faint And those who know thee, know all words are faint. Margaret is one of those rare people who are fortunate in possessing a proper sense of values. Her scholastic achievements have been outstanding, but marks are not her objective. She is rather reserved in a large group, so that some, perhaps, do not wholly appreciate her; but with her friends she exhibits a delightful sense of humor, and an infectious en- thusiasm for everything she does. An intelligent appreciation of contemporary literature and politics, no small musical talent, and an ever-ready stock of information on almost any subject are merely a few of the characteristics of Margaret ' s versatile person- ality. She has charmed us all with her fascinating chuckle and the lovely red hair which seems to em- phasize her refreshing zest and spirit.

Forty-eight ROSE RITA LYNCH ' Tis the songs you sing and the smiles you wear That make the sunshine everywhere. On first meeting Rose, one could not help being attracted by her bright eyes. In them one saw signs of the quick, brilliant mind which made it so easy for her to grasp her school studies. Her deep love of music and her lovely voice made it possible for her to give happiness and entertainment to her class- mates. Aside from the enjoyment which she con- ferred through her musical ability, Rose ' s keen wit, frankness, and dry manner of making humorous remarks brought many a moment of mirth to those around her. Her earnestness and desire to do her best will mean a great deal in making her life a success. Major: Music Minor: Mathematics Classical Club; Mathematics Society; Music Club; Welfare Club. ROSALIE PATRICIA MACKLE Zealous yet modest Although Rosalie has been among us for four years, she always has been so unassuming that few of us have had the opportunity to appreciate her true wit and humor. To all who have had the good for- tune to be associated with her, she has proved her- self a staunch friend and a pleasant companion. Her interest in the Science Club is revealed by her ready willingness to participate in its activities at all times.

Forty-nine MARIE BEATRICE MAGGIORE A friendly S7iiile and a friendly way One has to know Marie to appreciate fully her friendly personality. Sincerity and sympathetic understanding are qualities which mark not only her teaching but her friendships. Modest and unassum- ing, Marie has nevertheless gained a definite place in class activities. Her presence is a soothing influence on an excited group, tor her serene calm is rarely ruffled or lost. Marie has a sweet voice which was heard to advantage in the operetta, Iolanthe, given in our Sophomore year. May you always retain that tranquility of spirit so unusual in this rushing world, Marie.

All who know Marie heartily agree that she is one of the most genuine of girls. A capable student, a great lover of sports, an able executive, Marie has proved her versatility and her enthusiasm along many lines. There is something so fine about Marie ' s attitude of responsibility toward anything which she undertakes, so gentle and modest in the success which has been hers, so unfailingly true in her rela- tions with her classmates, that we unconsciously look up to her as a shining example of the best in modern girlhood. Marie ' s cheerful and sunny disposi- tion and her willing cooperation have gained her many devoted friends.

Fifty MARJORIE KATHERINE MAGUIRE Sincerity and truth are the basis of every virtue. Throughout her college years, Marjorie ' s cheer- ful, quiet manner has been evident. She might well be called a power behind the throne, for she always seemed to be present at the right moment. Even if the responsibility was not hers, she was always will- ing to help. Wherever there was work to be done, Marjorie could be found, — whether it were washing dishes at a Self-Government Tea or cutting cake at a Commercial Club meeting. Class affairs would not be complete without Marjorie ' s ready wit and helping hand. Her even disposition, and calm, cool manner will long be remembered and admired.

Helen belongs to the group of girls in the class who were outstanding for their quiet accomplish- ment of the duties of the day. Her face is lighted, however, by one of the most appealing smiles, that begins with a twinkle in her eyes and ends with a humorous quirk of her lips. She is always on the alert to answer the questions of both her fellow class- mates and her instructors. Whatever the occasion, Helen can be depended upon to enter into it with whole-hearted enthusiasm. The keenness of her humor is evident in the rapidity of her retorts, — such lively wit being a distinct surprise in view of her reserve. Helen ' s fine scholarship and her excellent artistic ability have made her an invaluable member of the Lampas Staff. Major: Art Minor: History Lampas Staff; Art Club; Welfare Club. Fifty-one MARIE FRANCES MAHONEY And she was fair as fair could be. Marie is so blessed with many talents that it is difficult to capture the essence of her personality in a few words. She combines in just the right pro- portions the skill of the artist with the precision of the scientist, the seriousness of the scholar with the gayety of a madcap. Her outward fairness is given added richness by an inward fineness of character that finds expression in the highest ideals ot conduct. Her pleasing voice, her gentle actions, and her warm humor make Marie a pleasant companion; her loyalty and understanding make her a true friend. She is, indeed, lovely to look at, delightful to know. Major: General Science Minor: English Art Club: English Club; Science Club; Welfare Club.

Natural ability combined with conscious effort place her high in scholastic attainment. Reli- able and smoothly efficient in every undertaking, she compels our whole-hearted admiration. If our admiration is tinged with envy, it is because Agnes possesses the quality which we have all striven to attain, — graciousness. Beneath her dignified exterior is an irrepressible spirit of mirth, revealing itself in an infectious laugh and in an aptitude for humorous imitations. Gracious, lovely, and gifted, Agnes will find high place in whatever profession she chooses.

One of the busiest and most active girls, Jo, as an officer in the Drama and in the Welfare Club, and an outstanding member of the Commercial Club, has proved that initiative and responsibility are among her foremost qualities. Her quickness is as noticeable in the classroom as on the athletic field. There is no faltering or hesitancy in Jo, for she gains her objectives with the most direct and skilled methods possible. Notwithstanding her great abilities, she has an agreeable and modest demeanor. Her infectious smile, with her eyes all crinkled up, will be recalled as the outward sign of an inward good nature.

ELEANOR FRANCES McELENEY She is pretty to walk with, and witty to talk with, And pleasant, too, to think on. Eleanor is so filled with exuberant spirits, so delighted with a variety of pursuits, that we are ir- resistibly drawn to her. We have never been dis- appointed, for whether it be in the solution of a difficulty or in the carefree exchange of pleasant chat, Eleanor has entered into the spirit of the occasion with all the keenness of mind and liveliness of humor that are hers. In truth, it is with some degr ee of surprise that we realize the depth of Eleanor ' s knowl- edge of the classics, for she has a vivacity and sim- plicity which are the mark of youthfulness. Perhaps the secret of her attractiveness lies in the possession of that charm with which you don ' t need to have anything else.

Her quick rush of words, her sparkling wit and infectious chuckle, and her mobile and ex- pressive face make her the spirit of Youth incarnate. Somehow she has brought gayety and ardor to all her activities, and her friends are warmed and stirred by her glowing interest in life in general. Helen ' s disarming candor is a bit startling at times, but her eagerness and friendliness express the quick sympathy and the fine understanding that mark her as an in- dividual.

What- ever may be the problem she gives to it the untiring zeal of a lively mind. The crown of her achievements is, however, on the modesty with which she completes her work. There is no trace of the arrogantly success- ful in Louise, but rather the quiet simplicity of the truly gentle soul. She sees what is to be done and does it without expecting any public acclaim. For her ability, her unfailing courtesy and friendliness, and her reserved charm, Louise has won the respect and high regard of her class.

Her scholastic attainments are of a high order, and her initiative and executive ability have received recognition both in club work and in class offices. To these qualities she adds a voice of such charm and sweetness that the college will be the poorer when she no longer graces the Music Club programs and operet- tas. Her willingness to share her gifts, her gay and vivacious manner, her ever-present fund of tales, and her frank enjoyment of the company of others have made her a valued member of our class.

Its full resonant quality is charac- teristic of her hearty good nature. Her ready throaty laughter indicates that she enjoys everything whole- heartedly. There is no timidity, no half-way manner about her actions. She has always been direct, enthusiastic, and responsive. That is why she is welcomed everywhere as the merriest of companions. Her success in her studies and her ability as a social leader, shown by the many dances she has helped to arrange, prove her capability and give her an all- round personality.

Can we wonder then that Ruth is a centre around which many friends cluster?

Stu- dious and intense, she follows the path of the trained scholar, pursuing her school work with a diligence in proportion to her depth ot intellectual endowment. Gone are the care-free moods; here are quiet, reflec- tive hours, spent either in solitude or in the quiet company of her classmates. She compels our admira- tion, wins our love, and never commands our under- standing. But life with such a person, — so elusive, so gay and happy, yet pensive and serious, — has been and always will be satisfying and stimulating.

Some persons we all know; others we wish to know; but there are some whom it is a privilege and an honor to know. Such is Rose. What a remarkable mind behind that gracious, retiring, and modest personality! Only the chosen few can share her quick wit, delightful humor, clever word, and measured phrase. She is ever a source ot pleasure and comfort to us, her friends. Never shirking, ever willing, our Rose with her linguistic ability will aspire to the heights of ambition. In the future, as now, we shall cherish the thought that we may say She is our friend.

Sixty-three MARY KATHLYN PRENDERGAST Her best things are done in the flash of a moment. Mary, our young Bio-Chemist, early gave herself to the sciences, and if present indications are true, her name will be set down as one who has made an original contribution. As a third-floor inhabitant Mary has been outstanding for her whole-hearted interest and the thoroughness and accuracy with which she carries on her work in the laboratory. Although in biology she has the persevering spirit that keeps her at the microscope long after others have given up, it is the unexpectedness of her moods and remarks which delights her friends. The gift ot the soft answer which turneth away wrath is hers, and the power to enlighten a dull or serious oc- casion with her flashing wit.

Self-contained yet friendly, able yet modest, Gertrude has won the high esteem of her classmates. Never was there an occasion on which she did not offer her willing aid. Her quiet manner has been in some ways rather misleading, for it masks as lively and refreshing a spirit of fun as may be found any- where. Among Gertrude ' s admirable traits is that of self-mastery; she never becomes flustered or upset when things do not go exactly right. We consider it a privilege to have known this charming and reserved girl, for she has given us much in her own modest way. Major: Shorthand-Typewriting Minor: Accounting, Commercial Geography.

Sixty-jour MARGARET MARY QUINN A mind at peace with all below A heart whose love is innocent Margaret presents a paradoxical nature, for although she retains the delightful, old-fashioned charm of gentle courtesy and womanly refinement, yet she is one of the most intensely modern girls in the class. Sensitive to the finer things of life, gracious in manner, and sincere in devotion to the highest ideals in her daily living, Margaret represents the best type of college student. She is deeply loved by her friends for her unfailing amiability, her quaint and engaging drawl, and her unselfish loyalty to them. Never critical of others, Margaret faces any situation secure in her faith in humanity, and in the realization that she is loved by all who know her. What a rare personality is hers!

CATHERINE REDICAN It ' s good to be merry and wise, It ' s good to be honest and true. One feels that Cay can always be relied upon to lend cheerful and helpful assistance in any per- plexing question that arises. Sincere and unaffected, she is a welcome member in any group. We feel that half of our problem is solved when we relate it to Cay, for no more sympathetic or patient listener ever lived. Not only is she our solace in troubles, but her appreciative chuckle has made many a gay- tale seem more amusing and her warm smile has given zest to our joyousness. She has proved her worth in her efficient activity in the Welfare Club, and has been honored by her section in being chosen as senior councillor. Her many friends are sufficient proof of her charm.

Sixty-live JOSEPHINE THERESE ROCHE Courage and sturdy heart were there, The will to do, the soul to dare. Jo is one of the most candid girls in the class. She has no half-way measures; her friends are assured of a vigorous champion of their causes, for she is loyal with every fibre of her nature. It has been a joy to watch the dispatch with which she achieves every goal which is set for her, and yet Jo is one of the most modest and unaffected members of our class. Her merry sense of humor and her laconic and dry wit make her sure of a warm welcome in any group. Fidelity to ideals, generosity to friends, and courage in any enterprise have helped to make Jo not only an esteemed classmate but an eagerly sought com- panion Major: General Science Minor: Art Class Treasurer ' 35; Lampas Staff: El Circulo Castellano; Science Club; Welfare Club. FLORENCE CLARKE ROONEY Yow wit makes others witty. ' Light-hearted and cheery, Florence trips along without ever being really worried over the problems that harass other Seniors. Perhaps this insouciance is prompted by the inner conviction that she is equipped with a quick and alert mind, perfectly capable of solving problems or unusual situations that may confront her. Florence is very independent, but her independence does not prevent her from form- ing lasting friendships; and her sincerity, loyalty, and good nature assure the continuance of these friendships. We feel that she will always have the courage to face life frankly and confidently. As a violinist she has aided materially in making the String Ensemble the popular and accomplished group that it is. We have grown to love this merry and true friend.

Sixty-six MARY AGNES ROONEY Magnificence and grate — excellent courtesy Looking back on Mary, we shall remember a girl whose face was lit up by sparkling blue eyes, a girl who was always well-groomed and most taste- fully dressed. Her air of quiet dignity was in direct contrast with an incorrigible sense of mischief which was not above playing a prank on her friends. Her quiet wit entertained her classmates on many an occasion. No social affair was ever complete unless graced by Mary ' s presence. May you continue as you have begun, Mary, to perform each act with the skill and ease born of a knowledge of true social values. Major: General Science Minor: Mathematics Mathematics Society; Science Club; Welfare Club. FREDA SHULMAN Those eyes affectionate and glad It is rightly said that a good listener is much better company than one who dominates the conver- sation. Freda ' s charm rests partly on her ability to listen with interest and sympathy. She plans but does not order; she gives but does not force her help; therefore she pleases all. Her cheerful personality is reflected in smiling eyes and a joyous expression. A happy heart will win for Freda a contented life. Major: History Minor: Geography Athletic Association; Welfare Club. CALLIE SMITH The reason firm, the temperate will, Endurance, foresight, strength and skill. Gentle and quiet, unpretentious and unassuming, Callie has established herself in the hearts of her classmates as a girl to be admitted by everyone. Though of a retiring nature, she has shown her worth in all the school activities, pursuing with equal dili- gence both class and other interests. Her ability to see a thing through from beginning to end, letting no obstacles deter her from her object, has been a lesson in perseverance to those who have studied with her these four years. With the combination of good intelligence and the ambition which she has shown she possesses, we predict that Callie will go far as a responsible and admirable member of the teaching profession.

HELEN MARIE SNAPHY The force of her own merit makes her way. Helen ' s outstanding distinction during her college years was, without question, her fine musical talent. Called upon on many occasions, Helen would play the piano in our String Ensemble or accompany vocal or instrumental soloists at many of our Teas. She always did a task that interested her with a quick- ness and a perseverance which brought success in its accomplishment. These qualities will mean a great deal in her endeavors in future years. One cannot think of Helen without remembering her deep loyalty and her sincere devotion to her college friends.

In short, Anita is a girl whose friendship is valuable. Kindergarten-Prim ary Course Athletic Association; Music Club; Welfare Club. Sixty-nine BARBARA MARY STOCKS A light heart lives long. Barbara has for these four years quietly and effi- ciently pursued her way toward her elected life-work. So simply has she accomplished all that she set her heart on, that many have been unaware of her deep love of life and merriment. With fine discrimination she has chosen her friends and kept them. Their unwavering loyalty and unswerving devotion to her show the power of her charm and the integrity of her character. Her responsiveness to the demands of true college life, the courtesy and grace that marked her social contacts, and the quiet friendliness of her attitude toward her classmates reveal her as an in- dividual of many gifts.

Steady and reliable in her class work, sane and wholesome in her outlook on life, Chris is one of those people who can always be depended on to do the right thing at the right time. If she is ever worried, we do not know it, for she maintains a cheer- ful and happy disposition on all occasions.

How often has the locker- room rung with laughter at some droll and unexpected quip which Ida has uttered with an expressive lift of her eyebrow and that enchanting smile which is hers alone! Nor is this jollity the sole reason for her charm. A keen, analytic mind, the power of succinct expres- sion, ready willingness to aid in all activities, remark- able agility on the athletic field, smooth grace in dancing, — all attest to Ida ' s versatility. For those who know her, Ida ' s great zest for life has made her a matchless companion.

KATHLEEN FRANCES SULLIVAN So full of summer warmth, so glad — ' Kathleen is a girl with whom association brings enrichment. Although she has a charming appear- ance, it is the beauty of the inner spirit that wins her friends. She is gentle, sympathetic, wise, in a way that denotes deep thought; yet she can also be non- chalant and gay. Kay appears to be a contradiction, but her diverse qualities are blended in such perfect harmony as to produce that warmth, that cleverness, that all-round likeableness that we have enjoyed so much, particularly in her activities in the Drama Club. We shall not soon forget her unselfishness, her unassuming way of accepting her various honors, and her endearing sincerity.

Her activity in the class has been marked by an unswerving devotion to duty and a willing acceptance of responsibility. She has held offices in the History Club, has been an interested member of the Geography Club, and an earnest and indefatigable worker on the car-check committee. Only those who know her intimately realize her cour- age and cheerfulness.

Her work reveals the fine thought, careful planning, and efficient achievement that are the prod- ucts of an able mind. The capability with which she accomplishes her tasks, and her friendly albeit reserved attitude, have made her an indispensable member of the class.

Nature bestowed her gifts most lavishly on Margy: — the sureness and deftness with which she expressed her- self in Art; the power to evoke fascinating melodies from the piano in an easy, effortless manner; the command of clear-cut, incisive English, — all these revealed the indelible mark of her unusual individual- ity.

We all have noticed how a classroom is brightened by her mere presence, and how much fuller our school day is if Marion is there to flavor each daily occurrence with her indi- vidual brand of humor. Yet those who know her well are aware that she has serious thoughtfulness that elevates her far above the merely frivolous.

Her histrionic ability, her high scholastic stand- ing, her sudden disarming smile, and her winsome friendliness have gained for Eleanor the admiration of her classmates, and the abiding love of her inti- mate friends.

Fran is one member of the class who faces each day with a fearless mind, ready to meet every chal- lenge with the courage born of confidence in her own powers. A casual and nonchalant manner, a keen intellect, and a marvelous skill with the brush are undoubtedly hers. We shall always remember her humor; she has the most fascinating way of uttering absurd statements in an off-hand manner, and then the next moment uttering a quip which for polish and point could not be equalled by many so-called wits. Yet the trait which is most outstanding in Fran is her hatred of sham in any form, and her friends are proud to think that she has chosen them for their frankness and honesty.

Flashing black eyes indicate a lively nature. An ever- ready smile reveals an optimistic, kindly spirit. Joy and friendliness have been the portion of those who have had the pleasure of knowing Edie.

But if to these attainments you add sober judgment when dignity demands, gaiety when frivolity reigns, capacity to do worth-while things quietly, an unexcelled sense of fitness in widely different situations, and an unruffled demeanor — you simply increase our admiration and appreciation of Anne. Unaffected, tolerant, efficient, Anne per- sonifies college life at its best. Those who see her casually are drawn to her, and those who know her best honor her for her qualities of mind and heart.

Eighty-two FACT AND FANCY — 1962 — SCENE I In the President ' s office of The Great American Steel Corporation a woman, smartly dressed, sat at a desk. Her trim apearance and quick movements denoted the efficient business executive. All her problems for that day were settled, thank goodness! But there was still the late afternoon mail. Why, here was a letter with a Florida postmark! From Dot, of course! Business was forgotten. How quickly time had passed, and what changes had come in their lives! She, Katherine K — , president of an important corporation, and Dot D — , a society woman of leisure! As she picked up the letter, her mind went back to the summer day when she received the letter notifying her of her admis- sion to Teachers College. What happiness and joy! How vividly that first year comes to my mind! she mused. I remember so clearly how eager and enthusiastic we were to get into the gay routine of col- lege life. That first assembly, our meeting with our Junior sisters, and Fresh- man Week! How we enjoyed ourselves! Escorted to the Acquaintance Party and introduced to the faculty by our Juniors, entertained by the Sophomores, and made to feel welcome by all the upperclassmen! The green and gold badges which we wore during that week made us feel important rather than conspicu- ous. Finally the gala party given us by the Juniors, where, dressed as babies, we were made to romp and frolic! Shall we ever forget the Judge, with his large glasses and stern tones, who courtmartialed those of us who had refused to do tasks assigned us? Soon we were swept into the more serious side of college life. Education Week! How proud we were of our speaker! Studies! Waiting at the library for Hayes and Moon, struggling with Health Education and short stories! Our mid- semester examinations! But thoughts of these faded with the coming of our first Self-Government Dance. What a grand time we had on that cold winter night of snow and sleet! Christmas! The party for the faculty children, where we Freshmen had charge of decorations, and what an artistic piece of work we did! The Christ- mas Assembly, the Carols, the play, and the marvelous vision in the windows above the Assembly Hall — one of the most beautiful things I had ever seen. Then came our mid-years, closely followed by that fateful day, awaited with fear and trembling, when we received our report cards. However, we passed this barrier happily and turned our attention to our class activities under the leadership of our class officers, Katherine Mealey, Catherine Gilligan, Carolyn Dacey, and Bertha Bayard, an enthusiastic group. What fun we had at our snow party at Cedar Hill, romping in the deep snow, skiing, and tobogganing! And the pictures we took! What memories they bring back! We returned the kindness of the upperclassmen by entertaining them, every member of the class co-operating wholeheartedly. Self-Government Week! Each Class President spoke on an ideal of Self- Government, and as in Education Week we invited our parents to meet our teachers and classmates and to see our college. How quickly the year passed! With May came our annual Gym Meet. What enthusiasm and spirit pervaded the college for this inter-class competition! How well I remember the cheering and Eleanor Noonan ' s victory song, which we sang so lustily. Star performers! And oh, the disappointment when we were beaten by the Juniors! But the crowning event of our Freshman year was the Freshman-Sophomore Dance after our final examinations in June. We were so proud because we were the first Freshmen allowed to have a dance with Sophomores, and we felt it to be a deserved mark of recognition. What a wonderful time we had at the Bel- mont Springs Country Club that evening! Shall we ever forget how it rained and thundered as if the elements were as excited as we were! And so our Fresh man year passed. What happy times we had! Kay murmured, as coming back to her desk and to the present, she opened her Florida letter, eager for news of Dot. Eighty-three SCENE II On the sands of DeLeon Beach, the fashionable Florida winter resort, a handsome middle-aged woman sat in a beach chair. Waving to her two stal- wart sons as they ran toward the water, she took up a book with a gayly-colored wrapper. The year ' s best seller, written by her classmate of T. C. ' 37, Grace W — . Yes, Grace was always good in English, she reflected, as her mind went back to happy college days. Why, she mused, I remember our Sophomore year as if it were yester- day! How we struggled to read Manly and understand it! And then that Biology course! Dissecting frogs and naming them Oscar or Hepzibah to make them pleasanter and a little less ugly! Yes, we entered our second year at college proud and confident of continued success. Led by our energetic class officers, Gertrude Ahearn, Mary Hutchin- son, Grace Whittaker, and Josephine Roche, we entertained the Freshmen as we had been entertained the year before. How well I remember the riotous enter- tainment and the way we belittled the poor Freshmen! Then came the activities of Education Week, the Christmas Assembly, and Self-Government Week. And weren ' t we proud of our class and our representatives! How we enjoyed the Supper and Bridge which we held tor our Lampas fund! Marie Michaels had charge, I remember, and entertained us with her lovely singing. I wonder how many of us still have the little green pencils given as a remembrance of the occasion. Did we play bridge, or was it Pig ? With June came the Sophomore-Freshman Dance at the Woodlawn Country Club. What a beautiful summer night it was, and how lovely all the girls looked in their dainty evening gowns! The golf links were very popular that evening. So was the moon! This ended our Sophomore year, and eagerly we looked for- ward to being Juniors. With a sigh she brought herself out of her reverie and began to read the book which had brought back such vivid memories. SCENE III Grace W — , author of the year ' s best seller, settled down on the divan in her suite in the Waldorf-Astoria. What a busy day she had had! Her unprece- dented success in the literary world meant interviews with publishers, endless dinners, persistent autograph hunters. How glad she was to be alone! As she picked up a copy of the Boston Transcript, featuring the story of her life, she saw the headlines, Catherine G — Elected First Woman Superintendent of Schools in Boston. How wonderful! As she read, her mind went back to col- lege days, when she and Catherine were classmates at Teachers College. Our Junior year was a happy one, she thought. Catherine and I were great chums, — full-fledged upperclassmen with Freshmen sisters to entertain and take care of. We were entering the second half of our college course and had chosen the fields in which we were to major. How well I remember our fine class officers: Elinor Cullen, Lucy Condon, Marie Michaels, and Rita Mulroy. Besides the usual college events, we had a week entirely devoted to the Juniors. Junior Week! The most important undergraduate event in college! Carolyn Dacey was general chairman and a very capable one, too. The fun began with a class banquet, at which each member of the class received a pen- dant as a remembrance. Speeches, toasts, and a class song all contributed to make the evening a memorable one. Then on Wednesday evening, the class attended the End of Summer starring Ina Claire. On Friday came our Junior Prom, that glamorous event in the life of an undergraduate. Who will forget the Grand March, and the fun in the Captain ' s Cabin on that unforgotten evening! Junior Week ended all too quickly, but we still have the memories. Next was our Gym Meet. How exciting it was that year, even if again our class was beaten by a few points! June with our final exams! This was one of two times in the year when every girl studied her hardest. Our last event as Juniors was a dance for the Lampas fund. What a happy year it was! As Grace recalled her college days, the telephone startled her from dreams of 1932 to reality of 1962. Eighty-four SCENE IV Catherine G — , the newly elected Superintendent of Schools in Boston, sat at her desk in the new Administration Building amid congratulatory letters and baskets of flowers. At last she was alone. She held three letters in her hand. Her smile showed how much they pleased her. They were from Kay, Dot, and Grace, her old classmates and chums at Teachers College. Yes, she thought, how well I remember our last year together. Our senior year was wonderful, yet there was a feeling of sadness to think that this was to be our last year as undergraduates. Some of us would return as graduates, it was true, but for others it was the final year of college. Also, half of the class were out in the schools teaching. This caused a separation, and we came together as a whole class only a few times before Commencement. Our first Senior activities were given for our Lampas fund. How we worked for their success! We held Teas, had sales of lucky elephants, and ran parties — all for dear old Lampas. With November came our Tea and Fashion Show at Filene ' s. Then we had our first chance to hear of the experiences of the girls who were out. In January we held an electrola dance in Collins Hall. Can we ever forget the balloons, the novelty dances, and the music! And our officers of that year! Eleanor Twomey, Lucy Condon, Marie Mi- chaels, and Bertha Bayard. A fine quartette! Soon came February and the beginning of my practice teaching. I well remember that first trembling day before the class and my nervous anticipation of visits. In March we had a Tea, at which we elected Class Marshals. How excited we were at this important occasion! At last came the Senior V a.y, Ladies of the Jury, which was so eagerly awaited by the College. Seniors and Graduates proved marvelous actors and actresses. Who will forget the romancing of Cynthia and Alonzo and Tony and Mayme! How quickly the year was passing! Our Senior Prom was held in April at the Parker House, — the gayest of dances, with the bright printed gowns of the girls and the high spirits of all the dancers. Soon we were rehearsing for Class Day, and the two halves came together again. In May, the Operetta, The Gondoliers, was given, and the College Spring Formal Dance followed. Too soon, yet awaited with eager anticipation, came Senior Week with its round of activities. How happy we felt to be nearing our goal, yet sad, too! We were entertained royally by our teachers at the Faculty Reception. On the next evening, Dean Linehan gave us our baccalaureate address. Well do I remember that solemn occasion, in academic robes. Class Day! The day of days! How lovely all the girls looked in their dainty gowns! How proud we were! And how beautiful was the formation of the Daisy Chain. That evening we had our dance in Collins Hall, which was all decorated for the festive occasion. Few were the corners one could seek out! Then came the Class Outing where once again we felt like Freshmen. The Class Banquet, so much our own get-together, when we received our Year- books. Our night at Pops and the Alumnae Banquet, which we all so enjoyed! Senior Week comes back so vividly as one of the happiest weeks in my life as a college girl. Commencement — what a conflict of emotions — happy, proud, sad! Our goal was reached! And the Class of 1937 had gained their degrees. Back in the present once more, the Superintendent of the Boston Schools put the three letters into her bag. With a far-away look in her eyes she mur- mured, Yes, the Class of 1937 was the Class of Classes! — Marie Maguire. Eighty-five OUTWARD BOUND We ' re outward bound over billowing seas! Oh, proudly our sails we unfurl to the breeze, And laying our course with the stars as a guide, We seek for new worlds, for lands strange and untried. Our cargo is precious, — of faith, hope, and truth So freely bestowed by the friends of our youth, Who shared their rich gifts in most bountiful measure, Who gave of their wisdom — the mind ' s golden treasure. Their trust is our beacon — a clear glowing light To lead us to knowledge, to duty, and right. We ' re outward bound under heaven ' s arched blue! We leave our loved haven; it fades from our view. Our hearts and our spirits are ardent and high, Our banners of courage — how gayly they fly! We carry to others the wealth that is ours, To share with the needy our God-given powers. The service of Youth is our heavenly trust, To live for a duty that ' s noble and just. May God bless our voyage, His love calm our fears; His wisdom will guide us through all the long years. Anne Weisthal. Eighty-six IVY ORATION We have built a house that is not for Time ' s throwing. Fair and shining we have reared our House of Life, not on the shifting sands of fancy and caprice, but on the solid rock of work and honest endeavor. Staunch and permanent it stands, well braced against the storms of Time and the winds of Chance. Mighty pillars uphold it, a support for its strength and beauty. Like the palace in Elizabeth Barrett Browning ' s poem, it rests on four beautiful columnar marbles. The first of these columns we have dedicated ' to knowledge. Our education has embraced the best in the fields of literature, science, and the arts. We have been carefully trained in special fields so that our professional work may be thorough. We are about to receive our Bachelor degrees; some of us will go on to acquire a Master ' s degree. The attainment of these scholastic honors does not mean that our education is finished or complete; it means rather that we have the strongest incentive to grow in strength and wisdom. Let us hope that our education has given us, not merely an interest in intellectual pursuits but a keen enjoyment in study, so that it may be said of us, as of Chaucer ' s Clerk of Oxenford, and gladly wolde he lerne and gladly teche. Next we have raised a lofty column of noble character and high ideals. The men and women who have had charge of our professional training have striven to give us strong moral courage to meet the difficulties of life, and faith that with the sword and shield of truth and honor we can conquer nobly. May the high ideals they have shown us ever continue to guide us, so that we may always follow the gleam! Not only have we intellectual and moral strength to uphold our House of Life, but a third pillar shining and splendid commemorates our love of the beautiful. Beauty lies all around us, have we but eyes to see. Life has loveli- ness to sell. The loveliness of nature, — a floating cloud, a fragrant rose, a singing bird, the thrill of music, a haunting melody, the challenge of art, the joy of books, — all these make life richer and finer. Lovingly and carefully have we erected the fourth column, — to friendship. The bonds of sympathy and understanding formed by the common interests and ideals of college life are firm and enduring. Though our pleasant daily companionship is now ending, the friendships we have formed will live and grow stronger and dearer with the lapse of time. This, then, is our House of Life, with its four noble columns of knowledge, character, appreciation of the beautiful, and friendship. We have built a house that is not for Time ' s throwing. On this, our Class Day, we have planted the ivy, the traditional symbol of closing college days. Long after we have left the halls of Teachers College, our ivy will continue to grow, a living memorial to the Class of 1937. Like the ivy may we, too, aspire ever upward to reach our ideals. Let us hope that we may broaden in wisdom and understanding, and that our lives may always be deep rooted in honor and integrity. The time has come when we must say a fond farewell to our classmates, with memories of all the happy days of the past, and faith and courage for the future. — Eleanor Grace Twomey. Eighty-seven CLASS ESSAY THE QUALITY OF GRACIOUSNESS When we consider the qualities that characterize both a great woman and a great lady, the paramount essential appears to be graciousness. Our beloved superintendent, the late Patrick T. Campbell, on the last occasion when he ad- dressed our class, urged the students to cultivate graciousness, the attribute he considered most necessary for the successful teacher. Graciousness may be viewed in two ways: as a superficial charm and as a fundamental virtue. Superficially, graciousness implies a pleasant manner, poise, ease in con- versation, and politeness and urbanity in the give and take of social life. These qualities smooth the path of their possessor and mark the difference between the well-bred and the ill-bred person. In his Life of Johnson, Boswell says, The difference between a well-bred and an ill-bred person is this: One immediately attracts your liking and the other your aversion. You love the one till you find reason to hate him; you hate the other till you find reason to love him. Often indeed an unfortunate demeanor detracts from an otherwise admirable personality and hides an individual ' s real worth. Amy Lowell ' s brusqueness and domineering manner led a critic to say, She is the kind of person whom you find yourself answering in a much louder tone of voice than is necessary. Graciousness is a powerful magnet; it attracts and never repels; it is a touchstone to the best treasures of life. But graciousness is more than outward charm. Dr. Campbell surely implied more by the term than mere exterior characteristics. He used the word gracious- ness in the deeper meaning of a fundamental virtue. The derivation of the word suggests this more profound meaning. Grace in its ultimate significance is per- haps the most beautiful word in our language, referring as it does to the free gift of God ' s love and favor to man. The gracious personality must therefore be characterized to some extent by God-like attributes of the spirit and the mind. The first of these gifts is a loving heart. This implies an affectionate regard for those with whom we come in contact, and a genuine unselfish interest in all our fellow men. Such an attitude can come only from a generous spirit, — a power to see beyond our own problems and to understand the needs of others. Always the loving person is the kind person. The Bible emphasizes the close union between love and kindness in the beautiful expression, loving-kindness. And Lowell pays tribute to loving-kindness in the lines, She doeth little kindnesses Which most leave undone or despise, And nought that sets one heart at ease Or giveth happiness or peace Is low esteemed in her eyes. Forgetfulness of self in the generous service of others, the noblest attribute of human nature, inspires not only the little kindnesses which make our daily living pleasanter, but has found its perfect expression in the lofty spiritual grandeur of a St. Francis of Assisi. The gracious person possesses not only the loving heart and the kindly spirit, but another God-given gift, sympathy, one of humanity ' s greatest needs. The sympathetic person rejoices with us in our happiness and grieves with us in our sorrow. Sympathy expresses itself in many ways: — the kindly handclasp, the gentle word, the helpful deed, the timely letter, the friendly assistance in diffi- Eighty-eight culty or trouble. Probably there is nothing which we so deeply regret as the op- portunity for kindness which we lost forever because of neglect or indifference. Sympathy has its part, too, in the God-like attribute of mercy, that virtue which far transcends justice. Love, kindness, and sympathy are qualities of the heart, but does not gra- ciousness imply also traits of the mind? Without intelligent understanding, kindly, well-intentioned interest can accomplish little. As Edward Rowland Sill says, These clumsy feet still in the mire Go crushing blossoms without end, These hard well-meaning hands we thrust Among the heart strings of a friend. Moreover, the person who looks deeply into the motives of others never makes harsh judgments. To know all is to forgive all. Breadth of view and sympathy make us tolerant, giving us the power to respect the capabilities and achievements of others. The tolerant person recognizes the truth of Emerson ' s philosophy, All are needed by each one, Nothing is fair or good alone. And so we may conceive of graciousness as a combination of outward charm and noble qualities of heart and mind. The value of a gracious personality is self-evident. The very nature of its attributes makes every one long to possess them. Happily, graciousness is not the prerogative of any particular class; nor is it denied to any class. People of leisure often devote much effort to acquiring social ease, but sometimes their charm lacks depth and genuineness. On the other hand the mother whose sweet, unselfish solicitude is merely an outward expres- sion of her loving nature and broad human understanding, is a truly gracious person. Of course, the surface manifestations of graciousness can be assumed, but the deeper qualities of mind and heart cannot be counterfeited. They are part of the fibres of one ' s being. We all have potentialities of graciousness. How much lovelier life would be if we would but foster and develop them! Particularly does the teacher need to develop graciousness. We often see uncomplimentary representations of the typical teacher as a person devoid of charm. Perhaps the great need of graciousness in our profession makes the lack of it conspicuous. The teacher is in constant association with many groups, — her pupils, her fellow-workers, the parents, and the community. The ability to adapt one ' s self to all these groups is proof of a gracious personality. Loving interest, sympathy, kindly helpfulness, intelligent understanding make the rela- tion between teacher and pupil pleasant and valuable to both. Lack of these qualities in a teacher may not only antagonize a pupil toward school, but ruin his entire life as well. Also, the teacher ' s relations with her confreres must be pleasant and co- operative if she is to be an effective member of her organization. The ideal school and the ideal community are characterized by mutual good feeling and trust. In brief, the quality of graciousness more than any other is the determining factor in the ultimate happiness and success of our lives, because both happiness and success depend upon our relations with other people. If, as in the old folk- tales, a fairy godmother would bestow a blessing on a child, let her leave at its cradle the magic gift of graciousness, a jewel beyond price. — Catherine Gilligan. Eighty-nine We come, thy children, on this day, To bid a fond farewell to thee, With treasured mem ' ries of the past And hopeful dreams of days to be. We ' ll cherish in the future years The friendships of our happy youth, Thy golden gift of wisdom shared, Thy high ideals of faith and truth. A shining light thou lifted high To lead us on the path of right; Oh may it be our guiding star To keep thy honor fair and bright! We thank thee for thy tender care, For all the gracious wisdom taught, For constant faith and loving trust, And kindly deeds so nobly wrought. Oh, Alma Mater, wise and strong, With grateful hearts we sing thy praise, And pledge with loyal hearts and true To serve thee well through all our days. A shining light thou lifted high To lead us on the path of right; Oh may it be our guiding star To keep thy honor fair and bright! Words — Concetta C. Alibrandi Music — Helen Snaphy Ninety WE, the Class of 1937, being in our usual state of mind and therefore liable for anything, do hereby proclaim this our last Will and Testament. Court proceedings will be useless, as our composite I. Q. is adequate defense. A will, we realize should never jest, A funereal note is considered best. But as the Class of ' 37, Now draws near Alumnae Heaven, Just remember our years of fun and play, Forget that we soon must pass away, Let our parting be merry and full of jest. Listen well to our last request! And carry out each generous bequest! And now our greatest problem must be, Our gifts to the Dean and Dr. Kennedy. We could suggest, Dr. Kennedy, A door to your office with a stout key, To protect you from student imposition, And aid in preserving your kind disposition! On you, Dean Linehan, we might bestow, A phonograph record sweet and low, Which in Assembly would say, Ladies, please, And thus help you keep that well-known throat-ease. To Miss Sallaway, we bequeath a collection of brand-new excuses to be used as follows: So, you were late? How, why, and when? I ' ve heard that one, time and again! Please use this book of new ones you see, Compiled by the Senior Class for me! This collection is to be shared, on request, with Miss Barr. To Miss Midgley, a new Oral Expression exercise which we guarantee will be said with real feeling by any Freshman. I ' m stooped, and I droop, My back ' s in a loop, As I drag home all my books. Tardy rules are cruel, When you ' re late for school, Just blue slips and unkind looks! To the English Department: To the English department, a plea to be aisy, Lest your assignments drive us all crazy. Ninety-one To Miss Clark, her secret wish: The secret ' s out, and all is known, We ' re giving you your dream come true, In Collins Hall, by the Drama Club, An A-i production of Hamlet for you! To Miss Gaffey: You ' ve made costumes out of rags, Even dressed shepherds in burlap bags, Our wish is this, may it some day come true, A whole set of Drama Club costumes for you! To Mr. Shea: A year without a Christmas sale, Is the gift we have in view; Those charming cards we love to mail Mean so much work tor you. To Miss Trammer, Editor-in-Chief of the Newsletter. Burdened deep in correspondence, Note her air of sad despondence; Perhaps a mail-box in the room, Would bring her joy and banish gloom! To Mr. O ' Meara: To the chemistry Prof, a new volatile gas, That will raise up our marks and thus help us to pass. To the Health Education Department: To the Health Ed. Department a new Mr. Bones, The one that you have has just told us with groans, He ' s on his last leg, and can ' t stand any more, And fears every day that he ' ll fall on the floor. To Miss Dickson, a new and marvelous invention: Rushing, rushing, busy but gay, Classes, visits, all the day. Often such your hurry that You really can ' t remove your hat. Let ' s hope this hat-remover may, Ease you in the midst of a busy day! To Miss Driscoll: It must be specific, it can be terrific, It shouldn ' t be mystic, but should be statistic, What are your guesses? We ' ll give you two, It ' s a perfect geography class for you! To the History Department: To the History Department, a word of advice, — The incoming Freshmen are really quite nice, But their nerves will get jangled and all out of tune With a too-steady diet of dear Hayes and Moon. Ninety-two To Dr. Nash and Miss Shute: Welfare Club leaders, you try to supply Eyeglasses, milk, and new shoes. We give you the gift you really need, A student body that likes paying dues! To the rest of the faculty, we leave no bequest. We couldn ' t decide just what you ' d like best. So may we extend, from the Senior Class, Our heartiest thanks for letting us pass! To the Freshmen: And now to the long-suffering Freshies, we say, Be patient and wait, you ' ll be Juniors some day. And white-stockinged Freshies will act very meek, And carry your books during Baby Week! To the Sophs — the Freshies of yesterday: We give you our Senior sophistication, The proper response to syncopation. And all a Formal ' s fascination — Now, little Sophomore, don ' t you cry, For you ' ll be a Senior by and by. To the Juniors: You soon will be the Senior Class, Full of knowledge and lore, And as our heirs to you we pass Our booth in a nearby store. Our worldly gifts are now bestowed. As wisely as may be, We ' ve nothing left, but deepest love, For our college, dear T. C.

It is our most important student organization, and we realize that everyone must cooperate if it is to be efficient and enduring. The fundamental principle of Self-Government helps to develop the characters of our students by the spirit of cooperation and honor which it fosters. Each year, in order that the ideal of nobler living through character development may be s trongly emphasized, a day is set apart for this definite purpose. Speakers are chosen to represent each class in the Assembly program, and each speaker discusses some phase of the main theme. This year the subject was A Sense of Values, and the related topics included tolerance, adaptability, honor, humor, appreciation, and discretion. By this direct method the Association strives to give its members an increased knowledge of those virtues which should form the basis of their daily actions. The organization of the Student Council makes provision for Self-Govern- ment officers selected from the three upper classes, the presidents of the classes, a councillor from each section in the College, and two faculty advisers. Various committees are appointed by the Council to assume responsibility for the College Store, the Students ' Room, the Lunch-room, and the Lost and Found Depart- ment. Besides taking charge of the every-day affairs of our college, the Self- Government Association also manages many social activities during the year. Two formal dances, one in December and the other in May, are the chief social events of the year. Ninety-eight 1 v ■ © The exercises of Education Week, held in November, are conducted under the general supervision of the Self-Government Association, special attention being devoted to the Tea on Parents ' Day. The Tea is a custom fostered by the Association to bring about a pleasant understanding between the home and the college, an understanding which is of great benefit to the students. The Christmas Party for the children of faculty members is also directed by the Association. In April the anniversary of Self-Government is observed by an assembly in which the representatives of each class speak on a subject chosen at the annual February vacation luncheon of the x ssociation. Our choice of officers has always proved most happy and satisfactory. In our president of 1936-1937, Catherine Gilligan, we have had a conscientious and able chairman who led Self-Government forward to greater achievements. Assisted by her fellow officers and the faculty advisers, she has added another successful year to the history of Self-Government. Ninety-nine Ti n n rs T TsTS Eleanor McManus Caroline Ober .

Education for service; service President First Vice-President Second Vice-President Third Vice-President Secretary Treasurer Faculty Advisers for education The Welfare Club, as its name implies, exists to further the well-being and happiness of those in need of a helping hand. Its special interest is the service of little children. The Club includes in its membership every student as well as every faculty member. Since the entire college cannot be present at the semi- monthly meetings, each section appoints an Aide to represent it. Under the guidance of the club officers, the faculty advisers, the group leaders, and the club aides, numerous phases of welfare work are carried on. The various needs of the Club are advertised by posters made by the students. A milk-fund drive, held early in the year, made it possible for the Club to supply milk daily to many under-nourished children in the Boston schools. Other children were provided with eye-glasses, and with shoes, sweaters, coats, and various articles of clothing. At Thanksgiving needy families, who would otherwise have had no holiday dinner, were sent turkeys and all the fixings. Students deem it a privilege and a profitable experience to spend a few hours a week directing activities at the various settlement houses, or tutoring pupils in need of special help in their school-work. Toys, provided by the Welfare Club, and by the children of faculty members, brought holiday cheer at Christmas time to little ones in the City Hospital and the settlement houses. Contributions of money are sent annually to such charities as the Floating Hospital, the Com- munity Health Association, and the Community Fund. Whatever and wherever the need, the Welfare Club tries to be of service. f% - Cs HELEN WIGGINS HENRIETTA 5TATHACOPOUL05 RITA GLEAVY pmsimki vic E .

As the final activity of the year, there is an exhibition of the work done in the special art classes. One hundred six ATHLETIC ASSOCIATION Rita Donnelly . Marie E. Maguire Winifred Peatfield Rita Campbell . Ruth Gordon Miss Donovan, Miss Quinlan . President First Vice-President Second Vice-President Secretary . Treasurer Faculty Advisers A game for every girl, a girl for every game. The Athletic Association has been one of our most enthusiastic clubs during the past four years. It boasts of a large membership, but more than that, it fosters and strengthens friendships founded on a love of sport and the out-of- doors. At our Athletic Association meetings we play basketball, captainball, and squash baseball. At the end of each season, inter-class games are held in these sports, each student being eager to defend the honor of her class. The class of ' 37 has always played hard and well. As Freshmen, we were runners-up for the inter-class title in basketball, and as upper classmen we have always been near the top. The chief event of the year is our Annual Game Meet. At this time cheers and songs are composed, enthusiasm is at a high peak, and each class does its best to win. As Freshmen, we were beaten by our Junior sisters by a mere two points. For outside activities we participate in bowling, hiking, ice-skating, tennis, bicycling, and swimming. We have been on many enjoyable hikes to Houghton ' s Pond and Cedar Hill. We shall never forget the glorious skating and tobogganing at Cedar Hill nor the friendly warmth of the fire as we gathered around it, singing and toasting frankforts. What fun we had! Our final meeting for 1937 was in the form of a party. Here we forsook our strenuous sports and indulged in social life, entertained by the talent of our own members. At this time, we handed down to our under-classmen, the interest and enthusiasm we have had during the past four years. W 7 e have enjoyed our sports, made many new friends, but above all, we have learned what the Athletic Association stands for — Good Sportsmanship. One hundred seven Anna Larkin Katherine Laurano Helen Holmes Katherine Frizone Dr. Kerrigan President Vice-President Secretary Treasurer Faculty Adviser The Aquarium Club seeks each year to increase the interest in balanced aquaria; therefore, it opens its membership to all students in the college, not restricting it to science majors and minors. Club members endeavor to further the interest in and increase the knowledge of aquaria, not only among their fellow club-members, but particularly among teachers in the Boston schools. The Club urges active participation in its activities on the part of all the members, and for this reason contributions of terraria and aquaria to the Spring Flower Show are the composite work of the members. Aquarium Club members not only care for aquaria in the College, but they also set up terraria and aquaria which they sell. The demonstrations on correct set-ups given by the girls to classes in the Elementary and Junior High schools are excellent for their value as teaching experience. With Dr. Kerrigan as its fac- ulty adviser, the Club has the advantage of her research and experience with aquaria. Out of its revenue each year the Club contributes to the Lillian J. MacRae Memorial Library Fund. One hundred eight Claire Burton . Marguerite Grey Yvonne Habert . Ida Sullivan Miss Ammidown . President Vice-President Secretary Treasurer Faculty Adviser xAs far as age is concerned, the Biology Society is still a toddling infant. A study of its achievements, however, leads to the conclusion that this club must be an infant prodigy. Founded in 1934 under the able direction of Miss Ammi- down, the Biology Society immediately proved itself a social and financial suc- cess. Its members, Biology teachers in service, major and minor student groups, as well as certain recommended sophomores, gather in Room 32 on the last Tues- day of each month to enjoy illustrated lectures given by prominent guests, in- formal talks by fellow membeis, 01 friendly discussions of field-trip plans. Good fellowship and cooperation are characteristic of the Biology Society. These attributes are shown to great advantage each December at the annual Christmas sale, the big event of the Biology Society ' s year. Luscious chocolate cake, steam- ing hot tea, snowy white covers, gleaming urns, tall beautifully-scented narcissi, delicately-perfumed sachets, cheery green plants in gayly-colored pots, — even gingham animals are displayed by the smiling busy helpers. The major part of the proceeds from this sale is devoted to college activities, including the Science Library and the College Fund. The standards set for social and financial achieve- ments in that first year of its founding have been maintained, for the Biology Society continues to prove that Nothing succeeds like success.

This year the Classical Club entered upon its twelfth year of existence with the hope and ambition of continuing to fulfil its principal aim and purpose, — to promote good fellowship between college students and teachers in service. The Alumnae, as well as the girls in college, are regular, active members attending and taking part in the meetings; and every class since 1924, when the Club was first organized, is represented in the Club membership. The program of the Classical Club included this year a trip to the Art Mu- seum, where we became better acquainted with Greek and Roman Art, a lecture by Miss Finn on her interesting trip to Rome, one by Mr. Granfield on Greek and Roman architecture, and other varied and entertaining meetings. In addi- tion were two events which have become traditional with the Classical Club, — namely, the impressive liturgical play celebrating the coming of the Magi, pre- sented each yeai at Christmas time, and the annual banquet, the climax of Our year, which proved once more the value of the Classics as a bond of fel- lowship. One hundred ten Carolyn F. Dacey Frances A. Quinn Marie E. Maguire Elizabeth Doherty Miss Regan, Mr. Bitzer President Vice-President Secretary Treasurer Faculty Advisers The purpose of the Commercial Club is to give extra-curricular information to its members and to provide pleasant social relations among the commercial students. In its second year, the Commercial Club has increased its membership and widened its activities. There have been talks by college teachers of secretarial subjects and by business office workers, as well as research reports given by club members. This year we stressed, as our main subject, the history of shorthand. Our graduate students gave us very interesting talks on this theme. Graduates, now teaching, also gave us enlightening accounts of their teaching experience. For our social activity we had an interesting travel talk, shorthand games led by members of the club, singing, and plays. A new feature, inaugurated this year, was the appointment of chairmen who aided the officers in planning the meetings: Social Chairman, Katherine Kelly; Educational Chairman, Josephine Martin; and Rules Chairmen, Rita LeRoy and Margaret Kelley. A Group Skill Contest, in which members of the three classes competed, excited a keen spirit of rivalry among the girls for the improvement of their secretarial skills. We feel that the Commercial Club has made real progress this second year, because of the steady attendance of the members, and their cheerful cooperation in furthering the plans of the executive board of students and faculty advisers. One hundred eleven Marie Fortunati Eleanor Noonan Marie Barry Dorothy Thain . Mary Hernon President First Vice-President Second Vice-President Secretary Treasurer The Drama Club of the Teachers College was formed with many aims. Its organization meant bringing together girls whose bond was an eager interest in the drama. The members are taught the technicalities of drama, which will be useful to them in coaching and presenting plays in their future work. Also, the Club fosters the love of the best dramatic art. With the club motto: The Play ' s the Thing vividly in mind, we begin our year ' s activities with the Har- vest Festival. This is a gay, informal party which gives the entire college a good time and also introduces the Club for those interested in becoming members. Our second production is the Christmas Play, which is presented at the special Christmas Assembly. This is always remembered for its beauty and spiritual dignity. Each alternate year comes the major production, usually a Shakes- pearean or an old English play. Last year, however, an experiment was made. A tournament of plays between the classes was held, and the audience voted on the play it liked best. x .n award was given to the girls in the play which won the tournament. This innovation proved a great success. This year in order to give as many students as possible an opportunity to have experience in acting or producing, a play is given every month at the regular meeting. At our February meeting, we have a Valentine party, to which the entire college is invited. This year we are planning to have a dinner to conclude our year ' s pro- gramme. In addition to these regular activities, theatre parties are organized whenever there is a worth-while production to be seen. One hundred twelve ENGLISH CLUB Gertrude Ahearn CONCETTA AlIBRANDI . Florence Thompson . Katherine Godfrey . Mrs. Guilford, Miss Brennan President Vice-President Secretary Treasurer Faculty Advisers The English Club unites those students who share a love of literature. The formal atmosphere of the classroom is exchanged for a pleasant social group where friendships are strengthened and self-expression encouraged. Here the prospective writer has ample opportunity to exercise her literary talents or to talk about her favorite author. Although active participation is the aim of this group, many students come to listen and to glean interesting suggestions for reading. The appeal of the English Club to the college at large is evidenced by the number of active members who find a constant source of enjoyment in friendly companionship and common literary interests. One hundred thirteen Anne Flinn Anna Cussen Ann McCarthy Mary Kenney Miss Driscoll President Pice-President Secretary Treasurer Faculty Adviser The Geography Club takes its members not only to places of world-wide fame, but also to regions usually unknown to the every-day person. The travel- ogues given by members of the faculty and other guest speakers, are often accompanied by moving pictures, which make them more vividly interesting. For example, at our first meeting this year, an alumna, Mrs. Nathaniel J. Young, gave a very interesting talk on her tour to Mexico City. Technicolor pictures showed the beauty of Mexico ' s scenery and many of its historic and artistic land- marks. A Mexican costume, bright colored baskets, Mexican coins and sou- venirs added realism to the lecture. The meetings are not, however, confined to vicarious travel. Some meetings each year are devoted to the discussion of current events. Also, we are forming a book club which not only promises to be a source of enjoyment, but will widen our field of knowledge. At the meetings set aside for the Book Club the members give book reviews; thus each one will have an opportunity to participate in the club activities. In this way, the Geography Club hopes to fulfil its aims, — to provided recreation, promote good fellowship, and create a greater interest in the world about us. One hundred fourteen Margaret M. Callahan Doris Flinn Charlotte Fellman Elizabeth Guell Miss Hubbard President Vice-President Secretary Treasurer Faculty Adviser The primary purpose of the History Club is to instil into the minds of all members a vital interest in world progress. The Club aims to develop an appre- ciation of the struggles and triumphs of heroic men of past and present, and an understanding of world affairs from an international point of view. To accom- plish this, open-forum discussions of current events play a prominent part in the club program. The club strives to keep up with the rapid march of events in world history and to discuss these incidents intelligently in order to foster an understanding of their significance. Visiting speakers present original views on current topics, such as The Ethiopian Crisis in 1936 and The Social Significance of Security in 1937. Our own girls frequently present reports on historical novels or essays on impor- tant events. For fun-loving members we have games revolving around historical characters, charades, and farcical pantomimes. These activities are intended to socialize membership and to promote a spirit of friendliness and mutual in- terest. As a fitting climax to the club calendar, a historical tour to some historic site near Boston is plan ned. With that, our club year will end, having, suc- cessfully we hope, fulfilled its aims of social stimulation and historical study. One hundred fifteen LE CERCLE FRANCAIS Rose Perez Sara Sugarberg . Elizabeth Cunningham Adeline Dell ' Aria Miss Gartland . President Vice-President Secretary Treasurer Faculty Adviser Le Cercle Francais est un club de celles qui etudient le francais, et qui veulent avoir l ' occasion de le parler souvent. Le cercle a le double but de donner aux membres l ' occasion de parler souvent francais et de les mettre au courant de la vie et de la civilisation francaise par la representation de petites pieces, par des causeries, des recits de voyages, des jeux, et des disques de musique francaise. Pour terminer le programme de l ' annee, les members du cercle ecoutent la musique francaise a Symphony Hall. Tous les deux ans, le Cercle Francais donne une representation dramatique pour les eleves des ecoles superieures de Boston. L ' annee passee nous avons joue Poil de Carotte, comedie en un acte de Jules Renard. One hundred sixteen MATHEMATICS SOCIETY Bernice O ' Donoghue . Edna Connors Ruth Schifferdecker Shirley Abelow . Mr. Vosburgh President Vice-President Secretary Treasurer Faculty Adviser The Mathematics Society has a three-fold aim: (i) to promote a spirit of friendship among those graduates and under-graduates of the Teachers College who have a special interest in mathematics; (2) to bring to undergraduates a knowledge of real experiences in the teaching of the subject by those already in the profession; and (3) to further the cause of the teaching of mathematics in the Boston schools. This three-fold aim is well carried out in the varied program of the society. At some meetings we are addressed by visiting speakers — prominent mathemati- cians from neighboring schools and colleges. These people give very interesting talks on their special phase of the subject, and afford us an opportunity to learn something about such topics as relativity, ancient mathematics, and unusual aspects of algebra and arithmetic. At other times the program is provided by our own members, and we hear, perhaps, from the graduates of previous years, who give reviews of their theses. Again some under-graduates present short plays based on their courses here. Lest we give the impression that this society is a very serious one, let us add that at the end of the year we have a very gay banquet at which all join in the fun, — faculty members, teachers-in-service, and under-graduates. One hundred seventeen Marie Michaels Marjorie McDonnell Rut h Heerde Josephine Snaphy Miss Brick President Vice-President Secretary Treasurer Faculty Adviser The Music Group of the Cooperative Arts Course, one of the largest club in the school, is chosen from the entire college. It affords an opportunity for the members to practice choral and solo singing, and its meetings are welcomed as a splendid addition to the college activities. This year meetings were held on Wednesday of each week, under the direction of Miss Brick, and were devoted to rehearsing the many and varied programs to be presented during the year. The Club provides incidental music on occasions such as Education Week, Par- ents ' Day, the Christmas Assembly, Self-Government Day, Graduation, and at the meetings of other organizations in the college. In the Music Assembly pro- gram the members present a project based upon works of a certain composer, or worthwhile poems which have been set to music. Thus many members are given an opportunity to perform, as conductor, pianist, or vocalist. Each alternate year the Club presents an operetta, and this year The Gon- doliers by Gilbert and Sullivan was chosen, because it gives opportunity to a large cast. Throughout the year, the Club has successfully proved that it is an organ- ization valuable to the college, and it has lived up to its usual high standards. One hundred eighteen Louise McLeod Caroline Ober Rita M. Kelley Helen Wusteney Mr. Quinn . President Vice-President Secretary Treasurer Faculty Adviser Those of us who are fascinated by the most recent developments in atom- smashing, radio-activity, astronomy, physics, and other branches of pure and applied science may satisfy our scientific interests at the Science Club. Under the helpful guidance of Mr. Quinn, the Club aims to unite in its membership, those girls majoring in science, or studying its astOLinding advances merely as an intellectual interest. Stimulating lectures have been given by speakers who have an intimate connection with some phase of science applied to industry, crime detection, radio, or public facilities. One of the most interesting talks was given by a lieutenant of the State Police, who described the two-way radio system now functioning so efficiently in his department. A motion picture from the General Electric Company instructed us in the scientific principles and in- tricate mechanisms which unfailingly supply ice-cubes on every demand. The Science Club, as in the past, will undoubtedly continue in the future to impress on its members the tremendous significance of the application of science to industiy. This will be accomplished by affording the girls an opportunity to visit large manufacturing plants and observe the processes in actual operation. The Science Club, through its activities, aims to keep informed of some of the countless phases of modern science in its progress to a more efficient civilization. One hundred nineteen 5T Violins .

Mr. Grant Drake In the String Ensemble, we have a group of gills who enjoy the production of good music and also bring enjoyment to others. They give practical expres- sion to our college motto, Education for Service, for they serve their college through the musical education they have received. Although the String Ensemble is a comparatively new organization, having been formed in the fall of 1935, the students depend on this talented group to supply incidental music at our college teas and special assemblies. It has be- come so popular that it is called upon by members of our faculty to play at affairs outside the regular college curriculum. We of the college especially thank the members of the String Ensemble and their adviser, Mr. Drake, because theirs is a voluntary service generously given without thought of the time and effort it demands.

As the years have flown by with their toil and their joy, Thou hast quickened our ears, thou hast opened our eyes, Till the hill and the plain, till the seas and the skies, Are all throbbing with beauty no hand can destroy. Thou hast shown us the world with its splendor and might, Its desire and its need thou has given us to see; Mother, grant us thy passion for service that we May lead youth with its ardor to seek for the light.
