COMMENCEMENT The clock has struck for the last time. We are a part of the procession, as others have been, as others will be. But even here our Senior year was different. Miss MacBride has been chosen Bryn Mawr ' s fourth president. But, most of all, we graduated ! Who Wears the Gown in Tour Family? Academic Overture

GARDEN PARTY The strife is o ' er; the battle won. The week before Commencement begun. We fold our hands, we watch underclassmen still studying, we play, we laugh again. We are very mature and poised at Garden Party — we have lost forever the awkwardness of blue -jeans. And the underclassmen feed us water-ice, and we smile.

Experimental PARK FOCUS THE fever for exploration runs high in the Archeology department. So, for some ' thing new and exciting, and for the satisfaction of six of our in- door Archaeology students, Miss De Laguna conducted a dig near Flagstaff, Arizona, last summer- Excavations at Cinder Park un. covered remains of a civilization of the Sinagua Indian tribe which disappeared about 1300 A. D. This, the oldest civilization of the Sinagua tribe that has been found, was named in honor of President Park. They had to dig under a very hot sun in hard, baked earth. At their first site, they dug six feet below the surface with shovels, then took trowels, whisk brooms, ice picks and paint brushes and culled over the earth m six-inch layers. Artifax were carefully wrapped in layers of newspaper. The valuable finds brought back were pottery, stone axes, corn grinders, shell ornaments and a pipe, but most of their discoveries remain in the Museum of Northern Arizona. CATHERINE HEAD COLEMAN
