Christmas dances and open hous- es that insisted upon the good old Christmas spirit; choir trips and the beginning of a basketball sea- son of exciting games and special victories; settling down to the challenge of exams ahead and realizing anew the values of living which December brings more sharply into focus. t l _I iVI Vj for two weeks vacation and a rich abundance of relatives, friends, sleeping late and looking forward to the coming of another year.

Organizations It is difficult to catch the full meaning and value of a college year among the pages of an an- nual. There is so much that cannot be caught by the camera ' s eye, so much that cannot be adequately expressed in writing. The college year does not mean the same things to each of us, nor do each of us treasure the same feeling for the events and experiences we have shared. You have that feeling of heart and mind which is for you the richness and the value of your year at Centenary. May this copy of the annual help you to look back and to remember ... «•■■ % .Mt z ! ' .. ' ?v«« iiitefe ' S a . - fl Eighteen THE COLLEGE Joe J. Mickle THE PRESIDENT Tiventy CT- „ HE MONTHS and years immediately ahead undoubtedly will call for great sacrifices by the American people. The degree to which we meet these sacrifices and the spirit in which we make them will measure the value of our civilization. The years ahead will determine whether the people with the world ' s highest living standards have become so enamou red of material things that they place these above the great political and spiritual ideals upon which this nation was founded. On a tombstone in a New England graveyard these words are carved: My Son, that which thy fathers have bequeathed to thee thou must win anew. To perceive the task of America clearly, to undergo material sacrifices gladly, and to maintain a con- stant and unwavering faith in the ultimate triumph of our highest spiritual axid political ideals is the special responsibility of those who have been privileged to receive a college education.

Fifty-eight THE FEATURES NOVEMBER and DECEi IBER Fifty-nine Aliss Alary Jo Curvin Sixty Miss Mary Jo Curvin was named Miss Centen- ary of 1951 by orchestra leader Sammy Kaye. Miss Curvin ' s photograph was chosen over fifteen other beauty nominations. Her picture was espe- cially chosen for her attractive smile. The present Miss Centenary came to Centenary after a semester ' s work at Louisiana State Uni- versity and is now a sophomore and member of Chi Omega sorority. Buddy Fergerson, business manager of the Yoncopin, presented Miss Curvin with a plaque in chapel consisting of her winning photograph and new title. She is a charming person, friendly, cheerful and well liked by the student body. Sammy Kaye, nationally known orchestra leader selected Miss Centenary and other Yoncopin beauties this year. Last fall, dur- ing the intermission of his performance at the Municipal Auditorium, he judged the sixteen photographs. He regretted having only faces to judge but looked for such qualities as naturalness, freshness, and warmth. tVk Um V)eniena M 95 Sixty-one Aliss Lady Maude Huckabay Sixty-two Miss Paul Martin Sixty-three Miss Marianne Allday Miss Ann Dillon Sixty-four Miss Joan Airey Senior Favorite Sixty-six Air.

Left In Chicago CENTENARY PLAYHOUSE The Centenary Playhouse production of Robinson letters ' adaptation of Euripides ' Medea which premiered on campus last December was a terrifying excursion into high trage- dy, a most unusual experience in the theater. The story related the tragic life of Medea who sought re- venge on Jason, her lost lover by killing her own two children. Por- trayed by a cast of talented young actors, these tragic events never lost their heavy dramatic mood. Isa May Cohen as Medea ' ast watches as John Cox, Jason, threatens Isa May Cohen, Medea. DRAMATIC WORKSHOP As the decaying Medea, one of the hard- est and most exhausting roles on the stage, Isa May Cohen turned in a grand perform- ance. The capable director, Mr. Joseph Gifford, chose three excellent supporting characters. John Cox gave a powerful performance as Medea ' s husband; Mary Bozeman was superb as her nurse; and Robert Edmond made an impressive Greek ruler. Other players were Ralph Lynch, Aubrey Foreman, Peggy Henning, John- ette Berry, Joye Holley, Richard Edwards, Conrad Edwards, Donna Erickson, Nancy Morse, Jerry Bloomer, Arthur Dickerson, Bobby Hyde, and Jack Twombly.

Howe, who since 1946 has been housemother at Colonial Hall. To say house-mother at Colonial Hall does not tell all the story of Mrs. Howe ' s place in the hearts of those who knew her here. This place of last- ing affection in our hearts was not won only by her unfailing loyalty with which she performed her duties as Mother to many boys. It was not won only by all of those extra services which she cheerfully performed for them and for the school. Her memory and influence will live with us be- cause of the guality of life — the spiritual radiance and beauty of charac- ter which she exemplified. Hers was a task never completed. One which included everything from the menial work of sewing on buttons to counseling in personal problems. So faithfully did she apply herself to this task that she even knew her boys individually by the sound of their footsteps in the halls and on the stairs. We who have been saddened by her parting find comfort in the assur- ance that He who listens down the halls of life for familiar footsteps to ascend the stairs of eternity has said to her — Well done thou good and faithful Servant. Enter thou into the joys of thy Lord. Out ' Hundred Vijty-foiir Your Yoncopin Portraits were made by 1 409 Fairfield Ave. Shreveport 15, La.
