THE CI-IATHAMITE SENIOR CLASS WILL E, the Class of '38, shaking the foundations of Pruden with one last shout, do hereby recklessly scatter these, our favorite possessions, among our heirs and bene- factors of Chatham Hall in the solemn hope that they may return from a picnic in time to receive them. Caroline, with pointed pointlessness, gives up her Hollywood secrecy, and surrenders her dark glasses to Spencer just to help that sophistication along. Joanie Morgan, late as usual, dashes into the dining room and disturbs even Clifton's equilibrium by flinging six hundred and fifty copies of Blood on the Saddle to all those who have unsuccessfully tried to sing it without words. Sarah Choate glides in mysteriously to bestow her slinky walk on Joanie Reid, and then clumps away, disconsolate. Deering, in her last and longest special report, leaves her perseverance and ambition to Frannie Hathaway, who pulls out all her eyelashes at once from the shock. Eyes shining like stars, Freddie dazzles all for the last time, and gives her blond tresses to hard-working Frannie Cauchois. Eedee Porter steams triumphantly through her last locomotive, and hands over her cheer leading to Betsy Evans. Give 'em the ax, Betsy. In true mouse-like fashion, Claire relinquishes large, red Edward P. Bear as a per- manent mascot for the Purple Team. Dena leaves the school-thereby providing Mrs. Felts with an extra five pounds of butter per day. jeff reluctantly resigns her views on life to Einstein and Schatzi Bulkley. Take it or leave it, Albert! Frannie leaves her bird's-eye view of Coalville to the Pittsburghers, hoping that it, along with her Senior Essay, may further illuminate them. Emily Griffin, resolving hereafter to communicate only by telegram, casually abandons her well-modulated tones to Miss Morris. Maybe we'll be able to hear you now, Charlie! Dolly comes trilling down from her high C to bequeath her natural curls to Betsy Harris. Thrilled, Betsy! Stevie, the most wicked of glints in her cruel eyes, decides she's tired of being typed, and leaves her spidery villainy to Miss Hadaway for intimidating future German pupils. Ginger smiles winningly before the battery of cameras. With a defiant toss of her head, she then intrusts her sweeping eyelashes to Dr. Lee to complement his eloquent eyebrows. 33 1938. THE CHATHAMITE. Woozy hates to leave her roommate anything, but maybe Anne can do with those knees a little farther apart! Sally Sn wden, for once wearied with rambling, concisely hands over her arguments to Farley. What a relief for the Sharecroppers! Maggie, lwirling her permanent in corkscrews and tight little knots, contributes her lily-white handls to the Miss Chatham Halls of the future. Alice, cocking her head pertly to one side, enthusiastically presents her coy pouts to the blase junior Class. There are quite enough to go around. Belle, with her voice faltering ever so slightly, sacrifices her self-portraits to Bunny Mallory in hopes that they will be too much for the madonnas. Molly gallops away, pausing only long enough to yield her stealthy sleep-walking to Mr. Duncan. 'Now he can kill two birds with one stone. Bobbie lflrown is blasted into surprised hysteria as Emil-Clem, with a benign sweep of her arms, flings that well-known savoir faire in her direction. Stew, with sweet domesticity, leaves her fragrant flowers to Ferdinand. Hopey, blefore going strenuously into her dance, delivers fwith Christmas wrappings, please, her res :rained coiffure to Sue Allen. l Tuna, recllining at ease, arches a languid eyebrow, and tosses her boundless energy to Alice Stimson, who catches it on the run. l Evie giv is a preliminary shudder, wrinkles up her nose, and hurls her boisterous sneeze at Hele, Montgomery, who is completely overcome by its sheer velocity. Flo grandiloquently wills her abundant locks to Pruden's shining dome and adds with subtle humor, 'll could grow hair on a billiard ball. Pandemonium. ,lust to kdep it in the family, Fergie, with one last leap, leaves her famous jeeping to Jeff. With pigbon-toes it would be perfect! Pat tangcts backwards down hall and confides to Huffard that she has bestowed upon her a large kegg of dynamite to liven the already oppressive silence of Pruden. Julie, nodchalantly stepping through her arms, bumps into Helen Wolcott and impul- sively presents her with her torrid hula. It may take a little time, Helen! Sprago, fbund nervously humming, I could say bella bella, merely looks statuesque for a moment, and then gives her warbling voice to Child Hagner. As one rlaommate to another, Oie leaves her coolness to Judy, in the effort to make her influence last for another year. Herron, rushing out in her slip, pained, shocked, surprised, and at the same time deeply grieved,lsays, I leave you Sweetums--forever, I hope, and dashes back again. Dorry rel pses into secretive silence as, with a final frllip, she ties up a neat white pack- age labeled t be taken in small doses by the history classes to come. Handle with care -it's her precibus eloquence. 34 . 1938 . THE CHATHAMITE Alice Jaques, a frenzied film fan, even goes so far as to surrender her dimples to Dr. Pruden's portrait, suffering from the illusion that he might look like Shirley Temple. Hollister yawns sleepily and at 3 a. m. abandons her grand-slam hand to Marcia Williams, who, we hope, won't trump her partner's ace. Marie, with the broadest of Ipana smiles, charitably gives her sturdy teeth to Marion Lowry, who will now go to Danville for jawbreakers, not dentists. Overcome with sisterly affection, Peggy Ward blesses the Dance Committee with the permanent present of her brother. You certainly wouldn't call him a blind. Fishie struggles to remove her feet from under the chair, sighs, and leaves her delicate pallor to Kelly Houk, who reciprocates by wasting away to a mere ton. Sheila, with a magnificent gesture, intrusts Bermuda to the Osborns, to be taken as, and when desired. Only just don't swallow it whole, Ozzies! Pollie pleads, Just clon't wear blotters in your shoes, girls, and leaves to Bunny Clapp her genius for carrying fainting Chathamites from church. Carol, dropping her queenly grace with a strident shout, violently thrusts her reserve upon unsuspecting Ann Reinicke who collapses. Bridget rises defiantly and faces her audience. flnoud laughter., But blushing a final purple, she announces, I leave to my successor a deficit of five cents-you can't have everything. Ginny, with a sigh of relief, bequeaths her musicianship to Roxanne, in hopes that Sara, Miss Nicholson, and the Tafatefes will get along better next year. With this weight off her shoulders, she is minus ten pounds. Mary Jane throws back her shoulders and takes a deep breath. Mary Buchanan, she hoarsely whispers, I decorate you with my military stance. Tar-ant-tar-ah! Bebe sighs softly and puclcers her brow, as she leaves her omnipresence to Anne Wood. Burbling maliciously, Ligget screws up her piquant face and bestows her helpless femininity on joannie Wyeth. Wheel Bunny Brundred, harassed again. ponderously transfers to Mary Morehead her mani- fold worries. What, no more of little Mary Sunshine? Cunny magnificently intrusts her Asheville connections to Judy Gray-now, she can drop her military friends. Lydia, in the midst of a lengthy tale, decides she couldn't bear to part with her laugh, but leaves its hollow echo to keep the painter's ghost company in his midnight wanderings in Pruden. With these our last bequests, which we hope will be fully andcompletely appreciated, we hereby mournfully depart from the exalted state of Seniorhood. 35 1938. TI-IE CI-IATI-IAMITE .

A torrent of fluid ,ced the feeble murmurs of the rabble around meg irresistibly attracted to its me under her wing and offered to show me all the sights gratis. I, not being ch a tempting offer, promptly acquiesced, and off we shoved. Climbin the Sure-Sight Tower, to get a peep at the general layout, I heard a strange- ly familiar c gh above us. Reaching the top I peered around. Yes! There was Mary Sprague, wh has just hooked, as you know, Sweden's most eligible Assorted Boxes King. Languidly e mining the Fair through a lorgnette, Sprague sighed, I tank I don't go home! I Dorrie thought that we should take the bitter before the sweet: the bitter taking the form of the cience Exhibition. Entering this palatial structure we were confronted by a poster, which read, Come one, come all, to the Lecture Room where Dr. Olivia Thorn- dike, Boy Sc ut leader, is clarifying the ultra-violet ray! Refrain ng from attending this illuminating lecture, we turned to the Research Depart- ment, where caught a glimpse of Bridget, busy cataloguing bacteria. She had just come across her ninety-eighth pair of twins, and was wondering whether to call them O and .rl-lion or .4 patiently, cha In the was the Ho Also among t Sucker and g Away Club The Pl demonstratin Overwh io and HO.

She suggested a rlice quiet look around the Zoo! Somewhat dubiously I assented, and was ' 36 . 1938 i .THE CHATHAMITE rewarded for my valor by the touching spectacle of Alice Cocke's playing around with her teddy bears. Just as we were leaving, a stretcher approached, bearing Sheila Clark, who had lost her girlish bloom, and was now but a lying shadow of her former self. Sheila, Dorrie in- formed me, had suffered a complete collapse after putting Shawan and herself through Nevada Teachers' College. Among the bevy of nurses in Sheila's wake was Flo Ward- well! Flo, inspired by her essay, set out to be the nation's nurse, but so far she has had to pay people to be her patients. Leaving the Zoo, we zipped to the Domestic Art Building, where we beheld Ginger Vinnedge graciously accepting the prize for the gooiest huckleberry jam, 'midst the clamors of her numerous brood. In the next room the Knitting Marathon was going on. Deering was way ahead, having just finished the toe on her thousand and first bedsock, but was still going strong when we left her. This being Pittsburgh, I thought we really ought to go to see the Model Mine Village. Whom should we bump into there but Frannie Colville! Emerging black but victorious from the regions below, she was leading with great savoir faire a delegation of miners, sent to learn the latest dope on how to enter a mine with studied indifference. Swaying high over the village was a large poster of a lovely pink and white girl--Dolly Berkeley, of course! The poster was captioned The Miner's Mascot, Or Our lcleal Of The Perfect Woman ! The strains of Yes, We Have No Benny Goodman Today caught our ears: looking around we saw what looked like Fergy, peering over mountains of records in her Fair and Fairer Music Shop. She urged us to buy Minnie The Moocher done in a classical mood, the latest number put out by the World's Fair Symphony Orchestra. In it she pointed out the restrained variations of Emily Griffin, who plays on the comb in the Orchestra. The Marine Exhibit seemed to be the suitable place to go next. I was just about to dub this the fair's biggest bore, when I remembered that Lydia Cobb must be here. Yes, there she was, managing with great gusto the toy sailboats featuring knee-action sails! On the way out we were mowed down by an onrushing horde of females in white pinafores. Coming up for air, I saw Hollister bringing up their rear. That, snorted Dorrie, rubbing a bruised eyebrow, is the Home for Wayward Girls, of which Alice is the Matron, out on their usual holiday jaunt. Gathering our pieces together, we pushed on to the Progress of the Dance Building. As we were going up in the elevator, the fumes of some species of perfume took possession of the air and practically made me swoon. I traced their source to a slinky siren who had her nose so far up in the air that she was probably out of reach of her odoriferous append- age. When Dorrie identified her as L'Amour L'Amour, the former Emily Clemons, on her way to Hollywood from Paris, I really did pass out. Recovering, I was able to clap as Hope Rogers led the Big Apple, peculiar to I937, and Molly Hays stood in for the Waltzing Pony, a chance she had been waiting for all year. Complaining of mental over-taxation, I begged Dorrie to take me to the Amusement Park. Relaxing on the roller coaster, I felt a hello fan my ears, and caught a glimpse 37 1938 THE C2 r I HATHAMITE.

Out in th street I nearly collided with a great swarm of people, running somewhere frantically. on't be alarmed, explained Dorrie. That's not a revolution. They're just the tennis ans, trying to get tickets to watch Marie Hulburcl, Von Cramm, Ruth Cunningham, a d Donald Budge play! We passe the Colonial Mansion. Sitting on the piazza was Caroline Boxley, crisply summerish in a with unruffled Nearby vealed, Snow- rhat it was Sall hite crinoline, with her hair demurely coiled in ringlets, dealing out tickets harm. as an impressive tomb, surrounded by sentinels.

This incited the Cropper-Communist War, resulting in the annihilation of all parties concerned. Upon leaving this House of the Dead, I heard a piercing cry: Ten dollars a gallon: quart and half-pint sizes also! And there was Wooly Brown, selling ten-gallon hats! Feeling bookish, we walked into the Literary Display Building. A book caught our eye: Fluffy-Wujfy and His Palsy-Walsies, by Jeff Fuller. Jeff, who tried her hand at philosophy, psychology, and entomology, finally gave up and now writes bedtime stories. Plowing through mountains of weighty tomes and volumes, I finally found a copy of l945's version of Life. Flipping over the pages, I was suddenly struck by the sight of a familiar face peering up at me from an advertisement. The caption read: 'I too feed my children Crackle-Wackle Cereal,' says socially prominent Mrs. Van Plush, the former Marguerite Hillman. Maggie-of course! Hearing a deep sigh, I looked up and saw Joan Morgan struggling with a complicated mechanism. .loan had just taken an action picture of me reading, only to find that the camera was set for time exposure ! Leaving her still surrounded by bulbs and lenses, I gathered up Dorrie and pushed on to the History of the Drama Building, our last stop. A revival of Uncle Tom's Cabin was going on, in which Evie Mills had the part of little Eva. And it was here that I ran into the notorious Mary Jane Hart, surrounded by men. Mary Jane, regretting her former views on life, now runs a model salon! 4 But the time had come, as times will, when it behooved me to leave the Fair and Chatham. On the way to the station, I noticed a pathetic figure, frantically climbing a tree. It turned out to be Claire Streeter, hiding from the mob of autograph fiends who love her for her celebrated, though much belated, review on Derc M abc!! Bidding Dorrie a fond farewell and showering her with thanks, I just had time to grab a Tootsie Roll and catch the Southern Special. Sinking down exhausted into what I thought was my seat, I heard a faint squeal and discovered myself on top of Mme. Bunne Brundre! Mme. Brundre was taking a vacation from designing bathing caps for the sub- debs who patronize the Fair pool. Pushing her aside I once more sank down and immersed myself in the newspaper. Suddenly I started. On the pink sheet, written in blazing headlines, was the following news item: Phyllis Cook, Alias 'the Fish,' Hauled into Court on Blackmail Charge. Pleads Not Guilty. That, as you may gather, was why I hadn't come across Fishie's smiling face at the Fair! But my editor is foaming at the mouth over yonder: duty calls: and I must take leave of you. that is if you were able to survive this lengthy epistle.

THE CI-IATHAMITE ' 1-2.2 fi . ,Q THE BIT AND SPUR CLUB 'lihe growing enthusiasm and interest in riding at Chatham Hall is due largely to the members of the Bit and Spur Club. The club is composed of a small group of girls, chosen not only for their ability, but also for their sportsmanship and helpful attitude. With Ginny Witherow at its head, it has carried on the riding traditions of the school, presenting a gymkhana in the fall, the May Day drill and tournament, and the final Horse Show. Be- ginners as well as advanced riders are advised and helped along by the riding club in cooperation with the Brushes and Ginny Downing.

THE SHERWOOD DRAMATIC CLUB One of the most interesting and productive organizations in the school is the Sherwood Dramatic Club. The achievements of the club include much more than mere acting experi- ence. Students are encouraged in individual interpretation: costumes, make-up, stage sets, and lighting are carefully planned and carried out by the Dramatic Association, which is an essential part of the Club. Miss Frost's expert coaching and attention to detail have resulted in many unusual and finished productions. Pat O'Brian, the capable, efficient President, has kept the organization running smoothly, and has been invaluable in the gen- eral supervision and direction of plays. The range of plays has been great: there was tragedy in Riders to the Sea, touching sadness in The Old Lady Shows Her Medals, and uproarious comedy in The Proposal.

TI-IE CHATHAMITE SPORTS OF 1938 The season opened with the always entertaining swimming meet. The contestants, clad in the customary snappy suits, found no trouble in being amusing. Again the Colds gave the Hallowe'en party as a penalty for losing the meet. The Colds proved that they had not been completely drowned by fighting through to victory in the tennis matches. The California star, Cunningham, defeated Hulburd after three fast sets. The Purples, represented by Hulburd and Wyeth, were downed again by Cunnie and Stevie. The Purples grew more depressed as Colds triumphed in rapid succession in both archery and golf. An enthusiastic crowd witnessed Hastie score over Campbell. First, second, and third places in the archery tournament went to Colville, Brown, and Cheney respectively. ln the badminton tournament, an increasingly popular game here, Stevie vanquished Bobbie Brown, to add another laurel to the Colds' crown-to say nothing of points. At the conclusion of the fall tournaments we began soccer with renewed enthusiasm. When the time came for the final games, two very proficient teams were chosen. The hrst teams were so evenly matched that the game was a tie, while the Purples walked off with second-team honors. A Due to the large number of spring sports, basketball was played in the fall this year. In both games the Purples showed themselves to be superior to the Colds. When we returned from Christmas vacation, volleyball and hockey were the two sports demanding our attention. The former was introduced at Chatham Hall for the first time this year. The Purples demonstrated their ability by winning both games. However, they were not so fortunate in hockey. Two well-coached teams took the field and the first half ended with the score 0-0, but in the second half the Colds put on a tremendous drive, carrying the ball down the field and into the goal. The Purples were unable to score dur- ing the remainder of the game. The second-team game was one of the most exciting games ever seen at Chatham Hall. With the Colds leading 3-l and two minutes left to play, victory seemed certain, but the Purples brought all onlookers to their feet by scoring two goals, thus tying the score. As we go to press, there still remains ample opportunity for either team to win the much coveted plaque. Only time will tell the results of this year's rivalry between the teams. 65 1938.

And as I speed downwards, faster and faster, My eyes become blinded from sharp-pointed snowflakes Which swirl 'round my head in a seething white cloud. Around me press closely the branches of pine trees, Which, heavily laden, arch their necks proudly, And, wishing to show me their soft, downy garments, Brush at my face as I pass swiftly by. Flying down thus at a breath-taking speed With the world rushing past, both about and beneath me, Is surely that thing which thrills and delights me, Filling my soul with excitement and joy.

Of all the people in the world, he would have been the most surprised if he had known of this: his parents, a sensible, organized, and modern pair, would have ru a close second. For all they knew, Channing's only lapse from normalcy had been the tme that he had claimed actually to have reached China during a digging session. Utterl convinced of the truth of his tale, he had described at length the games he had played n the company of a baby deer, a mermaid white as snow, a small boy black as ebony, and thousand and one pink butterflies that were not butterflies, for they had human bodies. His parents, unwilling to repress his imagination, had applauded his story well, but had c refully explained that there are two kinds of stories, true and pretend, and, while the latte were all very well in their way, it would never do to let them lose their subordinate po ition. So Chan 'ng never knew he was a fay, and he grew to be, at sixteen, a very ordinary boy with a ver ordinary crush on pretty little Marcia Linacre. Marcia liked him, too, but they used to q rrel a lot. As Channing never afterwards remembered how any particular quarrel started, it was not strange that he one day found himself standing in front of Marcia, who had just id something very biting and was enjoying the effect it had had, wishing with all his sou that she were a clinging vine so that he could tear her apart, slowly. He was genuinely hocked when in Marcia's place there was suddenly nothing but a brand new honeysuck vine, wonderingly twisting and untwisting itself. Channin -it was Marcia's voice- l'm sorry. l'm very sorry. I'll never do it again. ' Oh. that's all right, Marcia. My fault, too, I guess. You're fweet, to be so forgiving. You're liice, yourself. Pause. Channing Yes? Hasn't it been long enough? I mean, I'll be good now. Let me go. But, Marcia, I haven't the vaguest idea of how to go about it! an Didn't you change me in the first place? Yes. Well, then, unchange me. l'm sorrv, I can't. l don't even remember how I did it, and I certainly can't break a spell I don't lremember how I made, can I? Oh, you're horrid! I'll never speak to you again. D0n't thpnf' l Pause. 5 u u Uchanningl Are you leaving me? I've got o go to supper, Marcia. Channin , I'll cry. I'm scared of being left alone like this. Look, arcia. l've got to leave you for a while, but you'll be all right. No, no! ' I must: ut while l'm gone, I'll think of a way to disenchant you. N 74 . l 9 3 8 1 A t . THE CI-IATHAMITE Channing's mother was worried: his father, annoyed: for Channing came late to supper, ate hardly anything, said little, and left the table at the earliest possible moment. Thev could not realize that he was too miserable for food or speech. In fact, Channing felt like a murderer: a super-murderer. And he could not think of anything to help Marcia, because, not knowing he was a fay, Channing had no faith in his powers. To have the complete self-confidence which he needs to work magic, every fay must know he is one. Channing, therefore, could not consciously work magic. Marcia, too, was miserable. There were so many startling noises that she literally trembled with fear: a nasty bee buzzed perilously close to her shrinking form, and would not be driven away: acorns dropped on her from the tree above, and they hurt. Marcia wept. She was so glad to see Channing again that she threw a couple of leafy branches around him: then his face told her the worst. However, human company was a comfort, even if not a help, and she begged him not to leave her again. Channing, the super-murderer, humbly acquiesced. If he could do no more, he at least could make the wretched vine's life reasonably contented. Anyway, Channing liked being out at night like this. The later it got, the less he felt like a super-murderer. By the same token, he grew more restless by the minute, getting up to run and jump about and to disappear among the trees for a little while. Marcia complained a little. She asked him, Why are you so fidgety, Channing? I can't help it, Marcia. I feel as if I were just about to learn something wonderful. It's in the back of my mind, and I canit quite get it. Midnight. Marcia stood up, half fearful that the spell was not really broken. Then, with a joyful cry, she stretched her arms out. Channing! I'm all right again! But the boy opposite did not recognize her. As a matter of fact, he looked so strange that she almost might not have recognized him. He looked as she felt, free, exalted. Channing ! He never looked at her. So that's it! he muttered, and he was gone. Marcia went straight home and never came near those woods again. -MARY BUCHANAN CAROTHERS, '39 li l 'al ' 'Z IS iii, 75 1938. l THE G l ? 1 E l The que smart world o quite declasse. is to declare, type of person you are confr give one of th ing with junio the ground wi which, if solve inevitably crop desperado air i Aha!

THE CI-IATHAMITE THE LAND Fields, grey-brown in the fading sunlight, and patterned into even squares by man's fencing handiwork, stretched on every side as far as the eye could see. Occasionally a few struggling trees relieved the monotony of the scene, and here and there a wreath of smoke rose to mingle with the blue of the sky, but primarily the aspect of the countryside was uninteresting, lonely, and bare. One isolated farmhouse, set in a dusty yard, served only to enhance the sequestered appearance of this desolate spot, and a traveler, passing through this land, might have shrugged and hastened on to a more cheerful neighborhood. To the man standing on the doorstep of this same battered dwelling, however, the view caused very different reactions. At the sight of the rich, moist loam of the fields, interspersed with a few brave shoots of green, feelings of pride, love, and passion surged up in his heart. As his glance wandered over a worn plow, he again felt the conquering power of the farmer whose planting has been successful, and his hands trembled with the very strength of his emotion. I-low he loved the soil, his own barren lands, and the most insignificant wonders of nature! A dull whimper from within the house recalled the impassioned man to more pressing realities, and worriedly passing his hand to his brow, he remembered the words of the visiting doctor: Your daughter is very ill, Smith. l'd advise an operation. An operation. The very phrase spelled his doom. To meet the expense he would be forced to sell the farm. Could he bear to sacrifice all the efforts of his life and give up what was the very meaning of his existence? l-le reasoned that little Mary had been sick before, yet his face grew lined and pained with the severity of his mental struggles. At last a glance at his new-sown acres reassured him in his decision. A few weeks later the receding rays of light again cast gloomy shadows in the deep furrows of the fields. The ever present curls of smoke threw a faint haze over the subdued countryside, and awaiting the coming twilight, the brown land lay silent and bare. A breath of wind languidly stirred up a puff of dust in the yard of the lonely farmhouse, and once again a man appeared on the threshold. The pungent smell of the earth and the scent of spring in the air rose to his nostrils, but unconsciously he strained for something more. Leaning forward, he sought the sound of a shrill childish voice or a glimpse of a vanished form. There was an irremediable gap in his life, yet one comfort remained. Love for it had been his ruling passion, and after all there was-the land. -MARY ELIZA BROWN, '38 77 1938 .

THE CI-IATHAMITE THE MAGNET The straight chairs, the colorless walls, the expressionless desk, the unappetizing ledgers, the-Oh what was the use? Robert whirled around in his swivel chair and hurled the timid secretary out of the room with a churlish dismissal. Must this go on day after day, year after year? Must he sit in this motionless office surrounded by bank material, while inside him an urge,--an unknown one, to be sure, but nevertheless an irresistible urge,-welled up in him from the depths of his heart? What was the magnet that kept pulling at his mind, usurping his peace and happiness? Why wasn't he happy here? With head in hands, Robert flashed through his life as a newspaper clipping reviews a man's deeds. Born in a Middle Western city, Robert Swift had gone to the state university, and, as all others in his family for generations, had become a banker. It had never entered his head to become anything but a banker. It was not done in the Swift family. Yet all through these first years, beginning as an office boy, then advancing rapidlyg gaining first his father's praise of his work, then his employer's approval, and now fthe envy of his fellowmenl, obtaining his own secretary, he had felt something to be wrong. It was as if an invisible hand during these three years had kept clutching at Robert, endeavoring to draw him away, and as if an unseen voice had kept repeating in his ear, Come to me. Still Robert was not a day-dreamer. Could this be a form of insanity? For a brief moment, the color left his face and his hands trembled, but Robert was a sensible man. Yet this unknown passion was tearing him apart. If only he could get at it, and fight it in the open, how much brighter the outlook would be. The vision of twenty, thirty, or maybe even forty years more of this intangible yearning, this gnawing cancer, was enough to kill any man. Nothing to be done about it though, and so quietly, calmly now, Robert resumed his work, called back his secretary in softer tones, and another day was nearly over. Robert had never been away from the Middle West, and it was with great enthusiasm that he accepted an invitation to spend his vacation in Maine with a college friend. His friend had written, Don't expect much. We just lead a quiet life here swimming in the ocean, but he knew he would enjoy it as it was all new to him. His friend had met him at the little station in the midst of a raging storm, and laughingly they had splashed their way up to his house on a cliff overlooking the ocean. As they had ducked inside, a thunder peal had split open their ears, and a burst of wind had shaken the whole house. Now, Robert stood in the dark living room waiting, while his friend hung up the coats. Suddenly he sensed a beating, a splashing, a regular thumping against the side of the house. Something made his heart beat faster: something made a tingling play tag up and down his spine: something made his head feel light and airy. What is the thumping? he feverishly questioned his friend, but before he had gained a reply, he dashed across the room and threw open the window. His mind was rushing around in circles, and some unknown exaltation was making him yell with joy. lt is just the waves! his friend shouted as Robert stumbled to the door. Don't go out, you fool. It is just the ocean kicking up in the storm. Feet hollowed far down in the soggy sand, legs quivering, arms outstretched, head thrown back, Robert remained torpid in the midst of nature's fireworks, while the sea, that wild, raging expression of power, with its daring waves curling nearer and nearer to Robert, threw enticing spray in his face and employed all its deep greens and vivid blues to lure him to it. Although he was bewildered at first, slowly but surely a wild ecstasy of freedom surged over him. The sea! he shrieked. The sea! That was the magnet: that was the urge. Laughing with joy, he flung himself into those inviting, caressing waves, and breathing a sigh of contentment, he let the soft water fondle him. -is -is -is as as as as It was tragic and so puzzling: no one could comprehend it.

FAILURE The noisd was terrible: hourly the battle seemed to grow more fierce. The hot June sun beat downl on two armies of sweating men and horses. A momentous decision was being made. One forrry familiar the world over rode a horse back and forth, arranging his troops, shouting to hisimen in metallic phrases. He was going to break through the enemy and enter Brusselsglhe already had the proclamation in his pocket. Back and forth he rodeg with all his forlmer years of experience he encouraged his men to fight as they had never fought before. lThe soldiers loved him, worshiped him: and they responded with a new and flercer attakk. The littlei man kept riding up and down. He grew more tense. His dreams seemed to totter. Wa' he being defeated? No, that was not possible. His life's aim, his life's work, he could not fail now: no, he must not. Savagely he dug his spurs into his lathered mount. Red ddts appeared on the horseis foam-flecked sides. The animal responded, and ran into the dminishing ranks. The commander remembered previous battles when his men had not f llen like this: instead they had swept on, brushing the foe aside. Oh, he could not lose liowl Victory was so terribly near, and yet so far. He stood up in his iron stirrups and yelled tensely to his men. His whole life had been a military one-he had been born in a ar, he had spent all his school years in a military academy, and his entire manhood stud ,ng and successfully carrying out military tactics. A whole lifetime working to make an obsession come true. He must not fail now. Slowly, cfm so slowly, a terrible thing happened. The realization that he was being defeated cameion him. The little commander grew pale: how hard it was for him who had always bedn successful to realize the truth. He felt weak:-yes, he was losing. Sweat poured off his face. Fresh enelmy troops had arrived and they poured a deadly fire into his ranksg he was outnumbered two to one. Terror came on his men: he had failed to hold them together. Once more he stood up in his stirrups, and to his waiting men he yelled a retreat. For the first time as a cbmmander he was the leader of a routed army. The remainder of his sadly depleted armyldisbanded and the little man with a few faithful friends made his way to Paris. Bitter, hey still believed he could raise new troops. Defeat, however, was on him, and he could not rdlly his men. Everywhere men spurned himg they did not believe his defeat temporary. It was almost impossible for him to realize that he now held little power over men. He waslbitterg yes, his one desire in life, power, was gone. Humbly he sailed to England to seek peace from his disgrace. 80 .1938 . THE CI-IATHAMITE There was no peace for himg in sailing to England he had entered a trap which crushed him. Qnce in Plymouth Harbor he was taken captive. The capture wounded him deeply, not so much because of his loss of freedom, but because the world refused to recognize his greatness. In due time he was put on another ship which soon set sail for a distant island. By evening he had lost sight of Europe which he had ruled. Darkling was the sea which he had never been able to rule. He stood in the bow not looking forward nor backward either. As on the voyage to Egypt he looked upward toward the stars. He was seeking his own star. So drew to a close the life of one of the greatest men who ever lived: a man who lost in nine days an empire he had fought for nine years to win. l-le had a fierce, cruel, ruling passion, a passion to rule: a passion that wrote a name on the world never to be effaced--Napoleon Bonaparte. -ASHEILA CLARK.

This was her golden opportunity to dent that glazed make her mark on the Princeton athlete. She racked her brain for a scintil- kh which to open the conversation. She said, HHello. He looked at her with that fascinating, crooked smile. Hello, he replied. Celia felt at this moment much as she often did when she was asked to prove a m theorem in ge made a gratin Almost partner that e 0 8 U V etry class. She could think of nothing but bright, whirling discs which noise in her ears. consciously she repeated the same few words she had said to her every ing. The orchestra is rather good, isn't it? she chattered brightly. V S2 1938 . THE CHATHAMITE Not bad. he agreed. This was terrible, this was awfulg something had to be done! He broke in on her agonized reverie. Would you like some punch? he asked. Celia had already had five cups. but she assured him that she was simply dying for a drink. It would be easier to concentrate on something witty if she were not trying to follow his intricate steps. She sank onto a couch in a small room just off the ballroom, while he went to get the punch. She watched the other girls through the doorway as they whirled by, talking gayly to their partners. What did they find to say? Before coming to one of these huge parties where she knew about one per cent of the guests, she usually thought of five different topics to discuss: the Yale football team, if he were a Yale man: the Princeton team, if he went there: the recent edition of his school magazineg the respective merits of Goodmans and Dorsey's orchestrasp and other equally trite subjects. Naturally she used them only if the boy didn't give her any sort of opening in another direction, but she simply couldn't pull any of that hackneyed conversation on Christopher. He had been around too much to be even vaguely interested in that obvious stuff. He gave her the cup of punch and sat down. Thanks a lot, she murmured. Quite a crush around the punch bowl, he remarked. I had to fight my way in. Your Tiger training is quite practical, l suppose, for just such instances as that, Celia hazarded. Of all the stupid things to say! Celia mentally tore her hair because of the inanity of those words. To cover them, she said quickly, Do you know Red Miller or Alfred Winston at Princeton? They both live in my building, but I don't see much of them. Oh, really? Then you must live in Holder. Second Hoor to the left, he admitted: and added, Shall we dance? This was utter torture. Why didn't someone cut in? He already thought she was a perfect drip: she couldn't go through the ignominy of being stuck with him. When do you have to be back at Princeton? she inquired. The eighth, I guess. It certainly depresses me to think about it. I really have to put on a major drive for those mid-years. l suppose, though. that you wouldn't know any- thing about the brain-splitting tension of exams. You d0n't have them at that country club of yours, do you yt Certainly we do, and they're just as hard as any you ever had in prep school. This was wonderful, a definite opening if only she could keep up the argument. She continued. Country club! I don't know where you ever got that idea of Chat- ham. We really work down there. Oh. that awful Peters boy was coming to cut in. and just when Christopher had started to look interested. Now he would never dance with her again. Why hadn't that Peters person waited a little longer, until she had had a chance to erase from Christopher's mind those first awkward moments? Archie Peters was almost upon them now, and Celia summoned a bright smile to turn on Christopher when he would relinquish her to that under- nourished, big-eared, prep school youth. Thank you, she began. Celia, Christopher interrupted her, let's go in town to the Drake when this party breaks up. -MARCIA WILLIAMS, '39 N 1938. THE CHATHAMITE .

However, not being quite certain myself that it actually happened, I cannot permit myself to yield to the temptation of breathing a word of it to my worthy friend, Joseph Addison, should he, perchance, find opportunity of reprimanding foolish old men in his Spectator Papers. Moreover, I should not wish to let my tenants hear of this, since they would doubtless think me on the verge of my dotage. However, for the sake of keeping clear in my own mind the exact experiences of yesterday, and, as I have said before, for the beneht of my future descendants, I shall proceed to put it down here. The night before last, having fallen into a very troubled sleep, most probably the result of a large and sumptuous dinner which I attended at the house of a friend, I woke up in the morning with not a small amount of irritability, only to find myself in a different room from the one in which I had gone to sleep, and, moreover, a room which I had never set eyes on before. Being in a rather dazed condition, however, I could not forbear thinking that I was merely stupefied from my bad night's sleep, and therefore decided to ring for my valet that he might bring me my usual breakfast. Imagine my surprise, then, when I reached for my cord, and instead knocked my hand into a strange looking object, standing on a table, where my candle is wont to be! Upon perceiving this, I immediately jumped from my bed, assuming that the wine had been a bit too strong for me the previous evening, and that my friend had put me up in his own house. In my haste to get dressed, I did not look about me very carefully, and realizing that I had probably slept longer than usual, I wished to go down to my host, thank him for his kind considera- tion, and then drive on to Coverley I-Iall. I shall never forget the sensation I experienced when, in throwing a rapid glance out of the window, I perceived that my room was situated many stories above the street, and upon looking farther out I saw so many strange and wonderful sights as I never hope to see again. There on the street I saw thousands of people scurrying about, constantly, as it seemed, avoiding large and swiftly moving vehicles, in which, as in a coach, were seated four or Eve people. Moreover, to my amazement, I saw towering above the street enormous buildings, which seemed, in truth, to be touching the sky. These were the objects which met my bewildered eyes, and which confirmed my former belief that I was thoroughly ill after the effects of the dinner. This induced me, more than ever, to hasten to my host. I shall not dwell on the painful sensation which I had upon opening my door, and finding myself in a long hall, which could not possibly have been in the house of my friend. As quickly as my age and dignity permitted, I went down innumerable stairs, until I at length reached the ground floor. Perceiving that no one was in sight, I went out of the street door, wishing first of all to determine my whereabouts, and to make further discoveries about the strange sight which had met my eyes through the window. I had no sooner stepped out of the door, than I felt myself pulled into a whirl- wind of madly rushing people. I proceeded to walk as rapidly as I was able up an imposing avenue, which seemed to be thronged with such objects as I had never seen before. In my bewildered state of mind, all the people about me seemed to be hastening toward some unknown destiny which pushed them forward, ever faster, until I became so confused at looking about me that I was forced to stand still to recover my senses. I had not as much 1938 . I I THE CHATHAMITE as thought of where I was, being too stupehed and amazed to dwell upon such trifling matters, but pr sently that occurred to me. Moreover, I was beginning to wonder at the people I saw c ming towards me and at the clothes which they were wearing. Presently, I felt somethin tickling my face, and upon looking around to see who had thus offended me, the first thi g which I perceived was a long feather, then something which resembled a bonnet, such asiour fashionable ladies are wont to wear, and then, I saw that the person wearing this oblect was a woman. Never before had I seen anything equal to it! fE.ven our wenches atlthe amusement park have not as rouged lips as this baggage hadj She was clothed in ome sort of a shirt garment, reaching-I blush to think of it-just below her knees. Thelsaucy baggage, upon seeing me, immediately began to laugh, and remarked, You know, this is l938! Who do you think you are? at the same time surveying my clothes. I was lnaturally rather abashed, but upon observing other people, I noticed that they were dresssld in exactly the same absurd fashion as the woman who had addressed me. However, being of a philosophical nature, I decided that since I was in such a situation, there as nothing to do about it: the only thing to do was to place myself entirely in the hands oflGod, and hope that by some miracle I might be transported into my own century once mclre. In the meanwhile, I could make some very close observations of l938, which would c rtainly prove to be of interest to my own generation. With this thought in mind, I contin d. That whilh surprised me most was the apparent freedom of the women. By this, I mean that on every street I saw women walking about and unescortedg by the bits of conversation wh ch I chanced to overhear, I realized that the women were not only interested in literature, bu also were ardently interested in politics! I am amazed when I think of the great differe ce between our own sheltered, demure young women, and these audacious creatures of I9 8, who profess knowledge of literature and politics, which are both such obviously mascilline interests! After maily hours of varied and interesting experiences Cwhich I intend to record tomorrow, whe I will have fully recovered from my shock of yesterdayj, I at length sat down on a onvenient park bench, and weariness overcame me. I had closed my eyes for only an insIant, when I had the pleasant sensation of drowsiness, which immediately resulted in sleep. When next I awoke, I found myself lying in my own bed at Coverley Hall. I confess that I am thoroughly relieved to find myself safely at home again, and above all in m A own century. But whether my experience was real or not, I am in truth glad to realize ,ow fortunate we of the eighteenth century are in being able to relax and take life as it domes, not rushing madly, madly forward, ever faster, losing all sense of peace and quieti as does the twentieth century. -TERESITA SPARRE, '39 f W i . 1 ,st . l 1 SIM I SG 1938 .

Breakfast at the Lees' the next morning unearths a few more happy faces, seen assuming varied expressions of surprise, delight, and astounded excitement, at the sight of the re-interior-decorated library and the ritzy faculty club. The new girls' advance guard straggles in by degrees dur- ing the day and their main army takes us by surprise at night. Much goings-on in the form of tryouts, examinations, banquet, etc. just as the new girls are getting to feel that they know one or two people, along comes the old bunch to help corrugate their grey matter. Classes-mercifully short. Many innovations of interest: e. g., chocolate milk in the morning, to build us up, and two week-ends for everybody! The old girls, overflowing with hospitality, entertain the new 'uns at a picnic in the meadow. Eating, our main abstraction, is interrupted by scavenger hunt, games, Big Apples, bonfires, singing, dancing. The grand finale is furnished in the form of a lantern service, like, but not like, the one in June, intended to impress on the minds of the Seniors the vastness of their responsibility in the school. The intricacies of the pledge system and the Service League are explained to us at the first meeting of that august body. We realize how strong is the grip of the Big Apple when a phone call for a certain teacher discloses the fact that she is in Willis Hall, deep in the throes of that inscrutable dance. Helen Owsley drops in, en route for Charlottesville. Hay-fever rocks the school at a barn dance in Willis, given by the new girls. Between sneezes we are able to enjoy the entertainment pro- vided by Dodo Pell, in the form of Huffard-Cauchois, dancing a la Allen, and many other numbers. The highlight of the evening, though, is the sight of the faculty really getting the Big Apple hot. Two frozen plants are offered Charlie Morris and Louise Stillwell, new girl and old girl respectively, for winning the name contest, which pre- sentation was preceded by a very superior recital by Miss Andrus. A new face appears in our midst-belonging to Mary Mitchell, who by some unkind fate has been in the infirmary since we got here- just a cold id the dose, she says. Just as we are getting used to one new girl, along comes another: Miss Marion f Mimi J Sutphen, if you please! How do! After thinking up fifty appropriate puns to make concerning The Big Chance, we fthe editorsj decline to print any of them, knowing you can doubtless do far better. A really inspiring lecture by Dr. Thurman proves a pleasant contrast to our Australian friend, hair-do Sims, of last night. ST THE Cl!-IATHAMITE Oct. Oct. Oct. Oct. Oct. Oct. Oct. Oct. Nov. Nov. Nov.

Betsy Rust, looking very Greta Garboish, comes to pay us all a visit. The curious case of customs is explained to us by Dr. John Temple Graves. According to him, our generation may expect to raise our off- spring in strictest Victorian style, while our great-grandchildren will probably be the most spoiled good-for-nothings in history! Now there was a young girl from China, but she was not Chinese- Who is it? Why Helen Roberts, of course, who finds, to her chagrin, two, instead of the usual one, room companions. The history trip staggers into the school they left so brightly two days ago. Apparently the oysters were of doubtful pedigree! The en-tire school officially receives its portion of punch examines the new faculty club-house, and and cookies in return. The scenic trip leaves, after a fervid prayer that the oysters will behave for them. Flinging realism to the winds, we hasten to don skulls and picture frames, in order to be eligible for the surrealistic Hallowe'en party, thunk up by the brainy Colds. Mary Jane Hart, portraying with forceful unrealism the barbarian that lies hidden within the most civilized of us, carries off the prize for the best costume. The first meeting of the Discussion Groups finds us tackling the problem of: What do we expect of an education? Well, I bite, what do we? A few lucky Presbyterians, much to our disgust, gorge on yummy sandwiches and tea at Mrs. l-lurt's. Rising as a body. the Episcopalians ask why they don't rate, too! We feel something has been put over on us, as the younger members of the faculty trip the light fantastic with their escorts on into the wee small minutes of the morn. We console ourselves with leaning out of windows and catching the lilting strains of Satan Takes a Holiday. The lure of the college week-end causes an exodus of practically the whole school. The one or two people left are amused and touched in assembly by The Old Lady Shows Her Medals, with Peaches Finney as the old lady, and gripped by Riders lo the Sea, starring Mary Carothers. P. K. Kingsland, Doffy Bettle, and Ellie Herrick land in our midst! Miss Eliot gives us an illuminating talk dealing with such complex subjects as the government and its problems. The mountain folk of North Carolina suddenly come to life for us, as Dr. McClure tells us of the fascinating work he is doing among these people. The Clee Club, that much heard, but little seen, body, honors us with its annual concert, which we all agree quite lives up to its reputation for superfme vocal work. Thanksgiving! After tearing madly all day from picnic to movies we relax at night and gleefully watch our friends do their stuff in a very Amateur Hour, while Mr. Brush wields a wicked gong. After SR . 1938 . THE CHATHAMITE lengthy discussion the judges finally bestow the first prize on the Three Stooges, whom-we-knew-would-get-it-all-the-time-anyhow! Nov. 26, Fri. Mr. and Mrs. Paul Fleming present an Evening of Magic which leaves us pleasantly baffled. Dec. 3, Fri. Joseph Auslander gives us a lecture which helps to alleviate our depress- ing ignorance on the subject of poetry, interspersed with the charming poems of his equally charming wife, Audrey Wurdemann. Dec. 4, Sat. ,Iealously we watch the riders consuming mounds of doughnuts in the Crymkhana, and then find that we can buy equally tremendous mounds at the foreign bazaar that night- She'll Be Comin' Round' the Moun- tin! Dr. McClure's fiddlers swing it in true mountain style. Dec. l2, Sun. Pollie Winslow makes the loveliest madonna ever, in the Christmas Pageant, which this year is an honest-to-goodness Miracle play. Dec. l6, Thu. Christmas party for the white employees' children! They gaze with rapturous awe at the mighty Christmas tree and the elegant presents doled out by Sheila Clark as Mr. Santa. Dec. l7, Fri. The colored chilluns have their turn, and prove while going to Jeru- salem that they all got rhythm ! Dec. IS, Sat. Vacation! 'Nuff said!! WINTER TERM-l938 Jan. 4, Tues. We return, a little bedraggled and world-weary, but unfortunately minus one member, Anne Macy. Jan. 8, Sat. To vanquish lingering traces of vacation blues, some of our talented ones present the Chatham Follies. Emily Clemons as a slinky siren. Julie Foraker as a Cuban cabaret dancer, and Mrs. McKnight as a naive Nipponese leave us gasping for air! jan. 9, Sun. The League of Nations at long last becomes comprehensible to us, when Mr. Clark Eichelberger lectures on it in Service League. Jan. I5, Sat. Fascinated, we sit in assembly looking through a keyhole for fifteen minutes at Judy Gray as Mannikin and Dena Wright as Minnikin, in the play of the same title. Afterwards we go-woosh!-through France, in movies put out by the French railroad. Jan. l6, Sun. Our appreciation of music develops immeasurably as we listen to Miss Andrus's incomparable piano playing. Jan. l7, Mon. Tatiana Gnoocheff, no less than an exile from Russia, dances divinely, and makes us homesick for the Siberian Singers! Jan. 2!, Fri. Winnie arrives for a visit. A small addition on the third finger of her left hand makes us wonder U!! Jan. 23, Sun. Dr. Lee bids us goodby in Vespers just in time to catch the train for Florida. We trust that he will bring back a few fish in addition to stories! Jan. 26, Wed. No-Yes! Exams! Though one day later than usual. Glum faces prevail. Jan. 29, Sat. Mrs. Clemons presents a series of choice monologues which send us, per usual, into gales fhurricanes?J of laughter. jan. 31, Mon. Giotto and Rembrandt and Gainsborough parade before us, accompanied .1938 . by the artistic phraseology of Mrs. McKnight. S9 THE C !-IATHAMITE . Feb. 5, Sat. The mellow notes of Basil Browder, tenor, resound to the accompani- ment of the mellow playing of his wife! We clap vociferously for some jazz, but such selections as Old Man River, to a few of the better educated anyway, do just as well! - Feb. 7, Mon. Mary Cary Willcox fclass of '36J begins a two-week visit here. fShe may be petite, but she does believe in doing things in a big way.D Feb. 8, 9, l0. Miss Anne Wiggin and Youth and the New World in al! the world. Feb. IZ, Sat. The Dance. Rumor has it that everyone enjoyed it, but as this is debat- able, we will content ourselves with noting that the scenery was beautiful, the music divine, and the guests superb! Feb. I3, Sun. Service League Lecture: Mr. Robert West of the Danville Cotton Mills explains to us the ins and outs of this so-called Industrial Revolution. He narrowly escaped talking to thin air, several of our members finding the intimacy of their closets more convivial. Feb. I 7, Thu. Doffy and P. K. once again surprise us with their faces Cthis time slightly tanned, result of the Florida sunl. Feb. I9, Sat. The stream of French in assembly in La Pie Borgne was so eloquently fast that we're afraid we can't tell you much about it, other than it amused us. But The Proposal was in good plain English, and we caught all of the sweet nothings that passed between Pat O'Brian and Peaches Finney. Feb. 28, Mon. Miss Miller gives a recital, which, though the best she has ever given us, is a really very sad occasion, for it is the last time she will ever sing to us thus. Mar. 5, Sat. Dykie and Sally Ferguson arrive just in time to hear the first list of the temporary council read out. The Siberian Singers, diminished in num- bers but not in gusto, return at last. Better trained, perhaps, this year, we are able to receive them with more equilibrium than last year, and they express their appreciation by abstaining from all forms of midnight entertainment. Mar. I3, Sun. Mr. Robert Watt very forcefully tells us what Labor has to say about this present-day mess. Mar. I4, Mon. We elect a perfectly perfect May Queen, Maid of Honor, and First Lady of the Court: Carol Murray, Mary Sprague, and Pollie Winslow, respectively. Mar. IS, Fri. Nat Munson, Em Townsend, and Betty Zabriskie, last year's Mad Margaret, arrive in time to see our forthcoming The Pirates of Penzance. Mar. l9, Sat. The great, the only, The Pirates of Penzance, composed by that irresis- tible pair, Gil and Sull, and put on by the Glee Club of The Chatham Seminary for Girls! Sob with Bunny Mallory and Mary Sprague! Roar with Evie Mills and Mickey McGifTert! Get your no money's worth! fFitting ad, we think, for this performance to end all per- formancesj Mar. 24, Thu Spring-vacation-hence, home! SPRING TERIM-1938 Apr. 4, Mon.

THE CHATHAMITE able to show not too doubtful connections with the songsters have the privilege of entertaining them afterwards. Dr. Edward Lobenstien, after giving us a fine sermon in church, follows up with an equally fine lecture in Service League on that ever recurrent subject, China Miss Ethel Glenn Hier and a lecture-piano recital on and of contem- porary music. Mrs. William Slade entertains us at night with a lecture on Parson Woodford's Diary. Egged on by I-lollister's promises of old-fashioned games we celebrate Easter at Green Rock, doing full justice to Mr. Bunny. The sun rises on a real so'then May Day! After watching the riders perform in the drill and the Lancers dance, we don pre-Civil War and do square dances and Virginia Reels before the Queen fashions, and her Court. That evening we dance in a more up-to-date manner with our gentlemen guests. White dresses and candles and the new Service League relieves the old one of its duties. Final exams: the beginning of the end. Peering through clouds of dust, we watch horses and riders -do their stuff in the Horse Show. The Purple and C-old banquet occupies our attention next, after which we watch the Seniors hurl their books into a bonhre on the front driveway. Mr. Woolley must have nine lives at least to have survived the flames this long! The Baccalaureate Address is delivered by The Reverend W. Yates, St. Philip's Church, Durham, North Carolina. in the Emmanuel Church, Chatham. That night the Seniors pass on their lanterns and responsibil- ities to the Juniors in the traditional Lantern Service. Senior Class Day. The daisy chain is formed into the numerals '38, the class Prophecy and Will are read out, and the spirit of the Seniors is left behind in the form of a tree. That night we are thrilled by The Late Christopher Bean, starring Pollie Winslow, and with a supporting cast of Mary Carothers, Bunny Brundred, Julia Foraker, Dena Wright, Eedee Porter, Pat O'Brian, Marcia Williams, Louise Ligget, and Louise Dorrance. Commencement. Mr. John B. Hollister Cfather of our ownj is the speaker. Comes noon-and we have scattered to the winds, burdened only with memories of a wonderful year. 91 Z2 4 8 fm .vw Rf 'M Vx ww 1 ii f an -Q. sw 'Q X ! .a 1- W if .
