A faded corsage, a marred program, a bit of ribbon, an invita- tion, a telegram, a snapshot—these compose a memory book. In this 1944-1945 issue of the CORONET are compiled the innumerable bits of sentiment surrounding your college life—the hours of “toil and study, the hours of frolic, the hours of solemnity, the hours of joy and sadness. The col- lection of souvenirs are the same for all, but the sentiment you attach to them will invoke memories that only your heart will ever know. J MISS LOMA SQUIRES A noble instance of one's devotion to her Aiwa Mater is witnessed in the invaluable services of Miss Loma Squires, dietitian of Queens College. Since Miss Squires returned to Queens, in the spring of 1939, her sacrificial love, her tire- less industry in the face of her overwhelming odds of war- time conditions, her splendid cooperation in all activities j which called for her help, and her kind generosity have endeared her to the faculty and students of Queens. j ADMINISTRATION The success and joy of our college life depends, in a large way, on the wise guidance, the friendly counsel, and the valuable judg- ment of the administration.

MASON Bryan Darbyshire Ezell SENIOR CLASS In rhc autumn of nineteen hundred and forty one. we came to college, a little nervous, a little timid among the upperclassmen, but brimming with energy and plans for our four years at Queens. During our Freshman year we paraded as flappers’’ on Rat Day. won a proud second place on Stunt Night, and helped instigate the redecoration of the Recreation Room. Midway our first year in college we heard the President declare our country at war. Ours were to be wartime college years. As Sophomores, the class of 45 worked harder and lived more seriously than we had as Freshmen. That year we drafted the new Freshmen into the Queens Quacks for a G. I. Rat Day. and we won another second place in Stunt Night. Apart from the lighter phases of college life, we chose our major subjects and studied them in earnest, bought war stamps, and read the newspaper word for word. The Juniors of nineteen forty-three and forty-four led busy lives on the campus. We worked up to first place on Stunt Night and sponsored the second annual Sorority Sing. We had hard-working members on the War Service Committee, and in every organization functioning at Queens. On the lighter side of things— we gave the Senior class a big send off with a Canteen banquet at the Country Club. Our last year was the best year; yet none of them will ever fade. We danced at the first formal our college ever gave and won again that first prize ribbon at Stunt Night. Some of our fearless ones went into the city schools as practice teachers. Our commence- ment inspiration will never leave us—that last memory of Alma Mater transcends all others. The four impatient years are over: we are graduates of Queens College. Though clouded by war. they have been happy years, wonderful years—and too short. We leave part of ourselves to Queens and yet take much more of her with us. To you. Alma Mater, each member of the class of ’45 would say. Thank you for what you are and for what you have made of us. 4 Adams Ballard Bowman SENIORS Barren tine Bost Bryan EDNA ALYNE ADAMS WINSTON-SALEM.

We began Orientation Week acquainting our sister class—the Freshmen—with college life. During Orientation Week we gave a dance for the Freshmen. In November we concentrated on the social fellowship of our own class at a weiner roast; at Christmastime we edited and sold the Student directories for the student body and faculty; in January we sponsored the dramatic murder mystery. “Nine Girls,“ given by the Queens Players; again in March we spon- sored Queens Players’ dramatic production of “Little Women. A fashion show, sponsored by our class, was also given in March. In April we sponsored a square dance for the girls only and a sorority sing. The end of the year lound us selling personal note cards and identification labels. The climax of our year’s activities was the delightful Junior-Senior Banquet, given in May at the Myers Park Country Club. o O j 4 r JUNIORS Elnora Anderson Louisville, Ky.

AT QUEENS Who's Who Among Students in American Uni- versities and Colleges is published through the co- operation of over 600 American colleges and uni- versities. These books are placed in the hands of com- panies who annually recruit outstanding students for employment. I he purpose of Who’s Who is to serve as an incentive for students to get the most out of their careers, as a means of compensation to students for what they have already done, as a standard of meas- urement for students, and as a recommendation to the business world. Requisites for membership are character, scholar- ship. leadership in extra-curricular activities, and potentiality for future usefulness to business and society. SOPHOMORE CLASS OFFICERS Shirley Warner President PEGGY Kimrey........Vice-President LAURA Sanford .Secretary-Treasurer SOPHOMORE CLASS The Sophomore class began its activities with the sponsorship of the tra- ditional Rat Day exercises, at which time the Sophomores tormented the F-reshman rats for one seemingly endless day which was culminated in the austere Rat Court judgment that night. To this tradition the Sophomores added a unique ceremony by which the rat caps were distributed with impressive dignity. To the fame of the Sophomores was added the top victory of the class team hockey tournament. Other activities engaged in this year by the Sophomore class were: participation in Stunt Night at which time the class presented a reminiscent historical sketch of the highlights of two years at Queens, adding to the treasurer’s account by selling drinks on Saturday nights in the recreation room, and playing wholeheartedly in the spring basketball tournament.

FRESHMAN CLASS Words cannot describe a Freshman's history. While other class histories are composed of active participations in innumerable affairs and sponsoring of various activities, our history is a tightly woven series of memories, attitudes, and ideas, existing as predominantly in our minds as the upperclassmen’s activities exist on the year’s calendar. Our very first days at Queens left us with a conglomerated mass of impressions. Bewildered and lonely, we were befriended by sympathetic upperclassmen. There were puzzling placement tests, acquaintance parties in the recreation hall, the dance at which we became acquainted with our big sisters, AND air corps cadets, teas, and the luncheon at the iMyers Park Club. But those days passed and Rat Day found us toddling into classes and over the campus as babies, complete with bonnets, suckers, rattles, and dolls. Our humorous pantomime dog act, “Every Dog Has Its Day. nearly stole the show at Stunt Night and won second prize. The thrills of sorority rushing and the tense moments of the “decisions of a lifetime,” the overwhelming joy of Christmas holidays—those were never-to-be-forgotten days. Gradually we became instilled with the spirit of this college “deep within the waving forest. Our history may be uneventful, but it is a bright spot in the hearts of us all.
