pepe ine Pr oe “The thing I most remember is how beautifully feminine she looked in her blue hat that matched her blue eyes.” Thus a chapel speaker this year described our Pro- fessor of Biology who came to Coker to head that department in 1935. Who’s Who in America lists her as a Botanist, but to us she is much mote. Therefore, for her ingenuity, planning and supervision that gave us a handsome and well-equipped Science Building, for the way she has used her love for all grow- ing things, especially camellias, for our constant pleasure as we stroll this beautiful campus, for her vivaciousness, charm, intelligence and interest not only in our school and in us as individuals but also in the community of Hartsville, and for the inspiration she has been to us as students—for all these things and more we dedicate this, the Milestone for 1956, to MISS VELMA MATTHEWS

Ey) Brevord In this edition of THE MILESTONE, we have at- tempted to preserve in pictures and words the highlights amd the choicest memories of this year at Coker .. . the visions, ideals, and achievements of campus life; the ardent labor involved in the endless hours of study, practice, and rehearsals; the refreshment that comes with whole-hearted play through sports events, dances, dates, bridge, shopping trips, jam sessions, the poignant joy on passing a difficult exam, and the feelings of concern on the part of fellow student and instructor as you struggle with some scholastic or personal difficulty. THE MILESTONE staff has enjoyed the full co- operation of the administration, faculty, and student body. Satistical information has been graciously given, photo- graphs have been made when it wasn’t exactly convenient for everyone concerned, snapshots have been loaned .. . all, with a smile. We of THE MILESTONE staff hope that we have succeeded in compiling the experiences and sentiments of our whole college life from the orientation of homesick and awestruck freshmen to the culminating thrill of grad- uation day. Clad with tradition, its tone unmel- lowed with age, the bell rings out on sleep filled ears in the morning, helps students get to special functions on time, and closes the dating hours much too soon. ot ae ee a ee Fi atthée- 4 Ritrae fpttnat Ctxas J 4 a (iva 2 , 7 oe goes tl tal i Z 7 ly A LE CLK AHL 4 A.
