Ushers Whether it’s a faculty recital, community con- cert, or lecture, the ushers are always at the door as guests and students enter the auditorium. A Coker armband against a pretty evening dress, a handful of programs and a smile—these are the trademarks of our ushers. They’re always there and ready to help with a smile. Head ushers this year are Dorothy Dowling and Jennie Lee Bar- ringer. Left to Right: Collins, Burgess, Harvey, Brinson, Long, Dowling, Barringer, Johnson. Chapel Proctors Mass meeting or chapel, the Chapel Proctors are always on hand to mark down in their little roll books who is present or absent. Somehow they always seem to see us—even if we’re sitting in the wrong seat and how often they have to change “tardies” to ‘‘presents!”’ Besides wearing out lead and erasers, these proctors also wear out good leather soles walking up and down the aisles carrying all kinds of material back and forth to the students. What would we do without them! Chapel Proctors are elected each semester. Those pictured are our first semester proctors. First Row: James, Johnson—Head Proctor, Sawyer. Second Row: Webster, Matthews, Barnes, Harvey, Speredonakis, Williams, Brinson. 108

These day students of ours perform miracles that even we dorm students think impossible. For instance: how perfectly ghastly for us to have to drag out of a warm bed and go to class. That minute late was due to an extra minute in bed after the alarm went off. How much more terrible it must be to have to get up and drive from Florence, Chesterfield, or Bishopville to Coker and be on time for an 8:30 class. Somehow, the day students keep informed of the “going-on’s” around Coker, usually better than we who live here. It’s uncanny, how they find out about those announcements in the dining room that we didn’t even hear! The canteen is a familiar place to the Day Students. Here’s where you find them when they have a free period. Occasionally, like everyone else, you'll find them in the library studying! Sponsored by Dr. Fahrner and headed by Joyce Tyner, these day students meet regularly to keep up-to-date on the activities and special news of Coker. Joyce Tyner, President

| Fire Wardens The dorm is quiet, with all students—except one—sound asleep. That one flips a switch—and another fire drill is underway. In every room lights are turned on, raincoats are hastily donned, | and everyone hurriedly leaves the building. A nuisance? Yes, but also a necessity, and whether she objects or not, each girl realizes the impor- tance of knowing what to do in case a real fire should ever threaten Coker. wee Left to Right: Jackson, Matthews, Huggins, Alexander, Whittington—Chief; Owens, White, Connor, Earp. tappa Mu Epsilon For those with mathematical leanings, the , Math Club furnishes an opportunity to further develop their interest in mathematics. The local club is the Alpha Chapter of the national organ- ization, Kappa Mu Epsilon, and is the only chap- ter in South Carolina. This year members have enjoyed programs on the history of mathematics and tricks with numbers. At other meetings the members have worked unusual problems. Fresh- men math students have visited at some of the club’s meetings. Left to Right: D. Hucks, Brinson—President, Mr. Saunders—Sponsor, C. Hucks, Askins, Gee. 109
