HERE are many seemingly paradoxical philosophies that confront young men and women as they seek to join the ranks of their more ex- perienced yet none the less confused elders. They hear mankind pray for peace and prepare for warg advocate international brotherhood and need- lessly create animositiesg preach racial and religious tolerance and harbor unjustihed prejudice and hatred. One philosophy reflects the radiant and unselfish teachings of Jesus Christ while the other carries an ominous warn- ing of Beelzebub-Prince of the Devil. The age-old conflict between Right and Wrong is still raging, hence the seemingly obtuse philosophies of life. The fact that there are constructive ideals and influences at work in the mind of man should awaken courage in the hearts of those who have set their own course toward the Great Light. In spite of all the political and social unrest and economic uncertainty Qpossibly because of itD there is a wider chasm developing between the competing contestants, and Right is in the lead. Whether or not the gap widens is going to depend upon you and your children. Eventually Right will win, but in the meantime-what? ' H.

One hundred and one other classes have stood, as We do now, on the threshold of graduation from Colby. From this rich background of tradition, to which has been added the wisdom and experi- ence of our own administration and faculty, we emerge. But have we, as students, contributed anything to this heritage, and will we, as citizens of that larger world beyond these New London hills, be able to live up to it? It is not for us to enumerate our achievements as Colby students, if indeed we have made any. We can only be grate- ful for the opportunity these two years have brought us. Many of us, while here, have had visions of a society where all might have similar opportunities. But are these only arm- chair reveries, or vvHl vve really try to vvork tovvard their realization? Thirty-niners, the answer is up to us! l29l JEAN ANDERSON 10 Westland Street Worcester, Massachusetts Liberal Arn The calm serenity of her disposition belies the fact that she is one of the busiest gals on campus. . .yet her activities are unlimited. . .loves sports, music, and things literary. . .conscientious worker, but enjoys a good time.

HE members of the Student Government Organization here at Colby include the entire student body, and they all have an opportunity to vote on articles and ideas proposed by the Student Government Council. This year, in addition to the primary duties which it always performs, Student Government planned many social functions. First came the formal Christmas dinner on December 15, the dining room looking very impressive with its decorations of red and green. Enjoyable also were the Sunday afternoon teas, held throughout the winter in the various dorms, where we all appreciated something warm to drink after an afternoon in the cold. The informal dance given the Friday night of Carnival week-end and all of its different spring activities help to make us realize that Student Govern- ment is really a vital part of Colby life.

HE second year of the Senior Counselor Program began with a meeting of the members of the group prior to the oflicial opening of the college. From experiences of last year, these girls were able to make plans for more helpful guidance of the new girls. Once a week Senior Group Meetings were held in the various dorms at which a Senior Counselor presided. Such topics as getting the most out of Colby, studying, Colby customs, and extra-curricular activities were pre- sented for discussion. Through these meetings, the transition between life at home and at college has been made easier, friendships facilitated, and the true spirit of Colby incorporated among the students. The Senior Counselors are on call at all times to answer any questions or to help in any problems which may arise throughout the year among the new girls in their group. l79l Y. W. C.

HE Young Women's Christian Association offers the student the op- portunity for development socially and intellectually through group work, and the chance to develop convictions in the field of religion. The division of the organization into commissions for Social Action, Peace, or Church and Worship allows members to follow special interests. Vesper services in the Y.W. Little Chapel, outstanding speakers, in- formal discussion groups around the fire, and student conferences help draw the girls closer together in their religious convictions to all of life. We, the members of the Young Women's Christian Association, unite in the desire to realize full and creative life through a growing know- ledge of God. We determine to have a part in making this life possible for all people.

It is the object of this organization to supervise a program of health, sports, and recreation. The A.A. upholds three outstanding traditions, which are: Mountain Ilay in the falh Clarnival in vvinter, and Bday Ilay in the spring. Besides these events vve sponsor open-house each rnonth at the lgodge, several dancesthroughouttheyear,andlnanyspomsevenw.

This council is made up of representatives from the student body and faculty members of the Physical Education Department. lS1l ik Blue Quill Ai-Li Sung,'Naomi Cheetham, Lucille Woolam, Barbara Mix. S an art exhibit is representative of the finest work of students in the Held of art, as a recital crystallizes the work of students in the field of music, the Blue ,Quill annually presents in compact literary form the achieve- ments of Colby students in the field of creative writing. All year typewriters tap out poems, stories, essays, descriptions, and plays to be tossed at the feet ofthe Bl1ee,Qulll staff, which is chosen from the undergraduate contributors by the staff of the previous year. Every offering is read, re-read, pencilled, and read again until it is re- jected or accepted as being Worthy of publication, Then comes the tiresome task of Word-counting, publisher consultations, and hnally there is another Blue Quill from the press.

NE day last October, seven very excited Seniors learned that they were to compose the COLBYAN staff. Dining at Seven Hearths with Mr. and Mrs. Thompson, they enthusiastically discussed plans for a unique yearbook that could rightfully be called the best yearbook ever. With little knowledge of the work in store for them, they conferred with the printer and engraver, who revealed many problems involved be- fore a yearbook could be completed. The great task of publishing such a book was accomplished in many steps-the pictures and copy gradually took their proper places. We sincerely hope you will enjoy this COLBYAN as much as we have preparing it. f83l 'WW Orchestra Bark Row: Frances Hallock, Anne Longley, Miss Leach, Ruth Dearborn, Sandi Burpee, Sylvia Woodman, Elizabeth Higgins, Marion Smith, Ruth Thompson. .S'craml Row: Juliette Conover, Priscilla Little, Margaret Garland, Nancy Weikel, Gloria Naisawalcl, Elizabeth Thomas, Martha Eagles, Barbara Ramsdell, Georgia Bayrd, Martha Vaitses.

The first performance of the year was a chapel program, which somewhat sur- prised the whole school. In February, came the annual combined concert with the Harvard University orchestra, alias the Pierian Soclality. We'll always remember their rendering of Jerome Kern's Showboat. Starting May Day week-end with a bang, the Prom concert on Friday night, varied slightly from the usual Pops concert, although there was still plenty of food to be had.

The Glee Club had one joint concert with the Dartmouth freshmen in the fall, in which Barbara Twitchell and Nancy Pierce were the soloists. Carnival week-end, they sang a return engagement at Hanover- letting music make us friends. In the spring, there was Colby night at Pops in Symphony Hall in Boston, closing with the singing of our Alma Mater to the accompaniment of the Boston Symphony Or- chestra. The year ended with the joint Commencement concert given by the orchestra and glee club. l85l Choir Bark row: Elizabeth Beach, Sibley Smith, Barbara Baker, Harriet Tillinghast, Jean Anderson, Margery Val- entine. .frmml raw: Marion Lister, Elizabeth Cooper, Mary Morrison, Marjorie Spencer, Priscilla Mayo, ,lean Porter, Nancy Pierce, Barbara Twitchell, Elizabeth Ayers.

This year it is larger than it has ever been before, having eighteen members. As has always been the custom, they contribute to the music in Chapel three days a week and oc- casionally sing in the New London Baptist Church on Sundays. At Christ- mas time their blended voices brought out the beauty and solemnity of Bach's Christmas Oratorio. In the Spring they broadcast from Boston, and there was also a concert after Easter, awaited with eager anticipation by us all. Thus this organization works to contribute to our enjoyment of music.

HE purpose of the Student Health Committee is to study, discuss, and present student needs and to investigate health problems brought up by the student body. This is done in cooperation with the Faculty Com- mittee on Health. The group assists in planning a Fall health program and in arranging the health orientation series for the following year. Letters are sent to other colleges to learn about their methods of dealing with health problems for since Colby's Student Health Committee is of fairly recent origin, it seems wise to proht by the experience other colleges have had along this line. v l187l Boot and Saddle Burk row: Kay Scott, Dorothy King.

ECAUSE of our love for horses and all things that are connected with them, we, the members of the Boot and Saddle Club, join together in a number of activities during the year which we hope will not only increase our knowledge of horses, but make us better horsewomen in every way. A few things which we love are moonlight rides, treasure hunts, sleigh rides, a trip to the Boston Horse Show, and a trip to the Upway Farms in Woodstock, Vermont. We all look to the annual Boot and Saddle party which is our winter activity. Probably the outstanding events of the year are the fall and spring horseshows sponsored by the Club. 1,r ik A,-I-is L 88 in Rouge Pot .-. . .., , -,yu R lr Bark raw: Barbara Mix. sCLYll1tlf010,'.IC2ll'l Watson, Dorothy King, Miss Brown, Phyllis SCl'lWV1lll5C,'lCZll1 Colburn.

Its purpose is to further the regular reading of a good news journal or journals on current international questions. At its meetings, which are held twice a month, each member must be prepared to ask con- structive questions and to contribute willingly to an intelligent discussion of the news. Additional readings on the countries involved enable the mem- bers to probe into sorne of the underlying causes of confhct betvveen na- tions and thus to gain a broader view of the world scene.
