S. Ironsides Dear Sooky: Heigh-ho! What say! Those are just a few of the expressions that I picked up in dear old England. I have been so interested in the Rogers hazardous coast-to-coast Austin ride that I have had time to think of little else. In other words I'm all a-twitter. The trip across was wonderful, due largely, no doubt, to the geniality of the stewardess, whose name, I recall, was Tice. Yes, my dear, Frances Shurnway is still carrying trays, but on a boat now. I was all agog to find that I was to be seated next to the ka-utest gentleman. Imagine my surprise when it turned out to be Claire Daney! She was traveling incognito, I'll have you know. She admitted that Betty Alter made a very effi- cient secretary, and that she could find no fault with the services of her valet, M amreen Armstrong. VVell, my dear, when we landed at Liverpool who should examine the baggage but Virginia Jaeger. She muttered something about perseverance being the quality most necessary for the efficient performance of her dutiesg but as far as I could see she had found no contraband articles except a few history books Ernestine Baker insisted on trying to smuggle. The American consul, Marguerite Haller, met me at the dock and drove me up to London, conducting me lirst to the American Embassy. VVe always did say that Ellen Chubb would go far. Marguerite explained that it was due to Ellenlr executive ability that she had progressed so, but I wonder if it wasn't her command of American slang that got her where she is. I had a great talk with Ambassador Chubb. She told me that Elizabeth Gill is the owner and operator of a fish hatchery on the Sahara Desert. Somehow I can't quite credit that. And what's more, my dear, it is whispered that none other than the Prince of Wales has gone Stark mad about our fair Virginia! Ellen also told me that Louise Segal is now chief observer at the Bok Singing Tower. Our Mary has just accepted a position as -gym teacher at dear old C. S. G. It is said that her commands in marching tactics are given in Latin. More Powerfsj to you, Mary. Fritzi Schueller, formerly well-known in C. S. G. dramatic and art circles, is now pleased to announce that after years of diligent study and research she has received her reward. She has been offered a position as stage hand with the Lamb Theatre at Shepard, Ohio. Her chief duty will be to separate the sheep from the goats, and she should fulfill the task well, due to her excellent powers of discrimination. l35l COLUMBUS SCHOOL for GIRLS Oh, and lest I should forget to mention it, the School QC. S. G., of coursej hopes to move to the Cassady Avenue property in the near future. At any rate, it is predicted that the Class of 1960 will graduate in Gladden Chapel. Meanwhile. my dear, 1,111 so thrilled I could shell peanuts! At a perfectly charming party the other afternoon Flops Garrard and Peggy Matlzer presented an Apache dance for our displeasure, both girls having had private lessons' from lone Beaton. They say that lane is astonishing Paris with her clever impersona- tious, and that her hog-calling talent, perfected during the years that the Y ran riot through the Beaton acres Qyou remember that noise they all used to make in their throats to express disgust or what-have-youj, has called her before royalty for demonstrations many times. Catherine Hough looks too cute for wordsg she has taken London quite by storm. I-Ier expert pole-sitting is putting all the English youths in a flutter. Sarah McKem'cr is having a terrible time managing Catherine, who now calls' herself Penelope, by the by, in spite of her family's' objectionsg she sways the poles so, poor Sarah complains. My dear, guess what! Flora Powell is a missionary in the South Sea Isles. Can you cope with it? They say she has devoted years of her life to converting -or trying to convert-Ann Lisle to wearing socks of a different color. But .tlmz is adamant: you see, she is the leader of the Reds in some dreadfully remote place on the shores of the Bflack Sea. Poor Nat Harvard is having a dreadful time! Right now she is advocating Free Speech in Babel. I met illiriani Seaton the other day. She has just returned from the town of Hatscap, where she manufactures Kentucky Derbies. Business is fine, says she. Virginia S rnith, I hear, is trying to get into the Senate, but as a side-occupa- tion she is still collecting biological specimens for Miss Alice's School for Select Young VVomen, whose motto is W'e will always be a Bayne to you . Poor Shcda'-ic has given up racketeering. She once lived in Gatsville, but has lately moved to Liverpool where she has at last found her life's work in the selling of collapsible perambulators fbaby buggiesj to Americans. She bought the establishment from Miary llfinans, who had long been awaiting an opportunity to retire in order to take over the Advice to the Lovelorni' column of the Payne Tribune. Can you bear it! On the way across the Channel we were accompanied by Polly Waist, who swam along beside the boat. Her manager, Bcity Briin, still has hope that some day Polly will make it. Until then they must content themselves with selling Fuller Brushes. !36l TOP-KNOT, 1931 Ruth Peuhorwood designs in Paris. She is still drawing those same straight lines, and puts them to good use in making sketches of fat. middle-aged matrons. These sketches are in great demand, needless to say. Miriam Francisco is writing a book on the Evils of Modern Art . She seems to be quite in earnest in exposing what she terms to be a fact-that all modern artists are insane, or at least mentally unbalanced. She should win favor among the Conservatives. llfary Lou DCV611'7li5lI, her press agent and a well- ltnown farm relief enthusiast, thinks the public is quite won over by Miriairfs line reasoning. Betty Malloy and her partner, Jane Marckwortll, spend most of their time modeling in Lztric Littlc's dress-making shop, although Janis Home for Aged Horses occupies' much of her interest, and Betty, they say, is coming along fine as announcer for Amos 'n' Andy jr. I ran into Katherine Kuhns the other day, and we had time for a three- minute chat. Katlzvriiie is being considered as a possible recipient of the Noble Prize for her speech on school aid, Suffering Student Relief . They tell me that Betty KFl'SllUiU is perfecting the art of dodging bullets in Chicago. Sally Mcnaul has just received three degrees' at Eton: C. O. D., B. Y. D., and P. D. Q. I always had an idea that those were diseases: but one never knows, especially in these days .... My dear, what do you knowl I was informed that Tecllrc Taylor has just completed a factory for the production of her latest invention. C ornclia thinks the world at large needs uplifting, and is manufacturing what she says will be bigger and better elevators fthe English, being frank, call them liftsj. Here is the latest report from Pistol: she has just finished her autobiography, entitled I-low I Overcame My Inferiority Complex . I see by the papers that Moyer and Company are building a suspension bridge over Alum Creek. Betty Ross is the instigatorg the poor dear got so tired of stepping across after the IQ3I Hood! Charlotte Patten is the new director of the Follies Bcrgcrcs in Paris, and she says that her most promising number for the forthcoming season is the harmony team, Fisher and Herron. The two song-birds also dance an Ode to Spring . Oh dear, these progressive people! Don't they absolutely set you on edge! You must write soon,-that is if that C. S. G. stationery you borrowed my money to buy is still holding out. Yours till the chandelier over the front stairway falls, SKIPPY I37 l COLUMBUS SCHOOL for GIRLS LAST WILL AND TESTAMENT OF THE SENIOR CLASS In accordance with ancient custom, we, the Class of 1931, do hereby devise and publish our Last Will and Testament, bequeathing to such as are worthy our sacred possessions and qualities for their use and beneht until that time when they in turn shall pass them on to their successors.

BETTY BRIBI, 1931 l42l IT E ff O2 UTIIIWIY SECTIIN ml I .'6 5 57 x9 K X I' XZ .ff ,- COLUMBUS SCHGOL for GIRLS SUMMER EVENING Prize Story HE stiiiing August evening had driven the families of the Street out to their porches where they rocked, too languid even to combat the onslaughts of mosquitoes. Staccato cries of neighborhood children playing Cops and Robbers , restless chirrings of crickets, and the occasional sleepy twitter of a bird sifted through the dusky twilight. Marjorie was entertaining an uneasy caller in his first long pants. Q 'I'he oldest Smith boy, said Marjorie's mother to her neighbor on whose porch swing she was sittingj The Harper baby set up a dismal wail from the new apartment house across the way. f I wish they'd chloroform it, growled Mr. Smith to his wife as he elevated his feet to the porch railing and lit a cigar.3 X Pk :ff A lamp glowed from behind one of the new apartment house windows. Behind the lamp sat Mrs. Harper. A faded blue kimono blotted with wilted purple pansies was draped loosely around her spare figure and her lank locks hung in a braid down her back. She was sitting at a desk with a letter spread before her, but she was not looking at it. She knew it quite by heart. Her chin was cupped in her hands and she was staring at the wall, and through it and be- yond it, with a fixed, burning gaze. The letter read 1 My dear Mrs. Harper: CThe hand was bold and rather illegible and the Harper was distorted so that it looked almost like another name? Concerning my last examination of you, I am afraid I can report nothing encouraging, but I believe you were prepared for that. I should judge however, that you have another year to live if you continue the treatments I have prescribed. Faithfully, James D. Miller. Oh, how, how, could she have known! She had admitted to Dr. Miller that she xvasn't particularly optimistic about the last examination-the sharp pains had become a little more frequent lately, but the worst outcome she had antici- pated was being sent to bed for several months. And now-a year to live! Only a year more of mending Henry's socks the acquired such 'preposterous holesj. of making I-Ienry's apple pies the so adored apple piesj, of laughing at his jokes that were not very funny! And there was the baby! She remembered vaguely that he had been crying a minute ago, but all was quiet now except for the shrill voices of the children playing Cops and Robbers and the persistent complaint l44l TOP-KNOT, 1931 of the crickets. Bups would grow up and forget her. Perhaps he would grow up to be a great musician, for when she sat down at the tuneless piano with him he joyfully plunged down on the keys with both fat, pink lists. The stark, desperate light which had given place to tenderness, returned to her eyes when she thought of the one short year she had in which to teach him to tell the truth and be a future law abiding citizen. She would keep this news from Henry, as she had the examinations. It would only worry him needlessly. Then Henry's familiar step sounded on the stair outside, and the door opened. As usual he stumbled over the baby's red truck and burst gaily into the room. I-le tossed her a yellow envelope. Honey, here's a telegram for you I found in the mail box downstairs. Say, you look all in. It's the heat I reck'n.,' Sarah Harper stood staring at it vacantly. Henry ran his finger around a moist collar and loosened his tie. VVhew, he gasped, it's pretty close in here. He retired to discard the collar. His voice, recounting the happenings of the day, trailed off. Sarah slowly tore open the telegram. It was from Dr. Miller. YOU HAVE RECEIVED LETTER INTENDED FOR MRS. HOPPER OF BURLINGTON STOP HOPE THIS HAS NOT INCONVENIENCED YOU STOP YOUR CONDITION BY LAST EXAMINATION GREATLY IMPROVED STOP MILLER Sarah Harper grew a little white and her eyes became very bright. She crushed the yellow paper in one hand, and the letter in the other. Then she laid the two on the hearth in a careful pile and touched a match to it. Henry reap- peared. Wl1at was in your telegram P he inquired.

BELL, 1932 l45l COLUMBUS SCHOOL for GIRLS THE ENGLAND OF THOMAS HARDY'S NOVELS HAT section of southern England known to the literary world as W essex, is a very vaguely defined region. Generally speaking, it takes in Wilts, Somerset, Hampshire, Berkshire and Devon. It also includes such out- posts as Oxford, VVindsor, and the north coast of Cornwall. VVessex, however, may be said to be almost identical with that aancient Saxon kingdom which in- cluded all England south of the Thames and west of the Sussex. Dorset and its county town of Dorchester lie in the very heart of the Hardy Country. It was near this region that the author was born, and during the latter part of his life he resided at Max Gate on the outskirts of Dorchester, which is the Casterbridge of his novels. The town stands above the river Frome, on the ridge of a hill. At its western extremity is the Roman amphitheatre of Maumbury. Hardy says that this ruin was to C asterbride what the Coliseum is to modern Rome. Structurally it is not similar to the Coliseum, but is formed by earth-works. lt was used by the Romans as an arena for their gladitorial combats, and has many tragic associations. Hardy tells about the intrigues which were carried on here it was seldom the meeting place for happy lovers. It was here that his characters, Susan and Henchard, made the reconciliation which was the prelude to so much misery and disaster. In Dorchester jail Boldwood and Marston were confined, and from it the Shottsford watchmaker of The Three Strangers made his escape along the Downs to Higher C rawstairs. Hardy was born in the village of Upper Bockhampton, east of Dorchester, in a small thatched cottage. His home stands on the edge of a wild, called Pid- dletown Heath in Lower Bockhampton, the setting of his short story, On the Western Circuit. f Nine miles to the north of Salisbury, or Malchester, stands Stonehenge on Salisbury Plain. These ancient blocks of stone seem to have been a Temple of the Sun, and were probably standing when the Romans first overran Britain. This was the destination of Tess and Angel C fare when they were fleeing justice after the murder of the sham D UrberviIlc. The night was as dark as a cave and a stiff breeze was blowing when they came out upon the solitudes of Salisbury Plain. For some miles they proceeded, when on a sudden it rose up before them. What monstrous place is this ? said Angel. It humsl she said. Harkenl The wind playing upon the edifice. produced a booming tone, like the note l45l TOP-KNOT, 1931 of some gigantic stringed harp It was indeed Stonehenge, a very Temple of the Winds . Wfinchester was the ancient capital of VVessex. It stands at the very edge of the country that Hardy has made famous, near to the New Forest, to which it is closely akin. Its cathedral is the longest and one of the most beautiful in England. In Winchester you may see, as described in Tess of the D'Urber'villes, the sloping high street from the west gateway to the mediaeval cross. As you follow the highway which leads out of NVinchester, you may look back and see against the sky the outlines of the prison. This has become a literary landmark, for it figures in the last scene of Tess of the D'Urber'zfilles. In only one novel does Hardy depart from Wessex for his setting. In A Pair of BI-ue Eyes he takes his reader to the north coast of Cornwall. Boscastle, a tiny port on the wildest part of a wild coast, is the stage of his tragedy. Castle Boterel, the cottage that lills the position of Bloornfs End, is to be seen. Passing it, we come to the house that figures as the Quiet ,Woman Inn. The ground back of this house slopes to the river, at what is described in The Return of the Native as Shadwater Weir. It is between Werham and Bere Reigs that Egdon Heath is located. Egdon is a combination of Wool Heath and Bere Heath, and it perhaps includes some other adjacent wilds. Hardy liked to imagine that some place in this very region may have been the heath of Lear, that traditionary king of Wessex. M ellstock. on the edge of the heath, is the rustic village that Hardy has described so intimately in Under the Greenwood Tree. In dipping down along the southern coast, Weymouth, or Bndrnouth, is one of the cities which commands our interest. This seaport has often styled itself the Naples of England. It was a great bathing resort in the time of George III. The town very clearly reflects its prosperity during that great era in its Georgian streets, lined with quaint shops and houses. This, then, was the Budmouth from which Eustacia Vye had come, and for which she longed. Another popular watering place along the coast is Bournemouth, the Sand-- bourne in Tess of the D'Urberzfil'les. It is a city full of villa paradises, palatial hotels, and fashionable shops, and it is one of the main gates of entrance to Wessex. A place with an atmosphere very different from that of Bournemouth is the university town of Oxford, or Christrninster. This is the northernmost post' in the Hardy Country, and it forms the background for the unhappy history of Jude the Obscure. Salisbury, a cathedral town, is the scene of a part of this novel, and of the name he gives it. Bocastle is a place of commanding picturesque- l47l COLUMBUS SCHOOL for GIRLS ness. Its Cornish atmosphere makes it, in the romantic mind of the novelist, a dreamy and mysterious region. In Hardy's own words, The ghostly birds, the pall-like sea, the frothy wind, the eternal soliloquy of the waters, the bloom of the dark purple cast that seems to exhale from the shoreward precipices, in them- selves lend to the scene an atmosphere like the twilight of a night vision . On sunny days, the sea is in color something between an opal and ,a sapphire, when the sands of Trebarrow-the Trebavrwitli Strand of the novel-shine golden in contrast with the dark jutting headlands. Thomas Hardy has glorihed VVessex, for it is through his writings that its charm and beauty have become known far and wide. This country owes a debt of gratitude to Hardy for the fame that it now enjoys. To those who have read his books, the whole region seems peopled with his characters. Even the tiniest village takes on vast importance in the eyes of the reader because Hardy has men- tioned it in his writings. It is therefore a joyful discovery to the Hardy lover to learn that, although the ashes of the great novelist are buried in NVestminster Abbey, his heart, at his own request, has been interred in the grave of his first wife, in Mellrtork churchyard on Egdon Hfaflz. Thus Hardy and his Wessex are linked together to the end. MARY Powaks, 1931 VVEEDS Rain-cool, gray, pelting arrows!

'Creamy lace fichu fastened in front with a huge cameo, pink mits meeting the puff sleeves at the elbow, tiny golden curls falling from under a bonnet of gay flowers, she made an alluring picture against a background of ruffled parasol. Sarah was deeply troubled. She was in every way as line a person as Alice Parsons. Yes, she was convinced of that. Only one glance in the mirror was necessary to know her beauty. As for accomplishments-she played the harp well, for had not Professor Thompson presented her in a recital? Furthermore, she was a champion at croquet, and a much-sought-after partner at every dance. Yet, she dare not set one tiny foot within the Parsons' home! Not' that the beauty of the stately mansion, which was by far the most elaborate and elegant in the city, challenged her, it was the social prestige that such an entrance re- quired. Sarah had worked, argued, and planned in vain. She had attempted a last scheme and it had failed. Now she was through trying. She stopped at the corner as the Parsons' carriage, a high black coach, drawn by white horses, passed by, clattering over the cobblestone street, then she Hung her head back. crossed the street, and continued on her walk into the open country beyond Elm- hurst. :sf if Pk Pk It was the spring of IQ28. A school-girl clad in the conventional dark blue skirt, white middy blouse, red tie, and wearing a tight beret over a bunch of wild curly locks, swung out of Parsons Place. She walked briskly but seemed to be absorbed in thought. This was one of Sally's more serious moments. She was thinking of her future school days. Had anyone in her class said, Sally, you're not really going away to boarding school. are you?', she would have answered strongly in the affirmative. She would have argued long and convinc- ingly about the advantages and joys of boarding school life, and she would have complained about the old. musty buildings of Parsons Place. But Sally would have known also at the same time that she would return to Parsons Place. In the first place, there was Grandma. Grandma who had always approved her plans and hopes, who had always given her every desire, and whom she knew to be devoted to her, Grandma had asked her to stay at Parsons Place. She had not only asked her to stay, she had set her lips firmly, and in a queen like man- ner had commanded her to stay. It was so unlike Grandma to be anything but l49l COLUMBUS SCHOOL for GIRLS dear and charming, that Sally knew she must obey, and obey without question. Once she did ask why Grandma was so interested in Parsons Place, but all Grandma had said was to satisfy a foolish fancy of mine, dear, but most of all to have you with me for two more years. :ee wk :af af It was the spring of 1930. A very tiny old lady wearing a lavender silk dress stood under one of the giant trees of Parsons Place. Sarahfs heart beat wildly as she watched the scene before her. On the stately stone steps under the shadow of the great stone pillars stood the graduating class, and in the center of the first row, taking her place as president of her class, as leader of her School. stood Sally-Sally in pure white chiffon and carrying an armful of blood red roses. Sally was smiling as two great tears rolled down her lovely cheeks-tears for her School-for silly as it might be, she did worship the old place. Then as taps began, and Sally stood staring straight ahead trying to force back the tears. the smooth white cement of Parsons Avenue suddenly became rough gray cobble- stone. A young woman walked slowly down the street, her stiff pink taffeta skirt rustling as she moved. Creamy lace fichu fastened in front by a huge cameo, pink mits meeting the puff sleeves at the elbow, tiny golden curls falling under a bonnet of gay flowers, she made an alluring picture against a background of ruffled parasol. She stopped at the gate as if desirous of entering. Sally im- pulsively reached forward, then as she heard herself singing, VVe are the class I-9-3-OH, the vision entered the gate. As Sally blinked back the tears again, she saw Grandma-standing where a moment before the vision had stood. She was making no attempt to steady her lips, trembling with joy, or to hold back her tears-her tears of pride. RIARY :XNN LITTICK, 1932 F U T I LIT Y Qfipologies to R. L. S.j VX'hen I was down at C.

I was ushered into a small room adjoining the office of the Governor. This, I suppose, was the office of the Governors secretary. Here I was told to sit down and wait, that the Governor would be i11 his officein just a few minutes. So, seating myself, I set 1ny mind to work on what I would say to Governor VVhite, and just as I was in the midst of developing a good question in my mind, I saw the gentleman who had ushered me into the room, and who was now seated opposite me at his desk, rise and start toward the neighboring office. As he entered the room, he announced me to the Governor. I had thought while I was waiting that I would be terribly nervous when in his presence. but quite to the contrary I felt at ease, because he seemed to be so human. Upon entering, we shook hands, and introducing myself further, I said, I think you knew my grandfather-Henry Bohl, who was formerly from Marietta P Yes, I did know him quite well. I then went over and sat in one of the six chairs surrounding his desk, and said. I have been told that I have just two minutes in which to interview you. and that's a very short time. But to begin, can you tell me of your boyhood in Mari- etta ? My boyhood? Well, I wasn't born in Marietta, but in Pennsylvania, where I later attended school. I sold papers as a boy, and had a good appetite. VVhen did you take up politics ? I was elected to the Legislature in nineteen - - - five. yes. nineteen-tive. I knew your grandfather then.

I was here in the Legislature in nineteen- live, and then again in nineteen-nineteen-no, nineteen-twenty, at the Executive Mansion with Governor Cox. You know Columbus has changed a lot since 1920, and even more since I905. NYhat about the A. I. U. Tower, what do you think of it P It certainly is a beautiful sight, he said as he turned in his swivel chair and looked out the window at that structure.

I often walk by there. and I have noticed that they forgot to clean the last post on the south-east cornerf, You spotted that post did you ?' Yes, but they have cleaned it now. That house used to belong to the Linden- bergs, you know. My sisters used to play out there when the house belonged to that family. But I'm afraid that I am keeping you too long. What did you say this was for-your school work F Yes. You see each of us has to interview someone, so I chose the Governor. Thank you so much, Governor White, for giving me some of your time. But, as the paper boy was then at his door, I cloubt if he heard the thank you . So, after this friendly conversation with Governor White, I left the State House, feeling quite relieved, I assure you. BETTY SCHULLER, IQ34 ULIFE- F Oh!

The play, A Mistake at the Manor, was given once in Lower School chapel and once in Upper School chapel, it was a success both times. The story is taken front a true incident in the life of Oliver Goldsmith. Both as a young boy and as a man Goldsmith was quite headstrong, and, as a result, was always getting into trouble. On this oc- casion he went to the manor of Squire Featherstone, and, thinking it was an inn, ordered the master, mistress, and servants about until Grady, the irate butler, pointed out his mistake in a flare of temper. The part of Goldsmith was acted Ivy Josephine Godfrey, and other girls who had parts were Betty Shope, Jeanne Halliday, Marian Bobb, Virginia Poston, and Keturah O'Brien. The play was directed by Lucile Hanford, who was backed by good costume and stage com- mittees. It was quite well doneg we hope to see more good plays given by the class of '35, ELIZABETH DAVIS, IQ35 l53l COLUMBUS SCHOOL for GIRLS TO A MOUSE Oh, little tiny, grayish mouse XVho lives inside our nice old house, NYhy is it when you come around You make that little creepy sound?

I think this book is very thrilling, and I'm sure everybody will want to read it, and will enjoy it as much as I enjoyed it.

The rooms are filled with most interesting pictures, both modern and old. The people of Columbus are very proud of this line art gallery. ANNE MIN NEMAN, 1937 A MGDERN PICTURE Last week we walked to the new Art Gallery. There was one modern picture of wild horses which I liked very much. It was mostly in blues and greens, except for the horses, which the artist had painted a crimson red. They stood out vividly against the background of trees.

VV'e are looking forward to joining in the activities and pleasures of the four upper classes, especially the athletic competitions, the clubs to which we will be eligible, and the annual Christmas Dinner. Our class projects of carrying trays and selling pads have been enthusiastically carried on, and have been a great success financially. We have been most fortunate in winning from the game sevenths the hockey and baseball games, and in tying the Games Carnival.

We have nothing to regret concerning the past year, except, perhaps, that our class project was not entirely successful, that we had to let the juniors uphold the honor of the Red Team in sports, and that we had a few too many tags and with-held O.

Last fall as the year stretched out before us, the words of our song seemed to express our sentiments exactly. Now, however, we eagerly await that day in September 1931 when we shall enter the school portals as full edged juniors, ready to discard our kittenish ways and childish viewpoints. Perhaps then we will be ab-le to take life easy and order the lowly sophomores and freshmen about in a Grand-Duchess-or should we say Grand-Junior-way! Our ranks already number over two score, and include such stellar lights as artists, composers, authors, and athletes of all sizes and descriptions. One of our most noteworthy projects during the course of the year was the staging of an honest-to-goodness circus, complete from a chattering monkey to the crackliest l72l MEMBERS TOP-KNOT, 1931 of peanuts, all for the benefit of the seniors. As an interlude to circus life we endeavored to tingle their spines by means of Booth Tarkington's The Ghost Story . We might add that some of the never-polite and always plain-spoken seniors called our efforts a fine and dandy party. Although we fared not so well in athletic contests we maintain an optimisitc outlook and hope for success in these two remaining years. We have done our share in the upkeep of the school, for it is we who are responsible for the housing of stray articles in the Pound, and quelling the appetites of the hungry Ten Thousand in luncheon line. Both of these projects pay well, even in this period of depression, and we hope by graduation to have amassed a fortune which can supply the new school with a swimming pool.

It has been a wonderful, delightful year for us, only one tag, few with-held O. K. cards, near success in hockey, and a winning basketball team. Then too, we hope, our party to the seniors was a success. XYe ourselves enjoyed giving itg and perhaps i3I derived as much pleasure in attending it. At any rate we have the satisfaction of knowing that we did our best. And those words did our best might well be applied to our whole junior year, for we have tried hard. Let's keep up the good work, ,32, and may we do better than l'best as seniors! l74l l2l.l2.-KYOR S M vm.

Scrollers ? you say. Isnt that the club that puts out the SCROLL and the TOP KNOT P I am appalled at your ignorance. No, my dear, Scrollers has this year been an honorary club, and it's no empty honor to be a member of it, believe you me! We have wonderful teas fthe best foodlj when we take in new mem- bers, who are chosen for their ability to write, their dependability as contributors to the school publications, and their interest in things literary. Did I hear you say you would like to be a member? Get busy next fall and write for the first SCROLL! Last fall, Scrollers unselhshly gave over the publication of the SCROLL and TOP-KNOT to the student body of the School, believing that, as school publications, they were neither written nor edited by a sufficiently large or representative group of girls. A new Literary Staff was formed, consisting largely of the members of l76l TOT'-KNOT. 1931 Scrollers, since they were naturally the girls niost capable and interested. Scroller officers continued to serve on the Staff. VVe do not feel that this new plan is entirely successful, since interest in the Scroll seems chiefly to be confined within one small group,-the Scrollers. VVe have therefore enlargerl our Club. and are hoping to resume responsibility of the puhlication of the SCR!!-l.L, but not of the 'llUl'-ININUI' next year, since we feel the need of a project to keep alive interest in Scrollers, ancl to make it again more active in the School.

The cost of the cuts for the pictures and designs in this Top-Knot alone runs well into the hundreds of dollars. The School demands that there be pictures in its TOP- KNOT, you know, and the money for them must be forthcoming. The Business Staff has managed to furnish funds for publication in almost an Afice-i1z-DV011de1'- land fashion. The enthusiasm of its members has proved to be an HOpen Sesame to Ali Baba's cave of riches. Two years ago the Business Staff was organized to take from the Scrollers, who formerly published the SCROLL and 'TIOP-KNCJT, the burden of managing the business end of publication which they bore in addition to their worries as editors and chief contributors. This year a Literary Staff truly representative of the School was chosen, and with it the Business Staff is joined to form the Pupil Publication Board. I78l TOP-KNOT. 1931 The Business Staff has functioned wonderfully well. There are twice or three times as many advertisements in both publications as there were when the Serollers were trying to manage the business as well as the literary end. lt is no easy task to accost a man of the business world to ask him to advertise in our school paper . Too often he says that all the money he has allotted to adver- tising in his budget is used up. lt is a discouraging business, this collecting of Mads . The Staff has felt keenly the ehfeets of the linaneial depression, hut we have procured even more advertisements than last year's Stal? managed to pro- eure. 1Ye feel that we have made our contribution to the standard the Sekou. and Toe-KNoT have achieved this year.

VVe have continued our sponsorship of the Little Gallery, and our membership in the American Federation of Arts. Exhibitions in the Little Gallery have included the works of Mabel DeBra King, David Snod- grass, Annette St. Gaudens, Mary -Cecil Allen, and Yeteve Smith. Mrs. King's water colors were shown here for the first time, they were later exhibited in VVashington, D. C., and in New York City. One of her paintings which we enjoyed most won the Baltimore VVater Color Prize this year. Mr. Snodgrass' work was exceedingly clever, and it excited much interest among the girls. The hrst of three teas given during the year for our exhibitors was held in his honor at Parsons Place. Mrs. St. Gaudens, charming statuettes, medallions, and small pieces of pottery quite won our hearts. I Pittori brought Miss Mary Allen, a well-known Australian artist, authoress, and lecturer on modern art to Columbus from New York City. She spoke at the Little Theatre l30l TOP-KNOT, 1931 of the Columbus Gallery of Fine Arts under our auspices, and quite charmed her audience with her comments on the Howald Collection. A reception was given in her honor by Mrs. McClure at Parsons Place, with I Pittori assisting. The last exhibit of the year was of the work of Yeteve Smith, a prominent Co- lumbus artist and President of the Columbus XVater Color Society. Thus I Pittori has been one of the most active clubs in the School, and has made a large contribution to the development of art appreciation among the students.

Later in the year controversy concerning the collaboration of the Columbus Academy with the Club in the presentation of three one-act plays was taken up with great gusto. The culmination of all the varied and fiery arguments was the production on March fourteenth of the following plays: A Toast NVe Can Drink by Stokes McCune, The Flattering XVord by George Kelly, and 'Op-O-Me-Thumb by Fenn and Price. The scarcity of available tickets several weeks before the per- formance was certainly indicative of the success of the plays. The excellence of last year's performance was equalled if not surpassed, a feat that seemed im- possible a year ago. A great deal of the success' of the evening was due un- doubtedly to the fine cooperation and assistance of the pseudo-professional actors borrowed from the Academy. It is to be hoped that the Columbus Academy boys E82 l TOP-KNOT, 1931 will agree to assist again next year, since they have proved to be quite a drawing card. The smoothness of the performance may be largely attributed to the effl- ciency of the production staff, that group of hard-working, long-suffering mem- bers who so seldom receive their full share of the reflected glory. On Library Day, April twenty-first, Pyramus and Thisbe' was repeated from the 1930 production, with the original cast enacting it. A farewell tea, to be given during Commencement VVeek, is being planned, at which time new members are to be initiated and the senior members will make their last appearance before With- drawing into the dark shades of the Used-to-Be's.

E371 COLUMBUS SCHOOL for GIRLS GLEE CLUB We have heard that the lovely QU sounds that have issued forth from the dining-room every Tuesday afternoon have aroused the envy of those members of the School who are not fortunate enough, or are not possessed of sufficient energy, to join the Glee Club. But it is doubtful if we could accommodate them, even if they desired to join usg for Glee Club is so popular that this year our Constitution was amended to increase the membership limit. Everyone knows that practice makes perfect . We members of Glee Club feel that our faithful attendance every Tuesday afternoon has proved to the School the truth of this old adage, for under Mr. Nichols' direction we have made much progress. We have brought our talents to the attention of the public three times this year. Our first entertainment, if I may be so bold as to call it such, was given f33l TOP-KNoT, 1931 for the pleasure of the guests at the Christmas Dinnerg we sang many of the traditional Yuletide hymns and old Christmas ballads. On Library Day, at the request of the children of the Lower School, we sang Hayden's Toy Symphony , accompanied by the toy orchestra. It is natural that amateur performers should not always be satisfied with their productions, and so it was with us on this oc- casion. Therefore, determined to present the very best performance ever given by the C. S. G. Glee Club, we were at our best on the evening of the Song Contest in june. We hope that our audience derived as much pleasure from hearing our programme as we did in preparing it. We have learned that there are few things more inspiring than choral singing.

At the appointed hour we gather, the blind, the halt, the lame, to discuss the burning questions of the day with vehemence and occasional disregard for Roberts' Rules, despite objec- tions from the Chair. Material for discussion of the Indian problem, unem- ployment, and like subjects, is gathered from Time, The Literary Digest, and Uforld News. The argument often waxes fierce, as we most emphatically do not agree on all subjects, and since we are young, each believes that her own theory is the best. During these discussions the well-known talent commonly possessed by all the seniors, that of being able to talk and to listen to at least three other people talking at the same time, is employed to advantage. At one meeting I90l TOP-KNOT, 1931 Teenee Taylor showed some very interesting movies she had taken while on her Xlecliterranean cruise.

S. G. ATHLETE Scftember 26 There couldn't have been a day more perfect for the YVelcome Party at the Farm! Everyone was there, feeling fine. The big event of the day was the elec- tion of team captains, and imagine my excitement when I was nominated! But that thrill was only temporary, as Ellen Chubb got all the Gold's votes, and the Reds, in confab on the other side of the hockey field, supported Lois Brim. No fooling, I was simply dead after tearing round all afternoon, running relays. playing dodgeball, baseball, ez' Cetera, for team points. October 6 Hockey training started today. No candy, no food in between meals, and last but by far the worst, bed on Friday at ten P. M. and at eleven on Saturday night, with an occasional special permission to stay out till twelve on a wry special occasion! Sounds like Sweets to the sweet, farewell! Farm work started in earnest last Monday, and from the looks of things we have an excellent chance to beat Qakwood, for there's a wealth of good hockey material. I just know I'll never make the team! October 25 Golds beat the Reds in the first hockey game of the season by a score of 7-I. Vile had our pictures taken for the Dispatch the other day, and was I ex- cited! They took one of me running up and down the field in pursuit of an elusive hockey ball, and what should I do but trip! just falling for publicity, you old News Hound! If I can't dribble without falling over my feet, can I hope to make the team? NOZ'C71lb0l' I5 At last, at last! I thought this day would never come! VVe had dinner at the School with the Oakwood team last night. They all surely are nice and it was great fun playing with them. It's too bad both teams can't win a game, as a tie is so unsatisfactory. We were all completely overcome and overjoyed when the final whistle blew, and we found ourselves the winners by the small margin of one goal. It was a marvelous game, and we enjoyed every second of it. l95l COLUMBUS SCHOOL for GIRLS E961 TOP-KNOT, 1931 November 24 The last day of farm work! The seniors beat a heavily handicapped junior team by a small margin. It sleeted and snowed and rained during the entire game, but the seniors had an hilarious time kidding Biddle in spite of the weather. The Golds beat the Reds the other day, thereby winning the series. December I8 Christmas Dinner tonight, but no gold hockey balls! The Varsity team had a reunion at Chubb's a week ago last Sunday, and tried to talk Miss Carey into getting them for us, bu to no avail, for she was firm. Instead, all we received for our third and fourth years on Varsity were little insignificant maroon-colored felt chevrons! Basketball practice started the sixth, and I've almost died getting up these Saturday mornings to go over to that cold New Building, when I'd so much rather stay in my warm, cozy bed. February I2 Here it is, February, and almost two months since I've written a line. Lots has happened: we took up basketball again on january tenth, right after vaca- tion, and have been hard at it ever since. The Red-Gold foul shooting contest started about a week ago, and some of the people participating are good ! The class tourney, which promises to be interesting, got under way yesterday with the juniors and seniors defeating the freshmen and sophomores respectively. February 20 Our crack C. S. G. Varsity downed a fighting Alumnae team this afternoon. It was some game! Last Monday the second round of the class tournament re- sulted in victories for the juniors and seniors. March 5 Senior-junior championship game, in which the juniors played a great game, defeating their opponents 26-24! As usual, 1931. was slow in the take-off. March 2 3 Hurrah and a couple of tigers! The Golds finally staged a come-back and proved their superiority by downing the Reds in a fast and furious game to win the basketball series. In the second game, played on March seventeenth, we came through to win by one basket, but we all thought it was luck, and that we didn't have a chance to win again. But when we beat them again today in the greatest l97l ' COLUMBUS SCHOOL for GIRLS E981 TOP-KNOT, 1931 blood-and-thunder battle of the year, we decided we were pretty good after all. I wonder that any of us have a nerve or a sane thought left! All I can say is that it was simply swell. UUNHHH! In my excitement about basketball I forgot to mention the Posture Exhibit. It's something new in the School, and I'm sure all the mothers approve it, but I'm not so sure about those whose posture is exhibited. Personally, I prefer white bloomers and crinkly ties, white tennis shoes, et al., to black bathing suits. April 16 Went to the Farm today for the first time since last fall. It seemed good to get out in the wide open spaces again, and Hfrolic o'er the green . I hear they're going to have all sorts of field events this year,--javelin, shot-put, base- ball and basketball throw, fifty yard dash, and I don't know what all. I think it's a great idea. In addition, deck tennis, volleyball, Badminton, horseshoe pitch- ing, and archery are popular. Baseball is coming along fine. I tried everything this afternoon, and I know every muscle in my body will creak tomorrow morn- ing. May I Tennis tournaments-both singles and doubles-started today. I wonder wh0'll win this year. The finals are to be played on Field Day, May twenty- first, along with the finals in all the field events, the archery tournament, and the final class baseball game. The seniors have donated a cup to be presented to the individual high scorer on School Day. May II The seniors beat the sophomores 31-3 in baseball this afternoon. Maybe we'll have a chance to beat the juniors on Field Day, since they beat the fresh- men by a measly 28-6 score,-that is, if figures don't lie. I've been thinking about the tennis tournament, too, and I have a feeling that the singles are going to Louise Shedd, and the doubles to the Shedd-Garrard combination. VVe'll have to wait and see, though. Since I'm such a busy person, as are all seniors at this time of the year, I doubt if I'll have time to make any more entries in this diary of mine. It surely has been a job, keeping it 3 but maybe I'll enjoy going over it when I'm old and gray, and will grin a toothless grin when I count the number of times the seniors and the Golds won. Dear, dear, what a busy year it has been! l99l COLUMBUS SCHOOL for GIRLS ATHLETIC OFFICERS Varsity Hockey Captain-NATALIE HOWARD Varsity Basketball Captain-ANN LISLE Gold Team Captain-ELLEN CHUBB Red Team Captain-Lois BRIM CLASS HOCKEY CAPTAINS Senior-BE1'r'Y ALTER Sophomore-JULIA WINGER f1l7li0T-ELLEN BIDDLE Freshman-JANE FARRAR CLASS BASKETBALL CAPTAINS Senior-ANN LISLE Sophomore-SYLVIA JONES fll1l1'0l'-LUCY ELLEN LAMB Fnfshma-n-JANE FARRAR CLASS BASEBALL CAPTAINS SC1'li01'-FLORENCE GARRARD Sophomore-PHYLLIS Scorr fU1li01'-FRANCES HAMILTON Freshman-BETTY SCHUELLER H001 TOP-KNOT, 1931 THE TEAMS As the TOP-KNOT goes to press, we face three interminably long weeks of sus- pension before the Great Question of the Team Cup will be decided. As we write, we wonderg as you read, you know! We've thought of consulting numeral- ogists, palmists, graphologists, mediums,-even Evangeline Adams,-and all the other mystics who claim to be able to divulge the secrets the Future holds for us , we wanted to know the outcome not only so that it might be recorded in this ToP- KNOT as a mere fact, but also so that our own curiosity might be satisfied. But we finally decided that it would be more fun to wait,-we might miss that fa- miliar prickly sensation that runs like chilly lingers up and down our spinal column before the presentation of the Cup. A secret or a surprise is no fun unless it's a real one! The very fact that we cannot even predict which team will be the winner shows how close the competition has been. It's been a great year for the Reds and the Golds! The good-natured rivalry between us has been as keen as ever. The Golds have managed to win most of the athletic contests, but the Reds more than evened the score last fall, at least, by their scholarship and fine conduct record, thereby winning the cup for the Hrst half of the year. Again, Golds, it's the little things that count, you see! The Golds have won the basketball series and the Song Contest this spring, howeverg and although Field Day and the baseball game are yet to take place, they feel they have at least an even chance of winning. It is our private opinion that the juniors would rather like to see the Golds' win, since they can estimate their feelings of about this time next year. Quite a jumble of wishes and desires for us all! So many of the schools and camps throughout the country which have ath- letic systems similar to our own are discarding team and class competition as a bow to the principles of progressive education. We sincerely hope that C. S. G. will not follow this lead, since we feel that the benefits derived from team rivalry far outweigh its detriments. VVhat girl cannot wax enthusiastic over the merits of her team! Perhaps there are a few, but are they the people that matter? Teams, we believe, make a fine contribution to C. S. G. life, and to the Spirit of the School.
