Connecticut College - Koine Yearbook (New London, CT)

Text from Pages 1 - 194 of the 1940 volume:

1940 Moonlighr Sing N nineteen hundred and cighteen, the first yearbook of Connecticut Col- lege appeared. Koing, it was entitled, to solidify in words chat quality of de- mocracy which is the essence and the spirit of the college. Every year, as the school has matured, with new philoso- phies of education, with increasing so- cial activities, with constantly growing traditions, Komnk has been a record of this growth. e Now, in nineteen hundred and forty, Komvg has come of age. This, our yearbook, is the twenty-first edition. And the twenty-one candles on its birth- day cake, are, we believe, symbolic not only of our many experiences here, but also of the significant progress Con- necticut has made during our college days. Traditions, faculey, students, even our daily life, all have been out- standing contributors to that unfor- getable period of four years. One by one, they have lighted a candle on the cake until, before us, the twenty-one shine radiantly. o The tradition which is, for us, first in importance as well as in order of time, is Moonlight Sing. When we were Freshmen, and were, as yet, unoriented in new surroundings, the Sing was, per- haps, the strongest factor in giving us a feeling of unirty as a class, and as mem- bers of a student body. Who will forget Good Evening, M.. Moon, Moon, Moon that first Sing when the scniors, formed in a black line on the wall, greeted us with 'Good evening, Mr. Moon, Moon, Moon? ' o Impatiently we waited for that evening at the end of our Junior year when the seniors would perform the ritual of passing on the wall to us. When the evening did arrive we discovered that fulfillment was greater than anticipation. We became aware of the deep friendship we were sharing. In our turn, the wall has been passed on to the class of Forty-One, but we will remember always those peaceful nights with blending voices and a full moon. Upbolding Wisdom's Hallowed Name e It is the faculty that sets the true pace for the advance of a college, and gives a college its meaning and purpose. Therefore the flame of the second candle comes from Connecticut's faculty. Although our mortives were many in pursuing a college education, the basic ones were the desire for greater knowledge and the wish to become more mature and intelligent adultes. To those professors who have patiently helped us and have generously given of their own knowl- cdge, we must ever be grateful. But there is more than gratitude in our relationship; there is the strong and lasting bond of amity. e During our Freshman week, when we were bewildered and unsure of ourselves, our Faculty Advisors came to our res- cue, helping us to select courses best suited to our needs. Then the time ap- proached for us to choose our Major fields. Again the professors, by giving us some insight into the scope and mean- ing of different fields, advised us well. In the many classes we have attended they have helped us to use our minds, and have instructed us without dogmat- ic indoctrination. And both in and out of the classroom we have had the privilege of knowing them as per- sonalities.

Girls girls everywhere. Dorms swelling with eager yet Nervous ten- uncertain faces. Excitement. sion . . . The Freshman class, that yputhful, enthusiastic unit, was materializing. e Wec were proud to be a part of the two hundred and nine new admittances. Gazing at the campus with its grey stone buildings, we wondered what was ahead of us in the four years to come. We were a little in awe of our House Juniors, friendly but self- assured. We surveyed our rooms with specu- lative eyes, puzzling inwardly as to how we'd ever find appropriate places for our flock of and knick-knacks. We essential pictures sighed with relief when that first tense mo- ment was over and we could mingle in aban- don with the verbal Where do you come from's and Do you know so-and-so's . e In whirl-wind fashion, before the home-sick pangs could prick our illusory bal- loon of novelty and excitement, Freshman Week overtook us with its round of meetings, faculty teas, receptions, and picnics. We stoicly anticipated rain as the inevitable. Hadn't the New London weather always attempted to deflate the spirits of the frosh'? But clear weather was our reward; we knew our college first chrough the glow of sunshine rather than the gloom of rain. Cheered by it, we could delight even more in our discovery of the congeniality of the Faculty, the under- standing of our House Juniors. e Almost before we realized it, the upper classmen had returned, the hectic period of registration was over and classes began. Qur first college classes! With trepidation we entered those doors to face the reality of work! Our First Class Meeting' 32 New Haven Calling. e Nort long after we had been strug- gling with the new responsibilities of studies, the Sophomores entertained us at a party in the gym, with small group parties afterwards in their dorms. We drank cokes in the best college fashion and talked over our numerous impressions of school. The party was a de- light and a relief, as we had lived in mingled dread and anticipation of the much talked about initiation that Freshman had formerly 33 Is it for me, Mr. Barrie? ' endured bravely. e Then the well- known 'C Quiz loomed ahead and there was a last-minute rush for the celebrated lictle white book to learn the rules and standards of C. C. We performed an extra- special feat by passing the test unanimously! e Thanksgiving vacation came and went, and wich its conclusion we held our first class meeting ro clect class officers. Teal Middleton won the honor of Class President, and under her were Nancy Crook, Viee- President; Marjoric Edwards, Secretary; Jean Wallace, Treasurer; Franny Healy, Social Chairman; Barbara Batchelor, Song Leader; Mary Lou Shoemaker, Cheer Leader. At later meetings Barbara Dillon was elected as We remain undaunted by the 'New responsibilities of studies. Twas the night before Xmas'vacation Chairman of the Banner Committee, Ashie Watson as Athletic Association Representa- tive, Hildegard Meili and Mardianne Dinkey as Student Faculty Forum Representatives, and Mary Enequist as Class Historian. e At Soph Hop week-end our social position gained its first creditable recoghition with the usual permission to attend thHe Tea Excuse for insommnia AL . e LS h O Dance. There was the excitement of dates and evening plans and the fun of watching the lucky Freshmen, chosen to be waitresses, de- part for the Hop in their red and white cos- tumes. e The days sped toward Christmas vacation bringing excitement that only an- ticipation can incite. The night before vaca- tion there was the unforgetable feeling of peace and beauty, created by Christmas Pageant and the Candle Lighting Service, intermingling with the fun of serenading the upperclassmen and placing a wreath on Presi- E xtra-curricular dent Blunt's door. Of course, true to tradi- tion, we all made a point of passing the night in thinking up ways to keep us from going to bed! e Three weeks later, supposedly rested from wvacation, we encountered our first major crisis, Mid-Years! Both our minds and our dispositions were taxed. Hardly had we recovered from this period when we found ourselves in the academic throes of all Fresh- man-source themes! We'll not soon forget 34 those tormented hours with overwhelming piles of books and reading notes haunting our every thought! e But our spirits were given a needed stimulant by Mid-Winter Formal, the dance that webeing able to attendfelt gave our social position its greatest recognition. Among the crazy vari-colored bunnies skiing all over the walls at precarious angles, we reveled in our social advancement. Qur more fortunate Classmates 35 Vicarious pleasure now, but next year- o Within the next two weeks was the first Basketball game at which we marched to our class Marching Song, written by Barbara Batchelor, for the first time, and pre- sented our class Banner, designed by Barbara Dillon. o Time rushed by and it was the day of Junior Banquet. Our class entered the Mo- hican Hotel en masse to serenade our Junior Sisters. A few days later we were homeward Mary A. Lemon, President of the Classof 42 bound for Spring vacation, but soon that too, was over. Competitive plays were held after our return, and then, the greatest eyent for us as Freshmen, our Freshman Pageant, was un- folded amidst the beauty of late $pring. As May drifted into June, we entered our last event, Competitive Sing. Our fifst college year was ending; we couldn't believe it. Finals engulfed us. We found ourselves living through them with more coherence than we had at Mid-Years. o Now Freshman year is over. We will look back on it with nostalgia for past happi- ness, then forward to Sophomore year with a wonder of coming things. e With not even a drop of rain nor a gust of wind, The Hurricane Class' began its Sophomore year. Although the weather llege itself provided abundant elty. There were storms of was calm, co excitement and nov questions and gales of laughter heard every- where on the quad. At Emily Abbey, the new cooperative house, a dozen of our classmates were busy dodging workmen, arranging furni- ture, and unpacking. Yet Emily Abbey, with its crisp whiteness, was only one of four new buildings. While not settling, gossiping, or putting up pictures, we dashed to see Palmer Auditorium, Frederick Bill Hall, and Mary Harkness Chapel. Deep down inside we were glad to find that none were quite finished. We can talk of those painty days at Bill Hall, just as Miss Nye tells of the ecarly, muddy days on campus. e Just as last year we Hurricanists were the first Freshman class to be ushered to classes by a swoop of the elements, this year we were the first Sophomore class to express to a Freshman class our greetings and wel- comes in any form other than hazing. Instead of asking the Freshmen to disguise themselves in lamp shades and bath towels so that we Some Sophomores work would never recognize them again anyway, instead of mildly terrorizing them with threats of blacklist, instead of haunting them for two days to make them catch up on our back correspondence for uswe tried to make them see by our deeds that we were proud to be able to initiate them into Connecticut College. At our first class meeting Mary Anna Lemon, our Class President, stated this challenge and Nancy Pribe, chairman of entertainment, presented tentative plans. These plans evolved into a very gay party held in the gym. Each sophomore, identified ' Friends, Friends, Friends, we will always be. by a red bow in her hair, introduced her bewildered Freshman to as many Sophomores as possible. The prize offered to the girl who learned the most names was only the begin- ning. The particularly dramatic Sophomores presented a typical college scene, lunch time at Thames Hall. The grind could scarcely get her nose out of the book, the fatty could not keep her hands out of the food, the waitress did not attempt to keep her clbows clear of her classmates eyes, and the sophisti- cate could not cease to talk about her 'men. 37 Whether in Fair or in Dark stormy weather. The Freshmen did their part well, taking us from a blind date with a goon-guy to the rapture of a dance with Cadet Fish. With the singing of the Sophomore songs and the Alma Mater under the direction of our song leader, Sue Parkhurst, the party in the gym ended. Food and fun were waiting in the Sophomore dorms. e The fall was colorful and bright. Our boots and so'westers had a long nap in our closets, but not so the Sophomores. Ginny Little, Vice-President of the Class of 1942, Janet Carlson, Secretary of the class, and Jean LeFevre, treasurer, were busy with routine class functions. Frances Homer repre- sented our class at Athletic Association meet- ings. Lois Brenner also our cheer leader and Betty Bowden were busy as Honor Court Judges. Nancy Wolfe was Secretary of Cabi- net. Sandy MacPherson and her committee selected our class rings, of which we are justly proud. We are proud, too, of the ex- cellent job Eleanor Pfautz did as Emily Webb in Owr Town, the first Wig and Candle produc- tion. Shirley Austin and Pat King represented our class at Student Faculty Forum. o As the first flakes of winter appeared, Laughing all the way. we were all busy with plans and dreams for Soph Hop. How grateful we were that our class colors, red and white, fitred in so well with the holiday festivities! Knowlton Salon was transformed under the skillful guidance of Pat King, Chairman of Decorations, into what might have been Santa's own living- room. Red and white flannel socks, well- marked with 1942, gave the telling touch as they hung from the mantel. The Freshmen waitresses looked very festive in red and white dresses, designed by Barbara Horner. With the rhythm and music of Van Alexander and his band in our ears, we danded the cvening away. Thus, swiftly and sweetly, another item in Sophomore year became just a mcmoryh e The Christmas celebrations, begun so gayly, ended beautifully on the eve of our departure for Christmas vacation. In a more beautiful setting than ever before, we again worshipped before the Virgin and Hdr Holy Child. Outside by candle light, we joined our voices in familiar carols. At midnight, the Freshmen sang bencath our windows. Qur Swow Drift turn came at five in the morning. Tumbling from dorm to dorm, with tecth chattering, we sang our share of the Christmas tidings. e As we recuperated from Mid-Years, the erstwhile conservative elements decided we Hurricanites'' needed another spectacle to awe us. Rain and sleet descended, encased the trees, and froze hard and glistening, Winter Spores Campus, sparkling under the screet-lights, looked like childhood's dream of silver fairy- land. Yet it was a cruel beauty which wrought such havoc to our trees. e In the midst of rehearsals for the Wig and Candle production, Stage Door , Mascot Hunt began. Although numerous Sophomores were in the cast Cour hats off to Sue Parkhurst for her fine performance as Dancing to Van Alexander at Soph Hop Terry Randalll, excitement was keen on the quad. Lois Brenner was chosen Mascot Chairman. Under the leadership of Marion Bisbee, Chairman of Clue Committee, we attempted to decipher Gertrude Stein's great message and to discover why L. Lewis and Co. suddenly and suspiciously started spelling wear , ware. Janet Carlson, Chairman of Juniors Committee, led a shadowing cam- paign. Great was the excitement when the Junior Banner disappeared! Great was the Sophomore inclination at Amalgamation meeting to buy a flag-pole or 2 window for the library! At last on the snowy day of Junior Banquet, Jean LeFevre, Chairman of the Saturday Committee, rallied us rogether and sent us peering up into birds nests and down into wells. We never found the Mascor, but we gave the Juniors a scarc. There were many shaking knees, then sighs of relief, when our telegram was read. Despite helpful hints from honorable members of the Junior class, we never thought of 2 speakers stand The pause to refresh between dances 39 for the auditorium. o It was a brief, busy spring! After vacation, came competitive plays with hectic but hilarious rehearsals. As Sophomores, we had the new fun of hanging May-baskets on the Seniors' doors. Although rehearsals for competitive sing were numerous, we all got that sinking fecling inside as we donned our white dresses. e Summer was almost upon us when, with a climax of hard studying, we closed our textbooks until the fall. Then we will return to new textbooks, to another year of sur- prisesclimatic and otherwiseand the role of aJunior class to play. Barsara Hickey, President of the Class of 41 o A small white envelope in late August; 'Your Freshman Sister will be-+, and the realization that now we were actuplly Juniors swept over us suddenly and excitingly. Juniors! The very thought of the word as we repeated it reverently to ourselves had a mystical glamour. We, the Class of '41, were now about to assume the dignified role of upper-classmen, though we felr, if anything, younger than that memorable Fall of '37when we had so proudly taken over the ritlel of college girls. We, the Class of '41, were now about to enter the last half of our college days, and even then, we felr a little frightened that so many of them were behind us. e Another small college envelope, this one informing us that our room would be in Windham, Jane Addams, or even the Tower room of 1937, and our frantic, joyous rush of letters ensued, with the one main purpose of What room have you? Isn't it wonderful? See you in September! e And September came, full of hot, sticky days of 'winter shopping, hunts for room furnishings, and tearful but excited good-byes! Then off to New London, and we found ourselves suddenly swept up from the station in a taxi and landed on the doorsteps of our respective dorms, surrounded by suit- cases, hatboxes, golf clubs and our pet teddy bear. And there were Jean, Dottie, Anne and Marge! A scrambled flurry, everything flying to the winds, in the mad delirious rush of first embraces, and 'Oh, isnt school marvel- ous! and Have you seen the new build- ings? ' Relaxation Period o Then, the first glorious turmoil of inspecting beautiful Palmer Auditorium, Bill Hall, and Harkness Chapel; comparing sum- mer vacations; exclaiming over fraternity pins; missing old faces, and greeting new ones. And we settled down to a more regular routine. e We looked up our Freshmen Sisters, who already were feeling part of the college, and we marvelled at the way in which those of us who were House Juniors had helped them to seccle and adjust themselves. How well we remembered those days, and again, the amazing, incredible awareness that now we were Juniors. e We still wondered at it when we They like the jolly juniors and the seniors ger sHumg. Boatload found ourselves in the roles of hostesses rather than guests at the reception and style show which we and Service League, joining together, gave our Freshmen Sisters. From strapless evening gowns to Dr. Denton's our fall finery was displayed by various members of our class, and 1939 fashions were voted 'the tops. o Gradually we found ourselves back in the full swing of classes, concentrating more on our major subjects this year, yet still finding time for our outside activities and fun, this year under the able direction of : President Barbara Hickey; Vice-President, Gene Mer- cer; Secretary, Priscilla Duxbury; Treasurer, Betty Brick; Chairman of Entertainment, Marian Turner; Athleric Association Repre- sentative, Jessie Ashley; Song Leader, Helen Jones; Assistant Song Leader, Mary Hall; Cheer Leaders, Lee Barry and Terry Strong; and Historian, Virginia Chope. e There were the resules of our Voca- tional Interest tests to wonder at, the Hallo- we'en party, mid-semester marks th worry over, and then, almost before we knew irt, Thanksgiving was upon us, with only two short weeks after thar till we would clear our desks and lock our trunks for Christmas vacation. And what excitement! Christmas trees to be decorated, last night feasts planned, Christadora dolls to sew for, and then chelast, wonderful, never-to-be-forgotten day before vacation arrived, bright, clear, and Group Picture cold, promising a real winter night for the festivities. e The pageant was especially beautiful and impressive in the new auditorium, the candle-lighting ceremony and carols were lovely, and the comfortable feeling of being on the receiving end of the midnight carols of the Freshmen and the five o'clock serenad- ing of the Sophomores was positively luxuri- ous. And what fun! e Excited good-byes, Merry Christ- mases, crowded taxis, and mor-crowded trains, and we were off. New London was In My Solitnde left in the distance and our one thought now was Home! And three heavenly weeks of vacation. e The time, January, 1940. The scene, New London station, and we were back again, rushing for taxis, and amazingly enough not in the rain! Then that, 'Oh well, it was swell while it lasted, feeling and the grim, ominous prospect of Finals. Study in Contrase e But before then, came the beautiful, inspiring dedication of Harkness Chapel, and we had a feeling that now there was a new completeness and unity to the college, and we were impressed again with the magnificence of our new buildings and the new oppor- tunities they made possible. e Then Mid-Years, and even they scemed to fly by this year and the next thing we knew, we were halfway through our Junior year, and deep in plans for second semester. o Mid-Winter Formal in all its blue and white glory was a memory almost before we were aware it was here; then, inter-class basketball games, and the traditional Mascot Hunt was again under way. The Sophomores in proud possession of our Banner, diligently and ceaselessly searching for our clusive clues, our amused watchful waiting, and then the tense moment at Junior Banquet in March, when our very lives scemed to hang in the balance as we watched the telegram being opened. e Next, Spring vacation, and our thoughts were even then leaping forward to April and our own big week-end, Junior Prom. It was perfect in every respect, all we had eagerly anticipated and more, 2 weck-end to go down in our memories as an unforget- table. e Competitive Plays came next, ours under the able direction of Elizabeth Morgan; Father's Day and then, unbelievably soon, the last of May, with Competitive Sing and our last Moonlight Sing, our class, the Class of 41, receiving the candles and taking over the old stone wall. 43 'Lords of all they survey e Again, Finals suddenly were before us, and now, the shocking realization that we are Seniors confronts us. elt's been a glorious year. We've loved being Juniors, and though we feel a pang at the thought, we still have glowing plans and hopes for Senior year stretching out invitingly before us. So here 41, to you, and may you be all we hope for! Irene KennNeL, President af Student Governmyent e As there can be no college without students and faculty, there can be no demo- cratic college without an organizatian of self-government with representation df all students. Because we have such a governing body, we may well be proud of Connecticut. Student Government was granted to the stu- dents in 1916, and has gone on ever since, proving its necessity and worth. The demo- cratic ideals and the code of honor it presents must ever be precious to us. e The chief governing branches of our Student Government consist in Cabjnet, House of Representartives, and Honor Court. Amalgamation meetings are also a very vital part. And Student Faculty Forum fills the im- portant need of bringing together student and faculty opinion into a harmony of interest. e The officers of Student Government, or 'Stu.G. as it is referred to in every-day usage, include Irenc Kennel, President; Mary Anne Scott, Vice-President; Nancy Wolfe, Secretary-Treasurer; Bessie Knowlton, Chief Justice of Honor Court; Janet Flercher, Speaker of the House. And the members of Student Government are the entire student body. e The officers of the association are elected by majority vote with closed ballot. The elections are held in May. Before a candidate is eligible she must be endorsed by a petition of one hundred and fifty signatures. This is a valuable training in citizenship for us. We are given the opportunity to partici- pate in a democratic system here before we have to participate in the national one as citizens. e The machinery and the regulations of Stu. G. have been set up by the students, based on a high standard of honor, and are maintained by this same standard. If previ- ously established regulations are no longer deemed useful by the student body, they may discard them and adopt new measures. During our four years under Connecticut's Student Government, we have been a parc of this progress in voting for unlimited nights for Seniors, a less rigorous drinking rule, and such legislation. And although the smaller bodies are the chief organs of government, the final word comes through the entire student body in Amalgamation meeting. 44 e Cabinet represents the executive power of our organization in its assistance to the President. In it are vested such powers as the interpretation and execution of our present laws and the proposing of new measures to the House of Representatives,or the passing on new measures emanating from the House. It is always alert to student opinion and through it the progressive growth of the association has been maintained. It is also empowered to appoint the college Fire Chief each year and to pass on such nomina- tions as those of House Presidents and House Juniors. Cabiner is the heart of the Student Government Organization. e The members and officers of Cabinet for the college year of 1939-40 consist of the President, Irene Kennel; the Vice-President, Mary Anne Scott; the Secretary-Treasurer Nancy Wolfe; the Chief Justice of Honor Court, Bessie Knowlton; the Speaker of the House, Janet Fletcher; the President of Service League, Patsy Tillinghast; the Editor-in- Chief of News, Anahed Berberian; the Presi- dent of the Athletic Association, A. Darby Student-Faculty Forum in which Student and Faculty Opinions are Unified. Wilson; the President of Wig and Candle, Mary Testwuide; the President of Press-Board, Anne Rubinstein; the President of the Class of 1940, Olive Mcllwain; of 1941, Barbara Hickey; and of 1942, Mary A. Lemon. e Student-Faculty Forum is perhaps the ear of our association. In the Forum meet- ings the wider currents of opinion about cur- rent campus activities are brought to the sur- face and discussed. It not only includes such items as changes in curriculum and general examinations on its roster, but also all of our extra-curricular activities. It possesses no executive, judicial, or legislative powers. Its purpose is to direct the attitudes of students and faculty. Cabinet, where all important campus problems and issues are first presented for solution a The legislative branch of Student Government is vested in the House of Repre- sentatives, a body composed of the House Presidents of all of the Houses, Members-at- Large, and presided over by the Speaker of the House, which office is held byJanet Fletcher for the year of 1939-40. It may pass necessary legislative measures, subject to Cabinet's approval, and discuss and act pn all martters concerning proposed college-wide legislation envolving living conditions which affect the entire college. It also reviewjs and approves all sign-out slips from the Houses. It is perhaps the governing body closgst to the whole student body, and thus can handle minor changes which must be made. e Honor Court is the judicial branch The House of Represemtatives, that legislative body which keeps our govern- ment Progressive. Honor Conrt, as the Judicial power, upholding true self-government. of our government. It enforces all of the rules and principles the students have established. The honor code is here displayed at its hest. A student who has broken a law reports her- self to the Chief Justice voluntarily for doing so, or is urged to by social pressurc. The Chief Justice presents the student's case to the Court without names or bias. The Court acts on a basis of established rule and precedent, yet each case is judged on its own merits. The penalty is adapted to the need. This year the Chief Justice is Bessie Knowlton, 40; the Judges are Mary Giese and Annette Osborne, '40, Nancy Marvin and 41, Elisabeth Bowden,' 42. Lois Langdon, '40, is Barbara Twomey, Lois Brenner and the Court Secretary. Miriam Brooks, President of Inter-Club Conncil e The Clubs have a very large place in our extra-curricular activities. They are as democratic as our Student Government. Any student may belong to any club by merely attending meetings or by carning enough points to belong, depending on the require- ments. The clubs are supported by a blanket tax which we pay at the same time as our tuition. o This year, as a result of a Cabinet in- vestigation an attempt has been made to im- prove the conditions and cope with the problems of all the clubs through an inter- club council. The council is made up of the Presidents of all the clubs and is headed by Miriam Brooks. Science Club 47 e Many of the clubs have come as a result of the interests aroused by our courses of studies. The Science Club is a product of such interest. Those of us who are interested in any of the sciences, Botany, Zoology, Chemistry, Home Economics, and Physics, have found an outlet outside of class-rooms in the Science Club. e The officers of the club for the cur- rent year, 1939-40 include Mary Hall of the Class of '41 as President, Mary Montague of the same class as Vice-President and Secre- tary, and Alice Porter of the Class of '40 as treasurer. e The monthly meetings produce a varicty of activities. Lectures, moving pic- tures and slides are offered on current develop- ments in various scientific fields, often fol- lowed by open discussions. And in the spring there is an annual picnic for the sake of frivol- ity rather than science. Hom: Economics Club e Although some study of Home Eco- nomics is included in the meetings lof the Science Club, there are so many girlsin the four classes who are majoring in the field that they have organized a separate Home Eco- nomics Club. The officers for this year are President, Marillyn Maxted, '40; Vicg-Presi- dent, Sylvia Wright, '40; Secretary, Barbara Twomey, '41; Treasurer, Winifred Tilden, 41; Chairman of Refreshments, Edith Irwin, '40; and Chairman of Publicity, Florence Wilkenson, '42. e At many of the monthly meetings there are guest speakers. At others there are dinners, candy pulls, and similar activities involving food, its preparation and nutrition. One particularly outstanding event of this year was the progressive dinner given early in the winter. o Courses in Psychology have also stimulated interest, with a resultant Psy- chology Club. The officers are Sue Carson, '40, President; Elizabeth Anderson, '40, Vice- President; Jane Wray, '41, Secretary. This year the Psychology Club had the privilege of being the first to use the new psychology seminar room in Bill Hall. Before ecach meet- ing, members of the club had an opportunity to meet the Speaker of the day informally at tea. The room was also used as a meeting place for psychology majors throughout the year. e The first guest speaker of the year was Dr. J. McVikar Hunt of Brown Uni- versity who's subject was ''A Frontal Lobe Removal in a College Man. Other speakers included Dr. Gardiner Murphy of Columbia, who lectured and performed an experiment in extra-sensory perception, and Dr. Alfred Metraux of Yale who spoke on The Psy- chology of the Easter Islanders. 48 e The Connecticut College Press Board is an organization for girls interested in news- paper writing. Assisting Mrs. Floyd of the Publicity Department, they act as publicity agents for the college while they learn, by actually doing it, the fundamentals of news- paper writing. e The girls write straight news stories and feature articles on everything from Con- vocation lectures to flower shows. Regular correspondents send articles and photographs to leading newspapers in this part of the country, informing the outside world about various phases of student life on the campus. Through personal items, written by junior members of the staff, the parents and friends of every girl in college can read about her scholastic, athletic, and extra-curricular achievements. e In addition to their work, Press Board members enjoy social activities. There is an informal tea to welcome the new girls every fall. At the annual banquert in the spring it has become traditional to award gold keys to those who have done outstanding work during the year. The officers for this year are Editor-in-Chief; Laeita Pollock, City Editor; Dorothea Wilde, Man- aging Editor; Muriel Prince, Business Man- Anne Rubinstein, agcr. e Everyone who enjoys music is con- sidered a member of the Music Club. Fre- quently the meetings are informal student recitals. This year the most interesting recital was given by members of the music compo- sition class, who presented a group of their own compositions. There are two important aims of the Music Club; the first aim is to become acquainted with the various types of music, and the second, to make the student body 'music conscious''. o This year the officers were as follows: Evelyn McGill, President; Kay Kirk, Vice- President; and Catharine Ann Rich, Secretary- Treasurer. The Press Board 49 e As a branch of Service League, Religious Council consists of forty-eight rep- resentatives from the college houses with Dr. Laubenstein as faculty adviser. The Council has been given particular im;pctus this year with the consecration of the Hark- ness Chapel. e Last year student responsibility for The Religions Council chapel services was called upon for che first time; this year we have continued to have student chapels under the direction of the Worship Committee which innovated the morning communion service. The college has been well represented at incercollegiatg con- ferences where it is hoped that the interming- ling of ideas will emerge as a forceful and practical philosophy of life. The emphasis of our first year of con- tact with the beauty and strength of Hark- ness Chapel has been to give dignity and vital- ity to the spiritual forces working on campus. e The Philosophy Club functions only as a member of the Philosophy Conference, which has as its other members the Phil- osophy Clubs of Wesleyan University and Connecticut University. Three times a year the conference meets on one of the campuses to hear papers read on a certain topic, and to discuss afterwards. The topics selected are timely ones, usually of a more or less The gives opportunity to everyone to con- philosophical nature. discussion tribute his or her ideas. e The philosophy majors are usu- ally the ones to read the papers, but any philosophy student may attend the con- ference and join freely in the discussions. This year the topic for the first meeting was on Critical Ethics and Customary Morality, and for the second, Social Re- form and Where it Begins. e Current events show us that an understanding of cultural and politi- cal trends in Germany are of importance to everyone. The German Club has this as its purpose. By hearing lectures on litera- ture, art, and politics, celebrating 2 German Christmas Service, and singing Folk songs, the members endeavor to discover the mean- ing these have in the contemporary world. e This year, Miriam Brooks, '40, is serving as President of the Club. Assisting her are Shirley Austin, '42, Secretary-Treas- urer; and Maya Anderson, Chairman of En- tertainment. Perhaps the most outstanding speaker for the year was Dr. Nagler of Marymount College. 50 e The Mathematics Club officers in- clude: Beryl Sprouse, 40, President; Elizabeth Kent, '40, Vice-President; Marguerite Whit- taker, 40, Treasurer; Elizabeth McCallip, '41, Secretary. An interest in any phasc of Mathe- matics is the only prerequisite for member- ship in Math Club. Our purpose is to acquaint our members, by formal papers and informal discussion, with the history of mathematics and with other topics of mathematical inter- est, which are not included in formal courses; and to create an interest in things mathema- tical about college. e Our first meeting is usually held in Buck Lodge where we have a picnic supper and talk by Dr. Leib Cwhich is always humorous acquainting the new members and refresh- ing the rusty minds with the history of this club. During the year our meetings vary from formal pa- pers, lectures, discussions, to movies, teas, and parties. The grand finals is another picnic at the Lodge where Dr. Leib gains annual stardom in the baseball game. e Connecticut College News is the student weekly which correlates and co-or- dinates campus activities for us. The Editorial Staff is headed by Anahid Berberian '40, as Editor-in-Chief. Her assistants are Phyllis Sherriffs '41, News Editor; Edythe Van Rees '41, Managing Editor; Shitley Dichter 40, Exchange Editor; Polly Brown '40, Carol 51 Chappell '41, Literary Editors; Barbara Evans '40, is Art Editor and Thea Dutcher 41 is the President's Reporter. o The Business Staff has as Business Manager Katharine Potter '40. Under her are Margaret Strecker '41, Advertising Manager; Helen Burnham '40, Circulation Manager; and the Assistant Business Managers, Eliza- The News Staff beth Hubert '40, Margaret Ford '41, and Alice Hobbie '41. The Assistant Advertising Managers are Evelyn Saloman '41, Alida Reinhardt 41, Nancy Wolfe 42, and Virginia Lictle '42. The Assistant Circulation Man- agers are Carol Thompson 40, Marguerite Whittaker '40, and Mary Heft '41. e The News is supported by blanket tax and is entirely under Student Control. Through Free Speech every student has the opportunity to express her own opinions. The editorials reflect abstracted student thought and opinions. e The Art Club is a creative outlet for those among us who are so talented. The officers for this year are Olive Mcllwain, President, and Carol Thompson, Secretary- Treasurer. Both girls are members of the Senior Class. Included in the activities of the club this year were two guest lecturers, Georges Du Thuit, sponsored also hy the French Club, and Lionello Venturi, sponsored also by the Iralian Club. In the Spring a series of Skerching Picnics were held, the artists sketching in Bolleswood and following this with a picnic supper. e The Poster Guild is a branch bf the Art Club. It is a great convenience for all of Connecticut's Clubs. Jane Whipple, 41, its President and her capable staff produce most of the posters, advertising all campus func- tions, dances, lectures, concerts, and dra- matic events. e The outlet for creative writing on the Campus is found in Quarterly, Connecticut's magazine. The students contribute diverse literary work, verse, short stories, plays, criticism, and essays; from these the works of highest literary merit are selected. Quarterly is sustained by blanket tax and has some faculty supervision. Appearing four times a year, it maintains for us a valuable standard of literary excellence. e The Editor-in-Chief of the Quarterly Board is Dorothy Rowand '40, and her staff includes Ruth Gill '40, Associate Editor; Helen Biggs '40, Senior Editor; Priscilla Duxbury and Lorraine Lewis '41, Junior Editors. Beryl Sprouse '40, is the Business Manager. Under her are Grace Bull 40, Ad- vertising Manager and Ethel Moore '41, Assistant Business Manager. Dr. Smyser is the faculty advisor. The Publishers of Quarterly 52 The Sraff of Ko e One of the most interesting tasks of Senior Year is the publication of Korng, the Senior Yearbook. We have been fortunate this year to have a willing, capable and co- operative staff. Annectte Osborne and Mary Elizabeth Heedy served as Senior Literary Editors. Leann Donahue and Anne Rubin- stein acted as Junior Literary Editors. Doris Hart was the Secretary. The Photography Editor was Natalie Maas, and Marianna Frank assisted her. The Art work was contributed by Olive Mcllwain. The Senior Class His- torian, Suzanne Getler, also deserves mention for the Senior Section, as do the other Class Historians, Mary Enequist 43, Barbara Beach '42, Virginia Chope 41. e Barbara Wynne has handled the business end of Koine as Business Manager. Her Assistant Business Manager is Evelyn Gilbert. Hazel Rowley, Renee Sloan, Sybil 53 Bindloss, Eleanor Timms, and Mary Giese have served as Advertising Managers. Sub- scriptions were handled by Mary Deane, Mary Fisher, and Betty Morton. To the girls appointed also in every house to sell sub- scriptions we are also very greatly indebred. e As Editor-in-Chief, Betty Lamprecht wishes to thank anyone and everyone who has helped in publishing Komvg, no martter how small a part they contributed. For the girls who spent weary hours typing and for those Club Presidents who rendered aid in writing the activitics of their clubs, she has heartfelt gracitude. She is equally grateful to those who, day after day, tracked down the business men in their lairs, and to those who assessed their fellow students for subscrip- tions. The Editors, both Junior and Senior, of all branches, literary, art, and photography have also been invaluable. Without the entire staff there could have been no Komve. e The Connecticut College 'C' might be called the Freshman Bible, containing as it does, the rules and regulations for the stu- dent body. This book the Freshmen pote over in anticipation of the C quiz. The 'C lists the officers and gives a brief write-up of each college organization, contains the words to many college songs, and includes much other miscellaneous information. e The C clude new student government rules and to is edited annually to in- correct the mistakes of former editions. Editor-in-Chief of this year's 'C Hardy, with Marietta Luccock, the Business was Anne Manager and Margaret Stoecker and Sybil Ward on the staff. o The Riding Club has seen many im- provements this year and it is with pleasure that we look forward to the completion of a marvelous new riding ring which will be ready for use next year. e A new jumping course was laid out which heightened interest to many in learn- ing the art under the expert direction of Miss Martin, the instructor in Horsemanship. We have also acquired the foreward seat in prep- aration for polo, hoping that in the near future Connecticut College may have a polo team. The horses have been excellent this year and are well equipped for this branch of riding. .The Publishers of 'C e We have enjoyed many long rides over the cross-country of New England, par- ticularly beautiful in the fall, and have tried out our culinary abilitics on our fellow mem- bers during these rides. This winter movies have been shown in our meetings and inter- esting accounts given of various horse-shows we have attended. This year our own show given on Father's Day week-end, was a huge success. For the efforts of the whole year we bow to Jean Baldwin, President; and Marjorie Toy, Secretary. The Romance Language Clubs add 54 much of culture and of thought to our campus life. Constantly stimulated by the many courses Connecticut offers, in French, in Italian, and in Spanish, they have grown to a place of value and importance in our scheme of things. Miss Ernst has rendered great as- sistance to the French Club, and Mr. Lanza and Mr. Sanchez have been invaluable to the Italian and the Spanish Club. e This year the French Club was ex- tremely fortunate in being able to present several outstanding lecturers, including Jac- ques Maritain, one of the leading figures in the spiritual life of Europe today; Professor Henri Peyre of Yale University; and the well- known art critic, Georges Du Thuit. e The club was also successful in show- ing four French moving pictures. The officers of the club are Louise Flood '40, the Presi- dent, and Frances Russ '40, the Secretary- Treasurer. e The Italian Club is an informal group whose members meet frequently to converse in Tealian, to listen to Italian music, and to keep in contact with Italian culrure. The out- standing event of the year was a lecture by the art critic, Lionello Venturi, whose sub- ject was 'How to Look at a Painting . e The officers of the club are Sybil Bindloss 40, President; Doris Bonner '40, Vice-President, and Elinor Eells '42, Secre- tary-Treasurer. The Spanish Club's outstanding serv- ice this year was the presentation of El Rancho Grande' a Spanish movie. It was, according to campus rumors, a great success. 55 During the regular meetings, the members assimilated Spanish culture through discus- sions and lectures and music of the contem- porary scene and of the past. e Constance Harvey '40, served as President of the Club for this year, assisted by the Secretary-Treasurer Alice Hobbie 41, and the Chairman of Entertainment, Betty Morton 40. Natanie Kuivans, President of LR.C. elIn a year of international strife, L.R.C. brought to the students an unbiased view of world affairs, and plans for solving the chaotic conditions. Dr. Halford Luccock spoke on American Democracy; Vernon Nash on Union Now''; and Dr. Louis Cornish on Phillippine Independence. o Students also journcyed to other New England campuses to discuss various aspects of current issues; we participated in several student movements: and cooperated with the Furopean Student Service to aid foreign students abroad. Mary TestwuiDg, President of Wig and Candly e The Student Friendship Fund was successfully raised through individual con- tributions, an informal dance, and a depres- sion dinner. e The Dramatic Club is one of the oldest on our campus. It was started the second year of the school's existence, 1916. For the first five years, the club presented only one production a year. In 1921 the organiza- tion took full charge of their productions; even doing their own. In 1927 the club adopted its present name of Wig and Candle . e Today, Wig and Candle is the or- ganization on campus responsible for all dramatic activities in the college. It super- Important but unlanded part of production vises - the Freshman Pageant; Competitive Plays, Fall Play, Mid-Winter Play, Com- mencement Play, and the Melo-Drama. Its functions include all the fields of the drama, such as, acting, makeup, lighting, scenery, and the business affairs. The club is selective, and the members are chosen on their own merit according to a point system based on work done in the backstage and acting fields. e The 1939-40 season had as its officers: President, Teddy Testwuide; Vice-President, Mary Giese; Business Manager, Grace Bull; Secretary, Lee Barry; Treasurer, Betty Lamp- recht. The chairman of the production com- mittees were: Lighting, Patsy Tillinghast and Berty McCallip; Properties, Lee Harrison; Scenery, Dot Boschen; Makeup, Lee Rein- and Elizabeth Morgan; Costumes, Marge Kurtzon and Betty Gilbert; Art Di- hardt rector, Guildane Keshian. The plays were under the capable direction of Mrs. Josephine Ray. e With fervor the club's life began in the new excellently - equipped auditorium on November 24 and 25with the production of Thorton Wilder's Our Town' . eOn March 8 and 9, Stage Door , a brilliant comedy by Edna Ferber Kaufman was presented. Under- current play and George standing plus good acting made both productions very successful. They offered opportunity for good acting parts, as well as a chance for exploration, especially in the technical lighting in Our Town ' and the professional scenery in 'Stage Door . This year the club purchased three sets of scenery which had previously been used in the Broadway hit of 1939, Noel Coward's play, 'Set To Music. e On April 10 Wig and Candle' sponsored Wesleyan Uni- versity Dramatic Club's perform- ance of The Merchant of Venice . The Sophomore and Junior Com- petitive Plays were on April 12 and the Freshman and Senior Plays were on April 19. eIn May the Pageant in the Outdoor Theatre and the Melo-Drama in the gymnasium proved to be sensational productions given by the Freshmen and Senior classes respectively. All the other perform- ances were given in the Palmer Auditorium. e Throughout the year two contests were sponsored by the club. One was for a Wig and Candle stationery, charms, and programs. The in- insignia to be used for signia designed by Guildane Keshion, was chosen out of the group of sixteen that were entered. 57 A drawing room in the making e The other was a Play Writing Con- test with a prize given by an anonymous member of the faculty. It is hoped that the winning play may be given next year. e The season was closed with a banquet at which time honors were awarded to the three most outstanding performers of the year and the backstage crew. Charms were also presented to the members of the club. Mary Giese, the club's Vice-President served as toastmistress and speeches were given by various members of the faculty and by the officers. The occasion marked the first banquet Wig and Candle has ever had. T LYY 1 i Buck Lonce, Headguarters for C.C.0.C. e 'If you enjoy sports, A.A. weldomes you to the games and meets that are held. A.A. encourages you to have fun in sports at Connecticut; take advantage of the weather and equipment; come out and meet the gthers who are interested in outdoor fun. You don't have to be an expert. All you need is the spirit of fun, or as A.A.'s motto sol ably states it, 'Play for play's sake' . e This concluding paragraph in the Connecticut College A.A., the supplement to the C , published by the athletic associa- tion, is typical of that esteem and enthusi- asim in which we hold Sporzs. They are truly, Play for play's sake''. Although athletics are required of every student during her four years, the varicty offered and the exceptional facilities we have remove any feeling of com- pulsion. Sometimes we grumble when gym attendance means hurrying from a class to don a 'gym-suit and then dashing through rain to play badminton for an hour; but those hours of exercise, when we learn the thrill of team-work, of give and take, and when we know the pride of being skilled in some sport, make such slight discomforts unimportant. That spirit of democracy which per- vades all the other activities of Connecticut is equally evident in sports. Ability and skill are the only criterea for selecting class teams and inter-class Varsities. Even if low grades bar a student from a place on a class team, she may still be on a house team or participate in inter-house games. And because no grade is given in Physical Education except 'P' or N.P. , any spirit of 'cut-throat compe- tition is eliminated. Perhaps another factor that furchers this is the way in which squads are chosen by voluntary try-outs. e The capacities of all individuals are considered in the many types of sports offered. From the quiet and health restoring, 'Light and Rest, for those who are below par physically, to the encrgy-demanding Hockey or Basketball or Modern Dance, the gamut runs to please any desire. 58 e Our athletics are controlled by the students under the Athletic Association, whose rating members include every student at Connecticut. The Association is headed by a council, elected by the students. Class rep- presentation is provided for by class-elected representatives. A.A. conducts all of the class games and other competitions with the aid of sport managers. It also provides for informal sports such as Saturday afternoon hockey games. It sponsors inter-collegiate play-days. e A.A. also has a special side. At the completion of the fall and winter seasons, A.A. Coffees are held in Thames Lounge. An invitation to the 'Coffec rests on being 2 member of some sports squad. There the final honorary teams are disclosed, including squads, second teams, first teams, Honorable Mention Varsity teams and Varsity Teams. In May A.A. holds its annual eagerly- awaited banquet for those who have more than twenty points in athletics, and all final 59 Officers of the Atbletic Association cups, and individual awards are made. Wecan never forget the excitement that is felt before the C charm, the highest award, is given to that senior or seniors doing the most for A.A. during their four years of membership. CWell-placed shot .. Swords FlashO ffensive! Defensive! Touche! e This year the successful head of A.A. has been Alice Darby Wilson. Dorochy Cushing has served under her as Vice-Presi- dent, Jeanne LeFevre as Treasurer and Polly Frank as Secretary. The class Representative on A.A. Council included Dorothy Gieg 40, Jessie Ashley '41, Frances Homer '42, and Alyse Watson '43. Natalie Maas '40, has assisted with Photography and Teddy Reib- stein '42, with News reports. e The Connecticut College Outing Club, C.C.0.C., which provides pleasure for many of us, is a subsidiary under the Athletic Association. Its membership also in- cludes all students, but it is neces- sary for us to go on a required number of outing trips to become active members. Included within its activities: mountain-climbing, skiing canoeing week-ends, trips, Barn Dances, and breakfasts and other repasts at Buck Lodge. The Outing Club has derived so much pleasure from Buck Lodge, that it might almost be termed headquarters. C.C.O.C. owes a great deal to Miriam Brooks, its President, for the fun it has had this year. e Life at Connecticut would be far less full and complete without sports. Friendships become stronger in the unity of team-work. The ideals of sportsmanship, loyalty and honor acquire a new meaning and significance. And they prepare us for any future athletic activities; they impress us with the necessity of maintaining physical fitness and the need Play for Play's sake not only holds true for us for relaxation in physical exercise, now but for always. Rhbythni and Movement in the Twentieth Century Mood A The Officers of Service League o Service League deserves a candle en- tirely for itself for che vast amount it accom- plishes on the Campus. It is the organization which carries on our Social Service work. This year Patsy Tillinghast of the Class of 40 serves as it's President, and Anne Hardy of the same class asit's Vice-President. Barbara Beach 42, is the Secretary; and Annc Rubinstein '41, the Treasurer. The Chairman of Entertainment is Ethel Moore 41. e One of the most prominent activities of Service League is it's work for the Mission House. Girls from 61 all classes do volunteer work there, and at Christmas a party is given at Knowlron for the children, with ice-cream and toys and all that a party means. This year Polly Frank acted in the capacity of Santa Claus. e The organization is responsiblef or all charity drives, such as the Red Cross, and the Finnish Relief Fund. Whenever there is need of rendering aid to the community, Service League steps in and handles the situ- ation. The Religious Council, headed by Betty Vilas, '40, and the International Rela- tions Club directed by Natalie Klivans, '40, are also connected with it. e However, not all of the League's activities are of the nature of Social Service. Patsy and her cohorts also supervise much of the social life of the campus. Many small Saturday night dances are sponsored during the year, and the climax is Mid-winter Formal, Connecticut's only dance open to all classes, Freshmen to Seniors. In all activirties, Social and social, Service League takes the lead. Christmas Party for the Mission House e With much expectation and with some curiosity about the Madonna, we always hail the Christmas Pageant. This year there was a Medieval procession led by a feudal lord and his lady, who carried lighted tapers, while a soft accompaniment was sung by the choir. e The curtains opened slowly to reveal a painting of the nativity by Fra Angelico. Catherine Ann Rich was the fortunate mem- ber of the Senior class, chosen to portray the Madonna. e Afterwards a merry note was con- tributed by the carolling outside of the Audi- torium with each girl holding a candle lighted from that of President Blunt who dedicated the ceremony to world peace. And beaven and nature sing . . Gloria in excelsis Deo ... 62 Song Leaders, whose nerves are apparently unshatterable. o When, late in May, the night of Sing arrives, each class has done its best to learn the songs and to present them in an almost professional manner, hoping it will be superior to the other classes. There is tense excitement as the girls stand in their respective groups, dressed in white, waiting their turn. Then bravely displaying its Ban- ner, each group mounts the library steps, singing the Marching Song, and presents its class song, and its original song which must be composed by a member of the class, re- treating after this to the Marching Song. For excellence of performance Comperitive Sing With a love increasing ever As our college years go by, Joined with bonds which noughtcan sever, And our hearts all glorify; O, Connecticut we hail thee, As we, marching, sing thy fame And our voices ne'er shall fail theg, Singing praises to thy name. These lines of the college Marching Song, invariably suggest one of our favorite traditional occasions, Competitive Sing. They conjure up a memory of weeks of rehearsals during which we sing ourselves almost hoarse, and develop stiff legs and sore muscles from marching, as we are drilled by our class 64 The judges of the contest are selected by Dr. Erb. They choose the winning class on various counts. Of prime importance is the quality of the songs, especially those which are original, and the quality of musical per- formance. Percentage of class attendance and best general effect are also included in marking the performances. o Last year the Sing was won by the Class of 42 led by Sue Parkhurstc. The Class The Class of 42 of 41 guided by Helen Jones offered such severe competition that the choice was more difficult than usual. The other classes also made a good showing. Dottie Lou directed the Class of '39 and Shirley Rice directed the Class of '40 . The Class of 39 The Class of 40 The Class of 41 Rose Soukup, Director of 40's Competitive Plays e Each spring the four classes in college compete in presenting one-act plays. For fifteen years a cup has been presented to the class winning the highest total of points in the competition. Three judges observe the plays on the two evenings that they are given and make their decisions on the basis of three divisions of points. Choice of play counts 159; acting, 509; and set, 359. In the first group are considered quality, fitness and am- bitious effort. Acting, involves not only per- sonal effort on the part of the cast, but also choice of the cast. Set, includes ingenuiry of general effect, costumes, makeup and light- ing. Because of the size of the stage inthe audi- torium, and the desire of Wig and Candle, which sponsors the competition, to make the efforts ever more competitive it was decided to disperse with flats, so to-day general effect is the facror that counts 157. After the award has been announced on the night of the last two plays, the cup is given to the director of the victorious class. e A time limit of ten days is set for casting and rehearsal on the part of each class and a maximum sum of $25 is given to each by Wig and Candle for expenditure. e In 1937, as Freshmen, the Class of 40 won the award with The Old Lady Shows Her Medals, by Sir James Barrie, surprising everyone including themselves, since Freshmen are not expected to win. In the search for a director, however, Rose Soukup had been discovered and to her direction the finesse of Jean Sincere's acting and the support of able casts, success may be attributed. Rose has given us the benefit of years of professional experience and can bring understanding into the most difficulc role. Victory came again in 1938, establishing another moral achieve- ment by two successive blue ribbons. That year an experiment was tried with Thorton Wilder's A Happy Journey from Trenton to Camden. With no scenery to add points to their credit, the cast bounced its way through 66 New Jersey'' in a chair automobile. During the week of rehearsals, the small-town family, a father, mother, and two young children jounced their way to visit an older sister. Teddy Testwuide, Jean Sincere, Mary Giese, and Fran Morley will never forget the awful agony of sore muscles in which the play was presented. The audience will not forget the touching and faithful picture of family life which was set forch. Libby Thompson added to the portrayal of fundamental human life, and Polly Frank moved about the stage play- ing the various parts of neighbors, triends and gasoline station attendants in her role of SEHgC managcr. e In 1939, as Juniors, the class of '40 was moved out of first place by the Seniors who won for their second time. Their pro- duction, the third act of 'Cradle Song, was beautifully done; even Rose could not save the Juniors 'Birthday of the Infanta, and the class was grateful for receiving second place. e The Competitive Plays, each year truly have been class productions, since the number and variety of the different casts has always changed. Each year, too, the class as a whole has given its utmost cooperation in production. Automobile Trip from Trenton to Camden Within these portals . . . e The Class of 1939 was the first toluse the newly-erected Frank Loomis Palmer Auditorium last June when it was still in the process of being completed. This year, the Class of 1940 will be graduated in a modern, Audi- torium was another mark in the continuing completely-furnished building. The growth of the college, and one which was greatly needed by both the college and by New London. e The torium, formally dedicated in the fall of 1939, Frank Loomis Palmer Audi- was given to Connecticut College by the sisters of Mr. Palmer, in his memory. This gift was one of the most needed of all build- ings. We, the Senior class, have long suffered meetings in the crowded gymnasium, craned necks to see the characters in plays, squinted our eyes to adjust them to the poor light, and strained our ears to hear the words of a lec- turer from the last row of seats. How different are the comfortable, luxurious seats in the new building; what a difference in the scating arrangement; and how much better are the acoustics for the movies, plays and concerts, We, Seniors of 1940, really appreciate the full value of the Palmer Auditorium. e Not only does the auditorium pro- vide equipment for lectures, movies, plays and concerts, but also there are various prac- tice rooms for the students taking voice or piano lessons, there are numerous class-rooms Frank Loomis Palmer Auditorinm Ready for Convocation for speech classes, and there is a music-room for those who wish to listen to recordings. e The town of New London and the students of Connecticut College appreciate the Frank Loomis Auditorium, and are doing all in their power to have the activities that take place within its walls equal the standards of the gift. e Our appreciation for the auditorium has grown because of the atmosphere it has created for our Convocations, concert series, and Sykes Fund presentation. Notable among the Convocation speakers of the scason was Vernon Nash, who spoke on Union Now''; other speakers were connected with various fields which tied in with the courses taken by 69 college students. The students and the people of New London have enjoyed concerts given by such artists as John Charles Thomas, Efrem Zim- balist, Guiomar Novaes, and the Kolisch String Quartet. The Ballet Russe, also pre- sented, was an outstanding cvent, as was the program given by the Hartford Symphony Orchestra. Next year promises to carry on standards set by this beginning with an equally vivid series. e This year, sponsored by the Seniors, the Sykes Fund presented Blanche Yurka in Comedy Through the Ages''. Each year the Senior class does its bit in helping the Sykes Fund to grow, that some day we may have a Student-Alumnae House. e Not only professional artists have - Brancue Yurka, Sykes Fund Speaker entertained audiences this year, but also mem- bers of Wig and Candle who gave us Our Town' and Stage Door''. Student music Lecture in Progress recitals were also presented. Remarkable per- formances in themselves, but made more so by our auditorium. o The corner-stone of Bill Hall, given by Frederick Bill, was laid last June at Com- mencement, and when we returned this fall it was completed and opened for classes; another landmark in the growth of the college which our class has been privileged to warch. e The building itself is of modernistic architecture, and now holds many of the Psychology, Art and Astronomy classes which previously had been in overcrowded New London Hall. e A spacious lecture room is used for Chemistry Lecture, Art Appreciation courses and Psychology classes. There are facilities for moving pictures and slides. On the second floor there are rooms for students who are taking an Individual Psychology course, where each girl can carry on her own experi- ments. There is a modernistic Psychology Seminar room of chrome and leather in yellow and brown. The Psychology Department boasts furthermore of two rooms with obser- vation screens, a sound-proof room, and a room where the guinea pigs are kept for ex- periments. On the third floor there is an extremely proud Art Department. The walls are lined with cupboards for supplies, and hung with paintings done by students. There are in addition two large studios, one of which has pale blue-green walls, a Pompeian- red stand, and a pale yellow screen; the De- partment has also a new press for etchings. On the fourth floor the Astronomy Depart- ment is equipped with an adequate laboratory and studies which have Venetian blinds, also a dark-room and best of all, an observatory which is, as yet, not completed, but when done will be the finishing touch to our ever- increasing facilities in Bill Hall. e 'Harkness Chapel, built through the generous gift of Mary Stillman Harkness to Frederick Bill Hall . world without end. Amen. express her belief in the importance of re- ligion to college students, is the inscription above the entrance to our newly-consecrated chapel. The Harkness Chapel has been used throughout the year of 1940 for Vesper Serv- ices every Sunday evening and for regular morning chapel services during the week. The chapel was consecrated January four- teenth, with services arranged by President Blunt, Mrs. Harkness and Dr. Henry Sloane Coffin, and the event was onc of historic im- portance on campus. The Class of 1940 is proud to be the first to hold the Baccalaurcate Service on campus. e In connection with chapel there is a college choir of over forty members which furnishes the music for Vesper Services. The 71 student choir has been attractively gowned in maroon robes and caps, which harmonize with the interior of the building. Well- attended recitals are given every afternoon on the new Austin organ for those who enjoy music. Since the dedication of our lovely chapel, students have felc the importance of religion on campus. e The Meclodrama was started in 1936 and was proclaimed a tradition three years Harkness Chapel Mary Giese, the prowd recipient of Iphegenia' later on its presentation, together with its symbol, Iphegenia, the wooden idol, ta the Class of 1940. Each year it is given between Competitive Sing and Moonlight Sing and is bequeathed to the incoming Senior Class through ac least one Junior who has acted with the Senior cast. This year Mary Giese and Snooky Rowley left it to Lorraine Lewis and Dot Boschen as producer and stage man- ager, respectively. The Seniors presented; The Wolf in False Clothing, or Peacd in Poverty, written around a Red Riding Hood mortif. Grace Bull was Grandmother Simkins: Evelyn McGill, Bertha; Lorraine Lewis, Little May; Teddy Testwuide, Albert Brown; Bessie Knowlton, Rupert Montague; Betry Lamprecht, Belle; Jean Moran, Bartender; Becey Vilas, Maggie. e The Melodrama is accompanied by a chorus, and orchestra, and the vocal and peanutycooperation of the audience. Besides helping in specialty numbers and acting as minors, the enlarged quartet, Dorothy Bos- chen, Hart, Willgoos, Mary Heedy, Polly Frank, Cath- erine Rich, Jane Allen, and Edith Irwin, Doris Barbara Deane, Jerry rendered favorites of the Ninecties. The or- chestra, a piano, three violins, and a mouth organ, accompanied the singers. e Work on the next Melodrama be- gins almost the day after the presentation of the last and continues until the following May. Betty Lamprecht, Annette Osborne, Snooky, In 1940 the Melodrama commirtee, and Giese formed the plot around the char- acters they had chosen in order to have Lov: Conquers All 72 definite people around whom to build char- acterization. written by Giese' after Mid-Years. Mickey Rice joined The play was the committee in choosing the songs and pro- vided musical direction. e This year it was felc that since there are two distinct sides to the Melodrama as in other plays, one direction, the other pro- duction, the Melodrama should be given to one girl to direct, and that another should be trained in how to produce without spend- ing money. The only source of income has always been the sale of peanuts and although some backing is provided by Wig and Candle, the heads of the different committees under Snooky did their work without expensc. e Annctte Osborne was in charge of the front office work and directed the refresh- ment committee under Betsy Pfeiffer, pub- licity under Natalie Klivans, and the ushers. The back-stage crews were: scenery under 3 Heares and Flowers'' and Peanuts Barbara Sage and Connie Buckley; properties and costumes under Eleanor Timms, Irene Kennel, and Shirley Devercaux; and lights under Patsy Tillinghast and Darby Wilson. While Strolling Through the Park One Day All the News That's Fit to Print Her Day e She opens her eyes with alstart as she hears the jingle of her neighbor's alarm clock. She shudders and reaches out one arm to silence her's so she won't have the ordeal of hearing the fatal sound twice. She sinks back on her pillow pretending to enjoy those last delicious but terrible momentsin bed, not quite daring to hope that her next door neighbor will shut the window for her. The shuffle of feet in the hall warns her that she can linger no longer. With a sigh she drags herself out of bed, slams down the window, turns on her radiator, and grabs her tooth- brush-the day of a typical C.C. student has begun. e The door shuts behind her as she barely makes 7:30 breakfast. Slumping into the last available chair, she finds to her dis- may thart it is one of those gay tables. Then there is the usual wait for the toaster. Things look brighter, however, as her egg comes to the tabie boiled just to the proper minute, and she forgets to be sleepy as she joins in the conversation of the group. e Leaving her second cup of coffee, ruefully she climbs the three flights of stairs with her Times to look over the headlines before her 8:00 class. With a glance at her watch she seizes her books, puts out her cigarette, and runs across the campus to Fanning, vowing not to schedule any early morning classes next year. e A lively discussion ensues, and the hour before the mail will be our, slips away. The bell rings, and she hurries to the post- office. The crowd has already gathered. She Eight o' clock classes 74 Library Assignment ploughs her way desperately to her box, where her struggles are rewarded wich rhree lettersincluding the 'right one! o After an hour of letters and conver- sation with her chums, the Connecticut col- lege girl realizes with a starc as the chapel bell clangs that she has attended services only once this week. Lustily joining in the hymn singing, she files down the aisle to the in- spiring roll of the organ, fully equipped for the rigors of the day. e Another class follows. Glad she has prepared her assignment carcfully, she con- fidently whips off a ten-minute papet, and Jeans back in her chair to listen to the lecture. The bell rings, accompanied by a unified closing of notebooks. She remembers a li- brary assignment, and postpones turning the heel of a sock she is knitting till later in the day. Relieved to discover the reserve book is not out, she retires to her favorite corner and 75 All work and no play? Leisure Hours is engrossed in her reading until the general exodus reminds her of lunch. She leaves her books and notes on the table, planning to return later. e Now come the happy moments of lunch, the satisfaction of a hearty medlthe confusion of the unburdening of all t!llc joys and miseries of intellectual life. Suddenly someone mentions Prom plans for the coming week-end, and miraculously all attention switches to the charmed topic. o Taking a handful of cookies to her room, the C.C. student forcifies herself for the afternoon's activities. She must have a cigarette before returning to those books in the library. She joins her friends, and cto the strains of music by that Sentimental Gentle- man of Swing, Prom plans are continued. Bridge is proposed, but before she allows her The Mail's All Qut. noble resolve to weaken, she tears herself away and goes back to the 'libe . e Finishing her assignment, she re- linquishes the book to the anxious girl who has been eyeing it for fifteen minutes. With a glorious feeling of freedom, she hurries to meet her friends, who are taking the 2:15 bus downtown. They glance nervously at the chapel clock, wondering if the bus has already passed. Their fears are groundless. It looms into sight just as they decide to srart across campus for the 2-25 bus. The bus is late again Homeport, four o'clock habir 76 o Her check cashed, purchases made at the dime store, she again boards the bus, with a rose in her lapel as a conspicuous token of a paid florist bill. Enroute she plans a schedule of study which will leave her evening free to wash her hair, so it will look just right for the week-end. e Her plans are thwarted, however, when Homeport Helen' appears with that hungry glint in her eyes. Tempting visions of cokes and cupcakes are too much for her, and the 4:00 o'clock habit overcomes her good intentions. She has had a hard day, she racion- alizes, and besides, a walk in the air will be good for her. e At dinner she wonders why she has lost her appetite and can eat only one helping of her peppermint stick ice-cream with choc- olate fudge sauce. Trying to figure out how she can possibly be at Glee Club rehearsal, a labor group discussion, and an Iralian lecture, all at the same time, is too much for her; our student resolves to spend a quiet evening at home, working. e She setcles herself at her desk, and is interrupted at irregular intervals by the girl across the hall, who comes in to borrow her gloves, her new Tropic lipstick, and her treasured charm bracelet, to wear on a very special date. Later, starting hopefully as her buzzer sounds, she goes downstairs, hastily smoothing her hairto find it is Mrs. Whit- 7 Night Life of C. C. man with her clean laundry. e Refreshed only by a coke from the College Inn man, our typical Connecticut college girl decides to wait till tomorrow to wash her hair, and she studies on, and on, and on e One of the most outstanding occur- rences in our four years of college is the con- Nursery School stant growth and progress of the curriculum. It has been interesting to watch and, more important, increasingly valuable forus. It is one of the brightest candles Korng lights, on coming of age. e One of the additions to the content of the curriculum is a course in Retail Man- agement. During the school year, classes halvc been offered on business relations, organiza- tion and administration of stores, art and fashion, and all that is included in store management. But the course also incIuIcs actual experience in a department store. Be- fore school opened in the autumn, the girls worked in G. Fox Co. in Hartford, for four weeks, and also during Christmas and Spring vacations, to learn by doing as well as by studying. It has been a fascinating and un- forgetable experience for those who elected the course. e The new major in Child Development has been profitable for many of us. And the Nursery School the laboratory for this major, has offered us the chance to work with children, purting theory into practice. Perhaps we have grumbled at having to subsist one noon a week on a diet suitable for a three- year old, or at standing with chattering teeth for two hours in the cold, watching the children play, but we have derived pleasure as well as valuable training from the experi- ence. 'We don't do that at the Nursery School is a sentence that most of us will never forget. We have been fortunate to share in Connecticut's educational progress. o As Connecticut has grown from a Supervision of Qutdoor Play Ovive Mcluwain, President of the Class of 40 small and inexperienced college, into a mature insticution of importance, KoinE has re- corded its growth. But KoixE is more than a book of record of Connecticut. Its purpose is the presentation of the development of the class publishing it. For four years we have shared in the varicd experiences of this college, maturing as the college has matured. Thus we, the Class of 1940, light the last candle, the one to grow on . We have come of age with Koing. e Carrying on the traditions of C.C., we have tried to enrich them. We have added to them with such events as Melodrama. We have seen new buildings appear, making our 79 life more enjoyable. We have profited from a progressive curriculum and an enlightened faculty. We have known the friendship of the classes before and after us. We hope that, as a class, and as individuals, we have given in return, of our hearts and of our minds. e As docs every class, we leave behind a Mascot, the only material expression of ouvr appreciation for that period we have passed here. We carry away with us more than we leave behind. To Connecticut, the words Fanning Hall above the entrance to Fanning, represent the Class of '40 . To us those words represent the building where we attended many of our classes, where we dis- covered what education can mean.

The ensuing week was spent in attempts to push too many new clothes into a too small closet, to get acquainted with 'the girl whose brother is on the Yale football team, to get used to a narrow cot and a roommate, and to get to the proper appointment on time. The appointments were diverse and frequent tests physical and mental, instruction in the use of the library, how to choose courses, and the principles of Student Government. Just as we began to feel at home in the new com- munity, oriented as they call it, the upper- classmen invaded our sanctum. Registration was accomplished, and classes started. Regu- lar work began, and was done regularly for probably the last time during our collegiate existence. Them Days are gone forever 133 The Sophomores initiated us well into the mysteries of initiating. We donned blue gymsuits for the occasion, and as ac- cessories, wore long crimson hose, gum on the end of our noses, long black beards, and lampshades on our pig-tailed coiffures. The Sophomores decorated our faces with strange, meaningful symbols, and we salaamed and 'stooged for them all day. Our subscrvience ended after the unlucky members of our group, whose names appeared on the black-list, had done penance prescribed by a stern Sopho- more court. Our probationary pzriod ended, and our sportsmanship proven, we alldrank cokes with the genial Sophomores and established friendships on the resulting basis of equality. e Thanksgiving vacation some of us went home, and some to New York, many in the City for the first cime sans parental chaperonage. Meetings under the clock be- came a reality, instead of a slogan. We breakfasced at Child's, shopped along the Avenue Cwith plate glass separating us from the objects of our desire, sipped Sherry in the Palm Room, went to plays, and danced to the strains of Goodman's band. Lambs being led to Slaughter o The days between turkey and turkey passed rapidly. So did the nights. Curfew had rung at ten o'clock all fall. Thus the better part of a Saturday evening had been spent, after our dates had departed, playing Bridge, Sardines, or even Solitaire. The time of parting was now delayed until the magic midnight hour. e We clected Polly Frank, Class Presi- dent; Barbara Brasher, Vice-President; Irene Kennel, Secretary; and Laura Sheerin, Treas- urer. Soon we were singing Christmas carols in the Quad, sheltering our candles from the wind, whispering of the pageant we had just seen. This peaceful lull preceded an unusually hectic evening. Between carolling and being carolled to, we packed, attended parties, frantically slapped paint on overdue art projects, scribbled themes, and prayed that we'd finish it all in time to make the morning train. e After vacation we worried in carnest about imminent mid-semester examinations. Upper classmen offered heterogeneous advice and hints. Some veterans believed in spending Reading Period catching up on back Movies, others advised studying the examination of the past year and trusting in luck and the reputed absent-mindedness of professors. But whether we conscientiously memorized the text-books, or utilized accumulated knowl- edge, most of us survived unscathed, and pre- pared, after the vacation, for the persever- ance trial of the year, source-themes. e They were assigned weeks in advance of the deadline. We worried through the weeks and spent the last three nights sitcting in the living-rooms, drinking coffee and coca-cola, smoking cigaretteafter cigarette, and writing a line an hour. Those girls whose nervous systems were not shattered, tried out for the Freshman Competitive Play, Barrie's 134 ' We began to Study The Old Lady Shows her Medals. They handled it so capably that we won first place. e Although we had been forewarned by song and poetry of the beauty of Connecti- cut in the spring, we were completely dis- tracted by it. The temptation to desert the laboratory and to study botany directly from nature was often overpowering. Many hours were spent on the beach, munching hot-dogs. Being Freshmen, our hooks went with us, and returned sandy and water-logged. e Ground was broken that spring for 1937 Dormitory, in an impressive ceremony. Many days were spent rehearsing for the pageant to be presented in Bolleswood on Father's Day. The entire class participated in its interpretation of ''The Death of Robin Hood. Rehearsals looked as if we'd proba- bly destroy the old legend for most people. Ungainly Freshmen did court dances in bare feet; giggling gum-chewers vainly tried to be nunlike. The final performance was excellent, however; not a nun tripped on her veil; not 135 an arrow hit a spectator; and the court dancers smiled gallantly as they stubbed their bare toes on stones. The Maypole dancers had trouble winding and unwinding the ribbons, but they admirtted defeat gracefully by simply sitting down and letting the streamers drop. Robin Hood finally died artistically amid the mourning of his green band and parental applause. e Competitive Sing was the final class activity. The evenings previous to it were spent marching up and down the library steps to the tune of the Marching Song. White dresses were hauled out of winter hiding, or borrowed from the Home Ec. Laboratory for the occasion. We looked pretty, sang lustily, and received third place. Winthrop's ' Madding Crowd e Final examinations were only a small hazard. Their unpleasantness was dulled in contrast to the scnrimanal SOrrow of final flings of the entire group :6gethcr for what would be the last time. Thd dinginess of off-campus houses faded in the roseate halo of leave-taking. Realization dawned that here we had learned to live tolerantly and co- operatively. We had become intimately ac- quainted with the affairs of a group of girls from diverse cultural backgrounds, read their mail, worn their clothes, and borrowed their nail polish. Sophomore year we would live Breaking Ground for 37 Dormitory l The Death of Robin Hood with friends of our own choosing, but this year we had the opportunity to understand and appreciate attitudes different from our own. Perhaps this experience began to estab- lish that spirit of critical inquiry towards which education is directed. e At any ratc we learned to read time- tables, to knit our own sweaters, to sleep to the pounding of the typewriter or the sound of a professor's voice. We learned how to truck, how to live on nothing the last week of every month, how to play a decent game of bridge. We discovered the way to cut in on a man at a Service League dance without blushing and saying Where do you go tw school? We found the way to apple-polish without a tangible apple. We were able to distinguish the Seniors from the Sophomores. We began to wear Brooks sweaters, with filthy saddle shoes and crew hats. We found the approximate location of Izzy's. In short, we were acclimated, and considered ourselves very wise in all of the parts that make up a student of Connecticut. 136 Down Freshman We Took the Upper Hand e We returned in the fall, as Sophomores, to the dormitories of the Quad. Here we could smoke in our rooms, receive callers in the living - room without an audience, make quasi-pri- vate phone calls, and sleep five minutes later in the mornings and still make cight o'clock's on time. The Freshmen regarded initiation with justifiable trepidation. For a day and a half we grace- fully reclined on chair or couch, letting our finger nails grow, while the neophytes wrote our letters and polished our shoes, read les- sons to us, and tried to amuse us. Fresh- man! was the cry of the day; we didn't even carry our own books to classes. They were such good sports that before the period was ended, our unused legs felt sympathetically tired. It was almost a relief to have court 137 over, run our own errands, and reverse the order by entertaining the Freshmen. The class officers this year were Irene Kennel, President; Lucy Dix, Vice-President; Sue Spinney, Secretary; and Annette Osborne, Treasurer. e It rained at almost every football game that fall. But we were young and hardy, and enjoyed braving pneumonia and rheuma- rism, ruined waves, and sodden fur coats, to watch Clint Frank make touchdowns. The Yale-Dartmouth game was unforgettable both for being the only game on which the sun shone and for that long run in the last minute which tied the score. We flocked to Service League dances. Midwinter Formal was an occasion; but the year's outstanding social event was Soph Hop. The enterprising committee invited Tyrone Power, Benny Goodman, and several other notables for the week-end. But they unfortunately had previous engagements. So we gave a young ncwcomer the chance to establish a reputation. Artic Shaw was ad- mired by bevies of open-mouthed swing' fans, as he played in a black and silver Knowlton salon. The event was surrounded by tea- dancing, cocktail parties, and dinners The scarch for the Juniors Mascot, their gift to the School, began shortly before Easter vacation, at the first basketball game. quet read, Flag-pole. The Junior president smiled calmly and unveiled a miniature fire- place. e On April first the faculcy declared a Playday, and those who rosc to attend eight o'clock classes were the biggest fools at last. It was a warm, sunny day, and the student body trekked down to Ocean Beach. May Day started for us at four A. M., when Artists and Models Enthusiastically we hounded the Juniors. A Sophomore lurked under evefy bed in '37. Many interesting incidental discoveries were made, but the mascot remained a secret. We found each one of the decoys, and missed all of the clues. The day of Junior Banquet, when the replica was hidden in Fanning, we spent hours hunting for it. Each room was mechodi- cally pulled apart; we cleaned the dusty attic beams with our skirts; three different sleuths went up the flue of the firerplace. The tele- gram that we sent to the Juniors at the Ban- we stole into the Senior Dormitories and hung corsages on every door. Then we returned to eat strawberries for breakfast. We may not unanimously agree that Sophomore year was the best, but it was undoubredly the gayest. The Quad resounded with laughter from late in the morning until late at night. That spring the Campus was infested witch colorful convertibles driven by college men from miles around. They took us picnicking in the afternoon, and dancing at night in Tzzy's, to the tune of 'Martha, or 138 Basketball game some other air revived in swing. At Izzy's we consumed beer, saw our friends through a haze of smoke, and shouted to them above the din. Dancing required dexterity in dodging other couples and the wooden posts that were haphazardly spaced to support the ceiling. Evenings similar to that would be an un- pleasant ordeal now, but were then, un- accountably, fun. v EBii Route from Camden to Trenton, by Thorn- e Our Competitive Play was ton Wilder, enacted without properties or scenery. We again convinced the judges of our superior thespian ability. At Competitive Sing, however, we went down in ignominious defeat. We marched up the steps in a body and sang as one, but coming down we were a hundred and fifty individuals. e How we ever found time to study that year, no one recalls. At odd moments we wrote English Literature and Shakespeare papers. We some- Spring is here! 139 how eked out source themes for sociology and economic courses, and write-ups of psychol- ogy experiments were a weekly chore. Our academic 'slippage, we hops, has since been compensated. Our chief interests were social rather than academic. People and their various peculiarities were more fascinating chan text books. Dormitory life revolved around a series of bull-sessions. Personalities were con- versationally torn apart and analyzed, un- scientifically, but with fervor. Cocky Sopho- moric self-assurance was the intermediate stage between the comparatively naive and conscientious actitude of the previous year, and the saner and more wholesome one, which characterized the year ensuing. We were the college nuisances through Initiation, Mascot Hunt, Competitive Sing, Service League Dances, and too frequent encounters with Honor Court. Yet we will always re- member it with a certain nostalgia, for never again will we be so sure of ourselves, and so frec from all of life's responsibilities and problems. e As Juniors, we left the Quadrangle atmosphere to dwell within the more sedate halls of Mary Harkness House or Windham. The black skeleton of the Palmer Auditorium loomed across the hockey field. Otherwise the Campus wore its familiar aspect. But this was not to last. That first week was jmemorable because of the Hurricane, whichblew girls against trees, and bowed trees to the ground. That night we sat in darkened rooms watch- ing the fire in New London. Candles and sun- shine supplied the only light for a week. Drinking water was boiled in Knowlton and rationed. No one could leave Campus. But classes continued as usual, and we sat to- gether in the living-rooms at night. Catas- trophe as it was, the resultant excitement, and those companionable evenings complete- ly overshadowed the inconveriences. It fostered a fecling of comradeship we had seldom sensed heretofore. Town and Campus eventually resumed a normal aspect, except for the conspicuous absence of many costly and proudly planted trees. But Ocean Beach was a crazy shambles, and we held a moment of silence for the demolished Tzzy's. Freshmen Sisters soon asked advice Hurricane! about marcters from curtain hanging to getting along amicably with the faculty. Service League, with our assistance, entertained them at a reception and fashion show. We borrowed some of their clothes, renovated our own, and were models of what the sartorially elegant collegiennes should wear during week-ends away, and the mornings thereafter. Harkuess Juniors 140 e The Class officers for the year 0f1938-39 were Lucy Dix, President; Ann- ette Osborne, Vice- President; Mary Heedy, and Barbara Wynne, Treasurer; Secretary. e The fall passed kaleidoscopi- cally with football week-ends, study, touch-football games on Campus, and House-parties. Mrs. Harkness spread the initial smear of mortar upon the corner- stonefor theChapel. President Blunt, Dr. Laubenstein and other notables add- ed the finishing touches to an im- pressive, but damp ceremony. The ground was to be broken soon after for Bill Hall, the future home of the science and art departments. Buck Lodge, in the Aboretum, was used for picnics, and when the lake was frozen, it provided a convenient fire for toe-warming. Thanksgiving and Christmas flashed by, and we managed to struggle through the mid-year third degree. e Shortly thereafter, inquisitive Sopho- 141 mores dogged our cautious footsteps, for the annual Mascot Hunt began. Our committee concealed its machinations well, so well, that not even their fellow classmates discovered them. Nevertheless, at Junior Banquet, Jun- iors quaked as the Sophomore telegram was opened. The mind of a Sophomore must fol- low the same deluded line from year to year; they had decided that the mascot was a flag- pole. Our president uncovered, after the proper moment of suspense, a drawing of Coming Attraction Fanning Hall, carved in stone. Our gift to the school was a carved inscription for the door of the Administration Building. The clue for which our hecklers had vainly searched, was on a piece of paper screwed in a light socket in the Greek room by Nat Maas, Chairman of the Mascot Committee. Thus Junior Banquet was an assured success. We appeared en masse, decorated with cor- The annual Prom Picnic sages, the gencrous gifts of our Freshman Sisters. The Faculty members present outdid themselves in delivering words of wisdom, cloaked in wit. The toastmistress made apt analogies between their speeches and liqueurs. If taken internally, this combination would have proven disastrous, but as we only im- bibed mentally, we left with a plcaL;ant glow. e A large contingent of the Iu:lalss spent Spring vacation in Bermuda, cydling from beach to Twenty-One Club, to the unarry and back, to change clothes and dance at the Princess. After Spring vacation, rehearsals started for The Birthday of the Infanta, by Oscar Wilde. But the night of Competitive Play, we bowed to the Senior's presentation of 'Cradle Song. The names of those who made Junior Phi Beta Kappa, were announced one morning in Chapel; Margo Whittaker, Billie Bindloss, and Mary Ann Scott acknowl- edged our approving applause. e Spring began in carnest and in fun with Junior Prom week-end. The occasion warranted our lengthy preparations. The cransformation of Knowlton, into a semblance of an underwater scene, required ingenuity and brawn. We strung huge fish nets and lobster pots up behind the orchestra, and Traditional Sunday Morning Breakfast draped the walls with green hand-dyed nets, behind which lurked fish, never seen before by man or any other fish. Friday night, Andy Kirk beat out the rhythm for the dance, Saturday night, Isham Jones. Saturday after- noon we went to cocktail parties, and most of us were late to dinners at Skipper's Dock or 142 Norwich Inn, and arrived very late at the dance. Sunday morning we breakfasted on the sunny terrace of Mary Harkness, and plicd our dates with strawberries, sweet rolls, jam. Disarmed thus, we took them on at baseball. Later, we disported ourselves at picnics and unwound the week-end at the jam-session at Colonial Inn. e At the final Moonlight Sing, when the term was almost over, the Seniors re- linquished to us their position on the stone- wall. They sang the traditional songs and presented their can- dles, symbols of lead- ership and age, to us. They shed surrepti- we tious tears, as usurped their places on Congratulations, Irene! Junior Laurel Chain 143 the wall and sang the Alma Mater. We, too, were sad at che thought of their leaving, for we had rejoiced with them when they were allowed cars in the Spring they were gracious chauffeurs, and had commiserated with them when they took their General ex- aminations. And soon the glory and the misery were to be ours. Our class-members were waitresses at their Senior Prom, and bore the Laurel Chain at their Graduation. o We regrected the passing of Junior year. We had been Jolly Juniors, as the song says, in truth. The majority of us came of age and wore it lightly. We worked mod- erately, played moderately, and sinned mod- erately. Worries and complications were few. Having survived thus far in the academic struggle, we assumed that we must be fit for survival Cthe problem of Generals had not yet loomed darkly. We registered in the autumn for our Senior year. Courses were chosen with care upon the realization that this would probably be our last whack at formal education. At an early fall Chapel, we marched to the recently completed auditorium, mortar-boards atop our curls, black gowns trailing behind us. the assembled student body, Olive Before e Upon becoming Seniors, we realize that we have not always taken full advantage of some of these opportunitics; to0 often we have avoided seeming trivialities only to find that we have lost something not only worth- while but essential. The spzcific advantages of our college are known to you all, and are utilized by each of you so differently as to Mary Harkness Howse Mcllwain, our president, read the Senior Proclamation: e This is the one occasion that the Senior Class has to express its appreciation for the many opportunities which have been offered it during the past three years. o The Senior Proclamation jused to mean, in part, Senior privileges presented with a certain flippancy. Because we feel our message important enough to be worthy of your thought, we have omitted those incon- sequential particulars. preclude definition. Despite the fact that we have not always taken advantage of our life at Con- necticut, we feel that the college has given us high standards and a sound foundation upon which we can rely. Every class not only up- holds this tradition, but contributes to an even finer heritage; which heritage has been given us by twenty-one previous graduating classes. We hope that you realize, as President Blunt has recently stressed, that we are no longer a young college at this twenty-five 144 Assumption of New Dignity! year mark, and that cherefore these traditions which have been established have a firm basis. e In short, our life at Connecticut has developed in us an appreciation for those things that are truly worthwhile. We hope that your foresight and our faith in you will prompt you to utilize what is here to the utmost. e It is, therefore, with the firmest faith in Connecticut College and in the student body that we anticipate our final year.' e Our intentions, as thus declared, were serious. We threw ourselves into the What Dignity? 145 business of upholding our publicly stated opinions. The addition of Bill Hall, the Auditorium, and the Chapel, as centers of activity, made it pleasant. John Charles Thomas, the Ballet Russe, the Kolisch Quar- tet, Guiomar Novaes, Zimbalist, and the Hartford Symphony, performed at various times through the winter. The Mary Stillman Harkness Chapel was dedicared, and the Gymnasium ceased to serve as church and It is therefore with the firmest faith in Connecticut College . . assembly hall. Now it functions only as a background for exercise, and the emotional upheaval that results from the arrival or non- arrival of mail. e The March of Time filmed portions of a war picture, O'er the Ramparts We Watch'', in New London. They disguised the Gym with flags and bunting, and filmed a 0'er the Ramparts We Watch dance scene with Seniors as make-shift actresses. We waltzed before the camera in costumes typical of the period of 1914, to the lilting strains of The Roses of Picardy . We too were strained as three A. M. rolled around, and the cameras continued to grind. But acting is a remunerative profession and the prospect of seeing our faces on celluloid made us smile vivaciously, though the Kitty Kelly shoes hurt our blistered feet. o A few of our more versatile megmbers curned from screen to stage. Our Town' was pronounced the best performance yet produced at C. C. At Christmas time the art majors, aided by the speaking and singing choirs, presented the annual pageant. The picture presented was one of Fra Angelico's, the madonna in the center of the golden frame, with angels on either side. Angels, wearing lighted halos, surrounded their pedestal, and the colorfully garbed members of the medieval procession were grouped in the foreground. The breathless audience regained their voices afterwards to sing carols outside the auditorium doors. We left the following day for Christmas vacation. e A large percentage of us returned after vacation wearing rings on significant fingers. The percentage unengaged wore sct smiles and attempted to enter the prevalent We're still studying discussions concerning the attributes of Hawaii as a honeymoon locale, or the latest linen sale at Macy's. We enthused, gave showers for them, then considered the possi- bilities of getting jobs. e The Personnel Burcau passed out leaflets of questions to be filled ourt for their files, booklets to be read by prospective employers. Many prayers went unheeded, despite the intercession of the personnel bureau in our behalf. e The Class of '40 sold tickets for Blanch Yurka's performance in March, which the Sykes Fund sponsored. Although her arrival coincided with that of the ice storm, 146 receipts from the sale of tickets swelled the Fund. e We drove back from Easter vacation. The coveted cars were now ours. No more rode we in busses. No more walked we down town, or sat we wistfully at home. When the day of Generals was to0 close to permit procrastination, we reluctantly put tempta- tion in the garage, and studied. The intellec- tual orgy finally finished, we entered whole- heartedly into a Bacchanalian one. Roy answered all calls that night with, I'm sorry. She's gone away for the week-end. e And then it was our turn to pass the stone-wall on to the Juniors at Moonlight Sing, and hand them Iphegenia after the Melodrama. Commencement, with the atten- dant Senior Prom, Class Day, and Baccalaure- difficule of the four. Capacities for appreci- ating, thinking, and understanding had been developing. Now we actively utilized ac- quired tools. Seniors held the important offices in Student Government and other organizations. We tended to choose broader courses outside the range of our major subject, and more specialized ones within. Work was more individual in character. e Topics of the inevitable bull-sessions switched abruptly from men and clothes to evaluation of the four years spent here. These varied with the individual, and corresponded, for the most part, with their reasons for coming here, as stated Freshman year. Whether Friendships, ability to earna living, or things even less tangible were sought, the College has done its part in filling the bill. Just a Poor 0ld Senior ate Service, was soon over and we left for home, carrying in head or hand the accumu- lated possessions of four years, plus one diploma. e Our last year was undoubtedly the most profitable and, consequently, the most 147 The truism with which well-mean- ing adults have admonished us to make the most of the happiest years of our life is not entirely true. They have been wonderful, yes. But we optimistically hope we've been pre- paring for better ycars t0 come. We hate to ' Just A-Looking for a Lovin Man feel that the best is behind us. In a way, we are anxious to leave and put our ideas to the test. Knowledge is not an end in itself; its value lies in application. As Confucius says, Study leads to conduct, and conduct to further study. Learning is wisdom manifesting itself in conduct. Our ideas, as we leave, may possibly be the same ones we had upon entrance. But they are no longer merely the trdcks of tradition and custom winding through our minds. They have been subjected to compari- son, analysis and criticism, and will always be susceptible to change. Perhaps our chief asset will be the habit of interpreting what we see and hear with logical tentativeness. The chaotic state of world affairs in cransition is making its impression. We won- der and are uncertain, as we leave the Ivory Tower. We have been shelcered and protected. Our actions have been curtailed, though not our thought. Our actions will always be subject to the limitations of some form of insticution and custom. It is for us to see that we aren't swept away blindly, and involved in the wrong ones. We have lived life as we have spoken our words. We knew how to pronounce them, but did not know their meaning. May we expound our theories with humility, until experience shows them to be wise and practicable.
