From Twelve to Twelve, life at East Caro- lina Teachers College is full of happen- ings, some sad and some gay, but each and everyone of us would not give up our four years of college life. Some of you think college is hard, studies and restrictions filling up your day. But twenty years from now when you take down this annual to look back over your college career, and see our theme, we hope it will help you to turn back the clock of Time. Each college career is divided into four distinct divisions. You Seniors have just finished the College Clock , whereas you Juniors are only three-fourths way around the Clock . Sophomores and Freshmen, you may only fill up the first half of our College Clock , but in only a few years you will be where the Seniors are today. Make every one of your minutes in the Clock of College count. B.K. DEDICATION To The Honorable F. C. Harding, friend and coun- selor we, the students of East Carolina Teachers College, affectionately dedicate the 1941 edition of the Tecoan. THE HONORABLE F. C. HARDING % :■.« CAMPUS SCENES 1 ' 2T. CAMPUS SCENES . . ' - DR. LEON R. MEADOWS President Thus far your life has been spent in what is generally known as the period of preparation; soon you will leave college for the purpose of taking upon your shoulders the full duties and responsibilities of adult citizenship. We hope and have cause to believe that you will take with you the ability to solve many of the problems that now face civilization, and the courage to undertake bravely their solution; suc- cessful efforts in this task will require knowledge, cooperation, char- acter, tolerance, wisdom, and a proper sense of justice to others. Your Alma Mater wishes for you the best that you are worthy to receive. Leon R. Meadows. President. DR. HERBERT REBARKER Dean of Men The yesterdays in ceaseless, stern array Recede into the ever-lengthening past ; In the flaming forge of fate each one is cast. Each moulded in the likeness of today, Tomorrow ' s vital link with yesterday. The noisy film of passing time fleets fast On the silent screen of life, until at last The imagery dims and quickly fades away. Each yesterday is but a mute portrait Of joys and ills, fond hopes, good deeds and bad, Kind thoughts, sweet dreams, ambition, love and hate, All interwoven in the fabric ' s plaid. With the backward turn of the fateful hands of time The yesterdays reveal our life ' s design. ANNIE L MORTON Dean of Women Many of our grandmothers were great believers i n patchwork quilts. These little pieces of cloth represent the family , they would say. In the quilts some squares were finer than others depending upon the workman- ship and materials used. In many respects our college standards and traditions resemble a patchwork quilt. Each is the outgrowth of some idea or ideal of former members of our col- lege family.

L WOMEN ' S STUDENT The Women ' s Student Government As- sociation at East Carolina Teachers Col- lege unites the women students as no other organization does. Through unity it endeavors to help each student ad- just herself to the responsibilities of good citizenship. Student government functions specifically through a council elected by the student body and by the classes. The council this year began its First Row: Emily Murphy, Rebecca Shanks, Mary Grant Bailey, Ruth Britt. Second Row: Celia Blanche Dail, Mary Elliot, Myra Godfrey, Shirley Johnson. Third Row: Elizabeth Noe, Wilda Royal I, Virginia Whitley. GOVERNMENT ASSOCIATION work in the fall by helping with fresh- man week. Throughout the year it has been the purpose of student government to firmly instill in each member a clear- er understanding of the functions of the body and a spirit of loyalty and co- operation. MEN ' S STUDENT OFFICERS PRES. OF M S. G A Walter Rogers VICE-PRESIDENT Thomas Cox SECRETARY-TREASURER James Bullock The Men ' s Student Government Coun- cil this year has realized most of its objectives. Working under a new con- stitution installed by the council last year, a broader and newer outlook has been carried out through the year. Due to the larger enrollment of men ' s students, the Council ' s work has been increased and a more intensified pro- gram of orientation has been carried out. Full cooperation of the men stu- dents made this program highly suc- cessful and the ideals of the Men ' s Stu- dent Association of democracy and fair- ness have been realized to the fullest extent. GOVERNMENT ASSOCIATION First Row. William Merner, William Davidson, Howard Adams. Second Row: Jessie Gray, Metsel Simmon YOUNG WOMEN ' S REBECCA ROSS President SARA GORHAM Vice-President CHARLOTTE SHEARIN Secretory VIRGINIA WHITLEY Treasurer The Young Women ' s Christian Association this year has attempted to explore and interpret the true meaning of Christianity and to inspire the girls on the campus to shape their lives more in accordance with its principles. It has offered Christian fel- lowship through Sunday and Friday evening Vespers, Morning Watch, and by send- ing delegates to the intercollegiate conferences in the state, by exchanging deputations with Duke, State, and Wake Forest, and by having a Religious Emphasis Week with Dr. Wieman as chief speaker. The two final services of the college year were the beautiful symbolic programs, The House of Comradeship and the candlelight service at Commencement. Two of the most elaborate programs of the year were pageants, one at Christmas and the other at Easter. The social affairs of the year have been a party to the Freshmen, buffet dinners, and teas. Knitting for the Red Cross has brought groups together socially. The president attended the President School at Union Theological Seminary, Co- lumbia University, New York, for six weeks last summer, and she and two delegates attended the Blue Ridge Conference. CHRISTIAN ASSOCIATION Committees Young Women ' s Christian Association: Grace Ross, Rebecca Shanks, Irene Mitcham, Rachel Farrior, Bessie Faye Hunt, Edna Mitchell, Wilda Royal I, Erlene Sawyer. YOUNG MEN ' S OFFICERS President Vernon Kueremeyer Vice-President James Whitfield Secretary Samuel H, Crandell Treasurer Albert Maness FACULTY ADVISORS Dr Herbert ReBarker Mr J B Cummings (r V This is the Y.M.C.A. ' s second year on the campus. We were organized in the spring of 1939 and have been steadily growing ever since. Our purpose is the realization of a full and creative life through a growing knowledge of God. We have tried to bring this about through vesper services. Last summer we sent Charles Marks, our chairman of Christian Education to the Pres- ident ' s School at Columbia University in New York. We have also taken part in the State Y conferences in Raleigh and Durham this year. We entertained all the men students several times at the Campus Building. This has been a successful year for the Y , and we hope it will be more so next year. CHRISTIAN ASSOCIATION First Row: Jerome Donaldson, Norman Wilkerson, Robert Hollar Second Row: Charles Marks, Harold Taylor JUNIOR Y CLUB The Freshman Y Club is a branch of the Young Wom- an ' s Christian Association, and although it is a new organi- zation on our campus, it has tried to fulfill the purpose of its sponsors; to make for its members a full and creative life through a growing knowledge of God . The Fresh- man Y owes much to Rebecca Ross, president of the Y. W. C. A., who helped organize our club and has done much toward its success. Our organization has charge of morning watch three times a week and has worked for attendance at vesper services. Its chief aims are to help freshman girls be loyal to their religious training and to develop religious leadership. LYLE REID STARLING President SIGMA PHI ALPHA PHI SIGMA CHAPTER The French Club of East Carolina Teachers College was organized in 1924 under the Greek letters Phi Sigma , with Professor R. C. Deal, head of the foreign language department, its advisor. The club works with the idea of encouraging the study of French and of fostering and developing a spirit of friendship and scholastic attainment among its members. In 1939 the organization became the Phi Sigma Chapter of Sigma Pi Alpha, a national honorary fraternity for stu- dents of foreign languages. Miss Marguerite Zelle Austin, who came to the department last winter, was this year chosen by the club as co-sponsor with Mr. Deal. The two advisors aided the club in pro- ducing a play in French, in formulating plans for a visit to the Charleston Magnolia gardens, and in entertaining alumni at a late winter dance. PAULINE ABE ' . President THE JARVIS DEBATING CLUB The Jarvis Debating Club was organized by a group of students in 1939. Its purpose is to foster interest in debating, and to give training and experience in general forensic work. The aim of the club members is to find enjoyment in this pleasant and extremely practical extra curricula activity. It is hoped that in the future the Club will command the interest of a larger group. JENNINGS BALLARD President • 1r M Ki ENGLISH CLUB With the supporting interest of its adviser, Dr. Lucile Turner, head of the English department, and of the other members of the department, the English Club has been successful in maintaining a spirit of friendship as well as a desire for high scholastic attainment among the English majors. The highlight of this year ' s program was a visitor from Guilford College, Miss Dorothy Gilbert, professor of Eng- lish, who spoke to the English majors on Emily Dickinson and her works. Interesting personalities of the city, the col- lege, and the student body also furnish the club with enter- taining and intellectual programs during the school year. PAULINE ABEYOUNIS President ALUMNI DAUGHTERS AND SONS OF E. C T. C The Alumni Daughters and Sons was organized to promote a closer feeling of friendship among the sons and daughters of the alumni and to preserve the memory of the students of the past. Miss Mamie E. Jenkins, an authority on the history of the college, is the faculty adviser of the club. FRANCES ROEBUCK President MATH CLUB The aim and practice of the Math Club is to learn to ap- preciate more the wonders and greatness of mathematics and how it has come to be what it is today, as well as to explore the recreational side of life. These aims have been success- fully accomplished during the past year mainly through the efforts of our program chairman, Margaret D. Moore, with the help of our advisers, Miss Maria Graham, Miss Louise Williams, and Miss Elizabeth England. As a background for our study of progress in the field of Mathematics, we have attempted, in recent programs, to acquaint ourselves with the lives and accomplishments of those who are outstanding in its past and present history. HOME ECONOMICS CLUB Believing strongly in the supreme worth of the individual, our club proposes to develop personality, leadership, initia- tive, and poise. Attempting to do this, it is our hope that we may simply serve our community, our schools, and our families . The Home Economics Club of East Carolina Teachers Col- lege had, as its outstanding activity of the school year, the annual North Carolina Association of Student Clubs over which Agnes Watson, state president and member of local chapter, presided. Also featured on the Club ' s calendar were: lecture on Effect of the War on the French home by Mr. James Fleming of Greenville; participation of club members through class in a a Christmas contest sponsored by the Woman ' s Club; Seasonable reception of Woman ' s Glee Club; a skit in February by Club member; and hostess to visiting guests of the state department. „ Jfc i - THE ASSOCIATION FOR CHILDHOOD EDUCATION The Student Branch of the Association for Childhood Edu- cation at East Carolina Teachers College is a member of the National Association. The purpose of this organization shall be to gather and disseminate knowledge of the movement for the education of young children; to bring into active cooperation all childhood education interests, including parent education; to promote the progressive type of education in nursery school, kindergarten and primary grades, and to raise the standard of the professional training for teachers and lead- ers in this field. Article 1 1 A.C.E. constitution. The Student Branch during the past year sponsored an Elementary Education Dinner Meeting to which all Primary and Grammar Majors were invited. Another activity was the editing of a News Bulletin for the North Carolina Branch of the Association for Childhood Education. ADA ROSE YOW President THE COMMERCE CLUB The purpose of the Commerce Club this year, as hereto- fore, has been to better acquaint the students of the Com- merce Department with each other, to foster interest in clerical work and in teaching, and to work together for the mutual benefit of its members and the Commerce Depart- ment as a whole. As its main project this year, the Commerce Club gave a luncheon for the Commerce Alumni. The luncheon was held on Homecoming Day, May 31. The undertaking was financed by having a bridge tourna- ment, and sponsoring a movie. The monthly programs of the Club consist of recreational programs, and programs that are informative and helpful to students in their work after graduation. ALPHA IOTA SORORITY ZETA DELTA CHAPTER East Carolina Teachers College and the local Zelta Delta Chapter of Alpha Iota Sorority, International Honorary Business Sorority, take particular pride in the fact that ours is the first teachers col- lege to be granted a charter of membership by Alpha Iota Sorority. Ours is also the first Sorority to be established at East Carolina Teachers College. The Zeta Delta Chapter was organized on our campus on March 30, 1940, and twenty-four charter members were initiated and the officers installed in a beautiful, formal, candlelight ceremony. Miss Velma Lowe and Miss Lena Ellis are the sponsors of the Sorority and charter members. Requirements for election to this honorary organization are superior scholarship in commerce, leadership, per- sonality, and character. Aside from the pledging and initiating of nine new members this year, the active members were guests of the pledges at a party during the Christmas season; it has brought to the College a speaker who returned recently from Europe; and sponsored several programs in which both campus and off-campus speakers partici- pated in discussing national and international affairs. The Sorority sent a group of members to the Mid-Atlantic Conclave held in Washington. D. C, October 18-20. In the spring it brought to the campus specialists in personality development.

FUTURE TEACHERS OF AMERICA The Robert H. Wright Chapter of Future Teachers of America has completed its second successful year under the guidance of Miss Emma L. Hooper, sponsor of the club, and Miss Frances Wahl, faculty adviser. This year the club is affiliated with both the North Carolina Educa- tion Association and the National Education Association. The aim of our organization has been fully realized in the interesting and entertaining programs sponsored this year. The Chapter was responsible for bringing Dr. Joy Elmer Morgan, Editor of the National Education Association Journal, to our campus for two days this spring. COLLEGE BAND The East Carolina Teachers College Band, organized dur- ing the winter quarter of 1938, is beginning its fourth year of progress. This year will long be remembered as a dark one for the band, for we lost in death our much loved friend and director, Mr. Dean C. Tabor. We are, however, getting back in stride under the capable leader- ship of Mr. Dittmer and we are looking forward to mak- ing next year a truly successful year for the band. COLLEGE ORCHESTRA To play beautiful music artistically requires a rare combina- tion of aesthetic feeling and skill coupled with a dogged perseverance. As the E. C. T. C. Orchestra grows, its mem- bers who continue to strive for the beautiful performance of good music become ever more thrilled with the oppor- tunity for the enjoyment of life which such activities afford. They also profit through this activity in becoming keenly sensitive to symphonic music wherever and whenever it is pla yed. It is expected that all of East Carolina will yet feel the influence of orchestral playing through the organi- zation of school orchestras by those now playing in this organization. A. L. DITTMER A. L DITTMER Director COLLEGE CHOIR The college choir was organized to provide oppor- tunity for students to sing and to love some of the beautiful mixed chorus music. Its repertoire has in- cluded some of the old polyphonic music of the Sixteenth Century, some modern choral arrange- ments, and various types between these extremes. As an organization, it has delighted various groups, and will continue to do so as long as it continues to progress as it has begun to. WOMEN ' S GLEE CLUB Forty select voices in rich blended tones are proof of the unti ring interest with which the Women ' s Glee Club works to present seasonable performances for the enjoy- ment of students and faculty in the college and people of the surrounding community. Each year the organization renders Christmas and Easter programs a cappella and plays an important part in the an- nual commencement musical recital. Besides the scheduled appearances, the club contributes to chapel programs and lends inspiration to outstanding college events. Purple choir robes which the members used this year have merited favorable comment from the supporting audience and help to accent the quality of a finished product . MISS GUSSIE KUYKENDALL Director INTERNATIONAL RELATIONS CLUB The International Relations Club was organized in the Winter of 1940, and brings together those History and Social Science majors who have reached sophomore stand- ing and all others who have twenty-one hours credit in History and Social Science. Though very young, the club is engaging in many activities in the regular monthly meetings. The main purpose of the club is to learn and understand more fully the international situation. The club receives at regular intervals books, materials and new current problems for discussion and research from the Carnegie Endowment. One of the main activities is sending delegates to the Southern International Relations Conference each year. Jl ' MAUDE SAWYER President CHI PI PLAYERS The Chi-Pi Players were organized in the spring of 1938 to give students practical experience in dramatic interpretation and pro- duction, to piomote interest in dramatic activity, to develop the creative talent of students and to encourage the reading and wit- nessing of better plays. During the year 1940-41 this organization has successfully produced The Skull and Wuthering Heights and has brought dramatics to a position of respect and appreciation among the students, fac- ulty and alumnae of this college. East Carolina Teachers College has benefited greatly by the work of the CHI-PI Players in that a complete new stage lighting system has been installed at the expense of the club and much advertise- ment of the college has been carried out by the productions. Also, the knowledge of dramatic art gained while a member of this organization has been of untold value to students who have entered the teaching profession. DAVID BREECE President YOUNG DEMOCRATIC CLUB The Young Democratic Club, chartered under the State organiza- tion, conclued the year with a paid membership of more than 500. In the annual convention in Raleigh the club became a part of the College District formed at the convention. Mildred Laxton Andrews was named vice-chairman. For the first time in the history of the school East Carolina Teachers College participated in the State Student Legislature. Kenneth Woolard was named Presi- dent pro-tem. Chriss Humphrey was chairman of the drive on the campus to re-elect President Roosevelt. Last fall the club play- ed host to the college district at a dance, to be made an annual af- fair. It sponsored a visit of Congressman Herbert Bonner in the Winter Quarter. New officers were installed at a banquet program in the Spring. The club has done much to foster interest in political affairs of the State and Nation, as students are a part of them now and will have a vital interest in them in later life. DR. HILLDRUP Advisor SCIENCE CLUB The aim and purpose of the Science Club is to inspire science stu- dents and to stimulate in them a desire for a deeper, more meaning- ful study and to challenge them to become more conscious of the scientific world. Adopting as its project for the year the sponsorship of the College Museum, the Science Club for 1940-41 has gone forward in its work. Through the cooperation of students, faculty, and interested outsiders, actual museum work has been done and many interesting programs presented — programs given by students, by guest speakers, and by showing scientific movies. Through its social meetings the Club has created a sense of fellowship and friendship among its members. MARY D HORNE President PUBLICATIONS BOARD The Publications Board, a little-known committee on the campus, is responsible for the actions of the three college publications — The Teco Echo. The Tecoan, and the Pieces of Eight. In addition to this the com- mittee certifies eligibles for offices to t he major posi- tions on these publications. DORIS BLALOO President EDITORIAL STAFF PIECES O ' EIGHT As this is only our second year of publication we think our- selves justified in the improvement which this year ' s staff has wrought in Pieces O ' E gbt. As most students are aware, the trend in our editorial policy throughout this year has been away from a light humor magazine toward a more literary publication. We feel that we have been successful in presenting the student body with a higher type of publication and hope next year ' s staff will be equally successful. BUSINESS STAFF PIECES O ' EIGHT This year the Business Staff has worn out inches of shoe leather seeking those elusive creatures that are indispensible in financing any publication — ads. The staff is justly proud of the results of this pavement-pounding. It has been through the interest and co- operation of our advertisers and the members of the staff that the magazine has been a financial success. To those advertisers who couldn ' t say, No , we express our sincere appreciation. We hope that we have helped them as much as they have helped us. To all others who have helped us in any way, we take this oppor- tunity to express our gratitude. PATRICIA BROOKS Editor KATHLEEN K. LEWIS Business Manager JAMES WHITFIELD Editor MARY AGNES DEAL Business Manager BUSINESS STAFF OF TECO ECHO The policy of the advertising staff of the Teen Echo has been to serve the student body and faculty as a source of information, a medium of publicity, and a financing factor of the paper. Due to the cooperation of the student body and people of Greenville the advertising staff willingly attributes whatever success they have made. TECO ECHO EDITORIAL STAFF During the year just ended the Teco Echo endeavored to support what it believed to be right and opposed what it thought to be wrong. It held no malice toward any in- dividual or group of the student body and presented the news as it happened. The Teco Echo achieved two distinct purposes — pro- ducing a newspaper and serving as a labora- tory to train journalists. It has upheld the principles of a free press, one of the last citadels of Democracy. The staff, as inter- preters of the ever-changing trend of events in our environment, have endeavored to per- petuate practices that tend to elevate the American way of life. If we have been suc- cessful to that end, then our efforts have not been in vain. THE 1941 TECOAN The business staff is justly proud of the amount of advertising it has obtained this year, and is grateful to the firms who have helped to make the publication of the 1941 yearbook a financial success. It wishes to acknowledge the valuable assistance, for both staffs of Herbert Hitch, Charlotte Engraving Co., Char- lotte Engraving Co., Charlotte; Frank Fleming, Lassiter Press, Charlotte; and M. F. Dunbar, Dunbar Studio, Charlotte. The staffs also wish to thank all students who have helped us in any way — there have been many. SSi BETTY KEUZENKAMP Editor LALLAH B WATTS Business Manager We, the staff of The Tecoan present this, the 1941 edition of the yearbook of East Carolina Teachers College, to the students. With hopes and fears we give and take. If we have made mis- takes, we apologize. If we have pleased you, we are glad. We wish here to thank Dr. Slay and Mr. Browning, our advisors, who have helped us throughout the year. We also wish to thank the student body for their cooperation. We wish to express our sincere appre- ciation to Matt Phillips, staff photog- rapher, who made all our Clock pic- tures. Also we thank Hampton Noe, who has been helpful in many ways, and Mildred Andrews, snapshot editor, for the many and varied pictures ap- pearing in the snapshot section. Again we say to all of you, Thank you . • -  fcfe p rRSH MRS. C. F. KEUZENKAMP, A.B. Sponsor OF EDITOR 1941 TECOAN MRS. L. A.

Evidence of the success of the Emerson society may be recognized by the effi- ciency with which the annual fall dance was sponsored, the splendid programs given at the regular meetings, the play presented in the winter, and the whole- some attitudes and training received through the association of its members.

The year began with a successful tea dance in the Wright Building for the Fresh- man Class. The presentation of the one act tragedy ' Mansions was one of the greatest events of the year. The Mid-winter dance sponsored by the Poe Society was carried out in a spirit of frivolity and pleasing originality. The Poes are planning to sponsor many more successful activities in the future.

The highlights of our year have been: An informal tea dance which was spon- sored by the three societies to welcome the freshman and the intersociety one act play contest in which our talent was well organized. The Spring dance sponsored by the La- nier Society was marked by gaiety and originality.

The Varsity Club this year has been striving toward harmony and cooperation among athletes. The Varsity Club play and dance, and a Lil Abner skit presented at the Pitt Theater were some of the major under- takings of the club. In conjunction with the W. A. A., the Varsity Club has at- tempted to sponsor recreation on the campus by keeping the Wright Building open on Sundays. FOOTBALL SQUAD Back in the fall of 1940 rumors began circulating from the Pirate Camp that the Teachers at last had something to be proud of in the way of a football team. As an inspired team — managed by a new coach and full of new player ' s blood — went from one victory to another, the student body began to really take an interest in their team. The 19-in edition of the Pirate football squad made one of the finest records that an E. C. T. C. grid team has ever established. Their wins greatly outnumbered their losses and their accomplishments on the gridiron promise to lead the way in a Renaissance movement in athletics here at East Carolina Teachers College. FOOTBALL COACH Coach John , as John Chrisenbury is affectionately called by the fellows who play on his teams, began this, his first year on our campus, by coaching the most successful foot- ball team that East Carolina Teachers College has produced in years. He guided the team from victory to victory and gave basis for the hope that the Pirates will someday pro- duce football teams that can carry the banner of accomplish- ment as high as do our other athletic teams.

' s teams to shoot at. BASEBALL Directed by coach Gordan Gilbert the 1940 Pirate Gashouse gang made an enviable- record on the baseball diamond. Defeated rarely, and displaying a hard righting spirit coupled with a perfect example of coopera- tion, the spunky Pirate club emerged victori- ous in most of their conference trials. A hard-hitting and dependable fielding outfit proved too much for weaker adversaries and when the last out was made E. C. T. C. found herself with a team of whose record she could be justly proud. GORDAN GILBERT (Baseball Coach) Coach Gordan Gilbert was greatly responsi- ble for the outstanding record left by the 1940 Pirate Baseball Club. His untiring efforts and capable management o f the team members will long be remembered as out- standing factors in a successful season. A good coach should be a combination of a teacher, a diplomat, and a natural-born lead- er, — Gordan Gilbert was all of these. il -iROLi ■ ■ ■ ■ 3 i 7 i ■ r Wt 4, tXST I WOLIN4 mmik Under the guidanceship of Miss McElwain the W.A.A. has sponsored many events on the campus. The outstanding event was the dance (seen above) . Snow floated down on the dancers like never before. Come with us swimming, bicycling or what not. You will always be guaranteed a won- derful time. HELEN McElWAIN TENNIS Tennis is officially a major spring sport yet it continues for almost the entire school year. The season is climaxed by the participation of girls playing and elimination tournament. These tourna- ments challenge the ability of as many girls as wish to come out. Pictured are the top ranking players who make up the tennis varsity. WOMEN ' S ATHLETIC ASSOCIATION The Women ' s Athletic Association was organized in 1912 and since that time it has been one of the most active organizations on the campus. Regular monthly meetings are held to discuss the athletic activities on campus and provides a social hour for its members. This organization struggled unsuccessfully until the past few years when it became an active and en- thusiastic group under the direction of Miss Helen McElwain. The Physical Education Department has cooperated with the Association to sponsor various athletic activities. EILEEN TOMLINSON MYRTLE HOPKINS President Vice-President MAYBELLE POLLOCK ESTELLE EDWARDS Secretary Treasurer In order to give more students a better chance to become proficient in a greater variety of sports, it has been the aim of the Association to promote an intramural program, introducing, a new point system. This program includes field hockey, soccer, volley ball, basketball, Softball, tennis, bicycling, hiking, archery, table tennis, croquet, horseshoe, badmiton, shuffleboard, and darts. Points are awarded for participation in these activities and awards consist of a medal for 500 points, letter for 1000 points, sweater for 1500 points, and a statue trophy for 2000 points. It is the chief objective of such a program to create among the students a sense of fair play, loyalty, sacrifice, respect, cooperation, and sportsmanship. Already the results have been a realization of a greater feeling of unity within the stu- dent body as a whole. HEADS OF ESTHER PARKER Head of Volley Ball DOT DALRYMPLE Head of Tennis MARGARET WOOD Head of Soccer DORIS ROBERTS Head of Softball NICK PROCTOR Head of Basketball The Women ' s Athletic Association Cabinet is made up of the Association advisor, Miss McElwain, Association officers, and Heads of Sports. It is the official body of the Associa- tion. But the success and spirit of our Association depends as much upon the individual member as it does upon the cabinet members. SOFTBALL In the spring at college as well as in the cities our minds turn to softball. More enthusiasm than ever before has been shown this spring by the number of participants out. The seasonal practices were brought to a close by a tournament held between the classes and by the selection of an honorary varsity — some of its members being shown here. DEPARTMENTS LOUISE LINDSAY ELIZABETH BURNS RACHEL BLANCHARD MARGARET WHITE CAMILLE GASKINS lead of Individual Sports Head of Hiking Head of Hockey Head of Archery Head of Bicycles RUTH HALL MARY FRANCES WILLIAMS AUDREY STANLEY PEARL HOUSE ALL-STAR INTRAMURALS BASKETBALL The basketball teams had a most successful season under the guid- ance of coach McElwain and manager Nick Proctor. Approxi- mately one hundred fifty girls participated this year. The high- light of the season was the game played by the honorary varsities pictured here. SOCCER Soccer, a popular fall sport meet- ing three times a week attracted over forty girls this year, thus proving how worthwhile it is. These girls can really kick that ball and some of the roommates are usually glad when the sport is over. The senior - freshman team won the final tournament by defeating the junior-sopho- more team. At the end of the tournament a varsity team was chosen, the team being shown here. VOLLEY BALL Intramural and interclass volley ball furnished an interesting fall sport for one hundred girls. Dur- ing this season there is instruc- tion for beginning, intermediate, and advanced groups. After the practices are completed, a Round Robin Tournament is held. FIELD HOCKEY Field Hockey is a major sport of the fall season. Practices are held three times a week, and this year approximately fifty girls partici- pated in the sport. And believe it or not — the y really had fun in spite of the knocks and falls. The junior-sophomore team won the final tournament by defeating the senior-freshman team. Those chosen for honorary varsity from the four class teams are pictured here. FEATURES This year the Tec.oan staff has tried to be fair and impartial with all in the choice of the Features. We like you, wanted to put all sixteen in the section but space would not permit. Each class elected four candidates. Each candidate had a picture made and turned them in to us. The Hon- orable F. C. Harding then received the pic- tures without any names on them. He tried to be fair with all, and the following are the Eight Features he picked.
