BOOK I resmnen Trembling with fear, excitement and expectation, yet reveling in the |oy of our new found glory, we came to constitute the Freshman Class. Our first task was that of finding our rooms, registering for classes and adapting ourselves to our new environment. With these duties in mind, we marched to classes to the melodious music of the Chapel Chimes. Bewilderment and confusion met us at every corner. Dr. McCowan, however, made us feel at ease with our responsibilities and became one of our first new friends. The friendly and sympathetic greetings from the faculty and upper Classmen caused us to feel much more comfortable. But when we began to relax and enjoy the routine of college life, the storm struck with all its fury. Upper classmen began to dictate our every move. The unpopular Pigtail hair-do invaded our curly locks. The customary use of cosmetics was reversed. Girls were denied these beauty-aids while application was made to the facial contours of the male Rats. Clothes were worn backwards, Rat Court was attended, and Air Raid precautions were practiced Along with every other part of college life came the excitement of Rush Week, Bids for membership in sororities and fraternities were extended. Here we found our greatest problem. Which bid should we accept! ' Finally a decision was reached Then the glory of Rushing ended and we became lowly Pledges. The storm is now over. Quietness and Confidence prevails. In reviewing the ac- tivities of the year, we realize that we have only tasted the glamor, the excitement, the joys and thrills of college routine. President DeWITT FARABEE Vice-President Secretary MARTHA CARRAWAY ANNIE LAURIE SUMMERS Treasurer RUBY ADAMS Senator CAROL CLARKE
