MILDRED MURPHY SCHROTH President of the Association oa Some of the Alumnae with Father Cappel at the Banquet. Dorothea Hayes addresses the abe Alumnae Association The Georgian Court College Alumnae Association is a loyal group of more than one thousand members, all cf whom are keenly interested in the welfare of Alma Mater. This year their interests was most clearly demonstrated by the success of the first annual Alumnae Fund campaign. The Alumnae Fund, a program of voluntary giving, has replaced the old dues system. Under this new plan each member of the Association contributes to the college whatever amount she wishes. Proceeds of the 1953 Fund appeal provided a full tuition scholar- ship, published the Court Alumnae Newsletter, and partially sup- ported the college Public Relations Office. The affairs of the Association are directed by the Alumnae Council which is made up of the officers of the Association and representatives of each chapter. Nine active alumnae chapters are in existence and plans are under way for the establishment of two others. These alumnae groups are set up on a geographic basis. Their activities in- clude Days of Recollection, student recruiting programs, luncheons, dances, card parties, fashion shows, and the like to benefit their scholarship funds. All of the well-established chapters provide a full tuition scholarship for a girl from their area. Outstanding event of the Alumnae year is reunion week end held traditionally on the college campus during the first week end in May. Special honor is given to the five year classes and a full pro- gram of events is provided by a large committee of the Alumnae and the sisters.

BUSINESS STAFF F. Gregory, Audrey D’Ambrisi, E. Condina. The Court Page Since the time of Addison and Steele’s publication, the Spectator, newspapers have been one of thé chief mediums of effective communication to John Q. Public. With this in mind, members of the Court Page staff, the college monthly, use their originality and “Nose for news” to produce a well-rounded view of col- lege events. It is the Court Page editorial policy to give expression to the opinions and views of the students and integrate Catholic teaching and philosophy into its writing. For girls interested in the journalistic field, it offers invaluable experience in news reporting, feature and editorial writing, photography and layout. Mary Lou Wilkinson and Audrey D’Ambrisi work together as Editor and Business Manager, respectively. Interested students from all four classes are represented on the paper. Sister Mary Assumpta is the adviser and Mr. John O’Connor, instructor in journalism, is the moderator. 177 LITERARY STAFF Front Row: P. O’Connell, J. Heher, J. Innes, C. Collis, M. L. Wilkinson, R.
