Her friendly smile completely won our hearts and throughout our four years her understanding has meant much to us.

May we also recall our Alma Mater with equal pride and love and find in these pages memories that will grow priceless with the years. 1 - 08 She was, indeed, a strange creature, that deli- cate, dainty, mischievous, tender, God-fearing, in- explicable Southern girl. With her fine grain, her silken hair, her satiny skin, her musical speech; pleasure -loving, saucy, bewitching — deep down lay the bed-rock foundation of innate virtue, piety, and womanliness, on which were planted all to which human nature can hope, and all to which it can aspire. Words fail to convey an idea of what she was; as well try to describe the beauty of the rose or the perfume of the violet. To appreciate her one must have seen her, have known her, have adored her. — Thomas Nelson Page mmrnn BOOK ONE COLLEGE BOOK TWO CLASSES BOOK THREE .... FEATURES BOOK FOUR ....

It was chartered in 1838 as Greensboro Female College and is the second oldest institution for women in the South; however, it was not until 1 «4 s chat the cornerstone of the first building was laid. Its doors were opened in 1846 under the capable leadership of the Rev. Solomon lea. assisted by an able faculty. Immediately the college drew to its halls many students from the far southern states Dr. lea was succeeded in the presidency by Dr. A. M Shipp who administered the affairs of the college for three years. His successor was Dr. Charles I Deems afterwards known as the pastor of the Church of Strangers in New York City. The fourth president was Mi 1 M [ones, whose memory hundreds of noble women rise up to call blessed During his presidency the main building was burned, this necessitated the closing ol the school for ten years. The cornerstone of the new building was laid in 187 1 and in August 1873 the school again opened its doors. Dr Jones continued at the head of the institution unul his death in 1800 when he was succeeded by Dr. B. F. Dixon. His presidency extended over a period of three years; Dr. Frank L. Reid, editor of the Raleigh Christian Advocate at the time of his election, was his successor. He had fairly begun what promised to be a great and successful experience in the discharge of his duties when he was suddenly called by death. Dr. Dred Peacock, who had been a useful member of the faculty, was elected to (he presidency on the death of Dr. Reid. Because of ill health. Dr. Peacock resigned his post in 1902 when Mis 1 ucy H. Robertson was elected as his successor. Between I 5 2 and 1904 untoward conditions came upon thi collegt lis Board I I rustees, who were greatly discouraged on account of stringent financial conditions, decided to put the property in process of liquidation Later the Mam building was destroyed by fire. I he end of the institution seemed to have come. but. through the superhuman efforts I the alumnae and the cooperation of the annual conferences a new splendid building was erected in 1904 and the school opened with a very large registration A new dormitory was erected in 1 « 1 2 known as Fitzgerald Hall, named in honor of Mr. .1, V. Fitzgerald, of Linwood. N. C, who gave J I 0.000 toward its erection. In the year I ' MV Mrs. Robertson having resigned. Rev. S. B. Turrcntine. D. D. was elected president. In the fall of I ' M 7. a new dormitory was completed and opened, named Hudson Hall in memory of Mrs, Mary lee Hudson, of Shelby, N. C. whose donations to the college amount to more than $13,000. Odell Memorial was erected in 1922 at a cost ol about $180,000 for which Mr. J. A. Odell gave $100,000. This buildine, including an auditorium and conserva- tory of music, was erected in the memorv of Mrs. Mary Jane Odell, wile of Mr J, A. Odell. Greensboro College was admitted to membership in the Association of Colleges and Secondary Schools of the Southern States at the meeting of the Association held at Jackson. Miss., November 30-Deccmber 3, 1926. Election of Greensboro College to provisional membership in the National Association of Schools of Music was made at the meeting of the Association held in Milwaukee, December 28, 1934. Dr. Turrentine resigned April 18. 1934, his resignation to be effective at the close of the scholastic year lt34-1935. On May 15, 1935. Luther LaFayette Gobbel. A.B . A.M. Ph.D.. was elected president and Dr. Turrcntine was elected president emeritus and professor of Bible. Dr. Gobbel assumed the responsibilities ami active duties of the presidency at the close of commencement. May 28, 1135, Greensboro College has kept abreast of the times and is always sensitive to the demands of a changing social order. She now looks forward to a second century of even greater usefulness and service to her church and nation. Her heritage is dear, her contributions great, her future bright. The Greensboro College Creed We BELIEVE in being rather than in seeming; in the devotion to high ideals: in daring to do our duty as ice understand it. We believe in having an attentive eye. a listening ear. a busy brain. in keeping the mind clear and bright, filling it with wholesome thoughts ol life: in losing ourselves in useful industry. We believe m being worthy at all times: in having grim energy and resolute courage for the conquest of fear; in gaining confidence in our ability. We believe in service, in doing kind deeds, thinking kind thoughts, m being strong, gentle, pure and good: steady, loyal, and enduring. We believe in reverence for the truth: humility; in great aspira- tions and high ambitions: in toiling ever upward. We believe in cultivating the bright virtue of patriotism and the holy passion for friendship. We believe in studying hard, thinking quietly, speaking gently; acting frankly; in listening to the winds, the trees, the stars, and the birds, to babes and sages with open hearts: we believe in being glad, in loving all. in hating none, in doing all bravely, bearing all cheer- fully, awaiting all occasions, hurrying never. We believe in striving to gain sound knowledge, not content to simply know, hut determined to use knowledge for the highest purpose. We believe in man and woman, in God ' s unending love, and in the future. L- • v a y VHs m N r- ' n r- SENIORS Russell Gobbr. Senior Class Mascot Son of President L. L.

SENIOR CLASS HISTORY Green, greener, greenest would be sufficient critical vocabulary to describe the group of Freshmen who arrived at Greensboro College in the September of 1932. Teary-cyed and suffering from what they believed to be incurable cases of nostalgia, they filed down the tedious registration line, filling out white cards which were to play such a vital part in moulding their future. It was with utter dismay, heartache and very deep melancholy, indeed, that they blundered through the chaos of their first few days of college life.

However, this brief fit of depression soon surrendered to a series of frivoli- ties sponsored by the two literary societies of the campus, and characterized by the colloqual phrase, rush week. Apparently oblivious to the weight of their previous burdens, these same Freshmen flitted in butterfly fashion from one pink tea to another, sang the songs of both the Emersons and the Irvings, and reveled in the merry halls of each of these societies.

Brilliant streamers of purple, green and gold fluttering wildly in the bree e. shrill voices ringing out the songs of both societies, toy horns honking incessantly, the rat-a-tat-tat of miniature drums all contributed to the prevailing spirit oi merriment and confusion. Prior to the evening meal, students flocked about in the lobby, and upon the opening of the dining hall doors they scrambled like mad hatters towards the particu- lar tables at which they desired a place.

Although the foundation for many lasting friendships had been laid, familiarity with and adjustment to various phases of college life had been made during that time which has been mentioned, little had actually been done towards a real class organization, until one rainy night in October when the Freshman class congregated in the dimly-lighted chapel and cast votes for class officers. This was the first spark of unity. From that hour this infant class Ellen Singleton Edith Long Nell Jenkins Davis Greensboro.

One bright, sunny afternoon in the same October, the Freshmen joined the other students in donning their battered, out-of-door togs, and eagerly accepted the invitation to picnic with fellow members of the Athletic Associa- tion. Trucks filled with soft tawny straw were provided to carry them out to the Jefferson Country Club. After a jovial hay ride, during which time songs were sung, yells were shouted, and numerous jokes were told, they arrived at their appointed destination.

At length the fun ended as all good things do. They huddled upon the soft straw in the bottom of the truck and enjoyed a moonlight ride back to school.

An example of their capricious- ness may be illustrated by the following incident which later became known as the Alarm-Clock-Bottle-Affair. One rainy night after having caused the dean considerable consternation and anxiety by arousing excessive noise, the Freshmen arrived al an even more annoying plan of action. It was decided that all alarm clocks should be set at the hour quarter past twelve and that they be placed outside each girl ' s door in order that they might ring together in chorus.

This they did. Imagine the wrath and indignation of the frightened faculty members who. attired in frilly night caps and hurriedly-donned kimonos, sallied forth into the halls with bitter reproaches and threats of campuses and the like for their culprit neighbors. Excellent psychologists, though, these Freshmen, for by morning the dark memories of the night had been quite blotted out by the soothing effects of sleep.

For days they debated as to which dresses and hats they should carry home to shock and startle their respective neighbors, and tied red strings around their forefingers as a constant reminder not to omit such indis- pensable articles as the inimitable toothbrush, bedroom slippers, (alias mules) pet ear bobs, perfume and the like.

Silver bells, poinsettas. huge bows, holly wreathes and various other decorations were artistically arranged to carry out the idea of the joyous occasion. Heads were bowe d rever- ently as the strains of Silent Night. Holy Night were heard pealing forth from the organ in the chapel above. Needless to say, this was one of the most impressive and inspiring ceremonies ever witnessed by the new members of the college. With the cessation of the music, they sat down and began to open the various ridiculous gifts such as ABC books, celluloid ducks and candv canes, [Catherine Rohrer Charlotte Amanda Hammer High point, n.

They had no more than finished with the excitement of unwrapping their presents than an enormous platter of steaming roast turkey was placed on each table.

All the lights in the lobby were extin- guished save those pale, white, flickering, electric starlights which burned among the limbs of the tinsled fir tree which stood in the center of the lobby. Slowly the Y. W. C. A. choir descended the flight of stairs, singing Christmas Carols. They assembled around the lighted tree while one of their number read the story of the first Christmas as told in the Bible. Other carols were then sung, during which time the students placed gifts for the poor beneath the fir tree.

A brief Yuletide program was rendered by members of the Junior class, after which holiday games were played. For refreshments, ice cream and cake and salted nuts were served. Sachets in pastel colors and fancy powder pulls were extended each Freshman as favors of the party. The climax of their holiday celebrations came when they congregated in the chapel to serenade the faculty members in the wee small hours of the morning.

For days the girls sharpened the swords of their wit and polished the rifles of their memory in preparation to combat this dreaded monster. Long nights they burned the midnight oil in building ammunition with which to exterminate the fiend who stealthily grew nearer their camp. Examination began his attack at nine o ' clock one Monday morning, and the siege continued throughout the week, at the end of which time the Freshmen victoriously triumphed over the demon. Despite the fact that several of them received serious wounds, there were no mortal blows, and this class continued on its way. LiL Kirk Huggins Marshville, n. c.

Sweeping floors, making beds, dusting and the like are but mild examples of the menial tasks to which the Freshmen were assigned upon this occasion. At nine o ' clock that night they were summoned to Hudson Hall to rat-court by their elder classmates.

Consequently, the Freshmen soon returned to their own rooms. The Inter-Society reception was the paramount social affair of the year for the Freshmen, at least. After much deliberation, it was decided to set aside the first Saturday night before Valentine ' s Day for the celebration of this occas- ion.

Finally the pic- turesque setting was completed, and the weary workers drew back to view their handiwork with pride and satisfaction. Between the hours of eight and eight- thirty the maids trotted breathlessly and incessantly up and down the steps to the flustered young ladies to present the cards of the gentlemen in waiting below.

The gaiety and fun ended at midnight however, when the guildcd chariot changed back into a yellow pumpkin of common garden variety.

Because their ' Big Sisters had shown them such patience and guidance in adjusting themselves to college life, because they had shown them such love and understanding in all ways, they sought to return to them in however small a measure, a bit oi the kindness which thev had so freely bestowed upon them.

May Day culminated the important occasions of the Freshman ' s College year. For days they practiced stepping and swinging together until they grew dizzy and gasped for breath. At last the festive day arrived and the Freshmen attired in rainbow colored dresses tripped the light fantastic around the maypole to a light and delicate air played by the college orchestra.

The beginning of their Sophomore year was touched by a note of pathos and a note of cheer, for upon re-entering school they learned that although they had lost some of their former class mates, others had simultaneously arrived to take their place. The majority of the newcomers had attended Davenport College the year before. It was not long, however, before the strangers were dipped into the melting pot and cordially welcomed into the family circle of their class.

Needless to say. at this time they found themselves very definitely classified with the members of the former group. But this class was not to be daunted by such a shadow of a task.

It was generally acknowledged that few or none of the members were overly scholastic, but rather more prone to pursue the pleasurable and entertaining phases of life. They loved life and they lived with gusto and enthusiasm. Perhaps those schooled in the mysteries of psychology might describe this period as an expression of the adolescent nature. Though constant was the ridicule and reprimanding, there yet remained one ever- confident of their abilities.

Every Tuesday and Thursday nights Junior Tea Garden was held at which lime the various members of the class volunteered to assume the responsibility of salesmen for the foods sold by the class, and to guard each penny which fell into the cash register.

Although they did not completely forfeit their zest of gaiety and mirth, they began to look upon their work and indeed, upon life in general, with a more serious aspect.

In fact, before their six weeks of instructing the youth of the land was completed, it is quite probable that the teachers would willingly and unanimously have agreed with the college official who described the first few days of this profession as similar to a bug-a-bear. Nevertheless, these Seniors pursued their tasks with infinite persistence. They daily hiked to the various schools in which they taught, burned the midnight oil while laboring over lesson plans and dreamed of the teacher ' s certificates which would ultimately be awarded them for their diligent efforts. m MlKIAM VAN Joyce Clarke Stokes Hertford, N.

This necessity, in turn, was aroused by the desire to leave behind some gift of enduring quality for the school. After racking her brain for a considerable time, their president conceived the idea of launching a Christmas Card campaign wherein the Seniors sold boxes of cards and received a certain percent of the profit. This plan. too. was successful, several dollars having been added to the previous funds as a result of this endeavor. Hi l;i ■III ' .

Class Prophecy One afternoon as I thought how close the Greensboro College girls have grown during the past four years and how hard graduation day with its parting would be, I began to wonder about the future of the class of ' 36. Undoubtedly our different paths, leading Co the numerous counties of North Carolina or into some neighboring state, would cause us to have many experiences under the guidance of Lady Fate. I sat day-dreaming for quite a while, but I could capture not an inkling of the future Suddenly I had an inspiration! I thought of Mammy Matilda, a typical southern negro fortune- teller, who had been drilled by her mother in the magic art of reading coffee grounds. If anyone could unravel the intricacies of our destinies. Mammy Matilda and her coffee cup would not fail. I then started for Mammy ' s tiny hut to beg her to tell our fortunes. Ill admit that persuading Mammy to reveal the future to me was no easy task: but after making many, many promises, I succeeded in wheedling the fortunes from the old darky. I could scarcely wait for Mammy to get the coffee cup ready. Finally Mammy heaved her plump body into a broken rocking chair that was drawn up beside the table. Then with a heavy sigh she leaned over, peered into the cup, and began to mutter Remember the cleverest member of our class? Yes. Nancy Gregson. Mammy stated that Nancy would continue to rack her brain over those cross-word puzzles, to read poetry, and to play pranks, but her name was to be changed. Her address would no longer be Siler City, North Carolina, for she would adopt South Carolina as her home state. Mammy ' s face then began to beam, for the second fortune was that of Polly Moser who would become nationally famous for her unique method of teaching small children with each lesson set to rhyme. Glancing over Mammy ' s shoulder and listening to her murmuring concerning numbers and some high institution, I discovered that Joyce Stokes and Juanita Pickard must be destined to do research work in mathematics at Columbia Universitv With the next twist of the cup Mammy was frankly puzzled, for she reported seeing one o ' dem lady doctahs with a host o ' gals around her ' This lady. 1 decided, was Mafy Onclla Relfe as physician of a certain southern college for women Another vigorous shake of the cup and Mammy was back on safe ground. She reported that Alfrieda Burnham would carry her famous South Carolina accent back to her native state where she would become a successful grammar grade teacher. Mammy began to pat her foot and hum. Finally she stopped humming long enough to let me know what the fortune was all about. 1 gathered that she had reference to the musical talent shared jointly by Bess Brcedlove. Nell Davis, and Virginia Booze. Bess was to be an assistant in the Peabody Conservatory of Music: Nell, an accompanist in a Metropolitan House; and Virginia, an organist in an European cathedral. Mammy continued to hum while she carefully shook her beloved coffee grounds. Then she told me that Charlotte Hammer and Elizabeth Faw would reach Hollywood. Charlotte would astound the movie world with her musical accomplishment. As for Lib. she would surpass even Norma Shearer as an actress. Mammy, never better pleased than when reading a matrimonial fortune, indicated by the expression on her face that this one would prove a double dip into the future. It seemed that Mary Elizabeth Robbins and I ranees Malone were to teach in elementary schools until they decided to take the M. R S degree With the next twirl of the coffee grounds, Mammy ' s countenance fell slightly, She mut- tered, Po folks, po ' folks, too many of ' em. I looked over her shoulder, but I could see nothing. However, from her disjointed remarks. I gathered that she was referring to the slum districts of a large city. A little more guessing and I bad pieced together the futures of those devoted roommates. I.il Kirk Huggins and Jean Leftwich. Chicago would come to regard these two as worthy successors of Jane Addams. Mammy paused so long that I wondered what untold things she was seeing. Just when I thought I couldn ' t bear the silence a minute longer. Mammy deigned to speak concerning Pearl Lautares. Pearl was slated to write a voluminous scientific treatise and to hold the position of biologist at Johns Hopkins University. Louise Perry ' s fortune followed so quickly that Mammy made no attempt to separate it from Pearl ' s. Perry was to become the Secretary of Dr. E. E. Ayers. Professor of Education at Greensboro College. Well, praise de Lawd. here comes some good ole chu ' eh wu ' k. rejoiced Mammy. Her coffee ground map revealed Grace Martin as young people ' s counsellor in Atlanta, Georgia. Further reading proved that Betty Nicholson would become an assistant pastor in Washington. District of Columbia. Mammy reluctantly passed on to the next reading which proved to be that of Jeanette Jessup, better known as Happy. ' ' This member of the class would be found offering a campus course in the schools of Cumberland county and checking around— still mostly Checking. Chile. I see a heap o ' prancin ' and jumpin ' about in dis fortune. exclaimed the old darky. Surely this could be only Sallic Cahill — the most athletic member of the class. Mammy ' s next words made everything quite clear. Sallie, as head of the physical education department in a New York school and as counsellor of a popular summer camp for girls, would have her hands full. I then looked up to find Mammy ' s eyes as big as saucers, and I knew the reason — great dramatic ability. Nell Moore and Cordelia Pass would have studios in their home towns, namely Columbus. Georgia, and Mocksville. North Carolina. Mary Frances HarriU ' s prophecy was no shock to me. Since she was to be a young matron of Greensboro, she would no longer Back up to take curves. Mammy hurried breathlessly on to the next item which was concerned with Annabel Vestcr as an English teacher with designing eyes upon the principal of an eastern city school. More truck that I don ' t see though. sighed Mammy. Once more I had to help the old darky unravel the tangle to find that Mary Sink would be laboratory technician at Duke University. Mammy then read the future of a well rounded Winston Salem lass who proved to be none other than Mary Lucile Pegram. Mary Lucile would have a chance to develop her talent in journalism as a member of the Charlotte Observer staff. Mammy ' s manner became more dignified as she read her magic cup for our class president. Dorothy Dees, who would fill an important position as dean of women at Chicago University. However, Mammy ' s face again became radiant as she looked at the grounds. She indicated that Julia Margaret Fletcher would take unto herself a new name which would spell electrical engineering at Cheraw, South Carolina. Mammy became almost hysterical as she reported that some one who had an abundance of knowledge was appearing. I immediately judged this to be Helen Wilson. I found that Helen was to have a two-fold teaching position — French instructor at Welcome High School and Sunday School teacher in her home church. Mammy next reported the fortune of Margaret Huffman who would hold half interest in the Barclay Chicken Farm of Rhode Island. The future of the editor-in-chief of the 1 3 6 ECHO was then given, this reading showed that Frances Maurice would attain the Vice-Presidency of the Crowell Publishing Company. Mammy next mentioned the appearance of several small children with a very capable teacher. My guess was Martha Powell with a kindergarten in Louisiana. The old darky proceeded by speaking of One o ' dem big hostesses. Of course this fortune was Nancy Rose Everhardt ' s. I learned that Nancy would continue her work as hostess in an exclusive hotel in Baltimore. Mammy ' s eyes grew round as she murmured something concerning the crossing of waters. Finally, I understood that Mary Hix was the person concerned, and that this senior would make an annual trip abroad as buyer for a certain North Wilkesboro store. By this time Mammy was growing weary. She stated that she could see only one more fortune. With a start I realized that I was the thirty-sixth member of the class. Afraid of the worst. I tipped the cup and spilled the coffee grounds on Mammy ' s gaily checked tabic cloth. — EUGENIA LANE, Prophet.

They responded so heartily rhat now school officials are wondering what to do with them. If these eager-to-be-part-of-the-College students got their desserts, their call-downs would soon mount to restrictions. However, as his would mean free board and room for these pests, which would be inflicting more punishment on the College than on the students, we are forced to let them do just as they please.

CAMPUS LIFE tip Emily Worth Queen O ' the May yl Lu, «= 7de, 1935 Let us turn back to the year 1850 and visit a southern plantation. There negro slaves, relatives, southern aristo- crats and townspeople are gathered on the lawn of the Grcenview Manor to welcome and rejoice with the master as he returns with his bride. As the scene opens three negro mam- mies are singing and preparing a throne. A pickaninny, joyous over the occasion, appears followed by other little dark- ies. They frolic about until one little pickaninny sees the approaching car- riage. He rings the old plantation bell to announce the arrival. Alter the coronation representative dances are given before the throne. The fete is over, but memories of old plantation life remain with us. The Queen and Hi r Court Virginia Reel . . .
