NINETEEN HUN 9 A ND THIRTY-NINE 4 Mildred Lucilh Horne Editor Clara Smith Burke Business Manager PUBLISHED BY THE SENIOR CLASS OF GREENSBORO COLLEGE GREENSBORO, NORTH CAROLINA There are many wonderful qualitm.whkh co bine to make the personality of Mr . R. R. Alley She ' s a small person, scarcely five tcet tall; stran of silvery white hair lie above tw i-6yes full of good humor and kindness, conirasttng with her mild rebuke as she says, Girls, letts not have so much noise in the library. Many a Whimsical nod has she given to well-meaning house- pre. i dents who. at midnight, have tried to Ber call downs for lights: her most cherisl g S ossession IS the locket presented to her by t tudents in loving remembrance of years dedi ed to their guidance and service. EDIGATED TO For your untiring and faithful services, for your skillful and elfuient luork through twenty-seven years as librarian, for the loyalty and devotion which you have constantly demonstrated in every phase of colhge life, for your courage and pro- gressive spirit, tor your intelligent interest in each of us. for your Christian attitude in everyday life, for the inspiration given us by your noble living, for your unswerving faith in us who have ' ■■1 been the heirt of the college hill, and most of all lor your loving friendship, we dedicate to you. Mrs. Alley, the 19 39 Echo o Greensboro CoZ e e. R E S E President Luther L. Gobbel Director Students become stars overnight may be the headUnes in leading American newspapers soon. for. though perhaps a starthng dis- closure, m September of last year all students and the faculty of Greensboro College were summoned On Location for the shoot- ing of a moving-picture, including a feature, a short, and a newsreel. This movie was sponsored by the 1939 ECHO. T AT I N icr L. Gobbcl liad been pre- viously awarded the monumental task of directing the picture. Casting was soon in progress and the following roles were assigned: stock players, the faculty: stars, the seniors: featured players, the juniors: cast actors, the sophomores: extras, the freshmen. Shooting began immediately — in this year- book are the stills taken from the movie. CONTENTS The first division of the ECHO gives the CAST OF CharacTHRS. which includes the faculty and four classes. The Featuri- folloics with pictures and dis- cussions of the organizations and life on the campus, .succeeded by a SHORT portraying last year ' s activities during Centennial Celebration. May Day. and Class Day. A Newsreel shows stills of superlatives and athletics, while a PREVIEW of coming attractions con- tains the features. CAST OF CHARACTERS Faculty and Classes LUTHER L. GOBBEL A.B.. A.M.. Ph.D. President of Greensboro College :i2] ANNE GARRARD A.B.. A.M. Dean of Students :i3i SCHOOL OF MUSIC Mark Hoffman. Director of Music and Professor of Piano, posecl with Miss Mildred Town, Professor of Piano. Organ, and Theoretical Music, and her associate. Miss Blanche Burrus. It is remarkable that during the time the pic- ture was being taken not once did Mr. Hoffman mention Elaine or little Mark 111. and is entirely natural that Miss Burrus and Miss Town should be seen together here, for they arc the best of friends and seem to enjoy each other ' s company while sharing their mutual inter- est, music.

Instructor in Speech and Dramatic Art: Mrs. Mary Braeme Sea- sholtz. Associate Professor of Art: Miss Grace HinchlifT, Instructor in Home Eco- nomics: and Miss Bernice White, Pro- fessor of Home Economics posed in one group. The wind was blowing and there were lots of shadows which partially hid their faces but the students think of Miss Henninger and Miss Willard as belong- ing in Odell. Miss Hinchliff and Miss White in the basement of Hudson, and Mrs. Seasholtz on third floor Main, so why bother with shadows when the imagination is at hand: ' Above are Mrs. Seasholtz and Mickey Ader working in the spacious art labora- tory on third floor Main. 15; DEPARTMENTS OF SCIENCE AND MATHEMATICS One of the first questions a beginner in chemistry or physics must answer is: Do I know enough math to pass this course. ' Science and mathematics being related to cacli other in such a fashion. the professors in these two departments were shot I photographically, of course) together. Dr. Colcen Fowler, Assistant Professor of Biology, and Miss Annie Pegram. Professor of Mathematics, reluc- tantly stopped in the middle of their fav- orite meal of cinnamon buns and cheese- balls to join Miss Grace Hinchliff, Instruc tor in Biology, and Dr. Paul Ginnings, Head of Science and Professor of Chemis- try and Physics. Above is a piclure of Dr. Ginning-, and a tricky you-ask-him- what — ii would probably take him a minule to tell its full name! :i6i DEPARTMENT OF RELIGION Dr. Samuel B. Turrcntine. President Emeritus and Professor of Bible, stopped on his way to chapel for a few minutes ' conversation with Dr. Raymond Smith, Professor of Religious Education. Benign and respected by every girl on the campus. Dr. Turrentine always completed Thurs day ' s religious services by pronouncing the benediction. It is regrettable that Dr. Smith, in Barrymore fashion, showed only his profile, because all the girls love that kind and yet mischievous smile of his. DEPARTMENTS OF EDUCATION, HISTORY AND ECONOMICS Dr. Elizabeth Young. Professor of Edu- cation, apparently tried to interest Elliott O. Watson, Professor of History and Eco- nomics, in an article of the Education Magazine, but Mr. Watson ' s thoughts, after chapel, probably ran more toward food than toward education. Mr. Watson it was, one memorable test day, who looked around at his class and said Seems to me you ' re getting more hysterical than historical! Dr. Young is historical too. always delving into the past in some sort of research work — either that or re-search ing through piles of papers for some prac- tice-teacher ' s lesson plans. Lcfl to right: Yousc. W.i 171 DEPARTMENTS OF ROMANCE LANG UAGES AND GERMAN DEPARTMENT OE ENGLISH AND THE LIBRARIANS A frequent assignment in English classes is: Go to the library and look up so-and-so : for that reason, it should not be hard to understand why the English Department posed with the librarians. Dr. J. Roddey Miller. Professor of English; Miss Grace HinchlifT. Instructor in English: Miss Mary Ginn. Associate Professor of English: and the newest member of the faculty. Dr. Enid Smith. In- structor in English and Edu- cation, are seen here with Miss Annette Shinn. Librarian, and Miss Elizabeth Woodcock. Assistant Librarian. Dr. Robert T. Dunstan. Head of Latin and Romance Languages and Professor of Romance Languages, should have felt per- fectly at case posing just outside his own class-room with Dr. Madeline Stinson. Assistant Professor of Romance Languages, and Dr. Conrad Lahscr. Professor of German. Whenever Dr. Stinson ' s men- tioned, the Neic Yorker, a toasted cheese sandwich, and coffee are automatically thought of: when a student talks to Dr. Lahser she notes the kindly twinkling eyes and no doubt would love to hear him say The silken, sad. uncertain rustling of each purple curtain Say Dr. Dunstan. and puns, jokes, and other examples of typical Gallic humor pop into mind. 18] SUPERVISORS OF PHYSICAL EDUCATION, DIET, STUDENT HOSPITAL, AND BUILDINGS It looks as though Miss Sarah Rickman. Dietitian: Miss Pearl Turner. Supervisor of the Student Hospital: and Miss Mar- garet Scarborough. Supervisor of Build ings. might be getting ready to go for a ride. From her clothes, anyone could probably guess that Miss Agnes Jeter. Pro- fessor of Physical Education, had already been riding — at the Sedgefield Stables. The door to the right is that of the new Aurelia Bowman Gray Student Hospital, which buildmg was dedicated on Found dcrs ' and Benefactors ' Day. March 1 1 . :i9] ADMINISTRATION The school ' s business affairs just wouldn ' t run smoothly it it weren ' t for the painstaking care and long hours of work spent in its interest by the adminis- tration. Reverend W. M. Curtis took care of the financial worries of the college; Miss Anne Garrard served as Dean of Students and cooperated with others in helping things run smoothly: Miss Lctha Brock. Registrar. Lcfl to rujhl ■ Cr« sent out bulletins, mailed circulars, and aided the building up of the college ' s en- rollment to the best of her ability. Miss Mary Brock. Alumnae Secretary and Secre- tary to the President, interested those already graduated in working to the best advantage for their Alma Mater and. gen- erally, aided Dr. Gobbel. president of this institution. Miss Estellc DeHay was Secretary to the Business Manager: Mr. l.owry H. Allison served as Centennial Secretary: C ' ary Atkins was manager of the book- store: and Miss Thcodocia Blackmon served as accountant in the treasurer ' s ofTicc. Left to rt.ilit: DtlUv.

[35] SENIOR CLASS HISTORY Laughing girls, crying girls, big girls, little girls — all types of young womanhood — and all wkb one common characteristic: we were all freshmen at Greensboro College, and one of us was just as green as the next. This picture could have been snapped on the Greensboro Col- lege campus on September 10. 1935. as sixty-two new girls came to college for the first time. We made decisions as to what courses we should enroll in and began to make friends that very first day. For the first two weeks all nostalgic yearnings were drowned by the Irvings and Emersons who rushed us pell-mell from tea- dance to hay-ride to formal meeting, all with intent of helping us decide which of the two Societies we should join. On Decision Day for the first time we saw the rotunda decorated in the Irving and Emerson colors, with gay paper caps, toy drums and horns to match. Spirits ran high as old girls sang the society songs. All of this led up to the biggest event of the day. when wc scurried to the dining hall to sit at our favorite table and gulp our food — still unable to decide which Society we were to join. Then it was all over, and we were rushing up the steps lined with loyal Irvings and Emersons. Of the new members. Edna Grcgson I now Mrs. Joe Taylor, of Greensboro) was chosen Irving Bride and Polly Brewster was named Emerson Queen. After Decision Day. we all settled down to some good hard work, pouring over chemistry. English, and all the courses fresh- men usually have to cope with. One morning in October after a scant night ' s sleep, we awoke to find ourselves at the mercy of the pitiless sophomores, who assembled us on the front campus for inspection to see if our hair was combed straight out and brushed around our faces: if our hats were low enough on our foreheads: if we had on no fingernail polish and no make-up: if we had on tennis shoes with long hose: if we had on dresses with no belts: and. last but not least, if we had exactly thirty- nine freckles painted across our very shiny noses. We carried all our books to class in pillow cases, swept in front of every sopho- more, and made up beds and held doors open all day long. At seven o ' clock that night a very scared and bedraggled group of freshmen assembled in the gymnasium for Rat Court. at which our very athletic Jacquelyn Hauscr. as a result of contempt of court, was asked to push a lifesaver across the gym floor with her nose. The next thing we knew it was Thanksgiving. We freshmen grabbed our week-end bags (which had been packed for three weeks) . donned our new college dignity, and hurried home to show everyone how much we really had learned. Four days later we were back, homesick but looking forward to Christmas. We soon found other things to take up our time, however, as we decided we had been entirely too tame and some- thing should be done about it. Louisa Millard and Rubylcigh Davis (now at W. C. U. N. C, 1 immediately organized the hornpipe brigade, which caused so much commotion that Mr. Watson threatened to call out the Police Department. Monday nights found the laundry bags all piled in front of Dr. Youngs door, and water fights were a most common pastime. Then there was the night that no one could walk down the hall on third floor Main because each mattress from every bed on that floor had been placed in the hall for sleeping purposes. And so time passed swiftly until it was the night before Christmas holidays. We decked ourselves out in our finest frocks, touched shell-pink cars with perfume, added a last layer of lipstick, and swished downstairs, where dates, dresses, and going home were all forgotten in the unwrapping of gifts and singing of Christmas carols at the festive formal dinner. The huge turkeys were borne in on large platters and devoured with gusto by three hundred hungry girls. At nine o ' clock that night we freshmen saw our first White Christmas service, unforgettably impressive and beautiful. Two weeks later found us all back from a grand holiday and faced with that dreaded monster, examinations We discovered that sleep could be done without, and that if we took all the clothes out of the closets, our reading lamps and desks would fit in very nicely for late studying purposes. At the first of the year wc had chosen for our class oflicers Mary Ruth Bruton as president: Mary Ruth Dcl.ozicr. (now residing in Candler. N. C.) as vice-president: Kitty Clinc 3S secretary, and Nora Foy (now Mrs. Tommy Woodall of Winston-Salem) as treasurer. These ofTicers did their best to keep us in the swing of things and out of trouble — they boasted in us a grand class spirit and sent us out for athletics, where wc were promptly defeated. A ' bout this time we began to arrange for Freshman-Sopho- more which was to be in the form of a banquet at the King Cotton Hotel, and soon after that we elected as our May Day attendants Polly Brewster and Helen Davis. For our next year ' s class officers, we selected Clara Meade Smith (now Mrs, Edmund Burke, of Greensboro) as president: Mary Frances Moore as vice-president. Alice Bundy (now resid- ing in Elizabeth City) as secretary; and Kathryn Goode as treasurer. After May Day we realized that our freshman year was almost over, that we were not nearly so green as we had been, and that next year W ' e would be mighty sophomores. Wc said goodbye to our classmates, our friends, and tornado-stricken Greensboro, and went home for the summer months. At the beginning of our sophomore year we were quick to realize that we had acquired some prestige, and that instead of being rushed, we could rush new girls ourselves. We enjoyed this thoroughly, and at the end of two weeks we were again at Decision Day. this time hoping that the girls we had learned to love in that short time would come to our society. We enjoyed Athletic Association picnics, hikes, and other extra-curricular activities: on October 19. we turned the tables on the freshmen, and this time we were masters of Freshman- Sophomore Day. which was made more vivid by the fact that we had our new class sweaters, white with red letters, to wear that day. Time passed swiftly then. There were the Thanksgiving Holidays, and then King Edward abdicated (you should have seen us wiping the tears from our eyes and listening avidly to the King ' s English ). Next came Christmas vacation, and studies again. On the night of April 1 3 at ten o ' clock we were called to a Student s Meeting where we learned that dancing with young men was to be permitted at the three major social func- tions of the year, and that we. as sophomores, were to be the first to take advantage of it at our Freshman-Sophomore. Our May Day attendants that year were Polly Brewster and Alice Bundy: and our next year ' s class oflicers were: Kathryn Goode. president: Elizabeth Fulp. vice-president: Virginia Smith, secretary: and Nancy McGowan. treasurer. Then before we knew it our sophomore year was ending, and wc were about to say goodbye to our big sisters for good To show our appreciation of them, wc arose one morning at four o dock and sallied forth to pick daisies for the senior daisy chain In showing our devotion we made the chain so large that it broke in places, and all the sophomores had sore _shoulders from carrying it. During the ensuing summer, we acquired a family: that is. instead of being little sisters we were now big sisters. Our former ranks were so greatly reduced that some of us had three little sisters ' each, but we found it great fun to show them around and give them motherly advice, Wc began then to hear the word Centennial, borne on the lips of our president, faculty and students, and echoed in the many lovely gifts donated by friends of the college. We chose for our Centennial Project the life of the mother of William Sid- ney Porter, better known as O. Henry, Wc also presented in chapel A Slice of Old G, F C, , a skit depicting life in this college many years ago. To raise funds for our various class activities we took charge of the Junior Anchor Inn. where sandwiches and drinks were sold twice weekly by various members of the class. Late, in the spring, for further remuneration the juniors sponsored a Fashion Show of old and new women s fashions. In March. 1 )3 8. we entertained the Seniors at the annual Junior-Senior Prom, as a parting tribute to them. A few weeks later we were faced with the problem of electing class officers for our senior year, and wc chose Virginia Patrick, who has led us successfully through the year, as president: Clara Moss as vice- president: Martha Way as secretary: and Gladys Treakle as treas- urer. For May Day attendants, wc selected Polly Brewster and Evelyn Troxler. and for Maid of Honor. Hazel Snipes (now Mrs, Bowlin Walkeley), In September of 1938 we returned to G, C, as dignified sen- iors who were expected to lead in school activities. Mary Ruth Bruton had been elected President of the Students Association: Sara King. President of the Y. W. C. A,: Kathryn Goode. Presi- dent of the Athletic Association: Elizabeth Mendenhall. President of the Emerson Society: and Margaret Rives. President of the Irving Society. Early in the school year the seniors look first prize for a skit at the beginning of the soccer season, and later played off the finals in the Soccer Tournament, only to be beaten by the juniors Next came our Cap and Gown Service, held on February 14 in Odcll Auditorium, when we were capped and gowned by our little sisters. and for the first time assumed our full senior dignity. For our May Court. Polly Brewster was chosen May Queen and Bettv Trotter and Evelyn Troxler served as her senior attendants. And now we. the seniors of 1039, are about to receive our degrees — the first graduating class in Greensboro College s second century. CAROLYN BURNETT. Historian.

As you sink back into soft plush backs, remove your coat, and vio- lently ask your companion why the woman in front of you doesn ' t remove that inverted bird ' s nest, there flashes on the screen before you words giving credit where credit is due — words telling the identities of producer, director, etc. Per- haps, as you sit there in the darkness, you innoce ntly turn a baby-blue-eyed stare on your companion and say Johnny, what does a producer do? Whereupon several indignant Ssh ' s will be hissed your way. and you are silent, but still curious. Well, the Greensboro College movie, sponsored by the 19 39 EcHO. has its own roster of names and the duties of each. Here they are: Director: President Luther L. Gobbcl. His was a task of skill, endurance, and diplomacy. The director is a chief official who consolidates isolated forces into a unified whole. ProduchR: Lucile Home. Hers was the duty of beginning on time, of com- pleting on time, of selecting all material, and of releasing the finished product. Business Director: Clara Smith Burke. Her duty comprised organizing her department so as to assure publicity and advertising results. She was aided by assistant managers. Cutter or Film Editor : Dr. J. Roddcy Miller. All superfluous and objectionable materials were deleted and all script-writing supervised by our adviser. Assistant Producer: Virginia Patrick. This responsible position entailed arranging schedules, shipping pictures, and, in general seconding the producer. Certain Uniis were headed by special producers, associate producers, and supervisors: the editorial staff of the EcHO. Cameramen: Messrs. H. A. Flynt and W. H. Flynt. Artists ' eyes for com- bination and composition were their prerequisites: under their supervision came the assembling ( montage ), retouching, developing, and printing of pictures. Technical Advlsl:rs: Messrs. C. Gordon Brightman. of Jahn and Oilier Engraving Company, and William J. Crichton. of Observer Printing House. They rendered invaluable assistance to the producer. Make-Up Department: Greensboro College student body. Also on Location: the culinary department: school-teachers for stars, feat- ured actors, etc: medical staff to give first aid to the faint and weary. Be it said that the only way we could have made this picture was through the cooperation and assistance of the Greensboro College faculty, administra- tion, and students. All characters and events in this photoplay are not fictitious and all references to persons living or to any actual events are intended, nut coincidental.

The sudden interest shown in all phases of Student Government, the coopera- tion between faculty, students, and council, and the convincing improved attitude of the whole student body have served to stimulate the work of the Student Council. Throughout this year many extra privileges have been given to the students, the more comprehensive ones dealing with riding and chapel cuts. The Collegian has sponsored a Student Government Drive. and in fact, it has been a year in which the whole college has grown to realize the high ideals that a good framework of student government should have. The Student Council gave the student body its sincerest loyalty and coopera- tion. With an understanding of all student problems, it dealt with individual cases in ways which showed lenience or firmness as the case demanded. Under the leadership of Mary Ruth Bruton as president: Nancy McGowan, vice-president: Henrietta Hines, second vice-president: Elizabeth Gabriel, record- ing secretary: Rowena Davis, corresponding secretary: Mary Susan Robertson, treasurer: and Mary Hauser. town girls ' representative, the Student Council ended a most successful year on March 4. 1939. Retiring officers received an ovation as they filed out of Odell after the traditional ringing of the bell. The house-presidents for this year included Mabel Seymour. Anne ' Worth. Helen Davis. LaVon Osborne. Helen Robbins. Martha Everett Robinson. Mary Farrar. Ruth Arden Durham, and Helen McDaniel. •571 THE HONOR SOCIETY Not every junior or senior on the campus who attains the required average of ninety is asked to join the Honor Society, for a prospective member is con- sidered on two subjects: grades and attitude. A girl may be totally indifferent to life around her. may have questionable habits, or may be dishonorable in situations she considers trivial. If so. she will not be invited to join, no matter how high her average is. The Honor Society member has faith in her fellow students and college and therefore is loyal to them, she is an idealist in that she ever strives to better conditions whether it be in the dormitory or on the campus, and she will endeavor after graduation to maintain the high scholastic reputation of the college and her society. New members arc always pledged to use their proven intelligences to the best advantage and to be honorable in all scholastic undertakings. Officers of the Honor Society were: president. Lucile Home: vice-president. Doris Coltrane: secretary. Dorothy Jones. The Honor Society includes these honorary members: Dr. L. L. Gobbel. Rev. W. M. Curtis. Dr. R. T. Dunstan, Miss Annie M. Pegram. and Dr. Madeline Stinson: and these alumnae members: Misses Mary Brock, Blanche Burrus. Margaret Scarborough, and Annette Shinn: and these students: Jo.sephine Andoe. Gary Atkins. Beulah Bradley. Eloise Carter. Doris Coltrane. Mary Lee Flowers. Rebecca Fulghum. Jane Hess, Lucile Home, Dorothy Jones, Lucille Martin, Dorothy Plonk, Ellen Singleton, and Evelyn Troxler. [58] JUNIOR HONOR SOCIETY Having an Honor Society on our campus was fine, said the freshmen and sophomores, but after all. it was one which included only juniors and seniors. a fact which finally proved to be the determining factor in a movement to start a similar organization for the two lower classes. A Junior Honor Society, which has as its standard for membership an average of ninety and an estimable attitude, was the result: and the first year ' s officers were chosen to be Kathryn Thompson, president; Anne Exum, vice-president: and Weleska Pegram, secretary - treasurer. Years from now, the first members privileged and intellectually talented enough to be asked to join will consider this invitation a great honor, for it is always somewhat of a thrill to hear oneself spoken of as a charter member, These fortunate girls were: Mary Noble Angel. Anne Exum. Sarah Fore. Trilby Hewitt, Gwcn Holler, Celeste Home. Margaret Wrenn Koontz. Dorothy Moore. Majelle Morris. Anna Leo Nelson. Weleska Pegram. Mary Raysor. Louise Robbins. Kathryn Thompson, and Anne Worth. Lrfl l„ ruilil: Kaysok. Mo kis. .Moore, Worth, Koontz. Fore, Horne.

Ruth Slocumb [ ' resident ' ice- President Secretary Treasurer Managers Y Store :6oi YOUNG WOMEN ' S CHRISTIAN ASSOCIATION A thoughtful, interested and vital group has been meeting every Thursday night of the past year to plan the activities of a most important organization on our campus. This sincere and purposeful group of girls, the Y cabinet, included the officers and committee chairmen of the Young Women ' s Christian Association. All during the year the Y ' s services were evident. This year the aims centered around the religious and personal needs of individuals on the campus rather than on other questions. Feeling out in advance the needs of every student for such services by a mimeographed ques- tionnaire, the Y has sponsored programs concerning student problems and affairs. Through vespers and other programs of a religious nature it has attained its goal in reaching practically every student. The Y has cooperated with other groups on the campus in student affairs. This year, during Religious Emphasis Week. Rev. Robert Bradshaw. of Durham, led many interesting and beneficial services. The cabinet enjoyed a joint retreat with the Student Council at Sunny Acres in February. Many of its members attended conferences at Blue Ridge and Ju naluska. Cabinet members of the 1958-39 Y. W. C. A. included: Mary Elizabeth Myers and Amy Holland, religious education; Whitmel Gurley. music: Margaret Rives, social service: Josephine Andoe, world fellowship: Janet Thomas, social: Barbara Allen Moss, publicity: and Lucile Home, publications. Faculty advisers this year were Dr. L. L. Gobbcl. Miss Anne Garrard. Dr. Raymond Smith, and Dr. Madeline Stinson. ■611 EMERSON LITERARY SOCIETY Good ole Emersons — such a swell soc.ety ! It must be. to stimubtc half the student body of th.s college to such activity as was exhibited during Rush Week at the beginning of the school semester. Imagine G C lazy-bones getting up at 5: ' iO to decorate the rotunda for Decision Day with gold and green balloons, anchors, chairs, pilots ' wheels, and life-savers Victory came by the small majority of 5 after the Cone Lake picnic and several grand formal meetings. Sportsmanship, eagerness, and loyalty — all three are seen in anything the green and gold ' Emersons do. Because the Emerson Literary Society is an important organization on the campus, people who belong to it love and honor all for which it stands.

Purple and gold caps were plentiful, and many freshmen enjoyed little appleing after entering Irvalina. the glori- fied moving-picture palace built in the early hours of the dawn on the rotunda by enterprising members. Previously, the Irvings had taken the freshmen on a theatre party in preparation for carrying out their theme of Decision Day. Instead of being the G. O. P.. the Irvings belong to a G. O.

Circulation was managed by Carolyn Smith and Annie Eaurie Howell: Mary Susan Robertson and Emma Muse Burns were photo- graphic editors. Martha Way Business Manager The Collegian has invented many new and interesting features this year. Mary Fran Moore ' s Quidnunc and Shirley Bailey ' s Straws in the Wind are two interest- ing columns which give the real low-down on all of our private lives. The Under Discussion column gives stu- dents and faculty a chance to say what they really think about vital student problems. The Student Government Drive. sponsored by the staff of the Collegian, was one of the most-talked-about events of the year. Endeavoring to stimulate student interest in all phases of Student Government, the staff published editorials, student opinion, quotations, pictures and personalities dealing with the subject under discussion. The business manager, Martha Way. and her assistants have worn out a lot of shoe leather getting the ads for the financial side of the Collegian, and. by the way, have really gotten results from their pavement-pounding! THE COLLEGIAN Miss Mary L. Ginn Faculty Adviser [69] HANDBOOK Graduation was over: tlic campus was bare of all students except the hard-working editor of the Handbook. Catherine Sherrill. and her even more zealous business manager, Janet Thomas. For them work had just begun. Securing advertisements was not merely a matter of smiling and signing on the dotted line, as Janet soon found out, Do you have a per- mit to raise money by getting ads. ' No? See Mr. Robert Trosper. president of the Mer- chants Association. Through sunshine and rain for three days Janet, accompanied by her assistant, Anna Catherine Love, walked the streets of Greensboro, smiling a thank-you when Meyers gave them an ad. smiling just as cheerfully when some other firm refused to con- tribute to the financing of the Greensboro Col- lege book of law, ignorance of which is no excuse (according to the council). No less busy Catherine, using the hunt and peck system, wrote notes to presidents of this club, that organization, and even to faculty members, reminding them that a list of their officers and rules must be given to her by June third or else there would be no Handbook. Fully confident that all would be well since the business arrangements had been discussed with publisher R. R. Mitchell. Janet and Cath- erine left the college in June for a well-earned rest. Their confidence short-lived, both girls were laced with innumerable questions by cor- respondence, and in Greensboro. Durham. Dunn, and Statesville, mailmen plodded their weary ways with letters to and from publisher, sponsor, business manager, and editor. Finally, in the third week of August, the new gray and green Handbook was ours. The editor and business manager could at last enjoy a vacation. Catherine Sherrill. right Editor Janet Thomas, left Business Manager ' 70] INTERNATIONAL RELATIONS CLUB The I. R. C. has this year carried out a program dedicated to a deeper understanding of our neighbors near and far. Semi-monthly meetings have been held for the discussion of national and international problems. The club has conducted chapel programs and vespers services. Seven delegates from our club attended the Southeastern Conference for International Relations Club held at the College of William and Mary during the Easter holidays. April 6-9. The most important piece of work done by the I. R. C. this year has been the organization and carrying out of a project for the aid of student refugees from other countries. We have established a permanent Student Scholarship Fund and will bring to the campus next fall our first refugee students. Varied activities were employed to raise this fund. There were such things as a Spring Fashion Show, rummage sales, silver teas, contributions contests. In early March fifteen new members were voted into the club: Cary Atkins. Shirley Bailey. Emma M. Burns. Carrie B. Dees. Erlene Greene. Trilby Hewitt. Mary L. Latham. Thelma Loftin. Dorothy Moore. La Von Osborne. Mary S. Robertson. Mable Seymour. Cameron Taylor. Kathryn Thompson, and Sallie Y. Wilson. Officers were: Ida June Randolph, president: Josephine Andoe. vice- president: Margaret Anderson, secretary-treasurer. Old members included: Margaret Anderson. Josephine Andoe. Clara Smith Burke. Jewel Clifton. Ruth Davidson. Helen Davis. Lucile Home. Sara King. Louise Miller. Majelle Morris, Ida June Randolph. Mary Reece. Janet Thomas and Martha Way. . ■ ( lo R.,il,l: An •rHu.MAs. Miller. Horne, Ra , Keece. Davis. Morris, Cl Way. Ki.-iu, Da 71] GLEE CLUB Walter Vassar Director Ellen Singleton Business Manager The Glee Club certainly has earned the right to be called the football team of Greensboro College, for it most assuredly puts in many wearisome hours of practice on vocalizing and striving for beautiful tone quality. It is constantly in the field, having sung for chapel nearly every Thursday of this year, and has made several out- of-town trips, including a week ' s tour taken in March. Members this year were: Mary Noble Angel. Mary Virginia Arnold. Cary Atkins. Ruth Bunts. Emma Muse Burns. Glenn Crowder. Helen Donavant. Marguerite Etta Evans. Eleanor Fitzgerald. Margaret Foard. Sarah Fore. Jane Giersch. Marguerite Godwin. Whitmcl Gurley, Myrtle Heath. Jane Hess. Henrietta Hines. Gwen Holler. Celeste Home, Annie Laurie Howell. Fay Linberg. Thelma Loftin. Kathryn Marley, Lucille Martin, Betsy Morris, Margaret Morrison. Frances Palmer. Rosemary Reed. Louise Robbins. Virginia Smith. Kathryn Snyder. Hilda Somers. Jean Stamper. Grace Clare Taylor, and Norma Terry. •72] Catering to the theory that men prefer blondes and brunettes, if they be college girls. Pop Vassar chose three golden and three raven-haired lasses for the coveted places in the sextet. They were Virginia Schrock. Hilda Somers. Helen Donavant. Gwcn Holler. Sara Smith, and Sarah Fore. These Six Little Maids ' from G. C. sang their way into the hearts of more listeners than they ' ll ever suspect. The swingtime version of Mother Goose, namely, Nursery Rhyme Blues, reportedly laid ' em low from Maine to Florida, or at least as far in both directions as the Glee Club traveled. The Greensboro Kiwanis Club, before whom the group made its first important appearance in the early spring, was an easy victory, as was Chapel Hill later on. The latter occasion, we heard, culminated in sextet giggles accompanied by varying basses, baritones and tenor laughs, all resulting from innuendos concerning one Jack of Nursery-Rhyme fame, when there was a very real Jack belonging to a blonde Greensboro member of the sextet in the audience. On the Glee Club tour, in March, the sextet appeared in Chapel Hill. Bethel. Hertford. Elizabeth City, and Sunbury. The sextet mascot was Ferdinand, in memory of the Kiwanis Club debut, when Pop was a mighty picador, and the sextet rendered Ferdinand with effective tremolos, A new musical organization which has already put in appearance at several concerts is the string quartette, composed of Evelyn Troxler. first violinist: Willie Mae Cooper, second violinist; Rosemary Reed, cellist: and Myrtle Heath, violist. These girls gave a very creditable chapel program on early English melodies and add one more proud feather in the cap of Mr. Hoffman and the School of Music. SEXTET STRING QUARTETTE A [73] ORCHESTRA The concert presented February 5th by the Greensboro Col- lege Orchestra included Mozart ' s Magic Flute Overture, Ger- man ' s Three Dances to ' Henry Vlir. Saint-Saens ' Danse Macabre. and Sibelius ' Finlandia. 1 he concert, the result of several months ' efforts, was attrac- tive and well-balanced. The Mozart overture was well received, but applause was especially generous for the Henry V ' lll Dances. This latter rhythmic suite brought out the excellent qualities of orchestra and conductor, and contrasted effectively with the choral numbers presented by the Glee Club. In the concluding number, orchestra and chorus combined to present the dignified and noble Finlandia of Jan Sibelius. The union of the two groups created an unusual effect, the women ' s voices blending with the lighter tones of the orchestra. Prolonged applause followed the drawing of the curtain. Playing in the orchestra were: Otis Beeson. Jr.. Hugh Altvater, flutes: Mark Altvater, oboe: Harry Shipman. Elfried Pennekamp. Louise Clay, clarinets: Raymond Brietz. French horn: Ralph Todd. Oma Kent. Jack Klingman. trumpets: Robert Simmons, tubas: Evelyn Troxler. Greensboro. Billie Street, Mooresviile, Willie Mae Cooper, Statesville, Eleanora Kampschmidt.

MARSHALS Indispensable at plays, concerts, and recitals, the marshals were ever on duty to usher bewildered ticket-holders to the right scats. Of course, as Jay Herring once said, The numbers are on the right-hand side of the seats, turned backwards. Invariably somebody stumbles to the wrong seat and has to be told to move several times, but it ' s all in a night ' s work. Another monumental task other than that of ushering people in was keep- ing late-comers out. This, with running errands, giving out programs on chapel days, and eternally making the sacrifice of sitting on the last row. com- pletes the picture of the harassed but much appreciated group of marshals chosen from the senior class. They were: Catherine Dozier, chief marshal; Polly Brewster, Doris Coltranc, Elizabeth Fulp, Jay Herring. Sally Huddleston, Sue Lee. Clara Moss. Margaret Rives. Catherine Sherrill. Harriet Stevens, and Margaret ' Williamson. 75] RAPHAEL ART CLUB The Raphael Art Club has had the goal during this year of becoming acquainted with the works of contemporary painters through the medium of discussions and lectures by students and faculty members. For instance, at a recent meet- ing, a discussion on the life and works of Vincent Van Gogh was led. whereas on another occasion the president. Jeanette Bennett, addressed the club on the subject Modern Art and Its Place in the Schoolroom. As its theme for next year, the Raphael artists have selected current affairs in painting, architecture, a ' nd sculpture. It was not a rare sight at all during the autumn months to see brightly-clad, be-smocked girls loaded down with brushes and canvasses strolling around the campus looking for suitable subjects of inspiration; it was even more common seeing them dotting the landscape after the ground was covered with velvety green, the trees with lacy chartreuse, and the arbor with dusty rose. The Raphael Art Club officers this year were: Jeanette Bennett, president: Anna Leo Nelson, vice-president: Frances Dailey. secretary-treasurer: and Blanelie Dinsmore. publicity chairman. Members included: Jeanette Bennett, Polly Brewster. Annie Lois Cobb. Helen Craven. Frances Dailey. Ruth Davidson. Ruth Hayes. Jane Hess, Louise Hickey, Lucille Martin. Clara Moss, Elisabeth Mitchell. Barbara Allan Moss, Anna Leo Nelson. Hazel Neal. Dorothy Reeves, Rebecca Stephens, Grace Clare Taylor. Mary Lou Wimbish, and Martha Way. ■76: HOME ECONOMICS CLUB This year the theme for the program at each meeting of the Home Eco- nomics Club was personality and its development. Discussions were led on such subjects as charm, manners, grooming, and correct and appropriate conversation. The club held bi-monthly meetings, presided over by Carroll Jones. After the business and informal discussions were completed, all members enjoyed a social hour, during which they learned to utilize their leisure time through the medium of weaving, block-printing, and fancy embroidering. Officers this year were: Carroll Jones, president: Elizabeth Pulp, vice- president: Helen McDanicI. secretary: Helen Robbins, treasurer. All members of the club were enrolled as students in the Home Economics department of the college, and included: Rachel Archer. Ruth Bunts. Sarah Cox. Lois Cobb. Ruth Durham. Mary Farrar. Louise Ferguson. Helen Finney. Elizabeth Fulp. Beryl Graham, Marion Graham, Sally Huddleston. Carroll Jones. Julia 1-atham. Sue Lee, Margaret Long, Helen McDanicI, Virginia Patrick, Martha Rector. Dorothy Rhinehardt. Helen Robbins. Elsie Stallings, Florence Wariner. Frances Weston. Mary Frank Wilkerson, Annette Woodhouse, Anne Worth, and Beth Von Canon. MATH CLUB The Math Club mot once a month this year, at each meeting dealing with various phases of mathematics. Such words as sextant. pi. binomial theorem. Horner ' s method. and Pythagorean theory made many a visitor ' s head swim. A formal banquet was given in April, at which time new members were initiated under the tender ministrations of Miss Pegram and old members. Officers this year were: Clara Meade Burke, president: Evelyn Chandler, vice-president: .leanette Hackney, treas- urer: Dorothy Plonk, secretary: Jacqueline Hauser. chair- man of program committee: Thelma Morrison, reporter. Members of the Math Club included: Carey Atkins, Corrine Bennett, Mary Ruth Bruton. Clara S. Burke. Eloise Carter, Evelyn Chandler, Oleta Church, Mary Council, Eleanor Daniel, Mary Lee Flowers. Jeanette Hackney, Jacquelyn Hauser. Mary Hauser, Jane Hess, Ora Jones, Anna C. Love. Elizabeth Mitchell. Thelma Morrison. Barbara A. Moss. Hazel Neal. Dorothy Plonk, Louise Robbins. Sarah Smith, and Stella White. ■781 TOWN GIRLS ' CLUB The Town Girls ' Club this year held several social functions, including a weincr roast at the Battleground and a buffet supper. It had as members all students of Greensboro College who live in Greensboro: Josephine Andoe, Rachel Archer. Mary Virginia Arnold. Nettie Beale. Jcanctte Bennett. Jeanctte Bledsoe. Bertha Lee Chapman. Ruth Chenault. Edna Coltrane, Helen Cunning- ham. Doris Davenport, Helen Donavant, Martha Harwell, Mary Hauscr. Myrtle Heath. Dorothy Herring. Gwen Holler. Dorothy Jones.

Stamp ■791 THETA EPSILON The Theta Epsilon was one of several new organizations formed on our campus this year, its membership including those students either majoring or minoring in religious educa- tion and those considering religious work as a vocation or avocation. Its purpose was to interest its members in a study of and comparison between various religions. This new organ- ization had Dr. Raymond Smith, former Director of Religious Education at Centenary Church. Winston-Salem, as faculty advisor. At regular meetings Theta Epsilon had various speakers, usually of different religious denominations — for instance, they had two young people from the Methodist Epworth League upon one occasion, a Rabbi from the Jewish Synagogue at another, and an Episcopal minister at a later meeting. The group also attended services en masse in the Synagogue and Episcopal church. The Theta Epsilons chose as their first officers Pauline Fitts. president: Mary Lee Flowers, vice-president; Jane Hess, secre- tary: and Sara Smith, reporter. Charter members of this religious group included Carey Atkins, Eleanor Daniel, Pauline Fitts. Mary Lee Flowers, Julia Harriett, Gladys Heffncr. Dorothy Herring. Jane Hess, Amy Holland, Gwen Jones, Sara King, Lucille Martin, Ruth McCullen, Margaret McKeel, Mary Elizabeth Myers. Anna Leo Nelson. Louise Robbins. Sara Smith. Dorothy Stevens. Jessie Vestal, and Lorene Weaver. , left to riiilil: T. Mo The German Club is to bo congratulated as having been, this year, the sole group banded together on our campus which had a language as its common interest. The main social event of the club was the annual Christmas party held in the Irving Society Hall. A musical program included vocal selections by Frances Pal mer and a piano solo by Mary Noble Angel. Following this. Thelma Morrison, president of the club and a student in the Dramatic Department, read a Christmas story. Refreshments were then served, and the climax of the evening was reached when Dr. Lahser, faculty adviser of the club, was presented with his gift from the girls. This year ' s officers of the German Club were: Thelma Morrison, president: Mary Noble Angel, vice-president: and Frances Palmer, secretary and treasurer. German Club membership included: Carolyn Albright. Margaret Anderson. Mary Noble Angel. Gretchen Clapp. Glen Crowdcr. Annie Davidson. Helen Donavant, Jane Giersch. Eleanor Herring. Gwendolyn Holler. Annie Laurie Howell. Anne Bryan Jones, Eleanora Kampschmidt, Margaret Ann Leitheiser. Frances Lister. Miriam Maynard. Margaret Morri- son, Thelma Morrison. Frances Palmer. Virginia Schrock, Doris Scllars, Annette Smith, Mary Catherine Snyder, Jean Stamper, Margaret Thomason, Catherine Tucker. Sadie Wolfe, and Anne Worth. GERMAN CLUB [81] THE PLAYERS All major dramatic productions arc prefaced by the phrase The Greensboro College Players Present The Players is the honorary dramatic group. Hach year new Players are voted in. according to their merits as actors, technical workers, and the number of hours they have spent in dramatic work. The new members are initiated at the Players ' banquet, the social highlight of their season. This year these six students were asked to join: La Von Osborne. Kathryn Marley. Frances Smathers. Anne Exum. Weleska Pegram. and Mary Susan Robertson. The students who were previously members included: Kitty Cline. Jacquclyn Hauser. Mary Ruth Bruton, Mary Frances Moore. Rcna Davis, Martha Dora Harris. Becky Fulghum. Carrie Lupton. Lib Gabriel, and Erlene Greene. Miss Henningcr and Miss Willard are members also. This year an entirely new sort of recognition was originated when the Players decided to give some pre-eminence to that man and girl doing the best piece of acting during the dramatic season. Accord- ingly, their Acaderiny Award went to Rena Davis, for her por- trayal of the flighty and wholly charming Judith Bliss in Hay- fever. and to Howard Parrish for his sympathetic portrayal of the kind old Caleb Plummer in Dickens ' Cricket on the Hearth. However, it was decided that recognition of acting alone was not enough, because often a play ' s success or failure hinges on such back- stage activities as sound effects, lights, scenery, make-up. properties, and costumes. In other words, the Players pondered over who should be selected as the year ' s best all-round technician. After due delibera- tion this honor went to Elizabeth Gabriel. Thanks .should be given to those men of Greensboro who cooperated and participated in the plays presented in OdcU Audi- torium this year: Jack Berry. Howard Parrish. Jack Nowlin. Frank Hale. Norman Block. E. P. Dameron. Clay Murray. Arthur Kline- felter. David ' W ' itherspoon. and S. J. Marley. Whether playing lead- ing or supporting roles, their assistance was invaluable. [82] In the year ' 38- ' 9 the Dramatic Club met once a month. Various activities were engaged in at these meetings. Several times speakers from Greensboro were invited to participate: Mr. Farrell showed moving-pictures upon such an occasion. Also, home talent provided a source of entertainment, and many readings were given by members of the group. Recently interested in choral speaking, informal dis- cussions have been shared in by the Dramatic Club. The officers of this year ' s club were: Kitty Cline. president: Rebecca Fulghum, vice-president: Anne Exum, secretary: Jacquclyn Hauser. business manager: Frances Smathers, assistant business manager: Mary Frances Moore, publicity manager: Thelma Morri- son, assistant publicity manager: Martha Dora Harris, wardrobe mistress: and Dorothy Doub. assistant wardrobe mistress. All members of the Dramatic Club are always members of the speech classes of the dramatic department of the college, and included this term: Corinne Bennett, Jeanette Bledsoe, Virginia Bowden, Jean Bowers, Mary Ruth Bruton, Elaine Causey. Gretchcn Clapp, Virginia Lee Clarke, Grace Clayton, Kitty Clinc, Elizabeth Curry, Rena Davis, Julia Dees, Minnie Dees, Dorothy Doub, Rebecca Doub. Florence Dowdy, Pauline Eggleston, Anne Exum, Mary Newlin Fox. Sophia Frizzelle, Rebecca Fulghum, Elizabeth Gabriel, Frances Gardner. Kathryn Goode, Ruby Grant, Erlene Greene, Mary Lena Green.

Rachel Whitaker. Stella White, Julia Whitehurst, Mary Lou Wimbish, and Frances Winstead. DRAMATIC CLUB FIRST NIGHT Miss Kitty Cline. Reader ' The Cricket on the Hearth Long swishy evening dresses, dazzling rhinestones and feathers in the hair, faint fragrances of Gemey or Evening in Paris: smart tailored suits, gardenias on the lapels, perky sailors perched on upswept curls: black and white tuxedos, faint aromas of cigarette smoke, shiny black shoes: pin-stripe business suits, handkerchiefs in outer vest-pockets, dressy Homburgs: groups standing and talking, a line in front of the ticket-office, marshals smiling as they distribute programs: I ' m sorry, but you seem to be in the wrong seat. Would you mind removing your hat. Wonder whose program that is floating down from the balcony : veiled compliments on a new wrap, queries as to why on earth people don ' t stay put after being seated, craning of necks to see Mrs. So-and-So: two warning flashes from the stage, lights suddenly disappear, an expectant hush — chime-like notes from behind velvet curtains, first glimpse of the stage, the appearance of the characters: and one more audience at Greensboro College has settled back comfortably to enjoy a smooth, artistic dramatic production of the Players. [84] Hay Fever. a sparkling and sophisticated Noel Coward comedy under the direction of Miss Henningcr. started off the dramatic season with a roar of laughter from a highly appreciative audience. As Judith Bliss, former actress and wife of David Bliss. Rena Davis showed fine acting ability, and her role as Judith was voted by the Players to be the season ' s best piece of acting by a woman Player. Jack Berry, playing David, gave her admirable support: Anne Exum as Sorcl and Howard Parrish as Simon completed the very imaginative, ultra-modern Bliss family. Their week-end guests were played by Lib Gabriel as Myra Arundel; Frank Haile as Richard Greatham; Ruby Grant as Jackie Coryton: Jack Nowlin as Sandy Tyrell: Helen Porter as the maid. About a week before Christmas holidays the Players presented Gilmor Brown ' s adaptation of The Cricket on the Hearth. Dickens ' fable of the fireside. Such figures as the Story-Teller, charmingly played by Kitty Cline. John Perrybingle and his little wife Dot (Jack Berry and Willie Pegram ) . gruff Mr. Rackleton (Norman Block), humble Caleb Plummer (Howard Parrish) and his blind daughter Bertha (Becky Fulghum ) brought the true Dickens to Odell stage. Howard Parrish as Caleb received the Players ' best actor of the season award. Other members of the cast were: Mary Newlin Fox. Tilly Slowboy: La ' Von Osborne. May Fielding: Sandy Dameron. an old gentleman; Martha Dora Harris. Mrs. Fielding; Mary Lovern. The Spirit of the Cricket: Velda Mecum. Dot ' s mother; Clay Murray. Dot ' s father; and Jack Nowlin. the Porter. The play was directed by Miss Hcnninger. She Stoops to Conquer. Goldsmith ' s rollicking comedy of manners was the third production of the Players ' season. Honors went to Jack Nowlin as loutish Tony Lumpkin. Honorable mention also went to Rena Davis as Kate Hardcastle. and Jacquelyn Hauser as Mrs. Hardcastle. The remainder of the cast included; Jack Berry. Marlowe: Norman Block. Mr. Hardcastle: Samuel Marley. Sir Charles Marlowe; Arthur Klinefelter. Landlord: Muriel Ketchum. Dolly; Samuel Marley. Mat Muggins; David Witherspoon. Amini- dab; Carrie Lupton. bar-maid: and Lib Gabriel and Mary Fran Moore as Potboys. [85] DRAMA LABORATORY Speech students have had the time of their hves in scenery and costume labs. Dre ssed Hke tramps, gypsies, and girls on the beach, they slung paint on themselves and incidentally on stage flats, thanking their lucky stars that the green, red. or purple would wash ofl . In cos- tume lab they worked diligently designing and making clothes of every period. Bonnets and bustles, frills and flounces, hoops and hoods. — all were made after much work and with much patience by the students themselves. From the two labs emerged the finished sets and cos- tumes as they were seen on the stage, and on the night of the play, one was able to hear many a sigh of Oh. what a hard time I had on that bonnet or I ' ll never forget painting that door. Both the scenery and the costume labs are in the basement of Odell IVlemorial. All paints were mixed in the scenery lab. and there too all tacking. sizing, and painting of flats were done. Properties such as those used in the toy-shop scene in Cricket on the Hearth this year were executed in the scenery lab. At the left are snaps showing Kitsy Cline and Miss Willard mixing paints: Becky Stevens, Carolyn Stansel. and Kitsy Cline painting a mantel for Cricket on the Hearth ; and Jo Pepper.

LET ' S BE CANDID [88] :90] Two phases of i- ' ating at the college, neither of which we girls could have done without! Lunch-time always found good-natured cooks dipping out steaming, delicious food into bowls for impatient dining-room girls to carry to still more impatient fellow students out in the dining-room. Well do we remember our favorite meats: ham and spoon-bread, cheese-balls and cinnamon buns, chicken a la king and ice-box cake. No wonder the freshmen gained so much that they voluntarily went on banana diets! After lunch came dinner, and after dinner came studying: tired eyes started brightening as the hands of the clock neared ten: tired minds refused to function any longer. Weary bodies bestirred themselves, cramped hands snatched at nickels, and feet suprisingly nimble carried Anne ' s and Sarah ' s to the Y Store. I ' ll have a dope — Nabs, please — Any frozen candy. ' — I ' ll take a Drumstick — bits of noisy but satisfied chatter reached even first floor Hudson. Kitchen and Y Store — how could we be happy without them.

ST R« Ma MAY DAY The 19 8 May Day coronation was a reproduction of the first May Day program ever enacted at Greens- boro College. Hoops, ruffles, and bare shoulders draped with curls expressed the demure age which was depicted. Full-skirted maids in pastel veils wove in and out of flower hoops: sunbonnet children with pantalets peeping from beneath short skirts rolled hoops into the Court and then sang as they played simple games, leather they had the honor of doing the Maypole dance, beauti- ful though tinged with tragedy as one small girlie lost a pantalet! The whole festive occasion was in keep- ing with the Centennial Celebration of the founding of the College. Queen Margaret Ford sat en throned in regal splendor, surrounded by her court attendants. Her Maid of Honor was Polly Brewster: attendants from the freshman class were Eloise Rhoades and Helen Vail. those from the sophomore class were Grace Clare Taylor and Catherine West. The juniors were represented by Nancy Byrd Miles and Evelyn Troxler. the seniors by Evelyn Lyles and Starr Martin. [95] CENTENNIAL PAGEANT The history of Greensboro College Irom its founding to the present was presented twice in pjnor.i version on Odell stage May 11 and 21. I ' J ' iS- The pageant itself was written by students under direction of Miss Henninger and with the co-operation of Miss Willard. Scenes from the pageant she here give a pictorial idea of the varied costumes worn, the different properties required (including a bit built for two), and the huge cast selected to show Greensboro College, past and present. CENTENNIAL CELEBRATION Educators, bishops, alumnae, and friends attended Centen- nial Exercises by the thousands throughout the ten-day celebra- tion. Distinguished guests included Governor Clyde R. Hoey. President Marion Edwards Park of Bryn Mawr College. Bishop Clare Purcell. Bishop Paul B. Kern, Bishop W. W. Pcele. Mrs. Daniel C. Roper, Mrs. Charles Dana Gibson, Dr. W. P. Few, and Mrs, Sophia Richardson Patrick, Greensboro College ' s oldest living graduate. At ninety-three years of age Mrs. Patrick is surprisingly active: she writes poetry, short stories, and feature stories for newspapers; she traveled over a thousand miles to participate in the Centennial Celebration. She is a native of Bladen County. North Carolina, but has lived in Texas since 1862, the year after her graduation. May 20 the Civic clubs of Greensboro were dinner hosts to the guests, at which occasion Dr. Few made the address of the evening. A reception at President Gobbel ' s home followed the dinner. The next day. Saturday, Governor Clyde R. Hoey delivered his greetings. President Park of Bryn Mawr addressed a capacity audience, a portrait of Nancy Witcher Keen Langhorne was Mrs. Sophia Richardson Patrick Oldest Iwing Greensboro College alumn unveiled, a luncheon for distinguished guests was served at Sedgeficld Inn, and that afternoon the Centennial Pageant was repeated for the largest audience ever assembled in Odell Auditorium. On Sunday morning Bishop Pur- cell delivered the Baccalaureate Ser- mon, and that afternoon the Glee Club and Meistersingers sang The Holy City. Monday morning found seniors anxiously waiting for diplomas and other classes poised for instant flight after Commencement. However, all students heard Dean Lynn Harold Hough, of Drew Theological Sem- inary, speak about the golden keys of personal relationship. and were profoundly grateful for having re- mained for the exercises. At the left are some of the groups featured during the Centennial Cele- bration. They were: the first gradu- ating class. Catherine Sherrill. Anne Jones, Ruth Hiatt, Miriam Vail, and Mary Lou Wimbish; the charming girl with hoop skirt, Evelyn Lyles: the Homespun Girls, Margaret Anderson, Carrie Boyd Decs, Lucile Home, Mary Lena Green, Carroll Jones, Elizabeth Mitchell, Virginia Patrick, Elizabeth Fulp, and Anne Worth: the May Day attendants posed in Godey fashion, Eloise Rhoades, Grace Clare Taylor, Helenc Vail, Starr Martin, and Evelyn Lyles. CLASS DAY Traditional Class Day exercises began with a breakfast at the Jefferson Roof Restaurant, at which the class history, the prophecy, and the last will and testament were read. The presentation of gifts followed. In the afternoon the seniors and their little sisters met at the fountain, the sophomores carrying the symbolic daisy-chain with which they later formed the numerals 1838 and 1939. also the letters G, F. C. and G. C. The two classes sang farewell songs and the seniors removed their caps and gowns as a symbol of their approaching departure.

ATHLETIC ASSOCIATION I he Association began the year by giving a ■■yct-togctl,e, ' p.uiv .ind a picnic at Guilford County Country Clubhouse in honor of the new students since then it has been engaging in various other activities, social and athletic It was responsible for seeing that the soccer, tennis, and basketball tourna- ments were run off smoothly: ii later decided which girls who had participated in these intramural games should make the varsity teams. During the various hospitality week-ends, the Athletic Association gave parties for the guests visit- ing our campus. Another of its contributions to campus life was two bicycles to be rented at a dime an hour. The A,ssociation also very successfully directed an intra-mural swimming meet in March. Serving as officers this year were Kathryn Goode. president: Frances Dailey vice-president: Jewel Chfton. secretary: Frances Smathers. treasurer: Henrietta Hines. cheer leader: Jacquelyn Hau,ser. Miriam Gibbs. and Eleanor Fitzgerald class representatives. The Athletic Association chose Jacquc as Miss G. C. because of her undeniable, best all-round ability and interest in athletics. She was the driving force behind the senior soccer team and has managed basketball and soccer teams for several successive years. The G. Club, whose membership consists of those girls who have aggre- gated 750 points, this year included Kathryn Goode. Frances Weston, and Jacque Hauser. Kathryn Goode I ' residenl Jacquelyn Hauser Miss G. C. Goode. Weston. Hauser G. Club SWIMMING Our section Highlights in the Field of Sports begins, very appropriately enough, with the swimming activities carried on by G, C. students in the Y. M. pool. Several afternoons a week any person leaning over the banisters of Main could see girls set out gaily, after lunch, bound for the Y with bathing suits over their arms or wadded inside caps of all colors and stages of preserva- tion. Once there, after the roll-call, a splashing, gushing, gasping, wheezing, pleasing time was had by all. But — what a peculiar looking group always emerged from the Y building after that hour of .self -navigation! Straight wet hair or curly, frizzy locks flapped merrily in the breeze as unconcerned girls faced the stares of motorists with impish shakings of those same annoying tresses. The swimming season was climaxed in April wiih an intramural meet, at which time the freshmen showed the world I including the sophomores I exactly what they ' d been practicing those several afternoons a week. Surface dive, scissor-kick. and side-stroke were patented by each mermaid, and toward the end of the year were used toward the winning of a coveted Life Saver badge. f RIDING Hosscs and more bosses was the theme song of the riding classes which went twice a week, armed for the fray, to battle with Knees in! or How ' s your posting ' Great sympathy was needed and received as several begin- ners seemed to bke the ground better than the saddle, but no one failed to improve, and soon grand rides were being taken. Each of the girls had her favorite horse, all seniors, strangely, liking June! Prince. Duke, and Dynamite were other favorites, the latter being rather hard to handle. These cowgirls had what it took, and were soon enjoying life on a higher plane rather than having to contact terra firma unexpectedly so often! TENNIS September passed; October came, and bits of animated chatter heard m various rooms all hinged on the question Why don ' t we have a tennis tourna- ment. ' We ' re playing tennis in gym — why. so-and-so can certainly slam balls! One day a slip was tacked on the bulletin board, and tennis enthusiasts signed up. Soon class tournaments were under way. though there were rainy days, too-busy days, neglected days which just passed by before anyone suspected it. Soon leaves were off the trees, but one day LaVon Osborne, junior champ, triumphed over Eleanor Brock, senior champ: shortly after, the fresh- man winner-out. Mickey Ader. played Helen Richmond, sophomore ace. and won over her. Finals were played off, from which contest Mickey emerged the victor, to be hailed as Greensboro College tennis champion. Modest Mickey doesn ' t look like a champ, because she ' s about medium height, but boy! if you were to watch her, you ' d see grand backhand shots, forehand smashes, surprising snappy recoveries of balls barely put over the net, and excellent form. Kneeling: Hark VARSITY SOCCER The Varsity Soccer team — what a team! Just look at them! The Athletic Association had a definite reason for choosing each of these girls; Grace Clare Taylor because of splendid interference when the opposing team invaded her team ' s territory: Bunny Leitheiser because of sheer vivacity and stick-to-it-iveness : Frances Smathers for her graceful but fast lope: Nancy Wall for her red hair and ncver-say-die spirit: Eleanor Fitzgerald because of successful tackling. The girls pictured on the front row also proved that they could take it. Jane Harkness managed the junior team and at the same time played outer excel- lently: Miriam Gibbs did the smoothest dribbling ever seen from the sidelines: Frances Weston foiled many an enterprising center forward ' s penalty kick by spectacular goal play: Jewel Clifton dribbled and passed her way into varsity center forward: and La Von Osborne, long hair streaming down her back, gave many an opposing forward-liner a pain in the neck as she casually kicked the ball beyond her. It was an eye-opener to discover to which class these girls belonged: two were freshmen, two were sophomores, and six were juniors! f.„, r,.t, ' Hn;- = Tn.,- F Hill M i. Wall. Wol SOCCER Early in October the four classes met and took the first step toward the soccer tournament: namely, each elected its manager. The freshmen chose Laurita Houston; the sophomores. Ruth Slocumb: the juniors. Jane Harkncss; and the seniors. Jacquelyn Hauser. These girls had to attend meetings of the Athletic Board, check attendance at the practice sessions, and be respon- sible for having a full team to play each game of the tourna- ment. November came, and soccer practices were going at full swing: on afternoons scheduled for the various classes to play there were mad scrambles to dig up shorts, kerchiefs, gloves, and. when it got a little colder, sweatshirts and sweatpants. Girls poured out of buildings dressed in every conceivable fash- ion, but with one goal in mind: their opponents! Rough. ' Heck, yes — but everybody knew it was part of the game, and just took bruises, skinned ankles, sprained fingers, and charley-horses as a matter of course. It was all good, clean fun. no hard feelings, and plenty of excrcisci Of course, there were days when it had rained, and the forward line was often carried forward in a recumbent posi- tion, but after all — sweatpants could be washed, and who expected girls ' football to be sissy, anyhow. ' Finally, the week of the tournament approached. Class spirit ran high, but soccer managers ' hearts were low until they were sure they had enough for a complete eleven each day. The tournament began Tuesday. December 6. at 4:30 o ' clock, with the sophomores playing the seniors, the juniors playing the freshmen. Jeanette Hackney. Frances Smathers. and Helen Robbins starred among the sophomores; Jewel Clifton. Grace Clare Taylor, and LaVan Osborne were instrumental in defeat- ing the freshmen. 4-0. although Frances Lister and Nancy Wall did some swell playing. Nobody starred for the seniors, who broke even with the sophomores. Wednesday the seniors defeated the juniors 7-2, Goode. McGowan. and Home starring for the seniors. Church and Tay- lor making it hot for the opponents. The sophomores defeated the freshmen 2-0. Thursday the sophomores defeated the juniors 5-4 in a close game: the seniors defeated the freshmen 7-2. On Monday the semi-finals were played between juniors and seniors. Each side was tough, but the juniors edged out the seniors 6-2. Came the finals, and tension ran high as neither juniors nor seniors scored in the first half. However, by the end of the last half the juniors had won with the score of 2-1. Throughout the entire tournament, class spirit was simply grand, and support on the sidelines certainly helped classmates as they were uproariously cheered on to victory. But for excel- lent soccer, both in forward line and backficld. both in victory and defeat, both in the spirit of those on the sidelines and those on the field, those juniors just couldn ' t be beat! SOCCER BASKETBALL March winds gave way to milder April weather, and girls began trying to do a very simple thing, it seemed: merely trying to throw a ball through a hoop, but oh. how many times it took to do it! As they kept practicing, though, they became more perfect. Soon it was learned that the gym at Central Junior High was to be used for practices; no doubt the lure of once more feeling a smooth, hard floor under the feet had much to do with the large number present. The managers of each class team were de- lighted at the interest shown by attendance, with a possible exception in the case of Sara King, manager of the senior team. No doubt many times she nearly gave up the idea of trying to get the girls together but resolved to try again because practice-teaching couldn ' t last forever! Other managers were Mary Hester Austin, freshman: Jcanette Hackney, sopho- more: and Jewel Clifton, junior. As the Echo went to press, the intramural basketball tournament was scheduled to begin Tuesday, April 18: the next game was to be played Thursday with the finals scheduled for the following Thursday.

' Gtnny might love to study over there too. but the silver-voiced sweetheart of C. B. S. IS probably Virginia Smith ' s future title. CALENDAR September, the most bewildering, bewitching month of them all! Freshmen descended on the college, some sophisticated, others looking greener than the proverbial gourd. Sophomores deposited trunks and suitcases and were off to the drug, whereas their beloved enemies, the juniors, stuck around to locate and help little sisters. Last of all. the seniors came: Where ' ve I been. ' ' Oh. to the beach! Met the divinest boy there or I wanted to get married but since I had only one more year Then, no sooner was everyone settled than Orientation Week and rushing began. Faculty members gave hints to the wise about study- ing, but. of course, they weren ' t sufficient! Irvings and Emersons started their tug-of-war over Susie Freshman, giving formal meetings, picnic suppers, and tea-dances. At last that fatal hour on Decision Day approached: freshmen nervously gnawed fingernails as Emerson big sisters smiled at them from one side of the dining-room and Irving pals beckoned from the other. Came the reckoning, and the Emersons had won by the majority of five! Whew! Every- one traipsed over to the society halls, where Sophia Frizelle was elected Emerson Queen and Virgmia Boren the Irving Bride. Friday, September 16. saw a much quieter group of girls, some of whom had even realized why they were at Greensboro College. A few days later the cauldron boiled over in Europe, and there were cries on the campus of Golly! John might have to go. I ' ll be a nurse if there ' s a war. and It ' s simple. Why don ' t they shoot Hitler. ' But the war scare was soon over temporarily, and on September 23 the students and faculty enjoyed good food, good fun, and good fellow- ship at the annual Athletic Association picnic, held at Guilford Battleground. Also about this time the fall tennis tournament was drawn up with one ace bound for the cliampionship. The juniors decided that their little sisters weren ' t receiving enough attention, so on October 1 8 the two classes gathered around a bonfire near the lake and had beaucoup de fun trampling each other in a mad scramble for weiners and rolls. Came October l . and mucli talk of Uncle Remus was in the air as the Players recreated the beloved characters of Joel Chandler Harris ' Uncle Remus stories. Something else was in the air. loo: Hayfever. scheduled to be given November II. In preparation for one of the two intra-mural tournaments of the year, soccer managers were elected in the four classes. Ihe horse-show at the Fair Grounds gave I.aVon Osborne second prize, and a little more than a week later wild horses couldn ' t have made more noise than did those gesticulating girls with rhythm in their souls who thoroughly enjoyed the formal Hallowe ' en BufTet Supper with its after-dinner dancing later. November certainly was started ofl with a bang as freshmen fell down stairs and but CALENDAR toned to the scintillating, soul-satisfying sophomores on freshman -sophomore day. In spite of hair tied in seventeen pigtails, though. Mickey Ader defeated LaVon Osborne and became tennis champ of the college. The other prevailing sport was soccer, and classes busied themselves perfecting passing, dribbling, and kicking, but gladly ciropped everything for Thanksgiving Holiday. November 2V27. Back again with new permancnts. new pic- tures, and new ideas, the girls eagerly awaited the December 8 presentation of The Cricket on the Hearth. and two nights later hoop skirts and strapless evening dresses were very much in evidence as Inter-Society brought many a corsage to the switchboard and many a probable pain to the pocketbook of be-tuxcd escorts. Meanwhile the soccer tournament was in full swing, and the redoubtable and hard-y juniors finally whipped their senior opponents in two consecutive games, though it was some struggle ' Christmas crept up on little cat feet, but not before all on the campus had one glorious time eating, getting, and giving at the Christmas Banquet, not to mention the lovely candelight White Christmas service held in the lobby at the foot of the beautifully decorated tree. Then came December 17 through January 2. and Home. Sweet Home ! Of course, paradise couldn ' t last forever, though, and when students returned to the campus they found something akin to heaven ' s opposite prevailing, for the dread monster Exams was upon them. Common sights at three in the morning were groggy-eyed sleepy-heads sitting at a desk in the hall before empty coffee- cups, cramming for all they were worth. The world still went on. surprisingly enough, after exams were over, although they left half the freshmen wondering what had struck them. And so arrived the second semester and a new, clean score-sheet in faculty grade-books for each girl. The Collegian suddenly went on a rampage and made a fast and furious drive to improve student government — remember those banner headlines. ' ' Religious [-mphasis Week. February S 10. brought Uncle Bobby Bradshaw to our cam- pus, and the girls thoroughly enjoyed the quiet, inspirational services of one so familiar with leading young people ' s thought. February 14, the most of the girls received candy hearts, but the seniors got something they wanted even more: their caps and gown3 Dr. Gobbcl, Dr. Turrentine, Virginia Patrick, and her little sister. Celeste Home, went through the traditional service, then other seniors were capped and gowned five at a time. Afterwards a reception was given them by the faculty. Dramatic productions galore have been given this year: Overtones and Ladies Alone were given by the freshmen speech classes February 24. and two more workshop presentations were enacted March 28: The Princess Marries the Page and two scenes from Little Women.

About March 6 everything was pretty quiet on the campus, and after searching for a reason, it was discovered that, on the preceding day. the Glee Club had snuck away on its annual ten-day trip. They missed having to blossom out in white dresses on Founders ' and Bene- factors ' Day. March 1 1. but were back in time to help entertain hospitality week-end guests March 23-25. March 29 the four classes decided that affairs in general were going swimmingly, so why not have an intramural swimming meet ' Accord- ingly, umbrella races, balloon races, and other sorts of relays proved the mettle of the fresh- men, who nosed out all other competitors in almost a photograph finish. Never had students and faculty had such a good time together as on the night of Greens- boro College Day, April 4, when they gathered in the dining-room to sing songs and propose toasts. Featured was the juniors ' little ditty to the sophomores. Remember — they had to give an encore? March winds had given way to even breezier April weather, but. rain or snow, sleet or a full moon, the freshmen and sophomores had one swell time April 15 at the Freshmen-Sopho- more. All the girls had returned from Easter vacation with flowing chiffon or net evening dresses, and beginning at 8; ' 50. each Cinderella was in a private heaven of her own until 1 1 :30. Recital time arrived, and much time was spent in Odell listening to highly entertaining and well -given performances of students in voice, piano, and drama departments. May sneaked up on the campus, and (before considering more gruesome things) with May 6. brought two memorable occasions: May Day and Junior-Senior. Polly Brewster was a dream in her be-Iaced white chiffon dress, and the attendants in violet, chartreuse, fuschia. dusty pink, and blue typified the spring fash- ions of ' 39. That night juniors and seniors danced to the champagne waltz, the seniors per- haps a little tearful inside because they realized that their college days were nearly over. At last exam week enveloped everyone in its strange, magnetic power, and seniors spent sleepless nights during and after May 20-26. Finally papers were corrected, and the sopho- mores rose early on the morn of May 17 to pick daisies for the Class Day exercises that afternoon. The next day the Baccalaureate Sermon was preached at West Market ; some freshmen and juniors had already gone home, but the little sisters loyally remained until after Commence- ment. May 29. Then, after much weeping and promising to write to each other, everyone went home to recuperate and enjoy a well- earned la .y sort of vacation. 124] GREENSBORO COLLEGE A DISTINCTIVE COLLEGE— Chartered in 1838, the pioneer of higher education for women in North Carolina.
