For I Tvas a son unto ml) |fl| father, tender and only beloved in the sight , H of my mother. And he taught me and said unto me: let thy heart retain my xeords; l(eep my commandments, and live; get wisdom, get understanding ; forget not, neither decline from the Jvords of my mouth; forsake her not and she will preserve thee; love her and she will keep thee. Wisdom is the principal thing; therefore get wisdom; yea, with all thy getting get understanding. n l i ® Proverbs 4:1 . Dear Heavenly Father, we pray Thee, grant us under- standing. Understanding to rightly interpret our life here during this year. Understanding to do our work cheerfully and loyally, as Thou wouldst have us do it. Help us to grow in knowledge of each other, so that we may live together in friendliness. And finally, dear Father, help us to grow in un- derstanding of Thee. All this we ask in Jesus ' name. Amen. niRODUCI nS THC BOOK Soft gra walls, lerra-cotta roofs, rvhite columns glistening in the sun, spruce and pine trees pointing long needle-fingers to- ward the s i) — these things merge to form the setting for our life here at college. To us the]) will alit}a )s recall Harrisonburg. With this thought in mind throughout the hook ii e have used them as the background against which the incidents and events of this vear weave their pattern. It is a pattern composed of man]) parts — of hours in class, hours of studv, hours at play, class games and games with visiting teams, club meetings, teas, and quick ' ' ' P ' o town at four-thirty. For convenience we have grouped these various incidents under six large headings. These are — FACULTY CLASSES ORGANIZATIONS ATHLETICS OUR MIRROR ADVERTISEMENTS SENATOR GEORGE N. CONRAD Died January 21, 1937 He was always here, at call, when we needed him, and we needed him for many things. He never failed us. May we not fail him and his ideals for us. One of the founders of this college, he watched over it in an untiring vigil. His last chapel talk was an impassioned appeal for righteous living through trustful obedience to his Saviour and Lord. That our daughters mav be as corner-stones, polished after the similitude of a palace. I I I LSON HALL, being ad- I I ministrative head • I I quarters as well as I I main class building, I 1 seems a fitting open- 3 ing to this faculty section. The acrid tang of Dr, Converse ' s pipe, the click of typewriters, capped and gowned Seniors lining up for assembly, the ceaseless chat- ter of groups waiting for the mail to be put up — all these are charac- teristic of Wilson ' s varied atmos- phere. The third floor resounds with saws and hammers from the crafts class, interspersed with measured words from public speaking, while microscopes, formaldehyde, frogs, and earthworms point the way to the biology ' laboratory. The little willow tree, palely green in spring, spark- ling and ice-incased in winter, no longer stands outside the north door; the cloisters were built across this spot and the willow had to go. Yet through all the changes and ceaseless activity Wilson itself re- mains, the focal point of the campus, symbolic of the school. c u m r .N ;-. ;j tl r m ' 1 rmM m m bial..

I ' , ' I fel u, • •• ' Samuel Page Duke, President PROGRESS, 1936-37 IT is from the far-seeing eye and far-reaching ideals of the president of a college that progress in giving the students cultural and material advantages originates. Persevering effort and a genuine regard for the happiness of others must be, it seems, the qualities of a person who procures the thmgs of beauty and useful- ness for the enjoyment of those who work m contact with him. The first addition to campus this year was the new dormitory. Junior Hall. With an enrollment of eight hundred nineteen, six hundred eighty-seven of whom were boarding students, it was greatly needed. A thing of beauty it is! Those of us who watched the ant-like transportation of clothing and personal belongings of Seniors from Johnston Hall to the new Senior Hall, and who marvelled at the charm of such a college residence, can well appreciate the consideration Dr. Duke gave to making Junior Hall even more charming. The rather confining color scheme of green walls and doors was transformed in Junior Hall to brown, which has made the choice of room decoration unrestricted. Two upholstered chairs, sound-proof plaster, and three hundred dollars worth of evergreens around the dormitory are other significant items. Thirty-nine pictures were acquired from the Federal Arts Project of the P. W. A. Half of these pictures are oil and water color paintings, and half are etchings, lithographs, and woodcuts. The pictures were given to the college as an indefinite loan from the government. They have been hung in places frequented by large groups of people, and are essential cultural additions to our campus. Probably the most appreciated evidence of cultural progress, and that most enjoyed, is the new Moeler organ, which was installed in Wilson Auditorium in January. The organ was designed by R. O. Whitelegg and built by M. P. Moeler, Hagerstown, Maryland. It is a beautiful four-manual organ of three thousand four hundred pipes, varying in size from three-eighths of an inch to sixteen feet in length. The tonal develop- 14 ment of the instrument was under the direct supervision of Mr. Whitelegg. It has a clear, brilliant tone and is ever an incentive for intelligent musical appreciation. Maury Hall has been known to us as Maury Science Hall, and through the years the growing student body and even more expandmg home economics body resulted in very crowded working conditions in this build- ing. So, half of the science department was moved to Wilson Hall to enable the home economics department to expand. Besides expansion in room space, a complete dietetics laboratory was built in Dr. Phillips ' s lab room. The equipment consists of a six-unit kitchen. Each unit, which will take care of four students, is built in the shape of a U. There are base and wall cabinets where from blackboards we once copied dissecting instructions. The working surfaces are of pressed wood, the sinks of stainless enamel with swinging faucets. A new gas refrigerator, three gas stoves, and three hot point electric ranges are part of the six-unit plan. Black and white with a suggestion of red is the color scheme. Flower Shop China is an artistic addition. We remember how, between Wilson and Reed, the wind used to nearly blow us down to Main Street, and how, when going from Wilson to Reed or Maury on stormy days, we would be rained upon. How, then, could we fail to realize progress in the new cloisters bu;lt there for our comfort. In the spring we noticed beauty in the ground imp o ements laid out by landscape designers. Few of us, however, noticed the copper piping in Maury Hall. A d we scarcely realize the steady, gradual addition of books into our library, numbering about one thousand books a year. We have also made progress in personnel. Dr. Paul Hounchell came to our Education department from the State Teachers College of Alabama, and a little later. Miss Lois Pearman, from the State Teachers College at Denton, Texas, joined the staff of Home Economics teachers. Miss Mona Lyon, from Peru State Teachers College, Nebraska, is our instructor in commercial subjects and handwriting, offered for the first time this year. He who does not advance, falls back; he who steps is overwhelmed, distanced, crushed; he who ceases to grow greater, becomes smaller; he who leaves off, gives up. . . .

They have worn the old boards smooth and left hollows in the stone steps. It is the oldest dormitory and, could it talk. It would tell of many things. It would tell of study hours, of after- lights feasts, of chatting groups in the radio room, of water battles in the halls, and spooky trips through the tunnel at night. Daisy chains have been made in its shade, class days planned. And the maple tree near the sun dial, under whose limbs the Hiking Club now gathers, was once a tiny thing planted by the first class. These two, symbolizing growth and the passing of happy hours, reflect the spirit that per- vades the four classes. L fi 5 5€5 Ml.

W. C. A. FOUR YEARS PASS As time has marched on durmg the past four years, radical changes have occurred m all phases of human activity. History has been made, and is still in the making, which is vitally influencing the behavior of society and which will long continue to affect it. Hence the significant problem confronting society is the adaptation of its individuals to the ever increasmg perplexities of life. We who are Seniors in the class of 1937 are aware of the dynamic era that is ours, are cognizant of its confusion, and conscious that adjustment in the adult world is not the same task which confronted us as Freshmen in college. Four years ago the scene of our education shifted from various high schools throughout the country to the blue-stone buildings of this campus. We came filled with enthusiasm, energy, and ambition, ever con- fident that we should succeed. The year was a period of orientation and adjustment. In just a few weeks of association with a large group, we began to realize the necessity of changing many of our habits of living if we were to fit into this new environment. The year was a happy one, though. Aside from classroom activity some were fortunate enough to belong to clubs and to enjoy working and playing in small, specialized groups. All of us formed new and interesting contacts, and many of us made delightful friendships. SENIOR CLASS COUNCIL Left lo right — Front row : Louise Bishop, President; Mary Janet Stuart; Elizabeth Younger Bac roTV : Betty Martin; Adelaide How- ser; Mary B. Cox; Mrs. Blackwell 42 As Sophomores we filed into the blue-stone buildings with the assurance and confidence which is usually characteristic of the second-year class. We were thrilled to greet our classmates and proud to dictate to the Freshmen — a swagger soon to be shaken. Sorrow, too, was to come our way, for during the year we lost one of our classmates. We left behind us an idealistic world filled with fantasies and illusions and came face to face with reality. Tragedy deepened but softened our lives. The year was a difficult one, but it taught us the lesson of strength and fortitude. When we became Juniors we were eager to exercise the traditional privilege — that of becoming big sister to the incommg Freshman class. The trust and confidence of our little sisters inspired in us high ideals and aroused in us the pleasure of guiding others and helping them avoid difficulties we had met. Many of us became campus leaders with large responsibilities and many duties. We loved the work and sought to uphold high standards always. Suddenly Senior days, which had seemed so remote, came upon us. We were startled to find ourselves actually in the graduating class. Yet we have accepted the challenge which has been ours, as Seniors, to assume responsibility willingly and to enjoy sharing ideas and interests with our fellow students. These blue-stone walls of our buildings are solid and rest upon a firm foundation. They are sturdy and strong. In relief they are softened by the beauty of the environment, but they will continue to remain sound. We have learned to love them and are grateful for the protection they have given us these four years. — Mary Knight 4ar f Janet anJ Claudia on Senior Day . . . Sunday nighl feast . . .

President; Mary Wright; Emma Rand; Martha Fitzgerald SOPHOMORE DAY ' ARBED in white dresses with green aprons and chefs ' caps, members of the Sophomore class appeared — for their second class day on January twenty-second. The assembly period, conducted by Maxine Cardwell, president of the class, was very well suited to the occasion. The program included several selections by the Sophomore members of the Glee Club and an appropriate poem. The Sophisticated Sophomores had every courtesy given them — even the privilege of occupying the Seniors ' seats on this day of days. Harrison Hall took on an unusual appearance on this special day and was attractively decorated in the class colors of green and white. A string of pots and pans and other culinary equipment hung overhead and furnished an atmosphere of real domesticity. In the evening the entire class were guests at a formal banquet in Blue-Stone Dining Hall and reveled in green and white ice cream. The entertainment was contmued in the gymnasium with various acts in the form of a well-balanced progressive dinner. The master of ceremonies had an ingenious magic cat pet which carried the guests to several famous hotels where the courses were served. The first stop was an appetizer as a ballroom dance at the Waldorf-Astoria. The main dish was a minstrel show which included tapping, songs, and jokes. There was an orchestra led by Ina Ray Hutton Fitzgerald that was swinging it, at the Steel Pier in Atlantic City. Then to Hollywood Hotel, where a delicious salad was served, which was really a song by Doris Fentress. Returning to New York on the magic carpet, we found Dot Day doing a feature tap dance which furnished a satisfying finish to the dinner. 59 FRESHMAN OFFICERS AND SPONSORS Reading from left to right — First roip : Brooks Overlon.

M f C| %V 65 HE Music Room, with its seri- ous atmosphere of study and work somewhat offset by the gigantic fern near the window, forms the back- ground for much of the activity of various organ- izations. Announcements reach club members from the dining halls and the bulletin boards concerning some meeting to be held in the Music Room immediately after lunch, or after dinner. The double doors open, groups gather. The responsible and the nonchalant seat themselves, while the impatient stand on tiptoe in their hurry. The last minute ar- rangements for some program the club, is forwarding, an important suggestion which a president has come upon, a practice for the Glee Club, a vote to be taken, a decision made — all these crowd the moments snatched for the call meeting. And so from the Music Room in Harrison have sprung some of the most worth- while contributions which organiza- tions have made to their campus.

Democracy is something deeper than liberty; it is respon- sibility. So goes the motto of the Student Government Association, and the thought which it expresses is the goal which the student body, guided by the Council, each year strives to reach. It is due to the friendly understanding and cooperation between the students and the Council, both seeking the same ultimate goal, that we have been able to enjoy the wider opportunities and privileges which have been granted us this year. Throughout its work Student Government tries to emphasize constructive growth rather than restraint through punitive measures. However, when problems do arise, the Council handles them swiftly, adequately, and then endeavors to find the cause and so prevent their arising again. One of its best measures in this respect is the sponsoring of the Handbook in which all rules and regulations, together with helpful suggestions and information, are set forth in a simple and concise form. This little book is put into the hands of all students at the beginning of the session. Freshman and transfers are given hand- 68 Eleanor McKnighl Martha Way Mary Knight Alma Curtis Alice Doss Margaret Glover Craddock Hammersley Marion Killinger Virginia Lee Marlin Pence Josephine Sanford Helen Shutters Margaret Smiley Virginia Smith book training courses so that they will not, through ignorance, get into difficulties which otherwise they would have avoided. The picnic supper for all students, held the opening week of school, was one of the first activities sponsored by the association. A little later, a tea was held for the new students so that they might feel at home and learn to know personally the Student Government officers and Council members. In October, the New Girl-Old Girl Wedding, symbolizing the union of old and new students into one group, again emphasized the importance of working together in order to make the school year a successful one. At the installation ceremony of the new Student Government officers in March, the students were fortunate in having Dean Harriet Greve of the University of Tennessee as their assembly speaker. Her winning personality and interesting talk delighted everyone. After the installation service the outgoing and incoming presidents left to attend the Southern Conference of Student Government Officers, which was held in Spartansburg, South Carolina. 69 THE YOUNG WOMEN ' S CHRISTIAN ASSOCIATION Adelaide Howser President Louise Faulconer Vice-President Helen Mitchell..... Secreiarv Susan Quinn Treasurer Advisors Mrs. Bernice R. Varner Miss Grace Palmer Mrs. Annie B. Cook Dr. Walter J. Gifford Mr. Raus M. Hanson Adelaide Howser The Young Women ' s Christian Association, through its leader, Adelaide Howser, who was assisted by a cabinet of twenty members, has made new strides this year. The cabinet developed new ideas for the better application of the work of the Y to the campus community, and presented a varied and well-planned sequence of programs. Beginning with the spring quarter of last year, when the new administration took office, the first big thing was to make the Easter Sunrise Service as successful as that presented previously. At Eastertime an egg hunt for the Children ' s Home in Harrisonburg and for the faculty ' s youngsters was held. At the annual spring cabinet retreat plans were laid out for the coming work in the next semester. The organization included in its fall program the Big Sister - Little Sister ceremonial of helping adjust new students. A New Girl - Old Girl party was given, and the Y. W. C. A. sponsored a tea for the new students. Along with this social program was a Hallowe ' en banquet to which came witches and ghosts. A very colorful and impres- sive Christmas pageant was pre- sented. The students contributed wholeheartedly toys for distribu- tion by the Y. W. C. A. ' ' Tivas ihc nighl before Chrtslmas . . .

W. C. A. room so that it would be a more pleasant and comfortable place for group discussion and a desirable place for individual retreat. Freshman and Sophomore Cabinets were formed — a new idea, and a vital step toward unity of representation in the actual work of the Y. W. C. A. The Social Committee has sponsored work with the youngsters at the Harrisonburg Children ' s Home and a Thanksgiving drive for the poor or underprivileged. It has sent flowers and cards to those students and faculty members who experienced sickness or grief. The Y. W. C. A. has arranged several exchange programs with the Bridgewater Y. W. C. A. and Y. M. C. A. Three delegates went to Richmond in February to the district conference, and two delegates were sent to the Southern Student Conference in North Carolina where, with Y. W. C. A. and Y. M. C. A. workers from all over the South, they discussed ways of making their programs more vital and meaningful in college. 71 THE ATHLETIC ASSOCIATION Retha Cooper President Martha Wratney Vke-P resident Ann VanLandinghaM-— Business Manager Willie Lee Powell Business Manager Martha Fitzgerald Assistant Business Manager Emma Rand Secretary Margaret Shank Treasurer Advisors Mrs. James Johnston Miss Helen Marbut Miss Dorothy Savage Retha Carson Cooper The Athletic Council, composed of the Association ' s cfficeis, the class representatives, and sports leaders, is the directing body of the Athletic Association. In sponsoring a varied and interesting program of activities throughout the year, the Council aimed to meet the needs and interests of every gi ' l. In the program of sports, intercollegiate hockey and basketball were promoted, also interclass hockey, basketball, tennis, swimming, baseball, and golf. For those who desired outdoor activity of the non-competitive type, the Hiking Club proved to be a source of recreation. Remember Reform, or Tit for Tat, a musical comedy written by Dolores Phalen and directed by Hannah Goodelman, was presented by the Athletic Association in January. Having its setting in a fictitious college, the play was successful because of its collegiate air, its wit, and its dancing. Carrying out the custom initiated by the association last spring, this year ' s Council made known the May Queen, the Maid-of-Honor, and the members of her Court, by the tapping service. The small corsages used for tapping were made of spring flowers which carried out the school colors, pur- ple and gold. A major activity of the association in the spring was organizing and presenting the May Day Program. The author, director, ami pari of the cait of the Athletic Association ' s p al), Remember Reform, talfe time out after the performance. 72 Jean Bundy Margaret Byer Martha Fitzgerald Marguerite Holde Helen McMillan Willie Lee Powell Leslie Purnell Emma Rand Ruth Schafer Margaret Shank Arline Sierks Virginia Uhlin Ann VanLandingham Anita Wise Martha Wratncy The sports leaders, elected by the student body, the class representatives, and varsity captains, who made up the Council, were as follows: Arline Sierks Senior Class Representative Leslie Purnell Junior Class Represenlctive Martha Fitzgerald Sophomore Class Representative Ruth Schafer Freshman Class Representative Helen McMillan Hockey Sport Leader Willie Lee Powell Basketball Sport Leader Marguerite Holder ..STvimrr.ing Sport Leader Frances Holler Tennis Sport Leader Rose Feldman Baseball sport Leader Virginia Uhlin Coif Sport Leader Jean Bundy Hiking Sport Leader Margaret Shank Varsity Hockey Captain Margaret Byer....

This year, during which there were three hundred papers from colleges and universities submitted, was the second year the local publication was entered and was awarded this rating. The Breeze, which has attempted to follow the policy inaugurated last year of stimulating an awareness of, and interest in, activities, has also attempted to keep the students in touch with world news through a column of commentaries on national and international happenings. Furthermore, in line with this policy. The Breeze sponsored a straw vote previous to the national presidental election. Three delegates represented the publication at the National Collegiate Press Convention in Louisville, Kentucky, while nine staff members attended Lois Sloop, Editor-in-Chief Alice West, Business Manager THE EDITORIAL STAFF Reading from left lo right — BacI rorv, standing: Margaret Cockrell, Susan Quinn Second roa, standing: Anita Wise, Doris Fivecoat.

The selection of staff members was placed upon a strictly competitive basis, reporters being chosen according to rating on tryout. Preparatory work in the principles of journalism was also given to prospective staff members. Approximately sixty students have served on the editorial, business, and typist staffs during the year. Various changes in the makeup, headline type, and feature sections were instituted. The publication has gained much through cooperation with the school journalism and news service. Retiring staff heads are: Lois Sloop, editor-in-chief; Alice West, business manager; Dolores Phalen, assistant editor; Helen Hardy, copy writer; Patricia Minar and Frances Taylor, head writers, and Ila Arrington and Mary Jane Sowers, news editors. 75 THE SCHOOLMA ' AM STAFF This year, contrary to custom, the staff itself has designed the page layouts for the entire book, for we wanted it in all its phases to be truly the product of our work. How we struggled with cut sizes and the relation of white space to type and pictures! No doubt, being very inexperienced, we have made blunders. However, we did enjoy doing the work and hope that as you look through the book you will enjoy it with us. Realizing how vital are good snapshots to a yearbook, The School- Ma ' am purchased a Welta action camera to use in recording the events that take place. Special effort was made to tell the story of this year in snap- shots as well as in words. Under the direction of the snapshot editor a series of contests were held, so that pictures representing all phases of student life might be obtained. At the beginning of the session the staff conducted a program in Assembly in order to stimulate interest among the student body and to explain just what goes into the making of a yearbook.

These programs, which were conducted in the form of open discussions, permitted wide participation of the various members. Foremost among the problems considered were what comprises true scholarliness and by what means true scholarliness may best be encouraged on our campus. In the latter part of the year, a study was directed toward a survey of salaries of Virginia teachers. In addition, the program schedule introduced two guest speakers: Mrs. Stanley, who spoke on Amer- ica, the Last Stronghold of Democracy, and Miss Dinwiddie, who spoke on the National Association meeting held at New Orleans. 78 On February second, the Alpha Chi Chapter celebrated its eleventh anniversary. At this time Dr. Wilson Gee from the University of Virginia delivered an assembly address on The Problems Facing the South. The program for the day further included an afternoon tea, sponsored by the chapter for the honor students on campus. The organization endeavors throughout all its activities to promote and maintain a high degree of professional fellowship among its members. The Alpha Chi Chapter, therefore, keeps in touch with its graduates in the field by sending a letter each year to all such former members, mforming them of the activities of the organization, the results of investigation and survey, and of the general progress of the college during the course of the year. Among its other activities is the maintammg of a scholarship fund to which students meetmg certain requirements may apply for assistance. The members also coach those students who need help in their studies.

In any school certain standards must be set and upheld. The rules enforced by this committee are not for one ov two, but are for the general welfare of the student body as a whole. This organization has tried and succeeded in seeing the viewpoints of the students on the problems with which they have been confronted. This year the girls were granted the privilege of wearing ankle socks, except to dinner at six. Thus a former worry of the members of the Standards Com- mittee has been eliminated. Standards Day is always an important event on campus. At this time the committee sponsored exhibits of flowers suitable for dormitory room use, writing paper proper for various occasions, and examples of correct social correspond- ence. The fashion show, held that night in the auditorium, in which the girls modeled clothes actually worn on campus, was an effective climax to the day. 80 THE STANDARDS COMMITTEE Agnes Arnold Dorothy Beach Virginia Blain Dorothy Day Rosa Lee Fowikes Marjorle Fulton Bertha Jenkins, Chairman Elizabeth Strange Helen Willis THE SOCIAL COMMITTEE Tea for two or two hundred — it really makes no differ- ence — Social Committee always stands ready to serve. Long or short notice — their high standard is always maintained. The many times we have witnessed the lovely formal teas and din- ners, which show hours of careful planning and preparation, the great pride and satisfaction all of us have enjoyed at the dances have been due to the work of this small but adequate com- mittee. The fire is lit in the big fireplace, candles wink from mantel- piece and tea table, flowers nod in big vases, the soft hum of conversation arises — the tea has begun. The members of the Social Committee go from group to group, always exhibiting the same ease and poise. Or perhaps it is a formal dinner which is to be given. Invita- tions are written, place cards made, music procured. Thus the Social Committee fills its place in campus life and, often quite unaware, sets the standards for social activities at the college. 81 BLUE-STONE COTILLION CLUB K.ATHERINE Bf.ALE President Marjorie Fulton Vice-President Ruth Bodine Secretary Mary Porter Treasurer Elberta Rice Business Manager Betty Martin Sergeant-at-Anns The Blue-Stone Cotillion Club is composed of a limited membership of sixty girls who are interested in dancing and have shown ability in that direction. The Cotillion Club started its activities for the year by entertaming the new girls on October 23. The party was an informal doughnuts-and-cider affair and served as a welcome to the Freshmen and other new students on campus by members of the club. The girls who were taken mto the club during the fall quarter were entertained by the traditional Cotil- lion breakfast, given in the Palm Room of the Kavanaugh Hotel on October 1 1. The largest, most formal social event of the year is the annual mid-winter dance sponsored by the Cotillion Club. It was held this year on February 6 in the Big Gym, with Jelly Leftwich and his orchestra furnishing the music. A dansant was held in the afternoon. At night the formal card-dance was arranged with a break-dance after each card-dance. The gymnasium was decorated m red and white, and the windows The Figure al the MiJ-lVinler Dance 82 were covered with red and white drops, suggesting an old-fashioned lady and gentleman dancing. Following the president of the club and her escort, the members and their escorts marched. As the couples came through a lace-covered heart at one end of the gymnasium, each girl pinned a while carnation boutonniere on her partner. T he figure was composed of a diamond formation merging into an H and ending with the silhouette of a heart. The couples, beginning with the officers, started dancing one at a time while the orchestra played The Wallz You Saved for Me and Love You Truly. A new activity this year was the tea given in Alumnae Hall Reception Room the last week in February. Each member of the club was able to invite two friends who were not in the cluh to be her guests at the tea. Members of the organization also assist in the preparation of other school dances during the year. | W- - ? J l ' y O y Beach Beale Bean Beazley Bishnp Blain Bundy Cowden M.

Wayland, formerly a professor of history at this college, pre- sented to the society two bunches of violets tied with white ribbons which he had saved since 1909. These flowers were used as favors at the first open meeting of Lanier during the first year of its organization. Dr. Wayland told hew the school colors of purple and gold had been selected from the colors of the two literary societies then on campus — the gold from Lee and the purple from Lanier. The speaker also told the students of a letter which he had, written to him by Mrs. Lanier. Sidney Lanier spent one summer at Rockingham Springs, later called Hopkins ' Springs, a summer resort near Harrisonburg. While he was here he used a small table, now in possession of this club, on which he wrote the Science of English Verse. Three times each year the new members are initiated. Goats of this society may be recognized on campus in the traditional white dress, wearing a replica of Lanier ' s favorite flower — the violet, carrying his best-liked musical instrument — the flute, and a suitcase, because he liked to travel. At the weekly meetings this year miscellaneous topics have been discussed. The programs have been varied with prose, poetry, drama, book reviews, and movie criticisms. Other activities of Lanier were the banquet in Blue-Stone Dining Hall on Lanier Day and a recep- tion in honor of the new students on campus given m the early fall. 85 LEE LITERARY SOCIETY Ila Arringlon Virginia Blain Alpine Beazley Marguerite Bell Jean Bundy Virginia Byers Maxine Card well Margaret Clark Mary B.

Its colors, gold and Confederate gray, were chosen as being symbolic of Lee ' s character and life. The gold is an emblem of purity, while the gray represents service. The society ' s seal is a sword lying across an open hook. This symbolizes the union of courage and knowledge. The members of Lee Literary Society are bound together by an interest in general literary culture for mutual advancement. The society attempts to encourage these interests in literature and to uphold the ideals of the great man who is its inspiration. During the fall quarter the society entertained all the new girls at an informal party. Early in January the members themselves spent a week-end at the college camp on the Shenandoah River with their sponsor. Dr. Rachel Weems. On January I 9, General Lee ' s birthday, the society honored him in chapel. It presented a program of Civil War songs, which were sung by some of the members in costumes typical of the sixties. The most impressive figure of the group was General Robert Colvin, a Confederate veteran. That evening the annual banquet for Lee members was held in Blue-Stone Dining Hall. The society ' s programs for the year have centered around contemporary women writers. The members have followed this theme in an effort to acquaint themselves with leading women in such fields as drama, novel, journalism, poetry, humor, and others. Because of their wide scope, the programs have been of general interest to all. 87 •- ' } .- .H f - ?

Spencer Anne Wood Adelaide Howser Page Literary Society, organized in 1 92 1 , has become deeply rooted and firmly established in the life of the campus. It was named for that well-known literary son of Virginia, Thomas Nelson Page. Each quarter on goat days red and white figures run hither and yon at the beck and call of the old members, bowing three times in the traditional manner whenever they meet one of their superiors. The duties imposed upon the goats range anywhere from writing soulful letters to scrubbing bathroom floors. To make the new girls feel at home, Page entertained them at a tacky party in the fall. In striving to be the tackiest and make their personalities match their costumes, the new girls forgot their homesickness and greenness for one riotous evening. Later in the year some of the new girls, prospective new members, were entertained informally in the Radio Room in Harrison. In the fall quarter modern poetry was studied. Under the direction of Virginia Smith, chairman of the Program Committee, the works of Louis Untermeyer, Eleanor Wylie, Amy Lowell, Edna St. Vincent Millay, and Robert Frost were reviewed. One meeting was made especially interesting by Miss Hoffman ' s reading some of Robert Frost ' s poems. The winter quarter was spent in the study of the poetry of Dorothy Parker, as planned by Mary Frances Taylor. It was decided in the spring to study some short stories and work out skits from them. Some of the skits were used in the chapel program in the spring. 89 ALPHA LITERARY SOCIETY Alpha Literary Society, in meeting the students ' growing interests in the various fields of fine art, divided into separate groups, each group offering its members self-expression and development in a particular field of achievement. Throughout the year there has existed a Drama Group, which specialized in the study of drama, a Travel Group, which was carried away on vicarious trips, a Novel Group, which spent its leisure time with books, a Current Event Group, which kept up with world news, a Poetry Group for prospective bards, and a Rural Life Group, which declared its independence and became a separate organization. Alpha Literary Society was the latest literary society formed on campus, and main- tains an open membership to all students. Besides the separate group meetings, a general meeting of the club is held every month. Alpha has as one of its aims the promoting of friendship among students who have similar interests m the field of literature. During the year Alpha sponsored a chapel program, a Y. W. C. A. program, and several teas. The Groups ' activities were interspersed with several trips to the college camp. Reading from left to right — First ron ; M. Bowman; Goodwin; Johnston; Weaver; Lynn; E.

Logan Director Dr. Argus Tresidder Completing its second year under the direction of Dr. Argus Tresidder, the Stratford Dramatic Club has presented plays unequaled by those which it has produced before. Through the associate membership plan the club has been opened to a far greater number of students and has made it possible for not only members of the club but anyone interested in trying out to participate in the dramatic productions. This plan has also proved effective for discovering new talent. Besides membership as a recognition for success in acting, the club admits members tor achievement in staging, make-up, costuming, lighting, business management, and directing. There were twenty-four full members and sixty associate members, who may later ac- quire full membership by working on the productions and achieving recognition based on the quality of their work.

Three one-act plays, Danse Macabre, by Muriel and Sidney Fox, The Maker of Dreams, by Oliphant Down, and Lady Luck, by Marion Short, were presented by the club in January. The most dramatic production ever attempted by the club, The Silver Cord, by Sidney Howard, met with wide applause at its presentation in March. The Senior-Sophomore play, given just before Commencement, rounded out the work of the club for this year. 93 Gifford Bole Jolly Finney THE GLEE CLUB Presidenl Daisy May Gifford yice-Presidenl Annie Sue Boles Secretary CATHERINE JoLLY Business Manager HiLDA flNNEY Librarian LaFayette Carr Director Miss Edna Shaeffer Honorary Members Miss Frances Houck Miss Gladys Michaels The Glee Club found its origin in the year in which the college was established and was more formally organized in 1915. It was the first college glee club in the state to affiliate with the Virginia Federation of Music Clubs. This organization, under the direction of Miss Edna Shaeffer, whose unfailing devotion to her profession is an inspiration to all, is one of the most active clubs on campus. The Glee Club has furnished music of the highest standard for many programs on campus, including the Alumnae program. May Day program, Commencement Exercises, and a special Glee Club Chapel Day program. The organization presented a Christmas Vesper service, and a delightfully inspiring Palm Sunday Vesper, with the cooperative singing of the choiri of five Harrisonburg churches.

It performed at the Presbyterian and United Brethren Churches in Harrisonburg, attended the State Music Convention at Petersburg, sang at the John Marshall Hotel in Richmond and at the Randolph-Macon Men ' s College, with whom it has exchanged programs. They gave a concert at the Virginia Polytechnic Institute in Blacksburg. The Glee Club participates m the Shenandoah Valley Apple Blossom Festival at Winchester, where the club each year serves as the Queen ' s Chorus. Last spring the Glee Club float in the Apple Blossom Festival Parade won second place. The members of the Glee Club maintain a high standard for singing ability and receive the best of training under the direction of Miss Shaeffer. 95 AEOLIAN MUSIC CLUB Aeolian Club is an honorary organization and was formed for the purpose of further- ing music appreciation on campus and presenting a broader field of self-expression to students with musical talent. To be a member of Aeolian is to be recognized as an individual of outstanding musical ability among the college students. In keeping with the aim of furthering musical self-expression, the club gives two scholarship awards during the year. This year Evelyn Faught won the scholar ship for voice. The Alumnae of the club furnish the financial aid for the scholarships. These are awarded after the contestants ha e been given certain tests by the club and music faculty. The weekly club meetings were devoted to comprehensive studies of the lives and works of various master composers. The Aeolian Club provides the music for all banquets and teas, or other social affairs, and helps with private recitals and programs. Mrs. Clara Cournyn, a member of the music faculty, serves as the club sponsor. The officers this year were Julia Kilgore, president; Lena Mundy, vice-president; Elsie Jarvis, secretary, and Ruth Spitzer, treasurer.

For four years the members of this club have been actively engaged in promotmg better friendship among the day students and actmg as a medium through which they may become acquainted with the resident students. The club began its program in the fall with a tea and fol- lowed this throughout the year with a variety of stimulating activities, including a luncheon, a picnic supper, and a week-end at the college camp. It also presented a Y. W. C. A. program and was represented in chapel with a musical program by Mr. and Mrs. Caleb Cushings of Shenandoah College. This year the forty-one members selected pins to wear in designation of their membership. Mrs. J. K. Ruebush, Mr. Clyde P. Shorts, aTid Mr. George Chappelear, who are members of the faculty, sponsor the club. The officers were Elizabeth Hickerson, president; Dorothy Sla- ven, vice-president; Alice McCormick, secretary; Elizabeth Lambert, treasurer, and Effa Lineweaver, sergeant-al-arms. 97 THE ART CLUB The purpose of ihe Art Club is to encourage a belter spirit toward art and to help those who are especially talented. The main activity of the Art Club this year was to do over the Art Studio so that its atmosphere would be more conducive to art work. Donning smocks and flourishing dust mops and paint brushes, the old members, as well as the goats, went to work with a will. Dust flew — and so did paint. What matter if almost as much paint was found on the floor, and on the members, as on the furniture? Everyone had a good time, and the results were gratifying. The members were also kept busy preparing their masterpieces for the e.xhibit, which was held in the spring. This was set as a goal for the club to work toward at the beginning of the year, and each member endeavored to have some of her best work ready for the e.xhibit. For several years an art contest has been held at the college for the school children of the county. The Art Club members are very essential to the contest by helping in many ways. The club was under the leadership of Elberta Rice, president; Wanda Spencer, vice- president; Eleanor Harrison, secretary; Mary Ella Carr, treasurer, and Lucille Webber, chairman of the program committee. Miss Aiken, Miss Palmer, and Dr. Pickett serve as advisors.

This organization takes the responsibility of the college garden, which is located behind the music conservatory. Here the members, who are taken into the club solely through interest and expression of willingness to work in the garden, plant, take care of, and cut the flowers. These f.owers are the most popular varieties of annuals and perennials and are used for social functions on campus and for dining room and dormi- tory purposes. Plants, bulbs, and seeds are furnished by dona- tions from faculty members and students. During the winter, when the members were unable to work in the garden, they took as their project, Famous Gardens of Virginia, which they studied in detail. Miss Palmer, the club ' s sponsor, works with the members in helping to plan and keep up the garden. This year ' s officers were Ruth Pullen, president; Elizabeth Sprague, vice-president, and Anna Bailey, secretary-treasurer. 99 O C k Koontz Bubb Sale Bargh INTERNATIONAL RELATIONS CLUB Hazel Koontz President Doris Bubb Vice-President Sue Belle Sale Secretary Agnes Bargh Treasurer Margaret Carrico Librarian Honorary Members Mr. John McIllwraith Dr. Otto Frederikson Mr. Raymond Dingledine Mr. Raus M. Hanson The International Relations Club was organized last year for girls who were especially interested in international affairs and who felt a need for such an organ- ization to increase their knowledge of the working of economic, social, and political relationships among nations. They also wanted an opportunity to satisfy their curiosity about current affairs (the daily reading of the newspapers being a rather arduous task). The club ' s programs include discussions of the happenings in many countries. Dr. Minor Miller of Bridgewater College spoke at a special meeting on Germany. Together with the Debating Club, I. R. C. sponsored a mock election. Democratic, Republican, and Socialist parties were represented. In the campaign program, parades, banners, party rallies, and stump speakers proved effective means of getting votes. The students registered as in a real election and, a week later, the polls were open from sun up to sun set so that the registered voters might cast their ballots. 100 Linda Barnes Louise Boisseau Margaret Byer Ethel Cooper Retha Cooper Marie Craft Alma Curtis Mary Darst Catherine Driver Ethel Driver Louise Faulconer Margaret Fitzgerald Helen Hardy Faye Icard Audrey K.ilmon Virginia McCue Dollie Mott Dorothea Nevils Evelyn Patterson Margaret Peats Susan Quinn Virginia Rader Emma Rand Carrie Roane Margaret Shank Helen Shular Margaret Smiley Mary Ellen Smith Elizabeth Sprague Margaret Turner Mae Woodson The club IS fortunate in obtaining from time to time books on various subjects of international importance, which are supplied by the Carnegie Endowment for Peace. These books prove a source for many interestmg and instructive programs. Three delegates, including the president and the president-elect, were sent by the club to the Southeastern Convention of I. R. C. ' s, which was held at the Alabama Polytechnic Institute at Auburn, Alabama. On their return they gave an interesting account in Assembly of the discussions and speeches attended, as well as of the social side of the convention. On April 23-24 the Virginia State Convention of International Relations Clubs met on the campus. Two of the club ' s members held state offices, Louise Faulconer being state president and Agnes Bargh, state treasurer. Delegates from all parts of Virginia were present, and the work of the organization was vividly brought before the visitors and the student body through speeches and round-table discussions. 101 ALPHA RHO DELTA Alpha Rho Delta is an organization of honor Latin students. The purpose of the club is to develop an increased appreciation of Latin and Greek literature. The motto of the club, when freely translated, means We choose the highest things. Throughout the year the club has been concentrating on the completion of a model Roman house which it is building. This model contains nineteen rooms and a peristyle. It is expected to be of great practical value to the Latin department when finished. At their usual meetings the members have heard reports on the lives and works of the major prose and poetry writers in both Latin and Greek literature. When the formal part of the program was completed, each member would produce her paint brush and, amid much chewing of brush holders and frowning over instructions, the work on the Roman house would continue. During the spring quarter the club held its annual reception at the home of its sponsor. Dr. John A. Sawhill, and reveled in old coins and curios. Alpha Rho Delta is affiliated with the Omega Delta Club of Harrisonburg High School. The officers were Minnie Quinn, pr esident; Clara Bruce, vice-president; Mary Wright, secretary; Lurlene Walker, treasurer, and Elsie Jarvis, chairman of the program committee.

Much interest during the latter half of the year was devoted to the production and presentation of L ' Homme Qui Epousa Une Femme Muelle. The play, a two-acl farce, gave an opportunity for deft characterization and interpretation, since the lines were spoken in French. Last year when the club sponsored a French motion picture, it established a new precedent. The French Circle plans to continue the practice of securing, if possible, a French cinema each year. In May the organization paid homage to its patron saint, Joan of Arc, on her birthday. The members wore the insigna of the club, the fleur-de-lis, and placed a wreath on the statue of Joan of Arc in Harrison Hall. The theme of the assembly program conducted the same day emphasized the life of this French heroine. Another activity planned for the spring quarter was a picnic at the college camp. Miss Elizabeth P. Cleveland is sponsor of this foreign language group. The officers were Florence Rice, president; Mary Wright, vice-president; Helen Shular, secretary; Nancy Earman, treasurer, and Mil- dred Garnett, chairman of the program committee. 103 THE DEBATING CLUB The Debating Club has enjoyed a varied program this year in fulfilling its forensic duties on campus. Early in the I all the Debating Club, collaborating with the International Relations Club, launched a straw vote for the presidential election. The voting, which included the registration of about seventy-five per cent of the student body, was carried out by secret ballot. The club furnished some of the party leaders, campaign managers, and speakers, who kept the political machinery moving. During the debate season, efforts were made to give experience to as many members as possible. The schedule included practice debates and scrimmages, as well as intercol- legiate debates. The entire season was focused on the national question: Resolved, that Congress should be empowered to fix minimum wages and maximum hours for industry. In the first scheduled debate, Harrisonburg ' s affirmative team met the University of South Carolina. Later the club presented a negative team in a spirited clash with Farmville. Traveling out of state to the University of South Carolina was another negative team. On April 8 the season drew to a close with the Harrisonburg-Bridgewater debate over the local broadcasting station. The sponsors are: Dr. Frederickson, Mr. Mcllwraith, and Mr. Dingledine. The officers were: Helen Shular, president; Margaret Smiley, vice-president; Helen Pulliam, secretary, and Anna Bailey, treasurer.

In accordance with its purpose of fostering an interest in philo- sophical subjects on campus, the club holds meetings twice a month, open to any students and faculty members who are interested. These meetings are forums for discussions where everyone takes part. At the first meeting of the club Father Lee of the Catholic Church in Harrisonburg spoke on Catholic philosophy. The next topic taken up was Beauty. This was discussed in three phases, in art, in music, and in literature. Political philosophy, including fascism, communism, and democracy, and a discus- sion of the mechanics of the modern world, proved a most interesting topic for programs. On April 5, Dr. William Weedon of the University of Virginia, a special guest of the club, spoke to a large body of members and visitors on Plato ' s Theory of Beauty. With interesting discussions such as these taking place, it seems inevitable that this club will soon interest a large part of the student body in philosophical subjects. Dr. Walter J. Gifford is counselor. Linda Barnes was secretary and Jessie Goodman, librarian. 105 THE RURAL LIFE CLUB This club was newly formed this year in order to promote better understanding among the students who come from rural districts. The first interest was gained through former 4H Club members, who formed an Alpha Literary Group and later broke off into an independent club. At its semi-monthly meetings the Rural Life Club discussed questions pertinent to the problems of the rural school teacher, and the students who attend rural schools. The club has been addressed by Mr. Blair, assistant county agent of Rockingham County, and by Miss Mattlock, home demonstration agent. The club entertained the V. P. L 4H Alumni for a week-end on campus. It is affiliated with the Nalio.ial Rural Life Association, and it has an open member- ship to all the students of the college. This year ' s membership was composed chiefly of Freshmen who were 4H Club members formerly. The enrollment grew to forty members as interest was aroused. Mrs. B. R. Varner, of the faculty, is sponsor. The officers for this year were: Louise Hankla, president; Maria Bowman, secretary; Mary Jane Gum, treasurer, and Elizabeth Abbott, chairman of the program committee.

Eligibility in Sigma Phi Lambda is determined by high scholastic attainment. Those qualified for membership are: (1) Freshmen whose names appear on the first honor roll for the first quarter, (2) Freshmen who have a B average at the end of the second quarter, and (3) Sophomores who have a B average on their work. Sigma Phi Lambda signifies scholarship, fellowship and leadership among college Freshmen and Sophomores. At bi-monthly meetings, each program is led by a committee which develops the topic through individual talks and panel discussion. This year the club had as its main topic of discussion Personality Development. At each meeting a dif- ferent phase of the subject was brought out. The subjects included: The Influ- ence of Heredity and Environment on Personality, Art in Personality Develop- ment, Drama in Personality, Literature in Personality Development, and Culture and Personality. On March 8, Sigma Phi Lambda conducted a chapel program. At this time Mr. Nelson Huffman, head of the Music Department at Bridgewater College, sang. Miss Bessie J. Lamer is sponsor. The officers were: Janet Miller, president; Louise Boisseau, vice-president; Katherine Stone, secretary; Eleanor Hill, treas- urer, and Jane Logan, historian. 107 CURIE SCIENCE CLUB President Lelia Stinchfield Vice-President Agnes Thompson Secretary Alpha Spitzer Treasurer Mary Edna Glenn Chairman of Program Committee Carrie Roane Sergeant-at-Arms Ethel Driver Sponsor Dr. Ruth L. Phillips The Cune Science Club was founded in the fall of 1934, its purpose being to establish an association of persons interested A. Spitzer Glenn in science and scientific research in all its branches. The club has made rapid progress until it is now one of the leading organizations on campus. This is well exemplified in its large membership of sixty science majors who meet once a week to discuss the problems of science. This year the club has been divided into five groups, chemistry, biology, nutrition, astronomy, and geology, into which the members place themselves according to individual interests. Upon each group falls the duty of preparing a program to be presented before the entire club. This year the club has discussed the various phases of science, including such topics as the Pure Food and Drug Acts and the protection they offer to the public. Miss Blosser, of the biology department of the Harrisonburg High School, spoke to the club on Biology in the New Curriculum. Dr. Phillips, the club ' s sponsor, discussed the outstanding modern scientists and their scientific discoveries. Also as a representative of the club, she spoke at the Y. W. C. A. meeting on Science and Religion. At a chapel program in the spring quarter the club presented a movie on science in order to interest the student body in the progress of science. Every member, upon entering the club, is also required to become a junior member of the Virginia Academy of Science, in order that the organization may acquire full recognition. On May 7 and 8, a special bus was provided in which all the members who desired went to Charlottesville, to attend the meeting at the University of Virginia of the Virginia Academy of Science. Here the members had an opportunity to find out what is really going on in the field of science and greatly profited by their trip, which they repo rted to the other members.

MaRY B. MORGAN Vice-President Alice MARSHALL Secretary ISABEL RusSELL Treasurer Olivia Wooding Chairman of Program Committee NiNA Hayes Chairman of Social Committee Nancy White Sponsor Miss Julia Robertson Formed for those students who are interested in various fields of work related to home economics, the Frances Sale Club was organized several years ago and named for Miss Frances Sale, the first home economics teacher at Harrisonburg, whose splendid work with little equipment inspired those with whom she was associated and set a worthy example for those who were to follow. It is the aim of the club to give all home economics girls who desire membership training in club work and leadership. The sponsoring of a variety of activities creates interest among the members and furthers the work of the department. This year the Frances Sale Club has engaged in many worth- while activities, which have afforded valuable training and experi- ence to those participating. These activities have included the preparation and serving of refreshments at teas given by the various organizations on campus, and the presentation of interesting and instructive programs at the meetings. A special drive which was made this term to increase the club ' s membership has been most successful, and the enrollment has reached a record number. Many students transferring from other schools were taken into the club soon after their enrollment, because of their ability and interest in the field of home economics. Always a growing, active organization, the Frances Sale Club contributes much to the progress of student extra-curricular activ- ities in the college. no ■P E f P W ' « $■ . i A ' 0 1 £ Q ? f? 9 1 f CI c v © f O 1 . ?i€ i fc C ' o f ■ ' i f f r t:i ' .  V ' t ' - ' ' Abbott E.

It also has the added value of giving outdoor exercise to students not interested m varsity or class sports, of providing physical recr eation of a mild sort, and of reducing rotund freshmen. This organization is open to all who enjoy hiking and nature study. To those members who hike fifty miles or more, with twenty of the fifty miles in ten-mile hikes, a letter is awarded. The club this year was under the leadership of Jean Bundy with Faye Nelson Quick, Mary Ellen MacKarsie, Willie Lee Powell, and Anita Wise as group leaders. Hikes were made to Pleasant Hill, the Frog Pond, the town reservoir, Dayton, Massanutten Peak, and other local points. The climb up the peak, with Dr. Duke as leader, is an annual event that is enjoyed by a large number of students. 1 he club program also included week-ends at the College Camp near Port Republic. The total enrollment was 252 members. Reading left to right — Front roTV : Bundy, Merritt, Bullock. Quick. Gum. Powell, Nash, Hale, Thompson, MacKarsie, Coleman, S.

Caroline Schaller The Blue-Stone Ensemble this year was under the new direction of Mr. J. Edgar Anderson, formerly of Shenandoah College. This orchestra is composed of college students who show special talent in playing orchestra! instruments and persons in Harrisonburg who show a special interest in the orchestra. The orchestra gives programs on special occasions by invita- tion. With the aid of the string ensemble of Shenandoah College, it furnished the music for the Christmas Vespers, playing The Pastoral Symphony from The Messiah. Some of the more accomplished members of the orchestra were later asked to play at the Shenandoah College in t heir presentation of The Messiah. The ensemble also sponsored a special chapel program and played at the commencement exercises. 1!3 I I HENEVER tired clubs or I I individuals feel a need I I for rest and recreation, I I straightway they hie %, themselves to camp for the week-end. Stiff muscles, sunburn, or an occasional fall into the river are matters of small concern when com- pared with the fun had in rowing the boat with one oar and one paddle, hiking to the cliff in the early morn- ing, or telling ghost stories to the accompaniment of the rain drum- ming on the tin roof of the sleeping porch. However, camp is not the only place for recreation; campus, too, offers many possibilities. Search- ing for lost arrows among the trees and shrubbery on Hillcrest lawn con- not dull the thrill of accomplishment which comes with the making of a bull ' s-eye. ' And how often does Reed gymnasium resound with excited voices — with the hilarity accom- panying a badminton match, or with the massed cheering at a big game.

On October 5 fifty-seven varsity hockey players appeared on the field to begin practice. With fifteen of last year ' s team back and a great many new girls, the season was under way. Raw winds, snow flurries, and bruised shins could not mar their enthusiasm. October 12-13 — Miss Mildred Knott visited on campus and coached the varsity squad. Miss Knott is captain of the English team which visited here in the United States during the International Tournament at Philadelphia. Miss Edith Higgins, also a member of the English team, spent a few hours on campus. October 1 7 — Margaret Shank, Harrisonburg, and Margaret Byer, Hagerstown, Maryland, played with a Sweet Briar mixed-team in a game against the visiting English team. These two girls were chosen when Sweet Briar asked for a left wing and left halfback from Harrisonburg. 116 October 24 — Miss Maibut, Maigavet Shank, and Helen McMillan attended the International Hockey game at the Philadelphia Cricket Club. October 31 marked the date of the opening of the hockey season. This first game was the annual combat with Sweet Briar ' s fast and skillful players at that college. Even though the H. T. C. team played a fine defensive game, the score finally became I 4-0. On November 7 Westhampton College and Harrisonburg, two rather evenly matched rivals, fought for a victory on H. T. C. ' s territory. An excellent day and fast playing permitted the puiple and gold squad to roll the score from a 0-0 tie of last year to a 4-0 victory this year. The traditional Alumnae- Varsity battle on December 18 resulted in a victory of 4-1 for the Alumnae. Some prominent alumnae players were back wielding the sticks once again. Varsity suffered from the loss of five of their players to fill the opponents hne-up. Margaret Byer, left half-back on the Varsity team, was chosen to play with the Vir- ginia Hockey team in Baltimore on November 28-29. She also played in the East-West Tournament at Farmville State Teachers College. At the Hockey Banquet on December 9, the emblems, accompanied by appropriate jingles, were awarded to the varsity members by Miss Marbut, varsity coach. Then Ann Bell VanLandingham, Petersburg, received the rabbit ' s foot from Margaret Shank. She will succeed Margaret as Captain next year. Shanl maizes a shot in ihc IVest- hamplon game . . .

Under the leadership of Margaret Byer, Hagerstown, Maryland, captain of our I 937 team, and no doubt materially aided by the traditional luck which the rabbit ' s foot brings, the H. T. C. squad won by a score of 44-13 over their opponents in this first encounter. With this boost of twenty-nine points over Lynchburg, the team journeyed to West- hampton College, Richmond, to play the first big game of the season with their long standing rivals. Despite a hard-fought battle, Harrisonburg made a score of 1 8 to Westhampton ' s I 0, thus continuing its lead over one of its oldest competitors. The first home game of the season, that with the transfer students of Savage School of Physical Education on campus, proved to be one of the most exciting games witnessed, with the score at the end reading 24-23 in favor of the H. T. C. girls. The two teams were very evenly matched. On February 20, the purple and gold sextette faced strong opposition in a battle with the team from the Savage School of Physical Education in New York City. In this first intercollegiate game on the home court, the two teams fought to a 1 0-8 score m favor of Savage. On the following Friday, February 26, Harrisonburg suffered its second defeat at the hands of Farmville State Teachers College. By an outstanding offensive and defensive game, the Farmville girls secured a total of 23 points over Harrisonburg ' s 14. When the Varsity tied a team from New College of Columbia University with a score of 19-19, the student body witnessed the most spectacular game of the season. The score was tied by a free shot tossed by the Harrisonburg forward just one second before the game ended. The annual Alumnae-Varsity basketball game played at Homecommg is always of interest. Especially was it exciting this year when the Alumnae squad tied the score at 19-19. Considering the little time for practice, the Alumnae put up a strong fight. On March 12, at the annual basketball assembly program, those girls who had made the varsity team were awarded their letters or stars, as the case might be, by Dr. Duke.

At the close of the season the Seniors held first place, with the Juniors running a close second. The Freshmen, showing unusual ability, came m third. An odd-ev en game was scheduled to close the season. Two teams were chosen from the sister classes, and the players were announced by Miss Marbut, varsity coach, at the hockey banquet — and then it snowed. So what would have been the most exciting game of all was not played. Helen McMillan, diminutive left-full on the varsity squad, represented the student body as hockey sport leader. The following girls were their class hockey sport leaders: Senior, Margaret Poats; Junior, Ann VanLandingham; Sophomore, Letitia Holler; Freshman, Jean VanLandingham. The scores of the various games were: Seniors vs. Freshmen 1 -0 Seniors vs. Sophomores 3-0 Seniors vs. Juniors 4-1 Juniors vs. Sophomores 0-0 Juniors vs. Freshmen 4-0 Freshmen vs. Sophomores 1 -0 BASKETBALL With the Freshmen giving the Juniors a close race for first place in interclass basketball, enthusiasm ran high throughout most of the season. Perhaps the most exciting game outside of the Junior-Fresh- man clash was the victory of the Freshmen six over the Seniors. Those girls selected to lead their class squads were: Peggy Bullen, Senior; Margaret Glover, Junior; Janet Wimer, Sophomore; and Rachel Crocker, Freshman. Billie Powell, Hopewell, was chosen by the student body as basketball sport leader. Billie was a member of the varsity squad both her Freshman and Sophomore years and is known for her agility as side-center. At the close of the season those girls who played on their class teams were awarded their respective class numerals at the basketball assembly program. The scores below show a championship for the Juniors, second place for Freshmen, third and fourth places for Seniors and Sophomores, respectively.

Crocker 120 Reading from left to right: Feldman, Kohn, Pittman, Linkous Bruce, Pridham, Law, Holder BASEBALL SWIMMING In the spring a young girl ' s fancy turns to thoughts of baseball and the athletic field again becomes an unusually popular place. When sixty- odd Freshmen reported for practice, their sport leader was frantic with finding positions for all of them to play. (Perhaps a new game with more players could be invented.) Curves, four balls, strike one were heralds to a spring season of home runs. This year interclass baseball has been under the direction of Rose Feldman, school sport leader. With the help of the four class leaders — Senior, Peggy Bullen; Junior, Myra Pittman; Sophomore, Yvette Kohn; and Freshman, Virginia Linkous — the class teams were given many workouts and were ready for the long-looked- for season with the first call of batter up! At the close of the season the baseball sport leader presented numerals for participation in class baseball to the class sport leaders for their respective groups. Those players receiving emblems had met definite requirements. What a splash! Interclass swimming is under way. It is climaxed by the annual swimming meet between the four classes, which this year consisted of crawl, breaststroke, and backstroke races, relays, plunge for distance, and diving. Competition in diving was in two groups, intermediate and ad- vanced. The Senior team, under Edith P. Hogan, took first place, while the Freshmen, led by Jane Pridham, ran them a close second. The Juniors, under Clara Bruce, and the Sophomores, under Georgette Law, tied for third place. Marguerite Holder, swimming sport leader for the school, tied for individual honors with Jane Pridham and Ruth Schafer. On April 1 a team picked from the four classes met an independent team from Richmond. The Cavaliers swam to a 47-19 victory over H. T. C. A team from Fairfax Hall, Waynesboro, exhibit- ing almost perfect form in swimming and diving, defeated the H. T. C. Freshman team by a score of 34-20 on April 22. INTERCLASS SPORTS 121 Reailing from left to right : Allstock. Wralney. Holler. Wise, Bean Acton. Rew. Whitehead. Uhlin, Clark TENNIS GOLF Sheets on which to sign for class tennis were posted early in the spring and practice was soon under way. Indeed, so eager were a few of the participants that they were found playing on the courts long before the nets w ere put up. The girls are divided into three groups, accord- ing to their ability: the beginriers, the intermediates, and the advanced. All are given an opportunity to play, their names being placed on the tennis ladder according to their respective classes and in the order of their ability. The contestants play until the win- ners in each class alone remain. These girls then play to determine individual and class championships in singles and doubles. There is always much interest shown in these matches by spectators as well as by participants. Frances Holler represented the student body as tennis sport leader, while the class sport leaders were as follows: Senior, Martha Wratney; Junior, Rebekah Bean; Sophomore, Anita Wise; and Freshman, Geraldine Ailstock. While golf is not so much played by the students as some of the other sports, nevertheless, there are enough ardent enthusiasts every year to compose teams from each of the four classes. Using the college nine-hole course for practice, the girls start as early in the spring as the weather permits. Each sunny day finds the course resound- ing to the shout of fore, while the numerous small holes in the turf attest to the fact that some new devotees are likewise learning the art. The season is brought to a close by each sport leader ' s selecting a foursome to represent her class in the final tournament at the Spotswood Country Club. Here the finals are played, and the contestant who turns in the best score is awarded the tour- nament cup. Virginia Uhlin represented the student body as golf sport leader. The sport leaders of the respective classes were as follows: Senior, Maud Whitehead; Junior, Josephine Acton; Sophomore, Mary Clark; and Freshman, Winifred Rew. INTERCLASS SPORTS 122 INTERCLASS SPORTS TRACK MEET On your mark! is the echo often heard from the track field as commencement time approaches each spring. Track shoes are brought to hght again, and one-time high school champions practice faith- fully in the hope that they may break a record by leaping beyond the farthest edge of the jumping pit, or clear the bars without cracking them too disas- trously. The officials-to-be pore over rule-books and debate among themselves what positions they shall fill. The annual track meet for the freshman physical education classes was held this year on Saturday, June 5. The officials were sophomore physical education majors, this work being a required part of a course m sports which they were taking. The track meet closed the spring quarter of fresh- man physical education. Every section of these classes was represented in the following events, which make up the program: fifty-yard dash, fifty- yard low hurdles, fifty-yard shuttle relay, running high jump, running broad jump, discus throw, javelin throw, basketball and baseball throw. CooJ Form in le Javelin ThroTV CHEERING SQUAD Banded together to make the seventh girl on the basketball team or the twelfth member of the hockey squad, the cheer leaders are people to whom we can point with pride — if they stay in one place long enough. Under the leadership of Anita Wise, var- sity cheer leader, the cheering squad has drawn strong vocal support from the student body. They were the cause of much school spirit, enthusiasm, and sore throat at the intercollegiate and intra-mural games this year. Numerous songs and cheers have been taught by the squad. Another feature most successful was the figure marching under the direction of Edith P. Hogan and Blanche Rudinsky. This was a dis- tinctive between-th e-half feature of several varsity games. At the New Girl - Old Girl game the Savage transfer girls gave tumbling skits to the delight of the hoarse crowd and the tired cheer leaders. The cheering squad included Letitia Holler, Ruth Schafer, Helen Jahnke, and Margaret Clarke.

I n winter its ice- encased branches tinkle with every movement of the wind, or sparkle in the wan sunlight. No matter what the season of the year, the old elm is always a thing of beauty. Its memories, too, are beau- tiful, for it has seen beautiful things. Robins have found safe places for their nests upon the gnarled old limbs, and there have made their homes. It has witnessed the dawn of many May Days, seen many May Queens crowned. Countless girls have found it to be an inviting spot for picnics, or for quiet meditation. And just as the placid, wee stream mirrors the varying moods of the tree above it, so this section of the book mirrors some of the highlights of this year. UR m a '   . o s ■ .

And the bird is on the wing. 133 MAY 8, 1937 May Day has been celebrated in various ways for many centuries. Every festival was an expression of joy over the coming of the season of warmth and productivity after the long cold months of winter. This was taken for the theme this year. The scarf and balloon dancers opened the program. When they were finished the Queen, with her court, appeared and was crowned by her Maid of Honor. Then dancers from many ages came and enter- tained Her Majesty. The Roman floral dance and the Druid ritual fire dance represented the religious celebrations which in old days welcomed the first of May. Later celebrations grew away from the religious origin and were purely folk festivals. Troubadours, knights and ladies in lofty headdresses, and green clad archers represented the May Day of the Middle Ages and entertained the Queen with dancing, jousting, and singing. After this, shepherds, milkmaids, and chimney sweeps danced the traditional country dances. The pageant closed with a grand recessional, and the colorful figures following the Queen and her Court gradually disappeared behind the hill. Qounir)) Dancers Perform for the Queen.

V 3 Books are dropped, last - minute primp- ing done and, soon after the sound of the bell has died away, chatting groups in twos and threes emerge from the stone- flanked gateways of the college. All have one purpose, to reach town be- fore the stores close and make the needed purchases — perhaps ma- terial to ma ke a new dress in sewing class, a pair of white oxfords to wear now that the weather is warm, a magazine to while away some drag- ging minutes, or merely a double- chocolate sundae to satisfy the crav- ings of a sweet tooth. Again, per- haps a movie is in order. Did you remember to sign me off? ' is the familiar word on departing, while Wasn ' t he just too grand! heralds those returning to the campus.

' W HILL Secretary IN THE JULY. l!i()v;, issue of THE ENGRAVER AND ELECTRO- TYPE H, a two-piige article announced the fornuition of a new orgauization. The message began witli the statement. The Photo- engraving firm of great pro mise is that of the Jahn and Oilier Engrav- ing Co. This ])rophecv was a truism, borne out with the passing of the years, eacli one of which recorded an orderly and steady growth. More skilled men were developed within the organization, newer machines and cameras replaced equipment as fast as they iiecame obsolete, and on five occasions it liecanie necessary tn find larger quarters until at present the firm occupies its own modern, iircj roof building. Parallel with this unceasing expansion there came an ever-widening clientele, whose increasing patronage eventually placed the Jahn Oilier Engraving Co. in the position of unquestioned leadership. For many years we have been the largest School Annual engravers in America; and in the commercial field we serve a distinguished group of the most progressive national advertisers. To us, this measure of success calls for no laurel wreath. Rather, we accept it as a solemn respon.sibility. realizing fully that tlie pacemaker not only .sets the standards of quality and service for the industry, liut must sustain them by his accomplislmieiits. Ours is a simple formula : Andjition, honesty and integrity, constant hard work, keeping abreast of improvements, building a loyal capable organiza- tion, and treating our customers as fairly as we expect then to treat us. All these factors have become welded into a fi.xed policy, and it will remain constant — unalterable — as the years continue their phantom march.
