YE PEDAGOGUE .. .I934 RUTH PAYNE EILEEN O'HEARN MILDRED O'TOOLE l BETTY SANDUSKY DOROTHY SCHANTZ MARIETTA SEAY CATHERINE SNELL MARY VIRGINIA SOEBBINC1 MILDRED WILCOX SENICDI2 CLASS fContinued from Page 62 A Music hath charms, and so hath the musician: es- pecially Marietta Seay who came to us from Paseo High School. Mariettal a capable and talented girl, took primary methods, but even with her school duties she managed to be a Tau Kappa Delta presi- dent, Zg a member of the Chorus, 1, 23 Fellowship Club member, 1, 23 a Student Council representative, 2, 33 president of the S III division, and a member of the orchestra, 2, 3, 45 as well as continue her musical studies. The only fault that Catherine Snell had was that she didn't have any: and she has the rare faculty of knowing that at times the gold of silence is worth more than the silver of oratory. Her first allegiance is toward the Kappa Phi Alpha Club of which she has been a member for four years. She has also- been a vice-president of the Fellowship Club, 43 Division vice-president, 4: Chorus member, l, 2: Nature As- sociation member, 3, 4: and managing editor of the Scout Weekly. Mary Virginia Soebbing is known for her quiet unassuming manner and her lack of stature. But, oh how her personality makes up for her smallness in size. Mary Virginia was vice-president of the Na- ture Asso-ciation, 33 Chorus member, 1, 2: Phi Lambda Sigma member, l, 2, 3, 43 treasurer, 43 chairman of the Cap and Gown Committee, and an accomplished pianist. Mary Titterington is the jeweled pendant in our chain of friends. Her special accomplishments are writing verse and making friends. She has been a member of the Student Council for three years, and the president, 3: president of Kappa Phi Alpha, 2g Athletic Association secretary, 2, a member of both the Glee Club and Chorus, 1, 2, 3, 4, vice-president of the Fellowship Club, 2, winner of seco-nd place for a child's story, l: and first place in poetry, 3. She is the possessor of a T. C. letter and a State QIECI. Mildred Wilcox: It's the song ye sing, and the smile ye wear that's the makin' of sunshine every- where. Whatever are we going to do next year when we go to the library and find no Mildred to inquire whether or not we didn't know that the call slips were there to be used. But no matter what we may do. we are sure that Mildred will be succeeding in what- ever she is undertaking. She was treasurer of the Sophomore class. member of the Kappa Phi Alpha Club, l, 2, 3, 43 a member of the Athletic Associa- tion, Cilee Club, and Chorus. She is a person we will remember for a long time. To Miss ward goes the honor o-f being Senior and Junior Class adviser. We are lucky to have such a fine teacher, friend, and Christian for this position. Words are inadequate to describe her, but we can and do say, Miss Ward, we love you! I Page Seven

YE PEDAGOGUE .... i934 SENIOR CLASS fCOU'fl.UU9d from Page 4j o-f Ye Pedagogue, 3g and was the Junior Class Belle Brummel. We all like our little friend, .lean with her Good- hartl QPardon the pun, but it was so convenientj The Phi Sigs liked her so well that they elected her president, 43 and her division chose her for Student Council representative, 3. She has been a member of the Fellowship Club, 3, 43 and Nature Association, 3. Last year she was the managing editor of the Scout Vfeekly, but still she found time to be the adviser of a Camp Fire Girls' Group. The girl with a charming personality which can rarely be surpassed is Roberta Hayden, better known as Bobbie Presidencies were a mere bagatelle for her, for she officiated as president of the Student Council, 43 Phi Lambda Sigma, 43 and Fellowship, 3. She also possesses a charming speaking voice which helped her to place second in Oral Interpretation at the '33 Lit contest. She was a Nature Association member, Feature Edito-r of Ye Pedagogue, 3: and class treasurer, 3. Truly she is a remarkable girl. Of Esther Horstman we can rightfully say, A winning way, attractive face, ambition fitting her for any place. This charming girl who has already se- cured a teaching position for next year has all the necessary qualities for a leader. She was president of the Nature Association, 23 Credit Chairman, lg Chair- man of the Assembly Committee, 33 Associate Editor of Ye Pedagogue, 25 member of Tau Kappa Delta, l, 2, 3, 45 winner of a Nature letter, lg and the Nature Co-unsellor of a Girl Scout Group. She can play the piano beautifully and was pianist for the or- chestra, 3, 4. A He most lives, who thinks most, feels noblest, acts the best. One who comes up to this formula is Clara Longstreth, the girl who could meet a good time more than half-way and yet find time to study and make those priceless Clara has been a member of the Tau Kappa Delta Club, the Fellow- ship Club, and the Nature Association. She was news editor of the Scout Weekly also. What could Teachers College ever have done with- out this perfect combination of personality, ability, and willingness to work? To Mercedes Latshaw goes the hono-r of being the only person ever to hold both the presidency and vice-presidency of the Student Council. But her activities are not limited to the Student Council, she has also been: Associations Com- mittee Chairman, 4g Kappa Phi Alpha treasurer, 1: President, 3: Chorus secretary, 2: Fellowship Club member, 43 member of winning debate team, 43 and winner of a silver medal for oration in the 1933 Lit contest. Mercedes, it has been a pleasure to know and associate with you. Known to many and loved by all is Freda Mil- berger. This young lady has only attended T. C. for two years, but in that time has found a place in the heart of all her associates. She was declared the Best Individual Debater this year by the judges of the Co- operative Club. She won a gold medal in the Lit contest last year for her essay. Other activities in- Page Six clude: Tau Chi Phi membership, 3, 45 Credit Chair- man of the Nature Association, 4g Scout Weekly Cir- culation Manager, 43 Fellowship Club member, 3, 4: Chorus president, 43 and president of her division, 4. Here is our Queen Rose in the Rosebud garden of girls-Louise Mueller. An over-abundance of ability coupled with a most delightful personality has made Louise the most po-pular girl at Teachers College. There are but few offices which Louise has not held. She has been.: President of the Tau Chi Phi, Fellow- ship Club, Junior Class, and Student Council. Dur- ing her sophomore year she won first place in the Inter-State Speaking contest for Oral Interpretation. She has placed first in Oration, Extempore Speaking, and Oral lnterpretationdin Lit contests. Fo-r two years she filled the Girl Who Has Done the Most for T. C. place on her class ballot. She has been a valuable member in the Chorus, l, 2, 3g Glee Club, 1, 2, 3, 43 and Athletic Association, l, 25 3, 4. She is a girl whom it has been a pleasure to know. Ruth Payne is one of Teachers College's best ath- letes. She has represented her class as a member of a team in every one of the inter-class athletic to-urna- ments since her entrance at T. C. She is the owner of a T. C., State, and Life Saving letters. She has been a loyal member of the Tau Chi Phi Modern Arts Club, and the Athletic Association. Her pep and cheerfulness invite her presence everywhere, Many women are versatile, but to Eileen O'Hearn goes the distinction of being an accomplished pianist, beautiful singer, and talented writer as well as Phi Lambda Sigma vice-president, 43 Glee Club member, 35 Fellowship Club member, 3, 43 Scout Magazine reporter, 45 and International Relations Club mem- ber, 4. In the sho-rt year and a half that T. C. has known Eileen, we have all grown to love our little Irish Rose. St. Vincent's Academy lost one of its most charm- ing misses and T. C. gained one when Mildred O Toole came to us. However, Mildred did not feel lost for she soon made many friends. Among her achievements We find: Student Council representative, 3, Publicity committee, 4: Kappa Phi Alpha mem- ber, 3, 4g Senior III secretary: Glee Club member, 3, 45 Librarian, 4: and Chorus librarian, 4. During the past two years there has been a yo-ung lady stirring the still waters of events at T. C. The secretary of the Senior Class, Betty Sandusky to you, is also a member of the Phi Lambda Sigmas, Athletic Association, 3, 4: Fello-wship Club, 3, 43 Cho-rus, and the Scout Weekly Staff. To these we add- Junior Class vice-presidency, 33 Student Council social committee, 3, 4: and the Student Council publicity committee, 4. Here is a girl that would put us. all to sleep if her clever wit were chloroform. She is our personal nom- ination fo-r the cutest Senior. She has been a member of the Tau Chi Phi Modern Arts Club for the past four years, and was president during her junior year. When only a sophomore she won first place in the A'lit contest for a short story for children. Dorothy is also talented--she can paint beautifully: so she is no-t only an authoress, but also an illustrator. Such heavenly figures from her pencil flow, so warm with light her blended colors glow. fCOUfl.DU9d on Page 7j

YE PEDAGOGUE .,.. 1934 JUNIDI2 CLASS HE 1934 Junior Class is headed by Miriam Dickey as President, Dulcie Baird as Vice-President, Jane Hadden as Secre- tary, and Elizabeth Spencer as Treasurer. The following persons constitute the Junior Ballot: Most Popular Junior.MIRIAM DICKEY Best Student ........... Lois DERBY Belle Brummel ....... JANE HADDEN The Girl Who 'Has Done the Most ICOI' . .THELMA MASONBRINK Jolly Good Girl ...... MARY BENDER Best Athlete. .MARY LOUISE KEIRNAN ' The pictures of the Juniors in the panels are only of those who are members of the J I, ll, or Ill divisions. The J IV division, composed of students who are new at T. C. but whohave enough hours to be classed as Juniors, are found on another page. 'k'ki k With her sunny disposition and her de- lightful power of leadership, Dulcie Baird will always seem to us the ideal girl. Her activities include Fellowship club president, 33 Division president, 2: Junior Class vice- presidentg Athletic Association vice-president, 33 secretary, 2: Chorus, l, 23 Orchestra, l, -2, 3: Nature Association, lg and a winner of a T. C. letter, 2. V Here we have another Baird with a sunny disposition and an irresistible personality- Eileen. She, too, was a member of Tau Chi Phi, l, 2, 33 President, 3, vice-president, 2, and secretary, 23 Nature Association, 2, Stu- dent Council, 2, 3: Athletic Association, l, 2, 33 winner of a T. C. letterg Life Saving Badge, lg Chorus, l, 2, 33 Fellowship, l, 2, 3, Treasurer, 33 and J l president. For three years T. C. has basked in the winning smile of a charming Miss called Mary Bender. The simplicity of her ways and friendly disposition gave us a new in- terpretation of Jolly Good. She was vice- president of the Kappa Phi Alpha, 3: mem- ber of the Nature Association, lg Chorus, l, 23 and Fellowship, l, 2, 3: in addition to being News Editor of the Scout Weekly. lf popularity is a gauge of success, her career as a teacher will be a brilliant one. Page Eight Miss Bertram to the faculty, Thelma to her fellow classmates. What's in a name, anyhow? Enough that she came to our Alma Mater as a frosh from East High School three years ago. Since she entered T. C. Thelma has been a division president, 3g Phi Lambda Sigma member, l, 2, 33 Scout Weekly Feature writer, lg and a mem- ber of the Nature Association, 3. Cheerful- ness together with a willing spirit are quali- ties for which she is known. A fair-haired girl, with an ever ready smile-that's Harriet Brown. During her three-year stay at T. C. she has been known as a diligent student, eager for her share of the work. She has won the admiration of her friends through her modest and pleasing personality. She has been division president, 3: secretary, 23 and a member of the Chorus, Glee club, and Tau Chi Phi, and Student Council. No one will ever forget her, for one does not forget those whom one desires to remember always. A loyal companion, an excellent friend: a real earnest worker and true to the end - that's what we think of Maxine Burns. In her three years at T. C. she has been a mem- ber of Phi Lambda Sigma, l, 2, 3: secretary, 35 Nature Association, lg Chorus, 2, 35 Fel- lowship club, 3: and division President, 3. She might be shy and rather hard to get ac- quainted with, but when you know her you are more than well paid for your effort. Wim, wigor, and witality -that's Jean Dancy. In an admirable fashion she has sup- ported and taken part in many athletic events, and has won the T. C. letter, 2, State let- ter, Zg Life Saving badge, 2, 31 as well as being a Camp Fire Girls' Adviser, lg Tau Kappa Delta member, 2, 3: and a member of Fellowship and Athletic clubs, l, 2, 3. And still the wonder grew, that one small head could carry all she knew. XVhose head, did you ask? Why Lois Derby's, of course. Not only was she the Best Junior Student, but she also found time to be the Managing Editor of the Scout Weekly, 3: Ye Pedagogue Class Editor, 2: Vice-President and secretary of Tau Kappa Delta, division president, lg and lead a group at the Mexican Mission: as well as to write beautiful verse and place second in poetry at the l933 Lit'f contest. Miriam Dickey is just another proof that all good things come in small packages. For fContz'nued on Page 92
