DEDICATION . A quick retort, always accompanied by a smile, is one of the character- istics of Miss Womack, which has en- deared her to the Lambuth students. (The smile is evident in the above picture.) BECAUSE SHE EPITOMIZES THE HIGHEST FEMI- NINE IDEALS THROUGH THE FINE, BRAVE, AND WORTHWHILE QUALITIES DEMONSTRATED IN HER LIFE, WE, THE STAFF OF THE 1939 LANTERN, AFFECTIONATELY DEDICATE THIS BOOK TO THE FRIEND, COUNSELOR, AND INSPIRATION OF EVERY TRUE LAMBUTH STUDENT: HELEN WOMACK Registrar of the College PICTURE OF THE YEAR Here Miss Womack is pictured in her office where she efficiently tells stu- dents how many quality points they have or whether they can get a teach- er ' s certificate without such-and-such a course — An ardent basketball fan and backer of Lambuth ' s teams, Helen was taken unawares by the cameraman as she followed the progress of the M. V. C. tournament.

FACULTY LIFE . DEAN OF THE COLLEGE MARVIN E. EAGLE, B.A., M.A. Professor of History A sportsman to the core, Mr. Eagle hunts, fishes, golfs — coaches the basketball teams from the sidelines. He dislikes calling students up on the carpet , but prefers classroom work where he makes historical characters human with illustrative anecdotes. DEAN OF MEN ARTHUR D. OXLEY, B.S., M.A. Professor of Biology In the classroom Mr. Oxley uses the Socratic method interspersed with a sub- tle humor. He never misses a film with Jeanette McDonald, and thinks that 1900 is an especially good year. Why? Be- cause Mendel ' s Laws of Inheritance were rediscovered and he was born. DEAN Of WOMEN WILLA HOUK, B.A., M.A. Professor of Home Economics Swimming, collecting what-nots, and dabbling in paints comprise Miss Houk ' s hobbies. She frankly confesses that most movies tire her, but Wagner in any form, and current fashions interest her avidly. 10
