among the Sophs when we placed second and saw our own Grace Loyd as rinfj- master. Time swiftly flew tcj February 1 4, which to some meant Valentine ' s Day but to the Sophs, class production. Nancy Whitehead turned the Rec into a GayNineties saloon with flora ' dora girls, bicycle built for two, and the unforgettable Cile Sarver in her own interpretation of By the Sea. This year we went into business and undertook the management of the coke machine, a main source of revenue. Those who took care of our responsibilities were our officers, Margaret Ellett, president; Grace Loyd, vice-president; Betty Bibb, secretary; Betty Minetree, treasurer; and our ever loyal classman, Miss Her. It was not long before spring air bree2,ed through our windows, and we journeyed to the roof for those lovely sun tans. Each tone of the bell rang out the last days of a year filled with joys shared and rang in the realization that we too would soon become a part of the Building. THE FRESHMAN CLASS yQ HERE is Room 22? Where do we go now? These were questions we were asking that unforgetta ' ble day in September. It wasn ' t too long, though, before our spirits became part of the spirit of S. T. C. The orientation classes helped us to learn more about the college which was now our Alma Mater. Big sisters were always there to help us, and the reception they gave started our social life at Farmville. Soon, going to classes. studying, eating, and playing were things that ju.st naturally occurred every day. Rumors soon spread that our rat caps were here, and one afterno ' )n we were found kneeling proudly before the sophcy m(jres to be capped. Anxious as the upper classmen to find out who (jur officers would be, we elected Peepsie Brocjks, pre.sident; Virginia Tin- dall, vice-president; Anna Kucera, secre- tary; Mary Lou Bagley, treasurer, and Miss Dabney, classman. Many freshmen walked the straight and narrow when the lordly sophomores reigned over us the two days of Ratting. ' Twas all in fun, though, with Jean Givens proclaimed as Best Rat. More fun and hard work were around the corner when we presented our class stunt at the annual circus. We were proud, too, of our vic- torious runners in Color Rush and the freshman hockey players who defeated the sophomores Thanksgiving. After Christ- mas our talents were revealed in our pro- duction. We visited on Annex and Gym frequent- ly, knowing that each visit brought a won- derful year closer to an end. It gave us a preview of our coming sophomore year when we would actually live there and be more a part of S. T. C.
