v - THE LIBRARY STUDENT BUILDING LONGWOOD COLLEGE FARMVILLE, VIRGINIA DOCTOR DABNEY S. LANCASTER a a (lit aj: i LHan The 1950 Virginian is dedicated to a man of vision, a man of accomplish- ment, — wise in vision, diligent in duty. He has endeared himself to the hearts of Longwood students both for what he has done and for what he is. His dignity and straight forward sincerity demand the respect of everyone who meets him. His true friendliness has warmed our hearts. His gracious courtesy has made our president also our friend: Dr. Dabney S. Lancaster. Richardson Cottage, Boy ' s Dormitory, Longwood Estate CONTENTS THE COLLEGE CLASSES ACTIVITIES nalket ai ei iait eat, . . . in the history of Longwood College has been completed. We began the year with a new name and with a dormitory for the men students. During the year we acquired the new science building, the Edith Stevens Hall; our new audi ' torium, Jarman Hall, was started. Even the Main Building acquired a new name, RufFner Hall. THE STAFF Joan of Arc, Rotunda, Ruffner Hall Cunningham Hall a3hIS year all four classes have co- operated to make this one of the most notable years in the history of the college. New ideals and old traditions have kept the spirit of the student body high. The Freshmen found the year full of new habits and friends; the other classes found It full, too, of challenge and happy work. DR. DABNEY S. LANCASTER, President Dr. Dabney S. Lancaster, who has always considered himself a member of the class of 1950, has completed his fourth year as president of the college. During the past four years he has become the most respected figure on campus. His interest in us and our activities, the friendliness of his smile and speech make us glad that he is our president. THE FACULTY and ADMINISTRATION Dean Savage, the Dean of the College, has been our counselor and guide for the past several years. Without his aid, we feel that getting settled in college life would have been much more difficult. Whenever possible, he would readily change our schedules and suggest the proper courses and classes that would fit our individual needs. William W. Savage Dean of the College One of the most gracious and poised women on our campus is our Dean of Women, Miss Ruth Cleaves. She has completed her second year in this position and has won the love, the respect, and the loyalty cf each member cf the student body. Her helpful suggestions and kindly wisdom have never failed.

October brought Circus, and the laurels again went to the Seniors with their ' ' Cod ' Fish Ball. Roady, our lovely queen and Circus chairman, graced the throne as the musical sailors, mermaids, jelly ' fish, shrimp, octopus, whale, and other marine life paraded and entertained the court. It was really a lively Ball. November caught us playing hockey and running in the color rush. Coming out on top again, we were really feeling among the chosen lot. Yes, again the Red and Whites could flaunt the banner. Thanksgiving was already being blessed for arriving just in time to give the student teachers time to heal the callouses caused by grading papers. December fought hard with the sunshine but the first snow arrived the night before the Senior Snow Ball and really set the stage magnificently, but by night fall there was rainfall and sky loads of it. Yet all arrived in full attire with their best beaux. We swelled with pride as our officers led us in the ' ' figure , and we sent bouquets of appreciation to Hank and to Helen for making our dance hall a winter wonderland. The evening was brought to a close with coffee and doughnuts and just one more dance in the Rec. Surprise was supreme when the Sophs gave us a Merry Christmas party with Russian tea and cookies and candy from St. Nick. Many ancient circus and prO ' duction songs were brought back to life. Then all soon went home to a glorious vacation. January and a new semester found our numbers decreased by mid ' year graduates, but still we pressed onward. Orchesis recital, The Plum Tree, had many seniors in the paradoxical branches as Hilda, Ray, Nock, Kitty, Sue, Betty, Mary Lou, Katie, and Robbie worked their limbs and voices in manner strange. Of course the radio fans will never for ' get the Voice of Longwood or should I say Voices ? Nock, Betty F. and Betty H. were most enthusiastic over announc ' ing, and Page and June and Puckett most helpful at the piano on those on the air moments.

ACH year a compilation of the biographies cf outstanding students in America is published. To be eligible a student must be a junior or a senior, or must take advanced work. The purpose of the publication is to bring the outstanding students in America to the attention of the business world and to others who are interested. A committee composed of members of the administration and faculty selected the seniors to represent Longwood College in the sixteenth edition of Who ' s Who Among Students in American Colleges and Universities. ' ' These students were chosen because of their extra-curricular activities, leadership, and scholarship. Our newly organized men ' s student body is represented for the first time by one of the co-eds who played a major part in helping to organize the men students on our campus. Those selected from the class of 1950 were Elizabeth Anne Bragg, president cf the Women ' s Student Government Asso- ciation; Dolores Duncan, president of the Y.W.C.A.; Jacqueline Eagle, editor of the ROTUNDA; Martha Hyltcn, vice-presi- dent of the Women ' s Student Government Association; Anne Langbein, editor of the COLONNADE; Stuart McGhee, presi- dent of the Men ' s Student Government Association; Ann Nock, president of Granddaughters Club and active in dra- matics; Ray Phillips, president of the Women ' s Athletics; Norma Roady, presi- ent of the Senior Class; Jacquelyn Wright, president of the House Council and Alpha Kappa Gamma.

We were all right there together on three floors for the first time. We didn ' t make very much noise. Tippy Toe and ' ' Easter Bunny had a hard time trying to keep our boister- ous spirits a little subdued, especially after eleven o ' clock. We took advantage of the later deadline — to study, of course. The first week everyone was busy show- ing the Freshmen over the campus, and orientating them to that favorite form of entertainment — the coke and nab party. We are proud of the Green-and ' White spirit our sister class has shown. In November we began preparing for the annual Circus. Betsy Wilson was elected chairman and also representative for the Court. Our own inimitable Mar ' garet Ann cut a dashing figure in her swallowtail coat as she presided as Ring ' master. For the second time America was settled, and if any of the Juniors are asked, they will say that the second time was the better. As usual, we won second place. In the Song contest the Juniors took first place with their harmonious lyrics. We owe the highest praise to the co ' writers, Virginia Spencer and Ann Bur ' nette, two cf our talented members. Upon returning from the Christmas holidays we were faced with the pleasant prospect of choosing the most beautiful girls for May Court. C. K. Jones, Issac Velasque?, Claudia Anderson, Charlotte Williams, and Romine Mahood were se ' lected to reign as attendants in this annual Longwood fete. The month of February brought us the excitement of our class dance. The Virginians furnished the music, and several gold ' diggers from the Klondike furnished the entertainment. We were the first to have a floor show in ' stead of the traditional figure and also the first to use the cabaret style. The folio W ' ing week ' end we presented our Sing, which was extremely successful. The Junior class put its best foot forward in the Orchesis recital which was held in March. Betty Mac, Higgs, Jeanne, Deenie, Mary Jane, Edith, and Edna represented us in the lovely interpretation of The Plum Tree. This past year we welcomed into our class many wonderful transfers, both girls and boys. We especially enjoyed those boys who took part in the productions. They added the bit of spice that had been missing. We are very proud of our class ' mates who were chosen for various honors dur ' ing 1949. In the summer Romine was selected as a Princess in the Southside Peanut Festival. Harriet Butter worth was the sponsor for Battallion B at V.P.I., and Charlotte K. Jones was, and still is, the star vocaHst on the radio program, Cam ' pus Kids. Our leaders through the school year were Betsy Gravely, president; Betsy Wilson, vice ' president; Ruth Gills, secre ' tary; and Patty Walker, treasurer. They did a grand job and with the help of the entire class, they kept Green and White on top. We ended the year by bidding a fond adieu to the Senior Class and by giving them a farewell party, which we hope they will never forget.

No, that couldn ' t be we! But it was. At last we were all ' ' sophomore even if we weren ' t stately all the time. We had awaited a whole year to take over the halls of Annex, Student, and Post Office — and in September we moved in, with bag, baggage, and even an occasional easy chair. Soon we had straightened the shades, put up curtains, stuck pictures in every available spot. Even if we didn ' t have a carpet to throw upon the floor — well, one can be just as proud of a twO ' foot bathmat. Anyway, the spirit of Red and White was everywhere, and it was there to stay. We won ' t forget easily what a proud feeling we had greeting the Freshman, showing them around, and explaining even the little things that go to make up life here at L. C And, of course, one of the little things we had to express in action was that ' ' terrible tradition — RatDay. The day dawned bright, at 6 a.m., for us, and cheerless, at 4 a.m., for them, and then Maria Jackson and her court of torturers went into action. When it was all over, the Freshmen returned to bed for recuperation — while we — well, most of us needed a good throat swabbing in the infirmary and a week ' s rest. From there on, it was just one thing after another. Work began on Circus, and Fran Franklin and BB Wilson heard so much about Hallowe ' en that pretty soon they began to feel and look like a couple of ghosts. But we were proud of our per- formance on the big night. We did so well that we even provoked a little tear from our representative, Jackie Jardine. In sports, we fought with the best Red and White spirit. Our hockey team, led by Nancy Walker, walked off with honors in class games and against Blackstone. In the Christmas Water Pageant, Jean Riden- our, Nancy Walker, Marian Beckner, Liz Lesslie, Emma Harris, and Ann Harding made us feel very proud cf their beautiful performances. We did well in basketball, too, and, with Bootie Pcarch as captain, started the season by winning against Blackstone. We shcne, also, in the song contest, when we rah-rahhed into second place — and all on account of some extra- curricular work on the part of Hawkins. Christmas came, and with it the party for our Seniors. Can we ever forget Midge and the dozens of pails heating Russian Tea? Fran, Pritch, and Mary Mocre de- veloping muscles from inking so many favors? Above all, Mary Brame as a very large and waddling Santa? We must have returned from Christmas packed with dynamite, because that ' s what our Production was. We gave it all we had. Maria Jackson was the source of our inspiration, and with Nancy Jeffries to help her, it just had to be a terrific show. We called it Women Are Here To Stay, and, if you take it from us, that was an understatement. Exams — hmmm — they were terrific too! Now that we ' ve passed lightly over that topic, though some tossed them off too lightly and landed with a thump, the next big question was that of May Day beauties. Anne Motley, Jean Ridenour, and Frances Turner were chosen to repre- sent the beauty of our class. Jean Ridenour, too, had charge of our Sing — a gay comedy dealing with birth- days, but not the conventional kind. Apart from the various events, who won ' t look back with nostalgia on the other day-to-day happenings. Ready and the rest of our sister class and our seren- ades and parties; the informal gatherings for a pep-rally on our halls; the seven- league slippers of our ever-present and all- knowing house president; the cries of hot-dog and grilled cheese at the stroke of 10; the buns and donuts on Sundays extolled by a hard-driven com- mission and a graying Shirley; and finally those people down the hall who made so much noise at THIS hour. Our affection and gratitude go to our advisers: to Dr. Schlegel for his smile and encouragement, and to Mrs. Slayton for her interest and understanding. And always will linger a fond memory cf the halls where we were really Sophomores — not always wise, not always stately, but always full of the zest for life and fun.

WILKINS ROBERTA WILSON LELIA WINGFIELD AMANDA WRIGHT NANCY CARROLL WOOLDRIDGE FRESHMAN CLASS HISTORY a fN September 19, 1949, the majority of the one hundred and fifty ' four Freshmen staggered into the Rotunda beneath the weight of bags, boxes, and various incidentals. Multitudes of un familiar faces stared unblinkingly at each of us, but they wore such friendly smiles that we settled ourselves, immediately beginning to enter into our new college life. At first we spent most of our time learning our way around the campus and thumbing through the handbook, but soon felt at home. It wasn ' t long before things were really interesting. October 18 was Rat Day, and since we were the ' ' Rats, we found ourselves stay ' ing up most of the night before preparing for the ordeal. The next day, the longest day of the year, was spent falling on our knees praising ' 52 and obeying various other commands dictated by the deadly Sophomores. Finally, night spread its wings over the tired Freshmen, and noth ' ing was left of the Rat Day, 1949, except the anticipation of Big Rat Court the next night. The Rat Day ceremonies were closed officially by Lou Jamison, ringing the bell fifty ' two times in honor of the Sophomores. Our first major operation was Circus, October 29, with Roberta Browning as the chairman. Our theme was Hit the Deck, a card fantasy. Many Freshmen fell into place with the most original theme ever! After much shuffling around we finally got through our first performance before the entire student body. Betsy Hankins represented our class on Circus Court. By November we knew each other well enough to decide whom we wanted to be our class leaders. We chose as our class officers: Betty Abbitt, president; Sarah McElroy, vice-president; Jean Kreien- baum, secretary; and Dot Boswick, trea ' surer. We chose as our Student Govern ' ment representatives: Jesse Amory and Polly Brothers ; and as our Student Stand ' ards representatives : Mary Elizabeth Bur ' ton and Helen Tanner. Twelve members of the class were elected to serve on Freshman Commission, and they were soon installed and began to sell candy on the halls. We were fortunate enough to get Mr. French, better known to all of us as Charlie Hop, as our adviser. With such an adviser backing us we knew we would be a success.

It is the spirit, the friendliness, and the love of all of these. This year we have worked together to make Longwood even a better college. Left to right: Thompson, Huegel, Hatcher, Orange, B. Scott, Parks Men ' s Student Government i HE year 1949-1950 saw much activity on the part of the Men ' s Student Government, which was composed of approximately thirty men. When the semester began the Men ' s Student Govern- ment was formally inaugurated and worked co-operatively with the Women ' s Student Government, Student Standards Com- mittee, Athletic Association, and Dean ' s Council. Much interest was shown when the Men ' s Athletic Association was formed and a men ' s basketball team, known as the Pioneers, became an innovation at Long wood. The team played various school teams in the vicinity of the college. When Longwood held its annual circus. the men not only participated in the entertainment and concessions, but also joined the student body in the colorful parade which moved from the college through the city. Though the Men ' s Student Govern- ment has increased considerably in num- ber from last year, further success is expected as more and more men students enroll. It is desired that the Organisation should move forward to better intergration within the school. Individual student handbooks are now being anticipated, which will enable the student to grasp quickly the esprit de corps so character- istic of Longwood College. 72 Seated, left to right: Dodson, Phillips, Wright, Agnew, Hylton, Dr. Moss, Bragg, Hughes, Duncan, Harris, N. L. Mattox Standing, left to right: Mottley, M. A. Wilson, Mahood, McRee, Brothers, Amory Women s Student Government Association i HE Women ' s Student Govern- ment Association, directed by a council elected from and by the student body, is composed of every student in the college. The Student Council, as a representative part of the student body, has tried to ful ' fill the purposes for which the Student Government Association was created: to unite the students in better living and to direct them in developing responsibility and self-reliance. We, the Council, sin- cerely hope that this organizjation has achieved its purpose. At a meeting of the student body shortly after the beginning of school, Dr. Moss was re-elected as our faculty adviser. It was under his guidance and because of his interest that we functioned so success- fully throughout the year. Our officers were Elizabeth Bragg, president; Martha B. Hylton, vice-president; Helen Agnew, secretary; and Judy Hughes, treasurer. Our activities this year were many and varied. Orientation class es for Freshmen were held in September, under the capable leadership of ' ' B Hylton. Early in Novem- ber came the highly successful Student Government square dance; and the Christ- mas season found us busy making favors for our annual Christmas banquet. At the end of the school year, the Council was represented at the annual convention of the Southern Intercollegiate Association of Student Government in Montevala, Alabama. We, the Council, should like to take this opportunity to thank Dr. Lancaster, Miss Cleaves, and the entire student body for their constant cooperation and assist- ance throughout this year. Student Standards As lS we entered our first fall term with our newly acquired name, Longwood College, the Student Stand- ards Committee faced many new prob- lems pertaining to student activities. We were ever conscious of our purpose ' ' to bring about a spir it of cooperation in the solution cf student problems and to foster high standards of action and scholarship; to act as a clearing house for problems be- tween the student body and the faculty or administration. Among the things we accomplished this year was the actual installation of our long-wished-for fluorescent lights in the library. The point system which regulates extra-curricular activities underwent a complete change with careful study of the group as a whole and the wise and under- standing guidance of our sponsors: Miss Bedford, Miss Burger, Miss Cleaves, Dr. Sutherland, Miss Stubbs, Dr. Swertfeger, and other faculty members who met and planned with us. Since Longwood College has become a coeducational institution, one of the most important facts of the year for the com- mittee was the realization that the men as well as the women were entitled to repre- sentation on Student Standards. At our February meeting, by unanimous vote, men gained representation with two newly elected members. Margaret Beasley served as chairman of the committee; Louise Redd, secretary; Jane Lyons, chairman of the calendar; and Margaret Thomas, chairman of the point system. First row: Duncan, J.

In December we were busy ' ' hanging the green in the Rotunda. It did our hearts good to help add to the Christmas spirit at Longwood College. We were formally installed by the Sophomore Com mission in January. In February we spon- sored a party for our Big Sisters. We wanted to show them just how much we appreciated all the help they gave us when we entered Longwood and throughout the year. Throughout the year we assisted with the nightly prayers sponsored by the Y . Another of our activities of the year was the selling of food on the hall. The money we made from this was contributed to the various organizations such as the Jarman Organ Fund, White Christmas, and others. When we think of the good that we did, the trip up and down the hill carrying the food was not half so bad as we thought. We are looking forward to greeting the new freshmen next year and helping them to settle down for the year at Longwood. Y. W. C. A. OEPTEMBER and the opening day of school! Of course this means ' ' Y girls dressed in white, friendly and cheer ' ful, ready to show the new students their rooms and to help them become accus- tomed to their new home. After the first few days of Freshman Club meetings and Coke ' n ' Nab parties, the new students were introduced to the members cf the faculty and administration. In October, the Y Cabinet held its annual Fall Retreat at Longwood and made plans for the coming year. The regular weekly study-group program was one of the projects planned and ac- complished. Our Y Lines column in the Rotunda helped keep the Y ' s activities before the student body. The ' impressive formal installation of the Freshmen and new students into the Y was held in October. The installation began with a service in the Methodist Church. Then the girls, dressed in white and carrying white candles, promenaded through the Colonnade and into the Rotunda, where they sang our Y songs and our Y ' ' motto repeated. Also in October we held the World Student Service Fund drive and reached our goal, the collection of $500. As always, our Christmas supper of spaghetti was held in the Y lounge in December. All, both the members ot the Cabinet and the advisers, had a pleasant evening. The lovely Christmas pageant was held in the Methodist Church. This was a truly inspiring event. We carried 76 t row: Kemp, Spencer and row : Wood, Duncan, F. Turner Y. W. C. A. out the Christmas spirit with the tradi- tional ' ' hanging of the green around the Rotunda. Then came the White Christ ' mas ; each organization on campus con- tributed to a fund for charity. In Febru- ary, we had the biggest event of the year, Religious Emphasis Week. Our speaker was Mr. Byron Wilkinson of Richmond, who led inspiring bull sessions and open discussions, held personal conferences, and spoke to us in chapel .on Maximum Christianity. Throughout the year the Y was re- sponsible for prayers, held every night after dinner. This always is a quiet in- spirational period for us. The Y also helped the needy, working with welfare organizations of the town. Our capable and efficient president this year was Dolores Duncan, a helpful and a discreet guide. With this leadership we were able to complete a successful year and carry on the fine tradition of our Y . Seated; Wright, Ferratt, F. Turner, V. Spencer, Duncan, Wood, Kemp, Farrier, M.

Pollard House Council vJUICK, shut ' up and turn the lights out. Here comes Jackie Wright on her nightly vigil! Thus spoke the girls gathered for a bull session after hours. Although lights were supposed to be out at eleven, Miss Cress and Jackie often found it necessary to break up those noisy crowds, who always excused them ' selves by feigning such things as seeing bats or strange people, or hearing mys ' terious screaming on the halls. Truly the stories some girls can think up to try to keep out of getting a call down! All in all, the year was fun. Even the hall presidents found it hard to keep their poker faces when they were severely reprimanding some of the habitual prank ' sters. With the kind and most faithful help of our house mothers — Mrs. Slayton, Mrs. Hamner, and Mrs. Eastham — and the college hostesses — Mrs. Tabb, Mrs. Green, Mrs. Holladay, and Mrs Howard — the House Council had a most successful year. Jackie Wright was president; Helen Kaknis, vice ' president; Jackie Moody, secretary, and Mary Helen Cook, treasurer. The House Presidents were Jo Anna Phipps, Bobbie Pollard, Maria Jackson, and Betty Tyler. 78 The Colonnade Wf HERE are those girls hid- ing who say, ' ' Why can ' t the COLON ' NADE come out more often? We, the staff, would like to express heart-felt thanks for their appreciation cf our efforts. It took great teamwork to get three issues to the publishers on time (maybe one day late) because this year our poor overworked editor-in-chief, Anne Lang- bein, has had to initiate several new writers into the mysteries of working on the school magazine. The clever novices included Edith Duma, managing editor; Jackie Jardine, essay editor; Sara Creger, book review editor; Peggy Peery, photographer; and Lila Easley, circulation manager. Our mistakes were smoothed over by the com- bined efforts of the more experienced staff members. With Polly Nasser, business manager; Barbara Andrews, poetry editor; Janice Slavin, editor of movie reviews; Helen Arington, art editor; and Katie Cobb, editor cf the humor column, Right From the Cobb, we couldn ' t fail. In November, our short story editor was proud and happy to award first and third place honors to a sophomore trans- fer, Nancy Jeffries, and second prize to Charlotte King Jones for their prize- winning stories. Here, we should like to express cur appreciation to the three faculty judges cf the contest : Mr. Thomas A. Malloy, Miss Mary Nichols, and Mr. James M. Grainger, and to our beard of student judges who so generously gave us their time and services. An extra-large round of applause is due our advisers: Mrs. Thomas A. Malloy, Mr. James M. Grainger, Miss Lucille Jennings, and Mr. Robert Vickers. First row: B.

So runs a song (apologies are due Mr. Cole Porter) which just about sums up the attitude of that dedicated group of Longwood students known as the Rotunda staff. Though they gnash their teeth and bewail their lot as the editor cracks the whip over their heads, not one can deny that printer ' s ink courses wildly through their veins from Wednesday to Wednes ' day. ' ' Deadlines, headlines, by-lines, cut ' lines, etc. , the paraphrase continues. Yes, all sorts of ' ' lines keep the Rotunda staff in a harried state. Deadlines are the particular bane of every staff member ' s existence. The circle of deadlines begins on Wednesday night when Mary Jo, Crowgey, Lynch, and Wilson hand out assignments coupled with pleadings to get copy in on time. During the weekend Manager Mary Leigh and Little of the Desk join in the job of gentle browbeating and story sleuthing until the box in the publications office holds a gratifying pile of copy. Helen and her ad crew are busy in the meantime cajoling inches out of business concerns and preparing ad copy for their deadline at the printer ' s. The first of each week sees a mad struggle to harvest late stories and features, late breaking news, and on Tuesday night the ranks of the faithful meet in the office for a session of make ' Up, head writing and proof reading prior to hustling the baby off to bed. Wednesday Grace and Millie and the circulation team have a delivery deadline to meet. Meanwhile Jan has been Slavin to keep the paper out of bankruptcy. Patient creditors, a benevolent College administration, and her talent for juggling the books have lightened the forbidding task. Dr. Schlegel this year assumed the job of dispensing advice and help to the Rotunda staff. It was our pleasure to run to Dr. Schlegel with knotty problems of policy, journaUstic practice, and grammar. Here the staff found a staunch friend who guided us safely through occasional skirmishes with segments of our public. We also delight in plaguing busy Dean Savage and the First row : Slavin, Dr. Schlegel Second row: J. Smith, Eagle, Meredith Rotunda (continued) rest cf the faculty committee with re ' quests for advice. Nor can we forget the printers, to whom we owe much gratitude in addition to our dollar debts. Every year the Rotunda staff undergoes a change in personnel, and each year sees innovations that we hope are forward steps toward a better newspaper. This year two new columnists added to the sheet ' s readership. Turner ' s ' Tedro (for whom the reader will please assume a Mexican accent ) contributed a whimsi ' cal note, and Smallwood ' s Scanning the Field created its share cf comment each week. The front page was dressed up with the addition of Arington ' s new name plate. On rare occasions when staif mem ' bers found an extra moment, they dabbled in a new activity — College publicity work. Looking back now, we find that we can actually laugh at problems which once seemed earth ' shaking. We ' ve enjoyed get ' ting on the inside track as College history was made, and we ' ve done our best to reflect fairly student news and opinions, keeping our professional ethics in mind. Now it can be told that it has been fun, and invaluable experience besides. Once more we pick up the threads cf Mr. Porter ' s melody, Yes, yes, on with the press! Seated.

September, ' 49, found us getting things lined up for indi ' vidual and group pictures — with Joyce and Mr. Mac plotting to get the photog rapher here at exactly the right time. The weather was more agreeable to us this year, with hardly any of the usual Farm ' ville rain while the group pictures were being taken. Late in the fall, Joyce and Helen represented the staff at the Virginia Inter ' collegiate Press Association Conference at Fredericksburg, Virginia. They brought back the best news of the year: the 1949 Virginian had placed first in its class. We were excited and happy over the results. but all the more determined to live up to our record with this year ' s book. There followed many plans for our book ' s development. The color was finally decided on, and Miss Bedford and the art staff went to work. A nice job they did, too. As soon as the dedication was decided upon, the whole staff began canvassing every hall in the school for subscriptions. Helen and Romine were certainly kept busy handling the money. What a job! We even set a deadline for taking in sub ' scriptions, in order to get them in time to begin further preparations on the book. That was the Scotchman ' s suggestion, as you have probably guessed. Every spare moment was spent in numbering, trimming, and mounting pictures. How could there be so many students? Virginian (continued) Speaking of pictures, Joyce and Georgia tripped around school for days getting snapshots of life at Longwood College. Our little camera, gotten last year, has stood us in good stead. The Scotchman also took some good snaps. If you haven ' t seen them, just ask the freshmen. The biggest jobs stared us in the face right after our return from Christmas holidays — getting articles written and correctly typed, getting the printer ' s dummy drawn, and getting all the mate ' rial in the Virginian mailed to the printer. We fell to with a will — writing, revising, and typing. Miss Bedford ' s talented hand and mind helped us in art work. We could not have managed those articles if it had not been for our capable literary adviser. Miss Nancy Foster. Since thanks are in the way, one of the first people we think about is our ' ' Scotchman, Mr. Mac. Not only is he professor of that terrible sub- ject labeled chemistry, but he also knows just about all there is to know about producing a year book. We can ' t thank him enough for his kindly assistance and advice. Near the end of May, we were im- patiently awaiting the arrival of the book. It came — and were we proud of it! After all the work and worry was over, we realised what a pleasure it had been to produce the 1950 Virginian.

The Jean Circle had for its capable ad ' visers: Miss Burger, Miss Stubbs, and Miss Cress. The officers for this year were Jackie Wright, president; Dolores Duncan, vice ' president; Norma Roady, secretary; and Jackie Eagle, treasurer. The other members when school opened were June Banks, Elizabeth Bragg, Martha Hylton, Helen Kaknis, Ray Phillips, and Patsy Ritter. During the year we tapped Mar ' garet Beasley, Page Burnette, Betsy Gravely, Helen Agnew, Hilda Edwards, Judy Hughes, Anne Langbein, and Sue Walker. In October, The Four Seasons was the theme of our annual circus. The crowd was delighted when Margaret Ann Shel ' ton made her appearance as ringmaster. Norma Roady was Queen, and her attend ' ants were Betsy Wilson, Jackie Jardine, and Betsy Hankins, each representing her class. We took great pride in having the annual convention on our campus. Dele ' gates from Columbia College, Queens College, and the University of South Carolina joined us in an inspiring and worth ' while program. This year saw the beginning of a new program sponsored by the local circle, which provided weekend entertainment for Long wood students. To foster high ideals, to promote cO ' ordination of various college activities, and to preserve the ideals and traditions of the college — these are the purposes of Alpha Kappa Gamma. Kdppa Delta Pi The national honorary society for Juniors and Seniors excelling in the field of education is known as Kappa Delta Pi. Kappa Delta Pi encourages high pro ' fessional, intellectual, and personal stand ' ards, emphasizing the duty cf the educator toward mankind. The Beta Epsilon Chap ' ter was founded on our campus in 1928, replacing Pi Kappa Omega, which was founded in 1918. The programs of this year were based on the Fine Arts. Dr. John W. Molnar, head of the Department of Music, demonstrated with recorded music the nationalistic trend of music and the varied characteris ' tics of such music. Other excellent pro ' grams were presented by Mr. Robert C. Vickers, speaking on art, and Mrs. Lan drum, speaking on choreographic music. The annual Christmas banquet, held in the Tea Room, was a gala occasion. Soon after examinations plans were under way for the spring reception in honor of the Freshmen and Sophomores who ranked in the upper quartile of their classes. This year Beta Epsilon Chapter con ' tributed to the Library the two most recent books of the Kappa Delta Pi Lec ' ture Series. This is a list cf outstanding educational books recommended by Na ' tional headquarters. Dr. Ethel Sutherland as our adviser has been our constant champion, inspiring us to even greater achievement. The officers of the year, proving themselves to be very capable, were Judy Hughes, president; June Banks, vicC ' president; Ruth Walker, secretary; Cornelia Marstcn, treasurer; and Barbara Andrews, historian.

House Beorc Eh Thorn BeORC Eh Thorn, the English honor society on the campus, derives its name from the three old English rune letters, Beorc Eh Thorn, which symboHze to its members the study of literature, the inspiration of creative writing, and the discipline necessary to achieve literary expression. The first activity of the organization this year was that of revising the consti- tution of Beorc Eh Thorn to meet new needs felt by both students and faculty advisers. For the topic of study during the ses ' sion, the members chose Contemporary Southern Writers. The main emphasis was placed upon the works of Scott Hart, a former resident of Farmville. A number of books were selected for reading and dis ' cussion by the society during the various meetings. This year, Beorc Eh Thorn welcomed seven new members : Majorie Agee, John Cook, Edith Duma, Page Joyner, Ann Langbein, Charlotte Williams, and Billie Jane Barber. June Banks served as presi ' dent; Lois Stevens, vice-president; Page Burnette, corresponding secretary. Dot Dodd, recording secretary; Beverley Smethie, treasurer. Pi Gammd Mu X I Gamma Mu is the social science honor society on our campus. This organization invites as its members students who have shown outstanding interest and ability in the field of social science and who rank high in scholarship. Among those we were happy to welcome as our new mem- bers are the following: Mildred Carter, Edith Duvall, Frances Everett, Rena Mae Hayes, Calvin Hatcher, and Anne Mc- Mullan. We chose as our general theme this year one in which we were all tremendously interested — Understanding Current Events. Also we chose a secondary goal, that of getting better acquainted with our organization, foundation purposes, and ideals. We owe a debt of thanks to our new sponsor, Dr. Marvin W. Schlegel. He has shown great interest in Pi Gamma Mu and has been an inspiration to all its members. Bringing our school year to an exciting and pleasant close was the annual Spring Banquet, which was held late in the spring. The officers for this year were as fol- lows: Denise Love, president; Barbara Grizzard, vice-president; Barbara An ' drews, secretary; and Helen Kaknis, trea- surer. First row: Kibler, S.

This year the J. L. Jarman Chapter conducted a study of experiences prior to student teaching, the actual stU ' dent teaching, and an evaluation after student teaching. Members of our chapter also contri ' buted to a program of celebration on John Dewey ' s birthday, October 20. In Novem ber, in honor of National Education Week, the chapter sponsored a radio program on the Voice cf Longwood Hour. This program was in the form of a discussion of current school problems by future teachers and present teachers. In February we initiated new members from each department of the College. In order to become a member of Future Teachers of America, a student must be recommended by the head of her depart ' ment and sanctioned by the chapter mem ' bers. The officers of the J. . L. Jarman Chapter this year were the following: Connie Marston, president; Ellen Moyer, vicc ' president; Jean Hogge, secretary; Annie Swann, treasurer; Juanita Weeks, Hbrarian, and Dr. J. P. Wynne, our ever ' faithful adviser. Association of Childhood Education L HE Association of Childhood Education was formed in 1930 by the merging of two organizations, the Inter ' national Kindergarten Union and the National Council of Primary Education. The purposes of the Association are to work for the education and welhbeing of children; to bring into active cooperation all groups interested in children in the home, the school, and the community; to promote desirable educational programs and practices in the elementary schools, including the nursery school, the kinder ' garten, the primary, and the intermediate; and to raise the standard of professional training for teachers and leaders in the field. To achieve these purposes the Asso ' ciation is guided by a ■ philosophy of education which is flexible and which changes to meet the needs inherent in a changing society, as related particularly to children and to the preparation of teachers. We initiated twenty new elementary majors this year. Lelia Mae Ferratt, our capable president, led us through a suc- cessful year. Assisting Lelia Mae were Lucy Ann Edmonds, who gave us some excellent programs; Connie Heather, seC ' retary; and Irma Lee Allison, treasurer. Miss Alice Carter was our capable friend and adviser. This Christmas we went to Rice, Virginia, and presented a program for the children. This spring we had a guest speaker, Mr. Paskal, who was quite in- teresting.

Under the leadership and splendid direction of Betty Ferguson, our president, we were guided capably. The other mem ' bers of the executive board were vice ' presidents, Betty House and Mary B. Smith; secretary, Nancy Lee Maddox; treasurer and business manager, Robbie Cromar; Hghting, Jane Grey; make ' up, Carrie Ann CLoughlin; co ' heads of prop ' erties and staging, Carol Bird Stoops and Helen Hardin; acting, Frances Ferguson, and costuming, Lucy Jane Morton. Even though we have not been able to have any large plays this year, our appren ' tices have given several apprentice plays. and these have been a great help to them. They had fun making up one another and practicing many of the principles they had learned in their meetings. One of our girls, Ann Nock, assisted the Farmville High School Club a great deal with their plays and courses in dramatics. The costume rental service has been utili2;ed by high schools throughout the state and local religious and civic organi ' nations. The retirement of Miss Leola Wheeler, our former adviser, was keenly felt by our organization but we have been ably as ' sisted by our faculty advisory board: Mrs. Charles Hall Davis, Mrs. Janice Lemen and Miss Emily Barksdale, who have served us in many ways. Granddaughters Club W E of the Granddaughters Club have had a successful year. Thirty new girls joined our society. We were de lighted to have such a large number of girls who can proudly say, ' ' My mother is an alumna of Longwood College. Our Christmas party was a most en ' joyable occasion. After the initiation of the new girls, we were served refresh ' ments while we told each other who our mothers were and in what year they at ' tended Longwood College. We could never mention a successful year without mentioning our annual juke box dance and cake walk. It was very profitable and enjoyable. The officers this year were as follows: president, Virginia Westbrook; vice ' pres ' ident, Claudia Anderson; secretary, Geop gia bailey; treasurer, Nancy Walker; and reporter, Anne Burnette. To each we say a job well done. Founders Day called us to a labor of love : welcoming the visiting alumnae and other friends and escorting them around the college. We have also entertained seniors in high school who will be future members of the Granddaughters Club. Even though we feel this has been a profitable year, we realize time and again that it would not have been so without the all-time efforts of our adviser, Miss Wall. First row: C. Anderson, N. Walker, Westbrook Second row: Bailey, Burnette Left to right : Barnes, Stoops, Nelson, Shackleford, Nock, F. Turner, West Eastern Shore Club L HE end of another glorious summer on the sandy beaches of the penin ' sula had come. The ten cf us who were returning to Longwood bade farewell to our families and friends. We didn ' t have any new sheep in our flock since the twelve ' year high-school program had come into effect, absorbing what would have been 1949 graduation classes. We — Hetty Rai, Nancy, Janie, Frances T., Frances S., Nock, Sue, Indie, Billie Jane, and Norma — established residences for another year in the different dormitories on campus. Our purposes include the creation of a friendly atmosphere among the girls he re and the encouragement of high school girls to come to Longwood. Our meetings seemed to furnish the only opportunities cf getting together as one big family. In the spring our juke-box dance in the Rec. was a success. Thanks go to every girl in the club for putting it over. Most of the money was put in the bank to go on our scholarship fund; we used some cf it for our farewell party in the spring. Miss Craddock remained our faithful friend and adviser. We all injoyed the strawberry shortcake party she gave us very much. We sang our club song: Over On The Eastern Shore and added a few more verses. Our officers were Anne Nock, presi- dent; Janie Richards, vice-president; Nor- ma Gladding, secretary-treasurer; and Frances Stringfellow, reporter. Northern Neck Club J UST what is the Northern Neck? Surely you must know! It is the dear old spot between the mighty Rappa hanncck and the broad, blue Potomac. Our club is purely a social one, and we admit we have some wonderful times tO ' gether. This year our main objective has been to encourage students from the Northern Neck high schools to choose Longwood College as their institution for higher learning. Those entering our club for the first time were the following : Ann Conley, Jean Mercer, Catherine Ander son, Ann Biddlecomb, Helen Fones, Dolly Blackwell, Lillian Shelton, Nan Bland, Joyce Richardson, and Lorene Wegner. We initiated these new members by giving a hamburger feast at the home of Mr. Graham. A wonderful time we had. Equally stimulating was the Christmas party held at Farnham High School. To top them all, was our successful juke box dance given for the benefit of the high school students visiting our campus that week-end. The schools represented were Lively, White Stone, Wicomico, and Tappahannock. Our club has been quite successful this year, thanks to our ever faithful Charlie Hop. Without him, we would have been at a complete loss. Our club officers this year were presi ' dent, Margaret Forrester; vice-president, Max Acree; secretary and treasurer, Ann Mottley; and reporter, Irma Lee Allison. Of course our adviser was Mr. Raymond HoUiday French, our Charlie Hop. First row: Forrester, Motley, Allison, Mercer, French, Bland, Lamb, Acree, Wilson Second row: Richardson, Blackwell, Conley, Anderson, Shelton, Biddlecomb First row: Beale, Pollard, McRee, Ridenour, Stansbury, Pettit Second row: Nasser, Droste, Westhrook, Lloyd, McLean, Dunford, Caskey, Cromar, Allen, Breeden, Adams, McElroy Richmond Club Oi ' UR first year was a busy one for many of us, but we feel that it has been an eventful and satisfactory one. We Richmonders organized because we wanted to interest other girls in the college, to work closer with our alumnae, and to have fun together. We started out with all the problems of a new club, but we found our fairy godmother in the form of Kathleen G. Cover, our sponsor and guide through the year. We had our tea in Richmond in June, 1949, and felt confident and proud that our first undertaking had been a success. Several girls entering school this fall at ' tended and got a better insight into college life. We started off the year with a picnic to become acquainted with our new girls and to catch up on the summer ' s happen- ings. We had so much fun that we decided to make the picnic an annual affair! The Christmas party at Miller and Rhoads in Richmond was a great pleasure. This tea was in honor of prospective students. They left the tea more enthusiastic than ever about coming to Long wood. They had already caught the spirit and friendli ' ness of the college. As we didn ' t want them to forget us, each of us wrote to a girl on our list. After many postpone- ments, we finally had our juke box dances in March and April. Our officers for the year were Polly Nasser, president; Virginia Westbrook, vice-president; Charlotte Williams, secre- tary-treasurer; and Joyce Adams, reporter. The Farmville Club i HE Farmville Club, formerly- known as the Town Girls ' Club is the organisation on campus for the girl day students of the college. This club was re ' organized last year as an effort to get the day students to feel an integral part of Longwocd. We feel that we have done much to accomplish our purpose this year. The town girls have taken an active part in the different organizations on campus and many hold offices in these. We have a room in Ruffner Hall in which we may study or catch up on the latest bits of news or play a hasty game of bridge. Since our reorganization last year, our main task has been the redecoration cf our room. Now it looks quite homey and we enjoy stopping off there between classes and eating during lunch period. Our mailboxes have proved most helpful to the on-campus students in contacting us. Our Officers for the 1949-1950 session were Rebecca Kelsey, president; Joan Missimer, vice-president; Margaret Jones, treasurer; Ruth Lacy, secretary, Elizabeth Harris, Student Government Representa- tive. Mrs. Eveleyn Coleman is our adviser. Left to right: Lacy, Kelsey, Missimer, M. Jones Lef : to right: M. J. Smith, Hoback, J. Anderson, Girard, M. Jackson The French Circle In September we said ' ' Bonjour to all the new and old French students. Then followed the question, Comment allezi ' vous? Naturally since the reply was, Tres bien, merci, we said, Let ' s get busy with plans for the club. We started to work; we kept at it; and we have chalked up another eventful year for Le Cercle Francais. We crammed our regular monthly meet ' ings with songs, skits, and games. We had fun, but as we played, we learned much of France and the great French culture. Our circus booth was truly something from France. At least, that was the purpose that guided us through our hours spent in preparing it. Leading the schemes were two responsi- ble figures. Miss Helen Draper and Miss Suzanne Girard. Without them our records might have been blank. Their direction and leadership made France come to Le Cercle Francais. The capable officers for the. year were as follows: Helen Hardin, president; Jean Anderson, vice-president; Maria Jackson, treasurer; Mary Jo Smith, reporter; and Suzanne Girard, program chairman. 96 Spanish Club Seated: Westbrook, Agnew Standing: Lacy, Morton, Kaknis o, ' NCE every month all of us who took Spanish got together for the meeting of El Club Espanol. At our first meeting we were introduced to the officers and new members of the club. At subsequent meetings we learned through planned programs of Spanish songs, poems, and skits, and, with the very capable aid of our Puerto Rican stU ' dents, to know each other better and to carry out our motto: La2;os mas estrechos entre las Americas. ' ' Olga Rodriguez and Patria Perez, to whom we are very grate- ful, have been our program chairmen this year. Besides our monthly meetings there were also the circus in the tall; the Christmas fiesta; Pan American Day, celebrated with an assembly program and a radio broad- cast; and, the weather being fair, a picnic in true Spanish style as the last of our programs for the year.

HE Home Eccnomics Club in the fall, at its organizational meeting, voted to become aifiliated with the college club section of the American Home Eco- nomics Association. This affiliation pro- vides us with the opportunity to know our professional organization. Our officers were the following : Nancy Short, president; Evelyn Farrier, vice- president; Doris Conner, secretary; Jane Seward, treasurer; Margaret Forrester, social chairman; Sonia Kile and Jan Van Horn, publicity chairmen. Our adviser was Miss Fern Staggs, Head of the Home Economics Department. In October we gave a tea in the Home Management House to welcome Miss Staggs and our new members. We tried to make our meetings infor- mative and interesting for all. Discussions, parties, and a talk by an interior decorator were memorable events in our programs for the year. Knowing how Long wood students like to dance and play bridge, we sponsored two informal dances and an afternoon card party in the Rec. ' ' ' For a real treat, you should have eaten some of the fruit cakes and plum puddings we made before Christmas. They were deli- cious. And think of the valuable experi- ence and the fun we had making and sell- ing them! The climax of our year together was a banquet held in the tea room in recog- nition of our seniors. At this dinner, they became members of the A. H. E. A. This ceremony was conducted by Miss Frances Urban, field secretary of Home Economics. The Commercial Club JL HE Commercial Club, organ ' ized in 1939, has for its purposes providing students in the Business Education De- partment with a more specific knowledge of the various opportunities in the busi- ness field and furthering their interests in this respect. It also has social gatherings for the promotion of fellowship and good will among the members. Membership in the club consists of two classes, active and honorary. Active members are those students who major in Business Education. Honorary members are professors in the Business Education Department. They constitute an Advisory Board from which a sponsor is elected annually. At the first meeting of the year the various classes presented skits. In Octo- ber, we had a lovely souvenir booth in AKG circus. We pitched pennies for hand- painted ash trays and balloons. In Febru- ary we gave a banquet. The guest speaker was Mr. A. L. Walker, State Supervisor of Business Education in Virginia. Also in February the club sponsored a juke-box dance, which was quite successful. In March the club presented a radio program which gave information about the activi- ties of the club as well as information about the Department of Business Educa- tion. Another highlight of the year was the annual picnic at Longwood with the Freshmen in charge of the program. The officers of the organization are Ruth Walker, president; Connie Marston, vice-president; Max Acree, secretary; Pat Walker, treasurer; Janice Slavin, reporter. First row: Acree, R. Walker, P.

Molnar, whom we love and respect more with each rehearsal. Also many new girls added their voices to our group. During the fall we prepared for our busy month, December. In combination with the Hampden ' Sydney Glee Club we sang Christmas concerts at Grace Covenant Church in Richmcnd, at Hampden-Sydney College, and here at Long wood. On Founder ' s Day weekend in March we gave our spring concert, which was at ' tended and well received by many Long- wood alumnae here for the weekend. The following night this concert was repeated at Hampden-Sydney. Early in April the Harvard University Orchestra was pre- sented here as one of the college ' s lyceum programs. We joined them for one group of numbers, and it was indeed a thrilling experience to sing with this well-trained organization. May Day at Longwood has always typified a spirit of cooperation among the entire student body, and the college choir added its songs to this year ' s colorful presentation of The History of the Walt?. Several other out-of-town concerts were in this busy season, and it was with sad- ness in our hearts that we sa.ng together for the year ' s last public performance at graduation exercises. Our officers for the year were Winifred Beard, president; Puckett Asher, vice- president; Virginia Spencer, secretary; and Jean Carter Watkins, treasurer. Miss Virgilia Bugg again was our adviser. Madrigal Singers LoNGWOOD ' S Madrigal Singers were off to a busy start soon after the College opened last fall, preparing to present the first program of The Long ' wood Hour. This group, composed of fourteen voices selected from the college Choir, is one of the most active of the College ' s musical groups. After our initial radio performance, we, the Madrigal Singers, began to work on our Christmas repe ' toire. In addition to providing. the music for the College ' s Christmas banquet, we made several appe arances in town. One group of numbers on the Christmas con ' certs, given in Richmond, Hampden ' Sydney, and here in the college, was pre ' sented by the Madrigal Singers. Soon after Christmas we introduced the custom, which is now traditional, of singing the blessing for the evening meal in the dining hall. Preparation for the spring concerts pre ' sented both at Longwood, for the alumni, and at Hampden ' Sydney was the chief business of our group during the early part of the second semester. In April, we again appeared on The Longwood Hour. We joined with the committee m plan ' ning the music for several of the birthday dinners, held once each month this year. We were particularly welhreceived at the February dinner when we sang songs in keeping with the Valentine theme of the evening. Singing at the bacculearate on Sunday evening culminated one of the most suc ' cessful years for us, the Madrigal Singers. Left to right : Standing: Jones, Adams, J.

This motto of the Inter- Varsity Christian Fellowship was the one which our chapter stressed this year. The Long- wood Christian Fellowship is just one of many groups on college and university campuses all over the United States. These associations are composed of Christians of all denominations who seek to serve Christ on their campuses. We met weekly on Thursday after- noons for group Bible study. Our studies in the Book of Hebrews gave us more knowledge of God ' s word and practical applications for our lives. There were prayer times during these meetings, and small groups met for prayer at other times during the week. We received inspiration and grew as Christians by attending conferences dur- ing the year. One of our members was able to spend a month at Campus-in-the- Woods in Ontario, Canada. In October there were three representing our group at a week-end leadership conference at Montreat, North Carolina. A large num- ber were able to attend the Virginia- North Carolina conference held at Roslyn in February. In the fall, we were privileged to have Mrs. Howes, a returned missionary of the China Inland Mission, who gave us a wider vision of Christian work in China. The visits of Anne Childs and Hugh Brown, our regional staff workers, were a means of encouragement to us. Their suggestions, prayers, and advice gave us much needed strength. We were glad to have Miss Dorothy Daniel serve very capably as our adviser. Westminster Fellowship Ti HIS year the work of the Westminster Fellowship began with a reception given to welcome the new stu- dents of both colleges. Although we were without a minister in the fall, Mrs. Frank Crawford and Dr. Mclllwaine Thompson of the College Church, Hampden ' Sydney, guided us. Under the leadership of Martha Alice Wilson, president; Charles Talley, vice-president; Mary Crawford, secretary, and Frances Thomas, treasurer, this year has been one of inspiration, fun, and fellowship. On Sunday evenings we have had a variety of interesting programs, including a talk by Dr. Lancaster at a supper meeting at Hampden-Sydney. Mrs. Edwin Lanc- aster spoke at one meeting about India and the young people there. Charles Grissett edited the West-Fell ?i,ews, a bi-weekly news and editorial sheet, during the year. The January issue of Varsity Views, Synod ' s Westminster Fellowship paper, was also published by our group under his leadership. Among our social activities have been a picnic at Longwood, a Juke Box Dance, and our monthly supper meetings, held alternately at Hampden-Sydney and in the Farmville Presbyterian Church, the first Sunday of each month. The arrival of our new minister, the Rev. James R. Kennedy, in January got our second semester off to a good start. Also the seminary team from Richmond inspired us greatly. With the help of our advisers, we feel that throughout the year we have grown spiritually as well as numerically. Seated on floor: J. Wilson, Talley, Buchannan Second row; Crawford, M.

At our pre ' school retreat, big plans were made for welccming the new freshmen; we had a Paul Bunyan and open-house for them. Important events on the fall calendar were visits from Dr. Harvey Brown, Sonia Gradka, a German war refugee, the various student conferences, a big square dance and a retreat at the cabin at Longwood. The frosh organised a Freshmen Club and sponsored many interesting activities. During the winter months we presented a program at Keysville and invited the Cumberland youth group to one of our meetings. There was much excitement in decorating the Center for the holidays and preparing for the various holiday acti ' vities. Finally, there was the National Student Conference at Urbania in Decem- ber, at which our group was represented. In February we presented a series of talks on Love, Courtship, and Marriage by Mr. and Mrs. Myers. Plans were made for our conference held in April. The theme was Your Personal Power. We were proud of the success of our confer- ence. The spring months were filled with the election of officers, our spring retreat at Longwood, and a picnic and swimming party. The Wesley Foundation has meant much to all of its members this year. We are looking forward to next year with even bigger and better plans for Wesley Foun- dation. Baptist Student Union Wi HAT a rich and full year this has been for us girls in the Baptist Student Union! Our Pre-School Retreat at Longwocd was a real success. While there we came to know and admire Lucile Peak, better known as Peakie, our StU ' dent Secretary. Other fall events will live in our mem- ories: Freshman Reception, Open House, our State Convention in Norfolk, Voca- tional Emphasis Week and William Hall Preston with his favorite expression, Go to the top! , our Thanksgiving Sunrise Service, and the week before exams — ' ' Squirrel and Nut Week. The first day of our second semester the Council had a buffet supper at the Center. Mr. Ralph Winders, our State Student Secretary, was the speaker that afternoon. He is always a welcome guest on our campus. Having Mrs. Irene Ma, a native of China, speak to us on the book Carved on our Hearts was a unique experience. Launch Out Into the Deep was the theme for our Spiritual Emphasis Week- end. Mrs. Dawson, cf Washington, D.C., was our guest speaker and proved to be a real inspiration to us. Our last big event was the State Spring Retreat at Char- lottesville. Words cannot express our deep appre- ciation for the loyal support of our friend and pastor, Mr. Bruner. Our president this year has been Judy Hughes. Other officers were Max Acree, Dolores Duncan, Ann Moody, Shirley Roberts, Dee Hoover, Jackie Wright, Jane Seward, Annie Swann, Marilyn Wheeler, Dot Doutt, Eleanor Weddle, Betty Borkey, Connie Marston, and Mar- garet Thomas.

How- ever, following an election held early in October, Carrie Ann O ' Loughlin, who had been previously secretary ' treasurer, ably led our group through ' out the year. At a later election Kim Coleman was chosen to act as treasurer for the group. The club got off to a fine start socially with a dinner held at the home of Father McCarthy in Crewe. The Newman Clubs of Hampden ' Sydney, Longwood, and Blackstone College turned out for the fete, which proved a great success. Under the guidance of Father McCarthy our meet- ings each Monday afternoon were an invaluable experience; there we discussed the problems and experiences confronting college students. During the year. Father McCarthy invited us and our friends to visit him in Crewe, where we spent sev- eral delightful Sunday afternoons notable for delicious food, and fun, and inspira- tion. We concluded a successful year filled with work and happiness by a dinner in Crewe with the Blackstone Club. As the year closes, we eagerly turn our eyes to the near future when we shall have a church in Farmville, a church now under construction. Plans are already made for having our meeting and social get-togethers in the recreation rooms which are to be part of the new church. Ch T. AKE one skull, two cross- bones, eight white ' tobed individuals, add a dash of excitement, and brew well to the tune of Chloe. You now have a staunch group who are held fast by undying loyalty, strong bonds of friendship, and firm purpose. Season with spirit. This is Chi! You may think that you know all about us, but there is little that you really do know ! YouVe seen our banner hanging in the Rotunda, in the College Shoppe, and on the A. A. Field. YouVe seen us walk. YouVe seen our red paint. YouVe seen us burn our signals. But these are merely the outward evidences of our organization. Our real purposes are deep and strong. To us Chi is more than an organization. It is an institution as old as the college itself — one of the many traditions which are interwoven with the spirit of Longwood. We hold this spirit next to our hearts, and realizing that its existence depends on each student, we strive to kindle its flame and keep it burning. Speaking of flames, we played with fire one spring night. Our bonfire cast its glow and revealed our identities as Elizabeth Bragg, Robbie Cromar, B Hylton, Har- riet Ratchford, Louise Redd, Norma Roady, Barbara Sours, and Jane Williams. Our heartfelt thanks and appreciation go to Charlie Hop, whose support and encouragement were always there when needed. We shall always remember his enthusiasm and guidance.

The first glimpse of activities was a Sports Demonstration for new students to promote interest in sports on the campus. The activities shown on the following pages complete the year ' s story as outstanding college events. We of the council for women and men wish to thank all for splendid sportsmanship and interest. Our grateful appreciation we extend to Miss Her for her untiring services as our adviser. First row: Biddlecomb, C.

After many hours of hard work on the A. A. field the varsity hockey squad won its only game of the season, a game with Roanoke College. Later in the season our attention was turned indoors to basketball. Both the varsity basketball and the hockey teams saw a successful season under the leadership of Patsy Ritter. The Sopho- more Class Basketball Team was successful in defeating Blackstone College. Class Practice for Volleyball Left to right: Castros, Jardine, Gillie, Hathaway Volleybdll dnd Archery V LASS volleyball games ran close on the heels of basketball. Girls hurried to get in their eight practices to be eligible to play for their classes. Volleyball proved to be a popular sport on campus, and special practices were held at night. Spirited sportsmanship and rivalry were displayed by all members of teams and cheering sections. Archery came with spring time. Girls signed up as soon as possible to support their colors. They spent many hours on the A. A. field with bow and arrow in hand, shooting for the bulls ' eye. Fine sportsmanship was exhibited on the part of both colors in the archery matches. Congratu ' lations should be extended to the winners of both archery and volleyball, for there was keen sportS ' manship in both sports. In this review of sports mention should be made of the duties of the Athletic Council. Included on the Council are the Executive Com ' mittee and Managers for all sports, both varsity and class teams. These managers work with the captains of the individual teams to see that the activities are carried through as scheduled. Man ' aging the v olleyball this year was Nancy Walker. The manager of the spring archery events was Nancye Gillie. First row: Thompson, Elmore, Smallwood, Hutter Second row: Benedict, Clark, Orange, Bobb, Vaughan Third row : Frazier, Malloy , Parks, Huegal Left to right : Allen, Gillie Men ' s Basketball — Tennis Lc ONGWOOD S Athletic Program was boosted this year by the addition of a men ' s basketball team. The players on this original team showed fine spirit and ability, and the games afforded many exciting and enjoyable hours to the spectators. Games were scheduled with vari- ous other colleges in the state, some of which were Madison, R. P. I., Lynchburg, and Mary Washington. At the beginning of the basketball season, names for the team were submitted. Soon we recognized the team as the Longwood Pioneers. This name symbolizes the beginning of a co-ed student body and men ' s athletic teams at Long- wood. Uniforms of blue and white, the college colors, bore the player ' s number and the name of the team. The Pioneers were coached by Mr. Malloy, the faculty adviser to the men ' s basket- ball team, and Dr. Frazier, of Farmville. Lester Smallwood, a student of the College, was player- coach to the Pioneers. The manager of the men ' s basketball team was Buddy Gentry. One of our own students, Jack Huegal, held the position of referee for the Pioneers. This lirst step toward organized men ' s athletic teams of Longwood opens the door to an expanding and successful future. Nearing the end of the year ' s calendar, we find many sunburned faces on the tennis courts. This sport proved to be very popular with both the women and men students. Many fast and exciting games, in both singles and doubles, were watched and enjoyed by interested spectators. Congratu- lations to the winner of the fall singles, Frances Allen, and the runner-un.

She replaced Miss Barlowe, who retired from school last year. Many thanks are due Miss Osborne for her kind interest and leadership. Early in October we began plans for our annual water pageant. This, needless to say, is our biggest event of the year. Mary Miller and Jeanne Gilman were chosen co-chairmen to direct us through plans and rehearsals. Without these two hard work ' ers our pageant could not have been successful. Since the performance was given late in December, we decided upon a Christmas story for our theme. The program included a candle parade, a march of toy soldiers, a quartet, a duet, some clowns, an exhibi ' tion of diving, and the formation of a star. The main event of the evening was Santa in his water sled being pulled by eight reindeer. The formation of the letters ' ' HoO by sparklers concluded the pro ' gram. We would like to take this oppor- tunity to thank all those who participated in the performance and those who gave their invaluable aid. This year the telegraphic meet was combined with the class meets and held in March. This combination was a definite advantage, as it reduced the number of practices required. Through cooperation with the Red Cross, Life Saving courses were again offered and instructed by ' ' Clem Allen. Our officers for this successful year in- eluded our efficient president. Patsy Ritter our student adviser, Clem Allen: and our secretary-treasurer, Marjorie Boswick. Monogrdm Club T i HE purpose of the Monogram Club is to stimulate interest in sports and to recognize athletic ability, scholarship, and sportsmanship. Only those girls who we think are most outstanding in further ' ing this purpose are selected as members. The year was full of interest and activ ity. Color Rush found us busy making red and green hockey sticks to sell to each class. They added spirit and enthusiasm to each person as she sported her colors to the races and hockey games. Betsy Gravely and Jo Anna Phipps were m charge of our circus booth, which was a huge success. We sponsored Red and White Day on February 14, and ' ' Green and White Day on March 17, to enliven class spirit. On these days hearts and shamrocks were sold to class members. Formerly the membership of this club was very limited, but this year it was changed to admit any number of girls and to strengthen our organization through more activity. New members included the following: Hilda Edwards, Mary Lou Woodward, Mary Miller, Cabel Overbey, Mary Elizabeth Watson, Ann Langbein, Jo Anna Phipps, Sue Brewbaker, Ann Lynch, Mary Crowder, Betsy Gravely, Romine Mahood, Nancye Gillie, Marion Higgfe, Patty Walker, and June Ritchie. Former members of the club were the following : Frances Allen, Winifred Beard, Katherine Buck, Anna Famulatte, Martha Hylton, Ray Phillips, Norma Roady, Sue Walker, secretary ' treasurer, and Patsy Ritter, president.

The council meetings are held once a month. We, the council, always strive for excellence. Betty Ferguson, of Zeta Tau Alpha sorority, was our efficient president. Serv- ing with Betty were the following: Ann Lynch, vice-president; Pat Paddison, sec- retary; Maxine Watts, treasurer; Ruth Hathaway, chairman of programs; Laura Lee Stickley, chairman of publicity; Hilda Edwards, keeper of records; and Ann Kemp, chairman of rushing. October 25, we gave our Pan-Hellenic tea in the student lounge. June Banks entertained with her piano selections. During the tea Theta Sigma Upsilon was awarded the Scholastic Plaque for having the highest average during the preceding year. One significant change was made by the council in regard to rush parties. This year for the first time refreshments were served, which greatly added to the enjoy ment of these affairs. The choice and prep- aration of the food remained in the hands of the council. Pan-Hellenic dance, a delightful affair, was given on March 18; the music was supplied by the Metronones. The room was decorated by streamers in the colors of each sorority and by the murals on the walls. Each sorority had as guests ten non-sorority girls. The year has indeed been memorable to us. First row: Overbey, Hardin, Maddox, Richardson Second row: Bragg, Srickley, Ratchford, Robertson, Cromar, White, Nock, Sours Sigma Sigma Sigma J. HE chapter room was finally unlocked, and all of us hastened to get our belongings. It was wonderful to be back, to hear what everyone had done all sum ' mer, and especially exciting to hear Nock and Nancy Lee tell about the good time at Camp Strawderman. Soon fall rushing was over, and we had three lovely new girls — Sara Crocker, Betty Jones, and Pat Tuggle. We also had another new girl in our midst, Hilda Lewis. Madison and Longwood effected a little exchange whereby we lost Agnes Dingledine, but gained Hilda. We ' re glad to have her as one of us. Before we knew it. Circus was here, and we breathlessly waited to find out who Ring Master was. Imagine how proud and surprised we were when our own Margaret Ann stepped out into the spotlight ! A few weeks before Christmas, we gave the children at John Randolph School a party. Jean Ridenour did a fine job as head of social service. At our Christmas party we exchanged gifts. Cab took pictures of us around the tree, and we all said farewell for a few weeks. When everyone came back, we found that Cling, not to be outdone by Bobby Jean, had flashed those pretty eyelashes and re ' ceived an addition to her third finger, left hand. After struggling through exams, we were proud to see our Barbara Sours elected as Maid of Honor on the May Court. Serving her on the event were Jean Ridenour, Charlotte Jones, Charlotte Williams, Helen Hardin, Peggy White, and Jean Kreienbaum. To show that we have ability as well as beauty, Nock and Lizzie were chosen for Who ' s Who m American Colleges and Universities; Rob ' bie was Dining Room Hostess and presi- dent of Cotillion Club; Lizzie was tapped for Alpha Kappa Gamma and ably served as president of the student body. Jean Carter and Hank worked hard as chair- men of Junior and Senior dances. We began in the fall to redecorate our chapter room. With Hank at the head of the committee, we finally got the last drape hung in February. We celebrated with an ' ' open house one Sunday after- noon and invited some of -the house mothers to give us a few ideas as to how we might make the room look still prettier. We point with pride to our winter additions to the chapter. They are: Jean Farmer, Caroline MacDonald, Wanda Karlet, Sarah Ann Jones, Audrey Pettit, Jan Peebles, Ann Harding, Jan Van Horn, Polly Brothers, Diane Pflugfelder, Har- riet Minichan, and Jean Kreienbaum. We had many more exciting days to- gether before the year ended. In February our national president visited us; in April we had our annual Founder ' s Day banquet; in May we turned the Longwood cabin inside out with a week-end frolic. We ' d like to say thanks to the officers : Ann Nock, president; Nancy Lee Mad- dox, vice-president; Charlotte Williams, recording secretary; Charlotte K. Jones, corresponding secretary; and Betty Mc- Ree, treasurer. These girls made this one of the best years of our lives. Our greatest appreciation goes also to our ever under- standing adviser. Miss Kate Trent, whose help and enthusiasm helped us through many a problem.

The year started when, after the summer vacation, we got together in an informal party. We teased Romine about the Pea nut Festival, but we were proud of her being princess. B and Marian told us all about the marvelous time they had at the A.S.A. Convention in Port Huron, Michigan. We felt as if we had been there ourselves. National honored Alpha Chap ' ter by awarding us a beautiful silver tray in recognition of our outstanding achieve ment in leadership, scholarship, and ser ' vice for the past three years. During the first semester. Alpha Sigma Alpha girls were in many activities all over the campus. On November 15 we had our formal banquet commemorating the anniversary of our sorority. Jackie Moody had done a wonderful job arrang- ing the decorations and program, and, of course, the whole affair was thoroughly delightful. When the annual Circus event arrived, we were proud that Ray was in charge of all the arrangements. Roady made a perfectly beautiful queen repre- senting the senior class, and Jackie Jardine was the fairest on her court as representa- tive of the sophomore class. Then came Senior Dance just before Christmas with our ' ' Roady leading the class in as pretty a figure as the school has ever seen. For Christmas, the room was given an extra- special cleaning by Shirley and Mary Brame to show off our artistic efforts in holiday decorations. Our party was a happy affair made even happier by a col- lection of toys for local underprivileged children. We hated to see Nancy Bruce and Betty Lewis leave us at the end of the fall semester; but that ' s college life, and they graduated with our warmest wishes following them. The beginning of the new semester found us full of rushing plans, and we were, oh, so pleased to welcome Betty Jean Ayers, Betty Barnes, Roberta Brown- ing, Betty Scott Borkey, Sara Graham, Margie flood, Ann Kieth flundley. Bun- ny Dean Ricks, Iris Sutphin, and Mar- gorie Tray lor as our very own new sisters. We love them dearly, and know they bring new talent and ideas to our sorority. Next came our get together for a big rustic spree on April 29, when we donned blue-jeans for our Cabin Party at Longwood Estate. May Day was a highly successful affair under the direction of Patsy. ' ' B and Romine represented the pulchritude of A.S.A. on May Court. And then came the sad job of saying goodbye to our beloved seniors. Our love and best wishes to you, B , Roady, Patsy, Marian, Ray, Jackie, Mary, and Liz, in your future lives. No account of our past year ' s activities would be complete without mentioning and thanking our leaders — B ffylton, our president; Marian Breeden and Ann Kemp, vice-presidents; Betty Lewis Shank, secretary; and Chic Ritchie, treasurer. Above all, we hold heartfelt affection and gratitude to our own Miss Wall for her inspiration, wisdom, and cheerfulness, not to mention the love she holds for each and every one of her girls.

Our dreams came true when we found it possible to redecorate our room. It looked almost new, too, with the fresh paint, new draperies, and a new uphol- stered and covered sofa and chair. Then the pledges of last year put on the finish- ing touches of matching lampshades. Fall rushing was, cf course, foremost in our minds. We were rewarded with four wonderful Pi Kaps — the four fighting Ws: Patty, Sue, Nancy, and Jeanne Wilson. Once again on a lovely freezing early November morning — the 17th, of course — we struggled out of bed and over to the chapter room to have our Founder ' s Day ceremony. We then found ourselves in the College Shoppe enjoying enormous break- fasts. The Pi Kap spirit was very evident throughout the day. Before leaving for the holidays we en- joyed a wonderful party in the chapter room with fun and food and crazy little gifts to put away for memories. Senior Dance was memorable for a beautifully decorated chapter room full of lovely seniors in white. We enjoyed those intermissions. And them came examinations and spring rushing to fill our few spare mo- ments. We were thrilled with our seven new pledges: Nell Bradshaw, Nell Dalton, Challice Hayden, Sara McElroy, Anne Murphy, Judith Spindler, and Sue Webb. We were very proud of Betsy Gravely, tapped by Alpha Kappa Gamma in No- vember; of Jackie Eagle, editor of THE ROTUNDA; and of Joyce Webb, editor of THE VIRGINIAN. Our own Lucyle Humphries was crowned by vice-president Alben Barkley to reign as the beautiful queen of the Culpeper bi-centennial festival last summer. Pi Kap beauty was not slighted in the May Day exercises. Anne M. Motley, Frances Garnett and Frances Turner added beauty to the queen ' s court. Many other Pi Kaps participated in the May Day program. In June we bade a reluctant farewell to our seniors. With deepest appreciation and gratitude we paid tribute to Miss Olive Her, our beloved adviser; our patrons, Mr. and Mrs. Samuel Graham; and to our officers of the year: Louise Redd, president; Betsy Gravely, vice- president; Shirley Simmons, recording secretary; Puckett Asher, corresponding secretary; Pat Davis, treasurer; and Ann Lynch, Pan-Hellenic representative.

Our presi ' dent, June Banks, was chosen queen of A.S.T. at the August convention in Detroit, a lovely queen. It took time, but we finally got the chapter room straight again and settled down to another year of meetings, parties, and fun together. Fall rushing brought us three new Tau babies : Claudia Anderson, Jane Lee Kellogg, and Jackie Woodward. Next on the calendar was our Founder ' s Day banquet. This was a very special occasion since 1949 was our fiftieth anni ' versary year. Christmas came next, and with it we lost Jackie Woodward. She became Mrs. William Flanagan and de ' serted us for him. Soon after Christmas May Court was elected. Our own Dolores Duncan was elected queen! What a beautiful queen! Please pardon us if we seem to boast. A.S.T. ' s to serve on the court were Marjorie Boswick, June Banks, and Clau ' dia Anderson — three more beauties we are proud to claim. Our calendar of events doesn ' t stop here. Oh, no. There is much, much more. Spring rushing brought us fourteen fine new pledges; Bobbie Obenshain, Pat Tay- lor, Hazel Wilkins, Sonia Kile, Peggy Covington, Mary Ann Johnson, June Rose Morgan, Mary Winston Johnson, Lee Wingfield, Betty Hancock, Dot Boswick, Anne Biddlecomb, Virginia Pickett, and Betsy Wiley. There v ere the parties. The cabin party in April was a memorable affair. We all trouped out to the cabin as gay a group as ever seen. We played soft ' ball, tag, and hiding. We ate and ate, and played cards and ate arid played some more. We didn ' t sleep much. When we dragged back to school Sunday morning, we were about the saddest lump of femininity that ever crept on weary limbs. Other parties were much fun, too. There were our intermission parties, our Christ ' mas party, and then just plain parties. We enjoyed our year together. With June came the inevitable good- byes sadly said to the Seniors: Lelia Mae Ferratt, Jane Williams, Dolores Duncan, Hope Duke, Dot Carter, Jean Turner, Marjorie Boswick, Pat Paddison, and Helen Arington. They left us with a gay note, though, because we will see them in a few days at Virginia Beach for our annual final party. First row: Woodward, Newman Second row: J. Carter, Ferratt, Pittard, B. J.

Cupid really had been doing his bit during the summer for some of our Theta sisters ; Connie, Jean, Anne Foreman, and Nancy had come back with diamonds on third fingers, left hands. Winnie and Anne Langbein blew in with great news from the convention — that Tau chapter had won the scholarship cup for having a higher scholastic average than any other of the chapters. Were we proud of this ! Quite proud were we, too, of Winnie, who had won third place in the Theta Girl Contest for 1949. Our spirits were lowered, though, when we found Miss Jennings, our Mother ' Patroness, was not back with us on account of illness. However, Mrs. Phillips accepted the invitation to become our adviser; and a most wonderful one she has been. We felt that the chapter room needed redecorating; we set to work; and before many months had passed, we had a new ' looking room. Fall rushing brought us Nell Gilley, who has made a wonderful Theta sister. In October we were thrilled when we won the scholarship plaque for the third consecutive time. We were indeed happy when Page was tapped by Alpha Kappa Gamma in the fall. Also adding to the glory of the chap ' ter were Winnie, our president, who was president of Choir, Anne Langbein, who was editor of the COLONNADE and who was mentioned in Who ' s Who In 124 American Colleges and Universities ' ; Page Burnette and Bev, who were Senior Class officers; Virginia Spencer, who was secretary cf the Y ; Polly, who was business ' inanager of the Colonnade and president of the Richmond Club; Evelyn, who was on May Day Committee; and Jean, who was a senior representative on the Assembly Committee. This year Gin Spencer was elected as the Theta Girl candidate from Tau Chapter. In December came Senior Dance, the Christmas party, and the Christmas tea given us by Mrs. Phillips at Longwood Estate. The chapter room was decorated in fine style for Senior Dance and the Christmas party. We brought to the party gifts for the children in the polio ward at M. C. V. When second semester Came, we found many things happening. Miss Jennings was back with us; Gin had gotten pin ' ned; Nancy and Ann Critzer had gradu ' ated and were no longer with us. We then set our minds and hearts on rushing and claimed for our very own eight wonderful girls. We welcomed Helen Barrow, Bar- bara Cotton, Barbara Gamble, Mary Frances Graube, Joyce Richardson, Jane Seward, Lillian Shelton, and Eleanor Weddle. In March we celebrated our Founder ' s Day with the annual banquet in the Tea Room and a house party at Longwood Estate. We were happy to have several of our alumnae back with us for this occasion. In June we said fond farewell to sixteen of our senior sisters. This has been a most successful year for Theta Sig under the leadership of Winifred Beard, presi ' dent; Harriet Bowling, vice-president; Virginia Spenser, secretary; Polly Nasser, treasurer; Lucy Vaughn, corresponding secretary; Ann Langbein, editor; Jean Hogge, historian; and Mrs. Josephine Phillips, adviser.

At first, of course, we missed the five girls — Jackie, Paulette, Adelaide, Lee, and Jennie Lee — who left us in June, but we remembered what fun we had at the farewell party in May. They were presented with tiny china mugs engraved with the letters K.D. , and each one read aloud a humor ' ous poem written in her honor. It was a tearful occasion as the first departing Kappa Deltas of Alpha chapter received a formal farewell from those of us left. Soon however, we were caught up in various activities, such as hearing all about the National Convention of Kappa Delta in Duluth, to which Frankie was a delegate. Alpha ' s first pledges signed their bids on October 19. Our six new sisters — Anne Moody, Anne Neblett, Kim Cole ' man, Jill Pifer, Mary Leigh Meredith, and Jean Smith — started something new when they gave a tea in the chapter room for all the other pledges. Positively glowing we were when Julia Ober, national editor of Kappa Delta, visited us. With all her pep and vitality, she absolutely filled us with in- spiration. And then when both Julia and Betty MuUer, national president of Kappa Delta, came down for our first initiation, our cup of pride ran over. Pleased as punch ! That ' s what we were with our new officers for ' 49- ' 50. They were Frances Dodson, president; Helen Connelley, vice-president; Jean Hobbs, secretary; Denise Love, treasurer; Hilda Edwards, Pan-Hellenic delegate; Hop Crit2;er, assistant treasurer; Helen Smith, rush chairman; and Maria Jackson, editor. All of us were busy working on favors for the Thanksgiving basket we sent to our Kappa Delta children in the Richmond Crippled Children ' s Hospital. Under Mary ' s direction, we concocted all sorts of Spanish dancers, Peter-Pan figures, and Southern belles from pipe cleaners and crepe paper. ' Deed how much fun we had at our Christmas party! Everyone, including the advisory board and alumnae with us, re- ceived a humorous gift and poem. After all was said and done, however, the tree committee insisted that they had the most fun. Everyone of us was so happy to wel ' come Celeste Bishop, Lucy Page Hall, Virginia McLean, Jean Partidge, and Helen Tanner, as our spring pledges. We know that they will be- the sweetest sisters ever! Land sakes! We had some very versa- tile gals in Alpha this year. There were Denise, president of Pi Gamma Mu and vice-president of the Senior Class; Hilda, president of Orchesis; Bootie, secretary of the sophomore class; Maria, sophomore house president, and secretary of the French Circle; Mary Leigh, managing editor of the Rotunda; Ruth, secretary of the Farmville Club and treasurer of the Spanish Club; and Dolores, treasurer of the French Circle; and Frankie, senior class representative on the Student Coun cil. To our beautiful Frankie and Hilda we gave four salaams daily for two weeks. Why not? They deserved it, for they were on May Court. And then there were our after-dinner coffees in the chapter room several times during the year that seemed to bring us closer together. As Porky Pig would say, T-t-that ' s all, folks! First row: J.

How eager we were to get back to Farmville, and into another year of well ' inixed work and play! It seemed that everybody couldn ' t be here soon enough to open the door. How much we ' d missed each other, and how we wanted to know just what had happened to each and every one all through the long summer months! Last year we, as Mu Omega, a local sorority, had become the Alpha chapter of Zeta Tau Alpha, international women ' s fraternity. Sadness and joy were mixed in our hearts those last few months of spring : sadness for the loss of Mu Omega, and joy for the rebirth of Zeta Tau Alpha ' s Alpha chapter. However, our deep devo ' tion to Mu Omega made us realize that it wasn ' t a loss, but a gain, for Mu Omega was only suffering a growing pain, and we grew to love our dear Zeta Tau Alpha with all our heart. Now another year had begun, and each of us endeavored to make it the best year yet! We stopped to count; only sixteen present ! We ' d lost a few, and among those few, there was a one whose absence was most conspicuous: our beloved adviser. Miss Wheeler. We ' d miss her, but we knew she ' d want us to stop wasting time, and begin right now. We began! October brought us six little packages of joy, our six little pledges: Claudia Bradshaw, Nancy Lee Cosby, Nancy Henderson, Ruth (Spot) Myers, Mary Jo Smith, and Margaret Thomas, and our wonderful new patroness. Miss Staggs. Yes, we were thrilled. So we gave them a party. When Christmas came, we could hardly wait to put up the tree! That Friday night, we had the best Christmas party ever. We put up the tree, and then Sadie once more came to our rescue with lus- cious refreshments. The new year came in, then February. What was in store for Zeta? Nine more loved pledges: Catherine Bishop, Ann Dickerson, Dorothy Fugate, Ann Jones, Mary Moore Karr, Donna Kunkler, Pat Lee, Ella Sue Smith, Amanda Wright. How happy we were! The fact that we couldn ' t all possibly have a chair was only a joke. Did somebody say, Let ' s have a party? Before we could believe it, another year had passed all too quickly. May the next one be just as wonderful! Our officers for the year were: Betty House, president; Margaret Beasley, vice-president; Mary B. Smith, secretary; and Harriet Butter- worth, treasurer. Thanks go to the many others whose true and loyal services made the year such a wonderful leaf for our Zeta book. Left to right: Garbee, Bradshaw, Henderson, Myers, M.

Not only did we have our room to get in order, but all of our credentials. This was our first year on campus as Delta Sigma Epsilon. Our local Phi Zeta Sigma Chapter became the Alpha Psi Chapter of Delta Sigma Epsilon the first part of May of last year. Two of the grand ' council members, Mrs. Beidler and Mrs. Riddleberger, assisted by Lamb ' da and Omega Chapters from Huntington and Concord, West Virginia, installed us. We felt very proud to know that we had so many new sisters. Naturally, we expect to miss our Phi Zetas, but we are putting our best foot forward for Delta Sig. We celebrated our National Founder ' s Day September 25 with a party and a sing at the Misses Hiner ' s. Everything was delicious. Thanksgiving found us again celebrating with Miss Winnie V. Hiner, our devoted sponsor, and Miss Mary Clay Hiner, our kind patroness. Umm, that turkey was good ! Our rushing for the winter of this year was more than a happy one, for we gained six wonderful girls: Jean Elliott, Inez; Hughes, Eloise Hodges, Lucy Jones, Jo Anna Phipps, and Frances Ann Ramsey. Our first initiation was very impressive, and along with the new rushees we initi ' ated Frances Hughes, a Phi Zeta, to become one of our alumnae. Senior Dance proved to be an eventful weekend. With so many white dresses floating around the room, our Christmas tree, the punch bowl, etc., the party was the thing! My, how we hate to see our seniors leave. We are going to miss Ann, Jo Anna, Lucy, Buck, Dot, B.G., Patsy, Hessie, Ruth and Jane. At last Christmas come, and that meant holidays. The Christmas party was a success, and as is the custom, we ex- changed Christmas stockings and verses. It is amazing the hidden talent we have! However, all the fun had to end-; with the new year came exams. They took a great deal of study, but we came through with flying colors. This spring we are celebrating our Alpha Psi Founder ' s Day in May. This along with May Day should make our month an exciting one. Patsy Kimbrough will be shining there in court ! Pat, we are proud of you. Our new spring rushees are a credit to us also. They are the following : Nancy Haynes, Nancy Wooldridge, Betty Shinhoulser, Mary Anna Oliver, Betsy Bevell, Elizabeth Stone, and Carolyn Michael. We are especially pleased with our officers of this year, for they have had a big job before them. The officers for this year are the following: president, Ann Nichols; vice-president, Laura Buchanan; recording secretary, Barbara Grizzard; treasurer, Peggy Harris; Pan-Hellenic rep- resentative, Ruth Hathaway; and corres- ponding secretary, Eloise Hodges, replac- ing Pat Donnally, who we regret had to leave at mid-term.

In October, 33 upperclass ' men accepted our bids; then, in February we issued 54 bids to freshmen. They were sad children ' come ' ' goating — these goats. April fifteenth was our big night — the first Annual Cotillion Club dance featuring Russ Carlton. We proudly witnessed a huge success ! Our officers were Robbie Cro- mar, president; Helen Hardin, fig- ure leader; Peggy White, secre- tary-treasurer; and Catherine Bon- durant, business manager. Mr. M. B. Coyner was again our adviser. Orchesis i HE annual Dance Day symposium, which we inaugurated last year was successfully carried through again this year on December 8. In preparation for this, Orchesis made a tour to a few neighboring high schools, demonstrating techniques and several compositions, of which the spiritual ' ' Walk Around Heaven received many laughs when Patsy Ritter and Ann Nock rose to shine. February brought a long-awaited pleasure as we sat spellbound throughout a concert given by Martha Graham at Randolph Macon Women ' s College. From this we returned eager and ready to put the needed hard work on our annual dance recital, which was given March 17. This year ' s recital proved to be a most successful attempt at dance drama — enacting Mary Ellen Chase ' s novel The Plum Tree. With modernis- tic and suggestive props we combined music, drama, dance, and the voice to produce the story of Nurse Emma Davis, who struggles through the hardships and despair of nursing and running a Home for Aged Women. As soon as our recital ended, we started to work on May Day, in which Orchesis played a big part. This year ' s May Day Theme was The Waltz Ballad. It was a spectacular and beautiful story of dance, from the waltz, which conquered the world, to our own American square dance. Proud we were of the job Patsy Ritter did as Chairman of our Festivity — and Hilda Edwards as Dance Chairman. This year of modern dance has been a memorable one for us in Orchesis, and we extend our deepest appreciation to our loyal adviser, Mrs. Emily K. Landrum. Our capable officers were as follows: president, Hilda Edwards; costume chair- men Kitty Carmichael and Katie Bon- Reddini; up Cromar Edw ird-.

Page 42 The Rec Dances, Cake Walks, Snack Bar treats, and Chapel meets — all played parts in the lives and loves of seniors. We laughed at ' ' getting all shook at ' ' Bird Club meetings; then came the day of all days about which no one would ever tell. We shall remember our Senior Sing and then our pride at May Day, when one of our own ranks was crowned queen. Lovely Dolores. B. S. was maid of honor. There was a beautiful supporting cast: Betty, Peggy, Hilda, B , Patsy, Frankie, Frances G., Marjorie, and Roady. Of course we cried at the sentimental songs sung at Senior Chapel; we realised that here were wrapped all the college joys, the fun and fellowship, the heart ' aches, and struggles and late hours to get those final papers in. Here we tied the knot to seal those rich experiences so next year a frosh could pick up a parcel and open it to find some of the many treasures inside. We all want to thank Miss Elizabeth Burger for being the best adviser any class could ever have hoped for. Without her encouragement and active interest we would have been quite lost. Appreciation is also extended to our loyal class officers: president. Norma Roady; vicc ' president, Denise Love; secretary, Beverly Smethie; and treasurer. Page Burnette. They have ably led us. Now we go forward to even brighter horizons because we have known the loves of college days and shared them. FRESHMAN CLASS HISTORY Continued from Page 68 With Clara Borum as captain, we really had the other classes worried during the hockey season. Not only in hockey did the freshmen shine, but also they really came forth in basketball and in volleyball. Before we knew it, February was here, and Nathalie Bryant found herself with the job of directing the Freshman Sing. Our Sing, Campus Capers, was not entirely fictitious, however, as it was a take ' off of the freshmen ' s two weeks on campus. Who will ever forget those two weeks ! We immediately began planning for a production, which was presented in March. Under the direction of Sarah McElroy and Virginia McLean as cO ' chairmen we knew we would be a great success. Burlesque on a typical Farmville movie full of Long wood girls was carried out in detail with a good musical and dance score furnished by our abundant talent. When 10 o ' clock struck, the Long ' wood girls scampered as usual back to their habitual abode. Then came May, and in a perfect spring setting we saw two of our very own Freshmen take their place on the May Court — Margaret Taylor and Jean Kreienbaum. We ' ll never forget May day for another reason, too, for it was also bringing to a quick close the end of our freshman year — a year that was to be the introduction to three more wonderful and adventurous years.

We hope that through these pages we have brought back to your memory the events of this year. Among those who have been invaluable in helping us produce this book are the following: THE LYNCHBURG ENGRAVING COMPANY, Lynchburg. J. P. BELL COMPANY, Lynchburg. ANDRE STUDIO, Lexington. To Miss Nancy Foster, our literary adviser, and to Miss Virginia Bedford, our art adviser, we wish to express our thanks. Without the aid of Mr. T. A. McCorklc, our adviser, the 1950 VIRGINIAN would not exist. The many hours he spent with us in producing this yearbook are greatly appreciated by the staff. The cooperation and interest of the Student Body, Faculty, and Administration made the task of pre ducing a yearbook a pleasure. To our staff we wish to say thank-you for all the service you have given to us. We extend our best wishes to Charlotte King Jones, and Georgia Bail ey who will be responsible for the VIRGINIAN of 1951, 4 JOYCE WEBB, EdUornn-chief. HELEN KAKNIS, Business Manager.
