Wilson Jarman, who was suddenly stricken ill. Since that time, as Acting Presi- dent, Mrs. Grafton has directed the activities of the College so smoothly and efficiently that none of us can fail to admire her. We wish to take this way and opportunity to thank her for her patient and continuous work, her un- derstanding of, and sympathy with, our prob- lems, and, above all, for her unfailing devotion to Mary Baldwin College.

Alary Baldwin, Mary Baldwin, Woman ' s dreams of love and true desire; Conqueror ' s dreams with passion ' s ardor glowing, Caught from Truth ' s undying, pure white fire. Born to live, to perish never. To inspire to high endeavor, To uphold that light forever, Mary Baldwin. Thou wast built of dreams, Mary Baldwin, Mary Baldwin, Dreams of faith, the dreams of early dawn. Thou shalt live beyond time ' s farthest limit; Dreams shall last when walls of stone are gone. Born to live, to perish never. To inspire to high endeavor, To uphold that light forever, Mary Baldwin. SENIOR SONG (Tune: Londonderry Air ) While mountains guard thee in the Shenandoah, And loyal daughters daily look to thee. The spool of happy days is fast unwinding Its colors rare for memory ' s tapestry. The tall white columns gleaming in the sunlight. The moonlight casting over all its spell. The scarlet autumn, and the winter snowflakes. Oh, Mary Baldwin, can we say Farewell ? May laughter ring, and dreams be ever golden. Along the terrace there above the street, May friendships live like truth ' s white tlame a-glowing Like truth ' s white flame that never meets defeat. Where ' er we be, we ' ll cherish with fond happiness, That golden tapestry of memory ' s spell. And ever we our faith and love will pledge thee, So, Mary lialdwin, hail and farewell. 24 SENIOR CLASS OFFICERS GLORIA DUKE President JANET BELL LAURA JANE ATKINSON ] icc-Prcsidcnt Secretary MISS McCULLOCH Sponsor COLORS OF THE CLASS OF 1947 Green and White PATRICIA EUBANK Treasurer 25 THE BLUESTOCKinS EVELYN CUNNINGHAM ANDERSON Jacksonville, Florida Candidate for Bachelor of Arts Degree Sociolocjy It will be indeed hard to ever iind a more perfect example of efficiency and charm than Bebe has managed to demonstrate to us in her four years at Mary Baldwin. We need only to glance at her long list of responsible positions to realize that she is one in a million. To quickly prove our point, this year Bebe was the chairman of Freshman Advisers, a member of the Student Council, Presidents ' Forum, and the Y.W.C.A. Committee. Of such ability, we expect great things in the future for Bebe. 26 ELEANOR BOWLES ARMISTEAD Staunton, Virginia Candidate for Bachelor of Arts Degree Biology With Runny around we knew all about atomic energy ' long before Hiro- shima ! This bundle of vitality has the admirable way of going straight to the top in every thing she does. Not only has Bunny won for herself a place in the coveted Honor Society but has accomplished equally amazing feats in the less intellectual circles. Last year she was the editor of the Bluestocking and has this year topped her numerous laurels in the world of sports serving as president of the A. A., member of the Student Council and Presidents ' Forum. We will always remember her professional renditions on the harmonica and the laughs she gave us with Celery Stalks Along the Highway. Her more illustrious achievements will be preserved in the annals of Who ' s Who Among Students in American L ' niversities and Colleges. 27 THE BLUESTOCKIHG LAURA JANE ATKINSON Richmond, Virginia Candidate for BacJiclor of Arts Dcyn Chemistry To have k-d what appears to have been a quiet life, Laura Jane has made a place for herself here. She was a Freshman adviser her sophomore and junior years, treasurer of her junior class and secretarj of her senior class and chair- man of the social committee for the school. It must be an unusual creature who is a chemistry major and May Queen attendant — but then we remember Madame Curie, as seen through the eyes of Greer Garson. We ' ll miss the Siren of the Chem Lab. 28 JANET BAYLESS BELL Staunton, Virginia Candidate for Bachelor of Arts Degree English If one has remained unaware of Jan ' s presence ' tis only because her subtle wit and Ary humor have been too much for us. Through work and play, Jan has taken her own sweet time to fill four years full to the brim and exit no worse for the wear and tear ! Among her more noble positions — she was a member of the Victory Corps her sophomore year and the business manager of Campus Com- ments last year. This year found Janet serving as vice-president of her class. The echo of her perpetual cry, Don ' t hurry, we still have two minutes will remam forever in the day student corridor. 29 THE BLUESTOCKIHG MIRIAM IRENE BUCKLES Newport News, Virginia Candidalc for Bachelor of Arts Degree Music Buck of the inexhaustable energy and permanent smile has indulged in so many and varied activities that we could never do them all the justice they deserve. For four years she has been a member of the Y.W. Cabinet, being this year the president, representative on the Student Council and Presidents ' Forum. An equally active member of the Glee Club, Dramatic Club and A.A., we are ever so proud to acclaim Buck as one of our illustrious members of Who ' s Who Among Students in American Universities and Colleges. 30 MARGARET FINLEY CHURCHMAN Staunton, Virginia Candidate for Bachelor of Arts Degree Music When Moggie sings for her supper, you can be sure she eats heartily! For four years she has been a member of the Glee Club and has entertained us on numerous occasions with a solo in Chapel. We may well assume that Moggie holds talent in other capacities as well for she has consistently been elected an officer in the Day Student Club. In her sophomore year she was treasurer, sec- retary as a junior and this year Moggie served as president and representative on the Student Council and Presidents ' Forum. If this doesn ' t evoke envy from all, surely her blonde hair and perpetual sun-tan do. 31 THE BLUEST OCKIHG NANCY LEE DEACON Catonsvillf, Maryland Candid ale for Bachelor of Arts Dct rcc Sociology The way to start on Chic ' s many accomphshments is to take a deep breath and jump right in. We ' ll try the group system. To begin: Social committee member her freshman and sophomore years, class president her freshman year and member of the Presidents ' Forum, member of the Dramatic Club for three years and member of the casts of both plays her junior year, member of a Y committee and class varsity member in hockey and basketball her junior and senior years. She was Student Council secretary her junior year and vice-president her senior year, in addition to being chairman of the Club House Committtee. Then, to finish it all the proper way, she led the Beauty Section and made one of the loveliest May Queens anywhere for miles around. 32 GLORIA FRANCES DUKE Memphis, Tennessee Candidate for Bachelor of Arts Degree English As president of the senior class, Gloria, with all the charm of a true Mem- phis belle, will lead forth the procession when comes long anticipated graduation day ! And no one is more deserving of the honor than Gloria who was last year the secretary of her class and, as a senior, the president of the International Rela- tions Club and on Presidents ' Forum. All of us who have so enjoyed the many congenial hours spent at the Club will indeed find it hard to say goodbye to Gloria, one of our most brilliant conversationalists and willing fourth for a quick hand of bridge. 33 THE BIUESTOCKIHG DORA ELIZABETH DUNN Parkersburg, West Virginia Candidate fur Bachelor of Arts Dcgrc Music There was never a one who liad a more dirt-ct line of interests than Lib. She joined the Music, Glee and Dramatic Clubs in her freshman year and remained a member until quittin ' time. She enlarged on the sports angle a little from her first year though — From basketbalT that year to adding, and keeping, hockey and basketball team memberships through her senior year. She managed to look in on the Art Club her junior year, and there was still time for Y committee mem- bership all four years. 34 ANNE HOWARD EARLY Charlotte Court House, Virginia Candidate for Bachelor of Arts Degree Sociology To look at her, you ' d never say that Anne was the executive type, but that she was. A model maybe ; but she foxed us. She was vice-president of her fresh- man class, social service committee chairman her sophomore year, secretary of the Y her junior year and house president of Hilly Toppy her senior year, and a member of the executive committee too. She has played basketball all four years, was dorm team captain her junior year and Monogram Club member her senior. Just to fulfill our expectations about the model business, she was Mary Baldwin ' s representative to the Apple Blossom Festival in Winchester the spring of her junior year. We almost forgot her assistant editing of the Bluestocking her junior year. 35 THE BLUESTDCKIHG KATHRYN LUCILE ELSE Roselle Park, Xew Jersey Candidate for Bachelor of Arts Degree History Although Kaye came to school as a junior transfer, it was not long before she had made a place for herself. She became active in the International Relations, Spanish and Biology Clubs, and her senior year was vice-president of the Inter- national Relations Club and a member of the devotional committee of the Y. Quick, courteous, always ready with a smile from quiet brown eyes, this transfer from Union Junior College added her part to M.B.C. kaleidoscope of personalities. 36 PATRICIA ANN EUBANK Memphis, Tennessee Candidate for Bachelor of Arts Degree Psychology We needn ' t ask Pat what she will be doing this time next year for a quick glance at her third finger left hand makes the answer quite obvious! As a fresh- man and sophomore, Pat was a member of the Art Club. Her creative talent was released in the next two years through intricate sketches made in class! Last year Pat was a reporter on the staff of Campus Comments and was this year the treasurer of the senior class. So little and yet so very charming that no one could remain unaware of Pat ' s scintillating presence, especially at the Club where she has so often pondered over a lengthy letter to— why. David, of course ! 37 THE BLUESTOCKIHG CHARLOTTE MARION FALL Greenville. ' ir.t; iiiia Ccntdidatr fur Bachelor of .Irts Dci rcc Sociology When a trail was finally blazed out of Greenville, Shot headed straight for M.B.C. to try her talents in civilization. Pulling herself up to her full six feet, we at once became aware of her presence ! The name grew most familiar with the honors list and Shot is now the accepted synonym for anyone athletically in- clined. Starting with basketball varsity her freshman year, Charlotte moved up to be the able vice-president of the A. A. this year. If we need to say more, we might add that she is a livid Cooley fan, a pillar of the Sociolog}- department. 38 NANCY ELLIOTT GILL Petersburg, Virginia Candidate for Bachelor of .Irts Degree Spanish Nancv, anotlier Mrginia lass and one who claims Petersburg as her home town, holds a ■ ' major interest in Spanish, and thus it is not surprising that she has been an ardent supporter of the Spanisli Ckib during her four years at Mary Baldwin. Although she is rather quiet, it does not take one long to discover that she has a very pleasing sense of humor, and she is often caught in a characteristic pose as she stands by and watches the frivolous capers of her classrnates. The fact that Nancy is one who accepts responsibility and fulfills her position is evidenced not only by the success she maintained as a freshman adviser in her junior year, but by the capable way in which she served (jn the Student Council in her senior year as House President of Rose Terrace in its first year as a dormitory. 39 THE BLUE5T0CKIHG WINIFRED LOUISE GOCHENOUR Staunton, Virginia Cuiiditlatc for Bachelor of Arts Degree Music Winnie of the sparkling eyes, the ever-ready fourth when the day students gather for lunch at the Club, and the ever-ready smile wlicn we met her in the halls, or more particularly in the Music Building. That was more than natural, music being her major field and main interest. She was a member of the Glee Club for four years and did her share of work in the Music Club. Her senior year she was asked to help the new day students by being a Freshman Adviser. 40 VIRGINIA GUTHRIE Fort R ' lcClellan, Alabama. Candidate for Bachelor of Arts Degree Biology Arniv brat extraordinary, Ginnv takes in numerous activities and does them all well. A member of the Biology Club for all four years, she served as sec- retary her junior year and president this year. She has been a member of the Spanish Club her first three years, a member of the YWCA social committee, head of hiking on the AA Council, and, just to keep from getting one-sided or anything like that, has taken an active interest in basketball and hockey all four years she has been here. 41 THE BLUEST OCKIHG BETTY JANE HAMILTON Memphis, Tennessee Candidate for Bachelor of Arts Degree English B. J. has won for herself a real place in the exciting world of sports. She has taken part in just about every thing the athletic department has had to offer, being a sports leader on the A. A. Council last year. As a senior, B. J. served as house president of Fraser, a member of the Student Council and Inter- national Relations Club. Those of us who cherish an interest in all competitive games will ever miss the enthusiastic support of B. J. 42 FLORENCE OLDHAM HARRIS Clarksdale, Mississippi Candidate for Bachelor of Arts Degree English Flo is one of those awe-inspiring individuals who somehow manage to delve into just about every campus activity and still achieve the highest scholastic honors. In her sophomore year, Flo was secretary of her class and won the class scholarship. History almost repeated itself last year when she was presi- dent of her class and again won the scholarship. As a senior and member of the Student Council, Flo was elected to the Honor Society and to Who ' s Who Among Students in American Colleges and Universities. 43 THE BLUESTOCKIHG EMILY WALLACE HUNDLEY Lebanon, Kentucky Candidate for Bachelor of Arts Degree French For a girl whose favorite indoor sports are eating and sleeping, Em has done remarkable well in her waking and hungry moments. She was consistently a member of the French, Music and Dramatic Clubs until her senior year, when the Spanish Club took the place of the Music and Dramatic Clubs. She has also consistently been a member of the Y devotion and program committees. For her junior and senior years, she has been a member of the Presidents ' Forum as president of the French Club. Her senior year she tried her wings as advising the freshmen, in an official capacity, and at counciling with the Athletic Associa- tion, the gal with the bow and arrows. William Tell Hundley, she was knowed as in them days. 44 MARIANNA JAMISON Staunton, Virginia Candidate for Bachelor of Arts Degree Englisli Jamie belongs to that much envied group of students in our midst who are blessed with voices, of the singing caliber! A faithful member of the Glee Club and Music Club, Jamie proved to us that a sweet disposition can match a sweet voice, which makes for a very nice combination in our language. Lending her talents to the business world last year, Jamie was the assistant business manager of the Bluestocking. This year she has served as the day student representative on the Y.W. Cabinet. Could we ask for more in so little a package? 45 THE BLUEST OCKIHG MARY GRAVES KNOWLES Staunton, Virginia Candidate for Bachelor of Arts Deijrec History We feel a little self-conscious writing about Mary Graves for she knows the press, in and out ! We are quite sure that lMar - Graves learned to spell with printers type, for her four years at M.B.C. have proved her an old hand at tlu- trade. Joining the staff of Campus Comments her freshman year, she worked straight on up to be elected Editor for this year. In order to keep her work from being too confined, Mary Graves found time to serve as staff editor of the Miscellany her junior and senior years. Just to prove that she has other traits just as admirable, she has for three years been a member of the . . day student committee. 46 KATHERINE WRIGHT KOHLER Hagerstown, Maryland Candidate for Bachelor of Arts Degree French K. T. is responsible tor ever so many of those attractive posters that are always around on back gallery. Last year she was the art editor of the Bluestocking and president of the Art Club as well. Not enough to be known for her artistic talent, she was found to be Mary Baldwin ' s very own William Tell! K. T. won the archery cup her freshman year and was last year the archery leader on the A. A. Council. This year she proved herself a business woman as well through her etttcient w ork as student treasurer. 47 THE BLUESTDCKIHG ALICE DORA MILLER Staunton, Virginia Candidate for Bachelor of Arts Degree Music There is no obstacle too great to keep Alice Dora away from the ] Iusic Building or that inevitable rendezvous with the organ. We are indeed assured of the fact that there is some strange fascination behind it all ! Why else would one so attractive, as to be elected to the most enviable position of senior marshal. choose to spend a good three-fourths of her time in such seclusion ? In all fairness we must hasten to add that Alice Dora is far from lacking in the social graces as her position as president of the Glee Club so aptly demonstrates. 48 MARY ELIZABETH REED Martinsville, ' irginia Candidate for Bachelor of Arts Degree Enylish Our lone transfer from Peace Junior College in lo ! these many years was one Beth, first a Red Riddle Raider, then an enthusiastic member of Hilly Toppy ' s cheering section. The dead pan that went with the subtle humor— Mack truck style — was a joy to behold. We ' ll remember her with a Coke bottle in one fist, and her bridge hand clenched in the other. We could count on her to see the other side of the question, no matter what the discussion, so life was never a trap with her around. If it had three sides, so much the better. — the question, not life. With this natural leaning, the International Relations Club was the automatic choice. 49 THE BIUESTOCKmS MARIAN CATHERINE SEITZ ilmington, Delaware Candidate for Bachelor of Arts Degree History Despite the ultra feminine long blond hair, Marian is quite an athlete ! Last year she was the president of the Monogram Club, sports leader on the A. A. Council and a member of the Presidents ' Forum. As a senior, Marian was again a sports leader on the A. A. Council, although she shifted her interest from hockey to swimming, and was the secretary-treasurer of the Monogram Club. All of which goes to prove that beauty and brawn can go hand in hand. 50 CATHERINE AMMEN STONER Fincastle, ' irginia Candidate for Bachelor of Arts Degree English Kacky came to Mary Baldwin for her last two years and immediately won a place for herself with her great big smile — which we have discovered is perpetual — and friendly disposition. Joining the Spanish Club last year, we found out that she is practically bi-lingual as well as an avid basketball player and fan ! If they will all be like Kacky, Farmville can send us more ! 51 THE BIUE5T0CKIHG MARY ANN THACKSTON Greenville, South Carolina Candidate for Bachelor of .Irts Decree Chemistry Athletics at Mar_v l!ald vin just wouldn ' t be the same without Alary Ann. President of the Monogram Club this year, she has been on hockey and basket- ball teams ever since she came here, with a little Softball thrown in. Aside from sports, she manages to combine membership in the Biology and International Relations Clubs and a place on the Presidents ' Forum with frequent trips to Charlottesville, and even more frequent visits from that city. 52 ELIZABETH TRAYNHAM VANCE Covington, Virginia Candidalc for Bachelor of Arts Degree Psychology What was it the costume man for Fancy Dress said about Tray when presented with those tell-tale dimensions, we ' d like to know? Whatever it was, it must have had something to do with why she was class marshal her junior year and chief marshal her senior year, though he couldn ' t know about the friendly smile and willing ear she lends to any gathering, whether hen session, or big party. Somehow, along the line, this lady of charm was not behind the door when the grey matter was served, nor was she too shy to have some. Her senior year she was business manager of the Miscellany and a member of the International Relations Club. To finish a well-rounded college career, she was attendant to the Mav Oueen. Si THE BLUESTOCKIHG JANE MARILYN VREELAND I ' atersun. Xew Jersey Candidate for Bachelor of .Irts Degree EnglisJi Janie has most definitely proved that her interest lies in dramatics and has been a faithful supporter of that department. She joined the Dramatic Club as a sophomore and never deserted it, this year being the president and a mem- ber of the Presidents ' Forum. We shall really be disappointed if we never see Janie ' s name in lights ! 54 VIRGINIA WORTHINGTON WARNER Staunton, Virginia Candidate for Bachelor of Arts Degree English Three bangs and a bump down the day students ' steps and our generally proclaimed wit bows in with the Shuffle off to Buff ' alo. Her cheerful dis- position combined with endless vitality never fails to give us a boost, even on blue Monday ! ! Wherever you find Worth, you ' ll find laughs and plenty of them. As if she didn ' t contribute enough for our general contentment, she has definitly shared her talent with more constructive work on the publications. Last year Worth was the assistant business manager of Campus Comments and this year she has done a wonderful job as business manager of the Miscellany. To add that we will miss her is too obvious to mention. THE BLUEST OCKIHG DORICE MAE WATERS Staunton, ' irginia Candidate for Bachelor of Arts Degree Music Dorice, of the willing hands, always ready to help when she was needed. Her sophomore and junior years she was a member of the Day Student Qub, and became vice-president her senior year. Her junior and senior year she was a welcome addition to the Glee Club. 56 ALICE PARKER WILSON Greenfield, Ohio Candidate for Bachelor of Arts Degree Speech Words are supposed to describe this versatile individual? Incredible. Just for a start, we might say that one thing she has done all four years is to be a member of the Dramatic Club. She was in one play her freshman year, two her second and third years. She has consistently been an otficer, class treasurer first, class president second, junior house president of the Sub, otherwise known as Chapel, and finally copped high honors with the presidency of the Student Body, with this, of course, making her a member of the Executive Board, of the Pres ' idents ' Forum, and of the YWCA Cabinet. This was her second time on the Executive Board, since she served on it her junior year. Her freshman year, she was in the May Day pageant, her sophomore year she had solo ballet parts in it, and swam in both ' the swimming meet and the water pageant. No wonder she was elected to Who ' s Who in American Colleges and Universities. 57 THE BLUEST OCKIHG MARY JANE WRIGHT Chevy Chase, Maryland Candidate for Bachelor of Arts Degree Psvcholoi v After we finished wondering why anyone would transfer from a university, we began to appreciate Mickey. The gal could entertain for hours at the Music Building, doing the Habanera dance from Carmen and singing it too. Fruit and cereal ! Maybe it was French words and the Spanish atmosphere that did it, but both those clubs had her membership. The Glee Club was abetted by her in her junior year, and the social committee her senior year. When March came in like a lion, Mickey came back from the fur north with a bit of ice set in platinum and told us she wasn ' t surprised but hadn ' t told any- one because He didn ' t want her to ! Marvel of marvels, a woman who could keep quiet. Surely a case for the psych department, where she was lab assistant.

THE BLUESTOCKIHG MARY KING June 16, 1928— October 21, 1946 At three o ' clock on the afternoon of October 21, 1 40, u laxi-cali conveying Mary Baldwin College students from the athletic field to the college cani|ins was struck at the corner of Point and New Streets liy a private vehicle. In this accident, Mary King of Corinth, Missis- sippi, a member of the freshman class, lost her life. Mary was born in Corinth, the youngest of four children. During the school years there Afary had many friends, both boys and girls. It was easy for her to participate in organized group life, and she belongccS to the C. A. K., the Girl Reserves, the Corinth Junior Music Club, and the hi ;h school liand. At Mary Baldwin, Mary joined the fresliman chorus, the Music and Art ( Inlis. She was tdso goirg out for the hockey team and ]ilanning to try for the Swimming Club. Comments from ti achrrs and nei.uhbors at ' .he time of her application to enter Mary Baldwin reveal her as an industrious, intelligent, and well adjusted girl. Mary had not been absent from Sunday School in eight years. Later when Mary came to college she joined a class at Staunton ' s First Presbyterian Church. Mary ' s religious interest was always strong and became deeper as she grew older. Her intelligence quotient showed that she was well above average in mental ability. This was further indicated by her high school record. In English, Latin, history, jdane geometry and general science, her performance was consistently on the .-V level. During her five weeks of college life she was meeting requirements satisfactorily, and in her last letter home mentioned an English grade of 96 on a test. As a result of a placement test in English she had been put into a section for specially qualified freshmen. In the college chai)el the next morning a memorial service was held for Mary. .■Mtbcjugh she had been at Mary Baldwin only six weeks, she was known liy many and kncd by all who knew her. It can well be said of her: Non Nor kn ■ii ' tlirr hill to lore Hire cd Ihcc but to l raisc. 84 Book Three Activities THE BLUESTOCKIHG ALICE WILSON Prcsidoit THE STUDENT GOVERNMENT ASSOCIATION The Mary Baldwin Honor System is one of the phases of college life of which we are exceedingly proud. Our honor system is based on a high plane of living since we consider it each girl ' s individual responsibility to strive for the best. When a student enters Mary Baldwin, she accepts this code of honor and endeavors to give it prominence in the molding of her life. Combined with and adding greatly to our honor system is the Student Government Association, which enables us to learn the many phases of self- governing. In our association we choo.se a Student Council which unites the executive, judicial, and legislative factions. This type of organization also facilitates harmony between students and faculty. Because of this type of self-governing system each student feels her in- dividual responsibility, and in availing herself of this added opportunity she enhances the fullness of her life. When she leaves college after having this guidance, she is more capable of accepting her place in the world, since she has acquired an even greater desire for high ideals. Thus we are deeply indebted to Mary Baldwin for schooling us in this type of enlightened life. 86 Top Row : Nancy Deacon, Elinor Weathersby, Cynthia Belts, Miriam Buckles Second Row : Bunny Armistead, Margaret Churchman, Flo Harris, Anne Early, Nancy Gill Third Row : Martha Ross, Bebe Anderson, B.

Membership is not compulsory. A genuine interest in the Y.W.C.A. activities is the only prerequisite. This organization stresses personal and spiritual development, with emphasis upon student participation in all projects. The work of the Y.WC.A. is headed by the Cabinet, members of which are selected by the president of the organization and the student body. A faculty advisoiy board and Miss Mary E. Lakenan, our sponsor, advance adult council. Members of the advisory board are: Dr. Ruth McNeil, Miss Emma Holman, Miss Elizabeth Parker, Miss Emma Harned, and Mrs. Martha S. Grafton. The new year on campus officially begins in the early fall with the Candlelight Sen-ice in the Chapel and on the front terrace. It is a recognition service for all the old and new members. The previous year ' s activities are renewed at once, and new projects lift their heads. Weekly visits to the girls of the V.S.D.B., frequent calls at the Betty I ' ickle Home, Halloween parties, special vesper services, such as Thanksgiving, Christmas, and Easter, are only a few of the traditional activities. Some of the more recent enteiprises are: A scholarship fund for a Por- tuguese girl at the Agnes Erskine School in Brazil, a scholarship fund for James Miller who is planning to enter Fiske University, and the organization of a Freshman Y.W.C.A. Cabinet. The purpose of this Cabinet is to enable the freshmen class to become better acquainted with ' .W. activities and to prcjmote fellowship among class members. Not only are our interests nation wide, but they are also world wide. A World Student Sen-ice Fund drive was put on by the entire student bodv, and clothing was collected from the students to send overseas to war-torn countries. There are abundant opportunities for Christian service on our campus. The Y.W.C.A. is a challenge to any student to let his light so shine among men that they may see his good works and glorif - his Father which is in Heaven. (The Y.W.C.A. motto).

The purpose of tlie club has always been to en- courage participation in dramatic activities, to afford training in the principles of the drama, to provide entertainment through the presentation of dramatic literature, and to teach appreciation of the various forms of dramatic art. The club holds monthly meetings at which the programs consist of dramatic entertainment and discussions. The traditional public appearances of the club members have been in a fall and a spring play ; those members not having an act ing part help backstage. The first week-end in 1 )ecember we gave Junior Miss by Sally Benson, which was presented under the direction of Miss Irma Stockwell, the sponsor of the Curtain Callers. BIOLOGY CLUB VIRGINIA GUTHRIE President -MFRCER PENDLETON Secretary MARY LILLY Treasurer The purpose of the Biology Club is to give all students who are interested in any phase of this science a chance to jiromote their understanding and appreciation of it mainly through nature trips, hikes, movies, and discussions which are held throughout the year. The only requirement for membership is that the student have an interest in biology; it is not required that she should be taking a biological science.

For the past two years this club has supported the French war orphan who Was adopted in 1944 and this year is plaiming to send two delegates to the l.R.C. conference which will be comjiosed of representatives from all the .Southern states. 92 ALGERON SYDNEY SULLIVAN AWARD The New York Southern Societ}-, in order to perpetuate the memory of Al- gernon Sydney Sullivan, through whose efforts the Society was founded, in such a form that shall be most expressive of his character, established an award to be made in certain Southern colleges, to one member of the graduating class of each institution selected. Each school may present this award to another person, not a member of the student body, in whom accomplishment and service are outstanding, and who shall have some interest in, association with, or relation to said institution. At the 1946 Commencement this award was presented to: Dr. L. Wilson Jarman, President, Emeritus, who was the active President of the College 1929- 1945 ; and to Anne Armstrong of Staunton, Virginia, a member of the 1946 graduating class. Dr. L. Wilson J- rman Anne Armstrong 97 THE BLUEST OCKIHG MUCH ADO .IJ:UUT XUTHJXG THE BARTER THEATRE PLAYERS Tlif world lanious Barter Thealrc of Virginia, the first state theatre in America, is a tar cry from the depression inspired experiment that Robert Porterfield launched with a hope and a string bean at Abingdon in 1933. That was the year that Porterfield led twenty-t wo hungry and unemployed fellow actors from the inhospitable sidewalks of Broadway to the warm hills of his native Virginia High- lands. They opened in the old Abingdon municipal auditorium, popularly called The 01 ' Opera House (built in 1830) the night of June 10 to a full house and a box office that resembled the corner green grocery. Thus was born the first playhouse to function on the produce exchange basis. They presented seven plays that season, two performances each week in - bingdon and three in neighboring communities. They begged and borrowed all equipment, kitchen utensils, chinaware, table silver, tools, stage properties and everything they needed for residence and theatre. New York producers gave stage equipment and the cast-oflf set from a Rose Marie road com|iany. Bob bou.sjht nothing fur the simple reason that his total capital upon arrixal in .Vbingdon was one dollar. All the world knows now that Porterfield opened his theatre on the basis of barter — thirty- five cents in cash or the equivalent in victuals. Eighty-five percent of the patrons paid in produce that year. Each succeeding season, as prosperity returned, the proportion of produce decreased and the cash intake increased until this year hardly more than ten or fifteen per cent of the revenue is barter and rao.st of that goes to the Barter Residence kitchen to be turned in for box office credit slips. Bob operated from 1933 to 1942, inclusive, then closed dow ' n when he donned Uncle Sam ' s USAAF uniform. He was discharged in the fall of 1945, sojourned in Hollywood long enough to appear in The Yearling with Gregory Peck, one of the prize Barter graduates, then re- turned to Abingdon. There he decided to make another attempt w ' ith Barter ; he interested civic leaders who moved upon Richmond and the ' irginia C nscrvation Commission with a plea for art ap- propriation and what he received was a starter and an endorsement. More important, it meant the formal adoption of Barter as the State Theatre of X ' irginia, another significant, pioneer step by the Old Dominion. The funds raised in the summer of 1946 made it possible for Porterfield to change his summer company into a year-round enterprise and to tour the state, taking the best of pro- fessional drama — all his company were recruited in New York — to all the people of the Com- monw-ealth of ' irgina. The Mary Baldwin .-Xlumnae . ' ssociation, in order to add to its sum for the New Dormi- tory Fund and to bring delightful entertainment to the college girls and the people of Staun- ton, sponsored the Barter Theatre Players here this fall. Five performances were given over a period of four weeks, each more enjoyable than its predecessor. 98 1. I ' liii at llic Clul) 5.

It is with this thought in mind that the editor and members of the Blue- stocking Staflf endeavor each year to present within these pages familiar campus scenes, the school leaders, and the entire student body along with the members of the faculty and staff. The Bluestocking Staff is composed of the editor and business manager who are chosen in the spring elections from the oncoming junior class by the student body and of several other members who are appointed by the editor. Without the careful guidance of Miss Fannie, however, the Bluestocking could never be a successful nor complete publication. It is our sincere hope that we have presented to the class of 1947 and to every- one who is associated with Mary Baldwin this year, a n annual which has a signi- ficant meaning to each of them and that it is one of which they will always be proud. 101 THE BLUESTOCKIHG CAMPUS COMMENTS MARY GRAVES KXOWLES Editor ellp:n eskridge Btisiiirss Mamiijcr 102 THE STAFF First Row: Mary Sue Grosso, Charlotte Maurcr, Tray ' ance, Margaret Clarke Second Row: Dorothy McNeil, Betty Irhy, Marjorie Brown, Mary Graves Knowles MARY SUE GROSSO Associate Editor CHARLOTTE MAURER Literary Editor (first semester) MARjORIK BROWN Literary Editor (second semester) TRAY AXCE Assistant Business Manager MARGARET CLARKE Exchange Editor DOROTHY McXEIL Art Editor LYLE IR TNE Assistant Art Editor MARY GRAX ' ES KNOWLES Staff Writer EMILY OGBURX Staff Writer (second semester) Our magazine, Tlw Miscellany, is rather characteristic of its name, in that it is cotiiposed of a selection of the literary and aitistic effects of those interested in contributing W e don ' t endeavor to compete with university magazines as the gap between the two is as wide as that between the two types of schools, but we do try to give a representative view of the tastes of the students here. Each issue has a theme which is carried out in the cover design, the introduc- tion, the fashion notes, and usually in some of the poetry, prose and illustrations. By means of this theme we try to tie the varying constituents of the magazine into a complete unit with a common purpose — that of offering the readers sketches of life as conceived bv the students at Alarv Baldwin. 105 THE BLUESTDCKIHG 1.

The athletic program began the first Saturday of the school year with an open Sports Day featuring many types of recreation. The official opening of the Association, however, was the athletic picnic on the second Saturday with the class and faculty skits and facultv ' -student Softball game. Hockey as usual was the leading sport of the fall and again the school became a member of the Virginia Field Hockey Association; this season was climaxed by the championship game won by the seniors and followed by a picnic. The next major sport was swimming which con- cluded in the meet on December 14. The limelight this time was focused upon the freshmen who not only provided the individual high scorer but won the meet as well. The pageant, sponsored by the Swimming Club, under the direction of Miss McCuUoch, is being planned for the spring as usual. Basketball as always reigned for the winter months. After the dormitory finals at which the plaque will be presented, the tournaments will end, although the season will not be over officially until the faculty-senior game. Softball during the spring will conclude the major sports. The minor sports are steadily increasing in both popularity and importance. For the early risers breakfast hikes have been given ; bowling called out a good-sized following on Saturday mornings and golf at Ingleside was available to all. The tennis, badminton, ping- pong, and archery tournaments in the spring are followed by the May Day dance recital at which time the dancers display how profitable has been the time and practice devoted to that particular phase of the program. In accordance with a custom started last year, school blazers were sold to the students by the . thletic Association. For the first time in many years a student delegate was sent to the A.F.C.W. conference and for the first time in its history the members of the Council instituted a spring and fall retreat. Also an innovation was the formation of a Modern Dance Club. This then has been this organization ' s purpose for the year — not only to complete the well rounded college students ' program but to reach every girl as often as possible and by doing so give her the benefits, moral, physical, and social, offered by her participation in these recreational activities. 108 ATHLETIC COUNCIL .

Hamilton, Adrian Heim Third Row : Lil Richardson, Lee Dorcmus, Marian Scitz Hockey officially opens the athletic season witli the tiist crack of the hockey sticks. Enthusiasm is shown by the inexperienced freshmen as well as by the seasoned upperclassmen. The gym classes provide full instruction for those un- familiar with the game. The high point of the hockey season comes with class team competition. Thj senior class took first place and the hockey cup this year with the freshman class close behind. The varsity team in hockey is chosen, by the hockey sport leader and the class captains with the assistance of Miss Foster, from those who participated in the class contest. They must exhibit skill, sportsmanship, improveinent and an interest in the game. 110 SOFT BALL X ' aksjtv Team From Row (left to right) : Betty lane Hamilton, ISininy Armistead, Miriam Buckles Second Row ; irge Baglcy, Mary Helen Story, Margie Runge, Be.sy Lankford, Marian Seitz Softball has grown to be classitied as a major sp vrt of iho season. 1 he Faculty-Student game is an outstanding feature of the Athletic Association picnic which takes place early in the school year. Another opportunity to play Softball is presented on -Apple Day after most have had their fill of tree climbing and apple picking. With the cfiining of spring, interest in Softball is high and it is entered with great vim and vigor. The class teams are organized with intramural games being played in Ma v. Many come out to support their teams from the sidelines. The varsity team is chosen from the class teams of those w ' .io show outstand- ing ability, skill, interest, and sportsmanship. The class Softball cup is awarded to the champions at the annual Athletic Association banquet in the spring. Ill THE BLUEST OCKIHG BASKETBALL TEAM CAPTAINS (Left to Right) : Amie Trask, Betty Owen, Terry True, Marian Seitz, Virge Bagley, Rosie Hutson, Miriam Buckles, Lil Richardson, and Lee Doremus Basketball is the major winter sport on the campus. Instruction is given in the gym classes. Great spirit and enthusiasm are shown with the organizing of dormitory teams. Pep rallies are common in the dorms on the night before a big game with cheerleaders wearing their team colors. The dormitories are or- ganized into two leagues. The Big League is composed of the five larger dormi- tory teams while the Little League consists of the smaller dormitory teams and the day student team. All are eager to see the plaque hung in their hall. Later comes the class tournament, topped with the awarding of the class cup. The season is brought to a close with the traditional and favorite game of the faculty and seniors. 112 SWIMMING Varsity Team Left to Right: Johanna ' an Brunt, Peggy Reid, Jo Moore, and Peewee Kinser Swimming is one of the sports enjoyed the year ' round. Instructions are given in class. All strive to promote swimming as a recreation and to raise the level of skill. The Red Cross helps to advance water safety by sending an instructor to conduct classes for a period of time in the late winter months. The annual swimming meet takes place in the fall and provides great competi- tion for the class championship cup. The individual cup award is a center of attention and is determined by the highest individual scoring in the meet. The en- trees are judged on form, speed, diving skill, and also racing. The water pageant is the high light of the season. It aims to promote skillful, graceful acquatic feats and pleasure for those who enjoy swimming. The swimming varsity is chosen by the swimming sport leader, the class captains, president of the Athletic Association and Miss Foster. The varsity is selected from those participants in the swimming meet of the fall. 113 POOL Pool is one of the games that will never die on the campus. The table near the post office is the center of interest between classes and meals, and while waiting for the mail to go up. The faculty-student games com- pete in interest with those pool games of the girls and their dates on Saturday- in the gym. We were visited this year by Mr. C. C. Peterson in March to demon- strate his trick shots. MINOR BOWLING Bowling has been increased in popularity this year. Groups go down to the Y on .Saturday mornings, rain, shine, or snow, for their regular fling at the game. The game is especially popular during the examination week. However, a tournament is held in the late winter months with an award going to the indi- vidual with the highest score for the season. BADMINTON F)adminton comes during those dark, dreary months of winter. A tournament is held in the late winter consisting of singles as well as doubles. All watch the change made of the badminton ladder. There are trophy awards for both badminton singles and badminton doubles which pro- vides great individual sport com- petition. TENNIS The interest in tennis is al- ways augmented by the coming of sunshine and spring. Instruc- tion is given in class for those who want to know the why and wherefores of the game. Of all the individual tournaments the tennis contest is perhaps the most anticipated and e.xciting. The weather may have some influence but interest is always high. The tennis championship cup of the spring tournament is one of the chief awards at the Athletic As- sociation banquet near the close of school. SPORTS PING PONG Ping pong is an ever popular game with all. It runs from the opening of the school year until the close of the doors in June. This season can boast of a tournament of singles and doub- les. The champion of the year is awarded a trophy at the Ath- letic Association banquet in the spring. MODERN DANCE The modern dance grouj) has been more active this year. More interest is being shown in an oi)portunity to create and to exhibit self-e.xpression through the medium of movement. . Modern Dance Club is being formed which will be cf)mposed of those who desire to do work in advanced composition. The season is brought to a close with the gay notes f)f our memorable May Day Dances on the front terrace. GOLF Golf is strictly a seasonal game. It is played in the fall and then with renewed vigor in the spring. The Ingleside golf course provides a scenic op- portunity for the game. Perhaps since the golf ball shortage has been somewhat relieved interest will rise again. Spring tourna- ments with individual and class coinpetition may also be an as- set to the Athletic Association program. ARCHERY Archery is practically a year ' round sport with the exception :, of the coldest winter months. Instruction is given in class con- centrating on the six points for good form. The year is climaxed by the archery tournament in the spring. The winner of the con- test is presnted a trophy at the Athletic Association banquet which is held near the end of the school year. THE BLUEST OCKIHG MONOGRAM CLUB MARY ANN THACKSTON Prcsidcnl BETTY RARNETT ricc-P resident IVIARIUX SEITZ Sccrctarx-Trcasurcr The Monogram Club is composed of students who have earned and re- ceived a college monogram from the Athletic Association. They work for the welfare of the college and the Atheltic Association. The award cannot be made before the end of a student ' s second year at Mary Baldwin College. A student, to be eligible, must have consistently repre- sented her class and dormitory in athletic projects and must have worked to spread interest in these activities. The prospective member must have been a member of fi e class or dormitory teams representing at least three different sports. She is re- quired to have contributed to the Athletic Association other than merely playing on teams. She must show an effort to improve and have sports- manlike conduct in all college activities.

The purpose of the club is to promote aquatic skills as well as to gather together those who love the sport. The club sponsors two major annual functions. Before the Christmas holidays comes the inter-class swimming meet with screams of encourage- ment from the spectators adding to the gaity of the competition. The second major event, the water pageant, is given in the spring. The themes of the pageants shift from hula dancers and sunken treasures to graceful exhibits of form and tandem swimming. Activities such as these are a major contribution to the e-xtra-curricular program of the college.
