MRS. CHARLES LAKE BUSHNELL DEAN OF WOMEN s 3? EVER forget that you are stewards of your own Time — the sole keeper of each never-returning second. Budget that Time assiduously. Give over some of it to recreation, some to work, some to an affiliation with worthy efforts or projects in College or community. Give some of that Time to making friends, much to reading good hooks across whose pages stride noble and challenging characters. Let wholesome humor make for clarifying laughter. Hold in high esteem all that is refined; give reverence where reverence is due; let the warmth of your compassion for those who suffer he like an eternal vestal fire. Never cease to be grateful for the goodness and the abundance of life; salute truth and honesty as constant companions on the way. Your Time so budgeted will make for a rainbow invisible whose colors will be incomparably more beautiful than those athwart the summer ' s sky in that your rainbow will have been — lived. N.

It is with a feeling of great satisfaction that the Commission thinks of its accomplished aim in bringing the Freshman Class and Y. W. C. A. closer together. During the entire year this organization has been active, and it is difficult to think of Com- mission without thinking of the doll show presented by them, in connection with the Freshman Class at Christmas. After the entire school had enjoyed the scenes portrayed by the dolls, the toys were given to children in the community.

During the year the club made a special survey of the various products sent out from Fredericks- burg to the foreign nations of the world in order to real- ize the close relationship that one country bears to an- other. Under the sponsorship of the club many im- portant speakers are brought to our college throughout the year to discuss international current problems. TWE eATTLCriCLD LEADERS CLUB The Leaders Club is composed of the heads of the various organizations on the campus. Through their leaders all of the clubs are represented in this group and indirectly have a part in solving problems that concern the welfare of the entire student body.

Threefold were the aims and accomplishments of the club this year. First, to bring before the members, speakers and varied programs dealing with the successful outcomes of a business career; second, to present to the membership an opportunity of taking sponsored trips to the nearby large commercial centers. Lastly, it has been the aim of the Commercial Club to organize a chapter of Pi Omega Pi, honorary Commercial fraternity, here at Fredericksburg. This aim was accomplished this year and the fraternity will become active in the ' 3 5- ' 36 school session. Entertainment for the club members was carried out in the form of a banquet, a fashion show benefit and programs of a like nature.

Each one of them was filled with wonder and curiosity. These emotions were intermingled with feelings of pride, homesickness, in- dependence, and a self-sufficiency to meet every situation of this new life. After registering and enrolling, each girl reported to her appointed room to meet the girls with whom she was to room during the school term. The first days of being away from home were filled with excitement. Though we were hungry, we could not eat. We sat and gazed at the many girls around us, all of whom were talking excitedly between every bite. When the first covering began to wear off, the Y. W. C. A. spurred us on by giving a kid party. Our big sisters proudly escorted us to the party where we danced and ate and paraded in the grand march in our abbreviated costumes. As time went on, we settled down to a daily routine of classes, meals, chapels, con- vocations, visits to town, the postoffice, and extra-curricular activities, and managed to make our presence felt by the upper classmen. In the Y. W. benefit, Dulcy, several freshmen walked off with the star roles. Three nights of freshmen training by Student Council girls, were held to acquaint would-be erring ones with the rules and regulations concerning all goin ' s and comin ' s. When November finally rolled around, we fell heir to what was known as freshman privileges. Immediately we began to exercise our new freedom by organizing as an active and strong unit with Mary Kettenbeck as our leader. To assist her, we selected Elizabeth Trimble, Edith Weeks, and Lillian Boswell, as vice-president, secretary, and treasurer, respectively. We also chose Florence Massie and Helen Pressley as our rep- resentatives on the Student Council. A commission of eighteen members to work under the Y. W. had already been selected. Down through the weeks, the class, almost as a whole, turned out to plays, dances, benefits, shows, and receptions. During February, the class played hostess to the members of the Junior Class at a cleverly and delightfully arranged dance. When the benefit was presented, the freshmen displayed their skill as artists, play wrights, actors, and actresses, and producers. Then the most interesting feature of the year presented itself. The freshmen began to work on the perennial daisy chain. So many, many daisies filled every available inch of the campus that we actually dreamed that daisies were something necessary to life and love. But after many hours of work which resulted in blistered fingers, sore bodies, and tired eyes, we looked upon something beautiful and magnificent. We were justly proud of ourselves. And as time brings around the close of our year as freshmen, we look ahead with an air of suppressed excitement. We are to be sophomores — old girls of S. T. C. But as we review the moments of joy and sorrow we have shared, we cannot help but feel just a little sad that we are no longer the babies on the hill. The year has given us a deeper knowledge of community life, an appreciation for other people, and a deeper sense of awareness of things beautiful and things humorous. We love S. T. C. for all she means to us and has given to us and will always strive to repay her in a small measure for all the benefits we have enjoyed from her.

VIRGINIA JOSEPHINE ZAPPULLA PETERSBURG, VIRGINIA THE eATTLEPIELD SOPHOMORE HISTORY Y ZE, the class of ' 37 made our debut on the campus of F. S. T. C. in the Fall ' ' of 1933. In those first days of adjustment, when we experienced those well-known pangs of homesickness, our big sisters did much toward helping us make S. T. C. our home. We spent our first Friday night at the Kid party which was given for us by Y. W. What kids we were as we made our appearance that night in short dresses, rompers and hair ribbons, with a doll in each arm. Time passed quickly, and it was soon time to elect our class officers and repre- sentatives to Council. Mary Grey Dickenson, Ann Lipscomb, Mae Smith, and Nell Rose were elected as our class officers, while Jack Clarke and Virginia Palmer were chosen to represent us in Student Government. Miss McKenzie, chosen as our sponsor, in helping with our every project and aim, made our presence as a class unit more widely felt on the campus. At Christmas time by cooperating with Freshman Commission in presenting their annual doll show, we did our share in spreading the Christmas spirit on the hill. Next came our benefit, which was in the form of a cabaret dance. Described as unique and clever, it was long remembered with thoughts of a pleasant time had by all. Before we could realize it, the day had arrived to make the daisy chain. It was finished at 10:30 on the last night before class day. How proud we were of the daisy chain as we raised it upon the shoulders of the Sophomores. Suddenly, a little sadness was mingled with our joy as we said farewell to our classmates at commencement. Sadness at the thought of parting with dear friends and acquaintances who would be with us no longer. But it was with joyous hearts that we turned homeward — having made history of our first year at college. After a glorious vacation, we returned to S. T. C. ready to start again under the leadership of Jack Clarke, our president. Again we entered into the spirit of college life, this time minus that feeling of homesickness that was so characteristic of us as Freshmen. We gave our benefit, which attracted almost the entire student body. The days passed quickly for us, busy with a new and more keenly felt respon- sibility toward our work, until that day in June when the Freshmen raised that much worked over daisy chain upon our shoulders — what feelings of pride swelled . within us as we carried the beautiful chain in the class day exercises. In a few days, we again, will feel that little sadness tugging at our hearts at the thought of parting with our old and newly made friends. It is with a sigh of resignation that we realize that our farewell with some of our valued friends must be a final one. But, we who return in September, will carry on toward that four- year goal which now is only two years in the distance.

WHITEHEAD CLIFTON FORGE, VIRGIKIA LOVINGSTON, VIRGINIA VIVIAN WOODWARD PORTSMOUTH, VIRGINIA THE eATTLCFIELD THE JUNIOR CLASS HISTORY AN it be that only three years ago the present Juniors were little green freshies! We came to college considering ourselves the grandest things that had ever entered F. S. T. C, but before Thanksgiving we had learned that people here, rather than being interested in what we had done in ye dere ole high school were wondering what we would do at Fredericksburg. Our first year was of necessity a period of readjustment and adapta- tion, but it will long be remembered both for its tears and its laughter. The tears were due to homesickness, empty mail boxes and the absence of A ' s , while the laughter came naturally with the making of new friends, the presentation of our benefit, The Little Green Hat, and the never-to- be-forgotten daisy chain. The connecting link was our sophomore year. Members of our class began to take a more active part in the organizations on the hill; upper classmen paid more attention to our opinions; and, even two of the six most outstanding girls on the campus were elected from our group. The tears this year came when about half of the sophomore class finished their work at F. S. T. C. and left college to become teachers. Is it possible that we are Juniors and that the lower classmen are look- ing at us with a feeling of awe similar to that we had for the class of ' 34? To say the least, we are proud that the president, the secretary, and the treasurer of Student Council, the editor of the Battlefield, the business manager of The Bullet, the president and the vice-president of the Y. W. C. A., the house president of Virginia Hall, the May Queen and the Maid of Honor, to say nothing of a majority of the third degree members of Alpha Phi Sigma, are all Juniors! No history of this Junior Class would be complete without some men- tion of our sponsor, Dr. C. G. G. Moss, and that not-to-be-overlooked min- strel. Here ' s to the Seniors of 1936, may they get as much out of hfe in the future as they have during the past three years! Olivia Wheeler.

Over two hundred we numbered, two hundred and forty-one nervous, silly, awed, scared, homesick, susceptible Freshmen. We looked the picture as we rolled up to the flag walk. It took us hours to register that first day, it was hot, we didn ' t know anyone, the school was very stately and forbidding looking, we almost wanted to go home — some did. As night drew on, the heat subsided; friendly girls showed us the ' way to the dining hall, and because of that one building alone, most of us were glad that we were Fredericksburg girls. Seacobeck ! It was so new and beautiful, the prettiest in the state they told us. We danced a little while after dinner in the so-called club room which has since been converted into lovely Virginia Hall parlors. It was fun, we began to like each other — someone said go get your linen if you want to sleep tonight — there was a mad rush for Frances Willard, 10:45, we could scarcely realize that that bell would send us scurrying to our rooms for nine months — light bell, and ihe Freshman class of 1931, the Senior class of 1935, to its first night on the Hill. The year passed quickly, nothing particularly spectacular happened except that the Devils won the cup. We elected class officers in November. Marie Krafft, Herbert Webb and Mallory Hufty served in the capacity of president, vice-president, and secretary-treasurer respectively. Council representatives were Kitty Luke and Virginia Thomas. Some of us went out for hockey, basketball and baseball teams, made them and felt like we were carrying the school on our shoulders; some of us went to the German Club dance in December and felt — oh — so collegiate; some of us made Alpha Phi Sigma and felt like Socrates, Plato and Aristotle rolled in one, and some of us who were in the commencement play felt as though Ethel Barry- more herself could have done no better. We finished the daisy chain in record time, sat humbly through commencement exercises and told our friends goodby until next September. And suddenly the summer was over, we were back on the Hill well on our second year, as sophomores. The most important sophomore office v ' as filled that year when Mamie Easier was elected president of the class. Darnum and Daily Circus, the Sophomore benefit, proved our biggest thrill, because it was one of the most successful entertainments ever presented by any class at Fredericksburg. May Day — who doesn ' t remember Old Mother Hubbard and her children, and Sammie as Queen of the May? The Dark Town Strutters Final Strut — moving up day and we were Juniors! Our members had dwindled when school reopened in 1933. Many had received their normal professionals the past June and some just didn ' t come back. Betty Griffith presided at the first Junior meeting while we elected other officers. Our biggest job as Juniors, besides giving a benefit, Crazy to Reduce, which was very successful, was entertaining for the Seniors at the Junior-Senior Prom. The affair was held on the roof garden, and proudly did we escort our Senior partners to that, our final tribute to the upper classmen. Several weeks , later we re- ceived our first Senior earmarks, the class ring. Proudly we awaited for the 1934-35 session to open our last year. The Senior year is filled with the usual amount of joy and sorrow. This year we are the ones to wear the cap and gown ; this year we are the ones to be entertained at the prom ; this year we shall attend the final Senior breakfast and party ; this year we are the ones to receive the much longed for diploma. This year we are the ones who shall shed real tears, when we tell friends we have made during four years of preparation for the outside world — goodby — when we shall bid our Alma Mater a last farewell.

It is noted for its large membership and its spirit of good fellowship, good health and good sport. The years at college would not be complete without participation in some of the many activities sponsored by this Association.

Six girls, because of their contributions to the College, were elected as the most outstanding girls in school. Because of their beauty and attractive personalities, the May Queen and her Maid of Honor were chosen. However, not only are the girls honored, — we also proudly show our new buildings during their construction, snapshots of the more informal side of school life, and various scenes from last year.
