There is no theme ; it is for you to supply your own. It is your story, for you to interpret as you will. We set the background — for just as every play must have its scene, so every story must have its setting. We offer you as background for your story the buildings of your college — the buildings in which you work, and play, and dream of things beyond their walls — of what the future years will bring. It has been a privilege to make this book for you. In return, we ask but one thing of you who will read it. Make it a personal book — read yourself into it. Whether it be today, or twenty years from now, if you read, and remember, and see in retrospect some small part of your years of life, we will not have worked in vain.

And after that the dark! And may there be no sadness or farewell. When I embark: But such a tide as, moving, seems asleep. For though from out our bourne of Time and place Too full for sound and foam — The flood may bear me far — hen that ivhich dreiv from out the boundless deep I hope to see my Pilot face to face Turns again home.

Membersinip is lim- ited to seventy members who are selected by the director after a private audition. In select- ing members the following requirements are considered: voice quality, singing ability, gen- eral musicianship, responsibility, and per- sonality. An intensi ' e study is made of the best sa- cred and secular works, covering a wide va- riety of styles. Each spring one fine sacred program is presented. The Glee Club Christ- mas Carol program is one of the outstanding events of the College year. Members are given the opportunity of doing work with the large group, solo work, and small ocal ensembles. Joint concerts will be given during the year with two men ' s glee clubs. Programs are given each year on the campus, in some of the churches, and in the community of Fredericksburg. i- • President . . Vice-President Secretary . . Treasurer . . Sponsors . . June Stoll . .

Curtain! and another play is on its way in the great auditorium of George Washington Hall. Mary Washington ' s Players, nearly a hun- dred in number, to whom the smell of water paint is as sweet as the smell of grease paint; to whom the sound of hammer and saw is as exciting as the sound of an overture. Demo- cratic? Yes — Strike! means only to clear the stage — faculty members and students alike are labor, and the public alone is capital. Public acclaim is good, but other things linger longer in the hearts of the Mary Wash- ington Players. They will remember best themselves wearing coveralls, slapping paint on flats . . . last-minute line cramming . . .

Thus has Eta Eta chapter of the national honorary dramatic fraternity increased its membership to twenty-five, including both faculty members and students.

What would station WFVA be without Johnny Autry What would Mary Washing- ton College be without Mr. Ronald Faulkner and his Dance Orchestra The fact is, Mary Washington just couldn ' t exist without this happy-go-lucky double sex- tet of musicians. Ready, willing, and able might well be their motto, and their fame is not restricted within the immediate boun- daries of the college either. They hear rhapsodies. What is more, they play them. With Frenezi through Night and Day on Blueberry Hill — whether the occasion be for Shadows on the Sand or for a Handful of Stars, or even for plain Eloise — the Dance Orchestra is always Mv Buddy ! 58 Symphony Orchestra Mr. Ronald W. 1- ' aulkner, Director JVIary Washington College is proud of its orchestra, for it is one of the leading musical organizations on the hill. Its success may be attributed largely to its director, Mr. Ronald W. Faulkner who has also done much to en- large the membership over the first college orchestra of a few years ago. During this age of modern music, the clas- sical orchestra presents the music of the great master musicians, and for that reason the members of the orchestra are all ad anced students in instrumental music. Their inter- est is twofold, for they not only derive the valuable experience of orchestral work, but in addition they learn the grandeur of the clas- sical music of past ages. The symphonic orchestra presents formal concerts, plays at chapel, at convocation, at college plays, and at many more college and local entertainments which occur during the college year. For those who believe that all modern youth have gone jitter-bug crazy, M.W.C. ' s orchestra gives ample testimony as to the contrarv. 59 60H 1M 6tui i mfflinGTo nj p n so Miss Lillie Turman Mr. Ronald Fallkner % Jayne Waugh, President Jane Garnett, Secretary Edith Beamer, ' ice-President Lucy Dickinson, Treasurer Margaret Gilman, Parliamentarian ' tmmUrs Alyce Amory Ruth Birchett Shirley Bortner Nancy Browne Nellie Burgess Alice Burton Molly Case Ada Clement Ruth Cono ' er Mary Grace Cureton Bertha Dickinson Edith Donnan Grace Edwards Peggy Erskine Mary Currin Eskridge Elizabeth Flenniken Ann Foster Anne Givler Mary Ellen Glascock Virginia Lee Ha:elwood Miriam Hazelwood Minerva Ann Hynson Hazel Jewett Betty Randolph Jones Frances Lawson Nancy Mann Mary Drue Martin Frances Maynard Betty Morissette Josephine Reasor Jane Rocap Jean Rogers Betsy Rowe Marie Seay Ruth Seay K Iary Howard Simmons Margaret Stinneford Josephine Walker Emma Ruth Watkins Winifred Louise Watkins Virginia Westlake Dorothy Whelan Mildred Whitaker Nancy Lee Wilkinson ■- -■ ' ■ ' - «- .a f ' f Band Director ....

It is said that a girl can ' t help loving the man in a uniform. So be it, but at Mary Washing- ton, the tables are turned, ' for the men can ' t fail to be captivated by the regimented charm displayed by the thirty-odd members of the Mary Washington College marching band . . . adorned in their white boots and their snappy blue and white uniforms, topped by gay caps. First they walked; then they trudged; later they marched, and now . . . they march while they make music. Today, they are ready to challenge any goosestepping outfit that wants to take them on — and you ' d better watch out for your laurels — for. though not yet a year old, M.W.C.

Mary Helen Brosius Treasurer Frances Fisher Reporter Penelope Critzos Sponsor . Mrs. John Brawner Bolling What joy there is in meeting together when one may babble in the words of another lan- guage! At least, that is the attitude of the members of Le Cercle Frangais. It ' s surprising, too, that those who at the first meetings do no more than babble, later, become more spon- taneous in their conversations and experience that pleasing glow which accompanies the using of French words that have two, perhaps even three, syllables. Joking aside, though, the members of Le Cercle Frangais do more than chatter together ; they attempt to enrich the study of the French language itself by acquainting themselves with the fascinations of French music, the interest- ing and original character of French literature, as well as with the customs and traditions that linger in the cities and villages throughout France. From Le Cercle Frangais the girls acquire a sense of kinship, not with the stifled, crushed France of today, but with that former gayety and delicate charm so typical of the spirit of France. In the hearts of these girls, at least, the words Vive la France are immortal. Spanish Club President Mollis Pope Secretary-Treasurer . . . Mtriam Griffo Sponsor . Dr. Clifton Brooke MacIntosh Indicative of a reassuring Pan-Americanism is Mary Washington ' s newly formed Spanisii Club. Its members are students from Cuba, from the United States, from Puerto Rico. Its activities — a Spanish Christmas program; assisting students in conversational Spanish; its weekly Esquina Espagnol in the Bullet — all are directed toward the achiex ' ing and maintaining of an e en deeper fellowship between girls of the Americas. 65 OFFICERS President Jamie Redwood Vice-President Aloise Brill Secretary Nancy Brooker Treasurer Jean Adair I ' ery MEMBERS Margaret Berry Jane Bonney Jean Daugherty Nancy Derrow Zelene DesChamps Nancy Duval Rebecca Ellis Mary Jo Eley Leah Fleet Mary Georgie Gay Lindlay Goolrick Ruth Griswold Jane Haddox Annette Hodnett Donald Holden Betty Whitacre Hlnter Betsy Jean Hurt Jane Jenks Rosalie Johnson Jane Ellen Johnston Aminee Jones Roberta Kingston Lois Loehr Eleanor Yount Colors: Green and White Margaret McCulloch Patsy M cCulloch Martha Minges Virginia Morgan Julia Moseley Caroline Muirhead Marcelle O ' Shaughnessy Anne Parker Betty Parshall Mary Patton Beverly Roberts Myran Mignon Russell Mamie Stahle Margery Stickles Marguerite Unruh Mary ' oung Unruh Edna Vass Mildred Vass Lois Webber Alice Williams MeLBA WlNSLOVV Margery Wood Elizabeth Young Flower: White Rose 66 Tk Pi Sigma Kappa President Vi ian Ale Vice-President Dorothy Harrington Secretary . . .

Today granddaughter pre- pares herself to be a poised, efficient career woman by training herself in public speaking. To its members, Pi Sigma Kappa offers training in speech and opportunities to use this training in practical situations. Inter- club debates have paved the way to a success- ful season of debates with other colleges. The erse choir has delighted Mary Washington students with new interpretations of poetry. Pi Sigma Kappa members have spoken, and spoken well, in many and varied campus activities. Pi Sigma Kappas program is not confined to acti ities taking place from the rostrum or before the microphone. Picnics, banquets, and informal meetings are scenes of extemporane- ous speaking by both members and sponsors. Hobby of the club is collecting pictures and articles which illustrate proper and improper public speaking procedure. To members who have been outstanding in the club and who ha -e been of forensic service to other organi- zations, the reward is a gold Pi Sigma Kappa key. £2kir..K? t.8 F 3ranceA vVUlard J4aU yiiiJJ

Cnandler Jwall Epaulet Not words, but thoughts and the man- ner of expressing them make literature. 1 HE Epaulet, literary magazine of the col- lege, originated in November of 1940. This publication serves to stimulate interest in cre- atix ' e writing and self-expression among the members of the student body. A quarterly magazine. The Epaulet includes the original work of students in the field of the essay, of the short story, of the play, of poerty, and of art. THE STAFF Co-Editors- in-Chief [■Ilth Scarlett Katharine F.

If she does, then she surely is to be found in the Sci- ence Club to whose members cuirrent develop- ments on the science frontiers are as captivat- ing as the fashion plates of the daily newspaper. For the girl who would rather watch hydra under the microscope than thrill at Clark Gable on the screen, or for the girl who likes to do both, the Science Club extends an open- door policy.

Junior and Senior majors and minors in Eng- lish compose the club, whose monthly meetings, at which food and literary talk abound, have become Mary Washington tradition. Traditional too are the yearly tea given by the Portias for Fredericksburg literati and the formal dance for the college student body. Highlight of this year ' s activities was the trip to the Washington premiere of Twelfth Night. Modern Portias will long recall with pleasure friendly de- bates on good literature from Shakespeare to Steinbeck . . . dinner parties with Dr. Shankle as toastmaster and chief mu- sician . . . listening to the progress of Old Sisters ' . . . the first issue of The Epaulet. When a Modern Portia graudates. she retains her member- ship in the club. Whether she return, to talk with Dr. Shankle in his green-and-tan office, or whether her fellowship be only a thing of memory, she is still a Modern Portia, and she posses- ses with her sisters a lifelong heritage: the knowledge that the study of literature is fine, that it is fun. 95 International Relations Club Just as charity begins at home so international relations begin on one ' s own college campus. In the case of N4ary Washington College, the International Rela- tions Club, typical of similar organizations on other col- lege campuses and financed by the Carnegie Endow- ment, offers itself as the chief agency through which fellowship between American students and foreign stu- dents may be fostered. Because this club does fulfill this function at Mary Washington, it maintains con- siderable prestige among members of the student body. In addition to its regular meetings, the club sponsors a series of radio forums on current questions, sends rep- resentatives to several conferences, and presents a chapel and a con ' ocation program. ' V ' et, the benefits of the International Relations Club are more than ma- terial ones. Its members cannot fail to be broadened 96 in outlook and in preparation for the dip- lomatic ventures which must someday be undertaken as the task of today ' s youth. President ....

Moon- light and shadows for setting, friendliness and gayety for background, hot dogs with trim- mings for healthy appetites which do re- quire more tangible properties than those of mere atmosphere — these were features typical of all Tau Kappa Sigma ' s activities. T.K.S. s new hangout on the hill is the recreation room in Frances Willard, where piano, study and game facilities, and happy environment serve members during out-of- class but on-campus hours. Since T.K.S. this year included only perma- nent residents of Fredericksburg, the club has been rendered more compact, yet better able to maintain friendly relationships between local girls and out-of-town students. Mem- bers of Tau Kappa Sigma have found that every group may contribute to the happiness of every other club. 100 (Eett J ewii J4alL Traveling towards Turkey — November 20.

Being a democracy, Mary Washington has student government, government by the stu- dents collectively, through their elected repre- sentatives. Their representati ' es, the Council of 1 94 1, have striven to create a democratic spirit, a sense of belonging which causes every girl to take pride in the highest standards of personal honor. It is because she wants to and not because she has to that the student ac- cepts the responsibility both with regard to personal conduct and the conduct of others. Believing that democracy flourishes in the sail of friendliness, Student Council has tried to bring the students closer together to feel a spirit of unity. Toward this goal name badges were worn for the first time by the freshmen. The Formal Reception and the Election Day Dance brought Council nearer its purpose. In a year during which Democracy has been so severely challenged, Mary Washington students have been more fully aware of this priceless treasure they possess — student go - ernment. Yes, it is only a small rivet in the tremendous skyscraper of world democracy — but who can deny that it is these small ri -ets which hold the vast steel structure together Jeanette Cooper President 126 President Jeanette Cooper Vice-President Elizabeth Snow Secretary Donald Holden ' Treasurer Rlth Seav Mary Ellen Seaborn EsTELLE Whitehead Marie Seay Elsie Mae Cornwell Dormitory Presidents Frances W ' illard Hall E elyn Kerby Mary Ball Hall . . . .

Only such august per- sonages as juniors and seniors of the com- mercial education department are eligible for membership. Of those eligible, only the most deserving actually become members, for it is necessary to attain a really superior standing in all commercial subjects and average stand- ing in other studies before one is sufficiently learned for Pi Omega Pi. Of course, all members have deeply cher- ished ambitions of becoming successful career women, either in classrooms or in offices. The members of this organization should indeed be prepared to fulfill their dreams since the fra- ternity fosters interest in scholarship, in civic betterment of schools, and in high ethical standards to be observed in business and pro- fessional life.

Dr James Harney Dodd L OMMERCiAL education may be a bit on the practical side, but the members of the Alpha Chapter of Sigma Tau Chi are aware of the many and varied fields which offer opportu- nities to commercial students. The girls are aware further of the requirements of such fields which demand a well-rounded personal- ityasprerequisite. For that reason, thisorgani- zation encourages interest in affairs which are a little apart from those of actual commercial -ocations. Specialists in various fields have addressed the club, but the main emphasis is upon personality development. Receptions, banquets, picnics — these are the outcome of the belief in that old saying that all work and no play makes Jack a dull boy and Mary a dull girl. ' .

We were high school grads when we started in With bag arid baggage; new honors to win. As freshmen we were carefree and gay; Kept up with the others in some sort of way. The next step up was our old Sophomore class — But that soon passed by; and all too fast! Then, full-fledged Juniors were we. And life was no longer a meaningless spree. Our goal ivas in sight, our determination firm. To reach up. look forward, and help others to learn. We were led by Nancy Mann, our President, this year— Whose manner was pleasant, informal, sincere. In our hearts .Anne Abell will long be a resident, For she too served well, as our Vice-President. For Secretary. Marguerite Tuck ivas elected. She made up proud that she was selected. Ou r finances were heavy, our dues were all paid — To Ruth Scarlett, we know, our thanks should be laid. To advise these four girls and help all the rest. Dr. Martin, we found, was by far the best — His efforts untiring, his time alivays free — To help better the Class and our .M.W.C. We had parties galore, but we ' ll never forget The Beauty Contest — our class benefit. Then, to climax the year and make it complete — White dresses, class rings, the Prom — dancing feet. Our standards were held high as we faced each new day, Laughing and radiant, buoyant and gay; But dependable, loyal, cooperative, true — All these are the traits of the Class of ' 42. 156 Alpha Tau Pi Priisidcnl, Fail Quarter . .

If little Jimmie or small Mary comes home from school jabbering, My teacher is nice — I like her! And if teacher is a graduate of Mary Washington College, then you can wager she was a member of Alpha Tau Pi, the elementary education society on the Hill. Believing that a teacher must be, first of all, a person, this organization strives through its programs to assure for each future teacher of all the little Jimmies and Marys a well- rounded personality and high ideals of the profession in which she is engaged. A member of Alpha Tau Pi recognizes her responsibility- toward that society and toward the college she will represent afield, either as an apprentice or as a full-time teacher. Bonds of friendship formed in Alpha Tau Pi are re- membered and retained long after its members have received the sacred sheepskin. 157 Marguerite Jennings Hail to one of the largest student organiza- tions on tine Hill! Y.W. is as familiar as class cuts to every girl at M.W.C. They love Y.W. for its splendid cabinet, its worthwhile social service program, its fostering of good music, its Pop programs, its vesper, devotional, and chapel meetings, to say nothing of count- less other features. One of the latter is the annual Kid Party at which big and little sisters gather, clad in the kind of regalia that makes contest judges turn gray ! .Another such event is the Doll Show, which furnishes a good excuse for the pent-up energy of all those girls who still like to play dolls, though they ordinarily restrain themselves along that line.

Betty Carter Executive Secretary Alice Williams This year ' s big benefit was called Y s a Poppin! (Modelled after a Broadway Show of similar title.) Y.W. ' s show was judged even funnier than its prototype; the jokes were all on the colleagues of M.W.C. ! Fellowship — both social and spiritual — is the keyword with which to describe the ' .W. C.A. One means of accomplishing all that fellowship implies was furnished this year by the Religious Emphasis Week, sponsored by Y.W. Interesting and prominent speakers participated in several programs during which the values of Religion and Reality were emphasized with regard to effective, happy living. The well-known white and blue of Mary Washington ' s ' .W, signifies wholesome pleas- ure in social and spiritual experiences. 158 Sponsors Sponsors Dr. James Edwin Whitesell, Chairman EDr. George Earlie Shankle Mr. Lvle Hiatt Miss Thelma Hall Mr. Richard Kirby Cabinet JAMIE Redwood Association Committee Cjracie Cureton . . .

The Bullet is composed of a large staff in- cluding reporters, feature writers, advertising and business staffs, all working together to put out a finished produced on Friday night. Then an efficient circulation staff delivers it promptly to the waiting student body. IbO The Bullet coN ' ers all of the campus news, including stories of cluhs. classes, students, and faculty, and naturalK ' the fondest ambi- tion of e ery staff member is to come through e ' er so often with a sensational scoop.

A member of the associated college press, the Virginia Intercollegiate Press Association, and distributors of the Collegiate Digest. The Bullet is published every other week. This year M.W.C. delegates to the V.I. P. A. Con- x ' ention at Blacksburg walked off proudly with first honors for newspapers in Class B. True to the spirit of competition which characterizes all newspapers, The Bullet enjoN ' s Ting with other organizations on the hill in presenting annual benefits which combine hilarious fun with replenishment of the treasury.

Miss Catesby Woodford Willis Ihat the study and appreciation of the clas- sics affords much genuine pleasure and sheer amusement can be readily testified by the members of the Athenaeum. Whether it be a survey of Roman holidays and customs or a delving into the history of one of antiquity ' s famous women, these girls succeed in recreat- ing much of humor, much of dignity and much that is analogous to affairs of our world today. Brimming with enthusiasm regarding their heritage, these girls recognize — as they plan posters, skits, programs — that there is noth- ing new under the sun. College girls of today are but the Dianas, Minervas, Venuses, Junos, and Vestas of yesterday clad in modern garb. Everything has its counterpart in the culture of the ancients, through which culture qua- erit ad superos viam. 162 Athletic Association President Margaret Gilman Vice-President Dorothy Graf Secretary Claire Moore Alumnae Secretary ....

What joy, what swiftness, what ease is dis- played by these Terrapins as they flash from the diving board to glide through the rippling waters of the pool ! Such mastery of strokes and techniques is achieved only as the result of constant practices and endless hours of per- sistent endeavor, even after muscles and limbs have become quite fatigued. ' Why practice so hard? you ask. Only because of the exhibitions, the various meets, and the shows such as the spring aquacade, would be the probable reply. In the fascinat- ing grace and interesting skill displayed in the activities of such events one finds ample justi- fication for the ceaseless efforts of M.W.C. ' s Terrapins. 166 Modern Dance Club As long as man is responsive lo the forces of lijc and the universe there ivill be dance.

The Hoof Prints Club supplies the former, but their most vital interest is in the latter. .Along about initiation time the aspirants to this organization wander o er the campus like strange apparitions — girisdressed backwards and riding on broomstick steeds; we are re- minded almost of Ir ing ' s headless horseman in The Legend of Sleep ' Hollow. At regular meetings, the members settle down in their cozy clubroom for confabs about the spring horseshow, forthcoming gymkhanas, prospecti -e picnics and ' possum hunts. Their interest in equitation brings the riding enthusiasts pleasure and de -elops in them a fine sense of sportsmanship and com- radeship. Such qualities are constant com- panions of the happy girls who ne -er fail to hit the trail at every opportunity. ,y r.., .. , -j 169 Junior Modern Dance Club The dancer s body produces movement that is the stuff of art and movement that is the stuff of daily, routine physical living.
