To Iiiin we give our deepest love and admiration for guiding us with his wisdom, ever tempered with the under- standing of human feehngs. Respecting the worth of each individual, he has taught us the true meaning of humil- ity. . . . To her we attribute the intangible traits of finest womanhood. Her gracious- ness and friendliness, her genuine int- erest and participation, her intellectual and spiritual awareness make her our constant example. . . . To them we look for inspiration ... as to parents, unifying our family with shared ideals ... as to leaders, striving to make this a better world . . . as to friends, radiating warmth and con- cern for each of us. . . . To Dr. and Mrs. Grellet Collins Simpson we proudly and fondly dedicate this, our 1958 Battlefield. Omfikfie VV ITH an air of anticipation, we took our places for the dynamic drama which is Mary Washington College. Even before the curtain of excitement lifted we received the first symbol of our college years, we began our roles as students. Our tasks were to become familiar with the setting, to get acquainted with the other members of the cast, and to receive advice from the old hands. Gradually we settled into our roles and took up our parts in the drama. The first strains of the overture were heard as we began to seek our Hatful of Living.

First, I was cast in the role of the eager to please and anxious to do , enthusiastic Freshman. I played the part well, and was given the role of Sophomore in the next productive year of my college life. As Sophomore, I experienced an almost completely different character, for Sophomore was a bit more serious minded than Fresh- man which I had played previously. Next, I decided to try-out for the role of Junior, and much to my delight I was selected to play that part, also. Junior was one who looked at life more realistically than either Freshman or So|)li()m( re. As Junior, I made de- cisions as to what I should do with my education, and I studied so that I -El 16 } Uiir Cnlleyf Hint Dunce . . . leaving witli lis a life-liing symbol. Our classmates were lapped to Cap and Gown in our Junior year, and all of us delighted in their recognition. ' 9S8 might be successful in that phase of my acting career. With three years ' experience behind me, I took the big step and read for the part of College Senior. I felt confident that I was ready to be cast in that role, and I put forth my most earnest effort to do well as I tried out. Those watching were impressed with my ability, and I was given the part just as I had hoped. This was the part I knew I must play well from beginning to end. When I first walked onto the campus stage as Senior I felt a little strange. All of my supporting actors and actresses looked upon me with awe. As every eye turned toward me I experienced a tinge of stage fright, but soon I became accustomed to playing the lead. I was proud of my We serenaded our oum little sister c o.s for the first lime as Juniors. CLASS OFFICERS. Seated: M. Hansen, Secretary: I Gill, President: P. Harmon, .S. G. A. Reprefeniatii-e.

As Senior, I was a very busy character. Having a car both se- mesters; having one o ' clocks every Saturday night; having unlimited lights were some of my privileges, and I })erformed in such a manner as to take advantage of all of them. I was the President of Campus Organi- zations. I was the girl who did her student teaching and loved working with the little ones, as well as the high school students who were almost as old as I was. My ingenuity and hard work converted Tri-Unit into a crystal palace during the Christmas J 0 as Some adjji. tmeiils irere needed here . .:;( IH | season. I presented Chameleon to the Student Body in January and in so doing ... left behind a ' perfect part of what is known a Senior s heart ... I was the girl who spent many of her waking hours in the Placement Bureau applying for jobs that would allow me to use my education. Graduation activities, also, took uj) a good deal of my time since I had to decide upon a band for the dance, a dress, and send out my invitations, and say goodbye to Mary Washington . . . my home awaj ' from home.

Every activity had been sponsored with the one aim in mind . . . Ring Dance must be a success . . . and it was. Everything was just as perfect as they had hoped. From the last month of their sophomore year, they had planned for their Ring Dance. First, the class had to decide upon a ring. A choice was made and then excitement mounted as everyone was fitted and orders were placed. So often a junior would remark, I hope my fingers don ' t shrink between now and April. The trip to Bermuda which the class sponsored was a huge success. In fact, the girls who went have not stopped talking about their experiences with those motor bikes yet. The juniors presented the Wizard of Oz , and for the first time George Washington Auditorium played host to a class benefit well worth seeing again. Montaldos, in Richmond, furnished the clothes for the junior fashion show, and a lovely bride highlighted the event. Manj ' of the juniors had good cause to take notice of a wedding dress, for they would not only be wearing school rings as the end of the year rolled around. Yes, Ring Dance was a dream come true. Now a new dream of an exciting senior year was being formed as the juniors looked to the future. CLASS OFFICERS. Seated: i. Bewley, Secretary; D. Reeder, Presidents E. Sheppard. Standing: K.

After the trials and tribulations of life in freshman dormi- tories, the wise fools looked forward to the luxury of Mason and Randolph. Scholastics and friends became the main concerns of the sophomores. We had lost the helpless and hopeless feeling of freshman year and gained sophomoric confidence and boldness. However, we couldn ' t forget our bewilderment occasioned by our first look at college life, with the result that we eagerly helped our little sisters through the academic maze of registration and orientation. We didn ' t change majors quite as often, for we realized that soon we would be concentrating study on the goals of our aspiration. The Class of 1960 once more proved its mettle in the presentation of its benefit, Panic. The blood, sweat, toil, and tears were again combined to produce a memorable show. Sophomores watched with pride as our classmates assumed roles of responsibility in our new student government, but it was with regret that we realized that our Sisters would leave us in June. We would always appreciate their friendliness and guidance. It was indeed hard to believe that two years had been spent here at Mary Washington and that half of our college life was nowonly a memory.

Those first few weeks were maddening as we inevitably walked out of the dorm without our red and white beanies and right into a formidable upperclass- man waiting for us to do her bidding. But even the multitude of orientation programs, the sore throats resulting from too much practice at learning the Alma Mater, and the thousand names we felt we really ought to know could not keep our newly formed Devil spirit down. As the year progressed we gradually figured out our roommates, said Hi to faces we knew, and beat a path to Westmoreland, home of our Sisters, who frequently guided us back to academic, and sometimes social bliss. None of us can forget the innumerable mixers at which we stoically watched some of our classmates meet The One . We still cannot repress completely the memory of the first chaotic fire drill. Thinking that we had been prepared for everything, we ap- proached exams boldly, returned haggard, and resolved to make the Dean ' s Team next year. The benefit claimed our energies and talents second semester as we strove to make good our first appearance as a united class in The Naughty Lass . With the session drawing to a close, we became aware of the strong ties we had established during our first year in college . . . ties to Mary Washington, our Class, and our friends. CLASS OFFirERS.

For the aeeornplishment of this, we depend on the people in our cast who are involved in the various 7)hases of administration on campus. We shall long remember them at MWC for their efforts in making our years spent on the Ilill a hap])y and rewarding experience. Om C l mcei DR. GRELLET C. SIMPSON Chancellor of Mary Washington College of the University of Virginia In our Chancellor, Grellet C. Simpson, we, the students of Mary Washington College, are able to find many fine traits. Not only does Chancellor Simpson possess a deep sense of integrity, but he is able to convey this feeling to all those who come in contact with him. Quite obviously, his main interest lies with the indi- vidual student, for he is ever ready to listen to each student ' s problems no matter how small. His advice is well worth adhering to as so many of the students have found in going to him to discuss things which might have been worrying them. In his usual friendly, tolerant manner, Chancellor Simpson tries to foster our maturity by instilling in us the acceptance of responsibility and obedience to the unenforceable . Certainly, no one else could have been better suited to play the part of Chancellor. °y 15, IS!

At Mary Washington, Dean Alvey is indeed indispensable in the efficient handling of student affairs. It is difficult to imagine anyone giving more gen- erously of himself than does Dean Alvey. Even with his time-consuming position, Dean Alvey is never too busy to di.scuss a student ' s problem whether it be academic or personal. As we learn to realize fully the contributions which lie generously makes of his time and interest, we come I o api)reciate the significance of a person such as Dean Alvey. 4 104. ) Dean Whidden taken time out from a biixy day for a brief smohe. DR. REGINALD W. WHIDDEN Associate Dean of the College As Dr. Whidden leaves the vigorous duties of the classroom, and assumes the duties of Associate Dean, we must commend his very capable handling of both roles. We find Dr. Whidden to be sympathetic and un- derstanding whenever it is necessary to consult him. Throughout the year it is apparent that Dr. Whidden, acting as friend and advisor to so many, has gained the sincere respect and admiration of the entire student body. His constant interest in Mary Washington College and her students certainly deserves the utmost appre- ciation from all of us. 4 105 } Mii-.i Hargrove dincu.ises the hu.iuu:i.i of the dui with Ebic and Carol. MISS MARGARET HARGROVE Dean of Students of Mary Washington College of the University of Virginia Besides having been endowed with the qualifications which are essential to her position as Dean of Students, Miss Hargrove has had a great deal of experience in various phases of education and administration. Miss Hargrove is as gracious and charming in the office and the classroom as she is in her home. It is indeed a privilege to have someone serving in this capacity who finds a place in her busy .schedule for everyone, and who.se life has as its nucleus the con- sideration of others. lot) )■ DR. MARY ELLEN STEPHENSON Assistant Dean of Students MISS KATHERINE F. MORAN Assistant Dean of Students Aside from our academic and financial problems, there are also personal and social aspects of our college careers. These are very capably handled by our assistant deans, Miss Stevenson and Miss Moran. Whenever the students find it necessary to consult either, they are met with friendly understanding and an earnest desire to be of as- sistance. The students of Mary Washington are able to lead a col- lege life complete in all respects be- cause of their devoted efforts. Miss Stevenson and Miss Moran are to be commended for their es- sential and vital part in the every- day life at M. W. C. The seniors proudly dedicated Chameleon to Miss Stephenson.

Reeder, Junior Class Preside it; R. Bennett, Sophomore Clas President; G. Walker, Freshman Class President. HONOR COUNCIL A tradition above other traditions, the Honor System of Marj ' Washington is the foundation upon which the whole of her activities is based. As much a part of the college as its columns and shaded walks, the presence of its ideals — honesty and integrity — is felt not only in the classroom and the dormitories but in every other phase of college life. The Honor Council, composed of an elected president and the presidents of the four clas ses, is the judicial body of the system; but, as a chain is only as strong as its weakest link, so the true power of the Honor Sys- tem lies in the ideals of each individual who pledges herself to uphold the provisions of the Code. Sheets outlining the System were distributed to each dormitory room before the opening session in September. Freshmen and transfer students became acquainted with the System through individual coun- seling groups. Much more than a pledge to be signed on test papers, the Honor System is a way of life. Those who pass under its influence take a part of it away with them — yet the Honor System will remain the most mature and cherished tradition on the INIary AVashington campus.

Recognizing that the college girl of today is capable of handling new situations and living a life of her own, Student Council placed special emphasis not on its judicial functions but on a genuine effort to serve the student body and the college. The official activities for the 1957-58 session began in September with the pre-school conference. At that time plans for the year were mapped out, stressing those points in the student government which were weak. As the freshmen arrived, council was there to help conduct a successful Orientation Week, giving EVELYN BREEDEX President of the Student Government Association assistance to those who had just become a vital part of our college community. Later the spirit of Mary Washington College was displayed as the student body gathered for its Christmas party. During the 1957-58 session, an important goal of council was to begin the revision of its constitution. In order to emphasize the importance of student wel- fare, S. G. A. revised the safety program. To reinforce and make our student government stronger and more meaningful, the authority delegated to the house councils of each dormitory was enlarged. Council realized the need for a closer relationship and cooper- ative action among the faculty, administration, and student body. The beginning of the Forward Look appeared with the completely revised student handbook. The student body showed its enthusiasm with renewed spirit and willingness to make our college government one in which all can take pride. OFFICERS. F. Kairns, Treasurer; L.

To have each and every Mary Washington student realistically examine her own religious beliefs, and to build a more all-inclusive organization have been the primary objectives of the Y. W. C. A. this year. These objectives have found expression and outlet in a revised membership plan and in activities ranging from monthly campus-wide vespers to the introduction of a World University Service Drive. Coupled with these new activities were the traditional ones, such as Meet Your Minister Night, Big-Little Sister Day, the annual Recognition Service, dorm vespers, and social service projects. Facing the Issues of Faith through an intensive Religious Emphasis Week program stimulated many PEGGY KELLF.V President of the Young Tl ' omen ' s Chrisiian As.tocintiun students to seek and practice a more intelligent and intellectual religious life. Members of all faiths on campus met together with faculty members for buzz sessions and seminars led by our guest speakers. The wide scope of religion was demonstrated through an exhibit of religious art and through a musical pro- gram which featured the contributions of Catholicism, Judaism, and Protestantism in this field of culture. As a final contribution of the 1957-58 Y Cabinet, there was undertaken a complete reconstruction of the organizational system of the Y. AV. C. A., the antic- ipated result of which will be a stronger central re- ligious organization for Mary Washington, one from which all students may benefit and to which they may contribute their ideas and services.

It also plays an important part in the Christmas activities on campus. ALLENE TYLER President of the Recreation Association This j ' ear Recreation Association sponsored its first archery tournament.

Extra-curricular activities are balanced in order that the individual student may receive the benefits derived from campus organizations without neglecting her academic pursuits. The point system of I. C. A., which distributes opportunities for leader- ship, is devised to accomplish this end. Through careful planning Inter-Club strives to make possible a well-integrated program of student activity. BETTY BECKHAM President of Inter-Club Association The presidents of all recognized campus organiza- tions make up the association. The Inter-Club Council, which governs the organization, consists of three executive officers, five ex-officio members, and repre- sentatives of the nine groups with similar purposes or interests. This year Inter-Club Association presented a Carni- val of Clubs to inform new students of the opportuni- ties available for extending their interest beyond the classroom. OFl ' lCEItS. L.

In plan- ning programs an attempt is made to cover the divergent viewpoints of modern psycholog ' . The club sponsors programs in cooperation with Psi Chi. In December, Dr. Leonard Car- michael, Secretary of the Smith- sonian Institution and past presi- dent of Tufts College, spoke to the club on The Growth of the Mind in the Individual.

Second Row: ALUMNAE DAUGHTERS The Alumnae Association and the student body are bound more closely together by the daughters of the alumnae attending Mary Washington. This group helps to keep alive the traditions of the school and to promote the interest of other alumnae daughters in our college. One of the most important functions of Alumnae Daughters is to help with Alumnae Week End, cooperating with the Student Government Association in managing registration and pro- viding ushers for the evening program.

E. Majors ' Club began a very successful year. Senior, junior, sophomore and freshman majors all cooperated to make the club projects beneficial as well as en- joyable. Worth while use of leisure time was the aim of the club in planning trips to the University of Maryland-University of Virginia basketball game, the Marriott Ice Skating Rink in Washington, D. C, and an outdoor camping area near Fredericksburg, where everyone en- joyed roughing it for a week end. The club not only made great strides in improving its own yearly program, it also contributed to making the Fredericksburg Blood Drive a success by recruiting stu- dents on the Hill to donate blood. In serving Fredericksburg in this way the club brought about closer relations between the college and the community in which it is lo- cated. ARCHAEOLOGY CLUB The Archaeologj ' Club, or the Spade and Trowel as it is known to many, is a new club on campus. It was organized during the second semester of the 1956-1957 session under the direction of Mrs. Laura Sumner. The purposes of this club are to foster interest in archaeology, to show those interested the many facets of the subject, and to teach the members its techniques. These techniques will be put into practice in investigating the Fredericksburg area. In furthering its aims, the club has sponsored trips to lectures, museums, and excavations, and has presented guest speakers at some of its meetings. The club plans to establish a museum in which to dis- play the articles its members obtain during excavations. First Row: J. Abbot, C. Anderson, A. Bostick. Second Row: A. Tyler, N. Carneal, P.

While the members serve their fellow-students, they are also being trained in the fields of engineering, programming, and directing. In addition to presenting inter- views, speeches, and various musical programs the club makes recordings for both college girls and towns- people upon request. Offering a varied program, from personality interviews to disk-jockey shows and from classical interludes to inspirational talks, the club pro- vides an outlet for campus talent. It is staffed entirely by students. EL CLUB HISPANO- AMERICANO To fully enjoy the Spanish lan- guage, an understanding of the Spanish speaking people is necessary. The Spanish Club furthers class- room experience by acquainting stu- dents with the life and customs of the Spanish people. The club this year sponsored •several speakers and Spanish films, which were open to all students. At Christmas the girls had a party at which Mr. Loui.s Cabrera spoke on Christmas in Spain, and Miss Car- men Rivera spoke on the holidays in Puerto Rico. To celebrate Pan-American Day the club visited the Pan-American Union building at Wa.shington. Throughout the year the club con- centrated on acquainting students with Spanish life and promoting the fluent use of the language. ■.:{ 142 }c PHYSICAL THERAPY CLUB The Physical Therapy Club endeavors to orient its members in the field of physical medicine. This is accomplished through field trips to various institutions such as the Veterans Hospital and the Government Research Center at Walter Reed Hospital, the Children ' s Hospital and the Medical Museum of the Smithsonian Institution in Washington, D. C, and the Rehal ilitation Center and National Institute of Health in Bethesda, Mary land. Further orientation is made possible by observation of work done at the school for physically and mentally handicapped chil- dren in Fredericksburg and the Orthopedic Clinic of Mary Washington Hospital. Annually at Christmas the club sponsors a wreath-selling project. Proceeds are used to entertain the crippled children of Fredericks- burg and to increase the scholarship fund, which may be used as a loan by pre-Physical Therapy students at Mary Washington. Group solidarity and friendship among club members are established not only through trips, projects and regular dub meetings, but through more informal activities such as a barbecue in the fall and a retreat in the spring at the advisor ' s home on the seashore.

TOWN GIRLS ' CLUB United we stand; divided we fall. The Town Girls ' Club of Mary Washington provides for the non-boarding students of the Fredericksburg area the oppor- tunity to be an integral part of campus life. Meetings held once a month serve to inform the group of various college activities. Em- phasis is placed upon participation in school activities and fellowship among the members of the group. For club projects this year, the girls held two bake sales and during the Christmas season filled a basket with food and clothing for a needy family in Fredericksburg. MU ALPHA CHI Aided by field trips, movies, group projects, and speakers from the difl erent branches of medicine, the members of Mu Alpha Chi investigate various aspects of the ever-widening scientific fields. Membership is open to all Medical Technology and Pre-Med majors. In order to acc(uaint each member with the background of the medical field, the history of medicine and the lives of famous scientists are subjecis for the club i)r()grains. The cooperation program is fully ex- plained, and the members receive information about the schools to which they may go for advanced professional training. { 144 } ORIENTAL CLUB A performance by a group of Oriental dancers, a visit by a Buddist monk to Mary Washington, and an Oriental art exhibit exemplify the programs presented by the Oriental Club. Interest in the Eastern part of our world spread through the campus as all students were given the opportunity to attend these events. Collecting clothes for Vietnam and revising the Oriental book collection in our library were special projects of the club during the year. The club took its annual spring trip to AVashington to visit several embassies and to attend the birth- day celebration of the Buddah. First Row: A. Maull, V. Skees, Mr. Leidecker, Sponsor; A. Manke.

FORMAL DANCE COMMITTEE The Mary Washington Blazer, which almost every student wears proudly, would not be as con- veniently obtained were it not for the efforts of these girls. They make it possible for the students to have the opportunity of ordering these blazers. Working closely with the manufacturers, they ar- range for a company representative to be sent here so that orders for blazers may be taken on campus. This is not the only service they perform for the student body. Planning successful formal dances also fall into the category of things to do for this committee, as the name must indicate. This year we enjoyed two of our most successful dances. Stan Brown produced the music, and the Formal Dance Committee produced the effort to make the Christmas For- mal the unforgettable dance that it was. Les Elgart visited the Mary Washington scene as March roared in like a lion and brought with it the Emerald Ball. The Committee worked hard transforming the Gothic Room into our own Emerald Isle. Their ' s was a job well done, and well worth doing for all of the enjoyment it brought to the Hill. Seated: .J. Howard, S. Sheesley, E. Chapin, S. Middaugh. Standing: M. Ireland, .1. Lehman, D.

HOME ECONOMICS CLUB Enthusiasm for the homemaking arts is the only prerequisite for membership in the Home Economics Club. Motivated by a uniform ])urposc, the elevation of interest in new and varied fields of home- making, the members find outlets for their well-placed zeal in the Christmas bazaar, fashion shows, and dinners. On many occasions this club has risen to the moment by serving effectivel.y as a catering agency for teas, receptions, and dances. The delicious aroma of freshly baked brownies or toll- house cookies in Chandler Hall is a reminder that the future home- makers of America are preparing for another successful bake sale or tea exemplifying Mary Washington hospitality.

WORLD AFFAIRS CLUB By having speakers from various groups visit the club and the school, this organization endeavors to l)roaden and to strengthen in- ternational relations. The World Affairs Club presents an opportunity for all interested students to develop an insi ght into past and present events which liave made world history. In ad- dilion, the club increases its mem- bers ' understanding of other na- tions of the world, and America ' s relationship to each nation. 4 UG p- TLI-HI CLUB Mary Washington girls have at last taken an active interest in flying as has been evidenced by the ap- pearance of this new club on the campus. The Fli-Hi Club be- came an official member of Inter- Club Association in October of Nineteen Hundred and Fifty-Seven, after a year ' s probationary period. Flying experience is not necessary to become a member, only an in- terest in flying need be present. Mr. Sidney L. Shannon, the owner of Shannon Airport in Fredericksburg, is the benefactor of the club. He and other airport officials go out of their way to see that the club members receive every advantage in their en- deavors to learn more about the field of aviation. The facilities at the airport are left at the club ' s disposal, and ground instructions are given to club members free one night each week during the second semester. Club members will all look back with fond memories on the trip to Washington National Airport in Washington, D. C, where they visited the Radar Room, the Weather Bureau Room, the Ground Control Appraoch Room and the Eastern Airlines ' Hangar. The Fli- Hi Club has enjoyed a busy first year and all of the members antici- pate a successful year in the coming fifty-eight-fifty-nine session. Good Luck, Girls!!!

The primarj ' objective of the Fencing Club is to gain a better understanding and knowledge of the sport. To attain proficiency, mem- bers work vigorously in practice sessions each week. Attending ex- hibitions and demonstrations of pro- fessional and amateur fencers in Washington couples fun with sport. New members receive individual instruction from experienced touche-ists. In addition to its own activities, the Fencing Club sponsors the Junior Fencing Club. Through in- formal instruction and fencing bouts, friendships and proficiency develop. fSf (f First Row: K.

In the fall, Past Splashes was presented, repeating the most popular acts from previous shows. Taking full advantage of the weekly meetings and practice sessions in the pool, members exhibited their abilities in the spring Aquacade, the culmination of the year ' s efforts. In addition to sponsoring the Junior Swim Club for aspiring mermaids, the Terrapin Club again sent representatives to the National Synchronized Swimming Association. OFFICERS. R. Rictiardson, K.

For the first time members acted as Big Sisters to the newcomers. This speaks well for the club ' s purpose to foster good fellowship as well as good sportsmanship among riders. Another first for the club was the enlargement of the Fall Horse Show from a one-day to a two-day show. This allowed for a greater variety of classes and en- couraged greater participation not only by students but also by children and adults of the community. Requirements for membership are one semester of riding and an interest and ability in the sport. T. Coons, D. Pethick, B. Sundbeck, B. Corson, J. Bragg, M. McManus, I . Gaylord, J. Render, S. Sooy.

Dining at the religious centers of the campus, the Council held its annual spring progressive .supper, which was concluded by an inspirational worship service. The Council consists of representa- tives of each religious group who elect a president, and functions under the guidance of Miss Susie Peach Foster. Firnt Row: K. Green, .1.

BAPTIST STUDENT UNION Activities of the year were begun in a lively vein with the Pre-School Retreat, inspired by the theme for the year, His is Your Life. Power Week, in February, brought further thoughts on this theme. Mr. Bill Jenkins, new State B. S. U. Executive Secretary, conducted a series of devotionals in October on What Baptists Believe. In December Frances Hudgins, mis- sionary to Thailand, was our guest speaker. Uniting with B. S. U. ' ers from the state, M. W. C. was well represented at the State Convention in Richmond and the Spring Retreat at Eagle Eyrie. Several parties were enjoyed, both here and as visitors at neighboring schools. Special emphases at nightly inspirationals included World Re- ligions, Church Loyalty, Temp- tation, Missions Emphasis, and Christ — The Hope. F ' reshmen Week, in which the Freshmen girls took over jobs of the upperclassmen, proved very beneficial to all. Many seasonal or weekly activities, such as Y. W. A., Choir, B. T. U., and Sunda,y School, were well executed. J hcse were all combined under the direction of Miss Lucille Peak, Student Secretary, to make a most successful year. NEWMAN CLUB Religious, intellectual, and social activities — these are the purposes of the Newman Club for Catholic students at Mary Washington. Throughout the year, monthly communion break- fasts, weekly Rosaries, Lenten Sta- tions of the Cross, Newman Choir participation, and buzz sessions gave the Catholic girls on campus an opportunity to strengthen their re- ligous lives. The club also observed the annual Cardinal Newman Day, honoring its founder. A Day of Recollection was held for meditation and prayer. For the first time this year the group made available to all students a library service. Both religious and lay speakers brought messages for the intellectual stimulation of club mem- bers. Rounding out the program were joint religious and social activities with Newmanities from other colleges. Thus the three-fold purpose of Newman Club was served. WESLEY FOUNDATION Wesley Foundation is the organiza- tion for Methodist students at Mary Washington. The relationship to the Church is kept close by church at- tendance and provision for aiBliate membership in the local congregation. During the week, approximately three hundred and twenty Methodist students find the doors of the Wesley Center at 1213 Dandridge Street open to them for fellowship, worship, and study. The Wesley Choir and deputation teams provide special programs for neighborhood churches. Through Wesley ' s various activities and programs, members seek to pro- vide opportunities for service and religious growth. First Row: E. Foulk, L. McNeniey, .1. Ryan, P. Ristori, S.

WESTMINSTER FELLOWSHIP Westminster Fellowship includes girls of the Presbyterian faith on cam- pus. It is a fellowship which seeks to give purpose to student life. Through Sunday night programs, small study groups, conferences, retreats, and wor- ship, Westfell helps students to de- velop a deeper and more mature faith, one which is necessary for the college student. An aid for the student is the excellent library of religious books which is available for her use at all times. Service is another feature of AVest- minster Fellowship; the responsibility of caring for the nursery several Sun- days each month has been given them by the church, and girls are also urged to participate in the church choir. Be- sides recreational activities planned for the M. W. C. group, joint picnics and meetings are held with members at nearby colleges and universities. CANTERBURY CLUB Worship, study, work, and fellow- ship — these are the primary aims of Canterbury Club. Under the guidance of the student worker, Carol Macklin, the Episcopalian students on campus strive to accomplish these aims. Throughout each week varied activities are offered, including Evening Prayer, Wednesday morning Holy Communion and Friday night informal programs. Visiting speakers, panels, movies and slides were included this year in the two chief series of programs — The Church and Love and Marriage. The adoption of three small foster children in Fredericksburg was the main outside project. The members gave them a real Christmas and took them on various trips. Another project sponsored by the club was a visit to the Fredericksburg Convalescent Home, where a program of music was ])resented. Through these projects Canterbury members strengthened their faith and served their church away from home. ■ 154 HILLEL FOUNDATION Hillel Foundation, offering the Jewish girls on campus an oppor- tunity for fellowship, had an active year. Among other projects, the Hillelites sponsored several hot dog sales in the dorms and a dance for the student body. Through talks given by such leaders as Rabbi Honan of Char- lottesville, and through discussions of certain religious pamphlets, the girls were able to deepen their in- sight and to broaden their knowl- edge of Judaism.

Con- stantly during the year the staff formulated, created, and at last, not without struggle, produced the ' 58 Battlefield. Trips to Lynchburg during the summer to make up the dummy were followed by increased activity during the year as ads were sought and ob- tained, pictures taken, and copy written. The production of the ' 58 Battlefield was not without mishaps, however, as the key to head- quarters refused to turn a subborn lock and the staff had to resort to climbing in the window, or the water pipes started banging and knocked out the latest HARRIET AYRES Editor-in-Chief BAKBARA I,E VI.S Amiietant Editor MKREUITH HANSEN Adverlinng Manager BATTLEFIELD inspiration.

Bennie Bramson worked diligently to find new type combinations, and Leigh Goodrich consoled reporters whose headlines were 18j instead of 18. Fran Ferguson always came through with a wonderful cartoon when it was most needed, while news editor Charlotte Wohlnick dashed around the campus for that last minute article. Over all the commotion came the moans, groans, and exclamations of the editor-in-chief. Patsy Peterson ' s advertising staff combed Fredericks- burg to get that extra ad, while Mary Ellen Forbes and her crew counted out newspapers for dormitory delivery. Business Managers Margot Guest and Audrey Manke worked hard to balance their confusing books. Busy editors, enthusiastic staff members, and interested advisors made the thirtieth year of publication a gold star one for the Bullet. To start the year off right, Judy Townsend and her staff welcomed freshmen with a special issue on September 15. Later, new staff members were introducted to the mysteries of newspaper publica- tion through seminars and meetings. A Christmas party highlighted the holiday season, but the most important event of the year was the gala Thirtieth Anniversary Banquet in March. Yet it was the confidence and trust of the administrative offices, the scoops from the Student Council and the Chancellor ' s office which made the year a memorable one. Praise for a good newspaper, well-written and well- planned, convinced overworked editors that those 1:30 nights and long hours at the printers were worthwhile, for the service given the college community made the student newspaper a lively force in campus life.

THE EPAULET JUNE KYZER Editor-in-Chief CARLOTA MUSE Literary Editor Experimentation marked this year ' .s Epaulet, our literary maga- zine. Verse, criticism, fiction, and articles representative of and per- tinent to the Mary Wa.shington College student body were con- tributed by interested students as usual. But with the publication of the first of its three issues, the campus was startled to find that the once familiar aspect of the magazine had been coinjiletely changed. The striking abstract cover design might .symbolize the Epaulet ' s new direction.s — new di- rections in size, in writing, in format, and in art. 4 164 ] Dr. Simpson commends the Bullet on u fine year ' s icurk.

MARY WASHINGTON COLLEGE PLAYERS A stage door to many represents a gateway to a world of enchantment, but to members of Mary Washington College players it represents a world of hard work, fun and long-to-be-remembered experiences. This organi- zation is open to all who are interesed in learning more about the many facets of the theater such as lighting, scenery, make-up, costuming and acting. Under the direction of the Dramatic Arts Depart- ment, the players produce four plays a year. This season ' s productions have included Tennessee Williams ' play A Street Car Named Desire , Eugene O ' Neill ' s Great God Brown , Karel and Joseph Capek ' s The World We Live In , and Robinson Jeffer ' s version of the Media . In addition, members of the children ' s theater classes have presented plays for the local school students. The directing classes have presented several Reading and Action plays which are open to the student body free of charge. This year, again, the club participated in the College Drama Festival in Richmond and again presented an original one-act play. The climax of the year ' s activities is Award Night, at which time membership cards are given out and special awards are given for outstanding service to students and to those people of Fredericks- burg who have contributed their time and talent throughout the year.

CONCERT AND JUNIOR DANCE Enriching their own creative experiences as well as the interests of the student body is the purpose of the Concert Dance Club. The members attend various professional performances and participate in campus theatrical productions. This year ' s program consisted of a lecture- demonstration on the technicjues of dance, a visit to the Arts Forum at Women ' s College in Greens- boro, N. C, and participation in the Mikado , which was presented for Alumnae Week End. Each year a member is honored by being selected to attend the Connecticut College Summer School of Dance on a scholarship awarded by the Recrea- tion Association. Striving foi- skill and grace in artful expression, a junior dance group serves as a .stepping stone to the more advanced apprentice group and concert dance group. ■{ 170 } THE ART CLUB The artist tries to interpret what she sees with individuality. The Art Chib is the campus organiza- tion that gives art majors a chance to share their individual ideas and to work with each other. The members were also given a special opportunity to enjoy the works of well known artists when they helped with the Annual Mary Washington Con- temporary Art Exhibition. A Virginia museum collection of Virginia college art work was sponsored by the club. Many of the pictures in this collection were contributions from the Mary Washington department. A poster workshop to show representatives from the various campus clubs how to make effective posters met with enthusiasm. Speakers from various art fields gave the op- portunity for sharing ideas; exhibitions served to stimulate an appreciative interest. ' wonder if this loill be for the Student Art Exhibit.

MARY WASHINGTON CHORUS The chorus, singing under the direction of Dr. Luntz, a new- comer to the Music Department of Mary Washington College, presented concerts to audiences at the college and other schools in Virginia. The fine reception of the Christmas Program, given in George Washington Hall, showed the girls that their hard work and talent is appreciated. In March, the choral group pre- sented a concert to the students at Washington and Lee in Lex- ington, Virginia. At each performance, the Chorus showed mastery of song, the true prevailing spirit at Mary Washington. First R„„ : IS. Wo.,,1, J. Brecden, A. Jliller, U. Richardson, P. Chilton, J. Rambo, P.

Receiving her freshman beanie, a new- comer to the cast hfts the curtain on the dynamic drama in which she will be a vital participant for the next four years. The first phase with which she wants to famil- iarize herself is the life in the dormitory. Friendships, ideals and principles are formed in Willard and Virginia, which are nur- tured through four precious years. These treasured loyalties fully flourish when girls reach Ball Dormitory and prepare for the world beyond. When one dons the freshman beanie, she feels the responsibility for her own life as perhaps she has never felt it before. Her desire is to be worthy of this symbol, but soon more long-range goals take precedence. She seems to have outgrown her beanie. On Loyalty Night, she is impatient to lose this stigma of newness and enter full participation in the drama unfolding around her. She now aspires to the dream of wearing the senior ' s academic cap and gown. Her task now is to fill this hat with productive, creative, intelligent living. Living in Ball, the senior dormitory, seems a great distance in the future during these early days in AVillard, when helpful counselors are on hand to offer guidance and advice to each freshman; but soon it is time to assume more responsibility for herself and the way of life for which Mary Washington College stands. A year passes in the luxurious sophomore haven of the Golden Horseshoe, and suddenly juniors in Westmoreland are beginning to talk of assuming the leading rolls on the campus. The realization of growth in all phases makes us conscious that we soon will accept the mortar board, symbol of our HATFUL OF LIVING. One nf the proud oumers of a new beanie. Loyalty Night speakers made us evermore mindful of the M. W. C. spirit and traditions. ■ i 199 } Madison and Ball and Custis Sow lei me see if emrijnne .liijnfirl in. ... and it ' s exactly what I had in mind, liio. 4 200 } TRI-UNIT Could that have been the strains of Pomp and Circumstance coming from the three adjoining buikHngs right in the center of campus? But of course! What other song could have been more ap- propriate coming from the senior dorms? It provided perfect background music for the customary senior hustle and bustle . From the first few days of school, signs that Tri-Unit was definitely the seniors ' home began to appear. Every closet housed an academic gown and caps were hung proudly on the mirrors. Every week night the marines landed in the parlor, and before the year was over From the Halls of Tri-Unit came quite a few marine brides. Just as A man ' s home is said to be his castle . Ball became the seniors ' Crystal Palace as dorm decorations appeared for the Christmas season. The Willard Choir presented their special Christmas vespers in Ball parlor, and in so doing, made us ever more mindful of the true spirit and meaning of Christmas. The dorm Christmas party was a huge success, and Mrs. G. was just delighted with her new blue robe. The year passed swiftly as the walls of Tri-Unit watched seniors study for exams. May Queen election, and finallj ' graduation exercises. The Class of 1958 would not leave Tri-Unit completely empty, however, for the walls echo its plans for the future, and most of all its laughter. Some feniors even gave up studying and converted their dexhs into dressers. Such confidence! What is the latest word from Peanuts and the gang?

At last in their major fields, juniors attacked their academic courses with interest and enthusiasm. With their goals finally in sight it became evident that the only way to a degree was through hard study, and the juniors settled down to it. Showing qualities of leadership and responsi- bility, juniors held top positions in many campus organizations, and extra-curricular activities pro- vided a needed diversion from busy academic schedules. Westmoreland parlor, which provided the setting for Ring Dance plans, benefit committees, and the ordering of class rings, was transformed at Christmas time into a hall of silver bells to provide the atmosphere for a tea given in honor of the senior class. During Ring Dance week end Westmoreland witnessed a hub of excitement, as juniors prepared for the biggest social event of their college careers, and dates poured into the parlor in profusion! Juniors in Westmoreland were busy meeting academic requirements and extra-curricular demands, yet they were seldom too busy for fun. There were also many occassions that brought to the foreground serious reflection and critical evaluation of basic ideals . . . ideals that would lead the juniors into a happy and rewarding senior year. ' Thdxe girls have to alumys be reminded when 12 o ' clock Friday and Saturday rolls around. ' Weslmureland Hall 4. 203 ) THE GOLDEN Mason Hall And then we were sophomores . . . lonely at first without the nightly bop sessions in the halls and water battles between Virginia and Willard; but, later too comfortable in our luxury to miss the freshman frolic. The Golden Horseshoe, the epitome of comfort and ease on the Hill, was at last ours! As we accepted the changes from freshmen to sophomores, from Williard to Randolph, we also accepted some changes within ourselves: we had lost some of our dearest friends; we studied more; we became more interested in the events on campus; we saw more of Quantico and ... we had grown older. However, some things never change . . . bus loads still headed for Annapolis; Randolph-Macon and Richmond still supplied Wednesday night fun; the Ivy Leaguers st ill headed north, while V. ' a continued to furnish that Southern hospitality. We still crammed for tests, but now with unlimited light privileges; we saw early morning without having seen our soft comfortable beds. We still sweated the benefit and were anxious for the success of our sophomore exam informal. Of course the proverbial sophomore slump arrived, but we consoled ourselves with the knowledge that this was one of the things that would change. Yuu hare a jihrme rail in the office.

HORSESHOE Randolph Hall The year brought many happy times to the sophomores and remaining juniors of Randolph and Mason. Cold and rosy, we returned to the Horseshoe after serenading our sister class before their benefit. Hearts spilled over with Christmas joy as we risked our lives climbing forty-foot ladders to bring Randolph first prize in the Christmas dorm decoration contest. Then Santa Claus escorted the Mason girls to Randolph for some entertainment at Christmas parties. Bruises, bumps, and snowmen were the results of Fredericksburg ' s coldest winter in twenty years. (We even managed to get some of our dates snowbound one cold, cold week end in February.) Everyone ' ' clutched with excitement as Panic filled our treasury with funds and our hearts with fun. Still retaining some freshman spunk and then accjuiring some sophomore wisdom, we enjoyed every moment the year afforded us. As the campus once again wore the green beauty of spring and the fountain in our Golden Horseshoe spouted again with new vitality, we prepared to welcome our junior year and our new responsibilities. In front of Randolph there appeared an igloo. . . inside Peace to men all over the world prevailed. . . . . until the Fire Drill Bell sounded and pandamonium reigned.

Not only equal in numlDer, the freshmen and sophomores were throughout the year equally beneficial to each other. The fresh- men with their high spirits and zest for college life gave a much needed shot in the arm to sopho- mores, who were suffering from what is termed the sophomore slump. Likewise, the sophomores with their vast experience gave encouragement to the freshmen as they endeavored to conquer those seemingly insurmountable obstacles that one in- variably encounters freshman year. These two closely integrated groups found an opportunity to enjoy each other ' s company while well hidden behind masks at the Halloween party, and an opportunity to work together while dec- orating Virginia for the Christmas season. They helped each other move furniture into the halls, as a prerequisite to the painting job that trans- formed Virginia into a like new dormitory. At another time, bleary-eyed sophomores led wide- eyed freshmen out into a cold, rainy night for their first fire drill. Perhaps the greatest honor Virginia claimed this j ' ear, however, was the plaque pre- sented to the dorm by Mu Phi Epsilon, honorary music fraternity. This plaque represents the col- laboration of freshmen and sophomores in an effort to present most effectively their talent and is a tangible symbol of the Devil-Goat fellowship in Virginia Dormitory. The halls must be more conducive to study these days.

The Spirit grew as Willard girls broadened their friendships b.y shar- ing in dorm life. They spent many unforgettable hours within her walls, for each attempted to do her share in house meetings, dorm committes, and parties. Vespers played a vital part in the daily life of Willard, giving each girl the opportunity to share religious ideas with others. Santa invaded Willard during Christmas by selecting the parlor as his workshop. And then one evening the halls glowed as the choir caroled its way to the parlor to present the traditional Christmas music. The Devil Spirit rose to its peak when the freshmen with their sister class supported sports, serenades, and benefits. As the year came to a close, they reminisced about the memorable events of their first college year in Willard. ' Twos one night befure Christmas and all through Willard Willard Hall 3il ' vi • «f1 m jH ifl ' B 9iS m Wi ' CORNELL Most oj our spare time loas spent in the new Recreation Roon When we green ones, laden with suitcases, boxes, books, and stuffed animals, as we struggled to keep our newly acquired beanies balanced — when we know nothings trudged up the stairs of Cornell, little did we foresee the incidents and people that were to turn into memories of a truly wonderful freshman year. First, came the new washing machine. Then came the dryer, the piano, record player, and ping-pong table. What a treat! How could we ever forget the hours spent in the remodelled Recreation Room or the suppers in the redecorated kitchen! And what could ever wipe away the memory of our dorm party to which we invited MALES! Somehow the snow had a particular significance to Cornell girls, not only in providing a special in- spiration for our dorm choir as we Christmas caroled around the campus, but also in affording many happy sleigh rides down Cornell hill. Perhaps the most unified feeling of friendship came to Cornell at Easter, when the choir presented a sunrise service. This and the hours .spent in talking with the suite across the hall, playing bridge with the girls downstairs, and reading our roommate ' s term paper all added up to times symbolic of our close friendship. We no longer felt like martyrs of the outside world. ■{ 210 } BETTY LEWIS The activities sponsored by Betty Lewis were planned with the hope of creating a closer re- lationship among the girls in Betty Lewis as well as with all the students at Mary Washington. The open house tea sponsored by Betty Lewis gave the girls a chance to meet and become ac- quainted w ith the administration, new faculty members, and the presidents of the major organi- zations. Memories of picnics, dinner with Cornell, caroling on the Hill and at the Mary Washington Hospital, and the activities of the newly formed Betty Lewis Choir will be kept alive in the Betty Lewis Scrapbook.

Betty Lewis Hall { 2U Life in the small dorms here at Mary Washing- ton is certainly not as passive as people have surmised when viewing the campus for the first time. INIany times the remai ' k has been made by a visitor upon seeing one of the small dorms My, what a serene looking little place! Though outward appearance may give that impression, one has only to walk inside to discover that the residents of these dorms are not passive in- dividuals at all. Due to the fact that these dorms are so small there is a closeness among the students living in them ... a closeness similar to that found among the members of a large family ... a large family such as the one pictured in Cheaper by the Dozen, for instance. Cer- tainly then, one must agree that these dorms house very active individuals. Many were the times in Spotswood when the girls would take Framar Hall Marrjnni llrnd Hall Trench IliU Hall 4, 212 )■ turns cooking meals characteristic of different countries for each other. When the snows came, the girls from Trench Hill became the owners of a private ski slope as the street was blocked off due to weather conditions. The bird lovers in Anne Fairfax had to give up their beloved parakeets, but many trips were made to the pet shop in Fredericksburg to see their fine feathered friends. The girls in Marye were delighted when their housemother announced a coming wedding, and Brent ' s pizza parties lasted many times into the wee hours of the night. The girls in Framar showed off their beautiful tans and enjoyed their own pool immensely. Yes, the small dorms ' occupants had a good year, and all knew that the3 ' would miss this family-like life in the coming year. „ :. « . Marye Hall Spotswood Hall Anne Fairfax Hall - J ,- SS y X .

In seeking to fill her mythical hat with pur- poseful living, academic activities are rewarding and enriching. One seeks the keys to more fruitful living by looking through a microscope to discover the secrets of the microcosm; another, stimulated by philosophy class, spends many hours discussing world problems over a cup of coffee in the college shop. A vast and inspiring library holds the answers to many of her questions about her expanding horizons. Campus vespers and religious activities pro- vide the opportunities to develop spiritually and to give service to others. In her roll in this great play, a girl finds many diversions and recreational facilities at her fingertips. Part of the drama itself is the spirit of friendly rivalry of the intermural volleyball games . . . the precision-like cooperation of groups wearing the hats of the Terrapin Club, the cavalry, and the band. The feeling of class unity is emphasized in cooperative projects such as the Junior Ring Dance, when each girl has earned the privilege of wearing the college ring, and the class produc- tions or benefits , when the class is unified with spirit and enthusiasm for the great stage. Many wonders rest in the magic of a microscope. Miss Lncy Corr kept the Sociology classes quite interested.

Striving to become a well-rounded person, the member of the cast enjoys the informal bridge games; the lengthy, laughing, girl-talk after a big week end; and various clubs with special interests. Monthly teas fill her Sunday hat with delightful conversation and warm friendships. The college-sponsored dances swell her hat with thoughts of romance and fun with her classmates and their escorts. Week-end trips to dances at nearby colleges and military academies furnish topics for dialogue all during the week. She may watch excitedly from her window for the sight of that special Maiine ' s hat coming up the walkway. Slushing around the campus in slicker and rain hat, she faithfully makes her way to the post office and waits anxiously for that letter from home. In a snug knitted cap, she joins the fun of sledding down the snow-covered hills, or sculpturing a Chameleon from the snow to advertise the coming class production. The student-faculty picnics and parties, as well as club projects, offer the chance to meet with the facult.y on a social basis. From the cooperation and loyalties and close association in the dynamic drama of Mary Wash- ington College, result lifetime friendships. I ' m glad she ' s playing this hand.

Symbol of her achievement, this HATFUL of LIVING dis- tinguishes the senior from the other members of the cast. Graduation, the final scene in the play, is the time for evaluation and for the resolution to use the knowledge, moral courage, and ideals for which the hat stands, to improve the world beyond the gates of the college and the drama of which she has been a part. The play ending, she steps into the world with faith, and awaits the verdict of the critics. More important than the opinion of others is her own evaluation of her worth as an individual in a world where she may be called upon to be a leader or an intelligent follower, sti-iving always to make this a life of progress toward the shared ideals of others of her generation who, like her, have taken part in such a drama. In academic cap and gown .she takes her bows humbly and parts tlie curtain of a new life. Here are our angels . . . the people who have backed our show. A vote of thanks to our producers. A SALUTE TO THE ADVERTISERS I would like to take this opportunity to thank each one of the advertising firms represented within the following pages for the major role that they have played in the production of the 1958 BATTLEFIELD. We of the staff have worked together to pro- duce what we feel is an outstanding annual, but no amount of hard work could produce such a book without the wholehearted support of the advertisers. Because of the many interested friends of Mary Washington College, the advertising section this year is one of our largest. We are proud to have each and every one represented here. Certainly the Class of 1958 and those that follow will remember you as friends of Mary Washington College of the University of Virginia. We wish to express our appreciation to you for helping us make our yearbook a success. Meredith G. Hansen Advertising, Manager 4. 249 )§=■ )je U ie€.
