Maryville College - Chilhowean Yearbook (Maryville, TN)

Text from Pages 1 - 116 of the 1944 volume:

1994 1985 1978 TWENTY YEARS- THIRTY YEARS- FORTY YEARS, MAYBE FIFTY YEARS FROM NOW YOU WILL TURN THESE MUSTY PAGES TO WALK IN THE SHADOWS AND RELIVE THE MEMORIB OF YESTERYEARS AT OLD MARYVILLE I SOME FACES LONG SINCE FORGOTTEN :«t ■- « V, v WILL RETURN TO YOUR THOUGHTS AGAII Bj THERE WAS ROMANCE ALL HEARTS WERE BLITHE AND MERRY X AND ADVENTURE ■T niirATFnwFwniiinRF All of us came to college with the desire to learn, to develop, to gain knowledge. Although we sometimes had strange ways of showing this aim, all of us left better equipped to meet the world face onward. CLASSES . LABS • CRAMS • UUIZZES  FAM L AR HAUNTS Our memories will Include not only fun, friends, and classes, but also the campus In Itself. The Cor duroy, the Pillars of Thaw, the Steps, the Tower, perhaps a favorite tree that had to be held 1 up, or maybe just a bench— these things will also remain In our thoughts. ' -:. - - ' s THE CAMPUS RANG WITH MARCHING FEET In the March of 1943 something new was added to our cloistered college life. American soldiers moved Into our campus bringing with them the spirit of the American youth. It was our genera- tion. To these men who have been trained beside us and who shall soon fight for us we dedicate our 1944 Chilhowean, with the hope that soon the whole world — a better world — will ring with the tramp of their feet toward home.

Assistant Business Manager Gone forever are the days of 1943 and 1944, days of fun and laughter, of learning and de- velopment. Yet long will their influence remain with us. We begin to realize that Maryville has become a part of us even as we have been a part of Maryville. We have become instilled with the ideals and traditions of our Alma Mater. Consciously or unconsciously we have assimilated some of the finer Intangible things that college life offers. It is our hope In publishing this annual that it will always prove a storehouse of happy memo- ries for you.

I 74 I FEBRUARY MEETINGS The February Meetings, held February 2-10, 1944, consti+u+ed the sixty-eighth series since their inauguration in 1877. This period of spiritual emphasis resulted in an enrichment of the lives of the many who participated. Rev. hHarrison Ray Anderson, D.D., Pastor of the Fourth Presbyterian Church of Chica- go, leader of the meetings, won everyone by his presentation of the great spiritual truths demonstrated in his own life as well as in his sermons, forums, and conferences. Rev. Sidney Stringham, D.D., Pastor of the Shaw Avenue Methodist Church, St. Louis, led the singing for the twenty-second time. The warm welcome he receives each year is testimony to the guality and helpfulness of his service. DR. HARRISON RAY ANDERSON DR.

The Y. M. C. A. ' s Committee on Athletics, however, arranged a fine program of Intramural contests throughout the year to compensate for the loss of Intercollegiate sports. During the fall semester, under the direction of Lloyd Anderson, a series of Football and Speedball games were played; while the spring semester found Harold hluffman ar- ranging a schedule of contests in Basketball, Table Tennis, Tennis Doubles, and Softball. Are you ready was boomed out across the court, a ball was served over the net and the volley ball tournament began in all the girls ' gym sections last Fall. Each class had its own contest.

The students now on the Hill and the alumni for more than forty years will see as they look at this picture — a great man. They will remember him running across the campus early in the morning, cheering at a football game, smiling and talking with a new student. Hundreds will know from their own experience that in any time of trouble he was kind, understanding, humble: that without exception he would see a fellow through no matter what the need. In the field of business and investment he was widely known and highly honored for his keen financial ability and his absolute integrity. His vision for the work of the college and his untiring industry enabled him to bring our college through the difficult years when its endow- ment was being established, through World War I, through the years of depression, to make it today a business corporation of strength, sound reputation, and notable success.
