C In this, the 1944 Oak Leaves, it has been our purpose to create an annual which is representative of our life at Meredith. We have en- deavored to give a picture of the campus life and the students them- selves, which we hope will serve as a permanent record of one oi our happiest years. With a feeling of gratitude for the cooperation which has been shown by the students and faculty, we present to you the 1944 Oak Leaves. Z%5 + Because she has shown continued interest in us; because she has upheld the highest intellectual standards of Meredith; because she has portrayed by her own life the maximum Christian ideals — and because we love her, we dedicate this, the 1944 Oak Leaves to Dr. Helen Price cum maxima laude. % im ' ;.:. f THE PEOPLE ORGANIZED EFFORTS HIGHLIGHTS TO BE REMEMBERED ADS eo. i lite Rocrtd Zebulon Marvin Caveness Commodore Thomas Council Foy Johnson Farmer Anna Kitchin Josey James Yadkin Joyner LeRoy Martin Sankey L.

' ETB.-BBCBJ B B M f. r3 ' Y ' The fall of the last leap year found a large group of young lassies on the Meredith campus for the first time, and they in turn found themselves in the throes of orientation week. Coming through this test for the survival of the fittest, they im- mediately began to show evidences of an unusual ability in a leadership that would bring four years of success for them as individuals and as a class. That first year the class won second place in Palio and had a gay time at their plantation party. The next year they gave up their party to donate the mone) to the American Red Cross. The most memorable day of that year was the one that started for them at 1:00 a.m.. when with varying degrees of drowsiness they crawled into a truck and rode off to gather daisies for the traditional Class Day chain. As juniors, these maturing young ladies accepted the duties and privileges of big sisters ' in their stride and sought diligently for the crook that they almost found. For the Palio festivities they donned bakers ' caps and won for themselves the right to have their numerals occupy the top line of the new Palio banner. Now that another leap year is here, these lassies, now seniors, have become the leaders on the campus. The faith that the college has always had in them was demonstrated when at the be- ginning of the year they were all made official chaperones — the first class to receive the honor. The Stunt Night cup was won this year for their presentation of Money Talks. As a climax to their varied and outstanding college life they await in eager anticipation their day of graduation. 24 Aw Kay Kramer M R Elizabeth W KI.W President Secretary V Avis Branch Mary Hill Vice President Treasurer Grace Belle Alexander Goldsboro.

Great was the rejoicing in Stringfield when last year ' s freshmen ac- quired the dignified name, sophomores. ' They began an enthusiastic year last fall with hard experience and well fought victories to aid them. With greater goals to work for, they have led a busy life this year and have reached new heights. Their originality and class spirit won them second place in both the Palio and Stunt activities. With their capable leadership, talent, and will to work, they hope to conquer new fields in the second half of their years at Meredith. 72 4 QQ( Barbara Abernathy Janie Sue Allen Mary Elizabeth Banks Rebecca Barnes Helen Bedon Mildred Blackmail Marjorie Blum Dorothy Browne Bolinj; Doris Gene Bowman Evelyn Britt Esabel Britt Jean Brooks Dorothy Bruton Meredith Cash Jean Chesson Ethel ChifTelle Ikf oojakomor u Mary Jo Clayton Elizabeth Cotton Helen Frances Crain Elizabeth Davis Jean Davis Mary Davis Ann Dean Betty Lou Deato Alice Delbridge Josephine Dorsett Jewell Eatman Helen Evans Marilyn Ferrell Eloise Fishel Eva Fitzgerald Julia Fleming I uttsb ok ' ' 46 Mary Freeman Hilda Frink Mildred Gilbert Hazel Goodwin Ruby Greene Delano Hall Helen Hall Nancy Harris Betsy Hatch Peggy Haywood Nancy Hieks Mary Lee Holder Betsy Jean Holt Viola Hoyle Josephine Hughes Jewel Hyatt ni bojmmwv u Mildred Allen Jenkins Hazel Johnson Kitty Johnson Myra Jones Alexandria Kambis Juliette Kambis Maria Kitchen Emily Knott Evelyn Kocher Gwendolyn Krahnke Mary Dell Lambert Emily Lassiter Florine Ledford Flora Ann Lee Charlotte Leonard Mildred Lewis llo ok ' 46 ofHaa W ilia Grey Lewis Elizabeth Mace Julia Matthews Kathleen Powers Lillian Lineberry Evelyn Little Melba Long Patsy McLawhorn Anne McLendon Peggy Majette Helen Burt Mauney Myra Miller Gertrude Pierce Hannah Pridgen Connie Redwine Beryl Reynolds h oojakomor id Katherine Roddick Ruby Lee Spencer Barbara Stone Dorothy Tippett Elizabeth Sawyer Wilba Stanfield Dorothy Stone Mary Alice Turner Billie Severn Barbara Stephens Mabel Summers Marv G.

They entered Meredith last fall with the distinction of having one of the largest classes in the history of the school, and they can now lie proud of quality as well as quantity. The freshmen ' s artful and well-planned idea for Palio won for them the Palio hanner. They have shown also their talent in all school activities. The momentous decision of society colors and the intrigue of the crooking season added further thrill to their first year here. Theirs is a promising future, and we are expecting them to make this promise a reality. t f% l vzA nm ■m mm Doris Allen Mercedes Ange Mabel Baldwin Lucille Ballentine Frances Bandy Miriam Batten Geraldine Bostic Jean Branch Carol Bray Josephine Britt Jane Brothers Charlotte Brunei- Betty Bullock Letha Bullock Glendon Burchard Lou Underwood Caison Sallye Ruth Carraway Anne Lucille Casey Ernestine Pickett Clark Eloise Congleton Dorothy Cooper Ann Dail Clara Jay Davis Jessie Leigh Davis Nancy Dickens Joan Drake Rebecca Anne Edwards Frances Elrod Florine Evans Helen Fales Mona Fallin Annie Farmer £T ediMfi Saxe Farmer Emily Ferguson Hope Fichett Edith Fleming Margaret Floyd Pauline Formy-Duval Mattie Rea Franklin Rosemary Fulmer Jetta Funderburk Madge Jutch Frances Freeman June Freeman Nancy Gates Jean Godwin Nancy Gorham Imoeene Grainger Jean Griffith Alice Greene Martha Hamrick Marcia Hancock Betty Harper Mary Cooke Harris Angelea Hatch Helen Havnaer Virginia Highfill Mary Elizabeth Hight Merle Cherry Hillard Emily Hine Virginia Holcomb Ester Hooker Regina Horst Gene Horton l $ 5 9 f € £W A SQ f . - ■ . i 1 af 1 [ytAnfflivto Kathryn Hudson Annie Hood Hughes Amy Ianora Martha [pock Jane Isley Hilda James Martha James Helen Jennette June Jones Martha Jones Josephine Joyner Martha Kambis Sheila Kaplan Majorie Keen Maxine Knight Christine Kornegay Lois Lane Stella Lassiter Cora Lee Lawton Hilda Liles Carolyn Lockamy Dorothy Loftin Anna Belle McCoy Sue McDonald Mary Martin Ruth Martin Dorothy Massey Betsy Dell Maxwell Nancy Middleton Sarah Elizabeth Miles Ruth Miller Delia Jane Mobley v Annie Grej Moore Doris Moore Nedgelena Morgan Martha Murray Zelma Murray Mary Allen Nichols Irene Olive Barbara Owen Rita Paez Etra Page Hilda Pair Jean Parker Peggy Parker June Patterson Mary Trulah Peele Margie Perry Daphne Pope Mary O ' Neal Po Martha Blue Purser Nancy Resch Belle Rogers Albertine Rozar Mary Esther Sadler Angeline Shields Elaine Simpson Frances Simpson Camille Smith Isabelle Smith Elizabeth Snipes Colleen Stallings Eliza Stanley Martha Stanley ©f) C C) £11 jm,W) r @$6 Dorothy Stell Frances Stephens Marjorie Ann Stewart Elizabeth Stilwell Evelyn Straughan Agnes Taylor Elizabeth Teaehey Helen Teaehey Joyce Temple Helen Thomas Joyce Thomas Edith Timberlake Frances Tucker Claire Van Sant Thomasine Ward Helen Wall is Mary Elizabeth Warrick Marie Wathall Dorothy Weldon Ester Marie White Pattie Whitfield Peggy Wilburn Inez Wilson Lois Wilson Margaret Wilson Wandelee Wilson Geraldine Winfree Geneva Witherspoon Julian Wood Bettv Jean eager ■ tf?;3%.JV, ..m« m i Kfyfyr ' ■ Martha and Kennetli . . .

Working very closely with the Council are the Advisory Committee, composed of the Dean of Women. two faculty members chosen by the Council, and the Student Council President; and the Student Government Committee, consisting of the Academy Dean, the Dean of Women, and three faculty members, selected by the faculty. The Student Council, in formulating the rules necessary to promote the best interest of the college community and of the indi- viduals who compose that community, proceeds upon the belief that every girl is honest. Since the honor of the group can be no greater than that of the individuals who compose that group, and since the standards of the college community can be no higher than the individuals of that community make Gloria Anderson President OFFICERS: Gloria Anderson, President; Betty Rose Prevat te, lice President: Martha Jeffreys, Secretary: Chri ti e Webb. Treasurer. them, the Student Government seeks to de- velop a spirit of cooperation and trust- worthiness in each student, and hence, to keep living at Meredith on the highest plane.

The purpose of the Baptist Student Union is to meet the spiritual needs of Meredith Students through cooperation with the local churches in S.S. and B.T.U.. and through special campus activities; Y.W.A.. Pause for Power, Family Altar. Vespers, and informal parties and teas. The Greater Council, composed of girls holding any religious office, carry on B.S.U. activities, and form the committees work- ing with members of the smaller Executive Council. This council, which meets weekly to plan the whole campus program, is composed of general officers, presidents of the unit organizations, representatives from the Day Students Organization, interde- nominational group, the freshman class, and as an honorary member, the Superin- tendent of Carey Street Mission. Charlotte Green President j . ty B IB 1 nn M 1 — 1 i., I v 1 w FOCUS WEEK Tell the bus driver to wait for me is the familiar call of many day students pouring out of late classes. The girls, including stu- dents from Raleigh. Fuquay Springs, Cary, and Durham, have their own council and hold separate meetings once a month to dis- cuss their particular problems. More than ever before, the day students this year have shown that they are an active part of the student body. Many of the girls have held prominent offices on the campus. With the counsel of their adviser, Miss Mary Yar- brough, and the help and full cooperation of Dean Davis and Dean Baker, the town girls have made great progress toward uniting themselves with the rest of the student body. Working with the members of their council, they have contributed to and actively partici- pated in practically every phase of Meredith campus life.

The success achieved in making the magazine more at- tractive and more appealing is due to the co- operative spirit of the editorial staff in com- piling and editing contributions.

Thou art born unto a kingdom, and thy crown is all of light; Thou shalt smile away the shadow and the gloom. In thy path the fields shall blossom and the desert shall rejoice, In the wilderness a living fountain spring; For the blind shall see thy beauty and the deaf shall hear thy voice, And the silent tongues their high hosannas sing. Where the rhododendron blushes on the burly mountain ' s breast. In the midland where the wild deer love to roam, Where the water lily slumbers while the cypress guards its rest, Lo! thy sunny land of promise and thy home.
