LD 36lp iCeP President and Mrs. Lloyd Miss Agnes DeLano MISS DeLano, we want you to know how much you have enriched our lives, by your ability to inspire in us a desire to do our best. Our life at Mount Vernon is the theme of this book, and in the theme are expressed the symmetry and distinction of design for living toward which you have worked. Because of the genuine interest and friendship that you extend to each of us: because of your kindness and understanding: and because we love you so very much, we dedicate our yearbook to you. VT a C.-K £ orewo} It is a cold December night and as I He here in bod, my favorite star once again looks down at me. For two happy years this has brought comfort and reassurance. On every clear evening this same star has kept a watchful eye over all of us here ar Mount Vernon. In another six months I shall no longer be able to look up from this peaceful spot and make a wish, or maybe even shed a small tear Soon all of us will be graduated, and, although commencement will have its own thrills, the joyous days here at Mount Vernon will be over , leaving only memories to cherish in future years. But how dear these will be! How much Mount Vernon stands for! This is where I learned to study conscientiously, and how to meet what the day had to offer with courage and strong convictions. My heart is filled with gratitude. Here the word ’ happiness has taken on a new meaning. What a delightful experience it has been to learn how to make the most out of life. One soon discovers that this depends upon our ability to accomplish worthwhile things. Achievement belongs to us alone, Yes, there have been times when the way seemed rough, but then the faith and courage of lr lends, I have watched previous obstacles disappear. What fun it has been to exchange ideas with girls from different parts ot our country, and then discover a certain bond which encircled us all, always drawing us together. These fast friendship will last forever, no matter how widely we may be separated. It has not always been easy for me to understand another ' s point of view, but here I have learned the meaning of the word tolerance, I hope and trust that we will be tactful young women in the larger outside social world, carrying a sensitive perception which radiates kindliness and consideration. Tact is but one of the qualities that we have gained at Mount Vernon. When a situation arises which needs skillful handling our school motto will come back to us, He who conquers himself conquers all. ‘ [f we arc not able to overcome our own handicaps, how shall we possibly confront the more difficult obstacles which prevail at times, making themselves so potent in the struggle for freedom that is taking place all over the world today. We need not always agree with a neighbor ' s opinion: Mount Vernon will have taught us that the best way to live with others harmoniously is to respect and admire what each has to offer. Yes, Dear Star. 1 am going to miss many things which have come to be a part of me. here at school, yet there is always the consoling thought that I shall be able to put into practice what 1 have learned here. May my spirit be as that of those who have dedicated their lives to our Alma Mater, which means, making an effort to give of myself rather than to be concerned about gaining a reward or praise. There are new fields to plow and all we have to do is use the many sturdy tools which have been handed to us. Front row sealed: Beaulieu, Munn, DeLano, Longs. Hastings. Torovsky. Koch.

Every day brought a new surprise, which was either a closet door, both room cabinets with mirrors, door knobs, and the biggest thrill of all was the grass which finally rolled out like a carpet and covered the sticky clay. We must have felt like good Queen Bess, although we did not care to have Walter Raleigh ' s coat. Our alarm clocks were not put to use for quite some time, since we were awakened each morning by a symphony of hammers, a rumbling tractor, or a cheerie ‘good morning, ” as a carpenter entered with added modern conveniences to our delight, Douglass Saffarrans was temporary class president during the probation period. The Seniors gave us a test which many of us passed. Our vaudeville show followed; our theme being a Law Court. This drew us close together and made us a single unit with real spirit behind us. Permanent class elections took place shortly when we were on our own, and we chose our motto, color, and flower. The seniors did all they could in an attempt to learn this. But we very joyously won the ingenuity contest held the weekend after Christmas holidays. We were once more assured we could work together. In the spring we presented our colors in the Refectory, marching in the side door dressed in white and singing our class song. A Stairway To The Stars was our theme at the Junior-Senior banquet which we tried to make as beautiful as they used to be in the old school. The Senior Carnival was a great deal of fun and we all danced long into the night on the lighted tennis courts. ui }- C. (a s J JJl 6 onj - - (Lot 1 1 in 1 1 e J It was sad to say good-bye to many of our favorite Seniors especially the ones we had capped earlier at graduation when June finally came. In September of 1947 we returned proudly to take our places as Seniors, and show the Juniors their new home. Miss Delano was to be our class advisor which pleased us very much. At an early class meeting we decided to raise money to aid the Mourn Vernon drive. We planned to reach our goal by presenting several functions. Traditionally we challenged the Juniors to an ingenuity contest the first week-end after Christmas vacation. Very sadly we lost, but we feel pretty sure we guessed their colors. As we look forward we have a fashion show to present and other benefits, all for a very worthy cause. But with a heavy heart we see ahead the Cap and Gown Ceremony, Class Night, the tree planting ceremony and the last, but not least, graduation in June, when. ' With Love and Wisdom We Go Forth ' saying au re voir to loved friends and happy days.

With the change of seasons comes a change in sports: in the fall, hockey and horseback riding: in the winter, basketball and super- vised dancing: and in the spring, tennis, golf and basketball. Along with the balmy spring weather come barbecues, sleep -outs, and poi- son ivy! The college is divided into two groups: the yellow and white teams, or, more ap- propriately, the Lady Bugs and the Black Widows, With the expansion of the college and the growing interest of the students, the athletic organization is striving to increase its influence. {41 f- firs! rott Logue Sjfifjrrans.

The year started off with a bang at the Junior-Senior party, with entertainment provided by the Senior Jesters. The fall season was celebrated with a barn dance in the Refectory. Hallowe ' en found us amid corn cobs and jaek-o-lanterns, bob- bing for apples and, in seclusion, we were told of our future by a gypsy fortune teller. The high point of the winter season was a formal dance in the Refectory which pre- ceded a gala Christmas vacation. Anne Barksdale Hearts were gay on Valentine Day as we followed the theme of the occasion. Spring brought Mt. Vernon beauties into full bloom at the house party weekend held on the cam- pus. The year was crowned with the glowing commencement weekend with everything in the line of festivities from a formal dance at the Shoreham to open houses a la Mt. Ver- non .

The aim of its members is to keep well in- formed on current events, to develop a clear understanding of the relation of these events, and to study the possibility of improving world relations. Talks by authorities on current affairs and group discussions of the members constitute the bi-monthly programs. This year, senior members visited the United Nations Assembly in New York, The group was able to observe the General Assem- bly in action, and through this close-up view saw more clearly its purposes and func- tions, Through this trip the club realized problems of world peace, which have since been topics for discussion at club meetings. ! 44 y =yCitt(e theatre V7 Prestdenf Peggy Masters Tirsf rOLt J ; Elizabeth Reed, Sally Lou Smith.

For years, we try to perfect a graceful technique, then we teach the boys to lead it. Sooner or later, the big night comes. You chase some boy until he catches you, and you have what is commonly known as a date. He borrows his father ' s car, or quadruples with some of his friends and their dates. You finally manage to get him to the club, letting him assume that you could not have done it without his masterful directions. Thus, you begin the long Strugs gle of the night of the dance. The evening is usually only a series of faux pas. As your escort puts his best foot forward, your grand entrance turns into a hurried coat-snatching. You start to introduce him to your chaperone, and forget her name. Your first attempt to sit down is brought to a screeching halt, as your hoop flics up in your face. As a result, when not dancing, you murmur, Oh, I ' m not at all tired. I ' d rather stand. ' You shift painfully from one spiked heel to the other. Before long, the corsage you pinned on your left shoulder, as Emily Post directed, is crushed beyond recognition and you wish you had worn it in your hair, or scotch-taped to a bare shoulder as Paula has done. But, at least, your partner is not dangling dollar bills behind your back to lure the stags. Then you wonder what it is that is tickling your back. Each dance is a five-mile hike in circles, dotted with comments on the orches- tra. on the smoothness of the dance floor, and how Virginia keeps up her strap- less dress. Every one is polite. You step on your date s foot. He begs your pardon. You bump into another couple and beg each other s pardon, A round little creature bounces up, asks whether he may have the next dance; you answer, I would love to.” and get an unobstructed view of the dance floor for a while. Everyone is polite, except the typical Joe Doaks and mistakes Jane for Sue on the dimly lit dance floor, breaks on Jane, steps back, says, ”Ob, excuse me,” and continues his search for Sue. There are many types of dancers who are likely to appear throughout the evening: the slow ones, the fast ones, the ones who fox -trot to jitterbug music, rhumba to samba numbers, and those who never notice the music at all. (In these cases, you really are his ’drag.”) There are those with the pretzel hold, those with the clinch, and those with th e twisted clutch resembling a half Nelson.” Some merely extend your arm straight out and use it for a battering ram. but they are better than the heavy breather who deafens you with his panting. l 5 6 }- Ah, yes. It is a typical big night! Your hair falls from the heat. Your best evening dress has the ruffle torn off and you or your date are continually stepping through it. And, of course, your petticoat comes un-snapped at the most embarrassing moment possible. Yet; when you hear the strains of ' Good- night Sweetheart you whisper. It was such a lovely evening! HANDS By Patty Peckinpaugh dreamed one night of hands: Of workmen ' s hands that toil and strain With humble grace o ' er wood and drill Grim hands that scoff at pain . And then I dreamed of artist s hands As slim and white as ivory breath Fingers fashioning with easy skill Their languid web of life and death. And then my own hands came to view, And of a sudden jeered at me . “We are the useless, worthless hands ' They shamed and taunted me, EGGNOG By Cary Sibert Eggnog! Ah, Christmas! Holly, pine, mistletoe, and eggnog, a sort of promised land that I wait for at the end of the long, dull, drizzly fall The first eggnog party comes at least a week before Christmas. The essence of the holiday spirit seems to issue from the silver bowl, the central point of the gay crowd. There it lies, its rich, yellow surface, sprinkled with bits of brown nutmeg, disturbed at frequent intervals by the eager silver ladle. The first sip glides along my tongue and down my throat, rich and creamy, it is like drinking a small piece of paradise. If, at this point, the eggnog parties would end, I think I should look forward to that first glass almost as much as to Christmas itself. My friends are too generous, however. They must all make their contribution to the season in the form of an eggnog party. Consequently, there is not only that first taste of heaven, but a few more tastes of heaven, several of earth and, finally. Hell, in the form of a disgusting, thick, sweet, cloying drink. -{ 57 }- About New Year ' s Day. I creep into a party with the greatest trepidation. First I peek hopefully into the dining room, but it is always there; lying heavily in its horribly shimmering bowl. I spend hours putting my coat away, then I try to quietly skirt the dining room. The jovial hostess is too quick for me! John, or Willy, or someone, made it from an old, English recipe and I simply must have some. I try to think of an excuse. It is too late. I have the dreaded liquid in my hand, Willy ' s recipe has that same ghastly similarity that all the others held. Once more, I am trapped! Two weeks have passed since that last eggnog party. As yet. I think of the drink with utter repulsion, and still, being human, I know that as the weeks and months pass, so will the bitter memories, and once again 1 shall be avidly awaiting my first glass of eggnog, THE LADY LOSES By Phyllis Klinglhr It WAS A NIGHT when the wind chased itself around the tall, square topped buildings, over the slushy gutters, dodged the dim lamp posts, and snatched up paper to throw in its rage. It loosed its anger in a sudden gust and slammed the old, marred door of ' Louie s Bar and Grill, 1 ' then went whistling by. for it did not know what was going on in Louies, Inside, safe from the snapping wind, it was warm: not a cozy warmth, but a sinister warmth. The air was so filled with smoke and beery odors that it seemed as though it had not been changed in many long years. There were several round, empty tables and from the booths in the dark corners came periodic bursts of laughter. The bar was long and unkempt. Behind it was a lusty mural of a girl, bottles lined the shelves, and a man leaned over the sink, moodily dunking glasses in worn-out water. He wore a once-white Jacket and there was a frayed stub of a cigar poking out of his mouth at an unfriendly angle. He was Louie. Seated at the bar were two men: one at one end, the other in the middle. Both were hunched over their drinks and surrounded by empty shot glasses and overflowing ashtrays. No one was talking. The man at the end of the bar quietly pulled a revolver from his coat. He held it fondly in his hand, turning it over and over, saying nothing. It wasn ' t noticed until Louie reached for the empty glasses. He saw the gun. but was not surprised. He only said. Finally made up your mind, have you? Yeah. was the low answer. When? Tonight ! 58 j� Where? ‘ Ain’t decided. ' Not here! Louie warned. Maybe . „ . don ' t know. The man sitting on the middle stool of the bar, lifted his head and listened. What you planning? he asked. Nothin. Murder? In a way. Either it is or it ain ' t, Maybe, Yourself? Maybe, Huh . . . funny. I was thinking the same thing myself. It was the river for me, though. Takes too long, True. Uh , . . how about letting me in on it. Sounds better. I didn ' t care how I did it before, but now, guess a gun is the best, Why you doin it? I’m in over my neck. Broke parole and knifed a guy. . . , Ain’t got much time. They won ' t get me . . . that is , , , not if I can do it first. Don’t blame you,” said the man with the gun, My reason ' s about the same. It ' s the ponies. They ran out from under me a week ago and left me in the hole. I’ve lost everything. My wife and kids don’t know. The bookie gave me a couple days, but I can’t get that much money, I need six grand, Look, Mac, how about it . , , yes or no? Sorry. Only got one bullet. Just one. Funny . , . you know? How one good for-notbing piece of lead can make widows and orphans, cancel debts, end friendships, and force out the breath that God breathed into you. All that from one puny t unimportant hunk of lead. Pretty speech, but look, I got an idea. I have ten grand on me now. Don’t ask how I got it, but Eve got it. How about me giving you the ten grand. Then we play a game. A game? Are you nuts? Shut up and listen. Now look. Louie has a room upstairs. You and I will go in alone. One will come out on his feet. , . . You heard of Russian Roulette? Yeah. The man with the gun shifted uneasily. 59 y You said you only have one bullet. Well, maybe I’m off my rocker, or something, bur 1 got a funny idea that we were put here; you and I, so we would meet, see 5 I think that only one of us is supposed to go ♦ . and the other will have a second chance. What do you say to giving Old Lady Fate a chance to have her way? She will say who it is ' How do we do it?” Russian Roulette, Only one of the six shots in your revolver has a bullet in it. You roll the chamber, put the muzzle to your temple . , . pull the trigger. You have five chances to live. Its up to the Ole Gal to say who gets the sixth. O, K. ? Sounds right to me, the man with the gun slid off the stool Give Louie your ten grand. He can give it to the one who comes down. Let ' s go. Louie took the money, watched the two men wind their way through the tables and smoke to the dark stairs, slowly mount them one at a time. Then he heard the door creak shut. He cleaned the bar and began to wash. As he was lifting the third glass from the water, he heard the shot. He paused, then picked up a grimy towel and began the usual task of polishing. The door knocked open and one pair of shoes appeared on the steps. They hesitated, then shuffled down. He came into the room, walked toward the bar with bis head lowered as if apologizing for his presence, sat at his place and ordered a drink, Got tomorrows racing form? I got a hot tip on number five at Pimlico. THREE QUATRAINS By Margaret Benners A dry in moon lay low in the sky. The evening star beside her. And walking with my head held high With happiness « spied her , A virgin moon lay salient In a silver glow , Illuminating as went My merry way below . How wonderful to have the moon Shining for wish ' s sake . But . with a heart completely filled had no wish to make. -{60K A CLOSED DOOR By Julia Emiliani H. The FOG COVERED THE IMAGE, but not the sound of determined footsteps. . . , As 1 walked through one of the dimly lighted streets of London, The Dark Passage, I could not help thinking how a darkness was within me as well as without. I was getting nearer my destination, and more than ever my anxiety to kill this man became stronger. I could see through the fog. with the help of a lamp-post and a half-lighted saloon, my foe. It was very easy for me to get revenge, as my rival had his back to me. Nervously, I brought out my gun, which shone curiously like rhe small beads of perspiration on my hand. It took but a second for me to change life into death, and at that moment, when my bullet hit its target, my jealousy was finally at ease. As I turned for my escape I saw from the saloon two button - like eyes staring out of a mass of flesh at me. Or were they eyes? At last, I reached the refuge of my room, where I thought I would be at peace. How I was mistaken! For the first time in many years, as I was lying down on my bed, I noticed the poor and shabby look of my dwelling. Every- thing seemed worn out and dirty to me. The room seemed to press in on me , . , perhaps it was because within me I felt the weight of a soul that did not belong to me. . . , Yes, David Mill ray, I said to myself, You have lost your soul because you have stolen one that belonged to another. Yes . . Yes . . , you have stolen it. The penetrating voice felt like a thunder in my ears, repeating, repeating that same charge. I discovered that I could not get rid of it, I knew that I had committed a crime, an irrevocable sin. Slowly the throbbing of my heart became heavier, as the beat of an old dock. There was not a sound outside in the street. The shriek of the streetcar, and the steady traffic of passers-by had ceased long before I had noticed it. A strange feeling made me creep out of bed. There was something in that silence that I could not bear. Taking my last cigarette out of my pocket, I walked toward the only window of my room, and looking through it I noticed that the lights of the corner drugstore were out. Then I knew that it was some rime after three o ' clock. I hadn ' t looked at the clock. Watching the smoke come out of my mouth in tiny, but well-shaped circles, my thoughts began to vanish away, transporting me to another world, where I felt all powerful, successful at achieving my aim. successful in my escape. The bedside clock alarmed suddenly, sending its shrill scream through me. It was four o ' clock, the time I usually went to work. My thoughts altered. Could I face my life? Could I go to work? Could I go about my daily business, pretending that I did not know about Johnny ' s death? -{61 y ' Johnny ' I said, and burst out laughing. How could anyone know I killed him? Nobody knows of my affairs Yet each shadow in my room seemed to form a figure pointing me out as guilty, until at last my own quarters were no comfort. 1 had to get out. I walked in any direction trying to ease my mind, but it was hopeless. My one thought was: I killed a man. My steps took me somewhere, but I did not know where. All they did was tell of my guilt to every passer-by. Now the little beads of sweat turned into streams, my clothes felt damp and clinging, and in my heart crept a coldness I could not dismiss. Now I knew where my steps were taking me, through no force of my body, yet I could not stop them. Finally they came to a halt before a long flight of stairs. I was afraid to look up, I dreaded to admit to myself where 1 was. but I was sure of it, and could not deceive my sell. I slowly mounted the stairs, and closed my life behind me with the door of justice. FRESH, SPRING FLOWERS By Patricia Loach A CONTINUAL STREAM of people passed the wretched little flower peddler on that raw day in early March. She was one of the first vendors of her wares and received little or no attention. Indeed, her flowers in their gaudy wagon seemed rather sad and pitiful in their valiant attempt to show the first signs of spring. She stood shaking, wrapped in her miserable clothes. One claw-like hand clutched the old shawl about her shoulders. The other was outstretched, offering a small bouquet of daffodils to the unheeding crowd. Many people brushed by her, deaf to her shrill cries of, Spring flowers, fresh spring flowers! Twenty ' five cents a bunch ' until in desperation she began stopping people in an effort to sell her wares. Please, M am, pretty posies for your coat. Fresh yeller daffydils, only a quarter No, no. Don ' t bother me. I ' m in a hurry, said the stout, mink-covered woman. Abruptly, she brushed the little peddler aside, Really, there should be a law against these street sellers. They certainly are a nuisance! And, did you notice bow wilted her flowers were? By the way, Darling, let’s stop at the Plaza for tea, Fm simply famished, And the large, be-minked woman disappeared down the street with her companion. -{ 62 }. The little peddler stood staring after her forlornly, then straightened her- self, she again stepped forward. This time it was a thin young man, almost as poor as she, whom she accosted. ' Please, mister, some bright spring flowers? Only a quarter 7 she pleaded. The young man stopped and wistfully gazed at the little bunch of daffodils. ‘‘Only a quarter for a bit of spring 1 he mused. Only a quarter ’ Then sadly he shook his head and walked slowly away, his threadbare overcoat clutched about him. The little flower vendor pulled her shawl closer about her bony shoulders as an icy blast of air blew around the corner and began to cry her wares in a shrill, cracked voice. ' Daffydills, daffydills, who ' ll buy my dafFydills A young couple passed the flower cart and stopped to look, ' Gee, ain ' t they somethin? Buy me some, Pete, some of them yellow ones ’ The young girl pulled at her escort s sleeve imploringly. ' Only a quarter? Okay. There ' s your money, Grandmaw. Yeah, I guess they are kinda cute at that, Dot. Come on or we ' ll miss the early show ' The young man tossed the peddler a quarter and walked off, arm in arm, with his girl. The old woman carefully put the money away in her pocket and wearily picked up the handle of her cart. It was dark now, and the street was almost deserted. Tomorrow she would again peddle her flowers to the unheeding crowd. { 63 {64 ' r Our Alma Mater glorious , With loving hearts and proud. We croivn thee all victorious And sing thy praise aloud .
