S. horizon. The Class of ’36! The ship has weathered storms and come upon calm seas; through all exigencies it has been guided by the ideals of M. Y. S. Now as we approach the end of this cruise and prepare to set out upon the uncertain voyage of life we want to leave behind us this record as a reminder of the days when we were active in school life and an assur- ance that, although winds and tides may take us to for- eign ports, we will, in our hearts, always be a part of M. V. S. 1936 CUPOLA Alma Mater UR Alina .Viator Glorious With lov ing hearts and proud. We rrowu thee all victorious And sing Ihv praise aloud. Jn loyalty we serve thee And strive to heed thy rail. Mount Vernon, O Mount Vernon! ' Hi rough self to conquer all. You give unfailing kindness If trouble meets us here; You luster all our pleasures And make them seem more dear. Nor time, nor care, nor sorrow Can these fair days erase. But they with each tomorrow Help us new tasks to fare. Like breath of Spring’s fresh morning That lifts the heart to song, When t ' ou rage droops .end wavers And paths seem gray ami long. Will come thy dauntless spirit To help us on our way. Mount Vernon, O .Mount Vernon! Hold last lliy tender sway. The changing years mav bring us Some longed for dream of bliss, Yet memory will cherish A sym pathy we miss. In hours of joy or sadness. What cr our need may be. Mount Vernon, O Mount Vernon! Thy children turn to thee. 1936 CUPOLA 1936 CUPOLA Administrative and Teaching Staff, 1935-36 Jean Dean Cole, A.

Membership in this seminar is open to everyone in the school, Forms students as well as eollcgiates. There are various types of work connected with this activity so girls who are not interested in acting have the opportunity to beomc acquainted with the technical side of production Further study may be made in the Play Production Class” which was in- stituted last year for those who desired to specialize in theatre work. In this class the students are given the opportunity to direct one act plays which are given at various times during the year. The easts are chosen from members of the seminar and everyone who wishes to act is given the chance to do so. All tech- nical and backstage work is done by other members who desire that type of experi- ence. Everyone in school is invited to attend and a small admission was charged at one time this year to raise money for a benefit. In addition to these presentations each activity group offers some enter- tainment for the school and Little Theatre had the pleasure of sponsoring a lec- ture given by Harold Ehrenspergcr, author of many books on the theatre. Four major plays arc also given during the year. This year “I rebound ' by Owen Davis was chosen for the Junior College Play. A play written by one of our students, Joan Phillips, entitled, 1 A Shepherds Play was presented at and presented by the Secondary School. During the year students had tilt: opportunity of attending professional performances presented at the National Theatre in the city. Among these were Porgy and Bess. We owe thanks to Miss Ilortense Moore who directs our group and who made this year a very successful one. 1936 CUPOLA Virginia Turner. [ 8 i ' tf -five | 1936 CUPOLA Icebound In November the Junior College printed their utimial play, Icebound, by Owen Davis. The play deals with the distribution of a will and I he amusing and intricate incidents which are a result. Virginia Turner, as the sole inheritor and unwelcome guest in the former Jordan house, portrays the role of a mistreated and deserving girl very competently and with an aptness which was well worthy of the applause she received, Alice I ' ask, as the “blac k sheep ' of the family and suitor of Jane, captures nor sympathies in the roguish role. Jean Ann Cowton and Ednali Louise Gebhard as the “greedy” Mr. and Mrs. Jordan, deserve no small word of praise. The play itself was very human, touched with palhos and humor, while each and every participant was at her best. Need more ho said than that such a combination produced a worthy success?

Mistaken identity gives an intricate twist to the plot which makes the ( ' Umax exceedingly interesting. The cast and production staff both did credit to Mix Wildes work.

V S. is Student Govern nicnt. This is accomplished through the medium of three governing councils, the Student Co-operative Government Council, the Junior College Council, and the Forms Council, The activities of these bodies are gaining in scope and importance each year. The Student Council is made up of representatives of the different phases of school life, who report on their activities on the first Saturday of each month, (t is the responsibility of the council members to see that activities in these de- partments rim smoothly. The student members of the council receive suggestions from the facility concerning school matters which they in turn carry to the student body. At these meetings the monthly calendar is read and all matters are discussed openly and freely. The members of the Junior College Council deal with the conduct of the students within the college. This year we have had so many more privileges granted us that we have hail more added responsibilities. Each member of the council is res pon si Me to see that the rules arc kept and arc free to make constructive sugges- tions at all times. Problems that arise in the college are brought Indore this council to he discussed openly. A general meeting is held every third Saturday in the month. The Forms Council meets every Saturday morning to discuss the manage- ment and actions of the Secondary School, Each member of the Council is assigned a special department of the school life, and it is her duty to supervise the activities which come under that head. y I MEMBERS OF THE CO-OP E RATI V E GOVERNMENT CO l’ NOIL Jean Dean Cole Faculty Adviser 1 1 e ia; n C.

We hate to see them go but maybe we won ' t miss them so much if we do all the tilings scheduled for us on the calendar. We’ve .just come upstairs from peeking at the Optima banquet. It must be wonderful to be among the select few. The Senior Tea was this afternoon. Field House looked lovely, deco- rated with their class flower, the Talisman rose. And wasn ' t the tea marvelous f I ' m almost dead. Why is there the understanding that everything that happens on the seas must be recorded! We just came up from the Junior-Senior Banquet, Everything was all ships, of course. Mr. Lloyd thought that Texas was a dry state, but Jinx fooled him. For that matter we all helped in dampening the scene, but then we are so accustomed to having salt water around us. The Seniors crashed through in their usual marvelous style and added a note of gaiety to the occasion. Their song to the tune of “A Tavern: in the Town. was wonderful. Can Miss Jean throw a baseball! Yes, we played hall as well as wading in Rock Creek, on our Junior Picnic. Alumnae arc here again. Isn ' t it funny to realize that in a few more days the Seniors will be alumnae, and we’ll he Seniors! Anyway we made the Daisy Chain at lunch time and then all rushed to the Shelter, The Fourth Form graduated this morning. I wonder how many of them will he daring enough to return as Juniors; we are planning to make someone ' s life miserable on Fag Day next year, wonder who it will be. Then Seniors are graduated and here I am riding away on the train, A landlubber for the summer! Goodbye, see you in the fall. Hello! Ship ahoy! We ' re hack. And to help us get started Kay Rockhill drove down with Alice and is hard at work as Mr. Lloyd’s assistant lit getting us all settled and used to our responsibility. A thrilling meeting with Miss Cole in Great Hall. We looked at Juniors pictures and talked about the course ahead of us. Juniors! Lots of Juniors. As many Juniors as last year. We are getting Gertrude Steinish in our excitement. A separate entry is due Great Hall, Mrs, Hutton has played the part of the most wonderful fairy god-mother and redecorate d it entirely. Senior Housewarming! Come aboard our Good Ship, Tonight I felt like a real Senior, a rather ill one to he sure. Heigh ho, up at 6 a. in. to give Juniors tests. Then ended up by having a party in Senior Room, Somehow felt very old and wise today. But these Juniors have talent! Their vaudeville really warrants Major Bowes 1 personal attention. The Faculty asked us ashore for their annual Hallowe ' en party. Despite getting my hair quite w f et while bobbing for apples (someone pushed, rudely, from behind) I had a marvelous time and could find no one who didn ' t agree with me as to the party being the best one yet.

A lovely custom and one for which we all hope to return for many years. (Zimmer ' s cake is one of the most remarkable aspects of the celebration.) Off to Mrs. Hutton ' s. Some of our crew took shore leave and Dr. Kaiser co-operated bv dismissing Survey. Back aboard and feeling a bit like Cinderella, FU admit. Of course our very good friends, the faculty? are giving tests this week. Nice idea. The Juniors elected their officers today. Betsy is president, Domini vice-president, and Annette and Gertrude secretary and treasurer. Con- gratulations, Juniors, with such leaders you ought to do great things. Mid-semester! We work and we cross days off the calendar, otherwise the kittens are leading a quiet life. Thanksgiving and the hockey game. The Yellows worked up their appetites for dinner by defeating the Whites, 5-0. Great industry awakens ! The Seniors have picked their essay topics and the Juniors are hard at work on their exercises by Sylvia.” Friday the 13th isn ' t unlucky this month, a week from today we put ashore for a long leave and we ' re homeward bound. Good-bye ! Merry Christmas ! Happy New Year! What, the whole lower floor of the school has been re-decorated, A lovely Christmas present indeed! We aren ' t sure how kittens are going to like a dog hut Mama Kat assures us that Py has no aversion to felines. Off ton the Library ! Well, the Juniors won the first ingenuity contest, but we won the second. Now for the third! We can ' t sing our song to the Juniors to tel! them how much we know about various things, because they ' ve gone and won the third ingenuity contest! When do we see those famous colors? Started a new course tonight. Mr. Grunewald teaches it, Journalism, of course. I only hope lie doesn ' t peer into our ship ' s log because it may he a record of our doings but I doubt if it ' s art. Isn ' t it going to be marvelous when we get that new Hockey Field? The temperature is rising! Sky top was marvelous! Why don ' t they dismiss school for a week and all of us take a vacation up there? Of course for those sissies who pre- fer the milder climes we might inaugurate a week on the Florida beaches. The class bride of ' 35 will probably be Mary Jo Beattie. She announced her engagement the other day, fancy that. The Forms are having their prom and tea dance today and we went out. Toby ' s for dinner and then to the movies. More fun! Hard at work. Must get caught up before the Tea Dance and the holidays. Three weeks from tomorrow we leave for home. The Tea Dance I Gentlemen from far and near to our rescue. There were rumors that a large time was had during the evening. The exclusive Optima Club held its first initiation and augmented its number by four candidates. A fashion show at Field House completely depleted our already thin pockethooks hut the clothes were perfectly gorgeous and when it comes to clothes and dieting we haven ' t so much will-power. And we ' re off 1 for home! Goodbye Cupola, we must continue through t lie next term without your companionship but we ' ll be seeing you again before the Class of 36 embarks on its next voyage. [ Eighty-nine | Senior House-Warming ' HE first social event for which our ship dropped anchor was Senior Housewarming. The receiving line was formed in Senior Room, in the hall Mrs. Bavlis and Mrs. Forman presided over the punch howl and in each room two hostesses waited to greet their guests. The rooms were festively adorned for the occasion, soft lighting, flowers and a very neat atmosphere com- bining to make them most attractive After several hours of wandering about and getting acquainted with each other even more thoroughly than there had been chance for before, the guests went ashore and our ship weighed anchor and was off for the next port. Fag Day The run lasted but two days, however, for fearing head winds we put in to port to give our ship a thorough overhauling Up at 5:00 or maybe it was 6:00 in the morning and marshalling Juniors down to the hold, was the order of the day. After much pencil chewing and many piteous glances, the unfortunate Candidates were released but not until their hopes of going out that afternoon had been properly squelched. All day they fretted and worried lest one of their superiors appear and ask them the fatal question: “What are the aims? When evening came, the sea was calm and the entire party went on deck for light refreshment hut not until after each of the Candidates had openly avowed her intentions ambitions and aims, to her superiors, The Seniors. 1936 CUPOLA Junior -Senior Ingenuity Contest So, having cruised about and gotten our ship in good order and having become quite certain of our ability to handle her in any emergency, we ventured to embark upon a race, the annual classic, Ingenuity Contest. On the first lap we encountered difficulty and went down in defeat to the Junior Class. In the usual manner we were closeted in a room while the Juniors presented their act for the enjoyment of the school The problem this year was to present tableaus, pantomimes, dances, etc., inspired by certain pieces of poetry which the faculty committee had selected for us. The poems included everything from “The Highwayman to the King ' s Breakfast, We did not see the Junior ' s performance but reports of others assure us that the contest was fairly won. [Ninety] On the next lap, we trimmed down closely and: sailed for all w F e were worth, A one-act play was a problem ! With Valeria ' s writing skilly Connie ' s direction, the adept ness of some of the crew at portraying the insane and ranch good and had advice from various committees, we rounded the second mark ahead of the opposing class. The last pull to the home buoy! Was our good ship nervous? For days w e struggled over songs, sometimes we would hardly speak but still we sang. The fatal, evening came but again the Juniors had nosed in ahead of us Congratulations! So we say, “Youth will be served.” Junior Presentation of Colors The next port of call was made in February and was at the express invitation of the Junior Class. It seems that they had something to show us and didn ' t realize that our trusty wireless had already picked up the news. This particular night at dinner time we noted a dearth of Juniors in Great Hall. Where were they? After waiting a few minutes more the sound of music came to us and the Class of 1937 marched into the room behind their banner, singing their class song. The various members of the class generously parted with their corsages in which the class flower, the Iris figured prominently, and the crew r of our good ship was honored to wear the flowers to dinner. With our Junior escorts we sat at special tables where the class rings were aw r aiting their new owners. Somehow the scene conjured up pictures of the end of the year and the sad time when our ship must sail to uncharted waters and leave behind it the friendly lion. 1936 CUPOLA ( Ninety-one] 1936 CUPOLA Junior — Senior Banquet, 1935 Alma Mater Toastmistress Jane Riddle ft We Have Sailed the Ocean Blue Fruit Cur The First Days Jean Cowton “Blame It On Our Youth Fag Day Katherine Rock hill Consomme Olives Celery Our Seniors Virginia Turner Cutlet “N to Look From The Shore 3 The Squall Tasty Bits of the Year Showing the Colors Chicken, Potatoes, Peas The Seniors The Sails of J93; Toast To The Seniors Senior Class Poem Sunshine Salad M.
