.,-,..-v .-- .-.,,-...,, .- + ,- The Daisq Chain ACH year the Daisy Chain plays one of the most picturesque parts in the Commencement exercises. Chosen from the Sophomore class, as repre- sentative of that group, are twenty-four girls who form part of the procession. Slowly, from either door of the stage, appear girls gowned in long white organdy. Borne on their shoulders is the massive chain of green and white which hangs gracefully between the bearers. To the impressive Commence- ment music these girls move down into the auditorium and form two aisles down which tread Seniors in impressive black caps and gowns, Juniors in blue, and the Faculty in black with vari-colored hoods. The white and green of the daisy chain and the soft white dresses of the bearers make a lovely contrast to the more stately gowns of the graduates. As the processional draws to a close the bearers of the chain move again until, as one girl, they drape the chain along the front of the stage and the stairways where it hangs as the lovely gift of the Sophomores to the graduating classes.

The names of possible recipients have been discussed among the students for several weeks previous to the awards, although the names are a closely kept secret, and there is much speculation as to just which girls will be the honored ones. In June 1933, the following awards were made: The Elizabeth Harrison and the Mrs. John N. Crouse Scholarships, gifts of the Alumnae Association, and given in recognition of high scholarship, per- sonality, and character were awarded to Fannie Nadler and Mary Jones. Both girls have been on the staff of the National this year. The Eva Grace Long Scholarship, given in recognition of a spirit of service, graciousness, enthusiasm, sincerity, and consideration of others was awarded to Jane Johnson, who, in her office of Student Government president, has ex- hibited these qualities to the benefit of National. Gladys Panton was awarded the Jean Carpenter Arnold Scholarship, and she has very ably filled her position as assistant director in the Nursery School. Gladys has been president of College Council this year. The Demonstration School Scholarships, given in recognition of scholarship and outstanding ability in student teaching, and which carry with them the opportunity of assisting in the Children's School, were awarded to the following girls: Janette Gardner, Nursery School, Myra Hedges, Kindergarten, Eleanor Svaty, First Grade, Gayle Wilson, Second Grade, Henrietta McElroy, Third Grade, Esther Kovinsky, Fourth Grade, Magdalene Roller, Fifth Grade, and Louise Warkentine, Sixth Grade. A new scholarship was added to the list of Demonstration School Scholarships last june, the Clinic Scholarship. This is given in recognition of scholarship and special interest and ability in clinic instruction and was awarded to Lois Baumgartner. The appreciation and approval of the students in the audience were shown by the enthusiastic applause after each award. iv 4 Q 1 I l ,51- 1.1 ,J i i . i 1 'br L. wt v. ldi I , i'l'fl ,. l 'i I bil' It ii :4 4 I5 I' I. ,, li ly i k , 2 4 , f .
