The 1949 Voyager is here! Bessie HatzojKJulos, our Editor, and Mary Kniscly, our Business Manager, worked hard to make the Voyager a success. In September, cries of joy were heard at the opening of the new Publications Office as Bessie and Mary called to order the first meeting of the Voyager Staff. They welcomed new staffmen and assigned positions. Ed Dickerson was named Advertising Manager. It was Ed's job to lay out territories for ad men. And it is to Ed that we owe a great deal: he worked diligently throughout the semester to solicit ads. I loward I larden and Sally Dixon drew up plans for the art work. Abstract art, rather than conventional art, is one of the many innovations of our yearbook. Thelma McDonald was named assistant to the Staff Photographer, Ray Bateman. It was Thelma’s job to schedule appointments for Sophomores and Freshmen, and she saw that appointments were kept ... at least she tried. For two months. Freshmen posed for Ray Bateman at the Technical Institute studio. Ray, armed with flashbulbs, was seen on campus and at social affairs. With the aid of J. C. Atkeson, Ray spent long hours in the lab developing and printing pictures. He did a wonderful job! Joining our stall were Jennie Grctakis and Pcrcie Trahadias as typists. They spent many hours deciphering the material presented. Sports Editors were Pat Bridges, George Kiskinis, and Gloria Mirabclla. The trio capably handled all sport writeups and layouts. There were LcRoy Spruill and Jane kcrwick who splashed out posters on wall space. Leona Chcrin, Rickie Flcischman, and Bettie Yamalaki planned the compilation of club writeups. But most of all, the entire staff will always remember Miss Mary B. Gibbs, our sponsor. It was she, with her understanding attitude and interest, who steered us to port. {43} I'mt Rttr—IjJti Right—Gloria Mirarella, Bum Yamalaki, Leona Ciorin. Tiiei ma McDonald.

The stafF of the 1948-1949 HIGH HAT was not an exception. In an effort to serve the students and the college more effectively and to keep up with the new developments in the world of printing, the staff embarked upon a program of changing the method of printing to the more rapid and inexpensive technique of photo offset. Since this was a comparatively new technique in college newspaper publication, the entire staff worked from scratch, learning and improving as the year progressed. The result was a newspaper with the “New Look : a look of freshness and originality that would not have l een possible with conventional methods of printing. Another important change also took place this year. The offices of the publications of the college were moved from their location in the Science Building to more spacious quarters, in the temporary barracks. Here, the staff had the opportunity to spread out its troubles and to decide upon intelligent solutions. One |x rson responsible for the solution of many problems was the paper's faculty advisor, Mr. Rculx n Cooper of the English Department. He often temporarily halted his teaching duties to offer helpful suggestions to the group. In an effort to maintain a closer relationship among staff members, informal meetings were held at the homes of memljcrs, and the staff l)cncfitcd greatly from the periodic seminars conducted by professionals in the fields of journalism and writing. It was a year of constant change, but the paper never l ecame so engrossed in these new developments and techniques that it strayed from its basic aim: i.c., to keep the students informed of the latest news and to further the l est interests of the students and the college. We feel that we have laid a fresh foundation for future publication of the HIGH HAT upon the solid one already formed by our predecessors. We will only lx satisfied that our efforts were not in vain when we learn, in future years, that our contributions have helped future students as much as we hope that they have helped present students of the Division. { 45 } Pint Raw— Lff! to Right—Shirley Bryant, Prooy Johnson, Sinni r v Ackih, Piivu.it Holland.

The Student Handbook, an informative pamphlet distributed by the Senate at the Orientation Program, is compiled and published by the Senate. This year, the Senators planned and sponsored an “OPEN HOUSE” with conducted tours through the buildings for parents and friends. To foster college spirit and co-operation among the clubs, the Senate holds meetings with the various clubs to plan tea dances and other “get acquainted” activities. i M } Fin I Reu —ls t to Right—Peooy Johnson, Siiiki.ey Acxik, M ary NYi.i..

An exhibit marked the interest in arts and crafts; group singing in Spanish, guest soloists, and records provide for the club’s musical study. The club has been fortunate this year in having as its president a native Spaniard, who has been in this country less than a year. (50 } EE I Fim Kmp—I I u Huh- Kohi kt Stun, Sp u r, Ciiari rj Crow .

The purpose of the Forensic Council is two-fold: to master an audience through a medium of public discussions and debates, and to c familiar with world events. In the fall, the Forensic Council lx gan its march with a debate on the presidential candidates of the U. S. Debates were held with the following colleges and universities: Eastern Carolina Teachers' College, Randolph-Macon College, Elon College, and the University of Virginia. The climax of a highly successful debating year was the tournament held in Williamsburg with William and Mary. We of the Division are very proud of the Forensic Council, who were judged the winner of the debate. ( 52 } First Rtw—ljJi la Right—Vm Dickerson, Ann Mu� m , Shirley Acxiss. Luvixia Moore, Pat King.

MASQUERS OPEN SEASON WITH LAURA Presenting “Laura”, a three act susjkmuc thriller by Vera Caspars-, the Masquers showed their ability to produce fine entertainment. The cast included vivacious Mary Null and talented Dick Fitz-Cerald. The play, directed by Mrs. Janet B. Kennedy, received much favorable criticism from both students and outsiders. On December 16, Charles Dickens’ “A Christmas Carol” and Stepchn Vincent Benct’s “A Child is Born” were presented. Ray Bateman and Dick Fitz-Gcrald, student directors of the plays, were assisted by Miss Mary B. Gibbs. Utilizing their combined talents, the Masquers presented a costume dance and variety show in the Division gym on January 31. The success of the dance was exceeded only by the success of the show. When the final curtain falls and the sets arc struck, one must realize that the ’48-’49 season will not be their last successful run. {53} Pint Rou—Isji to Right—Frank Fountain, Ho Gn r.5, William Dittirman, Arthur Thompson.

G. Jackson. The purpose of the society is to establish a forum for the exchange of knowledge pertaining to science and its inter-related fields, and to enable the members to understand the breadth of the field of science. Discontinued during the war years, the society was re-organized in Dcccmljcr 15, 1948, under the sponsorship of Mr. Flowers. Both men and women are now eligible for membership. The society holds meetings each week, at which there are speakers, movies, and discussions. {55} W Full Row—Liftto Right—Iris Mums , Ci.ydi Hill, Sally Moriiiouw. Mr .
