ACTIVITIES WHAT’S NEW? As Robert Owens, Anne Hackney and Henderson Daniels rush through the hall of the Administration Building, they pause long enough to read the latest student notices. THAT COURSE IN BUD’S! Buddy Leatherwood, Nick Parker, George Bancroft dring soft drinks during their free hour while Howard Hubbard waits to get his from Bessie. Johnny Gray is more interested in getting supplies for his next class. Discussing school gossip are George Hylton, John Kingston and others. HAPPY IN THEIR WORK. Mary West Paul, assorts the incoming mail, while Virginia Sneed and Louise Bethea, head of the library, check the card catalogues and files. Miss Paul is in charge of the reference rooms upstairs and her co-workers handle the downstairs department. HOKI HOKI! Looking as energetic as they have proved themselves to be, are the Norfolk Braves staunch supporters: center. Gay Rice, head cheerleader; left to right, Jean Johnson, CarolineSesler, Beverly Noiley, Carol Owens, Norma Owens, Suzanne Williams, Carlotta Duncan, and Anne Hackney.

ll The official duty of the Student Senate is to share with the administration the responsibilities of student problems and to act as an intermediary between the administration and the student body. This year, with Ronny Kledzik as president, Eleanor Addison and Carol Owens as secretaries for one semester each, the Senate has undertaken many other activities. A few of them are competitive sports between the Freshman and Sophomore classes, the annual open-house for the surrounding high schools, sports contests between the faculty and students, and the election of class officers. Senators are elected each semester by the student body. LEADERS LEAVE IT TO THEM! Meeting together to plan one of their more popular duties, the selecting of Hall of Fame titles, the Student Senate does an efficient job just as in other chores. Serving on the governing body are, clockwise, Anne Hackney, Kathy Klak, Eleanor Addison, Jimmy Singletary, Ronny Kledzik, president, John Hightower, Tommy Hubbard and Carol Owens, secretary. Absent from picture are Skippy Hull and G. W. Whitehurst, sponsor. I Most freshmen, at sometime during their stay behind the Division walls, find themselves in contact with the chemistry department. It is therefore quite fitting that the head of this department, Mr. C. S. Sherwood, should be their class sponsor. Elected by the class to aid him in governing class policies were Mike Caprio, president; George Sarantis, vice-president; Jimmy Smith, class treasurer; and Yolanda Grant, secretary. This committee has charge of the balloting in subsequent freshmen elections, organizes freshmen parties, such as the farewell dance in honor of the departing sophomores, and presides over freshmen convocations. FOUR DIFFERENT POINTS OF VIEW. The Freshman class officers show their individuality in this picture as their attention could not be attracted at any one focal point. What are Jimmy Smith, treasurer; Yolanda Grant, secretary; Mike Caprio, president; and George Sarantis, vice-president, contemplating? I A

GALORE f ? ► » QUEEN DIXEY AND COURT! Reigning over the annual Norfolk Camellia Show was Dixey Andrews. She and her court of eight Princesses were selected by popular vote of the student body Left to right are: Gay Rice, Beverly Nolley, Nancy Clendenon, the Queen, Kathy Klak, Catherine Toscano, Mae Jernigan and Margaret Magellsen. A HARD PIECE? The band takes a break to check their music which they are preparing for a forthcoming convocation. The group, which concentrates on improving the sight-reading and general ability of its members than on the perfection of any one piece, was organized by Herbert L. Sebren in 1948. THE WHOLE TRUTH? Claire Baker and Jimmy Gatley declare their joy over the Delta-Gamma annual Christmas dance. Maybe the presence of Pat Helm and Bill Herring of Gamma and Delta respectively has some influence on it, but we would rather think that the students really enjoy these formal dances held by all the campus fraternities and sororities. SHH ! STUDENTS AT WORK! Jean Burlein, Adelaide Lewis and other students use the library reading room, the card file, and open stacks for study and reference work.
