Qont nts Views Faculty Classes Organizations Athletics College Leaders Humor and Ads The President and members of the college faculty take this opportunity to wish those of you who will soon leave us genuine success in your chosen life work. To those who will leave as graduates of this college, we extend congratulations and express a hope that your life as a teacher may be an abundant one. Your professional study has been centered around tho instructional activities in the laboratory schools throughout the entire junior and senior years. Your program of student teaching has provided for wide experience in the teaching of subjects and for contact with all grade levels. Two major outcomes are expected: First, your knowledge will have been unified and made functional in a teaching situation; and second, your personal powers have been so developed that your teaching should be effective. To students who have completed two years of academic work, and who expect to remain at the college and complete the additional two years of the four-year teacher-training cur¬ riculum, or to transfer to other colleges where you may secure full junior standing for work satisfactorily completed here, and to prepare more specifically for your chosen life work, we pre¬ dict a bright future. To those of your number who have been here but one year and who expect to transfer to another college at the close of this year, where more technical work may be secured, we trust that the courses completed here will have prepared you well for your sophomore year. To such students as will not attend any college next year, we feel that we have assisted materially in preparing you for the vocation of living. During your stay with us, whether it has been for one, two, or four years, the college authorities have attempted to orient you to real college work, guide you in your studies, and extra-curricular activities, aid in the selection of a life work adapted to your respective interests and abilities, and to assist you in the solution of many educational, economic, citizenship, health, spiritual, and vocational problems. May each student who has had the opportunities offered by our college, ever strive to live up to the high ideals which the members of the student body and members of the faculty have earnestly attempted to exemplify.

CAROLYN DALE RILEY Salisbury, Maryland PRESIDENT The president of the graduating class entered this school with full determina¬ tion of becoming an interpreter in for¬ eign languages. Instead, she has be¬ come one of the finest interpreters of child psychology. SAMUEL S. CAREY Salisbury, Maryland VICE-PRESIDENT A serious young man, with a predi¬ lection for the ministry, entered the class in ' 33 to attain the following posi¬ tions; Class vice-president, vice-presi¬ dent and president of the Sophanes Players, and Business Manager of the Publications Staff. He has done his ut¬ most in these positions, as well as in the Athletic Association, and Carnean Society, to make the school a live place. 20 SAMUEL L. SHERWELL Parsonsbury, Maryland SECRETARY Endowed with high literary aspira¬ tions, he has been vitally interested in the Baglean Literary Society, the Pub¬ lications Staff, on which he held the position of Editor in 1936-‘37, and the Dramatic Club, serving on its Board of Directors. He has the distinction of having been elected the first president of his class, upon its entrance to the school in ' 33. HELEN FLORENCE SMITH Baltimore, Maryland TREASURER Always willing to help, she has been an ever-increasing power in all the or¬ ganizations to which she belonged. In recognition of the work she has done in the Orchestra, Baglean Society, Day Students ' Organization, she was re¬ warded with an Achievement Key for three consecutive years and held the following positions; President of the Bagleans, and Associate Editor of the Staff. She has the unusual honor of having been twice acclaimed Miss S.T.C. 21 RAYMOND JUMP St. Michaels, Maryland A most individualistic person with a keen appreciation of music and liter¬ ature. He has returned to receive his degree from the first college in which he was matriculated. He was active in the Baglean Literary Society. ANNA LOUISE PARKER Salisbury, Maryland Easy to hold the highest in scholar¬ ship, she has twice won the title of the highest scholastic standing member of her class. She has also been interested in the administration of the student body, serving several times on the Stu¬ dent Council. 22 DOROTHY M. PRUITT Berlin, Maryland A small bunch of vitality, she has brought into our college a useful bit of vivacity. She receives her degree here after having studied at Towson and the University of Maryland. FRANCES ROBINSON Wing ate, Maryland A very quiet, retiring person, work¬ ing hard on her studies and extra-cur¬ ricular activities. She has followed well where others led. Her greatest inter¬ est lay in athletics, having been on the volleyball and fieldball teams each year. 23 A new day is bornl Yes, the rays of the sun have only within the last twinkling passed over the rim of the world; their light, reflected as yet from only a few bright particles, has inspired the babes of that dawning to seek a fuller and richer happiness in the living of that day. Toward the enhancing of that sought-after happiness, they have chosen to enlarge their backgrounds, and so to bring into use a larger scope of vision of that day and the next day ' s physically dead but mentally immortal. This happiness, they have found, is not only enjoyed at a cost. In fact, it is even remuner¬ ative in itself. To be happy in one ' s occupation is, indeed, the greatest happiness as yet achieved by mankind. That feeling of know¬ ing a thing well done; of being fully equipped to make the most of the day yet in its infancy; of elation at the knowledge of the fact that one is more capable of enjoying that happi¬ ness that comes into watching nature in its budding infancy with a knowing interest as it proceeds toward some useful end; these all add to the zest of life, but not one-half so much as the feeling that one has in some way (great or small) enabled the babes of the day to achieve more happiness than their normal ex¬ istence would bring into their reach. With the aims: to be able to live more hap¬ pily themselves, and to enable the coming generations to encompass its life in a happier medium, we, the present senior class, have seen fit to extend the term of our life ' s orien¬ tation through the addition of knowledge of the arts and sciences with the hope that in GO doing we may make the light of this day more bright by increasing the number of re¬ flecting facets in the jewel brains of the babes of the next dawning. Thus far have we been looking ahead. But there will be numerous fond recollections and unwanted memories as¬ sociated with the sojourn at this temple whose stately portals in their majestic beauty ever look down on us with pride in our happiness. Can you recall the first moment when you felt the movement within of some new-born plea¬ sure as th e result of a new listening to that unfinished masterpiece? Can you remember the intense self-satisfaction at finding that a great thinker of some past day agrees with your pet theory that all your associates have laughed at and scorned? Can you visualize the feeling of success at having imparted some bit of tinted glass through which some babes of tomorrow will be able to live with a greater happiness? If you can, follow that road to its ultimate end and be happy. Now, with the future a brilliant outlook toward the enchantment of life, and the past medium by which this enrichment is brought about, can we not say we are ready to live today? But the sun hastens on in its life-giving, glowing arc. Even now it shines above the mid-morning with a challenging brilliancy. If we are to accept that challenge, we must be off. Au revoir, if you, too, would seek such happiness, follow. 24 Teetering on the shaley cliffs that shade the valley of Nepenthe, Creeping up the crannied crags that rose above Nepenthe, Stumbling, falling, rising, crawling. Climbing, climbing. Climbing upwards, ever upwards. Upwards, Upwards to our goal, we ' d go. Upon the trembly mountain-mass on high Beneath a single beam of strong, white light. Which showed our weakness and the quaggy ground. We stood and stared into the outer, vaster night. Which shrouded us . . . our light . . . our knowledge mound. Trembling on the towering heights that showed us life ' s immensity. Peering into the darkling mists that veiled the face of verity. Longing, aching, hoping, praying. Seeking, seeking. Seeking knowledge, always knowledge. Knowledge, We, teachers of the truth, must go. Samuel Sherwell, ' 37 25 Leaving the Drury Lane theater, between the second and third acts of Le Monde Apres La Guerre,” my mind wandered over my own ex¬ perience prior to 1957. I thought of the great war, that had completely changed the political map of the world. I thought of my own war career, which had ended so disastrously with the loss of my right leg; then, vague memories of other happier days appeared. Ages seemed to have passed since the time when I stood with the other seven members of my graduating class, and received my de¬ gree. That was in 1937, twenty long years ago. 1 wondered what ever had happened to those people whom 1 had learned to know so inti¬ mately, and who had now drifted far from sight. As the picture of myself standing on the plat¬ form, erect, self-confident, came back to me, a sad smile flickered momentarily on my lips. The war had changed all that. Seeing hun¬ dreds of men die, knowing thousands were dying (far better men than I), had changed my feelings to a truer if less flattering opinion of myself. I lit a cigarette and began to ruminate on my school friends. The last I had heard or seen of them was ten years before, when Sam Carey had removed my leg. They had told me that Helen Smith was married to an insur¬ ance agent who was, at the moment, an act¬ ing captain in the artillery. At the same time Carolyn Riley was at headquarters decipher¬ ing foreign codes, while Louise Parker was entertaining the members of the High Com¬ mission at Washington. The others had slipped out of the picture by then. School days in a different time and three thousand miles away—? A class trip to Wash¬ ington, using four cars; Mr. Caruthers, Mildred White, Norris Bachtelli, and I drove. In my car were four girls, Harriet Burns, Margaret Aus¬ tin, Carolyn Riley, and Rebecca Adams, and what fun we had had . . . getting lost in Wash¬ ington . . . missing the other cars by a few min¬ utes at the monastery . . . stopping the car for Margaret, who was very sick . . .driving home late Sunday, barely missing a huge Grey¬ hound which tore into view around a sharp curve. 26 Then to my dreaming mind came snapshots of those happy, mad years. Twin Lanterns, fire alarms, Crisfield, Pop ' s Schack, River Road, night raids, picnics, doughnuts, coffee, Thomp¬ son ' s Grill, Mayflower, then to Lil ' s, dances and more dances . . . and the undercurrent under the froth . . . Where are we going? How will we make out in school? What ' s the use of it all? And beneath the surface we were being molded, formed into definite individuals . . . the lava was flung into the air by mighty forces, and cooling before it landed, took, each piece, a unique shape. Slowly but surely our class had diminished in numbers. Dixon, Morton, Mitchell, Spence, Towers, Cissel, Howard, and many others were lost in the reshuffle of a new term. The class of fifty had dwindled to thirty-five, then to twenty-two, and after the three-year course ended, only five of the original class of ' 36 returned for the degree course. Of course there were a few others in our group to graduate in ' 37. I remembered Louise Parker, Raymond Jump, Dorothy Pruitt, and Frances Robinson; they had all come back f or a degree. By that time most of us had settled down, were very sedate, and filled with the weariness of the sophisticate; it seems impossible that we really had thought so. About the most vivid recollection of that fourth year was the class trip to Philadelphia, to hear a concert. We had heard Kirsten Flag¬ stad, and had we been thrilled! The ride there and back had been filled with a great deal of comment, especially between Carolyn Riley and myself. The others would join in, thus making it very merry. The curtain bell rang, and snuffing out my cigarette, 1 mingled with the crowd returning to their seats. I walk slowly because of my new leg, so many people pass me on the way. Four middle-aged ladies nudge me as they go by, and upon lifting my eyes from the ground, I behold old friends. Carolyn, Helen and Dor¬ othy, wal king together in gay conversation; they had not seen me, and my first impulse was to let them go by, but thinking better of it, 1 called to them. They turned, but did not recognize me; they glanced through the crowd, and I, suffering from self-consciousness, did not address them again. So, like ships in the night, we crossed paths and separated into the unknown again. After the play was over, I decided to find out something about my old classmates with¬ out their knowing it. Twenty years seemed too long a break to span again in friendship. I called up the Bureau of International Vises, and asked the Under Secretary, who was a friend of mine, to give me all the information which he might possess. He was very oblig¬ ing in the matter, visitelling it to me in a half hour. While we were chatting, he mentioned a message which had come to the office for me. I opened it and read; Gathering of the old clan. 01 ' 37 is painting the town red tonight. See us at the Hotel McPherson at eighteen o ' clock. Sam. 27 I was certainly thrilled. So that was why the girls were together the night before. 1 was so overjoyed 1 wanted to dash right down, but decided against it, thinking that I ' d better pre¬ pare for the night. 1 went down to the Haber¬ dasher ' s and bought a green sweater in stock and a tie—what a flaming hue—then I ran up to my room, as fast as my leg would let me, and dug down until 1 found an old pair of brown checked pants. 1 put on a blue shirt, brown shoes, dark brown socks with red rings, the patents, tie and sweater. Then called up the garage and ordered my car. By the time 1 had purchased a small gift for each of the old pals, the clocks were showing seventeen o ' clock, so without further ado, I drove over to the Hotel. Despite the huge size of the lobby, I espied the group right away. Helen was sitting, as used to be her custom, smiling, and not saying a word. Louise Parker was busily chattering with Sam Carey, who having grown corpulent and quite hairless, acted pleased. Carolyn sat in the center of the group, looking very bored and smoking a cigarette. Raymond had left a very dear friend for the sake of this meeting, and was com¬ menting on those who passed to Dorothy, who was almost convulsed with laughter. Frances Robinson seemed very quiet, and a little sad, though Jean Koch, who was sitting next to her was pointing out several handsome men at a distance from the group. ' When I reached them, they all stopped talk¬ ing. An air of incredulity spread over their faces; when I said hello, they gaped as if at a creature from the other world. The war had certainly changed me far more than any of them, and my heart sank; after a while they got over their shock, and began to chat of old times. Once the grotesqueness of my features had become familiar, they began razzing me, in the old way, about my clothes and my habits. A furtive tear started, for while we were trying to be desperately gay and familiar, it was of little use. We were strangers. At the first hour of the new day, I begged to be ex¬ cused and left with a burnirig heart for days never to be replaced. 28 always in thought word, and deed, distinguished not only for the fad that it was the last three-year classes, but that it was a class in which nc two of its members were alike. Its character, expressed in class neutrals, rather than class colors, have symbolized its individuality.

According to statistics, this allows 1.62 girls for each boy. This may be all very well, but what can a girl do with .62 of a boy? We wonder just what charms or magnets 1. L. D. uses to acquire so much attention from so many different members of B.. ' Fess up, Irma Leel Blonde hair, brown eyes, and a Texas accent! Can you wonder that our men are not always sane? When a boy and a girl find each other ' s com¬ pany so desirable that they share no dances at the sophomore formal, we would say that the Lemmon is having its Day. Wilson Duncan: Anna Rose, do you have your dance program filled? Anna Rose: Well, nearly. Do you really want a dance?” Duncan: Oh, sure, I ' m not particular who I dance with. Here ' s one for you: If IT —Ira Todd and Willamae (according to Todd) equals IT what does that make Todd to Brocato? What do the freshman girls have that the sophomores lack that a certain blonde one can transform a former bashful, studious sophomore boy into a dashing Romer? Is it a psycopathic case if two people named ferry wander around murmuring their own names? What maroon-haired sophomore boy had to have the company of a petite freshman even while he was in the infirmary? These Eastern Shore boys will visit the West¬ ern Shore, even though it has an unhealthy climate, won ' t they, Mickey? Ruby Gay is taking an interest in St. fohn ' s, and Tom White is interested in Drexel. Where is your school spirit, sophs? Who is the thrill of the female stag line? Hint: His last name begins with H and he hails from Preston. What pink-haired sophomore boy with a heavy beard comes to class well-shaven these days? And the razor is bladeless? Bailey admits he hates the town of Crisfield, although the people are O. K. But we thought she was the one who needed glasses. Riddle: Who in the sophomore class talks most and says the least? Answer: Bobby Cannon. 1936 and 1937 will be a big year for the S. T. C. society boy, Hugh Darling. I Did Romeo have horns or fuliet have blonde hair? Those in S. T. C. do. David Perry has found his Cours-ey little difficult, but now he ' s getting Moore out of life. Did Dr. Straughn name his seven and a half pounds of girl chemistry or algebra? Katheryn Gross is Hitching her star to a Russell. To which freshman girl is it that Betty Culver sings: You Turned the Tables on ME? Vivian Ellis is setting the styles for comb¬ ing her hair for at least one person—How about it, Lillian? 40 SOPHOMORE DANCE Carrying out the standards which we set last year for a really good dance, the 1937 Sopho¬ mores provided on January the fifteenth all the essentials—good music, appropriate decora¬ tions, and plenty of rhythmic souls—for one of those evenings of eveningsl WOMEN ' S The sophomore girls still contribute substi¬ tutes for the basketball team; they ' ll make first team some day. Our subs are Sherwell, An¬ thony, Hutchison, and Pastorfield. Here ' s a hip and a hurray for Disharoon who has made the first team and is a sophomore. Of course if Hutchison would devote her time to basket¬ ball instead of Beowulf she might become captain of the team. We also want to advise Miss Anthony to stop sliding down Greasy sliding boards and maybe she won ' t be butter- Credit should be given to Ira Todd as chair¬ man of the decoration committee and to Dor¬ othy Wilkins, Vivian Ellis, and Lillian Hutchi¬ son for their co-operation with Miss Ruth in providing refreshments. All in all, we ' re proud of success and can say Here ' s to more and better dances in the future! ATHLETICS fingers when it comes to making baskets. Pas¬ torfield seems to be afraid to play rough be¬ cause she might Shinner knee. Sophomores, now don ' t get too discouraged because maybe we did do a little better in field- ball; at least there were more out to support our class. So let ' s stick together, and certainly we can make our future years more success¬ ful. MEN ' S ATHLETICS The 1936 soccer team would have been much less successful had it not been for the gallant array of sophomores who graced its ranks. Captain I. T. Todd, who held down the center forward position, was the stellar performer of the season. Inky Davis, hard-kicking full¬ back, ranked with other collegiate booters of this state, while Burton and Hubbard were his able aides in the back field. Rainbow Bailey, Joe Day, Red Circle Wheatley, and Dave Perry were the fleet-footed forwards who passed and shot their way to victory for S. T. C. We sophomores can not only boast of soccer players, but also of basketball stars. Four of the five regulars were sophs, not to mention the second-stringers. This includes such cagers as Captain Day and his running mate, Ray Bailey who, as forwards, wrecked the de¬ fense of the opposing guards. Wheatley and I. T. Todd as guards did fine defense work throughout the season. 41 Sophomore Ravings (With Apologies to Edgar Allan Poe) Once upon a morning cheery, while folk woke, some gay, some weary. In many a drowsy, sleepy village of the sounding shore, While some nodded, nearly napping, suddenly there came a tapping, As of many loudly rapping, rapping at a ponderous door. ' Tis some visitors, J. D. muttered, tapping at my college door: Only this and nothing more. Ah, distinctly we remember, it was in the mild September, And each normal one among us wished himself on ocean shore. Eagerly we wished vacation;—vainly was all calculation Used to solve our dismal station—back to work, now, on the Shore—; On the rare and radiant haven which the dwellers name the Shore—; Books for almost evermore. , And the sound of our own coming to this huge and carven portal Thrilled us—filled us with fantastic terrors never felt before; So that now, to still the beating of our hearts, we stood repeating, We are visitors—long-time visitors, entering at thy college door; This we are and nothing more. Presently our souls grew stronger; hesitating then no longer, Sir, said we, or Doctor, truly we your sympathy implore; For the fact is we were sent here, so unwilling when we went here. That we faintly all came tapping—tapping at your college door— Hoping that we wouldn ' t find you—but you opened wide the door: So here we are and nothing more. 42 Deep into the hallways peering, long we stood there wondering, fearing. Doubting, dreaming dreams no mortal ever dared to dream before; But the silence then was broken,—J. D. ' s smile gave forth a token. And the only words there spoken were the merry ones, Come ini” These we whispered, and an echo murmured back the words, Come ini” Merely this and nothing more. Back now to the college turning. Sophomores, proud souls all burning. Doctor Blackwell heard no tapping, gentle, timid, like before. But instead he heard a banging, heard a loud and noisy clanging. And so frightful this our banging, banging at his college door— That he all but feared to answer—here we opened wide the doors; Doctor, greet the Sophomoresl” Doctor Blackwell stared in wonder at the miracle beheld. There, before him, stately students—such he never saw before. Soon recovered, greetings made he; not a minute stopped or stayed he; And with smile like lord or lady, gazing from their ornate door—, Welcomel friends, 1 scarce did know you, rushing through my college door Enter now, and wait no morel” Sophomores we are no longer, but we finish gladly, for Holding old and making new friends two more years are held in store; And we cannot help agreeing that no living human being Ever more was blessed by seeing friends more true than in our door;— Friends more loyal and more faithful than within our college door. Bequeath we this for evermore . Lawrence Freeny, ' 39. 43 THE FRESHMAN CLASS Row I, left to right: Dorothy Rebecca McCann, Hateva Smith, Kathylee Pusey, Mary Jane Purnell, John J.

WHITE Born July 27, 1919 Died May 26, 1937 BOB WHITE Joyful heart, why smilest thou not this day, When of all days your heart should be gay? Why liest thou so cold, so still. When all your friends are living with a will? Stricken as a woodsman fells a tree. Falling with a crash from all that life can be. Leaving behind you, sorrowing friends. Aching hearts, stunned beyond the aid of tears. Why should this be? That ever as earth gave up its mourning As flowers bedeck the earth and throning The sun, once more in its blue dais; I Thou shouldst leave us, that thou shouldst die. Oh! happy youth, where are your smiles? Where those charms, that were wont to show, Wherever, and ever where, thou didst go? Was it meant to be like this? One last laugh. And then flung crushed. With helpless arms upraised in pleading gesture, Only to fall again beneath death ' s pressure. Goodbye, then, if fate does will it so. For though it be parting, we, too, must go. And in the love which is our God Thou shalt live, until, losing our sod. We, your friends, your family, Shalt be with thee, in God, Samuel L. Sherwell, ' 37. 46 ENTER THE 100”—FROSH Twas a clear morn in September. Yells and laughter disturbed the peace of the still autumn air. The occasion? Freshmen, of course, who else would make such a din? In¬ deed, no others had the inclination. To the upperclassmen college life was no longer a novel event to be embarked on with joy, sor¬ row or misgiving. But to the freshmen it rep¬ resented a momentous event, a milestone of life, a challenging element. First there was the important matter of get¬ ting acquainted. Hey, girlie, how about a date for tonight? I ' m Harry McCann. What ' s your handle? So you ' re Goldsborough! My name ' s Hunter. In such a manner ran the conversation. Then there was the task of arranging a sched¬ ule, sort of bewildering too, to one who never before had heard of such strange things as Al ' s, B3 ' s, C4 ' s, or other goofy divisions. It seems there are devious ways to initiate one into the mysteries of college life. There were rat rules galore; the girls suffered only hu¬ miliation, but the fellows bent to sterner or¬ deals. Then the sophs insulted the freshmen lads under showers to cool their burning pos¬ teriors. Shame on the villainsi But soon the verdant (know what that means?) freshies settled down, except for occa¬ sional outbursts, and attuned themselves to serious concentration and study as well as to the maelstrom of social life with which they became associated. Finally, there was the not so difficult busi¬ ness of choosing class officers. Harry, my boy, you should feel honored . . . and you. Dotty Ann, what would the class be without you? Afterward came All Student Night, the Hallowe ' en party and other glorious events. Who shall forget the freshman formal? What a wow!! A little bird whispers (bob-white, bob-white) that Doc Simonds thinks so too— and fever blisters! Was her face red? So on until the present. The class of ' 40 is now the hub of the wheel around which col¬ lege life revolves, even if it doesn ' t think it ' s one-tenth as good as it really is. Nevertheless, school life rolls on; there is no turning back . . . only hopes for the future. Up at six, to breakfast, to class . . . study . . . lunch . . . more study . . . recreation . . . dinner . . . dancing . . . bed . . . sweet dreams . . . such is the life of a typical freshman, but you must remember that the freshmen of today are the seniors of tomorrow, the graduates of the day after, and finally the nucleus of a nation. We know not what our fate shall be, but, possessing that indomitable spirit essential to success, we strive for the heights. Next year our number may be reduced by transfers or withdrawals, but wherever we are, whatever our occupation, happy will be our thoughts of S. T. C. 47 A LOOK FORWARD On a preceding page Mr. Elliott has aptly described the experiences of the past year. Now let us analyze that year in relation to its value to us as college freshmen and as young men and women with careers ahead of us. At the beginning we were green, inexperi¬ enced, awkward, bashful, and rather doubtful as to what was ahead. We had vague notions of what college life might be and were visual¬ izing hazy dreams of brilliant careers in our after lives. During the past year, through mental and physical gymnastics, extra-curricular observ¬ ance of the big world outside, our aspect of life has been broadened, our confidence in our¬ selves strengthened, and all in all our person¬ ality indexes raised by several degrees. Our grip on the wheel of life is firmer. We have lost our tenseness and are now able to look life in the face and say, 1 can and I will.” What shall we do with this background? Those of our group who will now enter life ' s swirling tide may use it as the very foundation upon which to build their careers; surely it will prove a foundation of bed rock. Then, a number of us will never again enter the portals of S. T. C. as sfudents; instead we shall further pursue our preparation for life in other institutions of learning. There we can say with confidence, ' Tf I succeeded at S. T. C., 1 can do it here;” and the rest will be easy. The majority of our group v ill reappear for another year or another three years within these walls. In that case, it will merely be the continuation of the past year plus a greater de¬ gree of happiness and self-development. So, you see, the picture is bright after all. We are young; we have the greatest opportunity ever offered American youth; and above all we have within us the courage and confidence that only a year in college can give. Let us regard with happiness the memories of the past, industriously strive with the prob¬ lems of the present, and anticipate with joy the pleasures of the future. And in after years may the past be filled with such happy thoughts and refreshing memories that we may be able to pass from the scene of action with the satis¬ faction of knowing that whatever we did we did well. 48 A NOTE OF SYMPATHY The members of the Freshman Class, knowing of your recent sorrow be¬ cause of the untimely death of your largest and most sprightly gold fish, have asked me to extend to you their deepest sympathy. We feel that we may attempt to compensate for your deep loss by being even more alert during lec¬ ture and lab periods than we have been recently. Swimmingly sympathtic, Elmer, For your Freshman Class. CARD OF THANKS Doctor Teacher thanks kind Elmer Eor the sympathizing letter. On the passing of the goldfish On the lonely, empty lab dish On the mischief and the noises Which detract from College Poises. Doc receives the kindly letter As the sign the Class means better. Let the goldfish be a token Of a friendship never broken! 49 Student Life at S.T. C In those years at S.T.C. we were a merry crowd. Remember? It was in April of ' 37 that the Sophanes Players put on their mighty production She Stoops to Conquer . . . On December 12 that the Glee Club made another broadcast over WBAL . . . Rain, listen to the patter of the rain . . . And the Men ' s Chorus warbled unusually well Send my boy to Salz-ber-e . . . In the same year the Christian Association initiated the famous Round Table discussions, and the Grange prospered under its master, I.T. The Bag- leans and Carneans finally got together across the tennis courts—or did they— The Women Day Students at last received new book containers . . . and the Men Day Students featured in chess and ping pong tournaments. The Athletic Association was headed by Caruthers and Thompson . . . Ice cream, sandwiches sang the Home Association at nine-thirty every night . . . And Perkins and the P.S. worried everyone—with camera informality. 51 e Student Council Christian Association tentenwet L THE STUDENT COUNCIL: Left to right: Mr. Thompson, E.

In sponsoring the Second Annual Conference held April 9-10, now recognized as successful, the Council feels that it has demonstrated its pow ' er and spirit of cooperative service to the student body and to the administration. THE CHRISTIAN ASSOCIATION CFEICERS Lillian Hutchison.President Gwynette Thompson .Vice-President Katherine Hottenstein .Secretary lohn J. Bunting, fr.Treasurer Mr. E. Bruce Thompson.Adviser This year the Christian Association decided that the best way to encourage enthusiasm, pep, and interest, was to get at the heart of youth in the theme topic Youth Problems.” Regular meetings, known as Round Table dis¬ cussions, were often devoted to the discussion of such problems as: Does college weaken or strengthen religious faith? ' ' , What is the suc¬ cessful life? ' ' , and Is the Bible out of date?” Sunday evening Vesper Services, welfare work and attendance of various youth confer¬ ences were other enjoyable activities of the year.

The theme of the Christian Association may well be expressed in the following Youth Creed: I believe in the wonder of the out-of-doors, in the inspiration of the stars; I believe in the strength of the hills, in the silence of the night, and in the music of the birds and trees; I be¬ lieve that my body was made for action, that my mind was made for thinking, and that my heart was made for loving.” 53 THE BAGLEAN LITERARY SOCIETY Vivian Bounds .

Thinking ... of history that is implied in what I stand for . . . Thinking . . . Thinking . . . Guess it ' s been a long time since Miss Matthews, Miss Wilson (now Mrs. Thomas) and Miss Marshall took that walk down by the railroad and planned the name of society and that of friend Mickey ' s.

How proud I was theni And the years have passed on—each bringing with it joy, happiness, fun for us Carneans—we sometimes being good enough to win the laurel wreath, sometimes not. Always every year friendly contests: story-telling, basketball, tennis, spelling bees, plays, and in the late years, declamations, debates, short story writing and poster contests. Yet, somehow, I ' ve been feeling sad of late months. They say Mickey and I are old—not needed any more. Not needed—nay—not wanted. Why? Is it because of something that we ' ve done? But, oh! joy—spring is here again. From where I am perched I can see the beauty of the green, green grass on the campus outside; I can hear the merry whistle of the birds come back from the South, and I can feel the warm, warm breath of the sun. And I have new hope—new joy! I am glad for my existence! Glad for all that lies behind me! I am reconciled to the Will of the Fates!

The Grange in this school bases its bid for fame upon the fact that it was the first Grange to be organized in any normal school or teach¬ ers ' college in the Lfnited States. It flourished successfully for eight years, had a setback, and last year was reorganized. This year, with thirty members and a corps of very energetic and cooperative officers, it has progressed rapidly. Meetings were held regularly the second Wednesday in each month; neighboring granges were entertained and visited; the district play contest was par¬ ticipated in; several officers attended the an¬ nual state meeting at Hagerstown; and all state and national requirements were made. The Grange is one of the most effective or¬ ganizations for instilling into young people the ideas, characteristics and problems of the open country. 59 DAY STUDENTS ' ASSOCIATIONS WOMEN ' S ASSOCIATION Rachel Mitchell .President Evelyn Iordan .Vice-President Anyone who has spent any time in the day students ' rooms is familiar with the following; 1.

Jamart or Mr. Benn Maggs, directors of physical educa¬ tion for the college. The ideals of the association are expressed in the words of Mr. George W. Wingate; Athletics promote promptness, quickness in emergencies, self- reliance, control of temper, square dealing and determination—all of those realities which will but enable you to bear yourself manfully into the great battle of life. 64 WEARERS OF THE S MAJOR LETTERS WOMEN ' S ATHLETICS MEN ' S ATHLETICS ENTIRE SEASON BASEBALL SOCCER SENIORS Burton, L.

I have now read every word in it, from cover to cover. A fine set of young folks,—just fine. And after searching for a junior class, I grasped the fact that you were trans—well, can ' t think of the word, but the normal school is becoming a four-year college. Right? So glad to have this book, such fine work in itself, and gives me a perfect under¬ standing of the whole plant, and all concerned. May you, Miss Daniell, and all who see it, enjoy another Evergreen.

You won ' t see him hanging from tree limbs trying to get unusual shots, but you may see him in any odd corner, squinting his eyes and squirming about, trying to get a good shot. The prize is just as good as in his pocket; doesn ' t he have that photo of some of our best athletes doing daring deeds, and that one of the two beauteous damsels ogling the Most Handsome Man ' ' ?
