7954 E REJOICE WITH thee on the occasion of the hundreth anniversary of the proclamation of the dogma of the Immaculate Conception. To thee has been granted the inestimable privilege of being conceived in original justice and exempted from all sin. Mary Immaculate, Queen of our land and of our college, we offer thee dominion over our hearts. We ardently pray that thy mantle of purity and grace may enfold us and that thy queenly radiance may guide us forever. Hail! Queen of our Land, our College, our Hearts. OUR LAND, OUR COLLEG E AND OU R H E ARTS EADS BOWED, we give adoration and receive the divine blessing of Mary ' s beloved Son at Benediction of the Most Blessed Sacrament. These quiet moments of prayer and grace have been the core of these formative years at Salve Regina College. PUBLISHED IN THE YEAR OF MARY BY THE SENIOR CLASS OF SALVE REGINA COLLEGE, NEWPORT, RHODE ISLAND JHegina Maris ss . £Z i CLOSE TO OUR HEARTS Contents Our City College Locale Dedication Administration Undergraduates ftl I % THE SCENE once strange to us is now familiar and in a certain sense our own. It recalls our frequent jaunts when classes were ended and our friendly intercourse with citizens of this city by the sea. ONE OF the city ' s most historic land- marks is the Old Stone Mill. Although historians have never been able to substantiate the claim, there is a tra- dition that this edifice was built by the Vikings. In its solidity and uniqueness it is typically Newport. THE TOWER of Saint George ' s School is a familiar land mark from our college site. W ' ■ «— ! ' ; ■■; ■ Xt ' V j i v s IfV ■sir-+V i 1 ™?

THE STATUE of the Sacred Heart bids us welcome. It stands directly in front of the main door just beyond the porte-cochere facing the main gates. Th Familiar Paths THE FORMAL and the informal meet along these familiar paths. With- in, on the grand staircase, Sally Ann McLeod pauses as she is about to descend. Milady is ready for the ball and the searching eye of the camera. Without, framed in the rose arbor, three fair seniors while away the leisure that comes when ramblers bloom. ALL OUR fun centered on Moore Hall, Though the world seemed wide and fair, For the home is where the heart is, And our hearts did linger there. AN ATMOSPHERE of complete relaxation prevails as seniors, after a battle with books take time out to catch up on all the latest happenings. A NIGHTLY ritual for famished seniors after 10:15 is the raid on the Moore Hall kitchenette. In the immedi- ate foreground, left to right, are Gertrude McGrath, Roberta Dutra, Patricia Shea, Mary Lou Aylward. 12 And Especially LEAVING FOR ho me for the Christmas vacation is always a joyous occasion. However, many of the girls have their interests definitely on lighter matters, as can be readily seen. The snow adds to their high spirits. They ' re off! Our Home INFORMAL GATHERING of the seniors in Moore Hall lounge. This is one of the happiest hours of a student ' s life — we relax with cards, jokes and songs in the evening after studies. 13 ■ - ■■ . BEAUTY SURROUNDS us everywhere. The Ocean, Breakers, our College there. We ' ll ne ' er forget the memories dear, Instilled in hearts that lingered near. SALVE REGINA ' S sign swings to and fro, And welcomes travelers ere they go, It opens doors to college cheers, That help us smile through the years, The lamp above lights the way, Shining o ' er our college night and day. 16 We E DEDICATE THE Regina Maris this year to Sister Mary James, R.S.M., Ph.D., of beloved memory. Though saddened at the loss of her who was our first Dean, we are nevertheless blessed in having an advocate with God during the beautiful days of this Marian year. So truly did her religious life nurture all that was vital in her spirit, that it is difficult to speak of death as claiming Sister Mary James. Rather, time reached full circle for her on December 4, 1953. Her glorious spirit continues to live more abundantly now in the eternal homeland. Nurtured vitality, a spirit purified and made strong by prayer and penance, and a courage ever refusing to slumber in procrastination are concepts easily associated with Sister Mary James. Since her dedicated service as a Sister of Mercy in 1909, her spirit was energized, vitalized by Christ ' s own Life, by close conformity to His Will. And Thy whole Self impart. This invocation to the Holy Spirit was her constant prayer in her hours of teaching, of counseling, and of administra ' tion. The petition kept her ever mindful of the necessity of her own imparting. For hers was the generous spirit of labor without reckoning cost or gain. The price of charity exacted in the exercise of the corporal and spiritual works of mercy was herself — her own convenience, her own will, her own satisfaction. Self must be imparted wholly. Sister Mary James realized this truth in her own living. Once she set a goal for herself, nothing de- fleeted her from it. Whatever the price in prayer, sacrifice, courage, and zeal, her purchasing power was equal to it. Though Sister ' s is a long record of service and achievement, her most outstanding work was done at Saint Xavier ' s where she was principal from 1936-1947, and at Salve Regina College in her ap- pointment as dean from its opening in 1947 until September, 1953. During her eleven-year term as principal of Saint Xavier ' s, the academy enrollment was rapidly in- creasing year by year. Sister ' s administration ably coped with problems created by a large student body and a full program of extra-curricular activ- ities. She successfully co-ordinated student and faculty relations in an expansive curriculum. Sister Mary James departmentalized classes and appointed heads of departments in an effort to make teachers specialists in their own fields. She planned for a creative writing course, a school magazine, and an official student handbook. Complementing a well-functioning club program, Sister Mary James organized the guidance depart- ment, introduced the Placement Bureau, the pho- tography, sewing, art, debating, and foreign lan- guage clubs. During the World War II emergency period, she arranged for home nursing and first aid courses, for aviation and nutritional science. Sister planned an excellent lecture program to supplement class work. Though her community spirit was manifested in her educational work in general, her zeal in fos- tering religious vocations was particularly active. She organized Vocation Week as an annual event at the academy, planned for the writing and circula- tion of vocation pamphlets, arranged for private counseling and for a campaign of fervent prayer in behalf of aspirants to the religious life. In 1947, her final year at Saint Xavier ' s, the academy grad- uated 307 seniors. It was in this same year that Sister Mary James was appointed first dean of Salve Regina College. The work of pioneering the first Catholic College for women in the State of Rhode Island during the last six years of her life was to crown the record of her educational achievements which extended over a period of forty-five years. The General Assembly of Rhode Island granted the Charter for Salve Regina College to the Sisters of Mercy March 16, 1934. From its incorporation until the formal opening of the College September 21, 1947, Sister Mary James made a study of college curricula and organized the Salve Regina College Library. This preliminary work enabled her to lay a solid foundation into whose educational cornerstone went the untiring energy, the unflagging self sacri- fice, and the prayerful planning of an Educator to whose memory the future superstructure will be a lasting memorial in Salve Regina College Archives. The Bachelor of Arts Program with concentration in various fields of study, and the Bachelor of Sci- ence Curriculum with specialization in Nursing were initiated by Sister Mary James who kept abreast of the times in these fields by her study of educational progress in the United States. BELOVED IN MEMORY 17 Sister ' s realization of the great need for properly trained teaching personnel in our country today gave impetus to the introduction of Teacher Train- ing into the Liberal Arts Program of Salve Regina. She effected an agreement between the College and the School Committee of Newport whereby stu- dents concentrating in education could be given the advantage of supervised observation and prac- tice teaching under competent critics in the New- port public schools. The successful completion of this course merits for the student a Statement of Eligibility for Teaching from the State Department of Education in Rhode Island with the Bachelor of Arts Degree. Zeal for the works of Mercy inspired Sister Mary James to set up a Division of Nursing in the College curriculum. The plan included two years of aca- demic work at Salve Regina, and two years of clinical instruction and experience at St. Joseph ' s Hospital, Providence, and the affiliated agencies — ■ Butler Hospital, Chapin Hospital, and the Provi- dence District Nurses Association. When the re- quirements for this course are fulfilled, the student receives the Bachelor of Science Degree. Sister Mary James welcomed every opportunity for field work in the Divisions of Social Sciences and of Community Service. She encouraged all extra-curricular and co-cur- ricular activities which aided in enriching and broadening the students ' experiences. Intercollegiate affairs such as glee club con- certs, debating, student government conferences, current affairs forums, and social activities were always included in the college agenda. Sister Mary James ' constant planning for the intellectual training and the cultural and social de- velopment of Salve Regina students was accom- plished by her all-absorbing objective — the spiritual formation of Marian princesses whose daily prayer Salve Regina, Mater Misercordiae, Vita, Dulcedo, et Spes Nostra, Salve! would unite with the angelic choirs who cease not to give glory to their Queen. To accomplish this end, Sister Mary James form- ulated the students ' spiritual curriculum — daily Mass, Benediction, the Rosary, Sodality programs, spiritual and temporal, annual retreat, day of recol- lection, the celebration of liturgical feasts, Lenten, October and May devotions, and the renewal of consecration to the Sacred Heart. In the interest of public relations for the material, moral, and spiritual advancement of Salve Regina College, Sister Mary James organized the Salve Regina College Guild and the Association of Friends of Salve Regina College. Her work as an outstanding Educator is paralleled by her life as an exemplary Religious Sister of Mercy. Students and friends were always impressed by her courteous, refined manner, by her dignity and sincerity, by her self-sacrificing devotion to duty. Her prayerful life was reflected in her wise counsel- ing in her all-embracing charity, and in her spiritual outlook on every aspect of the many facets of her life at Salve Regina. Those who knew and worked with Sister Mary James could recognize a living embodiment of Jacques Maritain ' s analysis of America and Ameri- cans wherein he speaks of that tendency to under- take great things, to have confidence, to be moved by large idealistic feelings and the desire for the active repose of the soul breathing what is eternal. Though her work in administration was most out- standing in these two educational projects, Sister ' s record of service in the diocese is a long one and nonetheless valuable. She taught in Tyler School from 1907-1910, in the academy at Bay view from 1910-1915, in Saint Joseph ' s, Pawtucket, from 1915- 1918, Saint Edward ' s Providence, from 1918-1920, Saint Mary ' s, Bristol, from 1920-1926. In 1926- 1932 she was appointed superior at Saint Charles, Woonsocket. Here she organized a junior high school and introduced its school paper, The Papyrus. Transferred to Saint Xavier ' s Academy in 1932, Sister taught English there until her appointment as principal in 1936. Striving ever to improve herself professionally, Sister Mary James obtained her A.M. degree from the English departmnet of Boston College in 1929 and her doctorate from the same institution in 1936. Fidelity to her vocation and singleness of purpose brought Sister Mary James to the Eternal God still young and buoyant in spirit. The ebb tide of her earthly life cast her, triumphant, upon the eternal shores with prayer on her lips, a lifelong desire breathed as a last sigh — Heaven! 18 19 20 Jtninistrat o r Il ■!!«: 1 t II 1  J 1 ! H El r ' % ■r w ■ upkt , ■« ■;:- - % THE ADMINISTRATION serves us wisely and in many unknown capacities that we take for granted. Each in her own sphere works for our happiness and welfare. 21 Leader And Guide w. E ARE INDEED grateful to the Most Reverend Bishop Russell J. McVin- ney, D.D. for the kindly interest which has encouraged the progress of Salve Regina. Each year our college has been honored by his visitations at Honors Convocation and Commencement Day. On these occasions, His Excellency, a symbol of achievement, has ever inspired us toward the attainment of the ideals of Cath ' olic womanhood. May God shower His choicest blessings upon one of His most valiant sons — our revered Bishop! 22 REVEREND GERALD F. DILLON, L.L.D., conducts a class in philosophy. Black- board illustration of affirmation and negation makes concrete an otherwise difficult law in logic. The training of minds in logical procedure is a vital necessity in the gaining of philosophical knowledge. And Our Friends REVEREND JOHN SHEA, A.B., looks up for a moment from his theology text. His classes are intro- duced to Saint Thomas through his quiet enthusiasm and his clear inter- pretation. The teachings of the Church are the foundation stones for Catholic living. 23 EDUCATION SEMINAR is in full swing. Sister Mary Emeria, R.S.M., M.A., watches for high points in discussion group. Mary Casey, Elizabeth Brown, Anna Fingliss, Elizabeth Burns, Arlene Sullivan, Estelle Daglis, and Gertrude Barry are at the moment weighing in the balance the opin- ion expressed by Alicia Donahue. Who Have EDUCATION HAS roots in the far distant past. Its evolution and contribution to the present era is a necessary subject for would be teachers. Sister Mary Evangelista, R.S.M., Ph.D., endeavors to impress Fausta Quental, Margaret Mullaney, and Elizabeth Shay with the historical foundations. WORLD HISTORY is an intriguing sub- ject, girls! says Sister Mary Martina, R.S.M., Ph.D., as she interests Teresa Her- nandez, Lillian Igo and Mary Jane Murphy in the progress of the Roman Empire while Sophia Pappas and Maureen Murphy look on from their seats. SISTER MARY CHRISTOPHER, R.S.M., B.A., checks the list for Red Cross Motor Corps with Mary Casey. A project in sociol- ogy is part and parcel of Sister Mary Chris- topher ' s program for the year. On this occasion a group of handicapped children are to be entertained at a party at Salve Regina. 24 THE H-BOMB? No, indeed, just Sister Mary Constance, R.S.M., M.A., supervising Rydia Almy ' s demonstration of one method of preparing hydrogen to Maureen Murphy, Theresa Fisher, Alice Fee, Katherine Bra- ney and Beverly Hayes, members of the chemistry class. Guided Us GIVE ME AN ounce of civet; good apoth- ecary . . . Is this the type of test solution which Sister Mary Philemon, R.S.M., A.B., distributes to Dorothy Kehew, Barbara Faris, Alice Corey, and Susan Chen, a group of analytic chemistry students? KILROY IS HERE again, but it is not Hallowe ' en! He is an important visitor in the anatomy class and must be handled with care. Do you know all his bones? Sister Mary Donalda, R.S.M., R.N., B.S. in Nursing Ed., insists that Virginia Saccoccia, Margaret Gomez, Cathleen Earley and Anne McGowan examine him minutely. SISTER MARY AUGUSTINE, R.S.M., M.S., N. Ed., busies herself with the welfare of our student nurses in the field afar at Saint Joseph ' s Hospital in Providence. Besides her teaching duties, Sister encourages, ad- monishes, and safeguards the would-be RN ' s in their various activities and ever- varied schedules. 25 MILADY WILL look real chic if this works out all right! Sister Mary Martha, R.S.M., Ed.M., makes the Home Economics labora- tory a beehive of activity as she explains a detail in the construction of a pattern to Joan Carney and Myrna Clancey. DEMONSTRATIONS are in order in the Home Economics Laboratory. Sister Mary Kathleen, R.S.M., ED. M., explains the osterizer to an attentive group. Lucille Mathieu, Gertrude McGrath, Mary Elizabeth Murray, Mary Virginia Li, Joan Halligan, and Janice Hurley, all members of the class of ' 54, learn something new. Through CALCULUS ADVANCES! So Mary Silvia indicates to interested would-be mathemat- ics majors, Fausta Quental and Jane Hale. Sister Mary Rose Agnes, R.S.M., M.A., ap- proves and the mathematics session makes progress in the weekly combat with ad- vanced calculus. 26 THE FRESHMEN venture into college Mathematics is under the guidance of Sister Mary Clarice, R.S.M., B.A. Quadratic equa- tions are in the balance or are they? Anna Damiano thinks so, and proves it to Barbara Faris and Caroline Swetnam. EN ROUTE TO hell via Dante ' s Inferno, Sister Mary Jean, R.S.M., M.A., as Virgil, guides Estelle Daglis, Jane Quinton, Vir- ginia Balf, and Constance Lynch along the labyrinthine path. Their journey includes such whistle stops as Limbo, the City of Dis, Nether Hell, and the Hell of Giants. THE AMERICAN scene for the ail-Ameri- can girl in American literature is synony- mous with papers, corrected and to be re- vised. Cynthia Bernardoni and Sister Mary Donald, R.S.M., M.A., hold a consultation on what to do and how in the matter of construction. Eleanor Taft, Joan Langhorn, and Phyllis McCaughey are interested spectators. - H p -T i 3 ■ ■ TheY, ears AN APPRECIATION of French literature calls for an appreciation of French locale from the historical and cultural viewpoints. Le Nout Saint Michel is the illustration Sister Marie Pierre, R.S.M., Ph.D., has at hand for a group of Freshmen students — Anna Damiano, Mary O ' Brien, Sheila Mc- Enness, and Maureen O ' Rourke. THE RECORDER will get you if you don ' t watch out. It proves fascinating to students in Spanish class. Sister Mary John Francis, R.S.M., B.A., shows its inner workings and value to those eager to perfect their Span- ish accents — Sheila Dugan, Holly Hollister. and Mary McAlice. MUSIC DOESN ' T go round and round in this case. Perfect technique is the basis for music which charms. Holly Hollister re- ceives a lesson on correct hand placement from Sister Mary Rosina, R.S.M., M. Music. Sheila McEnness, Mary Nerbonne, and Mary Ann Barrett take advantage of the occasion. THE PHASES of art are almost without limit. At the moment Sister Mary Mercedes, R.S.M., M.A., explains the intricacies of silk screening to eager art majors. Are there any questions? Mary Mclntire, Mar- garet Mullaney, Jane Howell, and Sally Ann MacLeod wish to try their skill. OfO ur DITTO, DITTO! Is there anything to ditto today? Sister Mary Venard, R.S.M., Ed.M., shows Hazel Sullivan each hidden spring and gadget. Lest time be wasted Frances Al- monte types the master sheet. The ditto is hungry and it must be fed. HOW MANY words per minute? That is the momentous question. Sister Mary Oth- ilda, R.S.M., M.A., takes count of each second for Claire Randall. Mary Mondi, Madeline Saccoccio, and Eleanor Reyes also form part of this break the speed class. There are no fines demanded here. 28 LIBRARY HOURS are precious hours. Books on reserve; books to be signed out; books to be catalogued; new books and old for reference, for entertaining reading, for study. Sister Marie Therese, R.S.M., Ed.M., presents a book to Anne Manning, junior English major. BASKETBALL SEASON carries the urge to shoot a basket. Mercy Hall is the scene of this bit of college activity. Miss Eileen McSoley, B.A., physical education director, instructs Elizabeth Quarnstrom and Roberta Walsh on the correct position for a foul shot. College Life MISS GLORIA ZOLIK, obstetrics; Mrs. Gertrude Ma- guire, medical and surgical supervisor; Miss Dorothy Carvalho, pediatrics, and Miss Lucille Sullivan, educa- tional director, instruct our student nurses at St. Joseph ' s Hospital. Each in her own field endeavors to train and mold minds in the art of nursing techniques and knowledge. P ■ 1 1 _ 1 _ J Especially Our DEAN OF STUDENTS V_y NE WHO HAS been indefatigable in her efforts to make the years at Salve Regina spiritually and materially profitable is Sister Mary Constance, R.S.M. Dean of Students. Sister ' s sincerity, graciousness and keen sense of fairness have won her the admiration of the entire student body. To the Class of 1954, however, Sister has meant much more than the title Dean of Students would imply. Faithful friend and confidante, she has guided us gently but firmly through collegiate joys and sorrows. Cheerfully, prayerfully, motherly, she has pro ' ferred sympathetic and sage counsel to all who seek it. Her inspiring example of the ideals of Catholic womanhood will be indeli- bly and gratefully remembered! 30 Frances Almonte Cranston, Rhode Island A. B.

W 1 iS w THE MARIAN YEAR opened on December 4 with a special ceremony in the Great Hall. The Class of 1954 arranged this impressive program at which the student body renewed their devotion to Our Lady. 1 HE YEAR OF MARY, 1954, is a special year of grace for us at Salve Regina. The Sodality opened the Marian Year on December 4, 1953. In accordance with the Holy Father ' s wish, public honor has been given to Mary each succeeding month. Mary in the family, Mary in the liturgy, Mary in the apostolate, Mary, our Mother — all varied in theme but all are in love and devotion to God ' s Mother and ours. Our Lady ' s medal with the college seal commemorates this year at our college. 80 Accept Our Youthful, I T IS A NATURAL tendency of the human soul to disclose one ' s secrets to a bosom friend. It is with our Divine Friend, Our Lord, and His Blessed Mo- ther that we converse in mental prayer during a series known as the Sodality Hour. Students volun- teer to spend one-half hour each week to learn the methods of mental prayer. We are guided toward living the liturgy, by public prayer and worship, such as the Living Ros- ary. Sister Mary Jean, R.S.M., our moderator, has organized the discussion groups, whose objective is to vitalize their own spiritual living and to cultivate a Catholic outlook. PAULA ROCHE, in the name of the whole student body, lights the candle commemorating the first week of Advent on the Advent Wreath. IN THE BEAUTIFUL simplicity of our Christ- mas crib we commemorate the birth of our Redeemer. Here we place our adoration, our love, and our petitions.

This as- pect also enforces the duty of Christian charity toward the less fortunate in human society. Our annual Mission bazaar and Christmas party are con- crete means of educating us in this respect. Work- ing together with a common objective is part of Sodality training. Our progress has been stimu- lating. THE SODALITY Christmas party known as the Children ' s Hour brought joy and happiness to many underprivileged children. Maureen O ' Rourke, freshman, impersonated Santa. r , Be They Dignified T. HE FOUNDATION stones of student govern- ment are formed by the work of the student council. The council is composed of the student council offi- cers, presidents, and representatives of each class and the N.F.C.C.S. Delegate. Under Sister Mary Martina, R.S.M., the council meets weekly to dis- cuss the development of student government, govern student activities and student funds. Hand in hand, students and faculty work together to maintain the ideals of our college. Each member has a say in the government. Thus student government helps to build character and becomes a stepping stone towards our goal. PAULA ROCHE is presiding over the weekly student council meeting. Attending the meeting is Joan Langhorn, Shirley Lopes, Sally Ann MacLeod, Margaret Kelly, Claire Randall, Madeline Saccoccio, Anne Manning. Standing is Constance Lynch, Joan Halligan, Irene McLean, Mary E. Casey, and Helen Rigney. JOAN HALLIGAN, vice-president of Student Council, consults Mary E.

What will you have — the happy or the plaintive, the soul-stirring or the fanciful? This galaxy of stars awaits your choice. 86 Filled With The Joy Of Living X HE QUEEN ' S Choristers play an important part in our college life. Serious or gay in mood, the choristers interpret the musical score with exact precision in shading and accent. Radio broadcasts and television performances as well as Concerts within the college precincts are on the schedule for each academic year. Practices in Mercy Hall form the necessary back-stage work. Let us glance back through the years. With gaiety of song the choristers held an inspiring joint con- cert with Providence College, followed by an ever remembered festival with Manhattan Co llege. In the spring, Boston College added to the joys of a great musical year of song. The Treasury of Song broadcast has added to our successful achievements. And we shall not forget the sextet who journeyed to Vermont to participate in a choral festival esta- blishing musical history for the college. Sincere appreciation to Sister Mary Rosina, R.S.M., our moderator, and Mrs. Heywood, direc- tor, whose tireless efforts have made the Glee Club what it is today. GOOD OLD-FASHIONED harmony!

Here the Home Econ- omic Club combines work with play. At the initi- ation they sew into the pattern new members and, between lectures and Christmas parties, they con- duct cake sales. Under Sister Mary Martha, R.S.M. and Sister Mary Kathleen, R.S.M., our club has woven together a tapestry of many memories. HOME ECONOMICS Club is cele- brating her annual initiation of new members. Theresa Fisher is lighting the Bedde Lamp. COOKIES were baked, and punch was made as we prepared to enter- tain Rhode Island University Home Economics Club. A picture of the two clubs joined another milestone in our club ' s career. INDUSTRIOUSLY we work. Ginny, Myrna and Dottie are studying the patterns in clothing.

Sister Mary John Francis, R.S.M., the club moderator, de- votes much of her time and energy to keep the club the great success it now is. Spanish Club 91 MRS. DUNTON deftly applies a bit of makeup as Paula Roche eagerly awaits curtain call. Regina Players ) STROMBOLI and company! The memory of this original operetta, The Two Marionettes, evokes a bit of nostalgia and not a few hearty chuckles. %. :%. 1 THE CAST OF the highly successful Shubert Alley in full regalia! Played against the hectic panorama of New York City we were afforded an opportunity to run the gamut of emotions. JL HERE IS NO business like show business. How true that is to every member of that sterling group — the Regina Players. The house lights dim. A hush falls over the audience. The curtain rises and a new commanding performance is given by our own sock and buskin group The performance, line and action perfect is the result of many hard hours of practice. The smell of grease paint, the sparkle of tinsel and sequins, the warm applause, the love of drama — all reach the audience. All the anticipation and pre-curtain butterflies are soon forgotten through the knowledge that we have another hit. Ebb Tide STAFF MEMBERS seek layouts in files and discussion of ideas. REMINDING sophomore writers of copy dead- line, Jane Quinton distributes assignments. X2-BB TIDE HAS reached its sixth birthday with our class, and the staff members have been eagerly- trying to nourish the little paper, with good por- tions of news, and a steady diet of highly successful writing combined with nutricious tid-bits of daily chatter of the campus. The guardian of this enter- prise has been Sister Mary Donald, R.S.M., who has been the constant inspiration for its rapid progress. Without this publication, the students would be lost for an official record of the happenings both of academic and extra curricular concerns. GROUP conference — destined to evolve another issue of Ebb Tide. INSURING accuracy and speed in production are excellent typists. ROBERTA DUTRA, staff artist, ponders last minute sketches. STAFF MEETING: Marian Estes, Associate Editor; Susan F. Whalon, Editor-in-chief; Mary Theresa Silvia, Photography, and Margaret Mary McCann, Associate Editor. Regina Maris M.EET THE DEADLINE— thus the duty of the Regina Maris staff begins. The assignments handed out, work begins. Scouting a story here, in- terviewing there and pounding many a beat down the hallowed halls, each staff member has her duty; each, her objective. All this is accomplished with a smile and a determination. The journey proves difficult at times. The path seems narrow but the shining goal looms bright before the crowning glory of a successful memory of college days — our days. GERTRUDE McGRATH, Ads and Patron s, emphasizes a letter for Frances Almonte. HAZEL SULLIVAN, Joan Cullinan, and Sally Ann McLeod discuss some preliminary plans for Regina Maris. 95 HAZEL SULLIVAN types out a term paper, one of the projects of the Business Club, while Frances Almonte aids in the spelling. MARY THERESA HWA, a member of the business department instructs Eleanor Reyes in the operation of the mimeograph machine. Mary Theresa is an expert. B usmess Club J. HE F.B.L. Club is established in accordance with the principles advocated by the United Business Ed- ucation Association, the National Office Manage- ment Association, and the Catholic Business Educa- tion Association. Red pencils, carbon paper, ink erasers, ditto fluid, earphones — these are the tags of an F.B.L. member! Through lectures from lead- ers in various business fields, through trips to see business in actual operation, and through the phil- osophy of the Popes ' Encyclicals on Labor and Capi- tal, Sister Mary Venard, R.S.M. hopes to develop competent business women. JOAN KANE explains re- visions in the club ' s consti- tution. Those looking on are, seated: Teresa Hernan- dez, Helen Rigney, Judith Albanese, Virginia B o i s - vert; standing, Eleanor Hackett, Claire Randall, Margaret Kelley, Moira Mc- Enness, Lillian Igo, and Mary O ' Brien. 96 WENDING their way to Mercy Hall: Joan Inman, Marguerite Rynn, Elizabeth Hoffman, Mar- garet West, Patricia Walsh, and Rita Boucher. HEADING THE college ' s Student Nurses Or- ganization are Joan Inman, secretary; Eliza- beth Hoffman, president; Rita Boucher, treas- urer, and Margaret West, vice-president. THERE ' S MORE than meets the eye here! say Sandra Stein, Anne McGowan, Joan Vargas, Virginia Saccoccia, Cathleen Early, Margaret Gomez, Irene McLean, Carol Radcliffe, and Joan Murphy. 1 HE STUDENT NURSES ' Organization of Salve Regina College is made up of the freshman and sophomore nurses at the college and the junior and senior nurses at the affiliating hospitals. The main objective of this group is to co-operate with all nursing organizations in the country to make nursing a recognised profession throughout the world. Nurses Organization 97 Commuters ' Club I N ITS FOURTH year of operation, the Com ' milters ' Club has made rapid strides towards becom- ing a permanent organization at Salve Regina. At the beginning of the year the club members wel- comed all the Freshmen but in particular the day hops. These new members soon found a place in the group and an opportunity to display their talents and abilities. Although a great deal of the day hops ' energy is spent in catching taxis and buses, they always have a reserve supply for their studies and college activities. ARLENE SULLIVAN, treasurer, and Alicia Dona- hue, secretary, check date on social calendar. Absent when picture was taken Marian Estes, president, and Constance Casey, vice- president. THE SHORT LINE— famil- iar to our commuters. Here Maureen McGarrity, Irene Reese, Barbara Faris, Anna Fingliss, and Margaret West are en route from Newport bus station. THE FOOT of the stairs is a favorite gathering place. Here a group of Freshman commuters are surprised hy the camera. .. A CLASS in nursing arts is in progress. Cecilia Maney demonstrates the proper administration of medicines to the patient Maureen Davis as Barbara O ' Neill watches. X 1 Nursing Activities T, HE NURSING profession is a challenge to us and an acceptance of responsibility which at first we do not realise. Our training, our study, our active practice, our dedication under God to this great vocation of mercy and kindliness toward those who are suffering — all these refashion us and bring to their fullness patience, perseverence, gentleness and exact discipline in the fulfillment of our duties. CAROLINE WOODS, Cecilia Maney, Joan Kilduff, Barbara O ' Neill, Maris Toppa and Maureen Davis review their anatomy and physiology classes with Geraldine Barry as leader. BAG TECHNIQUE— the care of a patient in the home finds its place in nursing service. Claudette Peladeau cares for Maureen Davis in the pres- ence of interested spectators, Barbara O ' Neill, Mary Lehane and Cecilia Maney. HERE WE have Mary Louise Aylward in- structing her second graders in a reading les- son. The eager young man at the right has failed to attract her attention as yet. Look his way, Mary Lou. 102 Teachers Activities OCHOOL DAYS as teachers differ from school days as students. The nine student teachers have had experimental knowledge of both spheres of action. New experience behind ths desk called for poise, self-confidence and hard work. An apprecia tive smile from some little child, a sense of accom- plishment now and again helped to balance the wearisome moments. School days behind the desk are cherished. EDUCATING the young citizens of America. Susan Whalon is teaching her fifth graders music notes in Carey School. Teacher ' s training is another step toward graduation for education majors. JUNIOR Michaelangelos happily color away under the direction of Jean Wilson at Cogges- hall School. What teacher could ask for more eager and contended pupils? UNITED NATIONS DAY brought the International Relations Club into focus. Phyllis Mc- Caughey and Margaret West hold the banner while Virginia Boisvert, Joan Langhorn, Elaine Maggiacomo, Madeline Saccoccio, Barbara Harris, Mary Mondi, Irene Reese, Joan Kane, Claire Randall, Marian Estes, Jane Quinton, Carolyn Woods, and Marie Munoz study pamphlets. International Relations WHAT ' S NEW? If you really want to know, con- sult our I.R.C. Club. Here we see girls preparing for a debate. DR. HENRY F. NUGENT guides Joan Langhorn, Vir- ginia Boisvert, and Elaine Maggiacomo i n selecting material for their debate. I INTERNATIONAL RELATIONS is the vital problem in world affairs. The International Rela- tions Club endeavors to train students in sharing their opinions on current events and to aid them in establishing a critical attitude toward such happen- ings. This exchange of ideas creates good citizen- ship and reaffirms the Catholic point of view. 105 AN INFORMAL moment on Honors Convocation Day gives the oppor- tunity for a group of seniors to chat with our bishop. And Finally These OCTOBER brings the living rosary. This time it is the world rosary with the decades representing the different continents. The Sophomore student nurses were privileged to form the Our Father. 106 i CLAUDETTE PELADEAU, Class President, Sophomore year, leads classmates as we carry the laurel chain for our Big Sisters on their Class Day. Cherished Memories EACH WEEK in May brought a crowning for our Lady. This time Constance Lynch, president during our junior year, has the honor. OUR NURSES are capped with the Mercy cap in the third year of their studies. THE SOCIAL highlight of our Fresh- man year was our first college ball, The Court Cotillion. Mary Lehane was crowned queen, with Hazel Sulli- van and Mary Silvia as her court. Her escort was Tom Chick Murphy. BUTTERFLIES! If the walls could only talk! Our costumes ranged from old cur- tains to precious velvets — and then an- other opening of another show When Shakespeare Ladies Meet. THIS SEEMS to be a shared conversa- tion. Lucille Mathieu and Barbara O ' Neill leave Constance Lynch and Mary Virginia Li to guess what the joke is. ELECTION YEAR led to many heated discus- sions in Moore Hall. Obviously the candidate endorsed by Liz, Sallyann, and Bettye was victorious. 108 A HIGHLIGHT of the Spring Week- end was the scenic boat trip through Newport Harbor. Skirting its many picturesque sandy beaches and cliff walk, we had a glorious day and abso- lutely no seasick cases. THE DINNER dance was part of the famous Spring Weekend. The state dining room was a fitting setting for this happy event. NOT DONE YET says Frances Hamilton to her eager classmates, Joan Cullinan, Jane Quinton, and Marian Estes, as they hungrily await their hot dogs at the Senior-Junior roast. SALLY ANNE MacLEOD, Sapphire Ball Chairman, steps through the ring that recalls a night to remem- ber. CONSTANCE LYNCH, junior class president, turned the tassels with the strains of Where oh where are the gay young juniors safe now in the senior class. JOAN HALLIGAN, Paula Roche, Joan Cullinan and Mary Elizabeth Murray pose outside snow-covered Mercy Hall. HAPPY TIMES are depicted on our faces as we all grouped together with Sister Mary Constance, our house mother in Mercy Hall, Freshman year. tfl L vM m jr i ■ ■ 2b W - If E H M il L. TYPICAL EVENING 8-10:15 in Moore Hall with the girls discussing their daily chores. We must admit the night attire won ' t take too many prizes. AT THIS POINT, we lost one of our classmates, whose bridal shower we all attended. Here, all join in a toast to the bride, Barbara Brennan. OCTOBER TEA dance found us gay and carefree. Freshmen found our social activity for the month re- freshing and we were happy to meet all the student body in this first function of the school year. Ill HERE IT IS again— the so well liked annual sale of the goodies. Liz, Joan, Therese and Ginny serve Mary and Peg. COMPLETE surprise is registered here. A candid shot to say the least. Certainly the gallant gentlemen will fix things right in short order. CLANCY lowered the boom on Saint Patty ' s Day. Joan Halligan, Paula Roche, Virginia Balf, and Connie Lynch sang and performed to their heart ' s content. INCOGNITO on Thursday, October 29 — This get-to-gether brought much fun and comradeship. Who ' s who? That is the question and you would be surprised at the answer. IMMA CULATE QUEEN OF OUR HEARTS, KEEP US CLOSE TO THEE 113 ™it -.txta mapcc rATW RFHTNA COT.T.KOK — COOKF.
