Broadening horizons, the joy of fellowship along the way, the growing conviction of personal obligation, and the discovery and development of those eternal values which give meaning and purpose to life have all been a part of your experiences. In the years ahead, you will continue to reflect with credit and honor the standards and the ideals of your Alma Mater. Wherever you are, there Shorter College will be. PAUL M. COUSINS Congmuli act of jo - 12 TO THE CLASS OF 1944: The world as you go to meet it, with war and, later, serious and difficult post-war problems, is a tremendous challenge to such a group as the Class of 1944. But, with the training, the ideals, the attitude and ex- perience that you have acquired at Shorter, we are confident that you can meet every demand and make a worthwhile contribu- tion to the World of Tomorrow. With appreciation for what you have meant to Shorter and sincere friendship for each of you, LOUISE BENNETT, Dean of Student Affairs Congratulations, Seniors! On your gradu- ation from Shorter you are entering upon a new relation with your Alma Mater, that of Alumnae. In you lies her future. In a very real sense you are Shorter College. May each of you discover a richness of life be- yond your expectations. EVERETTE E. PORTER, Academic Dean 13 F A (! I L T V PAUL M. COUSINS, A.M., LL.D., President.

All Shorter students are members of the Christian Association, which is under the direction of a cabinet of student officers. The presidents of the Student Government, Sports Association, and campus denominational groups are ex-officio members of the cabinet. There are three worship services sponsored by the S. C. A.: Morning Watch, a daily service; Tuesday Evening, usually a devotional, but often an instructive program; and Vespers, the Sunday afternoon service. Each fall the Hallowe ' en Carnival is held; the proceeds are used for baskets for the needy of Rome. These baskets are given at Thanksgiving, Christmas, and other opportune times. The S. C.

Junior editing? Well, a bit of collaboration, a bit of photo-scheduling, a bit of idea-giving, a bit of secret-keeping, and a great deal of work that ' s junior editing. And Judy did it. IDA RUTH WELLS as Art Editor dipped her pen in a well of talent and created the figgers for the club pages. Ida Ruth is a born artist, and her talent keeps pace with the times. Please note that our tough thugs have become war workers while our devilish H. O. T. ' s have become pin-up girls. JENNY BELLE LOVELL, Assistant Art Editor, joined with Ida Ruth to form our arty circle. She racked her brain and pleased our fancies with her map paint- ing and class page sketches. In addition, J. B. war-economized by using com- mon wrapping paper instead of expensive drawing paper . . . (It ' s not the money but the principle . . . It ' s not the principle but the money.

NELLE WYATT worked as My-Girl Friday for Business Managers Jane and Marion, and saw us through a most successful advertising spree. Conscientious and dependable (and putting her family ' s beautiful A-coupons, tires, and car at our disposal), Nelle Allison set the ARGO sailing.

An ARGO staff member with three years ' experience, she advised the new members on countless details which are so important in the publishing of an annual.

The Shorter students are Jean Harron of Thomaston ; Jean Brig- ham of Dublin: Kity Byrne of Blacksburg, Virginia; Nancy Floyd of Leesburg, Florida ; Dorothy Ann Fuller of Cartersville ; Tillie Hood of Commerce; Barbara Monroe of Waycross; Marjorie Sheffield of Savannah ; and Josephine Willis of Clayton, Alabama. Jean Harron, Barbara Monroe, and Josephine Willis were also listed in the 1942- 43 publication. WHO ' S WHO AMONG STU- DENTS is published through the cooperation of over 600 American universities and colleges. It is the only means of national recognition for students which is devoid of politics, fees, and dues. Students irom accredited institutions are se- lected each year by an unpreju- diced committee for their biogra- phies to appear in the publication. The purpose of WHO ' S WHO is to serve as an incentive for students to get the most out of their college careers ; as a means of compensa- tion to students for what they have already done ; as a recommendation to the business world ; and as a standard of measurement for stu- dents. K Shorter Players Present ' The Women ' Clare Booth ' s satirical comedy, The Women, was presented by the Shorter Players, Saturday night, March 18th, under the direction of Miss Lotis Freeman. Mary, Mrs. Stephen Haines, was portrayed by Xitty Byrne. Jeanne Henson played the part of Edith ; Nancy Floyd was Sylvia. Young Mrs. John Day was played by Kather- ine Andrews, and Nancy Blake by Nancy Rawles. Virginia Ballard was Little Mary, young daughter of Mrs. Haines. Jane, the maid, was played by Elizabeth ' New. Mrs. Morehead, Mary ' s mother, was Jane Langford. Crystal Allen, the disturbing element, was portrayed by Jean Brigham. Countess de Lage and Miriam Aarons were played by Connie McAdams and Evelyn Blackwell. The supporting roles were playec by Gloria Whatley, Elizabeth Thomas, Jennie Belle Lovell, Marie Wilson, Betty Me II wain, Henrietta Gunter, Mary Carolyn Walden, Bobbie Deaton, Iris Owens, Mabe Rhinehart, Charlotte Monk, Connie Lott, Jean Gunnels, and Betty Laine Jackson. Ludwig Speaks On Peace Plan The peace can be lost again by misunderstanding and misinterpret- ng the German character, and ' your sons ' sons will have to fight a third war if this happens, de- clared Emil Ludwig, internationally cnown author and lecturer, in an address Thursday evening, February 3, in Brookes Chapel. Appearing under the auspices of the Shorter Student Lecture Asso- ciation, Dr. Ludwig centered his discussion on the kind of peace which should be made when Ger- many is defeated. In analyzing the German charac- ter, he explained that the two pri- mary motivating forces are fear and obedience. Basing his plan for peace on this analyzation, he advo- cated an army of occupation for Germany, with German citizens serving only in an advisory capaci- ty in governing the people. There must be a new ideal of education, Dr. Ludwig said, free of all mili- tarism. Commencement Plans Announced The well-known author and lec- turer, John Temple Graves, of Bir- mingham, Alabama, will be the speaker for the seventy-first Shorter Commencement Monday morning, May 29, in Brookes Chapel. Mr. Graves is on the editorial staff of the Birmingham News and writes a syndicated column, This After- noon, which appears in the Rome News Tribune. He is the author of the book, The Fighting South.

Byrne To Serve As Vice-President Publications Return To Hill Lovell and Riddle Elected Editors The Periscope, the college news- paper, and the Chimes, the quarter ,y magazine, go to press in May for the first time this year. These publications were discontinued in May, 1942, in cooperation with the paper conservation program. The paper supply has increased suffi- ciently now for the Periscope and Chimes to enter Shorter life with patriotic fervor. In a student body election of March 24, Jennie Belle Lovell was elected to head the Periscope staff for the year 1944-45, and Meddle Riddle was selected to edit the Chimes for the coming year.

Ideal Shorter Man Marries Shorter Girl The most outstanding Shorter ro- mance of the year was climaxed with the marriage of Barbara Fay Bedingfield and Capt. Bob Shuler of the Army Air Corps, Shorter ' s Ideal Man. This romance came to our attention when three seniors de- clared an Ideal Man Contest in which Shorter girls were to enter pictures of the men in their lives. The proceeds from this contest were given to buy war bonds for Greater Shorter. Three faculty members judged the pictures of the young men and selected Capt. Shuler, en- tered by Barbara Fay, as Shorter ' s Ideal Man. The sponsors of the contest in- vestigated and discovered that Capt. Shuler was a war ace in the South Pacific Theater who was returnin; to the States in December. He ha The Shorter student body elected Nancy Floyd of Leesburg, Florida, president of the Student Govern- ment Association in the ' 44 elec- tion, March 14. She succeeds Jean Barron of Thomaston, Georgia, and will serve as president of the As- sociation for the school year ' 44- ' 45. A junior council member this year, Nancy was treasurer of the group. She was president of the Class of ' 45 for three years and was selected as one of the nine girls from Shorter to be presented in the ' 43- ' 44 issue of WHO ' S WHO AMONG STUDENTS IN A M E R I CAN UNIVERSITIES AND COLLEGES. Kitty Byrne of Blacksburg, Vir- ginia, also a WHO ' S WHO rep- resentative, was elected vice-presi- dent of the Association. Kitty has been a class officer each of her three years at Shorter and, during her sophomore year, was president of the Sabots. The in -com ing senior council members elected on March 14 are Martha Nell Burckhalter, Peggy Fellers, and Virginia Green. The in-coming junior members are Kath- erine Andrews, Florence Bell, Emily Childs, Henriette Gunter, and Con- nie Lott. Mary Auwers, Marjorie Joyner, Nancy Rawls, and Martha Roberts are the in-coming sopho- more represeentatives, and Virginia Lytle and Sara Bob Strain are the Town Girl representatives. This new Student Council with Nancy Floyd, president, Kitty Byrne, vice-president ; Florence Bell, secretary, and Emily Childs, treasurer, actively began administer- ing student government after the inaugural service in Brookes Chapel, April 11. Rudolph Ganz Visits Shorter The eminent Swiss-American mu- sician, Rudolph Ganz, was the guest of Shorter College for two days, November 16 and 17. During this time he spoke on the regular Col- lege Chanel program, lectured to several of the music classes, and held informal discussions with the students and faculty. Mr. Ganz was presented in a pi- ano recital on Tuesday night, No- vember 16, in Brookes Chapel. The Rome Music Lovers ' Club, co-op- erating with Shorter College in bringing Mr. Ganz to Rome, spon- sored this formal recital. been awarded the Distinguished Flying Cross and the air medal with seven oak leaf clusters. When Capt. Shuler returned, there was a wedding, and Barbara Fay is now Mrs. L. B.
