JIM WEST GYMNASIUM At night the glow of the lights streaming through the spacious windows combined with the swells of yells resounding from within give life to the spirit and enthusiasm of the game of basketball. Not only basketball, but scores of games, boxing, volleyball, and all sorts of gymnastic feats keep the health and spirit of education on an even keel. There are no dull Jacks here. THE SCIENCE BUILDING Condemned! That is the fate of this fading building. To some eyes this will be a sad occasion, but oh, to the many never will there be a more glorifying sight. It is true that this building has served many— and well, but as time passes the old must give way to the new. Short lived? Yes. But who will ever forget those tedious hours spent over a Bunsen burner, running unknown after unknown through its paces to please those faces of Dr. Godbey and Dr. Wannfried while others still labored through their physics problems. And, if English never was a science, it is now, as Mrs. Geppert can well assure. But still- Condemned! 11

Mrs. Score, above, expertly breaks ground at Lois Perkins Chapel cere- monies. Below, the framework for the chapel etches a geometrical pattern against the sky. LOIS PERKINS CHAPEL The most long-awaited event in recent Southwestern history — the building of our Chapel. The groundbreaking ceremonies were held on the spot where the altar is to stand, during one of the first regular chapel services at the first of the year. First to break the ground was Mrs. Score, wife of the late Dr. J. N. R. Score, former president of Southwestern; school officials then wielded the spade, then presidents of all the campus organizations. Each day students have watched it grow and mature into a graceful, stately building, one which may be seen and admired upon entering Georgetown from the hills, and one which will become an integral part of our school and Christian life. It is not yet completed, but will be when the seniors of 1951 are ready to walk down its aisles. Left: Quite a lofty position! atop the tower of Lois Perkins Chapel. Right: The Chapel under construction makes an interesting picture, and gives a promise of what is to be. 10
