COLLEGE ACTIVITIES QContinued from Page 18j two solosg Lucerne Toler played a piano selection, Miss Georgia Cole and Miss Helen Maddock gave a feature exhibition dance. After the grand march, Miss Maddock and Miss Cole, and Gipsey Wynekoop and Kay Wade were awarded prizes for being the handsomest couples on the floor. An orchestra furnished music to which the guests danced until the cabaret doors were closed. To promote a spirit of friendliness throughout the group, the class had a week of fun and mystery known as Heart and Arrow Week. At a business meeting during the first week of February, each girl drew a heart which bore the name of some fellow student to whom the drawer must give gifts or write notes. Everyone joined in with great enthusiasm to make the week a success. On the following Friday, February twelfth, a party was held at Miss Gaiford's home where the mysteries of Hearts and Arrows were solved and each one received a final gift. In keeping with the spirit of Valentine Day, the game of hearts was played and refreshments of heart-shaped cookies and candies were served. Thursday afternoon, April fourteenth, marked the date of the Annual Mothers' Tea. A musical program was witnessed by the generous attendance of mothers, faculty mem- bers, and college girls. Dainty refreshments were served and an enjoyable afternoon was spent in getting acquainted with the mothers. Instead of sponsoring the annual Garden Party, the College Class devoted all its energy to the success of the Prom, which became a responsibility of the school rather than merely of the Senior Class. Several of the College girls have won general acclaim for their participation in school activities where they have been outstnading. Lucerne Toler and Elnora Loomis had the leads in The Maker of Dreams. Elnora has taken an active part in dramatics as have Aletha and Ruth Eggert, and Cecile Kohner. Cecile won the finals in the tennis tourna- ment. Lillian Bachofen and Donna Dickey were on the College-Junior basketball team. Lillian was also the winner of the intermediate tennis tournament, and played on the hockey team. Jeanette Friesem and Lillian Bachofen were among the best riders, and Doris Frost played tennis, golf, and basketball. Jane Gilbert was the golf instructor this year. All in all, the College girls were actively interested in sports. They were also well represented in the various service and social clubs, student council, and in many other ways showed their school interest. Jane Gilbert was elected president of the boarding department and Elnora Loomis was vice-president. Elnora was also vice-president of the Aberdeen Society. Jane Gilbert and Lillian Bachofen were selected to be student directors of one-act plays in the boarding department. Jeanette Friesem, Marion Heck and Lillian Bachofen were in the principal play of the Dramatic Club of the boarding department, The Valiant. The month of june terminates the season of busy school activities in which the College Class has taken an active part in an endeavor to make the year a success in sports, scholastic standings, and social functions.

C ollege Reporter The Sky Rocket Staff of this year attempted a new project which they feel has been quite worthwhile. They have had their issues mimeographed fat schoolj instead of printed as in former years. As a result, the news of clubs, sports, and other activities has been presented to the school at more frequent intervals. There has also been an increased opportunity for art work in original designs for covers and headings and illustrations. The copies have been more colorful and more varied in interest. The literary section has included samples of work from all classes, and special features, such as a boarder's diary, college corner, travel notes by faculty members, which have added interest to this newspaper-magazine. The literary sponsor is Mrs. Mary Fellandg the art sponsor, Miss Mary Moultong and the staff stenographer and compiler, Miss Jane McMahon. Twenty-Two
