l' l l - 1 1 ft 1,- 1 silt 1 t.a:s.,2rt'9' ' PHUPHEIIY Because of their unusual caliber while in college the activities of the graduating class of '44 following their tearful exit from their Alma Mater will not shock their faculty or student friends. A hasty glance into the future shows: Virginia Anderson as a noted astronomer. Her constant companion and helper is her handsome husband whom she lovingly calls The Man in the Moon. Earline Armantrout as a great producer-she raises rabbits. Recently she donated' to the National Zoo a pure purple animal which is said to be the only kind of that nature in existence. Bobbie Bishop as the inventor of an automobile that drives itself. The only weakness of the invention is that it frequently goes home in the afternoon before she is off work, making it necessary for her to catch a bus. Evelyn Cutts as a big-time ship builder. She would have been ranked with Kiser if her last ship had not collapsed when socked with the bottle of champagne. Agnes Carder with black hair. She grew weary of the endless whistles from the male half of the population whenever she walked down the street. Evelyn Frankum as the wife of a Latin-American consul. e Mary Beth Goldin as the director of the New York Philharmonic Orchestra. Since she is the first woman to hold this honor Bessie Tift may be justly proud. ff l38l Jackie Hester as assistant director of the Library of Congress. Carolyn Hood in a checked apron cooking tasty meals for' her husband and five small hurricanes sometimes called children. Frances Horne as a Forest Ranger in the VVest. From her look-out tower she keeps accurate accounts of the men in her district. Clara Bell Jenkins as a noted author. Her latest contribution to the literary world is a scientific treatise entitled The Propfr Method of Feeding Goldfsh. Elsie Kelley teaching Speech on an Indian reser- vation. 1 Eda Klarer as the official newspaper woman sent by Uncle Sam to japan. Her weekly column, which ap- pears in all reputable newspapers, ranks second in popularity only to VVinchell. Lucy Little as the star of the Hollywood Icescapades. Her most cherished possession is a blue ribbon she won in a national contest of jitterbugs on ice. Linda Lord as a Red Cross worker in Germany. J Edith McGinty as a member of the House of Rep- resentatives. It is said that she may run against Roosevelt in 1962. Miriam Owen as Master of Ceremonies on the Doctor I. Q. program. Her only problem is that she now measures six feet from eating the vitamin pills she advertises. Carolyn Poole running an Agricultural Experimental Station. Her latest achievement is the production of corn without ears. Fra-nces Rackley as an honored member of the faculty at Bessie Tift. Her most used admonition to her students is Behave as young ladies.

Her lectures include cne entitled How to Discover a Planet Every Year. Margaret VVhite as a flea trainer for Ringling Brothers Circus. Mary jane VVilliams as the wife of the vice-president of Plunkett's Pink Pills for Pale People Company. Claire VVilliamson as the wife of a seventy-five- year-old millionaire. It is reported she still says con- sistently, Oh give me courage. Dot Winn as jockey for the world-famous race horse, Ozymandius. Lawton Dewes as the favorite crooner of the feminine world. A new bill just passed in Congress forbids women with weak hearts to listen to him over the radio because of the devastating ieffect he has upon them. MARY VVILMA Evans

tg'-X ..,,. 5 ' ii' 5 THE FL B H I I EEHEMUNY ir cLAss Poem i These colors, dear to us because the things Great symbol, lead us on and up to hold They represent we hold as good and true, The light of liberty for all mankind, We raise with fondest hopes and proudest dreams, Endeared with glories of a thrilling past And set their standards high against the blue. Wherein the brilliant light of courage shines. Impart to our young lives the vision splendid, And to our eager hearts and willing hands, Desire to carry ever on and upward This banner and the cause for which it stands. FRANCES RACKLEY I37l
