qaculty WE HAVE good reason to love and respect our dean, for her graciousness and helpfulness pene- trates to every organization on the campus. Her influence is felt in all our activities, and her suggestions and encouragement are always in demand. If any one person is the incarnation of activ- ities at G. S. W. C. it is Miss Ivey. Without her unfailing originality and patience, and her. talent for making an art of whatever she does, we fear that our beautiful festivals and enthu- siastic athletic associations would lose an essen- tial part of their spirit. Nor is Miss McRee to be slighted as a mem- ber of the Physical Education department, be- cause her gift of friendliness and her ability to organize and handle large groups of recalcitrant freshmen have been invaluable in putting over many a program. Mr. Stokes in his hours of recreation is quite happy with a golf club in his hands and a pipe in his mouth. He takes time out from his scholarly pursuits to go on Natural History Club hikes and attend the social dances. The Chemistry department doesn't claim all of Dr. Phelan's time, for the Kappas need him for timekeeper at games, and his versatility even includes being a talented pianist. Miss Sawyer's personality would entitle her to a place of honor on the campus, even if she were not interested in our activities. Quite an actress in her own right, she has chosen to teach others the art, rather than practice it herself. The Pine Cone staff could hardly get along without Miss Gilmer's assistance, she's the guid- ing spirit of the Literary Societies, too, and the staunch encourager of all young poets and prose writers. When Dr. Gulliver misses a social dance, one knows he is out of town. His infectious laugh enlivens any gathering, however, he can be just as interesting in his more serious moments, for his talks in Vespers and Sunday School classes are always enjoyed. l i I K WN i' '-.'- a I ' '. f-I . . ., 0- - - X lf 1 'WJA' Y f - .ah ..-,.-ir f A , o

Cgacultjy Miss Price and the I. R. C. are practically synonymous, she also acts as campaign manager, information bureau, and chaperon for the His- tory Department trips. Ohl something else- she owns the Kappa mascot, David Gammid. Dr. Durrenberger divides his loyalty between the Y. W. C. A. and the Kappa Athletic Asso- ciation. He is a successful Sunday School teacher, and also scorer for games, but that isn't all-he even wrote a book-a scholarly treatise on Turnpikes .and we're quite proud of him for it. One thinks of famous paintings and flowers along with Miss Carpenter. The Fine Arts Club and the Pine Cone staff rely on her advice in all matters artistic. Miss Bush is gaining quite a reputation on the campus as Miss Bobby jones. Each after- noon she takes a holiday from Livy and Virgil long enough to try to play the college golf course ina few less strokes than the afternoon before. Miss Treanor is typically a Georgia girl in that she was born on, and named for, Sapelo Island, and received her higher education at Athens, however, because of her study in France, she can parlez-vousl' with a truly Pa- risian accent. Miss Warren's piano recitals are works of art. Her presence is felt not only through her own playing, however, for she is always relied on to furnish music from her department for the campus teas. Chapel wouldn't be chapel if Miss Temple were not there to direct the songs. She's Glee Club director, too, and that is no small job to be filled as well as she fills it. As mother of two of Valdosta's most talented young violinists, Margaret and Billy, Mrs. Pardee would deserve honorable mention even without her pleasant personality and charming recitals. 0- ' fa f f I 3 NCL : .U I .pb-as: K ' j -- 1 1 .cw . at in ff 4' ,--S , as -it I 'fi ' ' R F 5 w N i .L 5 I
