If is only fitting, therefore, that such a means should be used by Milestones to portray the living picture of the Ward-Belmont year. The yearbook has taken from this present all the color, pageantry, and genuine drama which distinguish the school and has preserved them for the future tvith the hope that those zvho follow will see through Milestones ' eyes the truly outstanding plot, action, and characters of Ward-Belmont. 1940. There is one star, soon to vanish from the Ward-Belmont firmament, who has shone for twenty-six years with greater brilliance than any satellite of like degree. Queen of the year-long drama of school life, she has ever been regally endowed with a grace, charm, and kindli- ness which make it a privilege for the Senior elass of 1040 to dedicate its yearbook to Miss Emma I. Sisson. ACKLEN HALL THE CENTER FOUNTAIN BLANTON ACADEMIC BUILDING THE SINGING TOWER EUSTICE A. HAIL HALL PILLARS OF NORTH FRONT A HOUSE IN CLUB VILLAGE iiMxicm DR. JOSEPH E. BURK P r c s i d e 11 1 A cheerful smile and a heart full of understanding and kindly wisdom all combine to make up a Ward-Belmont president who is more than worthy of his office. Doctor Burk has done in this, his first year as president, all that is possible to make each girl completely happy in her foster home. The ap- plause that greets his entrance into the auditorium speaks louder than any words in descrihing his popularity. MISS EMMA I. SISSON D c a n o f R c s i d c 11 c e To paraphrase the quotation, Being Dean of Residence is no bed of roses, yet Miss Sisson has converted that office into one of loyal and trustworthy adviser to the girls of Ward-Belmont. Her gracious charm, her poise, and her fairness in every phase of her work make her a valuable asset to all the beautv and tradition of the school. Page Seventeen DR. ROBERT C. PROVINE D c a n o f ' a cult v Charm may be masculine as well as feminine as is so well proved by Ward- Belmont ' s new Dean Provine. Courtesy of manner and a genial southern drawl have combined to skyrocket his popularity with students and teachers alike. MISS ANNIE C. ALLISON P r i n c i p a I o f H i g h S c h o o I Prudence, poise, and personality seem specially coined to fit the capable person of Miss Annie, principal of the high school at Ward-Belmont. Tireless in her energy, devoted in her enthusiasm, she is a perennial favorite with her girls.

At table— Davis Every democracy lias, in addition to an executive body, an organized group of representatives of the great masses of people who otherwise would have no voice in their government. Ward-Belmont College has such a plan in effect under the title of the Student Council. Three such organizations are maintained for the benefit of college boarders, day students, and the high school boarding stu- dents. Of the three organizations, the College Boarding Student Betty Ie.nkixs President of College Boarding Student Council President First Vice-President— Second Vice-President - Senior Hall Hail Hall Fidelity Hall - Founders Hall- Chapel Senior Hall— Hail Hall Fidelity Hall - Founders Hall. Council is perhaps the most powerful, no doubt rightly so, for it represents the majority of the students. Its officers, elected by the student body and approved by the administra- tion for a term of one year, must be girls of outstanding ability. Proctors of the various halls and of the chapel meet with these members to hear complaints and misde- meanors of all varieties. The council follows a set form and fills the need at Ward-Belmont for some expression of self-government. OFFICERS -Betty Jenkins .

Thus, it is the purpose of the group to instill in day students as just a system of discipline as that which exists for the boarding students. Although the organization has no written constitution, tradition demands that its president and first vice-president be college Seniors and that its second vice-president be a Senior-Middle. ( (therwise, there are no strict regulations of ceremony. All officers are elected for one vear. meet every Tuesday after lunch to read proctor reports and any cases of dav student dilemmas. Secretary Nancy Perry ' s minutes are sent weekly to the advisory board for discussion. The day student council has lung served a worthy purpose at Ward-Belmont, and is one of the most indispensable groups in the entire school.

Last year the high school at Ward-Belmont achieved the rosy splendor of an individual student council instead of inclu- sion with the college boarding council. Now, in its second year of existence, the younger organization has proved itself a most happy thought and an acknowledged success in the handling of high school discipline. Its board is com- posed of outstanding girls elected for one semester only to fulfill their important jobs to the best of their ability. Undoubtedly it is to them that the success of the organi- zation is in a large measure due. Student government at Ward-Belmont is composed of three divisions. That is, the student-elected governing bod y, an advisory body of faculty, and the administration. In the high school unit the advisory board is made up of Miss Nelle Major, a member of the high school faculty; Miss Catherine E. Morrison, sponsor of the high school hall ; and Miss Emma I. Sisson. dean of residence. OFFICERS President.

So it is through the close-knit organization of this group that Christian educa- tion becomes a part of the environment of every girl in the school. Working in accord with like groups at Vanderbilt University. Peabody College, and Scarritt. the Y has a rapidly spreading influence throughout Nashville and its vicinity. This year Y. W. C. A. affairs include the Tennes- see Children ' s Home within the scope of their activities. In addition to sponsoring and arranging Ward-Belmont Sunday evening Vesper services, the group also provides entertainment for the school in the form of the Y dance. the Valentine party, and memorable Peanut Week. Petite president, Elizabeth Hickerson. and her committee chair- men have combined efforts to make Y work this year equal, as well as surpass, last year ' s excellent system of organized worship.

Memory is one of the greatest gifts given to mankind; a yearbook is one of the greatest gifts any school may bestow upon its students to preserve their memory of that portion of their lives. The work of the staff of such a book is not only to set down the history of the year but to make that history as modern and alive as it is possible for it to become. To this end, has industrious Elaine Kent bent all her efforts so that the student body as well as her own staff might realize and appreciate that fact. This year the staff members chose the theme of the modern motion picture theatre as a typical means of presenting the show of the year. Strange terms like double-page spreads. layouts, copy space. and type face have come to hold a real meaning for the industrious staff mem- bers and their editor. It is a difficult thing to please everyone all of the time. Lincoln originated that thought: Editor Kent fervently echoed it. Not all of the annual may please anv one. vet parts of it will appeal to everyone. Knowing this is true, the Milestones staff of 1939-40 will rest assured that thev have carried out their purpose.

Grouping the individual writing of many talented students into a repre- sentative magazine, the editors resolved several years ago to dub this work Chimes, because no other term so well expressed the announcement of their talent quite so aptly as this. Today Suzanne McDonald and an eager squad of assist- ants thrice yearly sort the good from the bad and bestow a finished magazine upon the students of Ward-Belmont in December, March, and May. Both high school and college students have found a place for their work in Chimes, and with the publication of the May issue Miss Myhr, the enthusiastic sponsor, and the members of the staff may well feel that the vear 1939- 40 has been a most worth-while one in the development of the life of this, our literary magazine.

Headed by pint-sized, energetic Chris Schrader and June Haldt. the organization this year has proved itself one of the most active. The entire association is made up of two groups — active and participating members. Active members are those who have made varsities or required points by club team play; participating members belong for the pure joy of it. The first six members of the board are elected by the active members, the remainder by the board and the gym office. This group meets once a month and hashes out new schemes for more varied activity for book-weary members. En- tertainment sponsored by the organization each year in- cludes the campus tours in affiliation with the V. Y. C. A. : a large party, this Year a football dance November 18; an interhall party January 27; a banquet for all members in May ; three chapel programs to award recognition for fall, winter, and spring sports.

Once upon a time a mathematics teacher in a southern girls ' school grouped together scien- tifically-minded students, taught them how to play bridge, chess, checkers, toss dice, pitch pennies, and conduct school surveys, and so Math Club was born. The mathematics teacher was fun-loving Miss Frances Falvey. and the math students rose out of a mass of formulas, equa- tions, and trigonometry — and loved it.

Here, there has long been established an organization for those who desire, above all else, to express themselves for the benefit of others. Penstaff is a high school organization composed of twenty-two girls who wish to spon- sor a greater interest in creative writing. Mem- bership is attained by submitting two manuscripts, one of which must be prose, to be read and voted upon before club members.

The Beta Club, an exclusive high school group, was installed in the high school to develop character as well as an appreciation of knowledge and those who possess it. The oft-occupied green room finds itself literally teeming with outstanding girls on the third Wednesday of every month, as Beta Club members meet in informal discussion of their own organization.

HOME EC CLUB Mrs. Fidlar rfij nbers of the Ho Nineteen hundred forty marked the beginning of another year of world unrest, but here it was the occasion for a much more pleasant venture. The Ward-Belmont home economics department organized, for the first time, a de- partmental club to further interest in that valuable science and its related subjects.

McDonough q u A 3-0-T HOCKEY Hockey calls for speed and action Main jinx of the hockey season were the tie games which stymied a surprising number of clubs. The ill-fated Agora squad began the contest with a tie with the T. C. ' s, and from then on tied every game. The T. C. ' s. recipients of a glanc- ing blow from the hand of Chance, also tied one other game. True matinee melodrama was displayed in the Tri K-X. L. conflict. The squads had resolved themselves to a zero tie and settled down to a trite exhibition of stick work. Suddenly heroine Mariana Evans entered the picture, slid the ball cleverly between the goal posts to win a victory for the jubilant Tri K ' s in the last three minutes of play. A similar Thursday thriller was played between two da} ' stu- dent clubs, the Eccowasins and Angkors. Until the final five minutes of the game, the score was tied ; but. when the con- fusil n had finally roused the anguished Angkors, they found the score stood at 2-0 for their opponents, who incidentally won the entire tournament. Most unique feature of a unique tourna- ment was the manner in which the Ec- cowasin Club won the trophy. Ordinari- ly, each club is permitted to participate in three games, winning teams meet in the semifinals, and the final game is a battle to the last stick between the two flash teams of the school. Nineteen hundred thirty-nine, however, found the Ecco- wasins the only team with three wins to Page Forty-Four its credit when the preliminary series was over. Five teams were tied for second place, and four, the Del Vers, Osirons, Tri K ' s, and Aristons. had two wins each. The remaining club. T. C. possessed one win and two ties. But the scores, figured on a basis of five points per win, two and one-half for ties, proved conclusively that the Eccowasin team had no imme- diate rival for the play-oft ' game. Although interclass hockey poured the limelight on a galaxy of featured players, club hockey resounded with the names of early headliners. Anita Williamson, Ariston. noted for leadership in any sport, stole many a scene from rival exhibition- ists. Little Penny Shaw, proving- the determination of the redheads, was Penta Tau ' s chief celebrity, and Peg Sedwitz, on hand as usual, held a vicious hockey stick in one hand and a fist full of trick plays in the other. The Agora defense line, consisting of three veterans. Law- rence. Kellev. and Champion, was un- doubtedly the most outstanding section of its squad. At least three bells should be awarded T. C.

Coached by Miss Mary Elizabeth Delaney. the dance majors have developed a reputation favorably reviewed by school and city papers alike. Although such minor productions as school holidays, Kiwanis Club meetings, and teachers ' convention luncheons make Delaney dancers much in demand, their talents are directed toward three major extravaganzas each year. First of these was the fall dance recital held earlv in December and previewed by a capacity crowd of both students and visitors. The drama of the dance was divided into eleven scenes and two acts, all of which were publicity-perfect in one respect or another. The virtues of versatility were ably shown by the varied talents of Mary Aileen Cochran, Betsy Ann Humphries. Irma Katherine Biel, LaVonne Phillips, Louise Jahncke and many others. The brilliant hues of scarlet skating costumes melted into the pastel pinks of ballet to produce a kaleidoscope of colors which would have done credit to any Hollywood super- production. Second box-office success of an ultra-fortunate season was the spring recital held March 15, which brought down an enthusiastic house with its abundance of beauty, costuming, and truly remarkable grace and rhythm. Hits of the evening were the tap routine by bench warmers Barbara Wallace. Mary Aileen Cochran, and Betsy Ann Humphries. Louise Jahncke ' s unusual agility in acrobatic work, and the tap solo by Betsv Ann Humphries. In addition, the ballets were a joy to behold and critics were unanimous in praise of plot, action, and stars. Third drawing card of the year was May Haw an unqualified headliner. Page Forty-Si TENNIS With Ward-Belmont, as with the movie colony, tennis is a favorite sport. Observers follow the bouncing- ball with almost as great an enthusiasm as the players themselves, and the finals are played oft with quantities of backstage discussion as to superiority of form and endurance. The gym casting board was filled early in the season with the names of many players, amateur and rising stars. Three first-round rivalries are worthy of critics ' attention. Frankie Taylor and Harriett Roberts engaged in a swift-moving thriller that eventually conceded victory to Frankie ; Mariana Evans, blonde high school bombshell, triumphed over Joanne Hampton ; Marv Wilson and Peg Sedwitz of the 1938 varsity met in a fate- ful encounter which advanced veteran Peg to round two. A production of the year in the tennis court circles was the final match between Mary Furrh, high school heroine, and Virginia Love Graves. Tense excitement of the actual feature was no letdown from the publicity build-up it had received. The calm, steady ability of Mary Furrh proved itself an advantage to the brilliantly erratic performance of her opponent. The final curtain was rung down on a score of 6-3. 3-6. 6-4, showing the convincing second-act animation of Miss Graves. Much press notice was given Ward-Belmont ' s latest leading ladv of tennis, vet she has already found that to rest on past laurels is fatal. The new season is developing many a contender for the tennis crown, and the 1940 scenario may call for an even larger group of up-and-coming star material.

RIDING ( )ut iii the riding ' ring at Ward-Belmont each year there may be discovered clouds of dust through which the dim forms of eager equestrians ride madly. Directing this action-packed drama is no burly, knicker-clad technician, but a slim, brown- eyed Ward-Belmont alumna. Miss Ca- milla Nance. Such stand-by outstanders as Faf Far- well. Lily and Mary Byrd, Marilyn Reeves. Sarah Wilhite. Virginia Coblentz, Kate Haltom, June Haldt. Posy Oswald, and Suzanne McDonald gave 1940 per- formances worthy of at least ten blue ribbons. But those who were new had opportunity to rise and shine in both the fall and spring horse shows. Calm Nancy Deen possesses true English horse sense, well proven by her fall show skill ; Marjorie Barnes, Nancy Fischer. Carol Bryant, and Mary Jane Becker are also newcomers to the ring, but they have in common a knack for blending their talent into perfect riding symmetry. Page Forty-Eight T The fall horse show, sponsored as usual by Turf and Tanbark Club, was as usual a success. Airs. Oscar Noel, Nashville horsewoman, judged the events, assisted by June Haldt and Sarah Wilhite ; Presi- dent Burk presented the awards to the triumphant winners. Division winners were Peg Plummet . Artabelle Grover. Nancy Deen, Mary Elizabeth Masengill, Betty Bascombe ; and Nancy Deen and Nancy Fischer in the pair class. The Penta Tau Club proved itself athletic as well as sociable by its acceptance of the silver cup for the most points. With the appearance of the first crocus, Miss Nance and her prodigies trotted out around the familiar cinder path to spe- cialize in three- and rive-gaited work and to learn the elements of successful jumping. The spring horse show, judged by Miss Virginia Kiesel, proved the superiority of the X. L. ' s by the riding ability of Faf Farwell, Suzie McDonald. Mary Jane Becker, and the Byrd twins. June Haldt. successful throughout four years of riding, was awarded the best rider ribbon to climax an action-packed spring drama. US all n « da s Caught between cante A n ch „ol Basketball V rsUy— ' V0S ,G ' FW5S ' Taylor High S Basketball this year at Ward-Belmont produced a bumpy crop of bruised shins, but it also proved that the young ladies of one of the South ' s best girls ' schools have skill and endurance that should be difficult to equal. The news of this year ' s winners is stale by now, but the tenacity of purpose that they exhibited is not. The Agoras, emerging from a back- ground of mediocre athletic ability, this year forged their way to the top in a series of hard-fought battles with some of the best-equipped opponents produced for several years. Three tournament rounds were held as usual with all clubs participating. Five teams emerged from this field with clear records: the X. L. ' s. Tri K ' s, Angkors, Aristons, and Agoras. These clubs represented the choicest apples in the 1940 barrel, possessing accuracy and timing, both valuable assets in any basketball tournament. The quarter-finals saw the defeat of the Tri K ' s by the surprisingly powerful X. L. ' s, and the day student Aristons sailed triumphantly to victory with Angkors aweigh. The semifinals brought the sturdy X. L. sextet to its knees before the Agoras. According to custom, the Agora-Ariston game was a thing of beauty and a joy forever to sports enthusiasts. It possessed superior guards, forwards, and those necessary few with an eye for the basket. itb Virginia Coblentz supplying the humor and Hortense Kelley supplying the baskets, the boarding student club had an unbeatable combination. However, the sparkling, vivid play of Anita Williamson, and her team- mates Adams and Miller accounted for the excellent showing of the day student group. Each club had its major drawing card. The X. L. ' s Mary Bauman exhibited her basketwise eye and her goalward maneuvering; Mariana Evans of the Tri K ' s played the game with undefeatable spirit ; Page Fifty Holcombe of the Angkors and Tillman, a Triad, were perhaps out- standing- for their clubs. As adept on the court as she is on the dance floor was long-limbed Louise Jahncke who was the guiding light of the F. F. team. Pluckiest group of the entire tournament was the small, substituteless Del Vers squad who, although defeated time after time, maintained a spirit that was envied by many another club. Basketball is ordinarily not a feminine accomplishment, but to the modern girl it is a pastime that contains a large percentage of skill, thrills, and an opportunity to develop sportsmanship of- the highest kind.

March 7. was a happy day for the T. C. Club at Ward-Belmont, for it was on this date that they won the bowling cup. outpointing their nearest rival. the Angkors, by 125 points. The contest had begun nine days before on February 27 . with each team bowling three times until the finals of the tournament. The first round of the contest was without any startling developments. The X. L. ' s led the field the first day with 500. Angkors and T. C. ' s running close seconds and thirds. Individual high scores were turned in by Mary Beth Lovell, Mary Byrd, Martha Bryan, and Patty Johnson. Second round of the tournament found the T. C. ' s with the most on the ball, 1,002, to be exact. The Eccowasins followed closely with 937, and the persistent Angkors two points below with 955. During this period, little Mary Dawson turned in a neat 167; Kit Edwards. 144; Frankie Taylor, 136. Reel three brought to excited spectators the final round in an interesting season. Final scores for the competitors were: T. C. ' s. 1.530; Angkors, 1.477; Eccowasins. 1.578. Individual scorers of the afternoon were Mary Dawson again with 177, Mary Frances Charlton with 153, and twinkling W ' inkie Pierce stowing away 151. The ' final round gave the bowling cup conclusively to the terrific T. C. ' s as Pierce. Haltom. Taylor, and Grabiel jauntily finished things up with a score of 2.045.

Proving their dissimilarity in this respect as well, the girls who have taken swimming this vear have spent their time in takes and retakes in order to equal the records of former years. That this practice has not been in vain is shown by the swimming meet held in March and won by the talent of the X. L. Club. Highest individual scorer of the entire meet was Ariston ' s Anita Williamson who piled up a total score of twenty-one points. Pat Warren of the Angkors was second with twenty and one-half points, and Faf Farwell of the victorious X. L. ' s claimed twelve and one-half as her cut. All together there were eleven events with one smashed record in the fifty-foot underwater swim made by Pat Warren and Anita Williamson. Total points of the meet were twenty-nine for the X. L.

No wild western thriller can equal the drama of Aliss Betty Jane Sehmann ' s little biweekly features in a corner of the Ward-Belmont gymnasium. It is here that Sehmann-like skill is sought and accomplished by students only after hours of practice and a grim determination to learn the gentle art of self-defense. No clinging vines, they soon become masters of an art in which the sword is far superior to the pen. The Ward-Belmont high lights in the world of sports are incomplete without mention of golf, America ' s great spring pastime. Ward- Belmont novices content themselves with practice at the school, but advanced low scorers are allowed the privilege of play at Percy Warner Park, where individual par games give evidence of their proficiency. Ann Embleton, Elaine Kent, Mary Byrd, and Janie Johnston are among the school ' s chief putters. So both within the Ward-Belmont studio and on location at Percy Warner Park, important scenes have been made this spring, not for the benefit of a group of potential observers, but for the betterment of performers ' skill. In such a manner is lasting talent brought to the fore and sportdom ' s great created from amateurs possessed of a will to learn. Page Fifty-Four ... behind the ' ri ' ' ' ' The powci bemv SPRING SPORTS Along with checked gingham, sandals, and spring fever come the sports which serve as added attractions to the feature-length productions of fall and winter athletics. This year, since tennis was not offered, students contented themselves with archery, baseball, swimming, and track. Archery brought many aspirants to fame out on location twice each week. Gradually practice brought perfection, and a quantity of potential Robin Hoods and William Tells emerged from the extra ranks. Baseball, incentive for minor damages to incautious amateurs, also called forth the best efforts of sports columnists. Track was a newcomer to the ranks of hits. Stunt girls hurdled, raced, broad-jumped, and pole-vaulted their way to public approval. Gym office talent scouts soon took more than ordinary notice of such spring celebrities as Louise Jahncke, making track history ; Hortense Kelley and Pinky Hickerson, piling up their quota of runs around the baseball diamond : Kate Haltom, rapidly elevating the T. C. batting average ; Gerda Wootten, devoted to her bow of the archery range ; and Mary Bauman, causing more than one sensa- tional upheaval in the swimming pool.

Juke Simo Evolution has proved the fact that man l v nature is a so- ciable creature. Social clubs at Ward-Belmont have given further evidence of that fact by filling a once present gap in the chain of school society. All clubs are on an equal basis, each being known for its friendliness, spirit, or membership. The Agora Club is perhaps better known for the close-knit comradeship of its girls than for any other feature. Hortense Kelley, stately Martha of Washington Day and president of the club, reverses tactics for a hockey game or a battle on the basketball court ; petite Pinky Hick- erson. ribbons flying, has yet to meet her match in basket- ball or Y work; Jane Morley trills a wicked high C; Betty Laird, a second semester newcomer, rapidly made a name for herself and her club along bowling alleys ; Nancy Young has so established herself in the school that next year ' s Y. W. C. A. will be off to a flying start with her as leader; Shirlev Allison, blonde and beautiful, has more than once this year stood Belmont belles on figurative ears with her pianistic perfection. Such is the shining firma- ment of Agora stars ; such is the reason for their success individually and collectively. Thus the Agora (. ' lub stands as tangible proof of society at its best. Teas, dances, parties, and week ends all make for unity of thought, purpose, and ideals. There can be no greater drama than this in which the principal characters learn their parts by two years of the most valuable practice in club life.

Now, the talk may switch to riding theory or to the skating party held as a yearly feature. Memories rise of the club open house, an annual triumph for any social club. Plans are discussed for a theatre party, and later a faculty tea. After-class conversations ordinarily include such campus stars as Mildred Cresswell first place winner in two horse shows; Ursula DeGeorge. one of the most popular of the high school students ; Sue Steenburg and Jane Stockdale. Senior-Middle satellites ; and perhaps Molly Hutchinson, adept at verbal expression. Suddenly the familiar figure of the club president appears in the doorway — Peggy Sedwitz of the bone-crushing handshake and the tennis drive that has placed her on the tennis varsity for two successive seasons.

Instead of creating disaster these wiser modern maids avoid it by a united front of talent and spirit for the betterment of their club and their school. Established winners such as curly- haired Hetty MacMillan, President Grace Baird, Pos) ( Iswald, Jean Bloom, Mary Goldsmith, and Martha Roach have all combined to make up club material, both superior and versatile. Club activities included an orphans ' party, a faculty breakfast, and a skating party, in addition to the usual open houses, week ends, and interclub entertainment. With such an attitude.

Later the word became converted into delve, and the meaning changed into seeking for infor- mation. When the social clubs of Ward- Belmont were organized, it became each club ' s duty to select a suitable name, and thus it was that the name Del Vers was formed. This year the Del Vers were saddened by the loss at Christ- mas of their beloved president. Frances Peters, although Vice-President Betty Johnson helped to make up for this ioss by becoming president herself. The club is fortunate in having popular Miss Mai ' Noy Van Deren as its sponsor and also in the large number of its members who hold office or are outstanding in one group or another. Betty Jenkins, president of the Boarding Student Council; Mary Kirklin, second semester proctcr of Fidelity Hall ; Betty Johnson, first semester chapel proctor; and Mary Womack, Senior- Middle cheerleader, are only a few of the top-ranking- at- tractions. However, the must obvious thing about the group is its fine cooperative spirit in every activity it under- takes. Charm again stands forth in the 1 (, 40 release of the Del Vers cavalcade. Molly Bellamy, Lolly Demmer. Peg Plummer. and Cathe Stevens hold the glamour standard high ; Cay Champney, singer, pianist ; Carol Bryant, horse- woman of championship ability ; Patty Johnson, a real con- tributor to the literary life of the school. Little did those ancient Anglo-Saxons realize the far- reaching effect of their del fan on a southern school in the city of Nashville, Tennessee. Could they wander into the Del ers clubhouse to observe the results of their lan- guage, they would no doubt be highly gratified to find the Del Vers still eagerly delving for the highest in every field.

Ensemble girl of the club is Day Student Council President, Katy Heitzeberg ; Martha Allen has achieved the Day Student Proctorship for the second semester ; Jean Caldwell, another club member having held the position before her ; melodious Marilyn Redinger has earned the regard of the entire student body for her lilting soprano voice ; cheerful Jane Steagall, vice-president of the French club, is always present when the honor roll is read. The list is longer, and the talent increases each year. Recog- nition of this merit gave the Eccowasins full charge of the entertainment at the supremely successful dav student party, advancement to tennis tournament finals, ownership of the hockey cup, and other honors. Thus. Ward-Belmont students have good reason for holding this group in one of the esteemed positions on campus. Should any great film be conceived on Ward-Belmont club life, the Eccowasin Club might easily prove itself an ideal choice for the title role. Heroine Virginia Love Graves should be ably assisted bv Kit Edwards. Orator Eunice Eckhoff. Virginia Collins, and next year ' s president, Betty Curtiss. Success of the production would be due, however, not to these individual performers, no matter how excellent their actions might be, but to the club as a whole, giving of its time and energy, as always, to the perfection of a consistently outstanding program.

F. CLUB ■ Oi- Mary Frances Hill President Miss Bertha Ruef Sponsor Even- successful drama has a plot, every story has its theme. Every social club at Ward-Belmont has its central idea, around which club life is woven. The pivot point of all activity in the F. F. Club has been, this year as always. Friendliness, with a capital F for emphasis. The F. F. house is one of the most comfortably built and conveniently situated of all the clubhouses. Any Ward- Belmont girl considers it a privilege to be invited to enter its welcoming doors. President Mary Frances Mill in no way detracts from this aura of warmth by her beaming face and consistently good humor. Intellect also passes these portals when .Mine Brown and blonde Sarah Thomas saunter in. .Music is prevalent in any corner that Maude Combs, Phyllis Kipp. and Ruth Elise Shanks happen to lie situated. The latter has the distinction of playing the piano for the symphony orchestra and for the string en- semble. Little Eleanor Taylor is a member of Penstatf. and Audrey Jane Hunter this year has held the position of president of the German Club. Athletics, while not played fortissimo in this clubhouse, has nevertheless its place in the schedule of events. Louise Jahncke and Mary Frances Mill achieved the hockey var- sity and Phyllis Kipp shone as well in basketball. Follow- ing swiftly in this firmament are the literary talent of Elva Anne Thompson, the captivating rhythm of Virginia Hyer. and the characteristic friendliness of Lucy Euell. Knowing in their hearts hew successful this year has been, the grad- uating F. F. ' s leave behind them a fervent wish for the enlargement of the old theme in the hope that F. F. friend- liness shall continue undisturbed. Dances, week ends, and parties have taken most F. F. time, but there always re- mains the happiest of endings to any completed tale — the open door and hearts that are large enough to encompass all those who seek their friendship.

Here meet companionship, beaut}-, and talent of every variety when its members collect for their regular Wednesday evening meeting. Social life of the club runs parallel to that of their nine sister organizations, features week ends. an open house, parties, as well as participation in hockey, basketball, and bowling. ( )ne of the most democratic points of Ward-Belmont so- ciety is that each club has its stars, and no club is more outstanding than any other in potential talent. In 1939 and 1940, the Osirons developed their rising discoveries into girls of headline billing in almost every held. Fluffy Martha Ruth Burns and Dottie Fitchhorn in the Capti- vators ; Ruth Whittlesey and Marie Lackey, president and treasurer, respectively, of the high school student council; exuberant Betsy Ann Humphries in dancing ; and Katheryn Satterfield in Chimes and Penstaff activities. Such is the star roster for the club, and as such it more than fulfills the unwritten standards of versatility. Beauty finds joyous outlet in the persons of Marjorie Haley, Mary Rice Seaton, Bobby Mohler, and Beth Hol- combe, high school May Hay maid for the second time this year. Although composed mainly of high school girls, the group makes no distinction in its acceptance of all those girls who desire comradeship and pep in their club. The best of movie studios are filled with a variety of talent ; so also is the Osiron Club. Both organizations realize the value of versatility in every field, whether it be motion picture or school organization.

The Penta Tan Club at Ward-Belmont is noted for its plenteous supply of all that makes for a beautiful as well as charming member of the fair sex. Sweet-faced Sarah Wilhite has a poise and graciousness that so influenced her club sis ' ers that they chose her as president cf the group. Dainty little Tat Allen, vice-presi- dent, aspires to become a physical education teacher. Yet brains as well as beauty find their place on one reel of Penta Tau activity, for Nancy Fischer and Anne Carson have contributed their bit to the honor roll. Stately Nancy Deen has served well in the capacity of Mathematics Club president. Both redhead Penny Shaw and Betty Lowe Dryden have been Senior-Middle hall proctors for one se- mester, thus chalking up a goodly portion of citizenship points for their club. One of the most successful open houses was a feature at- traction at the clubhouse on December 6. The club fol- lowed this ini tial hit with a faculty-president ' s council buffet supper held one Sunday evening in February and an entertainment for its sister club, the F. F.. on March 27. Even virtue is more fair when it appears in a beautiful person. Athletics, however, finds its appointed niche with the win- ning of the fall horse show, Nancy Deen ' s two firsts in the spring horse show, and her club sisters who so dis- tinguished themselves in the same event.

CLUB Acknowledged star of any Twentieth Century production is the T. C. president vivid, versatile Winkie Pierce. How- ever, fellow cluh members have also come in for a goodly portion of publicity breaks at Ward-Belmont (luring the past year. Texas-born Josephine Sparks, president of the Senior-Middle class, can be counted on to liven up any eve- ning in the corner clubhouse. Her classmate. Ann Rolfe. has been a feature attraction in Ward-Belmont activities for several years now and has proved herself worthy of the trust given her as president of the Boarding Council for next year. The first pre-Christmas reel at the school saw Aleene Mueller as proctor of Heron, and Bettv Cald- well in the difficult role of president of the High School Student Council. Second reel activities made way for Mary Turrh as proctor of Heron Hall and revived the recollec- tions of her triumph on the tennis court as she won the W-B cup. In meetings held every Wednesday night at the clubhouse, girls plan the usual social affairs of the year, such as the club week end. the skating party, the open house. This year interest was greatly aroused by the all-club gym dance and the well-planned breakfast for the faculty and Presi- dent ' s Council. Adequate direction is necessary to any successful produc- tion. Such is provided by Sponsor Betty Jane Sehmann, who. for some obscure, long-forgotten reason, answers to the cognomen of Miss Tilly. The T. C. Club is slated for bigger and better roles in the years to come. So far. it has shown remarkable ability to manage such roles.

Each of the four meets every Tuesday morn- ing in the day-student clubhouse for business meetings in addition to cleverly arranged programs. Every club presi- dent is chosen for her ability, her popularity, and her loyalty both to her school and her club. To all these qualities the Triad Club presidents. Edna Mae Zeigler and Mickey Fisher, are no exceptions. Neither are any other Triads, for that matter ; each girl recognizes the importance of her own contribution to the whole and determinedly lives up to the pattern that has been set. Mention of Dinky Haynes. council member of the Athletic Association or Lucy Parnell. staff member of Milestones, assures the observer that this club has its allotted share of star material. Activities included this year, both parties and luncheons in addition to participation in all club activities with both day student and boarding student sister clubs. Intellect in the persons of Jane Courtney. Margaret Hen- derson, and Carolyn Robinson mingles with the beauty of Martha Grissim, Mickey Fisher, Eleanor Whitworth, and Elizabeth Graves, probably tiniest of all loyal Triadians. Humor of Nancy Gunn mixes well with the serious serenity of Joanne Hampton, and all these ingredients have baked into a 1940 pictorial pie of genuine good taste and indi- viduality.

Roberta Dortch, well rewarded for her Milestones work in 1940, has been chosen to edit the book in 1941 ; Ethel Butterweck. al ways athletically ashine, will be next year ' s new Athletic Asso- ciation president ; Martha Moore, new Senior class presi- dent ; and Jean Murtagh, treasurer of the Y.

The spring horse show saw the X. L. ' s again victorious, when, due to the horsemanship of Lily and Mary Byrd. Mary Jane Becker.

The reason for this state of affairs is the fact that the school holds so much of beautiful tradition that, unless one is made of stone, the time is bound to come when a sus- picious moisture will fill the eye. Events such as chili ceremonies, the Senior-Senior-Middle ban- quet, and Class Recognition Day stir the loyalty, not only of Seniors, to heretofore unknown depths. All this serves only to heighten the sense of responsibility of each individual girl to her class and her school. When the words of the pledge are spoken, she binds herself inseparably to the ideals of her school. Ward-Belmont. Years ago Miss Mary Norris conceived the idea that a day should be set apart in each vear for the recognition of each class in its respective group, so in the fall of 1939 the tradition was again observed and Miss Norris was asked to speak. Each class was fittingly garbed in its chosen colors and preceded by the class officers, carrying the banner. Around the campus circle they marched, a gleaming pattern of white, only to converge before Blanton Building to give their undivided attention to the words of the author of their ceremony. Each year the custom continues ; each year it endears itself more deeply to the hearts of Ward-Belmont girls. Page Eighty-Eight r j FAG DAY No comed_y cartoon ever filmed, holds more of the humorous than the annual Fag Day at Ward- Belmont, during which time new students are informally initiated into their chosen social clubs. Obediently the bewildered novice is put through the most ridiculous of paces while dressed in a costume symbolic of the club. This September the program waxed gayer than ever, weirdly assorted figures cavorted about the campus, ate breakfast on the dining room floor, much to the dismay of the waiters. The Del Vers, as green to the tradition as the crepe paper mitts and hats which they wore, knelt humbly in various atti- tudes about the campus, mumbling fragments of nonsensical poetry ; the Penta Taus. dressed in infant wear of all descriptions, stared in open- mouthed amazement at the caricatured paper sack faces of the F. F. ' s. the A. K. sailors, the Tri K donkeys, and the Osiron owls. Timidly the violet T. C. ' s entered the dining room in the wake of the elephantine Agoras who puffed laboriously along, laden with cardboard trunks and tails. The Anti-Pandoras, carrying their symbolic hearts and keys, intermingled with the X. L. babies who chanted. Now I ' m an X. L. baby, soon I ' ll be an X. L. lady! Strange as it seems, it actually takes place at Ward-Belmont each fall. X. L. babies, Tri K donkeys, and Osiron owls arc all in evidence Page Eighty-Nine Anti-Pan, Agora, and F. F. pledges do tin- bidding of old girls q 4 u WASHINGTON ' S BIRTHDAY In Hollywood last year, ' producers ' hair turned gray over the choice of suitable stars to portray Scarlett and Rhett in Gone with the Wind. At Ward-Belmont, the choice of Martha and George in the annual Washington Day cele- bration was not nearly so complicated. Hortense Kelley and Frances Farwell were immediately elected by student vote. The wisdom of this decision was well exhibited in the beautiful ceremony of February 22. when the two de- scended Acklen Hall stairway to rule for a night over a costume-clad court. Hortense Keller ' s own powdered and curled hair topped a lavender satin gown that made spectators gasp in admira- tion. Gold-and-satin-arrayed Frances Farwell made a George Washington that the great man himself might have openly admired. Forty-six couples of seniors danced the minuet as a special feature of the dance program that fol- lowed. Perhaps this year ' s production was even more suc- cessful than that of previous years because of the great charm and dignity of every senior who took part. At any rate, the ceremony has become so vital a part of Ward-Belmont tradition that to cut it from the yearly script would ruin the picture for every student. • dignified, gracious, and February ' 22. 1 40 J BIRTHDAY DINNERS New Year activities bring the January birthday dinner Each year Ward-Belmont honors its students by celebrat- ing individual birthdays at formal dinners in the small din- ing room. As soon as eager guests receive their invitations, they immediately prepare their best bibs and tuckers for the great occasion. At six in the evening- the diners assemble in Acklen Hall to be met by Miss Sisson and Dr. and Mrs. Burk or Dr. and Mrs. Provine. There are usually approximately twenty girls who are so honored each time, yet every dinner is a separate work of art within itself. The table, decorated to characterize the month which it represents, has centerpieces, both beautiful and unusual. Individual place cards and favors contribute much to the festive air. The menus are elaborate, mouth-watering courses of turkey or chicken, mashed potatoes, fresh rolls, and pastry con- coctions that live in the memory for weeks fo come. Table conversation includes every girl, and she comes away with the feeling that birthdays are rather important occasions after all. Perhaps being away from the family hearth on one ' s birthday does have its consolations.

Action began at seven o ' clock in the morning and ceased only at lunch when the final results of the day ' s con- flicts were announced. Seniors and Senior-Middles worked furiously on decorations for weeks before the great premier, and Saturday. April 6. brought acclamation from the most severe critic. Breakfast was a hasty affair in dining rooms almost unrecognizable in their transformations of yellow, white, and pur- ple. Immediately afterward, the freshmen met at the Agora Club to organize their parade, which proved immensely successful. Led by grass- skirted Louise Jahncke, the Senior-Middles hulaed their way around the circle and wound up in a final burst of glory accompanied by the tom-toming of Jean Bloom. The Seniors re- Page Ninety-Two r taliated with a revival of Gone with the Wind, in which carpet-bagger Fat Fanvell and Belle Watling Schrader were easily the most outstanding. Baseball was a seven-inning alternation of cheers and groans — cheers for the victorious Seniors and good-humored groans for the gallant loosers. Tennis and archery were run off simultaneously in order that events might be completed before lunch. Water polo submerged the Seniors, al- though they had previously won hockey and basketball oscars earlier in the year. Bowling, a minor sport, was awarded the Senior-Middles in March. Lunch time gave the Seniors the privilege of entering the dining room in a body as the)- sang the class song. Few diners were capable of heartv enjoyment of the meal until Dr. Burk announced the Seniors as the victors by four points. Although Senior-Middles had striven to steal the performance from their older rivals, they were nevertheless secretly relieved to know that tradition had not been broken in a Senior defeat. So the curtain was brought down to the satisfaction of all and another great epic became a memory in reel history. SENIOR-SENIOR-MIDDLE BANQUET Sea dramas are always box-office successes, so this year the Senior-Middles arranged a cruise for their Senior guests on March 5. 1940. Passports had been sent to each girl and the dining room ingeniously transformed into a ship ' s dining room to make the effect complete. Entertainment and toasts were both overwhelmingly suc- cessful, but the decorations captured the attention of more than one upperclassman. Each window was a porthole, and giant murals on the wall depicted sea views. Life- savers and anchors decorated pillars and miniature boats sailed a calm blue cellophane sea on each table. Perhaps it was tall Doctor Burk who found the greatest difficulty in entering the dining room over the gangplank, but the difficulty involved was well worth the effort of viewing at last the ' handiwork of capable Mary Jane Becker and her art crew. Ship ' s purser, Vicki Michel, introduced the speakers, dressed in a regulation officer ' s coat and white cap. Eirst Mate Jo Sparks, president of the Senior-Middle class, spoke in a seaworthy manner of the ability of the Seniors to steer a straight course, and First-Class Passenger Edith Dailey. president of the Senior class, responded as befitted the dignity and seamanship of the Seniors. An eleven-gun salute, delivered by Jane Steagall. paid the respect due the guests by a grateful second-class passenger, and Captain Burk followed this with a ship ' s report. However, those who prepared to end their journey were startled by the sudden appearance of Stowaway Ethel Butterweck, who aptain ' s table spun main- a yarn about last year ' s Senior-Middles which made them blush and chuckle simultaneously. At last the ship drew into port and the guests disembarked from a highly successful journey on oceans of enjoyment. Over the bounding main on the Senior-M r What such epics as The Birth of a Nation and Caval- cade have been to the motion picture industry. May Day has been in the history of Ward-Belmont. No short-lived celebration, the spring tradition has continued year on year to surpass itself in color, pageantry, and fresh beauty. May 22, 1940, saw a new May Day. a new galaxy of stars, and a cast including a multitude of extras. Script directions placed the triumphal procession first in the order of heralds, standard-bearers, dancers, and high school seniors. The college Seniors and attendant heralds made up the second reel of the year ' s epic, and following this, the crowning of a more beautiful May Queen than Hollywood itself could produce. Plot of the pageant cen- tered around dances of spring and vacation tours. Greet- ings were delivered by pulchritudinous postmen and danc- ing representatives from West Point, Radio City. Mexico, Scotland, and other sections of home and foreign fields. The May Pole finale differed from previous years in that high school girls carrying varicolored flower arches took part in addition to the advanced ballet students and replaced the numerous May Poles of former years. Scenes had been rehearsed for weeks, costumes designed by Miss Delaney had been planned down to the last zipper, and the finished production was as smooth a collective per- formance as the greatest of an M-G-M masterpiece. -K The Queen and her attendants arrive in true Ward-Belmont fashion. -K Seniors form a color- ful part of the whole pageant. ■ .May Day grand finale i Pole dance. ■caches a the May A V IV zM s q u A c c o arb C S T athlet I c PEGGY SEDWITZ O e a u tif u I BETH HOLCOMBE Ch arming CE i p I o m a t i c ELAINE KENT BETTY JENKINS ©ntertaining MARIE LACKEY Aashionab MARTHA HAYNES g enerous « h umorous MARIAN RYAN VIRGINIA COBLENTZ Mntellectua Jolly WINKIE PIERCE VIRGINIA GRAVES Kin d MARTHA BRYAN i l oyal _ lazi .™ ind I CHRISTIE SCHRADER Pof i?

As Senior choristers harmonize for the last time, they realize that they are suddenly become alumnae, no longer subject to the school, but forever a part of its great body of graduates. This year, as always, the white-clad step singers sang with all the emotion of those about to depart from a beloved home. Graduation, following close on its heels, is the final scene of a great production. Noted for the speakers it presents, Ward-Belmont leaves a warm, though often tearful, glow in the hearts of its graduates. This year will be no exception to a well-established rule, as cap and gowners lend awed ears to the words of graduates of long ago. So, with the planting of the customary ivy, the final singing of the Senior song by the Class of 1940, and the long march from Blanton Building to Acklen Hall, the Seniors relinquish their active part in Ward-Belmont life. Along with all the pageantry of the various acts comes the reali- zation that two of the most perfect years of their lives are now gone forever to dwell among the precious memories of their college days. The last word has been spoken, the house lights go up, and the curtain closes on one of the most successful seasons Ward-Belmont has ever known.

' The glorious spirit of [-9-4-0 Will linger forerermorc. made GO Pane One Hundred Twenty-Nit OO SENIOR-MIDDLE CLASS In September of 1939, approximately 190 college freshmen entered the gates of Ward-Belmont. Many of these were already outstanding in intellect, brawn, or creative ability ; some were yet to prove themselves. In the months that passed, new personalities, new abilities were made in- creasingly evident in the ranks of the 190. Extras became featured players and worked their way to stardom — some overnight, others via the long, steady grind of initiative. But all of them contributed in some measure to make the Senior-Middle class of 1940 a smash hit. Under the experienced guidance of Sponsor Linda Rhea, class members chose their officers early in the year. Tem- porary president Ann Rolfe relinquished her leadership to Miss Linda Rhea, Senior-Middle Spons parks, Rice, Bauman, Masengill good-natured Josephine Sparks and a cabinet composed of Anita Williamson, vice-president; Carlene Rice, secretary; Mary Elizabeth Masengill, boarding student treasurer; Mary Frances Charlton, day student treasurer ; Mary Bauman, sergeant at arms. The month of December was a busy one for Senior- Middles. The fourth of the month brought them out in all the glorv of purple sweaters and white pork-pie hats to witness the defeat of their team in a hard-fought battle with the more adept Senior hockey team. Six days later, the Senior-Middles, bearing no grudge, honored the Seniors, as well as the faculty, with a coffee in beautiful Acklen Hall. Yet the Senior-Middles had had their own private entertain- ment November 18. Best formals were pressed, sandals were redyed. and stray locks were set in shining splendor for the Senior-Middle dance which proved a great success. Blustery March was the occasion for the nautical but nice Senior-Senior-Middle banquet which lauded the efforts and achievements of the Seniors in a most seaworthy fashion. The thirteenth day of April brought the Seniors a challenge from their younger sisters in the form of all-day recreation in a variety of sports. Class loyalty ran high, according to tradition, although the Seniors marched trium- phantly off with top honors. As a class. College ' 41 has done very well for itself. Fidelity. Founders, and Hail Halls house a well-behaved, congenial group of college freshmen. There are bound to be critic raves over such stars as versatile Mary Aileen Cochran. Nancy Young, Vicki Michel. Nancy Deen and Louise Jahncke. just as there are bound to be students and faculty who cannot forget the triumphs of Virginia Love Graves, Ethel Butterweck, Jessie Osment, Gerda Wootten. Shirley Allison, and the like. A most promising bunch of newcomers, they should prove themselves within the next year worthy of the notice given them in 1940.
