The deer park, the orchards, and the art gallery which stood near Acklen Hall have long since passed away; fashions have come and gone; rules have changed with the years ; but timeless are the ideals upon which Ward- Belmont School was founded. The 1944 Milestones staff has endeavored to bring to you a small comparison of the Belle of ' 13 and the Belle of ' 44. Don ' t let those old-time clothes fool you. She is the same kind of girl that vou are. She yelled at the hockey games, laughed in chapel, and cried when the time came to say Good-bye. We hope that as you turn the pages of this, your book, you will feel as we did the rich heritage which she has left to us, and which we will pass on to others. on tents ADMINISTRATION CLASSES ACTIVITIES CONSERVATORY SPORTS CLUBS CAMPUS LIFE - VS-Osj . ' CTT ' - OJC?c-M,A cJJedication It is one who symbolizes to us the lasting qualities of Ward- Belmont whom we wish to honor. In the history of the school, her name and that of her family stands high. A graduate of Ward Seminary, she returned to Ward-Belmont School in nineteen hun- dred and twenty-one to render twenty-two years of untiring service in the bookroom, the Registrar ' s Office, and most of all in the bank. Her friendliness and advice to all have made her a favorite of each girl on the campus. And so it is to Mrs. C. N. Bryan that we wish to dedicate the nineteen hundred and forty-four issue of Milestones; and with it is dedicated the love and devotion of each Ward-Belmont sfirl.

BURK IP res i dent An insight into the character of young people and a dependable judiciousness are combined in iJoctor J ' .urk to make an understand- ing and tolerant president whose executive powers are diluted with a true sense of humor. Ilis influence will be a lasting one. Page Twelve MR. CHARLES P. HOGARTH ' Dean of Faculty Possessing a willingness to be of assistance to all students with scholastic problems, Dean Hogarth has also shown his inspiration in the organization of Hood and Gown and Phi Theta Kappa. MISS ANNIE ALLISON l nncipiil oj l ix ' jniriitonj School Instilling- in the preparatory school g ' irls a sense of honor, loyalty, and reverence, Miss Annie adds her modicum to the character of each girl. All feel that they have gained something fine through knowing her. MISS GERTRUDE CASEBIER :ytuchut G oHnse o;- • Miss Casebier is a counselor in the true sense of the word. Her friend- liness, guidance, and real .Southern hospitality mark this lady and com- mand the respect of every Ward-I ' el- mont j irl. Patjc PourUcn MISS ALMA PAINE IR.egistvar Gracious and charming. Miss Paine is sought out by each new student.

ALAN IRWIN ecin of Gonservatonj of fflusic Music students testify to Dean Irwin ' s fine musician- ship and excellent instruction, for more than one of them have been inspired by him to greater musical heights.

Page Thirty-Five II i s eiiior- iddle Gl ass From the mass of bewildered Freshmen that stepped on the campus last September has de- veloped one of the biggest and liest Senior- Middle classes that ' ard-Belmont has ever seen. The Mids began a successful year by winning the hockev game at the fall Senior-Senior- Middle day in November. They continued to excel in sports throughout the year, l)oth with- in their clubs and as a class. Originality came to the front at the annual Senior-Senior-Middle banquet in . pril. Dr. Alfred Crabb ' s book. Dinner at Belmont, was used as the theme and the dining room was decorated as for one of the famous Acklen din- ners. A clever program made this traditional affair a high light of the year for the Seniors. As for individual achievements, Vanda Nel- son set a record by making a 3.5 average, the highest e -er made at Ward-Belmont. Polly Summers, with her discussion on inter-American cooperation in the regional contest, won $500 for study and travel in Mexico. She attended the national contest in Yashington, D. C. The pep and enthusiasm of this class has made a good beginning for a promising class of 1945.

The Freshman Class established the foundation for a good record with Jane Edwards as president and Miss Sadler as sponsor. Under the leadership of Ellen Warner the Sophomores, assisted by their sponsor, ] Irs. Brooks, found a vital place in the Prep organization waiting for them. The Junior Class, led by Jane Stone Cleveland, continued with the excellent record they established in the past two years. Mrs. J. R. Shackel- ford was the sponsor of this class. All three classes working hand in hand have succeeded in making them- selves a vital part of the life on the Ward-Belmont campus.

The Student Council serves as a balance between the student Ixxly and the administration. The council assumes as one of its duties the comprehension of the ideals of Ward- Belmont, and the promulgation of the understanding of the purf)oses of the school by the students. Each member is aware of her responsibility as a rep- resentative of the student body, and slie endeavors to give each particular case, no matter how small, her serious consideration and unbiased judgment.

Pafje Fifty-Four That makes three minors and one major today, says Prexy Anne White, as the last repenting soul walks humbly out of the day Student Council. In those well- known Monday sessions each of the more mischievous girls knows that her Day of Reckoning has come. Although firmness is the order of the day, an equal and impartial justice is extended to all. But, perhaps the most important function that this efficient council performs is not passing judgment, but putting a thorn in the side of all would-be offenders.

The Sunday Vesper Services are conducted by Chairman Mar- jorie Myers. They f eature regularly an interesting speaker and a music solo.

The Hyphen staff, headed by capable liditor Jean Howerton, has striven, as have other staffs since 1914, to give the students of Ward-Belmont a paper which is worthy of them — a paper which interprets the principles of the school through the eyes of its students. Page Fifty-Eight From the beginning of this year, the stafif of Milestones has been working to bring you this yearbook. There is no denial that it has been hard work, but there is in its completion the satisfaction of having done a job well and the added joy of being able to leave some lasting thing for the school we have learned to love so much. Looking through this book, you will find that the staff has attempted to catch some of the memories you will al- ways have and put them in the book in the form of pic- tures and write-ups. Of course, it is impossible to put all the memories of one school year into one volume, but per- haps there is enough here to remind you of the many things which could never be written or put into pictures. This book has meant untiring effort on the part of the editor, full cooperation on the part of the stafif, and the guidance of the faculty sponsor. To you it should mean a thing to keep and to look through many times in the years after you have left ' ard-Relm ont. f-roiii kit to right, hack nnv: Lorrai. e Perdue, Margaret Burk, Karen Larsox, Susax Russell, Florence Andrews [ean How- ERTciN.

Girls who are prominent in any or all sports become active members of this organization. Eight stu- dents who were outstanding in various sports last year were elected managers, and it was tiieir job to plan the year ' s club games and to take care of all equipment.

All first- and second-year students take part, either by acting in the cast or by assisting back stage. Aside from the presentation of this play, the Speech Department gives a Christmas and an Easter play, and also several one-act plays, monologues, and chapel programs. Bunny Holcombe, Veronica Beckelhymer, Katharyn Bowers, Margaret Burk, and Margaret Ann White are some of this year ' s most promising students. The aim of the Speech Department is twofold : first, to give some student presentations, but most important, to help the student acquire a well-modulated voice. flrt nh The Art Club is one of the largest organizations on the campus, being made up of about 175 students. The club ' s sponsor is energetic Miss Mary W. Shackelford, and the president is none other than original Winky Andrews. These are no starving, out-of-this-world geniuses, but they are capable, versatile, patriotic girls contributing as much to school life as to still life. Its purpose being art, the club p resents frequent exhibitions of contemporary artists. Individual effort is rewarded in the spring with a student exhibit of the best work of all the art classes.

Mrs. Souby, sponsor of the club, is one of its mo.st enthusiastic members. Good times are not entirely forgotten, for once a year they enjoy a picnic where in ' telligence is forgotten and gaiety reigns. Contrary to the belief of the uninformed, the Math Clul) is not a group of dull individuals who meet monthly to decipher difificult mathematical oddities. In fact, this group has more fun at their meetings than almost any other club on the campus. After a snappy business meeting with Mary Richards presiding, the mathematicians jjlay liridge (jr are taught the .skills of chess while munching refresh- ments. Miss Frances Falvey and Miss F.ertha Burress, sjjonsors, add to the gaiety by joining members in a bridge game, or hel])ing some of ' the less proficient i)layers.

Members of the sextet, under the capable direction of Miss Elizabeth Adams, are Mary Clark Webster and Virginia Strickler, so- pranos ; Lois Hindman and Hilma Seay, second so- pranos ; Betty Ruth Davis and Amelia Brent, altos. Each girl is dressed in costume to represent a foreign country. Nancy Kellogg plays a violin obligato for one number and Emily Barnes is the accompanist. The girls have made several radio broadcasts and have presented various chapel programs as well as provid- ing entertainment for the D. A. R. convention held in Nashville.

Proof of the popularity of this group are the rug-cutters who crowd the floor. Working constantly for rhythmic interpretation of the many hit tunes in their repertoire are the follow- ing members : Anne Massie, piano ; Martha Pratt, drums ; Dolores Leibrock, saxophone ; June Wilson, saxophone ; Pat Reeme, saxophone ; Sara Sue Jones, saxophone ; Nancy Kellogg, vioUn ; Lyn Ivy, flute ; Margene Young, accor- dion ; Marilyn Bass, clarinet ; Lorell McCann, clarinet ; Mary Beth Mead, clarinet ; Lorraine Perdue, trumpet. Southern IBelles The Southern Belles, under the direction of Mr. Kenneth Rose, is an extracurricular string group pri- marily for the enjoyment of the girls who participate in it. They have given different programs in chapel, entertained the Woman ' s Club in Murfreesboro, and ■played for the traditional George Washington pro- cessional. Their formal dress and Southern air add color and charm to any occasion. Members of the group are: Violins: first, Shirley Bartlett, Helen Johnson; sec- ond, Nancy Kellogg, Jo Liven ; third, Mary Laura Can- non, Lois Unfug ; fourth, Frances Ragland, Lily Jean Meaders.

En- thusiasts turned out by the scores to make extra large classes for the fall season. The Tri K team, captained by Nancy Hart, drove, flicked, dribbled, pushed, and scooped its way to victory. They took the cup without a final match, as their only contenders, the Penta Taus, were eliminated when they tied the T. C. ' s. Other outstanding club teams were the Agoras, X. I.. ' s, and Aristons. The Senior-Mids took the Seniors by a close score of one to nothing in a thrilling and colorful bout. This very first meeting of the two classes on an athletic field marked the beginning of an exciting year of friendly rivalry.

The bowling season this year was exceptionally fine. Better bowling forms were seen gracing the alley in both prep school and college. The en- thusiasm shown in the classes, tournaments, and the Saturday night gatherings made this sport one of the most important of the year and Ward-Belmont ' s most popular all-round activity.

The annual water-polo bout between Seniors and Mids in the spring was exciting to all and new to many. The Seniors won the game by a score of ten to two.

A project of the Phys- ical Education Department, TOPS is an endeavor to help the war effort, and at the same time to build for the future by offering to the students an organization for the de- A ' elopment of health, character, and leader- ship. Each girl who enlists in TOPS pledges herself to do one hour of war service a week, act as a member of the color guard for two weeks, attend drill regularly, serve on the inspection squad if asked, and invest ten per cent of her allowance in war stamps. Promotions are made to those girls who have shown initiative and responsibility. TOPS is one way the students of Ward- Belmont are expressing their willingness to help Uncle Sam. In some small way TOPS is making a contribution to the war effort ; but more than that, it is training its members to have better disciplined minds, healthier bodies, and stronger characters.

Hitting the bull ' s-eye is not as simple as it might look. Long hours of practice are necessary to ac- quire the skill and accuracy that is essential, but Jane Gray Knowles, Carolee Austin, Nicki Nicol, and Shirley Hunt have proved that the bull ' s-eye can be conquered. This year the Senior-Middles topped the Seniors with a small margin of twenty-six points in the annual archery bout on Senior-Senior Mid Day in the spring. T( enms Star of the year is Dottie Bass, who captured the singles cup for the X. L. ' s at the beginning of the year. Outstanding on Senior-Senior Middle Day were Jane Clark and Curly Neal, and Jean Buttorff and Dolores Leibrock, who won the doubles matches, as well as Shirley Juhan, winner of the singles. Such enthusiasts as Jean Whitson and Martha Ouinn have been romping around the courts all year. Winners of the spring doubles tournament were Martha Ouinn and Dorothy Wooten, who secured the cup for the Eccowasin Club mantel.

Also future Hole-in-oneists are Martha Quinn, Karin Larson, and Betty Arthur. Marie Mount drove her way to the green with perfect shots for the second year, and Jean Howerton joined the ranks of enthusiastic beginners, who, by the end of the year, were able to hold their own with some of the old hands of the fairway. Practicing up, Dottie? l asehall As spring comes to Vard-Belmont, you find many enthusiastic baseball players keeping the diamond hot through long hours of practice. Baseball is the only team sport offered during this season, so the competition between the clubs and classes is keen. The Seniors claimed the victory on Senior-Senior Middle Day by accumulating one more run than the Middles. Pitching for the Seniors was John, while Dievendorff and Belle Meade put ' em over the plate for the Mids. Those home runs and long drives out toward center field were probably made by Perdue, Juhan, Curly, Drick, or Mead.

The Agoras represent many varied qualities in the way of legislative, scholastic, and social activities as illustrated by several of their members. Bouncing prexy, Betty Ar- thur, added to her list of athletic accomplishments the highest honor in school, that of Ensemble Girl, while Anne Massie was elected president of the Student Council. Nicki Nicol, president of the Athletic Association, was also a member of Phi Theta Kappa. A. J. Haworth, Bar- bara Blythe, and Mickey Marshall hold up the cultural side as music majors, while vice-prexy Judy Dunham con- tributes a frequent witticism and an occasional literary attempt. The Agora spirit accounts for the cups on the mantel- piece : these include scholarship and swimming cups won the second time. The logical conclusion is that the humorous, well-liked group is one of the most popular on campus. Florence Denslow IZABETH Wesley Hu.

The Del Vers had more than their share of talent with artists Betty Brooker and Sue Russell and contralto Lita Stacker. Vanda Nelson of the Senior-Middle Class and Betty Barnes of the Senior Class led in scholarship. In sports, Jean Proffitt, Peggy Westmoreland, and Perdue shone in hockey, baseball, and especially basketball. Just as outstanding on a dance floor were lovelies, Jewett, Judy Johnson, Dotty Huggett, and Marge Dievendorff. Two of the wittier girls were Nancy Breithaupt and Jean Rogers. The aims of this club — sportsmanship, scholarship, and friendship — were fully realized by the end of the y ear. Club spirit was high : wins and losses in sports were taken in the spirit typical of the Del Vers. Memorable events were Fag Day (when the new girls hopped like frogs to breakfast), the first hockey game, the dances, the chicken on Lou Graham ' s birthday, slumber parties, and the party for their sister club, the Anti-Pans. But best of all, the Del Vers proved that their club was a growing organization that lived up to its own high ideals throughout the year.

Ernie Morris and Sue Scheib donned boots and breeches to win for P. T. the coveted riding cup in the fall, while Curly Neal led the Senior Class, as well as participating in all sports. If ever there ' s mischief a-brewin ' in club village, you can expect to find Mike Bresnahan, Jeanne Driscoll, and Mary Richards in the thick of it. Gay, charming girls all, the P. T. ' s carry one ideal first ni their minds — to hold high the standards of the club to which they belong; and one hope in their hearts — to carry with them forever their memories of Penta Tau.

She was ably advised by Mrs. Margaret Hall, their sponsor. Ellielyn Lechleiter was in charge of the programs every Tuesday noon. The treasury was success- fully run by Jane Haynes. Carolyn Burch was a capable secretary. In the way of sports the Triads were outstanding. Emmie and Milbrey Jackson were both on high school basketball varsity ; Annella Creech, college basketball varsity ; and Dorothy Goodin, college bowling varsity. Zealous members of TOPS this year were Joan Kamp- meier, Monica Joy, Helen Elizabeth Keith, Margaret Blair, and Betty Jamison. The Triads have received due recognition on the campus, Monica Joy being active on council, Christine Stother being vice-president of the Senior-Middles, and Carol Bay, Dale Goldsby, and Catherine Dillard being members of Hood and Gown.

Already they are gloating and jjlan- ning their victories of next year. Paffe One Hundred Sixteen ' 9 ' nion As the chimes play the famihar Bells of Ward-Behnont, the tra- ditional ceremony of Class Recogni- tion Day begins. In stately white the classes march around the cir- cular drive, and take their place in front of the Academic Building. New girls feel for the first time the high idealism and class spirit as they repeat together the pledge. Each old girl feels anew a spirit of loyalty as she again pledges herself to trans mit this school, not less, but greater, better and more beautiful than it was transmitted to me. After the presentation of the let- ters by Dean Hogarth and a short talk by Miss Mary Norris, origi- nator of the day, the classes march back around the circle — this time with an awakened consciousness of this, their school, and of the ideals for which it stands. Each year the custom continues, it endears itself more deeply to the hearts of Ward- Belmont girls. Page One Hundred Scven ' en alloiceen and luter-Hdll T arties The annual occurrences on All-Hallovvs-Eve at Ward-Belmont are unpredictable and spine-tingling. ■hile a formally attired student body sits, unsuspect- mg, over its collective tomato juices, evil plans that have been long a-brewin ' erupt with the sudden dousing of lights and appearance of bona fide apparitions trip- ping in a ghostly fashion over hampering shrouds, who swoop down upon the diners with much clanking of chains and blowing of horns. After the lights have been turned on, the be-ruffled students return with knowing grins to the festive meal, admiring meanwhile the elab- orate table decorations and clever menus, upon which the Ward-Belmont girl is quite willing to let down her hair and become young again. Another hilarious occasion at Ward-Belmont is the Inter-Hall Party, filled with the suspense of athletic competition, highlighted by the brilliant and originally decorated rooting sections, and annually enlivened by the much-applauded entrance of the sober members of the faculty, dressed this year in bagging bloomers and red bow ties, and going through an elaborate and be- fuddled drill under their Flops banner. Spirit and energy are boundless, and a cup is awarded to the hall with the best decoration and most consistently high- scoring average.

At the early hour of seven, enthusiasts from both classes dashed from the halls to decorate the archery range, baseball bleachers, swimming pool, and the campus in general. The big parade started at nine o ' clock. The Mids came first dressed in their uniforms; colorful floats added to the festivity. The Senior Darn ' Em Daily Circus complete with band, sword swallowers, clowns, Indians, and animals marched in style around the circle. The sports of the day included tennis, archery, baseball, and water polo. The Seniors were victors in tennis, baseball, and water polo, but lost the archery meet. The day closed with a picnic given in Club ' illage. After the fried chicken and lemon pies had been downed. Dr. Burk presented the cup to the Senior Class, and the day of friendly rivalry ended with the sing- ing of the Bells of Ward-Belmont. Strike one!

The south lawn -as -ividly beautiful for this special afternoon. The Preparatory School Sen- iors, eowned solely in white, filed slowly to the left of the white pillared throne, where they stood awaiting the entrance of the College Sen- iors who, gowned in soft spring colors of pastel blue, pink, yellow, green, and orchid, marched in twos to seat themselyes at the right of the throne. Eyeryone was quietly expectant and a Page One Hundred Turnty-Si.v thrill ran over the assembled audience as the orchestra played the first strains of Pomp and Circumstance, announcing the entrance of the Queen ' s white carriage, drawn by a matched pair. This year Marnie Petrie reigned as Queen, with College Maid, Gloria Watkins, and Pre- paratory !Maid, Frances Johnston, attending. The Queen, after receiving her crown in a charm- ing coronation ceremony, watched a varied pro- gram of dances and TOPS drill. The failing light dimmed the bright outlines of another gra- ciously beautiful May Day at Ward-Belmont. Page One Hundred Tivcnty-Sezrn tekdaHh FRANCES JOHNSTO GLORIA WATKINS ■ ««r ARNIE PETRIE . : ' - ' uJkMf ra duatioi The Senior Class of 1944 march around the circle, united for the last time. Amid smiles and tears they will receive that long-desired diploma. After commencement, the class will be scattered over all points of the United States, but nevertheless they will remain united in spirit. They have left behind them a record to be proud of — one to inspire other Senior Classes to come. The words of the Senior song still sound in their ears; And though we must part from each other some daj ' , as Seniors have parted before, that glorious spirit of old ' 44 will linger forevermore. Step t u Step singing — that occasion to which all look forward with a mingled feeling of joy and sorrow. One of the most traditional of Ward-Belmont ' s activities. Step Sing- ing is an event that lives forever in every student ' s heart. As the Seniors yield their place to next year ' s Senior Class, they realize more fully that they are leaving Ward-Belmont forever. The memories they have shared, the friendships they have made, will remain in their hearts forever.
