And so she always thinks of 1937 as her first class at Welles- ley. In the course of a distinguished, and comparatively short career. Miss Heidbreder has studied and taught at a number of different universities and colleges. She was graduated from Knox, received her master ' s degree from the University of Wisconsin, her doctorate from Columbia, and then taught for ten years at the University of Minnesota. Along the way, she spent a sabbatical year at the University of London, where she learned to plan the day ' s work around the sacred institution of tea. Miss Heidbreder has done a great deal of valuable research in psychology. She carried on experimental studies in the higher thought processes, a field in which her predecessors at Wellesley, Miss Calkins and Miss Gamble, were also interested. She was among the first three scholars to delve into the psychology of personality. And, as member of a research staff financed by the U. S. commission for studying problems of migration, she published the discoveries of her group in an authoritative work called The Minnesota Mechanical Ability Tests. Her most recent book is one on seven schools of psychology. In the three years she has been here, Miss Heidbreder has seen a number of changes in Welleslev in general, and in her department in particular. The psychology depart- ment is now housed in a beautiful new building, whose special feature is individual experimental rooms; it is gradually acquiring new laboratory equipment. The en- rollment in psychology is steadily increasing, showing the tendency of youth ' s in- terest in human problems. Miss Heidbreder believes. Perhaps another reason for the popularity of psychology is Miss Heidbreder herself. Not only is she a brilliant scholar, with a remarkable store of knowledge, and a gift for presenting material clearly but she is also a charming lecturer; she makes the subject vital and interesting, and inspires her students with that intellectual curiosity which is the chief end of a college education. 1937 proudly welcomes her to its ranks. « « « « « « « « « « « « « « « « « « « « « « « « « « « « « « I lineleen cytunarea i-j C v_J C ' - ' - ' ' ' ' ' (j ' cJeven [40] Edna F.

Cleland ' oyd (McAfee The class of 1937 proudly welcomes to its membership, Dr. McAfee, who in addi- tion to being an eminent theologian, author, professor and lecturer, bears distinction as father of Wellesley ' s President. I am glad that my honorary membership in ' 37 carries with it the added honor of appearance in Legenda in a group much more attractive than any of which I have ever formed a part. Perhaps I can best express my apprecia- tion by telling Legenda of an interesting sequence of events in my educa- tional life. The first class graduating B.A. to which I was admitted was in a College of which my father was the President; the latest (which I suspect will be the last) class to which I am admitted is in a College of which my daughter is the President. How to be a worthy son of my father and father of my daughter is a study in procedures which has given me life -long pleas- ure. I am still somewhat baffled to know how, as one who must always be a mere alumnus, I can become even an honorary member of a group com- posed of alumnae, but I am leaving this to the Latin Department which by this time is accustomed to a good deal of limping in the current use of Latinisms. It is cheering to think of another group of young women coming out of College in a time so interesting and critical in world affairs. I trust that ' 37 will enter upon a long and helpful career in the service of such a time. Sincerely, or should I say Fraternally, Cleland B. McApee. « « « « « « « « « « « « « « « « « « « « « « « « « « « « « « l lineieen tTlunarea -o C vj C i- O ana L litriy C even [42] Bachrach Cleland Boyd McAfee Honorary Men?ber of the Class of 191 7                Qlineteen ufitnJreJ L, 8 Q 8 V JT cA- and ' Cliirip (oJei      _ _         Virginia B.

Wat i meen is? the teechers will no i paye a lott of atenshun too mi homewirk. Of coarse it takes a lott of tyme M and ( ) i haf spent a hole day on one page butt i can go fast wen i rite too yu, four practise. Before i tell you about everythin, dew yu mynd if I rite a few signes wich i nevr used yett @ %% , and espucially wat I neede too use a lot is $$$$. With thiss swell triperiter I I won ' t hav to show peeple the medal I w on in high scool. my room looks like a prison a litel bit, but Sue gave mee a pictur of her hansome brother and that covers upp the brown spott abov the bureauo. I tell peeple he — the pictur — is mi O and O, wich is short four One and Onli, becaus everuwon hass hansome picturs. Yess, i hav bin drinking plenti of milk as yu told mee too do, and yess the food is fyne except i am getting tyred of the color sceme of graye and brown a littel bitt. wen i gott hear a vil junior told mee mi name. Wat i meen is, they call them vil juniors, because everythin around hear is called short, lyke vil for vilage and libe for that big bldg. wich they took us thru to show us the room wich wee can ' t sleep in, tho it was made for sleeping, becus the room is closed becaus someone took a book out — wich is wat i thought libes were for, I meen to take books out. and they hav short names lyke lit. for english and ec. and zo. I axed somewun ' zo wat ' — and they maid a face, so i gess its nott veri nvcc. Then the vil jr. sed wee wood hav a gray book test, and i couldn ' t seam to remember having itt in high school, but shee sed it was something about signing out, but that freshmen couldn ' t sine out veri much butt that thev had to know wen they couldn ' t sine out, and wen thwy couldn ' t smoke even tho other classes cud smoke. I gess it ' s something I ' ke knowing wat peeple in China are doing by knowing that in China it ' s yes- terday insted today. Welle, i hav bin going too so mani tees on wich i had to pin my name that i now kno howe too hold a teecup and still bee able to eet a sandwhich. i still cant tell won bldg. frum anuther butt i sup- pose they all hav classes so it doesnt : « « « « « « « « ■« « « « « « « « « « « « « « « I lineieeii Olundred j C VJ G i- C T- and K nirii! cJevaii [112] matter. They giv us crazi tests about do yu get dizzy wen yu look up at a bldg, or something. And it turned out that i amm principly ascetic. And wee put on a skitt at the vowdeville about The Lost Ele- vator. my big sister, who says she ' ll teech me the ropes wich meens, i gess, the fire things that hang in hour rooms, is taking mee too a dance wher ther are onli girls wich isn ' t so much fun, but i mite as well be polite because mi big sister is trying so hard too be nice. i am lerning to ryde a bycyle wich i bought for three $, and it is orange, and i call it amoeba, becaus it was the onli wun left to cell — Amoeba: one cell. As yet i hav not seen ani of those loads of men wich magazines say happen around freshmen, hut i am hoping, i hav bought everythmg that the upper class peeple told mee to, lyke newspapers and concert tickets and service fund and gud books cheap and an old set of drapes. a lott of things hav bin happening, so i havnt had a hole day too sit down and rite you a letter, thi Darn Cossacks sang hear and they were veri gud even tho i kno now that i shudn ' t hav bought tickets in the front row of the orch. And the sopomores serenayded the fresh, with red lanterns and it reely sounded lyke grand uproar. Then wee had too seren- ayde them back again on hazing day, and i wore mi green ribbon under my hare but somewun caught mee even tho i cant carrv a tune and didnt kno the wirds, so they maid mee push a penny across the floor with my nose, wich hirt veri much. wee had a dance in hour house and a gurl gott me a blind date, wich doesnt meen that he cant see, butt i wishd i cudn ' t see wen I saw him, becaus he was an ish, wat i meen is, he was veri funny looking, butt i cut in on other men, wich is wat yu can do hear, becaus they ' re all blinds almost. We won the feeld day honors wich is onli natural since we hav nothing else to dew but bee horsey, becaus there are no men. wat is thiss N.R.A. that everione is talking about? Is ther anithing in the papars about it? a gurl axed mee the other day and I sed i didnt kno butt i thought it mite be lyke C.O.D. at home, but different in Boston. Wee had to rite practikally a book wich they call sourse theme hear, and i was up all nite long with those cards spread around me on the floor, as tho i wanted to plav solitaire. Butt soon I will be home for vacation, and i thinck may- bee i cud stand a new dress, becaus its a funni thing how all the freshmen gayn weight even tho we wirk ourselves to the bone, staying up all nite to talk about Life and Love, so mi clothes don ' t look so well, wat with fifteen pounds. i sumtimes wonder how I live thru all i do, wat with those aweful exams and staying up all nite to commune with mi                      :        Q lneieen Qfunclred L8Q8 T fD c5 anJ ' Zlnrfy ofe [113] even sole about how i wishd i had dun mi wirk all yeer. wen i took my exam in Bil- lings it was so cold i had to rite with my mittens on wich is no way to tax one ' s brain. thev hav bin talking about a Greek co-ed around hear, butt i ' m sure no one in mi house saw him or we wud kno, be- caus we are looking for men. The faculty arc vcri silly, becaus they putt on a play, and Miss Knapp and Mr. Proctor were angels, and Mr. Harouttunian was a worldly bishop, and Mr. Jenks was Henry the 8, and peeple came and ate their sup- per there to get sects. Norman Thomas, that man who just keaps on being a soshuliast yeer after yeer, talked hear. spring is the nycest tyme at Wellesley, war with Lili Pons, and seniors all tied up in scarfs and rolling hoops to get married furst — as if it mayde any differ- ence how fast yu can run, unless yu can find sumone to run after. we wun the song contest with a song bye Lucille Sylvester. Float Nite was probably dedi- cayted too us, becaus it was Grimm ' s Fairy tales, and Tree day was The Young Prince. Exams are not so badd thiss tyme, be- caus the important thing is too make the train home for vacashun. At least i hav lerned too rite a gud letter thiss yeer: I accept with pleasure your kind invi- tation to vacation this summer. English Composition pamphlet. Your loving daughter. 1935 Dear Mom, old radish Well, your rah-rah college girl is back behind the eight ball. Of course it ' s sort of boring being in the know. You should have seen the faces of the green freshmen when we descended on them with our old clothes, pearls, and savoir faire, but vou know how gauche these children are. We have to explain things to them in tags of one syllable. I suppose this year ' s crop is especially hay-seedy, because I can ' t remember gaping like a hick. But then, you can ' t expect every class to be God ' s gift to Wellesley.

I really don ' t know how I ' m going to handle all mv men this vear, what with only one one o ' clock a week. I ' ll just have to hang out at my chaperon ' s all the time. Your little daughter, Betty Co-ed, is represented at all the men ' s colleges this year, and I don ' t know how I ' ll fit in all the football games. I cer- tainly made time this summer with the boys. But leave it to your little cabbage to get around! I ' m thinking of buving part interest in the Hole-in-the-Wall. If all the ham- burgers I ' ve consumed were laid end to end, I ' m sure I ' d be surprised at what was in them. But I ' ve lost my conscience since I stopped sleeping through hygiene. A bunch of us wrapped ourselves in our best togas and traipsed out to see the American premiere of the Abbey Players here at Wellesley — in Drama at Innish — if you please, Lady Vandersnoot. Put that in your cigarette instead of telling me that I look like a backwoodsman ' s daughter when I come home. Maybe our shoes are sloppy, but we know the score. Don ' t forget to glue your ear to the radio to hear Jet Sayre broadcast. Soon we ' ll be making tabloid headlines, if we keep on coming out of cloistered retire- ment this way. People ought to sit up and take notice when they hear that your pride and joy modeled in a fashion show. I can amble as well as the best Bergdorf model, even though I may have a trace of a Wellesley stride. Fritz Kreisler fiddled while Wellesley burned. When you think of how our cat yowls, it ' s pretty hard to figure out how Fritz can wheedle such swell stuff out of cat gut, or whatever the stuff is. Science certainly is wonderful — though I don ' t know -what it has to do with the price of eggs in China or his playing. And speaking of science, Pres Pen joined the laboring classes and laid the cornerstone of the new science building. I wish the new building could bring me some luck in mv psych., but I guess this is what you call the sophomore slump. Jan Smeterlin wasn ' t half bad, and R.U.R. was swell. I dragged a Harvard man to fall formals, because he ' s the best dancer I ' ve hooked so far. Boy, can that hen line give your date the once-over. No mercy for you if he ' s an Ish. But they sure O.K. ' d my guy, because I couldn ' t get an edge-in all night. Hungry wolves, that ' s what those females are! We have to drag our weary bones out of bed at some God-forsaken hour to go Christmas carolling through the halls,         :      ' fltneieen Otunclred i j C vj C i- CXT. and L htHi Cyei [ 115 1 even and to stick candv canes on the doors of the high and mighty Seniors. I can ' t even say a civil Good morning before breakfast, let alone sing sweetly. I wouldn ' t be at all surprised if your little cherub developed a slight abnormality in the region of her shoulder blades, be- ing so saintly at such an early hour. Got into my glad rags and lured a Dartmouth laddie down from the wilds for Sophomore tea dance. Then he double-crossed me by bringing a friend along who was twice as cute as he was. I made a pass at the friend, but you know how boys are. I think it ' s positively feudal the way they insist on a code of honor. I ' m no man ' s property, to be bantered around. And the friend is aw- fully good-looking. A bunch of us acted as prom maids for Senior prom. We glad-eyed the men, but I guess by the time you ' re an ancient Senior you ' ve got your man, hook, line, and sinker. Deliver me from climbing up on the shelf and concentrating on one male. One man couldn ' t keep me inter- ested for long. Mr. Motter and Mr. Haroutunian are turning to Gilbert and Sullivan for re- laxation. I guess we ' re not diverting enough, or maybe we ' re too much of a tax on them and thev need some wit to loosen them up. Their way of getting even with us is singing in Princess Ida, which is a satire on the academic life of w omen. I could let down my back hair and weep. Just when I decided to go down to Yale for a week-end, I came down with German measles. Fate has a grudge against me these days. If you think it ' s any fun to be stuck in the Infirmary just because you break out in a few red spots — well, ask the man who owns one. And speaking of the Fates, we ' re going this year. Electra was given in Greek. I ' ve been hammering my finger nails off for Float Night, which is going to show the Wanderings of Ulysses. Orchesis will flit through Orpheus and Eurydtce for Tree Day. We ' re certainly getting classi- cal. Maybe you don ' t believe that I wouldn ' t kiss a horse because I ' m so happy that gym is almost over. If I ever see another set of parallel bars I shall probably foam at the mouth. I ' ll get mv exercise chasing my own tail, thank you, or by running water. I don ' t think I ' m the type for modern dancing. I ' d break a leg before I ' d take that again. The prodigal daughter returneth — that is, if she digs up the wherewithal.

A daughter is a junior, love 1937 My dearest maternal parent, I have relegated to my past all such ridiculous fraudulence as a spurious at- titude of collegiate exuberance, or a self- conscious pose of extreme modernism. One must be conscious of one ' s responsi- bility as a Senior. I shall endeavor to bear the burden of Wellesley ' s full aca- demic standards and shall comport my- self with the dignity befitting one of my exalted state. I am engrossed in the pur- suit of intellectual enthusiasms, and I shall devote myself to the pleasures of the mind rather than to the idle search for frivolity. Never more shall I glance long- ingly at green roadsters in vain hopes that some male relaxation will appear on my benighted horizon, but I shall find my Katharsis and my stimulation in erudition. I assure you that my determin- ation is not at all influenced by the fact that I have decided to concentrate my attentions on one favored individual of the masculine sex. On the contrary, my decision does not indicate a negative attitude, but will result in a positive and constructive devotion to classical learn- ing. (Just one moment while I answer the telephone.) I fully realize the awe which I un- doubtedly inspire in the consciousness of the underclassmen, and not for count- less years of scientific research wouki I disappoint them. I consider it totally unnecessary to reveal to them all the           tneieeji c lii                  nJreJ L8Q8 ? Tf c54. anJ ' Vhiriy cfe                even [119] ramifications of Senior-hood. I shall enunciate nothing concerning the fact that I scarcely feel competent to living up to a formal collar. There need be no inti- mation that I inwardly believe myself to resemble a mere child dressed up in adult attirement. I shall merely elevate my chin and ignore the ignominious pins in the back of my formal collar. I am con- vinced that the collar will soon create a groove in my neck and will thus mitigate the discomfort. There is no hope, I have trepidations, that there will ever be any alleviation to the onerous burden and pain imposed by my academic cap. My pride is the only palliative for such dolor. Since underclassmen venerate the Sen- ior custom of seminars, I shall not divulge the fact that my posterior rebels against the imposed torture. I shall reconcile myself to my hardships with imperturba- bility. The pursuit of learning will, I am convinced, assuage my physical ciiscom- fort. A gentleman with a diminutive mus- tache has been summoned and reim- bursed for the singular privilege of snap- ping our Legenda likenesses. There is not a vestige of doubt in my mind that the portraits will not reveal the essence of my beauty, since an accelerated sitting such as was accorded to us cannot do justice to our most advantageous fea- tures. Nevertheless, as the appointment card recommended, I prepared an elabo- rate coiffeur. T. S. Eliot, the noted contemporary literary critic and poet, rendered his only American reading at Wellesley. ' e were accorded this unique privilege since Miss Manwaring, of the Composition and Rhetoric department, enjoys a close ac- quaintance with Mr. Eliot. I was in- trigued by the delightful accent. English men are thoroughly fascinating. Emily Marks has auspicated a Welles- ley chapter of the American Student Union, despite the strenuous objections of people who are apprehensive of social- istic tendencies. The inauguration of Miss McAfee as president of Wellesley was an auspicious occasion. The day emphasized our sin- cere regrets at the death of Pres Pen — we shall never forget what she did for Wellesley. Her contributions are a lasting tribute to her, and she will remain im- mortal in the results of her work and in our memories. We rejoice in the induction of our new president. Her vitality and humor is infectious. I was thrilled by the academic procession of multi-colored robes. What an awe-inspiring tale of devotion to learning was implicit in the many hoods of the faculty members! ' 37 was, of course resplendent in the severity of cap and gown, and underclassmen honored the auspicious day by attiring themselves in white. Miss McAfee smiled as she « « « « « « « « « « « « « •:. — J y-. N % vv vs « S S « % t I hneleen OLutadved L C yjj C J LJ cA and C nVifj; G ei [120] traversed the aisles between the students, and we were captivated by the informal- ity, briskness, and friendliness of her dis- cussion of the function and value of a liberal arts college. President McCracken of Vassar delivered a prelection on The Integrity of a College. Wellesley advocated Landon for Presi- dent of the United States, in conjunction with a very select minority — so select that it was virtually invisible. Agora sponsored an Election Rally, but evi- dently Wellesley ' s predilection for Lan- don did not aid the Republican candidate, as evidenced by the Democratic landslide. The Juniors presented an original musi- cal comedy. In One Ear and Gone Tomorrow, the first such performance to be given at Wellesley. Since everything must point a moral, the versatile Juniors showed that a Wellesley girl can be an honor student and still lure a male. Wellesley provides a balanced program, as you, my dear ma- ternal parent, realize when you hear the I have attended Jan Smeterlin ' s concert. I am distressed by the fact that the man on whom I am concentrating cannot attend fall formals. I may have to stretch my resolution, or else join the No Rata Data society. I cannot credit my conscious senses with the realization that plans for a swimming pool are actually on display. I have aspirations that my grand-daugh- ter will enjoy natatorial relaxation. I have scarcely recuperated from the siege of engagements, marriages, and elopements announced after the cessation of Christmas festivities. I feel it incum- bent on me to concentrate more heavily on the single object of my affections. The contemplation of midyears is only an insufferable bore in the face of such sig- nificant events. I am afraid that Seniors are a lost cause, since their interests go off at a tangent totally unrelated to the grim business of academic pursuits. Senior Prom far exceeded expectations, since we did not devote as much attention to it as we did to Junior Prom. Concen- tration upon one male is a very satisfac- tory condition, especially when my as- sociates have conferred their affections upon a single recipient. I am reasonably certain that I could have attained the singular honor of being lauded as victor in the May Day hoop race if I had behooved myself to arise at 4:00 A.M. in order to obtain an ad- vantageous position at the top of Tower Court hill. Since my interests do not traverse such superficial paths, I pre- ferred to remain in bed until the last moment. I do not believe that a shortened gown and frivolous bandannas around one ' s cap befit one ' s dignity — but I ran as fast as I could. There was a slight in-      fUneieeii Cniindred i—j C v_J C X jLv c and K lniHp Cyev [121] convenience in mv throat and a disturb- ing mist in my eyes at our last step sing- ing. I watched with objective detachment my tremulous reaction to the General. Such trepidation is merely a physical reaction, however, since I am sure I have complete control over my intellectual capabilities. I am glad that I decided to concentrate this year, smce standing on my chair at the class dinner was a compensatory experience. After commencement I shall traverse another aisle, but I am deter- mined that I shall continue to pursue intellectial enthusiasms. Of course I ' ll have to allow a slight cessation of mental activity. Your devoted daughter. P. S. Gee! I ' ll miss this place! I ' d give my hat to be freshman again — or at least a junior with a source theme behind me. « « « « « « « « « «««««« « « « « « « « « Qlineieen Qfundred L 8 Q 8 ' iN JD oA and Uurtv Cyeven [111 ! hc Class of 1937 ANNOUNCES THE ENGAGEMENTS OF Celia Austin to Thomas O ' Niell Maxine Louise Bluhm to Charles Richard King Gretchen Louise Booth to Dwight K.

By climbing over that fence which separates the upper classes from the lower, we discovered that the grass is really greener and far more tasty than that which we had previously been munching. Freshman year pre- sented us with no end of surprises as we were initiated into one new tradition after another. Our qualms about mid-years and that ominous word, pro , can not be exaggerated. Sophomores at last, we were rather smug about our superior knowledge of college events. Nevertheless, we were still in training both academically and socially. Serving our sister class again as prom maid and choosing majors were mo- mentous events of that year. Now as juniors, we are really grown up and ready to take our own place among the big sisters. Perhaps one of the greatest joys of being Juniors is that crossing over the fence enabled us to find academic freedom. As we no longer have to worry about distributing our courses or taking required subjects, we are able to concentrate in our major field. Thus we get added pleasure from our studies, thankful that the ciay of reckoning, the general examination, is still remote, even though we realize that Seniors ' preemin- ence more than makes up for their worries. As big sisters, we have found that it is our turn to lead the new class. Our village juniors have efficiently taken charge of giving the freshmen a good start in college life. In showing their little sisters the Welleslev standards and traditions, they have acted both as disciplinarians and mentors. Even when bowed down by the thought of their own mid-years, the Juniors have been generous with heartening words ai med at instilling moral courage into the uninitiated. As an additional bolster, congenial relaxation was offered to both classes when 1938 gave the Freshmen a tea after their hygiene examination. But of course our activities have not all been on the serious side. This year w e presented to the college an original production, the Junior Show, in accordance with a tradition w hich had lapsed for several years. Such a variety of hidden talent was brought out in all phases of the production that we hope other classes will use this method of discovering each others ' possibilities. After experiencing the long-antici- pated Junior Prom, another high light of our four years at college is tucked into mem- ories. At the climax of the junior year, the last step-singing, the class will turn its face to the new responsibilities it is about to assume. Newly-elected officers and a march- ing song of our very own will suddenly make us realize that we have attained our college maturity. It is with a certain regret, however, that we shall enter our final year since, from that time on, we shall be constantly reminded that each event that takes place will be the last of its kind we shall know as undergraduates. « « « « « « « « « « « « « « « _ « « « iL « n ' ineieen Cnwidred 1 j O Jj C J _, LJ c 4. and L ktriv cJeven [ 130 ] 1938 Officers Edar von L.

We are aware that classes come and go beneath the oaks of Wellesley and that many before us have stood on Tupelo Point and canoed on Lake Waban. We know, too, that even our ideas are not so different from those which went before us. But we insist that there was never a class like ours. We have felt in all our activities as a class as if we were the first to become Ask-Me ' s, the first to carry on Hazing Day and Freshman Court, and the first to plan a Sopho- more Tea Dance. We have participated in all these activities with a vigor that pro- claims for itself our interest and enthusiasm in college life. Our officers have led us and have been the vital part of our class organization, yet, though they were strayed or stolen, the unquenchable spirit of Thirty-nine has never ceased to make itself felt. As sophomores, now , we look back on earlier troubles, rejoicing in present knowledge, and yet, at the same time, we look ahead to two more years of deeper, fuller work. There is much to consider — the deciding of a major, plans for after col- lege, the relation of ourselves to our education and to college life. In two more years we shall be leaving Wellesley as graduates; we see our sister class winding up its four year ' s work. But now we need not think so far ahead. Of the short time that we spend in college, our sophomore year is one in which we can work seriously and enjoy our present experiences without the worry of adjust- ing ourselves, or that of preparing for graduation. Thirty-nine is aware of its oppor- tunities as sophomores. Our members have become prominent in every campus activ- ity; our interests are wide. As individuals, we are interested in getting as much as we can out of college; as a class, we want to make each year more worth while intel- lectually and socially than the last. We are called gay, young sophomores ; pro- verbially we are expected to be sophomoncally earnest about life. To unite all these things on the ground of constructive thought and work is the aim of our sopho- more vear, from which we shall go on to make for ourselves a full college experience. « « « « « « « « « « « « « « « « « « « « « « « « « « « « « « l ' Uneieen zjlunarea, 1 j C v C J i- CVTl and K nirip eleven [ 136 ] ««iftASt - ' 1939 Officers Anna L.

Each of a number of incidents which con- cerned the freshman class as a whole has left a strong impression in the mind of every girl. Freshman week, with its varied program of activity, presented us with a preview of the college life which was to follow. The swift panorama of new locale and new friends was given purpose by several events. We sensed for the first time the unique charm of social life at Wellesley as we were received on the lawn behind Tower Court at the Christian Association tea given for us that first week. Another, and completely different realization was aroused in us by our first chapel service. That evening the individual challenge of college to each student was put forth by the words of the speaker which crystallized ideas which had formerly been rather vague in all of us. Sense of unity as a class arrived the morning we were greeted bv our new President and by the President of College Government. Soon we learned that college has not only social and academic aspects, but also tremendous possibilities for spiritual en- richment. One Sunday evening as we walked home from chapel, hundreds of small candles glittering across the campus as far as one could see, symbolized the inspiration of the prayer and music recently left behind us. Upperclassmen arrived the following week. Dinner with our big sisters, a vaude- ville program at Alumnae, and we first recognized Wellesley as an endless procession of classes which come and go, each class filling the steps of its predecessor as the new year begins. Hazing Day and class elections were soon a thing of the past and classes changed from first confusion to ordered routine. Our loyalty took root and grew — nutured by the fall step singing; with the freshman serenade we became yet more aware that we were a part of Wellesley. Thus our freshman year, significant and without parallel in our own lives, fol- lowed, to a great extent, the pattern of freshman years which preceded ours, and those which will follow. But we lay claim to one privilege which few classes before us have had. Last fall we marched in the long academic procession, broke ranks, and saw a new Wellesley president pass before us on the way to her inauguration. We knew that here was Wellesley history being made before us — and we were thankful that we had arrived at Wellesley in time to partake of it. « « « « « « « « « « « « « « « « « « « « « « « « « « « « « I ' lineleen Xylunarea Z-o C v_J C J i- c t. ana L ntrix; cJeven [ 142 ] 1940 Officers Helen Elizabeth Bryson President Peggy VanWagenen Vice President Rebecca Jackson Corresponding Secretary Elizabeth Gregory Recording Secretary Margery Jones Treasurer June Bowman ] Margaret Hudson Executive Cojumittee Elizabeth VanWie J Elizabeth Devereux 1 ,, , T- • bactotums Myra Ann Graff J Miss Frances L.

However, the basic ideal of the responsibility of each student is an ever present underlying principle which is respected by all members. Ours is an honor svstem and as part of the privileged group of Wellesley we realize that each one of us must observe and respect the rights of others. The members of College Government include the student body and representa- tives of the faculty and administrative board. It has been found immensely valuable to have on the governing body, the Senate, members whose experience with College problems extends over a longer period of time than just four years. To further strength- en the governing body the student officers of Senate keep in constant touch with the student body and are open to constructive criticism. The Senate makes laws and the courts enforce them. An effort has been made this year to emphasize the spirit of the regulations rather than the letter. We feel that College Government had advanced our liberties greatly by placing an increasing amount of responsibility on the indi- vidual and we are eager for this movement to continue. College Government not only deals with problems within Wellesley but it also has contact with outside colleges and organizations. In the Spring of 1936 the newly elected officers of College Government, along with the retiring officers, attended a conference of the Five Colleges at Mount Holyoke. By discussing problems peculiar to each college many suggestions were made which helped to further an understanding of College Government problems. This year the Five College Conference is to be held at Wellesley. Other outside contacts are made through the American Students ' Union and the National Student Federation of America. We feel that Wellesley has much to offer and to gain from these organizations. College Government supports the ideal of Non ministrari, sed ministrare, and the officers of 1937 are convinced that this ideal is preserved in the hearts of those who shall follow them. « « « « « « « « « « « « « « « « « « « « « « « « « « « « « « f lineieen ifyluucirea -o C V_J G J L CVT. and i mriv C2 even [ 148 ] College Qovernment Ojficers Nancy Jane Miller, 1937 .

And 1937 prepares to take its place among the Barnswallow Immortals after a welcome by the Barn Reception Play of 1933, Millay ' s T je Princess Marries the Page. But 1937 spends little time in watching others act, and soon takes its first totter- ing steps on the boards in two of the Fall Informal plays of 1933- Five toddlers appeared in ' Op o Me Tlnonb, — Thelma Schnee, Barbara Rode, Ruth Gordon, Marv Lou Bartlett, and Harriet Margolis. One of our best toddlers, Dorothy Grimes took a part in Ojfice in the In- formals. Making up for the time lost because of the rule that no youngsters are allowed in Fall Formals, two of 1937 ' s tots took their first steps in the Spring Event Play, Holiday, by Philip Barry. These were Imogene Groeschel and Jeanne Miles. And still making up for that precious lost time came Dorothy Fagg, Dorothy Grimes again, and Ethel Kemmerer in the June Play, Dear Brutus. It is one of the mysteries of the senior class how Ethel, as the lovable little Lob, disappeared out of the chair on the stage just before the final curtain. By the fall of ' 34, 1937 had really learned to walk, but as yet the speech processes weren ' t so well developed. Harriet J. Woodbury and Nancy C.

By the time Fall Informals had rolled around the youngsters -were able to speak a few simple words, and Dorothy Pickett appeared as She in Milne ' s The Artist, and Barbara Lieberman as The Official in Galsworthy ' s The Little Man. The scores of robotesses rushing around in the Fall Formals play, Capek ' s R.U.R., gave 1937 a chance really to shine. Mar- garet MacCallum, Carol Christie, Mary Ann Dilley, Beulah Levin, Mariatta Tower, Helen Wegman, Lillian Young, and Lucile Lesch, all thronged the stage adding to the general effect of blueness, oddness, and futurism. Audrey Bill also appeared in this play, taking the part of Nana, the old nurse. By Spring Event of 1935, 1937 could not onlv talk, but also could sins, and quite, quite divinely, as testified by the fact that Carol Parker had the lead in the Gilbert and Sullivan operetta. Princess Ida. Other major parts were taken by Betty Chapin, Ann Edwards, and Bar- bara Lieberman. The choruses included H. J. Woodbury, Eleanor Crosby, Mary Simpson, Sidney Rectanus, Dorothy Russ, Jane Weissinger, Jane Dahl, Betty Wake- field, Mary Luqueer, Harriet Badenoch, Robbie Lou Schneider, Sue Willard, and Nancy C. Uebelmesser. When June Play of 1935 rolled around, 1937 was even old enough to have sec- onds. Two former June Players, Dor- othy Grimes and Ethel Kemmerer, had roles in St. John Ervine ' s Mary, Mary Quite Contrary.       :       ■    .         Qlineieen Qfunclred L. 8 Q 8 S ( T) C i and Cliu-ip ofe [157] even More familiar faces appeared in the Reception Play of 1935, The Silver Hilt. These, which suddenly appeared now cjuite grown up, belonged to Dororhv Pickett, Mary Ann Dilley, Jane Dahl, and Wilhelmina Schuerman. Fall Informals demonstrated the fact that by now 1937 was old enough to take quite responsible positions. Ruth Dattner appeared in The Faraway Princess, Dor- othy Grimes and Kate Supplee in Bird in Hand, and Audrey Bill, Ethel Kemmerer, Edith Johnson, Ann Edwards, and Helen Wegman in Kiders to the Sea. Only one person, Dorothy Pickett, up- held the honor of 1937 in the Fall For- mals of 1935, Ibsen ' s Doll ' s House, but quality was supplied where quantity was lacking. By Spring Event of 1936, the emotional side of 1937 was reaching maturity. In that play, Rachel Crother ' s Let Us Be Gay, Jeanne Miles took the lead, quite in the old Norma Shearer fashion, and Ethel Kemmerer played the part of Per- kins, the maid. But 1937 ' s intellectual side wasn ' t lagging far behind, and a good thing that was, for after all, 1937 was attending Wellesley. In June Play of 1936 ir had two of Moliere ' s Learned Ladies, — Ruth Datt- ner and Edna Simon, and Ethel Kem- merer, Mary Jane Holub, and Audrey Bill in the same plav demonstrated their intellectual and their acting abilities. We were rather expecting that 1937 had grown up by this fall, but we were delighted to see that it still had a little of PIERROT MEETS HIMSELF— 1936 « « « « « « « « « « « « « « « « « « « « « « « « « ■yiineieen Qfundred L 8 Q 8 ' JHJD c54l and iZliirix} cfe [158] even RAIN FROM HEAVEN— 1936 the whimsv in ic, when Sidnev Rectanus and Ruth Dattner took the parts of Harlequin and Columbine in the Recep- tion Plav, Pierrot Meets Himself. 1937 contributed no actresses to Fall Informals this year, but produced its first little flock of directing Barnswallows — Ethel Kemmerer, Barbara Lieberman, and Nancy C. Uebelmesser. At last 1937 displayed its recently acquired sophistication and maturity in the Fall Formals play of this year, — Behrman ' s Rain from Heaven, in which Ruth Dattner and Audrey Bill appeared. 1937 has reached maturity. The end is drawing near. But we never say die! Places! Lights! Camera! Action!

Its reason for being is pri- marily to sing in week-day and Sunday Chapel services, but outside concerts with other colleges are a major part of the yearly program. There vvas Princess Ida, an operetta given with Harvard and Tech, during sophomore year. As juniors we sang with Princeton to a New York audience in the Waldorf ballroom. In those two years, the concert with Harvard was put in the regu- lar College series to take its place with such artists as Lily Pons and Fritz Kriesler. In the concert which was given with the Princeton Choir this year in Princeton, the Choir attained the highest point yet achieved in its musical development, for the program was Bach ' s great Magnificat, which was later done with Harvard in the Wellesley Chapel. Further, this year, the Choir reached a wide audience in a half-hour nation-wide radio broadcast. In addition to songs and arrangements especially dedicated to Mr. Greene and the Choir by the American composer, Mr. Robert Delaney, many of Mr. Greene ' s own arrangements of the works of the great masters have been sung. This year marks the beginning of a Wellesley scries of published arrangements. : « « « « « « « « « « « « « « « « « « « « « « « « « « « « « Qfineieen Gfundred L. 8 Q 8 ' iMjD c54 and Ckirfy cJex [160] van IJlJellesley College Choir Edward Barry Greene Carolyn W.

His arrange- ments of a great deal of this music have appeared on various programs of the Orches- tra. On December 2 in the Chapel the Orchestra presented a program which included a Wedding Cantata by J. S. Bach never before performed in this country, and two instrumental pieces written by King Henry VIIL This concert was repeated in a coast- to-coast broadcast over N.B.C. on December 8, and by special invitation of the Har- vard Music Department in Paine Hall, Cambridge, on March 3. As its principal project of the year the Orchestra co-operated with the Dance Group and Theatre Workshop to produce the Ballet-pantomime Don Juan by C. W. Gluck on March 20 in Alumnae Hall. The Ballet was first performed in Vienna in 1761. Wellesley had the honor of giving the first American performance. In the last four years the Orchestra has shown steady improvement in tone, inton- ation, and interpretation. That it is becoming increasingly important as a campus organization is evident in the keen interest of the student-body, the Faculty, and the Alumnae in all its activities. « « « « « « « « « « « « « : « « « « « « « « « « « « « « V.

We see the Pirates of Penzance, the sailors of H. M. S. Pinafore, and Gondoliers sail across the calm lake. The Sorceress lolanthe and Ruddigore follow adding a mysterious and fantastic atmosphere to the starry night. Float Night means days of planning, sawing, painting, and sewing along with hours of searching the sky hopefully for propitious signs of clear weather. Into the spotlight quietly slips a brilliant scene colored in red and gold; the music plays a sprightly tune and to the people on shore the pageant seems to be alive. Then as silently as it appeared the picture floats away again into the deep night, and all is still except for the lapping of the waves on the sandy shore.

As the story opens the Charity Children pause in the city square to admire the golden statue of the Happy Prince on its tall white pedestal. But the practical Mathematical Master does not approve of day-dreams and sends them home. On the outskirts of the city a little Swallow vainly tries to persuade his ladv-love, a beautiful Reed, to fly away with him to Egypt, now that autumn is coming. But she is much attached to her river home. Besides, she is a coquette and flirts with the Wind, making graceful curtseys whenever he appears. So the Swallow, journeying alone, stops for the night at the feet of the Happy Prince. He is awakened by a large drop of water, and he finds that the Prince is crying because of the ugliness and misery in the city. The Swallow postpones his trip to Egypt and the next day acts as messenger for his host. He carries the ruby from the Prince ' s sword hilt to a little Match Girl. He distributes the gold leaf from the Prince ' s tunic, first to the weary Seamstresses who now can repulse Disease and finish the costumes for the court ball, and then to the Poor Children, who now can play with the Rich Children ' s large silver ball. The next day, although there is a carnival in the Square, the Swallow lies dead at the foot of the shabby statue. The Mayor and his Councilmen order Workmen to carry it away, meanwhile arguing about w ho among themselves will take its place. Bring me the two most precious things in the city, said God to an Angel — the Tree Day Mistress. And she brought Him the Swallow and the Happy Prince.

We started freshman year with good signs of a healthy and athlet- ically minded class fresh from the hockey fields and basketball courts of prep and high schools. After successfully surviving the heart murmurs and flat feet of the physical examination and the hurdles and ball catch of the motor test, we went into the fall season with flying colors. We played and worked through it, finally coming out on top in fall Field Day, besides placing on the honorary varsity teams. Ribs Hubbard made the varsity in basketball, Nancy Jane Miller, Alice Wilson, and Wolffie in hockey, and Mary Alden and Helen Pfeifer in volleyball. The winter season found us immersed in the elements of modern dancing, gym- nastics, tap and folk dancing, and fencing. Again -we took honors as monkeys in the apparatus work and as basketball players. In the spring as freshmen we were again victorious at Field Day. Mary Redman made the varsity in tennis. Marguerite Crolius in archery, Bobbie Smith in lacrosse, and Haywood and Virginia Sargent in baseball. We -were modestly proud of our suc- cessful freshman year. But the crewites tell a different story so let us leave it there. Sophomore year showed that we could still make varsities, although the winning of Field Days was a thing of the past. Junior year found us participating in voluntary sports with several good teams although not highly successful ones. At the indoor Demonstration Bobbie Smith was awarded her junior blazer. As seniors, studies and social life absorbed our spare moments but we still re- tained a trace of the monkey spirit. At fall Field Day, Nancy Jane Miller and Bobbie Smith were on the honorary hockey varsity and Eunie Usher was a sub; in basketball, Nancy Jane, Phinney, and Bobbie made the varsity. In the winter of our senior year we were looking forward to the month of June with varied feelings, but some of us spent a few hours tap dancing, playing basketball, or preparing for Don Juan. The Athletic Association itself boasts some happy achievements in our time. The swimming pool fund has grown as the result of the sale of crew hats and the win- ter carnival dance. The undergraduate swimming pool committee under Phinney ' s guidance made a drive throughout the college, striving to make the dream of the swimming pool and recreation building a reality. On the Saturday before Fall Field Day an exhibition hockey game was played between the Boston Hockey Club and Wellesley in which we held them to a two-to- two tie. On Field Day the Boston Irish Hockey team honored us by playing on our field. In celebration of Sports Day, May first, tennis and golf players, archers and riders from other colleges visited us for the day. Throughout our college generation ' 37 has been active in A. A. winning and los- ing her share but always playing for the fun of the sport. « « « « « « « « « « « « « « « « « « « « « « « « « « « « « « JUneieen z iunarea i-o C vj C J i-J c and K hiriv C2Jeven [178] Beatrice Weaver (Archery Head of Sport VARSITY TEAM, FALL OF 1936 Charlotte Damron, 1940 Rae Gilman, 1938 Dorothy Harris, 1939 SUBSTITUTES Antoinette Meyer, 1940 Beatrice Weaver, 1938 Carol Montgomery, 1939 1937 CLASS TEAM, FALL OF 1936 Nelliana Best Marjorie Grove                               l ' itneieen tjlundred -j C VJ C J i- Cxi and L htrii; Cyeven [ 179 ] basketball Maria eta Tower Head of Sport VARSITY TEAM, FALL OF 1936 Elizabeth Kineke, 1938 Nancy Jane Miller, 1937 Barbara Phinney, 1937 Barbara Smith, 1937 Dora Walton, 1938 Gwendolyn Wilder, 1938 SUBSTITUTES Mary Hamilton, 1938 Catherine Meenan, 1940 1937 CLASS TEAM, FALL OF 1936 Alice Bazley Sarah Lee Kibbey Nancy Jane Miller Barbara Phinney Barbara Smith Mariatta Tower « « « « « « « « « « « « « « « « « « « « « « « « « « « « « « (tlineleen GfurJrecl L8Q8 ?ifD £A and luriv Ja: [ 180 ] even e rew Ruth Winsor Head of Sport VARSITY CREW, SPRING OF 1936 Margaret Breen, 1938 Jean Brownell, 1936 Mildred Burnes, 1936 Lucille Lesch, 1937 Caroline Neill, 1936 Muriel Millar, 1936 Harriett Olzendam, 1936 Elizabeth Turner, 1938 Frances Brown Harriet Frank Lucille Lesch Beulah Levin Louise Yawger, 1936 1937 CREW, SPRING OF 1936 Mary Luqueer Elizabeth MacHaffie Lois McKechnie Ruth Winsor Elizabeth Woosnam                      _         tUneieen Olundred i j C V_J C J i- CxT. ana ( liiiHp CjJeven [ 181 ] ■Beulah Levin Harrier Badenocli, 1937 Alice Burron, 1937 Camilla Davis, 1939 Mary Ann Dilley, 1937 Alice-Ann Kessler, 1937 TDancing ORCHESIS Beulah Levin, 1937 Head of Sport Ruby Murdock, 1937 Marrha Parkhurst, 1939 Lucreria Pearson, 1937 Wilhelmina Schuerman, 1937 Margarer Wycoff, 1939 JUNIOR DANCE GROUP Florence Brooks, 1940 Martha Kahle, 1939 Lucille Lesch, 1937 Rhea Ornstein, 1940 Elizabeth Parsons, 1939 Leonore Perlstein, 1938 Patricia Ranev, 1937 Mary Redman, 1937 Constance St. On e, 1940 « « « « « « « « « « « « « « « (nineteen GfunJreJ L8Q8 ' iNjV c5A and Tlnriy cJe. « « « « « «_« « « « « « « « « even 182 fencing TEAM Ruth Coleman, 1939 Helen Park, 1939 Elizabeth Thoro ood, 1939              :               ■j- i — ■' ' ' -■' .v L _ f ' • ' ' .

Lake Waban belongs to canoeists and skaters. The path around it beckons hikers. Severance and Observatory Hills attract skiers and tobogganers. Winding roads appeal to bicyclists, and bridle paths to horseback riders. Near Ashland the Cabin is a retreat where delicious meals are cooked in an outdoor fireplace. Further entertainment consists of a Barn Dance in the fall for Freshmen and Transfers. Also, the Snow and Ice Carnivals are the high spots of the winter season — if Saint Peter condescends to give us the proper v eather! Whatever the season or the sport, the W. O.

Dr. Henry Pitt Van Dusen from Union Theological Seminary in New York led the Religious Forum this year taking for the subject The Relevance of Religion. A faculty panel discussion opened the way for student questions, and afternoon meetings were held in chapel at which times Dr. Van Dusen spoke. He conferred with students daily in the Christian Association lounge. On Sunday he preached in chapel and in the evening closed Religious Forum with an informal discussion meeting in Tau Zeta Epsilon Society House. Another series of informal meetings was held with Dr. Leslie Glenn as leader and with the Bible Department aiding as sponsors. At vesper services Dr. Boynton Merrill and Dr. Arthur Lee Kinsolving have spoken. In the fall the Ism series of talks fostered arguments and questions on Communism, Socialism and Capitalism and their respective relationship to Christianity. The Christian Association joined with Forum and The American Student Union in a program at which Miss McAfee spoke on Edu- cation for Peace. During Freshman week the Christian Association appointed big sisters for all freshmen. The tea on Tower Court green, dormitory buffet suppers and the vaudeville performance all were an attempt to acquaint the freshmen with upper classmen and the faculty. Ask-Mes were stationed at special places on campus and acted as guides for freshmen and visitors. At the freshmen vesper service Miss Thompson spoke to the class of 1940. In the field of social service the Christian Association has been sending thirty girls each week to Boston to work in Boston City Hospital, Roxbury Neighborhood House, Travelers ' Aid Association, and other Welfare Agencies. In December the Community Service Committee gave a Christmas Bazaar in order that Welfare Agencies might sell their articles and that student agents might exhibit. The eight hundred baby dolls dressed by the students and faculty formed the special feature of the Bazaar. These were later distributed by the Christian Association to needy families in Boston. Work- ing with the Speech Department, Christian Association gave a Nativity play in the chapel. Conference work keeps the Wellesley Christian Association aware of the activ- ities of larger Christian groups such as the New England Student Christian Move- ment. Girls have attended Silver Bay and Northfield conferences and from them have gained a sense of unity with a larger group and have brought back to college stimulat- ing ideas. Since the Christian Association is a creative organization, its work changes according to the desires of individuals and groups and especially according to the present topics of Christian interest in the world to-day. Christian Association this year has spent its efforts in making religion relevant to college life, keeping in mind its purpose, We unite in the desire to realize full and creative life through a growing knowledge of God. We determine to have a part in making this life possible for all people. In the task we seek to understand Jesus and follow his principles. . „ ,. .. ., ., .. ,. -- •■■• •• •■_, --K., ' ' ' ■' I ' lineieen zftundrea i o C Vj C J i- C T and L hiriv Cl)e [192] (Christian (Association OFFICERS Eleanor H.

The Wellesley chapter of the American Student Union, chartered this year, is the newest addition to the Forum. Interested in a program centering about peace, freedom and security, it serves to unite all liberal and progressive student groups. Emphasis has been placed upon united student activity by holding open discussion and study groups and by cooperating with other organizations on the campus. An all-campus peace committee planned the Armistice Day meeting at which President McAfee spoke. This committee and College Government united in the nation-wide peace demonstration on April 22nd. Intercollegiate activities center about the Model League of Nations, which met at Harvard and Radcliffe, and the Model Senate, to which Princeton was host. In a college which takes its place in the community, such activities help to fill the increasing need of the students to prepare themselves for a role of practical idealism in public affairs.                      _         l Itneieen cjtuncired i-o C vj C J i- C- and C-Zju ' j; CjJeven [195] Cluhs cSilliance rancaise Charlotte L, Paul, 1937 President Caroline B.

Thank heavens, the sun — may- be I can wear that light suit after all! Two minutes be- fore breakfast, well, I ' ve done it before. Bet thev have toast again. Nope, I smell muffins and can that be marm- alade? Hope those kids don ' t think I ' m crabby, but I ' ve got to hurry — there ' s always so much to get done before a week-end. To an 8;40; Just my luck to have an 8:40 on Fridays! Let ' s see, where can I get some blue shoes in a hurry to go with that suit? — Ooooooooh! I forgot that formal hasn ' t been cleaned! Can I possibly find one snaky enough to startle the stag line on such short notice? Libe: Wish I could get this Lit. done. Guess I can do some of it on the train. Wish I hadn ' t washed my hair last night. It ' s a mess. Wonder if I can have it set? Some new way would be fun for a change. With all this stuff to do it ' ll be a miracle if I make that train. Lunch: Excuse the boarding house reach, kids, but I ' ve got an appointment in ten minutes. 4:30: Am I tired! But at least everything is done. Oh look! Weren ' t the girls sweet to send me this bouton- niere. Just the right colors to brighten up this suit. Must pack this stuff! What a life! Houseparty week-ends raise more questions than an Ec quiz. But don ' t despair, fair ladies. They can be answered. Where?
