' s wear their tassels on the left? What do you suppose the scarlet collars stand for? To us as blue-capped figures elbowing for room in the freshman transept, the Wellesley faculty looked impressive and remote. Tales we had heard about ogres who doled out assignments and D s with equal frequency seemed to be substantiated by the formality of Academic Procession. Later, as upperclassmen, we saw the other half of the picture. In Mock Academic Council and Faculty Show we laughed to discover that the faculty are human. Our final estimation was one of neither awe nor ridicule, but of warm-hearted re- spect. In classes and conferences we probed the seemingly bottomless depths of our profes- sors ' knowledge. We invited them to the Dorms on Wednesday nights, lunched with them at the Well, and visited their homes for after-dinner coffee, on all occasions discovering them to be not only admirable for their attainments but likeable as well. In four years at Wellesley we have come to give an A rating to our faculty, who are the central influence on our college lives. Department Chairmen, Group •• Mr. La Rue, Sra.

Starting at an assembly early Friday and continuing through Freshman Vaudeville Saturday night, bewildered newcomers watch while heads of organizations go through strange contortions of mind and body trying to attract new members to their activities. As feet grow weary, waistlines stretch, and ears ring, we feel that it is almost more than we can take. But after the first spurt of activity has died away, we settle down to two or three (well, maybe four) of the most interesting organizations. First impressions leave their mark, however, and the thing we never get over is that initial impression of the ver- satility of Wellesley.

The change is not one in name alone but in form and substance as well. The new organization with faculty, administration, and student representatives on its Executive Board and committees, is all-college in scope and places its main emphasis on wor- ship, study, and discussion. It has assumed the responsi- bility for chapel services and has transferred its social service activities to Service Organization. This latter change results from the conviction that religious ideals and values need not be limited in iheir expression to social services but should be applied in every kind of activity. K • •- . in the world 21 c PEL The Chapel Board Senior Chapel Panel discussion Chapel sponsors speakers, discussions, and study groups, which seek to stimulate thinking on religion and related topics with vital implications for living in the world today. The chief stress, however, falls on wor ship; and, appro- priately enough, the chapel building houses the offices and library space for the new organization. Chapel was formally established on the Wellesley campus at Candlelight Ves- pers. The installation of the officers and board members and the signing of the constitution were followed by the traditional lighting of the candles. Chapel endeavors to provide for the expression of the religious life of all groups within the college community while at the same time pre- serving the Christian heritage which has been central to Wellesley College since the time of its founding. 25 One world, purl one The Forum Board F O R U M Presidential elections resulted in a busy fall program for the Wellesley College Forum. Straddling the political fence, it harbored under its wing both the Democratic and Republican campus organizations, hanging donkeys and elephants with equal fervor. It sponsored an all-college political rally and a mock election, in which Wellesley cast its presidential vote. After ballot-box time Forum continued to provide a non-partisan outlet for student discussion. Religion and Politics was the subject of the joint C.A. — Forum Conference in November, and Women in Politics headed the spring program. Debate Group ' s activities included verbal battles with Yale and Harvard. Current Events, World Federalists, and Polit- ical Action helped to prove that Wellesley is no ivory tower but rather intensely aware of current national and international problems. II ellesley did, hm Dewey didn ' t! . . ttrul tome of us voted for Thurmond 26 Doum Payment Wellesley gave thanks by giving beyond its quota dur- ing Service Organization ' s annual drive for funds. This drive is one of S.O. ' s most important functions; for it coordinates the requests of all recognized relief agencies on campus. An outgrowth of the combination of the old Service Fund with the social service functions of C.A., Service Organization donates its money to the Red Cross, educational agencies, and other worthy charitable insti- tutions. Members contribute their time not only by dress- ing dolls for Christmas Bazaar but by working all year long in hospitals, settlement houses, weekend work camps, and by reading to the blind. S.O. emphasizes relations with foreign students by sending CARE packages to Europe and, this year, a goat to Japan. Through these means Service Organization hopes to build its Bridge to Friend- ship.

It ' s not only fun to forget those paper blues in the sole effort of keeping your eye on the ball in one of the many sports from golf to ping-pong, but it is good sense as well. Whether you like to ride, climb moun- tains, swim, or merely paddle a canoe, A.A. provides the means and the instruction. A.A. is not only interested in limbering up the brain- wearv but in promoting real skill and friendly competition among individuals, dormitories, and classes through its series of tournaments. One of the best -known rivalries is the crew competition, which encourages its participants to stroke with their hardest and best form for the glory of house or ear. The class crew race and the forming of the W are an important part of Float Night traditions. In the fall A.A. plays host to several Eastern Women ' s hockey teams, and in the spring it organizes a student -faculty baseball game. Basketball, squash, and fencing are other outlets for the skill and energy of Wellesley ' s athletically inclined, the best of whom are recognized at the annual spring Field Day celebration with the presentation of W ' s and blazers.

Its members must show 7 not only speed to win races and endur- ance to last out a marathon but also grace: for in the spring Swim Parade they find a chance to rival the Aqua- cade. One of the best-known branches of A. A. is the Outing Club. This group sponsors activities from hikes in the White Mountains to sailing off the North Shore. In the winter it organizes ski trips for those who wish to skim down snowy slopes or dent a few ribs. Vil freshmen may take a busman ' s holiday by bicycling to Lexington or Concord. Even those who are not particularly athletically inclined may enjoy the square dances with Harvard and M.I.T. Besides its own special activities A. A. also contributes much to the general activities of the college, providing us with most of the entertainment during Winter Carousel weekend. Everyone may participate as a spectator in its athletic events. But more than this, every Welleslev girl is willy-nilly a walking member of A. A. The A. A. Board Go ahead and say it, Jess Up and Over 29 Ina Aronsdn, President Dance Group Abandon yourself! is the cry of the modern dancer. Relax, get that lighter-than-air feeling! This is the aim of Wellesley ' s potential Martha Grahams, who let them- selves go once a week in the ballroom of Alum. To be limber of limb and graceful of form is uppermost in their thoughts. However, the group stresses choreography as well as dancing, practicing the techniques of different schools, trying out small-group choreography, and inviting guest speakers to lecture and demonstrate various kinds of dances. Its achievements along these lines find expres- sion in a program presented to the college in the winter as well as in its traditional Tree Day pageant in the spring. Practice makes perfect The II I. liwml WE We Magazine had its face lifted in 1949. From cover to contents it felt the influence of its editors ' new policy of choice and change. The old conservative jacket was re- placed by a livelier cartoon cover, and the material inside was expanded in size and quality. Aiming to include as much student talent as possible, We concentrated not only on short stories, poetry, and essays, but on more unusual forms and subjects, emphasizing a literary tone instead of the collegiate humor of other years. A new feature this year was the inclusion of material from other college mag- azines. As a result of this new policy, We s circulation topped all figures since its (irsl appearance six years ago. ' ll.e III 30 Choir Joyful, joyful, we adore thee! ' Familiar words, these, to the one hundred and eighty members of Choir, who form the mainstay of Chapel services. At times it is a close race to get in line bv 8:05 in the morning, and often mem- bers wish they did not have to sing on Sundays. However, despite these minor trials. Choir holds an important place in Wellesley traditions. Besides its regular services, it performed this year at Fall Vespers, Christmas time, a Spring Concert with Brown, and Baccalaureate Services in June. In addition members traveled to Williamstown and Providence, giving the purple cow and the bruins, as well as Wellesley, a chance to voice their approval. The Choir Officers PLEASE look up! The Orchestra Officers Orchestra From Mozart to the Arkansas Traveler the Wellesley College Orchestra plays it very well. Again this year it showed that the campus can produce some talented musical teamwork. Although without fair Harvard, its traditional partner for the big fall and spring concerts, Orchestra proved to be as versatile as ever by inviting the M.I.T. orchestra to provide the necessary brass. Furthermore, Orchestra is really a joint faculty-student enterprize, for its bi-weekly rehearsals this year were enlivened by the presence of Miss Mowry and Mr. Proctor, who joined the ranks as violinist and cellist respectively. N.B. Who says who ' s wrong when the string section makes a mistake.

Whether she is a would-be actress, carpenter, lighting technician, stage manager, or business woman, every stage-struck girl can find a place in Barn ' s organization. This year ' s productions ran the gamut of styles from Greek tragedy to one of George Bernard Shaw ' s inimitable satires. Barn opened its season with Engaged, a drawing-room farce by W. S. Gilbert. The winter program was a double bill, presenting to the college Sophocles ' Antigone and Shaw ' s Dark Lady of the Sonnets, while the spring brought forth Berkely Square by John Balderston. Barn not only offered these three major oppor- tunities to parade before the footlights but also gave its actresses a chance to perform in the Theater Workshop presentations of one-act plays. This year the new Drama Study Committee was formed to give those interested in acting and directing a chance to work out their own pro- ductions. Even though one member spent the year sub- merged in prompters ' books, another in scenery props, and a third maneuvering the spots, all Barn members agree on one thing — there ' s nothing like the theater! Engaged swallows 33 Press Board Please Jill out and return immediate! In an institution whose main purpose is to keep the world before the eyes of Wellesley. Press Board occupies a unique position: that of trying to keep Welleslev before the eyes of the world. This year, in recognition of the im- portance of its position, Press Board has been made a major organization. It has the job of getting the details on students ' activities and writing them up for home-town newspapers. In addition, Press Board helps publicize the Seventy-fifth campaign. Perhaps the reason that the group is not too well known is that it is always too busy gathering publicity for others to spread its own fame. The Press Board Officers The Players One foot in Heai en si Guild of Carilloneurs To most of us the Guild of Carilloneurs is a name at once familiar and remote, for its work is carried on high in the tower of Green Hall — far from the madding crowd. The group braves frost) temperatures, early hours (especially on Sunday), and the long, dark climb to the hells on winter evenings, so that the rest of the college may enjoy the famous set of hells which were the gilt of Hettj Green. Mow often going up Christmas Tree Alley as freshmen were we struck by the evanescent beauty of the hells in the distance. It is the unseen members of the Guild who bring us this privilege, one often taken for granted because it is -d much ;i pari of Wellesley. Art Club Modern Art % X This is a mobile To the unaesthetic, those things hanging in the Art Library last fall were merely pieces of wire and paper, but to the members of Art Club who made them, Mobiles are a thing of beauty. Starting last year as a sketching group. Art Club has expanded its activities to experimenting with new and less traditional forms of art. Its members, moved bv the creative muse, find through it a chance to try means of expression not included in class labs. Life-sketching, ceramics, and finger-painting, as well as the more con- ventional trips to museums and modern houses, are all included in Art Club ' s program. It ellesley on the wing Look! Up in the sky! It ' s a bird — it ' s a cloud — it ' s Flying Club! Wellesley ' s aviatresses take to the air from Nor- folk, Mass. where they learn the finer points of aerial techniques. However, most of Flying Club ' s members have not yet sprouted wings. At ground school, which they attend with the Babson group, they study navigation, meteorology, civil air rules, and theory of flight. They are active in the Association of Northeastern College Flying Clubs, taking part in intercollegiate meets and breakfast flights. At this rate the sign-out sheet of the future will read Florida and back before one o ' clock.

Where ' s the copy on Winter Carousel? . . . oh, there goes the telephone. Somebody please answer it. We ' ve got to have this ready to take to press tonight! Amid con- fusion and noise, but with an amazing amount of purpose- ful action, editors, reporters, and business staff pound through the material that keeps students in touch with faculty, faculty close to students, and both aware of activities inside and outside of the college. News reports, edits, comments, and criticizes. More so than any other publication, it reaches all students, keeping them alive to important issues. It attempts to handle everything from janitors to Truman; Junior Show to Medieval Symposiums. It tries to be dignified, while retaining a readable sense of humor. It chooses its reporters every fall and spring through competitive try-outs. The business staff too has a try-out period, and the editors are elected by the staff. Tribute to its popularity is the cry heard around campus on Thursdays: Where ' s my News? N E Absolutely everybody reads NEWS Dirty II • . 36 w Nose for Neil ' s The NEWS Board Pounding it out 37 Tupelo Tess ou name it, we ' ve got it Bringing a displaced person to Wellesley was the aim of this year ' s campus fund-raisers. Together with N.S.A., the student branch of the Seventy-fifth Anniversary Fund sponsored the adoption of a European schoolgirl, guaran- teeing her a four-year scholarship plus a permanent future in America. This specific goal fits into the purposes of the 75th as a whole, which plans to spend $7,5 00,000 on new buildings, salaries, and scholarships. Although previously no part of the students ' quota had been specifically al- located, it seemed fitting for present Wellesleyites to add to scholarship funds. To raise money for their project, 75th canvassers snared the profits of Junior Show and partici- pated in S.O. Bazaar. They suggested the donation of Hathaway House rebates, sold plaving cards and records, and climaxed their campaign with a big spring drive. The student branch also supervised the christening of Tupelo Tess, the Wellesley doll whose name was chosen by means of a campus contest. The 75th is organized with House Reps in every dorm and a student head chosen through the Major Officers ' Election. Wellesley Anniversary Fund Yankee Tradei 33 Husinexs ns iisntil Radio Stand by! W.B.S. is on the air! Every day energetic directors, program planners, script writers, and technicians bring to the campus a variety of programs from Beethoven ' s Seventh or Boogie Woogie to a word-by-word transcription of Mrs. Morton ' s latest address, via W.B.S. ' s own gadget, the wire recorder. Newly equipped to transmit programs to Simp- son, Eliot, and Noanett, W.B.S. this vear concentrated on developing its feature shows. To put across good drama, novels, and musical programs, it exploited the campus for new and undeveloped talent. It marked the growth of outside features by participating in programs with Harvard, Yale, and other schools. The best of W.B.S. ' s efforts were sent via recordings to Boston and New York for wider distribution. Besides these features, W.B.S. this vear continued its popular standbys, serving those who wondered what ' s what in Boston, were curious about campus news, or were too lazy to plow through the mobs at the Index Board. Its Music for Studying was a must program for most students. From eight in the morning till eleven at night W.B.S. offered ample opportunities to hams and listeners alike, giving Radio the highest Hooper rating on campus.

We worked at them, stav- ing up all night to do some odd job passed down to us by the higher-ups. The head of our organization seemed to us to be predestined for her job, a paragon of efficiency who could do no wrong. Junior year we began to make decisions, run our own departments, and write out assign- ments for others.

We were to be the major officers — we or our roommates — ordinary human beings whose foibles we knew only too well. We chose them, how- ever, and were amazed that our officers, despite their mis- takes, somehow seemed competent to handle their jobs. And, big wheels or no, we found that we could still stay up uights doing the busy work we thought we had left behind us freshman year. Curtain going up The Old Look 43 COLLEGE GO Nancy Evans, PRESIDENT Judith U olpert, CHIEF Jl STICE The Gray Book is a freshman ' s first introduction to the Wellesley College Government, better known as C.G. This book, the bible of the student body, sets forth the honor basis plus all the do ' s and don ' ts of the college community. In the spring Wellesley elects its C.G. officers: a president to coordinate its activities, Senate members to discuss and establish necessary regulations, and Court representatives to handle judicial cases. To secure responsible advice C.G. consults with a Cabinet composed of the heads of all college organizations. Village Juniors and the House Presi- dent ' s Council serve as a coordinating link between C.G. and the student body. Through this structure C.G. tries to further unity between students and administration, establish and enforce rules by democratic means, and bring about a realization of each student ' s responsibility in making C.G. a working proposition. % Rsn H VERNMENT House President ' s Council: M.

Freshman Member oi Senate (, House Meeting C.G. in action C.G. is a group about which everyone knows a little and few people verv much. Once a year we elect its officers. We read Superior Court notices on our house bulletin boards and occasionally even attend open Senate meetings on the honor svstem or a revision of rules concerning late permissions. However, most of us are completely unaware of the many daily decisions made by its standing com- mittees. When a dance is in sight, it is a committee of College Government that decides on the time and place. Education Committee meets with the faculty to discuss educational policies and holds annual department teas where sophomores learn the assets and pitfalls of their prospective majors from experienced seniors. The Social Schedule Committee has the job of sorting out the events that each organization plans and arranging them so that they won ' t all take place at the same time. C.G. also selects Vil Juniors, runs elections, and conducts those midnight fire drills. No other campus organization is as closely con- nected with the student body as C.G. and the efficient working of the entire plan is one that keeps C.G. busy from September to June. In the office 47 N. S. A. Pollcats Caucus at the Madison Congress National Students ' Association is Wellesley ' s newest and most rapidly growing baby. Adopted by the student body last spring, it is part of a national federation formed to develop good college government in all schools, educational opportunities, and international under- standing among students. The Welleslev chapter is divided into a domestic group, whose Pollcats and Data Workers conducted a research project, and an international section, whose chairman this year was also elected regional chairman of international activities. Under the direction of N.S.A. ' s chairman, the campus organizations working on European relief this year formed an International Council. This Council coordinated their activities and super- vised the all-out drive to bring a displaced person to Welleslev, making every group aware of C. G. ' s responsibility not only to Wellesley but to students all over the world. TPAYEL BUREAU N.S.A. lioanl Going uimeuihere? 48 c L A S S E S Officers of The Class of 1949 C. K. Smith, J. Danner, B.

Defying tradition, the pioneer class dared to present a program with a mcssagi — should idealism and the ivor lower he sacrificed to practicality, or can the workers of Buhhlcloon triumph over the PinmakerB? In order to put this into a presentable form, ' 49 was given two hectic weeks of preparation. With about one hundred and fifty girls in the cast, the stage of Alum often looked more like a mob scene on Forlv -second 52 Street than a play. Human croquet wickets, task- masters, and schish-kebab girls wandered around displaying their talents to wearv directors. In spite of grueling rehearsal schedules, sudden changes in plot, lighting, and costumes, ' 49 stuck to its guns. When the final week came, all were amazed to see the ravishing new look that could be acquired by the addition of a few old scarfs to a battered gym suit. Judicious brush strokes transformed the spattered backdrops into the magical setting of Bubbleloon. Luckily for the writers and actors, the invention of plastic bubbles enabled the Peasants to make and flaunt their symbol right on the stage. In no time at all Queendom Come had its opening night and then was part of the past. All that were left to us were our memories and our records. We suddenlv found that we had nothing to do, but we had for rec- ompense the fact that we had given the best Junior Show that we ever could. 53 Agora S O CI Alpha Kappa Chi I ' hi Sigma -.1 iS SI rlM E TI E S Shakespeare Tail Zeta Epsilon Zeta Alphi I ■■ I i ! !! ! 55 W ' l l l l l li l llM l lllHiHIMIih ■:-.: . ■■:■■■■■ WINTE ¥ Brr! It ' s cold! It ' s freezing! And the snow ' s so deep! But it is pretty. Just one more tug at the collar, a pair of mittens, knee boots, and we ' re ready to face it. Even though we had to leave for class a few minutes earlier, we found some compensation in skiing down Observatory Hill, skating on the cove, or even sliding involuntarily down Norumbega Hill. In spite of snow- ball fights, occasional icy blasts from Lake Waban, and the increasing difficulty encountered in finding the path to the Well, we survived it all. We opened our windows a little less widely, begged roommates to get up and turn on the heat, and threw that extra blanket over the bed. We rolled large snowmen, giving them carrots for noses; and we watched the icicles grow down from the roof of Shakespeare. We were serenaded by Harvard. M.I.T., and Wellesley sophomores, who caroled sleepily under our windows and left candy on all the seniors ' doors the day before Christinas vacation. We ate delicious plum-pudding dinners, spent money at the S.O. Bazaar and in the Vil, and finished those papers and quizzes in time to go home for a few relaxing weeks. We came back to face the problem of more winter and the problem of studying for midyears while packing for that fi RTIME trip to Stowe or North Conway. We took quite a beating from those beautiful snowy slopes, but somehow, with the aid of splints, braces, mustard plasters, and Epsom salts, we managed to play hostess at a big Winter Carousel week- end. For weeks we had been hoping that there would be enough snow to transform Wellesley into a ski resort de- luxe. Something had been planned for everyone: a torch- light parade, a skating exhibition, ski movies, a square dance, house tea dances, and supper parties. Sleigh rides and snow sculptures were expected to put the winter to its best uses. Saint Moritz had nothing on Wellesley! We danced in tbrce places at once on Saturday night and then applauded Outing Club for a wonderful time. After all this activity we dragged stiff, weary bones to 8:40 s ozi Monday and settled down to hope that, after all the winter, spring would be just around the corner. ' ..- . ■,,,-.

No skating and sleighrides for this weekend, but rather picnics and walks to Tupelo (three times?). Thanks to the concurrence of Junior Prom and May Day our festivities got off to an early start. The bravest of our dates sacrificed breakfast and a good night ' s sleep to the cause of cheering the seniors across the finish line. By nightfall 1949 was out in full force. Dinners in Tower or Severance complete with tablecloths and smoking, Vaughn Monroe and Colonel Stoopnagle broadcasting from Alum, and that extra half hour past one o ' clock made it the best Junior Prom ever. Sunday Wellesley exchanged formals for blue jeans and radiated to Lexington, Ipswich, and Duxbury. Returning at last to female seclusion on Sunday night, we surveyed the remains of the weekend: a wilted gardenia, a bunch of wonderful memories, and three hundred pairs of very sore feet. m %p fas - 63 The calm before the storm 4-J( im i§§ The general staff of life OUR LITTLE In September, 1947, by a strange and wonderful process which completely defies all laws of nature and heredity, the class of ' 49 acquired Little Sisters. Often they were six feet tall and twice as sophisticated as we. but we manfully deferred our feelings of superiority to time-hallowed tradi- tion. After two years at Wellesley, it is each junior ' s duty to pass the countless insights into college life which she has gained from her Big Sister on to the incoming fresh- men. In this way no really vital information will pass and be forgotten when the seniors leave. Actually we found the tradition of Little Sisters to be a mutually beneficial re- 1951 64 Here we sit like birth in the wilderness SISTERS Little sisters, junior style lationship which more often than not involved the sharing of food. Didn ' t we give you half of our hard-boiled egg when we first met you in Alum before Freshman Vaudeville, and a doughnut with a bite taken out of it early one morning when you had already been up for hours playing bridge on Tower Hill? And didn ' t you help to revive our holiday spirit which had all but perished beneath the load of pre-Christmas papers and quizzes with candy and carols; and get us through three centuries of English literature, or historv, or mammalian evolution with a large grape fizz and a brownie? But we should be sorry to be remembered only in a gastronomic connection. Our alliance with the class of 1951 has been a rewarding one in spite of the blind date we didn ' t get and the Bible notes we couldn ' t find the night before the quiz. The Sister traditions at Wellesley will be remembered as an integral part of the indefinable something which we call college spirit. Freshman Vaudeville, Flower Sunday, May Dav, all were more enjoyable because we shared them with our Little Sisters. We are proud of your achievements — next year you too will be Big Sisters. May you have as much fun as we have had. Officers of The Class of 1951 G. Beaverson, L. Harding, A. Frederick, R. Allen 65 Step Singing Evolu Step Singing is a tradition about which freshmen are curious and upperclassmen increasingly sentimental. From the first gathering in the fall when seniors, not yet ac- customed to their caps and gowns, march on the road from Green to Chapel to the last in the spring when forget-me- nots accompany the echo of the Alma Mater, Step Singing has many pleasant associations with the Wellesley of the past. Through songs, we recapture the original Mav Day dunking of a Bold Bad Man , look upon ourselves as tamed wild flow r ers and strange products of evolution, and learn the sad fate of alumnae who are lost, lost in the wide, wide world. Step Singing is held on Tuesday and Fridav evenings in the fall and spring, when Wellesley ' s daughters prove that they still love to sing by the old Chapel steps. H e want Airs. Horton on our steps! i . Garrett, ' . Pinamki, K. I ranklin, II. Buxhnwyer 66 May Day May Dav is Welleslev ' s combination Boston Marathon, crystal ball, and endurance test. For weeks before, seniors practice rolling hoops in hopes of being the first one married. However, in this case the race is not necessarily to the swift, but rather to the senior whose Little Sister sacrifices the most sleep to the cause of saving a place in line. To accommodate the Mrs. ' s among us, a baby carriage race has been installed; and recently the race has included a few male runners. The two Harvard men who tried it in 1946 were speedilv thrown into Lake Waban. In ' 47 rain postponed Mav Day, making Little Sisters risk catching pneumonia by trying to sit out the deluge and giving the sophs an additional two weeks to perfect their blotter formations. In ' 48 the really unexpected happened. Welles- ley had two winners of the hoop race. Yet, although some- thing occurs to make each May Day unique, the memory is always the same. Tradition has blended with the im- mediate in a way that makes May Day a part of college life that no one would part with willingly. V 1946 1947 1949 1948 67 Float Night The Friday night before Tree Day has traditionally been set aside for the colorful water pageant known as Float Night. For weeks ahead holes in canoes are patched, realistic scenery is designed, and costumes revealing the theme are made. At last all is in readiness! But, alas, there is another tradition connected with Float Night which one is likely to forget. No matter how brilliant the May weather has been, we are almost inevitably greeted on Friday morning by grey, leaden skies. By noon it is actually raining: bv dinner-time the Quad can be crossed only in a rowboat. Once again we see on the Index Board the familiar words, Float Night postponed until next year. Tree Day 4Stf . £ • M f Kor weeks Wellesley prepares for its big occasion. From after breakfast until dark dancing figures pirouette across Severance Green; weird symphonic tones drown out the sound of the carillon; electricians string wires across the lawn: and alert sophomores eye ever) sapling with suspi- cion. Then finall il conies! Tree l)a — oldest and most important of college traditions, with everyone from 92 to . 2 on hand to witness the festivities. As freshmen we (,?, Grace Gere, Tree Day Mistress Court, Ellen Fezandie, Vera Strom sted, Betty Blaisdell, Nancy Briggs were introduced to Tree Day via the story of Mowgli and Sher Khan. Sophomore year we were transported to the desert realm of Sycthian Sun. In 1948 a cast of ninety-three female Thespians and one uninvited Irish Setter trans- formed our campus into the Armenian village of Shal Gamir, depicting the story of Gayne and Giko to the music of Khatchaturian ' s Gane Ballet Suite. As usual, Pomp and Circumstance ushered in the Tree Day mistress and her court, and the ceremony of the spade was the signal for the mad dash of humanity (or at least the freshman and sophomore part of it) to 1951 ' s tree. Despite the younger age of its rivals, the sophomore class proved that decrepi- tude had not vet set in. Victorious in its scramble to the tree, it nevertheless permitted the freshmen to give their class cheer and close the day with 1-9-5-1-Wellesley, Rah!

Zimmerman 120 Acknowledgments John Donne said, No man is an island. The truth of this statement is never more impres- sive than when seen in the light of a sizeable undertaking brought to a successful conclusion. Because we realize just how much we depended upon others for the work which has made the 1949 edition of Legenda more than a vague dream, we want to say a special word of thanks to all those wonderful people who gave so generously of their time and effort. To Baker, Jones, Hausauer, Inc., who handled the entire production of the book, we are greatlv indebted, especially with regard to their verv able representative, Mr. George Hef- fernan, who answered countless questions and heard as many tales of woe, yet somehow never lost faith in us. Our thanks also go to Mrs. McKenna and the rest of the staff at BJH for their help in putting Legenda together. The photography for the book was done by Sargent Studios in Boston. Mr. Irving Green was our mainstay in this department and many times served us beyond the call of duty when deadlines loomed ahead. To the long-suffering photographers who covered the campus for us, we sav that their efforts speak for them better than words of ours. Without the cooperation of Miss Rene MacLaurin of the Publicity Office, who gave us free access to the substantial files located there, the book would have had many holes. Miss Jean Glascock, Director of Publicity, was the source of many helpful hints in the working out of our plans. Mr. A. C. Boecker took the picture of Horton House on Page 9. Bradford Bachrach supplied the portrait of Mrs. Horton on Page 10, and Bob Crosby of the Beverly Evening Times took the picture of the Flying Club members on Page 35. We are especially grateful to all the students who lent us candids, and we wish we could have found space in the book for more. Bubert ' s Photo Supplies helped us out when we needed prints in a hurry. Gherin ' s also cooperated in this respect. To the House of Pine, Inc., in Buffalo, and to Miss Edith Sprague in the Wellesley Place- ment Office, go our thanks for the permission to make a few extra dollars for Legenda by selling the Balpine products. Mr. Height and Miss Stark struggled over gloomy account books with us, and for their experienced help and advice we are most grateful. Dean Lindsay gave us a good deal of help towards a more efficient organization of Legenda, and Mrs. Twombly in the Information Bureau was, of course, a never-failing source of answers to questions simple and complex. The quotation on Page 7 was taken from Page 209 of Whitehead ' s book Adventures in Ideas, copyright 1933 bv the Macmillan Company and we are especially grateful to the Macmillian Company for the permission to use this quotation. Special recognition should be given to the Legenda reps, who canvassed the campus with subscription blanks, and to the girls who canvassed the rest of the world for advertising contracts. An efficient Publicity Committee kept the college aware that Legenda is Your JVellesley, and the Literary Committee spent many long hours working on our copy. To the Senior Class we say thank you for the vote of confidence you gave us in deciding to risk a higher price in order to receive the book we had planned out for you. We sincerely hope you and the rest of the college community will be satisfied with the results. We shall never forget the help of Teddy Looney and Carol Bonsai in explaining our jobs to us. Finally, to our matchless Board go our heartfelt thanks for the wonderful spirit which accompanied your superhuman efforts. You are a great team to work with, and you all came through just when we were wondering how to get off our island. Pete Boynton Nancy Ray 121 Legenda Board V-jc oc S i V a ce ?T [ Lx ' f4 Fc jt -J.
