Margaret Evans Mrs. S. L. Akers Sponsor wecuil czJ fitetnaticnal Wesleyan University, May 1, 2037, (International Interview). Today your inter viewer attended the dramatic celebration of the close of the bi-centennial year ol the world-famous Wesleyan University, pioneer college for women, located hn n in Macon, Georgia’s capital. In the auto-plane next to mine on Anderson field, recognized Miss Silver Smith, the very tale nted young actress of so many Theater Guild successes. She finished at Wesleyan this year, and she showed me something of the way the school is changing. “You see, my great-great-grandmother graduated here just 1(X) years ago—quite a coincidence. Before she died, the family had many Home Talkies made • her, and I feel almost as if 1 knew the quaint old lady. One of the happiest part of her life was that she spent here, and one of the pictures great-uncle caught secretly shows a conversation my great-grandmother and she were having about it. See. ' She flipped on her plane movie, and onto the dashboard screen came two charming ladies. But Mother, this wonderful class of ’37. It couldn’t have had everything. Well, we had our share anyway. And if 1 do say so we certainly ere J lucky bunch. We started off lucky. We had a swell class, and we liked each other. I can remember now just as well, trotting barefoot behind the Sophomores to m I harm, and getting lost all the time. Say what you want to against ratting, it af Inn, (specially the Rat Court. We got syrup and eggs in our hair, and e yelled at. but we had fun and anybody that says—” IV1o,her ’ l,ul remember what the doctor said.” Vi ll, anyway, I was just saying we were lucky. We won the soccer, basket- -wric i uck . we wun ui — 7 ball and swimming championships. Kept them most of the time. When we were 1 mi P , !n01 n OSl an d the swimming pennant, and the soccer « u l inner Wa champion. And we started winning such thing? a ne paper contests too.’ 28 Elliot Dunwoody, III Mascot tetview - 2037 J. “My, the junior year was fun! We won hack the things we had lost and got several others. Sarah and Birch wrote a cup-winning stunt. Grace was elected President of the Dramatic Club—as a mere Junior. We won the soccer and basketball cups, and we were feeling right versatile.” Her eyes gleamed brightly in the color film. “Remember Edward VIII, young British King, and the lovely Mrs. Simpson whom he abdicated for? Well, they were responsible for our keeping the stunt cup our Senior year. We had settled down a bit hut we still were young enough for sports. I’ll never forget that last basketball game—the Juniors came mighty near stopping our four-year record—mighty near—nor that soccer championship. “We had a good class, and our sponsor, Mrs. Akers, was a love. The Skull and Crossbones—and dear old Tri-K—could hardly have gotten along without I)r. and Mrs. Akers. “Then came the deluge of centennial celebrations. They were rather-er-colossal. But I wouldn’t have missed them for anything. We always had beautiful celebra¬ tions, we did. That last Thanksgiving banquet—” Her voice was growing misty. “It was so lovely. ‘We have come to the end of four perfect years.’ That is what we sang. 1 remember the tenor—and the toasts they gave to the Puritan maids. It was just swell, and your modern six-month term, and your travel and outside interests can never mean more to you than that did to me. Here Silver interrupted, “I’m sorry but I must leave. We fly at six for England. Great-great-grandmother was just to give you an idea. Well, so long. As her silver plane flashed toward Charleston, I thought about the difference in the Wesleyan of 100 years ago (when there was no international soccer champion and before it became the center of psychological and philosophical study) and this Wesleyan, and thought about this bright-haired child and her bright-voiced great- great-grandmother, and I wondered if underneath they weren’t a lot alike. —Special to the Veterropt by Rose Peagler. 29 A Sara Mae Anderson Seoul , Korea GRADUATE PIANO AND ORGAN Betty Alexander Macon , Georgia DRAMATIC ART All the way from Korea came Sally to study piano at Wesleyan Conservatory. When she graduated in June after breezing through four years’ work in three, she received not merely her B.M. as if that were not enough, but a scholarship in piano as well. So she returned this year as a post-grad¬ uate and has been studying piano and organ. Sally accompanied the Glee (dub last year and this year has been accompanist for the Department °f Voice as well as the Glee Club. She is always appearing in Macon on some program, either as accompanist or soloist. Sally plays the or¬ gan in a quite satisfying way, accompanies in like manner, and is a solo- ist of some note. Why, if she cares to she could be a success in any o HaV,ng ' l ‘ ab,l,| y 10 do a number of things well could be Betty’s formula for success. . lans erre( { roni Shorter her senior year.

With her talents, Betty has a future well Worth looking f° r ar 30 Better known as “Eat,” she has faithfully represented the rather “retiring” town girls in athletics during her four years at Wesleyan. She lived at Rivoli her freshman year, hut since then has enjoyed commuting. “Eat” is an¬ other athletic girl, having been on basketball team one year; swim¬ mining. three; soccer, four; a member of the “W” Club, and treasurer on Athletic Board. She was also a member of the Biblical Literature Club and Glee Club. Once “Rat ' s” great interest in Chemistry wavered, but the ship sank and Chemistry held its place. We hope your next one won’t be from a diving board like in ’36. Adieu, “Rat.” and lots of luck. Edith is the last of the famous Wesleyan Monroe family of Quincy, Florida. Despite her study of Psychology, she could never overcome her fear of horses. “Never trust a horse” was Edith’s motto, ou could always trust Edith, however, when it came to know ing everything to Ik known about History and Eco¬ nomics. In recognition of this she was president of the International Rela¬ tions Club during her senior year. Edith was also a member of Biblical Literature, German, and Home Economics Clubs, and treasurer of the sophomore class. Ratherine Alfriend Macon . Georgia A.B.

FI orida dramatic art Aimi Ruth is the kind of girl who does things quietly, but who does them. In fact she does them so quietly that we had a hard time finding out anything at all about her. Finally we discovered that she was a member of the Biblical Literature, Hiking, and Tennis Clubs, in Student Volunteers, and on Sophomore Council. Almost any day you could see Annie Ruth hiking to the Polar Bear, or to town, either for pleasure, or else to win a “W.

Her worries began her freshman year when she was elected class repre¬ sentative on council. To soothe her feeling somewhat, she was elected ° t opular that year. Carolyn gets along with people right well. She was t en elected Most Popular her sophomore year. Such popularity n .

' ' She began her career as vice-president of the freshman class and representative on Athletic Board. As a sophomore she became class president, and major sports manager in the athletic field. Then she was on the Watchloiver and Veterropt staffs her junior year. Some girl, eh what! In athletics, there’s nothing, yes nothing, “Parky” can’t do. Please note: soccer team, four years; basketball team, four years; swimming, three. “Parky” is to Athletic Board as Roosevelt is to the United States. And that Democratic smile unanimously cast her as Roosevelt in the senior stunt. She must have learned it at Warm Springs. In case you don’t know where Warm Springs is, it’s about ten miles from Greenville. Conscientious is the word for “Dottie.” When she has something to do, she does it. I his trait has brough her laurels not bestowed on some with less willingness to work. She was secretary and treasurer of the class her sophomore year. She spends most of her spare time in dramatic art. and has taken part in several plays presented at the Conservatory. She is also member Dramatic Club. Her interest in dramatics and willingness to work should make her successful. Martha Park Culpepper Greenville . Georgia A.B.

BIOLOGY Kc c eivmg an engagement ring and being president of the senior class were outstanding occurrences during Helene’s senior year. Her junior year she was an officer in the class as well as in the Glee Club. She majored in piano and was a member of the Piano Club her senior year. Helene goes in for the athletic as well as the artistic. She has l een active in basketball and soccer during her years at the Conservatory. Her life work won’t be entirely devoted to music. Her ring settles her future. lary Julia is one of our best all-round athletes. The nice thing about her is that she is consistently good. Her main love in the sports department is sotrer. She was captain of her team the freshman and sophomore years. She made her ‘W that first year, because she wa on the basketball an swimming teams too. She’s kept up the record she started, and has been on all her class teams since. But she proved her versatility by ing on the Debating Council four vears, on Freshman Commission, on cabinet as a sophomore and junior, and on Activity Council as a senior and topping that by being managing editor of the Vatchtouer 36 “Gerry” is our champion laugh-provider, with wit as sure-fire as that of Gracie Allen. We have to like her because she keeps us from joining the ranks of the complete pessimists. And we’ll have to admit she s pretty good in athletics, too, having been captain of the basketball team three years and on the soccer team as many times. Then she earned one of those awe-inspiring “W’s,” which gave her entrance into the exclusive “W” Club. To prove she could be judicial, as well as athletic, she got herself elected class representative on Honor Coun¬ cil twice and then was secretary her junior year. Her various other interests include the International Relations Club and the Home Economics Club. Miriam, like Abraham Lincoln and other famous persons striving for an education, travels five miles each day to school. (Though means of transportation are somewhat different, the principle is the same.) She is a member of that Unorganized Sisterhood of Macon Girls. Miriam has graced Wes¬ leyan’s classrooms only two years, since she transferred from Bessie I ift in 1935. In these two years she has been an upstanding member of the French Club, never yet missing a “parlez-vous Francais. Miriam has that rare gentle blonde l eauty which is so soothing, and should make an ideal wife for some famous man with an artistic temperament. Geraldine Dorsey Abbeville , Georgia A.B.

She started off easily, joining the Dramatic Club and landing on Activity Council. But by the time she was a junior, she was president of the Dramatic Club, an honor heretofore claimed only by seniors. She was on Honor Council, soccer and swimming teams, and was a commencement marshal besides. It’s no wonder that this year she heads our Y. W. C. A. Of course by now ' she’s a past grand mistress of dramatics, and it looks like we’re fated to see Grace Freeman in lights—unless she changes her name. Mary Glenn, that brunette, is a girl of few words. But when she does say something it’s a friendly greeting or phrase you’re glad to hear. She has been another of those enthusiastic walkers, joining the Hiking Club as a sopho¬ more. She has also been in the International Relations Club, and was on Y Cabinet three years. Anyone as cpiiet and industrious as Mary Glenn will never end up her days in any other way than as some man’s dutiful wife. Mary Glenn Garrison Cornelia , Georgia A.B. PHILOSOPHY 39 Anne Griffin Sanders vilie , Georgia A.B. PHILOSOPHY Katherine Hall Thomson , Georgia A.B. MATHEMATICS We had to elect Anne president of Student Government this year because she has more sisters than anybody else, though the fact that she was on Honor Council her freshman year, treasurer of Honor Council her sophomore year, and vice-president her junior, might have had something to do with it. As soon as Anne walked in the gate singing the Alma Mater she was singled out for president of F reshman Commission, and put right on 1 Cabinet that same year. Anne has been a staunch member of the soccer team for three years as well as an ardent debater. Her kingly perform¬ ance in the stunt this year is surpassed only by her dignity as chief com¬ mencement marshal last year. Once a palmist told her she would be of world-wide fame before the age of thirty. She ll probably grow up to be a philosopher, but we won’t restrict her to that. F or the truth about Anne, see page 101 . I you judged by Kat s demeanor, you might think she’s a carefree person who enjoys life all the time. As such, it’s amazing the number of things she get done. This year, as postmistress, she’s seen that we get that all-important item, mail, and has put her argumentative powers to work as president of Debaters Council. As further exercise for her voice, she was in the (dee Club three years. work has been her specialty since she was a , man. and this year she was chairman of worship. Besides all this, Kat las been a Commencement marshal and an intercollegiate debater, wfe n could go on, but you can probably judge by now that she’s a pretty efficient 40 Rebecca is one of those quiet girls whom you like more and more as you know them better. Like a tailored dress, she wears well. She transferred from Brew ton-Parker, and we’re glad she came. She has been in Dr. Rosser’s Biblical Literature Club two years, the International Relations Club two years (ask her about Spain’s war), and the Home Economics Club two years. Reckon she’ll probably be a woman diplomat, or else just a cook for some man. Sarah has done pretty well everything interesting at one time or another. She’s one of the few seniors who are holding out for a career. Now, though, she’s calmer about it and is defending the idea that a woman can handle both a career—and a marriage—successfully. And in spite of her size, if anyb ody can, it ' s probably she. With her intelligence, poise, and sense of humor it has seemed easy for her to write for the Watchtower , If es- Icyan , and Yeterropt, and be co-author of the winning junior and senior stunts, and manage to keep up soccer and Scribes on the side. She has always managed to find a lot of adventure and crazy excitement in living, and her friends aren’t expecting her to lose this capacity with age. Sarah Hammons Brunswick , Georgia A.B. ENGLISH AND PSYCHOLOGY 41 Sara Harrell Orlando, Florida A.B. HISTORY June Hobbs Macon . Georgia A.B. BIOLOGY Sara was a knockout as Queen Mary. But then she’s had plenty of practice queen¬ ing it over the lowly males. Sara became known as a man-hater during her first years at Wesleyan,—but, ah me, how she has changed. Shes keen active in several clubs, was on Activity Council, was class secretary her junior year, and a VETERROPT staff member. And she showed us this last year that she not only had brains but brawn as well by making the soccer team. If McClelland Barclay doesn’t discover Sara s possibilities as a model, we feel sure it w ill be because some millionaire husband had discovered cr June, that brown-eyed girl, entered Wesleyan as a very conscientious student. Her fresh¬ man year was spent in concentrated study. Then as a member of the Town Girls’ Association, she decided to brave forth in col¬ legiate athletics and played on the famous hockey team of 36- Bet ween cutting up bugs for her biology major and reading parallel for her history minor, June danced gaily in our May festival an the. Centennial pageants. In concluding her college career, she has seriously taken up cooking and belongs to the Home Economics Club. Girls, you may draw ' your own conclusions about this domes i 42 When in doubt, call Barbara. She’ll either solve your problem or make it so compli¬ cated you’ll forget what it was in the first place. Barbara was on the Watchlotver staff as a sophomore, and then did all the hard work as Watchlower associate editor her junior year. Last summer she edited the Handbook all by herself. This year she is a member of the Wesleyan and the ETERROPT staffs. So of course she is a Scribe. She won sophomore honors, was a junior marshal, and has l een a pillar of the French (dub for three years. Barbara can write like nobody’s business. When the editor of Harper s gets a sample he’ll probably fire his whole staff and make Barbara it. Martha is another one of those people who tire you out by doing so many things them¬ selves. But if we had had her in the dormitory—well, that might have made another story. She was oh-what-a-goal-keeper on the soccer team four years, was on basketball four years, and a member of the V Club. She won sophomore honors, was a junior marshal, and was town girl representative on Honor Council three years, besides being Dean Smith’s able assistant three years. Now she ought to go into retirement for awhile. Martha Ruth Livingston Macon , Georgia A.B. MATHEMATICS 43 Anne Maddox Alpharetta, Georgia A.B. ENGLISH Helen Majors Moultrie . Georgia A.B. MATHEMATICS Anne’s among the musical people in our class ami spends a great deal of her tune an energy in playing the piano and in singing. She transferred rom Young Harris College when she was a junior, and during die two years here has been a member of the Glee Club. The Atlanta - u} and Biblical Literature Club have claimed a lot of her attention, too. She’s one of those fortunate people whose mothers came to Wesleyan and so was eligible to the Granddaughters’ Club. Anne’s been true to one heart interest since we’ve known her, and if she doesn t join the ranks of our marrying contingent, maybe she’ll make us famous n “Oh sleep, it is a gentle thing,”—so said Helen,—“but it’s even better in classes. An occasional doze didn’t affect her scholarship, however. She was one of those who got their time reversed and slept all day and stayed awake all night. Well, such is life (for some! at Wesleyan. Helen was a member of the Biblical Literature Club, a member of the French (dub for three years; Home Economics Club; Tennis Club; Sophomore Council; and a junior marshal. So you see, Helen ought not to sleep her u e 44 Mallary is our dancer, of whom we are justly proud. In May Day she was the Gypsy Queen, and in both Centennial pageants she did solos. Besides this she did tap numbers for our cabarets. Along with this art of the dance. Mallary was one of swimming team’s stars two years, and on basketball team twice. She w as also a member of clubs—the Biblical Literature, I rench, and Home Economics, of which she was treasurer this last year. It s a pleasure to hope that at least one of our class may some day turn out to be a second Pavlova. Margaret is one of those people a class can t do without. It didn t take long to dis¬ cover her capability and since then she’s served on practically every class committee, usually as chairman, besides l eing a member of Freshman Commission; Activity Council; treasurer of the dur¬ ing her junior year and vice-president of the junior class. She too, was a junior marshal; she, too, won sophomore honors, and she, too, has a wedding coming soon. She has been on the advertising staff of the Walchtotvtr , and on soccer and swimming teams. And just to prove that Margaret is really a successful business woman, this year she has been advertising manager of the Vetkrropt and treasurer of the Senior Class.

But the worst joke was on herself: she got rides to the Conference at Athens, for every¬ body except herself—though she insisted it was due to pure altruism on her part. Helene transferred to us from Junior College in Augusta. Although she was very quiet we finally realized that we had gained a good girl. As soon as she got here she began to enter into things. Her first year she was in the Biblical Literature Club and was made a junior marshal. As a senior Helene has been program chairman of the International Relations Club, and on the current event committee of the Student Volunteers. These interests, plus her major in history and her quiet manner, practically insure that Helene will turn out to be Ambassador to somewhere. Martha Olliff Cuthberl , Georgia A.B.

PHILOSOPHY AND PSYCHOLOGY Kose always does the unexpected thing, so she ' ll probably turn out well. She was on soccer team four years, basketball four and swimming two. Otherwise she s lazy. She played around on the Watchtower and the Veterropt staffs one year, and on the Wesleyan three. She finally browbeat her wav into the Scribes as a mere sophomore, and later to the editorship of the If esleyan. After that, she browbeat her roommate for editorial help. And she was co¬ author of the winning stunt this year. As Stalin, in the stunt, she was so Russian she now goes by the name of Roseovitch.

Her friends evidently think she manages to get along all right, and at one time or another have entrusted the busi¬ ness affairs of both the Walchtower and the Wesleyan to her hands. Judy has a touch of the artistic in her, too, and has been in the Dramatic (dub and three stunts, as well as being one of the most potent , forces in the (dee Club.

She spent three years at Asbury and Transylvania Colleges in Kentucky. -Mar¬ jorie’s modesty prevented our finding out how many really outstanding things she had done there, hut with a little detective work we discovered that she’d been a big office holder at both places. Marjorie is one of those quiet, c harming people, who entered our life here at Wesleyan very unob¬ trusively; in fact, so unobtrusively that we were amazed to find she was quite good an Archbishop of Razzlierry as she is charming—that’s saying quite a lot. Wesleyan ought to give a major in geography. I hen wouldn t Scotty shine , w ith all that know ledge of China? Really she’s very interested in—China. She s also pretty good, musically s peaking. People have been know n to corner her and insist on being played to by the hour. “Scotty’ has helped with Y work every year, and been a boon to the Watchtower two years, writ¬ ing under her own heading like the big shots. Of course, she has tried other things, even hockey, and was music chairman on Y Cabinet, and on Activity Council, as well as being an under secretary to the President. But that isn’t what we are thinking about. We’re afraid she s going to run away and be a foreign missionary or a Shanghai Lil if the fleet doesn t hurry in. 49 Virginia Scott Winchester , Tennessee A.B. ENGLISH Elizabeth Studstill West Palm Beach, Florida A.B. PHILOSOPHY AND PSYCHOLOGY When Evelyn transferred from Andrew College, Cuthl ert, her junior year, she brought all her good qualities with her. She started in doing things right away, and the basketball team found her a very efficient guard both years. This year she played soccer for the first time, and was able to keep right up with the veteran players. Then she was a member of the Home Economics and Inter¬ national Relations Clubs, and to round out her activities, was elected to Ac¬ tivity Council. Nobody’s ever quite so amused at her ups and downs in heart affairs as is Evelyn, and her sense of humor will carry her a long way. It was a break for us that she decided to spend her last school days at 68 e ' ‘Beth has been the envy of us all for four years. She’s one of those people who never seem to get a hair out of place, and her neatness has put us all to shame. With very little effort, “Beth” managed to play away three years of her college career—taking classes effortlessly, dabbling lightly into clubs, filling in spare time with reading and having—all in all —a capita] time. This year, though, it’s a different story! “Beth has settled down to history with its attendant bugaboo, parallel, and to lndiig business manager of the annual. Always inclined to be foot¬ loose, Beth’’ is planning a little trip to Europe this summer.

She stays at least a month ahead of us in everything from news to studying, and yet seems to have time on her hands. Some of that unquenchable energy was used in being a star basket¬ ball player three years and in soccer two years. Then among her numerous activities have been the French, Tennis and Hiking Clubs, and Sophomore Council. She exercised her way into the coveted “W” Club, and was elected class representative on Honor Council this year. She’s also been our vice-president. An understanding of people and the fact that she is a good listener help make Mary Tanner the kind of person it’s good to l e around. But Mary doesn t spend quite all of her time listening to people’s troubles. She has plenty of talent for art and spends some of her time in the Art Studio. Mary transferred from LaGrange her senior year.

Lois has belonged to several clubs, including the Glee Club, Literature Club, Classical Club, and Biblical Literature Club. But mainly she has been interested in the Student Volunteers. She was their secretary here one year, and as a senior she was state secretary. She has done espe¬ cially good work in philosophy and psychology, and we won’t he sur¬ prised if she writes a book, or turns out to be an eminent philosopher some day. Margaret’s almost a phenomenon, in that her aptitude for math and music are almost equally superior, and somehow’ we never thought of the two as going to¬ gether. She has that certain soothing touch on the piano that makes people want to listen; and the magic touch evidently extends to other activities, too, for she accomplishes things before we even know about them. Margaret was practice superintendent three years, and then, lest the musical atmos¬ phere should overcome her, joined the Hiking Club and Iennis Club. I he powers-that-be must think her scholarship is all right, since she was chosen a junior marshal. She was a member of Sophomore Council and for two years has employed her diplomatic powers on the Church Relations Committee. Lois Tyler Orlando . Honda A.B.

We elected her secretary of her class this year, and in addition to these activities she s been a mem¬ ber of the French Club. “Billie” proved she could “measure up, as a tapeworm in the junior stunt, so well that her selection for the senior stunt was inevitable. As Henry Ford in it she sold trucks so successfully that we feel sure she can make a good business woman if she wants to. For a maiden that likes a little shut-eye as well as Harriet does, it’s amazing to con¬ template the number of things she ' s been able to do in her four years at Wesleyan.

Hail! Wesleyan, here comes the class of 1940. We closed the gates upon your first century, and here we are, ready to make the second hundred years even more eventful than the first. We began our career with cotton stockings, flying shirt tail s, and onion neck laces. These, said the most wise sophomores, would serve to bleach our proverbial freshman green to a paler hue. In spite of all the excitement of rat week, we stopped long enough to wonder how the class of 2040 would be ratted. Having decided that a period of a hundred years would be a much better bleach than an onion, we are now convinced that our great-great-granddaughters won’t need to l e ratted By that time they will be as wise as any sophomore. While we were on the subject, we drew some more conclusions. “Freshmen may improve by age,” we said, “but of this we’re sure: Junior sisters could not be better, even with a century in which to practice the art of sisterhood. On Thanksgiving day we showed the world that freshmen aren’t so bad. We look to that game of soccer so well that we surprised even ourselves. We were unconquerable until the senior team refused to be routed from their champion- 86 Dorothy Rountree Blakely Buck Mascot ship by mere upstarts like the freshman soccer team. We lost, but then there are three more years to conquer, and should we fail again, we can always rely upon that soccer team a hundred years from now. The Thanksgiving banquet was a highlight in our short career. It was there that we found what it really means to he a Wesleyanne. We smiled through tears at the songs that were sung and didn’t mind who saw us. On that Thanksgiving day we were truly thankful that our Wesleyan days were ahead of us instead of behind us. Stunt night came and still we won no fame—rather, no fame as some measure it. Somebody’s got to lose, and we do think we hit the dust nobly. Our author and our actresses did their very best—and really it wasn t such a great defeat. Who will know ' a hundred years from now that, as freshmen, the class of 1940 lost on stunt night? Hail! Hail! here comes the class of 1940. We’ve much behind, but more ahead, and there’s nothing that can stop us now ' that we have started. We have more than our share of pep and enthusiasm and fun. We 11 make histor for you, dear Wesleyan. Just wait another hundred years and see. —Elizabeth Belser. 87 Margaret Adams .... Macon , Ga. Beth Arnold . . West Palm Beach , Fla. LaVerne Baird ....

In the first series the freshmen licked the sophomores w ith a 4-2 hand-out. The juniors surprised everybody, including themselves by whipping the champion seniors 2-0 in an extra minute of play. The second series was postponed almost until New dear ' s on account of rain. We could have had a Mud Bowl game with little trouble. As it was the frodi slipped and skidded their way into one goal.

They were so sleepy the game ended in a tie. hut the seniors, spoiled by now with extra playing time, just played another five minutes and took the juniors by 4-2. The juniors took their star forward. Board, and went off somewhere to die, and the seniors took Denton and went on to the tournament finals. By the time the last game got here the weather was about forty ! eIow r , but en¬ thusiasm had not cooled. The poor teams tried to put their frozen feet in their pockets instead of on the ball. The people who could stop their teeth from chattering said it was a rib-splitting good game. Some senior finally yelled. ‘‘Look, a stove,” and all the frosh ran her way, leaving the seniors to sneak the one goal made that day. So the seniors, having weathered mud and cold, took the cham¬ pionship. dill Hall —Captain Peacler Patterson Ivey Lipps Arnold Battey Belser Clarke Cummins Earinas Lipscomb McCary McDonald Moyer Potts Sampley Stic s n t goo ' ' “ • Wo, guard Eyes on the ball—even the forwards don ' t know wheth¬ er it will go in or not .

Dorsey began stealing honors as high scorer even this early in the tournament. Farkie and Nina, with their strong defense, played circles about the forwards. The sophomores nosed out the freshmen by the steady playing of their tall forward, Wadsworth. Bell, first year guard, played a game hard enough to have beaten somebody. The second series was a race to see which winner could run up the highest score. The seniors captured this race by trouncing the sophomores 52-26. The juniors were a c lose second, whipping the freshmen 40-30. The points were just going up so fast it looked like the stock market before the crash. Peters and Lstes kept their opponents from too big a score, although Graham, freshman captain, charged through the junior defense for 24 points. 7 earn Brown —Captain Davis Wadsworth Neal Carpenter Burch McGee Gaines Garrett Hillman Taylor Cordes Sowell Domingos 162 Percy —Captain Barnes Du Puis Wink Estes Turner Deaver Thornton Touchstone Peters Ponder Gardner cant The SEMI-FINALS was a FIGHT to the death—hut the juniors just gritted their teeth and beat the sophomores so they could go out for senior blood.

Before a riotous crowd, the seniors turned back the junior approach to fame by a score of 20-19. The victory was anybody’s guess until the final whistle. DuPuis and Wink had a shooting spell on that made their goal simply draw the ball. Touchstone, guard, provided them with the ball at every opportunity.

ANDERSON, Ph.D., LL.D. :: President 171 EMORY UNIVERSITY ATLANTA, GEORGIA Founded in 1836 as a liberal arts College, moved to a new and modern plant following its enlargement into a University in 1915, Emory combines the best of the old in higher education with the best of the new. From the beginning this institution has striven for quality rather than quantity in its student body. The University today, consequently, is small enough for friendly, inspiring relations between students and faculty, yet large enough for the broadening, cultural in¬ fluence that comes from contact with men in many fields of learning. Emory ' s 235-acre campus of rolling woodland is located in the beautiful Druid Hills section of Atlanta, six miles from the heart of the city. There are eighteen buildings of Georgia marble and concrete, constructed along distinctive lines of architecture and providing the most up-to-date facilities for study and student life. Under the Emory plan of dividing the four-year College course into Junior and Senior College divisions, the student devotes his first two years to obtaining a broad background of general information, and his last two years to specializing in the subject or subjects of his choice. The program of each student is carefully planned in accordance with his needs and desires as an individual, with the idea of training him not only to earn a living but to live life at its fullest. In the four-year college course Emory offers instruction in twenty-six sub¬ jects, with choice of specialization in the following fields: Biology, Business Ad¬ ministration, Chemistry, Economics, Education, Engineering, English, Fine Arts, French, German, Greek, History, Journalism, Latin, Mathematics, Philosophy, Physics, Psychology, Public Affairs, Political Science, Religious Education, Spanish, and Sociology. Graduate work is available in all of these fields. The professional schools of the University include Medicine, Law, Theology, and Li¬ brary Science. The College of Arts and Sciences provides pre-professional train¬ ing for each of these schools and also for Dentistry. The University operates on the four-quarter basis. By attending school in the Summer Quarter, which carries the same credit as each of the three quarters in the regular scholastic year, the student may finish his college course in three years. The Emory Junior Colleges at Oxford and Valdosta, Georgia, are inte¬ gral parts of the University system. Emory is fully approved by the Association of American Universities, the highest of all accrediting agencies, and each of its professional schools holds an A rating in its respective field.
