Editor . Business Manager . Conservatory Editor . Faculty Advisor Faculty Photographer THE 1945 VETERROPT MACON, GEORGIA orewon cl Wesleyan personifies color and personality—she ' s solid red buck with white marble trimming. Pine trees, green and fragrant, sur¬ round her, and her roof is the open sky sometimes swept with clouds, sometimes sparkling with stars and sometimes filled with raindrops. Her heart is young and alive, pulsing with the lives of those who are learning to live and beginning to live, hach person is a color vibrant and warm, each personality is tempered by lazy spring days, hot summer suns, colored autumn leaves and wintery mud puddles— sticky and red from Georgia clay. With all the beauty given to us to enjoy—the lavender and purple are made richer when every shade and hue are contrasted with and used as backgrounds. 1836—1865—1945—all through the years, the color of Wesleyan has left its mark in the memories, steps and personality of those who have loved her— And so—this is she in the tiny prismatic parts that together make our Wesleyan. on tents LAVENDER . .

She came to Wesleyan a Freshman with TRI-K, she’s given us more than we can ever express in mere words and made a Wesleyan for us that no other dean could have. Since memories are our sweetest possessions, we ll have in her one we’ll always want to keep. In appreciation, Rivoli Campus dedi¬ cates its share of the Veterropt to Miss Johnson. We, the Senior Class of the Conservatory, dedicate our section of the Veterropt to Mr. Elwood Shoenly Roeder, a man to whom his students are humbly grateful for his constant inspiration. In¬ structor in theory, counterpoint, composition, instrumentation, and orchestration, he is loved by those in the music department who know him best, and greatly admired by the rest of the Conservatory. This man, who in his quiet way has helped so many, sincerely de¬ serves his honored place at Wesleyan, and it is our wish that this dedication may in some small way express our feeling for him. ' ,,ss K.rr So let me dream awhile This memory morn . . .

Dean of Women When advice is sorely needed, when programs are tangled worse than spider webs, when we want a helping hand coupled with transcendental philosophy and good common sense—who comes first to mind to whom do we run? You guessed it Dean Akers. Charming, peaceful—let’s have a friendly talk sit¬ ting in a comfortable chair—oriental atmosphere- color in profusion, quiet and bright—abstract design with a modern air—turn right on the Loggia— firs: door to the left—the person who’s a must” on your list—Miss Johnson. Hr. S. L. Aker A.B., B IX, Ph.l Dean of the Coll e ' Fhe Conservatory comes first in her heart. You’ll find the lights burning bright in her office far into the night as she works incessantly to bring this older edit’on of Wesleyan nearer to perfection every day. In spite of her crowded schedule. Miss Horn is rever too busy to give a helping hand to the girls in whom she has so much interest. 1 Miss Annabel Horn Dean of the Conservatory Loved and admired ky all her girls, Miss Comer represents a big part of Wesleyan. Her subtle humor, her understanding nature, her Southern grace and charm— Miss Lula” is one of the rea¬ sons the Conservatory is dear to us. Miss Lula Johnson Comer Counselor of Women 21 Carl I).

Given a s p r av of goldenrod, an October-colored tree, a sunny day. the saffron takes upon itself new brilliance. But even though the rain of April or September homesickness or May dis- appointment, the saffron glow shines with a warmth of its own for which there is only one word—helpfulness Stunt nights and soccer games have known the saffron. And it has mixed with printer’s ink for the Watchtoxver and the Veterropt. Andy is a saffron scribe ... a saffron ■ntiment ... a saffron memory. WINIFRED BOSCH . Glendale, Long Island. N. Y. Spanish The deep blue-green of the sea, the brilliant white caps sweeping toward the shore, the brightness of the sunlight on the waters—Wini. When she entered Wesleyan second semester her freshman year she made everyone love her for her wonderful sense of humor, her quick wit, and that deep- throated chuckle. On the swimming team and in Naiads Wini has displayed enthusiasm and real team spirit. Her strokes for speed have amazed and thrilled everyone. Wini is a great person from whom we all expect great things. MARY MOORE STANDIFER . . . Blakely, Ga. Chemistry “Polly,” like a jingling hell or a twinkling star, is a reminder of Christmas and the contagious laughter of children and the mischievous deeds of elves and fairies. The Tri-K red and white she fought for in haskethall seemed just to suit her; and that same spirit hacked up her Crucible and Art Club work, her work in lab, and her semester honors all four years. Cheerful (but not when she appeared as a ghost on a certain morning at a wee, small hour)—friendly— sportive —Polly is these. VIRGINIA MARTIN. Barbourville. Ky. English (jinny is greenwoods in spring, pine trees outlined against a new’ sky—brown needles under-foot, a tinkling brook, watercress growing in warm, moist earth. Transplanted from Kentucky, she was a lone wolfess in botany this year and showed us all just how the Martin plant could thrive, grow and blossom in Georgia. She sang in the Glee Club, struggled over speeches for Spanish Club, took care of “Tri-K’s” money and when Thanksgiving rolled around got out there and led the cheerin’ for the red and white. What say—versatile? Yep, just ask the gals who know’ her and incidentally they’ll say they love her. 35 MARGARET WISE . Macon, Ga. English A tall, slim sunflower growing up to the light, shedding seeds of friendship and capability to some of us lesser plants around us-that’s Maggie. Remember that long lanky stride, that honey hair, that flame and green evening dress, that extra-special Mag drape over the phone? She was a College Government representative that looked like one. a Navy brat that talked like one. She was pretty ' close to the epitome of our ideals and which one of us was there who didn’t sometimes wish we might enter her prism an ' d absorb some of her colors and moods? VIRGINIA FOSTER. Wadley, Ga. History Indian summer—a hazy day—the smell of burning leaves, smoke fingering its way up among flames—vibrant, full of life—Ginny sparkled with it. She had a car—always full of Infirmary Annex—down to the PIG for a coke and pig special—orders by the dozen to fill for those left behind. Tweedy things were her specialty—her best was with that long golden hair let down, her feet propped up on a chair while she just jabbered on. SARA BURR GREEN. Atlanta, Ga. Psychology Off-key, tone deaf—didn’t give a hoot, a Frank Sinatra in the Junior stunt that didn’t bag a “coo.” But when it comes to livin’, Sa’roo was definitely in tune and when it came to Tom she was symphonic. She might not have known a staff from a game of “tic-tac-toe,” but climbing the scale you’ll find rich tones blending into the melody of “Hail Wesleyan and Tom.” Infirmary Annex will never forget the 100’s of pictures of that man covering her desk, filling her scrap- books and cluttering every nook and cranny. When we wanted an unbiased opinion—she’d say bluntly “don’t like it” or “it’s OK”—natural? Yeah, honey!! She was just Sa’roo to us all. DOROTHY ELIZABETH FRAZER . Columbus, Ga. History Here is one whose magic touch on a bowl of flowers speaks for real talent. In the dorm her nearness might be marked either by the sound of someone singing—really beautifully— or by the loud call of “Frazer.” And as for activities, besides her work in Art Club and Glee Club, she was in Inter¬ national Relations Club her junior year, in French Club her sophomore year, and she was a columnist for a com¬ petitive issue of the li atchtoiver. Without her, many dull library hours would have lacked the added interest of flow¬ ers, arranged as no one else can, and seniors would have missed knowing a quiet, sincere friendliness. 37 TOMMIE DANIEL Athens, Ga. Psychology A poplar tree, tall slim and graceful-moods that whisper _ a g a l W ith personality plus-a contagious grin. I hats Thomas. A member of Phi Mu at Georgia, she was a junior transfer to the “Oldest and Best and proved to be plenty of the latter. Like her tree, she turns a silvery side to the world, but go a little further and you’ll find the rich homely green of the real Tommie-one who cxempl.hed the spirit of Wesleyan. And by the way do you just recall T.D.’s habit of never having any reactions in Experimental Lab? BLANCHE COLEMAN. Dubun, Ga. Chemistry Blanche was like the North Star twinkling in the night, unselfishly lighting the way for others. Friendliness and gen¬ erosity, participation and co-operation, geniality and vivacity _these things spell out Blanche. She was in her element in all sorts of athletics, whether on the soccer field, basket¬ ball court, swimming pool, or atop Rocky. As House President and representative to Student Government she showed us her qualities of leadership. Blanche was indeed “Who’s Who.” Blanche was a real Wesleyanne. Moui.trie, Ga. . . Macon, Ga. MARY FRANCKS WEBB . . Psychology She weaves a “Webb” of activities, and the threads of her interest reach in many directions. She will snare you a man in the date parlor, or free you from entangling guests. She gives of herself and “spins” time and energy in making the plans of the Y.IV.C.A. into purposeful patterns. There is music in Webb, the soft appeal of the vesper choir, or the loud gaiety of a class stunt. Her purpose stretches beyond the campus —Social Service off Campus—World Student Service Fund . There is strength in this “Webb.” MARY ELLEN FINDLAY . . . Speech Gay as a plaid skirt and ready for anything, Mary Ellen has saved many a Wesleyan entertainment from an unhappy fate. Because she is breezy and unpredictable as an April shower, it is just as easy to picture her in a straw hat and wildly checked apron rocking the rafters with some hillbilly song, as it is to see her in more serious moments playing the piano for the Glee Club s Christmas concert. W hatever the atmosphere, when the situation called for good and real co-operation, Wesleyan found Mary Ellen always there. DOROTHY HERNDON . . Spanish Elberton, Ga. Herndon has all the gracefulness of the wh.te b.rch tree, standing tall and slim,-its silver grey bark sparkling as the lights and shadows of the sun are cast upon it. Just as one notices the symmetry of the tree and its tiny, well-formed leaves one notices Dot’s poise and self-assurance, her energy in working out programs for the Spanish Club of winch she was president, and cheering Tri-K to the last. Her warm friendliness shines in the twinkle of her eyes and m her whimsical smile. The simple charm of her personality is the song of the breezes playing through white birches. IN A BLAIR NAU. Barbourville, Ky. English Just down from Barbourville and Union College—a Junior transfer. That kind of lost kitten feelin’ shared by other Junior transfers. But wasn’t long before that silver per¬ sonality caught hold and Wesleyanncs unheld with evidence the adage Kentucky’s the country of beautiful women.” Next Student Government called for its Vice-President and as for “Who’s Who” who was more likely? Twice she beat ’em to the draw—her A.B. in January and M.R.S., degree of all degrees, in summer 44. Note: Final semester courses included Home Economics and Child Psychology. To us she’s Superlative. MARTHA MARTIN Shellman, Ga. ANN NESBITT CoRDELE, Ga. Psychology Turquoise of blue rain that fades into a golf course green. That’s Martha—turquoise with glints of sunlight . . . danc¬ ing feet ... the student lounge ... or turquoise ripples reaching out to embrace the shore. . . . Martha’s turquoise touching Wesleyannes. Emphasize the green for vigor and action—soccer, basketball, A. A., A “W” girl. Emphasize the blue for an understanding spirit . . . freshman commis¬ sion or talks until 3 a.m. Deep-toned, strong turquoise for leadership—the Junior class, College Government. We named Martha for “Who’s Who” because her turquoise compliments all Wesleyan. Speech New spring leaves of Kelly green belong to Ann. Hers is the serenity of a distant mountain peak and the wealth of life and loveliness one finds there when he has moved closer to the green. Telephones and date books . . . orchids and dancing—the green sparkles as a newly-polished gem. Or softly flowing green that moves almost imperceptibly, yet certainly, toward a goal—The Wesleyan . . . the green of lights upon a stage are Ann’s ... or the rugged back- stage business of make-up. I he serenity that makes a de¬ sirable roommate ... the spark of living that makes an essen¬ tial friend—Ann captures the two in Kelly green. Clearwater, Fla. ilVC L LEAR WATER, TLA. MILDRED COLLINS. v English It’s not the days, but the nights; not the quiet and peaceful. but the hectic; not the calm blue of a lake at rest, but the cobalt sea with depths-the roaring waves, a stormy sky thrt means WESLEYAN to this one. Mil s Mil at her best some a.m. at 4:00 with a battered typewmer. the Thetauru.s and her dictionary. Without these gabby sevens and philosophizing moments, the WaUhtwer would have been a nonentity, the IVesleyan would have lacked that whimsy anti all of us would have known the superficial self. “YVhn’ Who” to those who knew her. m:il JAMIE LOUISE RICHARDS . . . Hastings. Fla. Chemistry Blue enchantment — a rhapsody in black the constant nymph, the Psyche Oversoul. Pulsing, vibrating, whirling in her prism, a surface self, an inner self and she. A mood, a moonbeam, speck of stardust—Jamie inwardlj and then to think of mundane things like cleaning house—Mil would watch and wonder. •12 MIRIAM WARREN CHYLINSKI . Detroit, Mich. English A treasurer house of gold she brought to us . . . the gold of sunbeams touching San Francisco’s foaming sands ... of winds in golden wheat-fields of the west ... of symphonies in concert halls ... the glitter of Chicago thoroughfares . . . October leaves and multi-colored rock cut by a stream. For two years the purple and lavender were brighter because of .Miriam who mirrore d golden radiance . . . her hair . . . her smile . . . her heart. SARA EMMA GRIFFIN .Swainsboro, Ga. Religion Unsophisticated, hair Hying, laughing, crinkly blue eyes, skinned knees, “W” proudly displayed, limping on crutches —perfect portrait of Sara. Remember those blue sky days, those scared Freshmen and warm bright sunshine on an autumn soccer field—kick off—down the field a goal. Three cheers for “dear old 1 ri-K. and that (jriftin gal. Tennis, swimming, basketball—just name the sport and call for “Sarar Emmer.’’ 43 . . Thomson, Ga. LOUISE DUNN GIBSON . - • Psychology Light and fluffy-airy-all those frat pins, etc.-a change for everv outfit. Apple green and naive—pretty and sum- mery —every little breeze seems to whisper Louise. Its not those moments of deep brown study in problems of Phychology for which she’ll be remembered, but things like “For 1,349 days he’s never failed to kill a wife. A 11 then the movie magazines accompanied by the crunch ot i andy. Betcha we’ll more often recall the time she wasted with us singing on the roof than the time some might have considered “well spent.” MARY EVA RAY .Norwood, Ga. Psychology She hails from a lil ole town—just 200 people, but they have a postoffice, a couple of general stores and something that can’t be found in a big city—there’s that hearty hos¬ pitality and warmth th at goes with knowing and loving people. Ma’va is the product you’d expect—she’s got that something that makes friends and holds ’em. Can you think of the feelin’ you get when you’re sitting in front of a warm fire crackling high and holding hands with “the man?” Well, that’s the sort of thing she radiates. LOUISE AVERA Fort Valley, Ga. French Orange blossoms—white blooms cluster about the fresh green leaves of the trees. And orange blossoms are particularly significant just now for “Bease” because of that diamond glittering on her third finger, left hand. Her slow and pleasant Southern drawl gives one a feeling of relaxation. Her quick comebacks keep a bull-session lively. Her delight¬ ful smile makes a person feel warm and cozy. “Bease” is as refreshing as are the orange blossoms of early May. BETTY JANE WILKINSON . . . Bainbridge, Ga. Psychology When Betty says something you may be very sure she means it. No beating around the bush for her—it s all straight from the shoulder. Smart, too! Ummm! Betty’s one of these remarkable clear thinking people who sees things right through and sticks to her opinions. One of her favorite sports is tennis. And Betty chasing about the tennis court with sparkling eyes and flying blond hair is indeed a striking figure. No, Wesleyan will not soon forget her. 45 LOIS LOVE GOLDMAN .Ocala, Fla. Psychology (inti Sociology A lake, clear and sparkling with unplumbed delight—com¬ plete and jewel-like. Music is the stream that feeds it while the beauty of all things good color it. ' I he lake, in turn, feeds into many streams—witness the ’44- ' 45 Hand¬ book, IRC, pictures for the Vetkrropt and the ads of the 1944 Wesleyan. The lake is stirred by storms—ideas dance on the waves jerking out its potentialities anil m.iking it more beautiful and inspiring. Could she be less than Who’s Who” and Superlative? ANNETTE RUMPH PEERY . . . Pineview, Ga. Religion Look for the spiritual thoughts, find a dry wit, an infectious giggle; look for whimsy to go with the dancing curls, find depths unknown even to Neptune. She’s a perfect compound —a mysticism calling for greater relationship with God, a realistic outlook on life and a romance with Stewart. She’s the one who sees the black and white and believes in the greys that lie fetween and are unknown. GWENDOLYN RESNICK. Miami, Fla. History and Government A green plush horse tinkling “Silent Night,” a string of gourds all red, yellow and orange hanging by the bookcase, a good long gab about last month’s cleaning bill—atmosphere for Wesleyan’s “model” dressed girl and example of Yo ue sty lcs. But under it all was the History-Government Major, the gal who dreamed of “Lenny” who radiated an aura of Fifth Avenue, Miami glamor and cosmopolitan stuff. Cli¬ maxing all the deeds done was the Red Cross work that proved our argument—want a real swell person for a friend? Ask first floor South and you’ll hear “Resnick.” REBECCA SHIPLEY. Columbus, Ga. History Becky is as lively and refreshing as a running fountain. Her cherubic smile that accentuates those dimples has helped to enliven everything at Wesleyan from Radar announcements to the library desk. The effective use of words is a gift with Becky, whether she is presiding at I.R.C., campaign¬ ing for Roosevelt, or writing a story. She has a natural knack for goal-keeping, too. Contagiously happy—friendly— witty—just plain smart—all of these is Becky! 47 C T IT D DADT dimple brison .... Winchester, Tenn. Psychology Whimp—Dimples—Whimple Blimp nicknames galore — Dimple’s been blessed with ’em. And why not when some¬ one’s like her giving of self, deep as the Pacific_at times just as calm and at others just as stormy. VV hen something was wrong, who comforted, who gave the rub-downs, who ma de everything all right, who could you get to take an early Sunday morning or mid-night walk, or to talk to you while lying on the Idle Hour Golf Course looking at the stars some crisp, cool evening? Just Dimple. Activities l.ke Freshman Commission, Soph Council and “V Council were part of her personality. She lived up to their ideals in the fullest sense of their true meaning. EMILY NORTON. Tallulah Falls, Ga. History Kaleidoscope should be her middle name. Every time you look at her you see something different. Maybe you see a blue bathrobe protruding into the hall and calling. “It’s quiet hour!” Maybe you see a blur of purple as she breezes by pursuing a soccer or tennis ball. Maybe you see hands rammed to the bottom of the deep pockets of a red monkey jacket as she laughs sincerely over the joke she’s just told for the tenth time. Or maybe you have a silvery vision as you hear her playing “Clair de Lune.” That anyone could do so much—even be house president—and still graduate in three years, is bard to believe unless you know “Lil Emily. FRANCES THURMAN. Miami, Fla. Biology When you hear frogs croaking on a summer night, whom will you think of? When you hear a cat howling in the cold harvest moonlight, whom will it remind you of? Thurmie, of course, and those conversations at dinner about the frog or cat or whatever it was that she had been cutting on in lab! Hut aside from her passion for cutting, and also for mixing dangerous combinations of chemicals, Thurmie is the kind you like to have around. Remember those good rub-downs she gave when she w r as water-boy for the fresh¬ man soccer team? And if you don’t believe she has plenty of gra matter and elbow grease, ask anybody who has majored in biology and graduated in only three years! ELIZABETH KNIGHT HEARN . . . Griffin, Ga. English Her soft voice and gentle manner balance her unyielding determination to get things done. She so calmly plodded through one English course after another that hardly anyone realized she was following the three year accelerated pro¬ gram. Her long slender fingers that run over ivory keys with such melodious results seemed also to instill a sort of music into articles she wrote as associate editor of the W ' esleyan. Gracious towards all and full of true Wesleyan spirit is Betty Hearn. 49 I _ THELMA WYLENE DILLARl) . . . Macon, Ga. English We’ve seen that Dillard gal” in Glee Club and Music Club, or swinging out at a piano in the dorm or gym. 1 wo years she was on Y Activity Council, and this year as our Senior Class Vice-President she was swell. Some have imagined how good she’d be as a cover girl for some leading magazine—especially for a fall issue. For to look at Wylene is to see the russet and gold of an autumn day. the red- orange of a sunset, the yellow of a fall chrysanthemum. To know her is to know laughter—-fun—warm friendliness. JEANNE BENEFIELD DILLARD . Columbus, Ga. Speech Look at a lovely rainbow and you unconsciously think of Jeanne—the sparkling clearness of her personality in the hand of multi-colors; the beauty of her serene spirit in the clean washed sky behind. Jeanne’s vitality and enthusiasm and that characteristic freshness are reflected in all she does. Yet there is that undercurrent of seriousness which illumines and makes beautiful her character. All this we will remem¬ ber. For Jeanne is like the lovely rainbow whose memory never fades but remains with us always. ANN POITEVINT. Pelham, Ga. Biology A beam of sunshine falls on a drop of dew, causing the small gem of water to sparkle brightly with every’ color of the rainbow. Ann’s personality is just as bright and colorful. You feel her radiance the minute she smiles in her sort of dignified but convincing manner. You discover all sorts of interesting colors as you watch her doing everything from making kymograph records in lab. to demonstrating expert strokes at Naiads. There’s warm red glow for sheer joy of living, a soft blue for her stability, a golden luster for her cheerfulness, a cool green for skill, and a royal purple for unwavering loyalty. DOROTHY WILKIN REPASS . . . Colquitt, Ga. Psychology It’s not hard to imagine Dot as a summer bride. For winter winds may whine about her, and rain may come in torrents; but somehow there is always her particular type of sunshine —always welcome, warmly pleasant, like summer itself. Her action on the soccer field, however, was not like any summer calm. Crucible Club, Sophomore Council, Hiking Club, and Sophomore Class Treasurer took up most of her time. Some day soon that time will be taken up by Hob, who must miss summertime—and pleasantness. 51 ELEANOR HOYT . Atlanta, Ga. English Warm brown of cinnamon is Eleanor . . . with compli- mentary tones. The orange of the Georgian earth ... a drawl . . . a smile ... or deep brown eyes with sparks of gold ... and strength to see into clear heaven blue—fresh¬ man commission ... the undertone of brown grow, deeper . crisp, vibrant beauty in November woods, chocolate midnight hours . . . brown intensified for strength in College Government . . . Summer is hers with sun brown of swim¬ ming. tennis . . . November’s soccer . . . deep brown for A.A. But to Wcsleyannes she is the warm brown of cin¬ namon ... rich color of ideals ... of a friend ... a Who’s Who” girl . . . our choice for Miss Wesleyan. CAROLYN CLARK .Smithville, Ga. Speech She stands on her tiptoes and stretches her arms wide to claim the fullness of living. Understanding lies close to her heart and flows out in a friendliness that is like a refreshing breeze on a summer day. Carolyn is happy in helping and calls others out of themselves into the YJV.C.A. She speaks the spirit of Wesleyan and radios” its meaning everywhere. 52 ANNIE LEWIS COTTON .... West Point, Ga. English Spring . . . apple blossoms play with the wind. Delicately pink, and airy they are a symbol of a clean new freshness. So it is with Cotton. Into soccer she put her wholehearted enthusiasm. The Negro play group loved her for her whims¬ ical gaiety. An early bird, she always had a note propped against the alarm clock “Wake up Betty at 6:00.” Cotton is the simpleness and spontaneity of springtime. FRANCES RUSHTON. Atlanta, Ga. English Major Think of a blue October sky, a blue that becomes deeper and more beautiful as you search its vastness. In it you sense the completeness that is Franees, the depth and rich¬ ness of her understanding. The breadth of her thought reaches in many directions: the poetry of her personality in the Wesleyan, the seriousness ot her purpose in Student Government, the willingness to serve others in the Y.W.C.A. She is the clearness of an October sky, unmarred by a single cloud. BKTTYE MILTON. Atlanta, Ga. English The russet of tangy apples ... of walks through November ' s painted woods ... of sharp notes of a jook and I he Bolero”—russet and Bettye. There is a fire of vigor about h er |, ue —the excitement of soccer ... the tenseness of stunt nights. And the deep-set russet glow of talks from bed to bed ... of shared happiness ... of friends. . . . For four years the russet that is Bettye’s has brought a warmth of living to those who knew her. DOROTHY LACHMUND . . . Blacksburg, S. C. English Meeting Dot is like finding a morning glory in the late afternoon. Getting to know her is like watching the flower reveal all of its gorgeous blue at dawn. It is a pleasant surprise to discover her keen wit, her deep-thinking logic, her great versatility. In soccer and basketball she’s quick and accurate. In classes—even Dr. Gin’s!—her grades are topnotchers. In bull sessions Dot keeps the conservation plenty interesting, even if she has to stir up an argument. And can she knit! P.S.: It doesn’t take long to discover her true-blue side. WINIFRED COLQUITT. Perry, Ga. Mathematics It is here that you find beauty, not artificial beauty, but true beauty that is seen not only with the eye but also with the heart. “Winkie” is the sudden gladness ot an autumn day, the happy talk of bright leaves tumbling along a woody path, or the quiet stillness of sun and shadow on rich, firm earth. A hike with the challenge of the wind against the cheek—a soccer game with the fun of coordination and cooperation—flapping “scuffs” in the quiet hall with coffee for sleepy friends—a class officer with the satisfaction of work well done. “Winkie” combines the challenge and yet the deep calm of an autumn day. ELIZABETH JONES. Oxford, Ga. English The depth, the strength, the majesty of Prussian blue belong to “Lib,” who is “Who’s Who” for Wesleyannes. Indeed, “she walks in beauty”—the beauty of a thousand happy yesterdays . . . rich b lue memories . . . clear blue dreams . . . cerulean thoughts . . . and the fulness of Prussian blue in living. Shimmering blue ripples of laughter belong to “Lib” . . . or calm waters that move dependably—stunt night . . . the strength of blue that leads . . . the tremendous beauty of blue that creates life from life—the IVesleyan. So has the purple and lavender been richer because its soul has had the soul of Prussian blue. 55 Atlanta, Ga. HELENE JONES. Macon, Ga. English If you’re looking for a gal whos had a hand in almost every goings-on at Wesleyan, STOP right here. In her own spicey, inimitable way, Pat managed to keep the Social Standards of this community on the up and up and colored every affair with that Wesleyan spirit. Remember her in that light blue formal, remember that short curly hair and the spectacles with rosy red rims, remember her on the soccer field in red and white, remember her at College Government meetings and most of all—we’ll never forget that all of us agreed she was Superlative. JANE METHVIN. Psychology Blue that speaks of April’s a .ure skies . . . with cream puff clouds of freedom ... and the clean smell of ram are Jane’ For four years her azure light has touched Wesleyan . . . an azure cutting streaks of lightning that were the action of a soccer game, a basketball match, a swimming meet . . . or sunlight filled the blue with golden gems for honors well bestowed_“Who’s Who” ... or the tranquility of an evening sky that spoke of friends ... of memories ... of the reverence of the “Y.” She sang in the Glee Club . . . but the clearest melody came from the azure beaut) that is Jane herself. EVA SPENCE Atlanta, Ga. Speech A fantasy of amethyst is Eva, whose laughter falls like gold- dust particles on Wesleyan. Somewhere there is a flower, a part of sunset skies, a lake that is her amethyst. The color grows light . . . life-filled . . . life-producing in the comedy of Shakespear’s Pyramus and Thisby . . . and Lady Macbeth for stunt night ... or the tragedy in “Cry Havoc.” And melodies of amethyst she brings—the Glee Club. Under¬ tone of purple color the amethyst. . . . This is her strength in purpose—in the “Y,” the Wesleyan , The Veterropt, the ocial Standards bearers of the campus. Indeed, there is much of purple royalty in Wesleyan’s amethyst girl. JEAN MITCHELL. Jacksonville, Fla. History Wit bubbling, effervescent and to the point. Why can’t we all be clever—have all those little ways that paint the lives around us in such bright hues? Sportsmanship was Mitch’s strong forte—she sacrificed that ankle for soccer; she had an eye for making money—recall the Soph Council when she was treasurer and sold all those cream puffs and luscious brownies? And what got us most was: Mitch could make decent grades under Dr. Gin. 57 CATHKR1NE NELI Macon, Ga. English Catherine brought with her this year an artistic appreciation, a warm smile, and friendliness. She and Irene have spent most of their lives in Minnesota, having moved from Min¬ nesota to Pennsylvania and then to Macon. Catherine was active at Dickinson in Y.W.C.A. work and was a member of the International Relations Club and the Dramatic Club Campus Playhouse. Her honorary life membership in the Collegiate Art Palette Guild and her work on the art staff of the newspaper and yearbook are hints of talent, and she was also a member of the Zetalethian Literary Society, the A capella Choir, and the Phi Mu Sorority, and at Wesleyan was active in Glee Club and Fine Arts Club activities. To find her friendliness is merely to speak and to watch an instant smile appear. IRENE MAY NELL. Macon, Ga. English Fall also brought Irene; and perhaps it is no wonder she and Catherine are often confused, for in Irene, too, are friendliness and artistic talent and a real love of drawing. At Dickinson, where she played basketball and softball, she was a member of the Phi Mu Sorority, was active in Y.W.C.A. work and a Geneva Conference delegate her second year. Besides holding an honorary life membership in tlie Collegiate Art Palette Guild, she was artist of the Dickinson Yearbook and a member of the Dickinson Zetale¬ thian Literary Society, the A capella Choir, the newspaper staff, and the Wesleyan Fine Arts and Glee Clubs. Fall can be like spring, when it brings new ' acquaintance—friend¬ liness—the Nell girls. 58 HARRY EDWARDS. Macon, Ga. English Harry is the unexpected and delightful—the sudden clear bird call on a spring day, the freshness of light raindrops on dusty earth. Her thoughts are quick and certain like stones falling into a still pool, rippling the surface into ever broadening circles. Harry’s versatility flashes in the Wes¬ leyan or as Cleopatra in the class stunt. She’s Who ' s Who here and a special Who’s Who with a pilot over there. JULIA YORK. Macon, Ga. Psychology In the wild confusion of the Day Students Room between the classes, calm unhurried Julia is like an easy’ April after a turbulent March. Transferring to Wesleyan her Junior year, she soon found a place for herself—we found her rest¬ ful as the green of a fragrant pine forrest and we learned to appreciate her dry wit and good natured practicality. 59 Bogota, N. J. BETTIE HOTALING . . . Psychology Silver wings shining—hair shining—soft colors—deep friend¬ ship with her roommate—these are Bettie. She isn’t afraid of cold weather and snow, nor is she afraid of a center- half back. She simply takes that soccer ball—whizz—a goal. Quiet smile—pleasant warmth—deep understanding—loyalty to our Wesleyan and her adopted Georgia. GERTHA MAE PURYEAR .Omaha, Ga. History Quick, quizzicaf, clever and sometimes dreamy, Gertha at¬ tracted us everyone like honey does bees on a hot summer’s day. And just the same way “that man” came into her life—have you seen the ring that illumines a dark room when she walks in—can you find enthusiasm anywhere more refreshing than Gertha’s or the sort of feeling you get on a hot August afternoon after a surprise shower? Tri-K says “No” and they ought to know—they’ve known her four years shouting herself hoarse at soccer games, working on committees and just being there when she was needed. 60 FLORENCE TUCKER . . . Chattanooga, Tenn. History A dumping of loafers filled with yellow and green socks, a flash of red, blue and orange flannel shirt topping blue jeans —Flossie has arrived!! Remember the A.A. Barn Dance— the ballet with Hoots, the clacking of a typewriter turning out stories for the Wesleyan and the hearty snicker? Tuck was all this plus our sturdy bulwark for stunts and deadly serious hull sessions. EFFIE WADSWORTH THORNTON, Columbus, Ga. Spanish A flow of Spanish, high heel pumps, Psychology at midnight, “now-it-is and now-it-isn’t” hair; efficiency hidden under scatter brain date-bait. “Fifi” is a Horatio, giving of her time, energy. (Note: the advertising of this Veterropt) and ready wit. She’s a compound of all paradoxes—she surely doesn’t portray that ole maxim “Beautiful, but dumb” —the latter descriptive adjective belongs somewhere else. 61 MARTHA GRAGG Bainbridge, Ga. Psychology Picture bright sunlight on ripening wheat. The warmth and color of it gives a friendly comfortable feeling that makes you sing inside. Gragg’s charm is the same. The many telephone calls for her are ample proof of this. Her high spirits and good nature add fun to soccer. She’s lively and wants to he where things are happening. In everything she expresses the vibrant color of her personality. MARY BROWN MALONE .Albany, Ga. Speech Yellow moonlight on a warm summer night—it makes us think of Mary Brown. Picture her coming out from a practice session with the Naiads, damp but sparkling, per¬ haps singing snatches of Indian Love Call in her lovely clear soprano ... or putting all she had into her performances in “Cry Havoc” and “The Trojan Women.” Remember her wide interests and her versatility, but remember, too, that picture everyone has of lovely hair and complexion, warmth and friendliness—Mary Brown. 62 ZEPH BLAIN . . . . . Ft. Robinson, Neb. Albany, Ga. English Warm wind brings soft sunlight and yellow peaches; and much more than just the similarity of a name brings an association of Zeph and Zephyrus. Is it that peach-colored sweater she wears, her silk-textured hair, or just the smooth calmness of her manner that hint at spring, and make us sa “peaches and cream?” Zeph’s a real traveler, having attended four colleges in four years, while following her mother and her father, who is a colonel in the Regular Army, to various army stations. A member of the “Army Brats Club” at the University of Texas her sophomore year, she has also been a Phi Mu and a “Blue Bonnet Belle Nominee.” And she’s one of those who love fun—tennis and swimming and dancing. Everyone’s glad she returned to Wesleyan, this year. LUCY JANE HALEY .... Psychology The touch of slim fingers and perfectly lacquered nails on a glass at the table, the business-like skill of managing a horse at the Horse Show’, an interest in Crucible Club, a love for and understanding of music—these mark Jane. And who hasn’t seen that little white Ford pull out from the dormitory porch on its way to the “Pig? I hat was always “Haley” and “Snooks” procuring food for the night. Here is calmness. Yes—the quiet of a soft blanket of winter’s snow beckoning, “Come under and you will find surprising warmth.” And we have found friendliness. DOROTHEA JARRATT .Macon, Ga. Psychology Always ready to laugh with someone but never at her, there’s something of the fun of the Christmas spirit, always, in Dot—something gay as Jingle Bells, a peppermint candy stick or stockings hanging by the fireplace — a Southern Christmas with flowers still blooming and the trees still alive and beckoning—color and virve—that’s what we mean when we say “Dot.” Her energy—her dancing activity has found outlets in the French Club, Y.W.C.A. Cabinet, H ' atchtower and things too numerable to mention. HELENE ANDREWS ARRINGTON . Macon, Ga. Mathematics The quiet crisp brilliance of an October afternoon, the depth and clearness of a mountain stream mean Wesleyan to this one. Helene is at her best when given the difficult to do, the thing which challenges the supreme effort of a fine intellect. Yet the ones who truly know her remember her not only for her brilliant capabilities, but for her thought¬ fulness and unassuming good nature. LAUREL DEAN GRAY . . . . •. . Macon, Ga. Music A formal flower garden at early morning in May is not neater or calmer or fresher looking than Laurel Dean. You’ll always find blue skies by looking into her eyes. Her calm disposition combined with the magic touch she has at the piano will give the most soothing and satisfying music imaginable. Maybe it was her own music that kept her serene while she was trying to graduate in only three years. At any rate, May and melodies will always be reminders of Laurel Dean. JOYCE DANIEL. Macon, Ga. Psychology Faintly pink apple blossoms in spring ... a bluebird’s song . . . and Joyce. Coming from Mercer University and gradu¬ ating from Wesleyan after only three years of college, Joyce w’as a welcomed addition to the senior class. Meeting her in the midst of a hurry-scurry day is like hearing a soft sweet melody. No wonder music is a passion with her, for she and music are one. 65 SARAH FRANCES WHATLEY . . . Griffin, Ga. History Have you ever walked through the woods on a summer afternoon and come suddenly to an open space in the trees where the sun sparkled on the waters of a small stream and seemed to make it come alive with joy? And didn’t it make you think of Snooks with her wonderful sense of humor, her love for fun, and that originality which marked every¬ thing she did ? Remember Snooks on that socce r field, kick¬ ing those balls ’most out to the cabin? And remember her on the swimming team, and playing a bang-up game of basketball? But Snooks by no means limited herself to athletics. She was active in Y, took part in class stunts, and invariably she carried that camera around making mar¬ velous snapshots we’ll not soon forget. Yes. Snooks had all the vitality of a brook with its pinpoints of sunlight dancing gleefully upon the surface. LUCILE D1SMUKE. Psychology . Macon, Ga. Lucile—pleasing and colorful as a bright yellow leaf flutter¬ ing to the ground on some September morn. When she transferred to Wesleyan her Junior year. Wesleyannes soon discovered her flair for style, that “Bernard Shaw” gift for satire and her ability as an entertaining and witty conversationalist. PAULINE DOMINGOS. Macon, Ga. Psychology An old fashioned garden, tulips in neat straight rows, roses held on trellises, a new June morning and Polly. She’s just like that—always the impeccable—always in everything, with everything managed just right. Last year it was the Hatch- toner, this year the YTterropt —Managing Editor of both and a swell job done both times. And do you recall Thanks¬ giving Days and P.I). out there giving out with those vicious kicks and the gabs we’ve had curled up on some bed six deep on nights we’ll never forget? Will we remember?—we’ll never forget. EDNA LUCYLE CHENEY .... Sarasota. Fla. Speech Lucyle was in the Laus Club and the International Relations Club her Junior year, and she was an active member also of the Hiking Club and the Music Club. “Chenej makes you laugh, for she is always laughing or losing her billfold or calling “Ma-adge.” She makes you marvel, for she can sit down and in a short time produce a short story that is really good, one to be reread. Best of all, Cheney is a friend—quietly unselfish—deeply loyal. 67 VIRGINIA L. HARRIS. Cochran, Ga. Chemistry Whether you glimpse her in lab stirring a beaker of white fumes, or whether you see her in the practice room running nimble fingers over black and ivory keys, or whether you watch her presiding at Crucible Club meeting, you’re aware of her winsome smile and of her two violet-like eyes. What¬ ever she’s doing, you can know will be done well. Infinite patience, quiet leadership, and natural talent have endeared Virginia to all who have known her during her three full years at Wesleyan. ALICE CHILDS. URAY ’ UA - English A calm soft voice like the balmy breeze of a summer night, a warm reassuring smile, an air of composure and charm— these all belong to Alice. Always busy but never seeming to rush, Alice admirably completed four years of work in three and still had time to minor in bridge and chat parties. With a high rating in friendliness, dependability, and popu¬ larity. Alice is one whom everybody is glad to have had at Wesleyan. 68 CLYDE (JREEN. Butler, Ga. Piano There’s a technique about Clyde—in the music she loves so well—-and in her way with men. Both are important, of course. An artist—with the temperament that goes with it . . . rage presence . . . self-confidence . . . believing in her¬ self and her music. Believing too, in the line she strings to the men as she stands at the phone with toes curled. Thats the wav we’ll remember Clyde—technique, and that certain something needed for real musicianship. KATHERINE PAGE. Lyons, Ga. Speech As a character in the Wesleyan Radio Playshop, Katherine has always portrayed the lovable, naive and mischievous Bunny. As Seepy Page . . . unaffected, sincere, friendly, capable Seepy . . . she plays an identical role. Her huge eyes are innocent and Southern . . . and her voice true Georgian . . . her school achievements many . . . President of the Freshman Class . . . Religious Chairman . . . House President . . . and this past year an officer of the Junior Class. You want to meet her . . . you want to know her . . . because she’s always herself . . . Seepy. Jacksonville, Fla. ANN FINCANNON. Costume Design A contradiction to the adage about “beautiful but dumb” women, is our Annie. Even so ... to most people she presents a dual personality . . . one. the sophisticated, long eye-lashed glamour gal she seem to be . . . t’other, the down- to-earth realist she is. We like ’em both . . . namely cause they blend so well . . . like night and day . . . And even at night Ann has her points! MAUDE WILLIAMSON .Eastman, Ga. Costume Design Contradiction is Maude’s middle name. Her glamour has a little girl-like quality. She’s as unpredictable as she is bewildered .... and as natural and unaffected as the kid next door. This year finds her as social chairman, but what the succeeding years will bring is still anybody’s guess. Look¬ ing in the crystal we see a bit of music, and for the records we find that she majored in piano at Sullens, before making art and Wesleyan her one and only . . . Maude . . . the gal with the question mark as her shadow . . . and the nonchalant air of a sophisticate. ROSA MOORE MACAULAY . . Waynesboro, Ga. Costume Design Some day we shall know Rosa as the buyer for an important store . . . the same Rosa who now reminds us of a China doll . . . sweet and easy-going . . . clear as crystal . . . happy-go-lucky . . . really a typical Southerner. Rosa thinks her room-mates are the best ever . . . they shall always mean Wesleyan to her . . . they reciprocate by saying that she looks like Porky the pig . . . gratitude ... in a left- handed compliment. ... A happier foursome we have yet to see . . . and we nominate Rosa and her casual air as the happiest. MARGIE FISKE. Augusta, Ga. Piano The Bach to Boogie gal, who beats out the solid rhythm strictly for her own pleasure and enjoyment, is our Margie. But don’t let her fool you . . . under all that good-natured¬ ness is a thinking seriousness, an idealistic preciseness . . . and ’tis rumored she even comes close to being a brain child! For proof of the latter we have the fact that she is one of our Who’s Who . . . and also the esteemed President of the Senior Class. Could we ask any more? 71 LUCY CARTER Ray City, Ga. Music Education A Christmas box of personality ... the frills and the ribbons ... the friendliness and the graciousness . . . Lucy Carter. To her, Wesleyan has given all she had ever hoped to gain from college life. We knew her as an outstanding leader in campus activities . . . President of our Student Government . . . Superlative . . . social chairman . . . chief marshall . . . and most important of all—a friend. And now Who’s Who ... in national honor as well as in Wesleyan’s opinion. MAYRE HALL CRUTCHFIELD . . Decatur. Ga. Music Education Looking into the future is one‘of May re’s favorite pastimes . . . for the future sees Paul home from the war, and her life as really being Mrs. Crutchfield just beginning. As for the present . . . and the waiting . . . and the immediate future . . . May re plans to teach. As for the past, Wesleyan knew Mayre as Social Chairman . . . and more recently . . . House President. We’ve known Mayre as the type of gal who takes the initiative . . . with determination . . . and accomplishes what she sets out to do . . . which may be the reason she’s married and we’re not . . . who knows? JEAN HERRITAGE Piano Moultrie, Ga. HERBERT HERRINGTON . . , . Macon, Ga. Our nomination for one who is sure to succeed in her chosen field is Jean ... for her conscientiousness and efficiency make her well suited for the teaching profession. For these same qualities she has done an excellent job as House Presi¬ dent in Georgia Hall this past year. In her life at Wesleyan, Jean has found a realization of all her dreams . . . and we hope that in her future life, she will find an equal satisfaction. Piano With the mark of an incurable perfectionist upon him, and the air of a cosmopolitan as his trade, Herbert means music to Wesleyan. Music in which he finds an outlet for his love for the aesthetic. You feel intensity in everything he dees—the organ prelude at St. Paul’s—his energetic dis¬ cussions with the girls. His is the bustle of the ever-busy; like the ceaseless song of life. The dreams of an idealist are there, riding with the awareness of life and the sense of responsibility of the practical. Orchids to the one and only co-ed of this Senior Class. MARGARET TILLMAN. Statesboro, Ga. Piano If you’ve ever watched champagne sparkle and bubble—as with life . . . known of its impulsiveness and unpredictable nature ... you have some knowledge of Maggie’s spontane¬ ous personality. Her theme is “live for the day,” and her perpetual happiness gives credit to her belief. Maggie is the outdoor girl . . . whose indoor love is music ... and Papa Maertz ... and Tooter. Miss Junior is also a casual idealist ... an occasional burst of seriousness pro¬ viding variety. Her vague ambition—to teach ... but remember . . . we said she was unpredictable! MARl ' HA WEAVER. Dudley, Ga. Piano For quiet simplicity and sincerity, for the feeling of calm¬ ness and peace that come to the deeply religious, for naive depth and musicianship, we know and love Martha. With¬ out her quiet leadership in her position as Religious Chair¬ man, V espers would have lacked the profoundness and mean¬ ing she gave them . . . you feel it in her voice, her manner, and her soul. Music, religion and Martha . . . they go hand in hand. Martinez, Ga. JULIET POWELL TURNER . . Centerville, Md. Costume Design One sometimes thinks of classicism as being outmoded . . . the classic people . . . calm . . . quiet . . . serene . . . strength in repose . . . majestic and sublime. . . . But for four years Wesleyan has watched the tall, stately walk of Juliet Turner ... the quiet dignity of her manner . . . and we call her classic. In turn Juliet has seen Wesleyan grow . . . has found untold enjoyment in the variety of activities one finds offered here ... the musical concerts ... the plays . . . and, of course, the art exhibitions. And speaking of art . . . Juliet plans to apply her’s in the home ... the home she and Hayden will have . . . someday soon. KATHERINE GIBBS . . . Speech Remember “Flo” in “Cry Havoc”? The peace-making . . . easy-going . . . casual Elo? . . . the gal who took things as they came . . . able to stand up under all that came along? . . . Well . . . off-stage as well as on . . . Kathy does a good job of portraying the character of Elo ... for she really had character . . . sincerity ... a dry ' wit . . . thoughtfulness ... in other words, a real friend was Elo . . . and is Katherine. She’d have to be such to be able to take on the task of washing people’s hair . . . you see her all the time . . . and the lines grow longer and longer . . . and Kathy has patience! 75 Statesboro, Ga. LORENA DURDEN. Statesboro, Ga. Piano Tis said that in a quiet person one usually finds sincerity . , . true friendship . . . and so it is with Rena. 1 o the world she presents a calm, dignified, and serene countenance . . . the repose of the classic. 1 o those who know her as a lasting friend, she is as full of fun as is needed ... as loyal and unselfish as could he desired ... in her easy¬ going, good-natured manner. Her plans to teach are ampli¬ fied by her love and subsequent ability for her music. We’re sure all her plans will come true. JEAN CONE Speech The sounds of hammering in the wee small hours of the mom will always bring back thoughts of Wesleyan to Jean ... for even though it is the acting side of show business that catches her deep interest, she has spent many an hour on the construction end. For four years, Jean has watched Wesleyan grow and progress . . . and Wesleyan likewise has seen Jean grow to the quiet, capable leader she is . . . as president of the Sophomore class ... as athletic chair¬ man ... as Superlative ... as president of the student government . . . and lastly ... as a Who’s Who. It’s her thoughtfulness ... her willingness to please ... her capa¬ bility and simplicity which have brought her these honors . . . and will bring them to her from now on. 76 JOYCE GASQUE Macon, Ga. St. Augustine, Fla. Music Education An extra violin and a persuasive mother have managed to turn Joyce into the violinist she is today. It seems as though grandfather was the proud possesser of two of the music- makers. and Mom couldn’t hear to see one of them stand idle ... so friend Gasque has been drawing the how ever since die was old enough to find a chin to tuck the fiddle under. Her senior year finds Joyce conducting an orchestra at Lanier Girl’s High . . . and teaching pupils in both violin and cello. Not bad for our Gibson Gal . . . hm? IRIS WARREN. Speech At last ... a redhead without a temper ... so say the friends of Iris . . . the innocent sophisticate! You wouldn’t think so, but beneath that slow, calm and collected air . . . runs determination and ambition . . . for Iris has a deep interest in her work. , . . And why not? . . . the gal is good! As a town student, Iris now represents her cohorts on the Student Council . . . temper or no temper! 77 SALLY VEATCH . . . . Newnan, Ga. t HELEN FARMER. Macon, Ga. Speech We doubt if the star of the “Trojan Women has ever known of the calm and quiet life of the Greek she portrayed so well. One could hardly compare her vivacious, effervescent personality to the decorum and dignity of the classic. All of which leaves us with no question as to her outstanding ability. Radio commands Helen’s immediate and future in¬ terest . . . but Kramp . . . the gal with a finger in every pic. also finds time for her many social activities as a town student ... the Junior League ... the Madamoiselle Club . . . and the interesting task of keeping several service camps • happy.

Somehow the two are so prefectly blended_The girl and her art . . . that they are as one. It’s her stage naturalness ... her dramatic and striking looks . . . her poise, the definition of glamour . . . that self-owned look ... her practicality, a willingness to start at the bottom, leaving the glamour angle to the dream¬ ers .. . that make Sally our choice for a winner. Her eyes on the stars . . . and her feet on the stage . . . Sallv Veatch. 78 ' Mma 11 Tci ter Hail, Wesleyan, thou emblem of all that is grand, The noblest, the greatest, in all our fair land; Thine ideals are honored, thy name always blest; A fountain of knowledge, the oldest and best.

THE WESLEYAN ATHLETIC ASSOCIATION The needs which a plant feels if it is to live and blossom into beautiful greenness are varied. But one of the greatest is the need for energy—energy derived from many sources to make the plant strong and lasting. So does the young plant which a Wesleyanne represents need energy. And the need is supplied by Wesleyan’s Athletic Association. Varied are the sources of energy to be found in the A.A. Early in the fall comes the colorful excitement of soccer games culminated by the championship games on Thanksgiving day. And as the year progresses, Red and White challenge Purple and White, while Gold and White engage Green and Gold in basketball and swimming contests. To supply individual needs, A.A. sponsors tennis and tournaments, interclass hockey and volleyball games, 0 shows, and faculty-student baseball games. From the firmly-rooted strength of the A.A. plant new i comes forth in the form of the Naiads and the l rcs ma . Splinters. Meanwhile, the energy sources of the entire or |“ zation are hound into one effective whole in the f° rm 0 A.A. Board. So does the Athletic Association seek to fill the needs of girl throughout her four years at Wesleyan. And c ' cn tender young plant absorbs energy to become strong and tifully formed, so do Wesleyannes, through participati their Athletic Association activities, bring new strengt beauty to themselves. 124 Eleanor Hoyt President Lou Matteson Pice-President Sally Bowen Secretary Mary Ann Roach T reasurer 125 THE WESLEYAN Y. W. C. A. The plant, newly set at Wesleyan, may he a lovely and a useful one; but only if it has sunlight. So it is with each Wesleyanne as she finds herself looking somewhere into the great blueness above for strength and help and courage to face her new life. This need is met at Wesleyan by the “Y,” which seeks to search out the very soul of the plant and feed it. There is the soft aesthetic blue of Morning Watch programs, the calm tranquility of Vesper services on Wednesday and on Sunday nights. But because it is well rounded, “Y” is to he thought of in terms of “pastries” in the halls, a comic strip party, a Christmas banquet, the inspirational speeches of Religious Emphasis Week. Throughout the year, the blue that represents “Y” touches the young Wesleyan plant: girls in blue jackets meeting Freshmen ... the crisp, cool blueness of an Easter sky with its sun rising upon a white cross on a golf course green ... the flickering blue and gold of candlelight shining upon an open Bible. Symbols and realities of Wesleyan’s “Y” are these as they work to make each student’s life more full. Thus can each Wesleyanne—each plant—look up into the blue and see the sun. 126 Jane Methvin Elizabeth Lundy Mary Alice McDougall Carolyn Clark Peggy Darby Marjorie Soulie Annette Rumph Martha Rumble Mary Frances Webb Jean Anderson Emily Britton Dorethea Jarratt Frances Stanaland Jean Turner Rebecca Shipley 127 THE Officers Martha Martin President Ixa Blair Nau Vice-President Peggy Stewart Rush Secretary Ophelia Price Treasurer Each nirl who enters Wesleyan is as a plant, young and unsteady and filled with potentialities. She finds herself staked in soil rich with tradition, but buffeted by the forces of a world that is new to her. So does the plant turn to College Government for support . . . and even as she receives strength from the organization, she gives it strength. First the young plant feels the pruning process of Freshman Orientation week ... the invigorating life of a College Government party ... the warm friendliness of the girls who wear the purple jackets. Dinner for fifteen , please!! Student Government takes a night off. 128 COLLEGE GOVERNMENT First row: Jean Henninger, Ophelia Trice, Rosalyn I.ane. Martha Martin Helene Pat” Jones, Betty Jane Keen.

As the year progresses . . . indeed, as four years pass ... the plants grow to make up the growing life of Wesleyan. At times the life seems hindering and confining. Yet that is but part of the “growing pains.” And as growth progresses and the plant takes on new green¬ ness and the blossoms of full living, it finds itself inseparable from the great College Government plant that feeds it. So does College Government—its organization, its student chapel meetings, its public address system gift, its minstrel show, its activities, and its purpose— belong to each plant. Thus is Wesleyan itself strong as the plants become one in a strong College Government. 129 mm First row: Jeanne HerritaRe, Iris Warren, I). J. Wilson . . .

Through Sophomore Council, all interested in Sophs have a chance to play an important part as a member of “V . Who could forget the welcome yell of “ Pastries!” that broke the silence of quiet hour just when we were worrying about having to sleep on such empty stomachs? Besides satisfying our appetites, the Sophs were raking in money for the projects. And playing Santa Claus to the colored children was just one of their many good deeds for the year. When food ' s most needed and it ' s time to stop gabbing and get down to work. s 135 IF FRESHMAN COMMISSION Vivid in each one of our minds is the evening we were solemnly installed in the “Y” dressed in white and holding candles. We were deeply impressed by the spirit of this ceremony and this same spirit has remained in us throughout our participation in Freshman Commission, our own special part of “Y.” With “Forward Along God’s Highwa ’ a our theme, we have endeavored to bring our enthusiasm and eagerness into all phases of campus activities. Being Santa Claus to little Negro children and going to play with the orphans are events we’ll always remember as being some of the most charming of Freshman Commission’s traditions. In this organization each Freshman has the opportunity to give growth to her spirit of fellowship and desire for a fuller life. Elizabeth Harman . President Jane McCowan. Vice-President Ann Pickens.

Through the years that she’s lived because of the problems she’s met, Wesleyan is a bigger and better place. She’s known people of all kinds—you can know them, too, by the written words left behind—you can know them for the things they’ve done— you can know them from the things you’ve heard. Just as a small part in trying to keep all this alive, the 1945 Veterropt staff offers its contribution to that long line of tradition—trying this year to make everything informal and personal and to show all the little things that are the ingredients and spice that mixed together give us Wesleyan—the total which is greater than the sum of all its parts.

Because you have possibilities I have possibilities. My effectiveness depends upon your interest and your enthusiasm. I glow with new life as you share with me your personalities. I belong to you. 1 am the W esleyan. These words express the hope and purpose of the staff for this year—to show that the Wesleyan in a real sense belongs to and is a part of every student. It is not a closed magazine for the creative few. Its pages are always open to the creative you—funny little odd thoughts that fall into poetry, startling ideas anti serious plots that develop into short stories find plays. These make the Wesleyan. Throughout the year the staff has held as a goal, a greater variety of articles such as character sketches, “I Remember” columns, hook reviews, and letters. To add color and interest to the pages irequent sketches and cartoons from the students have been used. The Wesleyan during 1944-45 has become a growing magazine with new life. This new strength came from the Conservatory with its rich supply of talent. With their continued co-operation and help, the staff looks forward to an ever broadening and worthwhile magazine.

Here all the finest voices of Wesleyan students combine in singing stirring music. With an eagerness to accomplish something worthwhile, the girls put out their best effort under the direction of Mr. Vladimir Zorin. A love of music, common to each one is the inspiring force. The Glee Club’s first appearance of the year, a Christmas concert at the Conservatory, was an outstanding event of the college year. The spring concert was equally successful. Throughout the year making trips to entertain army camps, the Glee Club gave concerts for service men. We at Wesleyan are truly proud of the fine work done by our singing stars.

The monthly meetings in the lounge are always outstandini events. Among the visiting speakers were Mr. Howard Thomas, noted artist and art department head at Agnes Scotl and Mrs. J. O’H. Sanders, president of the Atlanta Music Club.

THEATRE ARTS CLUB Newly organized this year, the Theatre Art Cluh is made up of members of the Speech Department. Although extremely young when compared with the other organi¬ zations a t the Conservatory, it is the wish of the club to function as thoroughly as the others on campus. The purpose is to discuss news of the dramatic world and keep abreast of current Broadway plays. Programs are planned once a month for the enjoyment of the entire student body.

Those honored by membership are chosen for their outstanding literary achievement in writing prose and poetry. Membership in the Scribes constitutes the most distinctive honor to be awarded in the field of creativity in writing on the Wesleyan Campus. Through the year Scribes have contributed their work to the H ' atchtouer and the Wesleyan publications and prepare to present their annual issue of the Wesleyan in the Spring. FOURTH ESTATE Tracy Horton P resident To Create is to live” ' Hie Fourth Estate is an organization which keeps alive the interest in creative writing on the campus. Members of the club have classes in Journalism and high averages in their work. Informal meetings have been held from time to time at which new trends in Journalistic work are discussed. An outstanding feature of the year was a movie on ' Fhe Making of a Newspaper furnished by the Macon Telegraph. The Fourth Estate w’as formed late in 1943 with the hope that their interest and enthusiasm in creative writing would stimulate other students to high achievements in this field. 155 THE INTERNATIONAL RELATIONS CLUB The International Relations Club is an organization to promote the understanding and friendship of college students towards all nations. I he activities of the group center around the study of world affairs and problems which they are facing today and must solve tomorrow in their future role as citizens. With these aims in mind the outstanding pro¬ grams of the club have been an address on India by Dr. Isabella Thoburn and one entitled the State of War, illustrated with pictographs, by Miss Virginia Carlton. The Wesleyan Club is a member of the Georgia Conference of International Relations Clubs and is affiliated with the Carnegie Endowment for World Peace.

Las Americas Unidas Sociedads was organized in 1944 by a group of Freshmen who are interested in Latin-American good-will. It has grown rapidly and today many Wesleyannes are learning about the South American’s attitude toward the American’s of the North, Juan and Juanita South America’s customs, ideals, and education. Interesting meetings, including short movies of our neighboring coun¬ tries, discussions of these countries, lectures on their leaders by faculty advisers, and the receiving of practical knowledge of South American food by samples of Cuban coffee, Guava Paste, and Spanish Cookies have all built up a firmer understanding between Wesleyan students and their counterparts under the Southern Cross. Miss Doroth Thom is the faculty adviser. Lillian Cazin President - FRENCH CLUB To learn things that are not in French textbooks, the customs, the clothes, and the food of that old romantic country is the purpose of the French Club of Wesleyan. Through short talks, given in French by its members, by participating in French plays, and by learning folk songs, the members of this club discover the culture of this most important country. To be a member a student must he a member of the intermediate or advanced French classes, and have a more than academic interest in France and the French people as the attendance is voluntary. Miss Martha Kern is the faculty adviser.

After walking to the underpass, even the smell of scrambled eggs seems good as they fall exhausted into their chairs at the breakfast table. Perhaps you 11 set these same girls sloshing through the mud in the woods on their wa to the cabin for one of those memorable camping trips. Not even a little rain daunts their high spirits. Dr. Forman, the founder of the club, often leads afternoon hikes through new and fascinating trails. These organized hikes help the girls get their two hundred miles of walking which entitles them to their prized “W s. Dr. Henry Chandi.ee Forman Sponsor % SAINT CECELIA MUSIC GUILD For the student who loves music, either to listen to it, to sing it, or to play it, the Saint Cecelia Music Guild opens new vistas. The Guild promotes a deeper knowledge and a keener understanding of music through talks given by outstanding members of the faculty and guests from town. Membership is divided into three classes; active, associate, and honorary, and is obtained by vote of the club. Mrs. Doris O. Jelks is the adviser. .

The monthly gatherings of intermediate and advanced Spanish students promote an interest in Spanish and Spanish- American people, their language and their customs. After hearing programs conducted in Spanish about the economic and social life, literature, art and modes of the “Manana” people, the club members delight in haltingly expressing themselves in El Espanol. The low buzz of conversation has that distinct Spanish flavor, though perhaps the speaking is not as fluent as the ordinary college chatter. At these meetings the girls have the opportunity to hear the language in reports given by various members and to have a try at informal conversation in preparation for those trips planned to the good-neighbor countries and the homeland. 163 NAIADS Winifred Bosch President Swimming at night from eleven till one—wet hair blowing in the wind— pacts not to roll up their hair—wearing bathing suits to class —Jantzen girl pins—All of this is reminiscent of the newest and gayest of. student clubs, The Naiads. The Naiads, composed of swimmers interested in form and rhythmical swimming, was organized late in 1943. They have pre¬ sented several aquacades displaying graceful form and beautv in Wesleyan’s indoor pool under the direction of Miss Alice Bicknell. In December they entertained with a Christmas aquacade portray¬ ing the spirit of Christmas with dancing toys from Santa s bag. Later in the year they presented a colorful Spring aquacade.

TOWN GIRLS CLUB The Day Students have pone through a Metamorphosis since last year. Our drah little room has been transformed into a “thing of beauty and a joy forever.” Thanks to the generous endowment of Mr. Walter Dannenburg and to the artistic decorating of Mrs. C. C. Hinton we now enjoy all the comforts of home with gay Chinese red draperies, swanky Venetian blinds, and cozy sofa and chairs. This year Day Student? have been active on the soccer and hockey fields, in the Glee Club, Crucible Club and all other campus organi¬ zations. We also have specialized in bull sessions and trips to the Pharm. And our Christmas party has become a tradition. We strive to make the most of our limited time on the campus; for when night comes each Day Student has gone home, but always she carries Wesleyan in her heart.

CRUCIBLE CLUB The Crucible Club is an organization that keeps impressing people around Wesleyan with the fact that science is quite an important and interesting branch of knowledge. Majors in chemistry, biology, math., psychology and students who take advanced home economics are invited to be members. Each of these departments has a turn in being in charge of a monthly meeting and a variety of interesting programs were given during the year. Some of the speakers were Dr. Keeler, Dr. Otis Knight of Mercer University and Miss Steel from the home economics department of the Georgia Power Company. The Leon P. Smith Award is a sort of Wesleyan Nobel Prize. Fifty dollars is given each year by the Crucible Club to the student who submits the most worthwhile paper on some research problem done aside from regular class work. To raise money for the award, this year club members sold coffee and doughnuts at the Thanksgiving soccer games and ordered Christ¬ mas cards for Wesleyannes. Virginia Harris President 166 VESPER CHOIR A hush comes over the chapel audience as our esper Choir starts its opening hymn, bringing a spirit of worship and beauty to the chapel gatherings In the early morning coldness of I hanksgiving the strains of “Come Ye Faithful” drift to the remotest dormitory room. Throughout the candle light at Christmas, carols bring the very spirit of the season to our hearts. Later the pulsing rhythm of Negro spirituals set our feet to tapping. Glad hallelujahs at Faster sunrise on the hill add depth to our service. Wherever this group meets to sing, there is always joy in singing; this is Wesleyan’s Y ' esper Choir.

Phi Delta Phi is Wesleyan’s honor society, and to be a member is to have received the highest academic honor that can come to a Wesleyan student. Additional members will be elected to Phi Delta Phi at graduation. Their pictures will appear in the 1946 Veterroit.
