nu is ie ea mee! tae Ns a = eae d 7) Hales NIKE WHEATON COLLEGE NORTON - MASSACHUSETTS MK Bee: Senoninsendiicnsinnceeiinaniicsn DEDICATION of the activities of the gods and goddesses Calm authority in the physics classroom, sweeping revealer of Urania’s secrets in the observatory, impatient walk and bobbing beard on campus—that is Wheaton’s Dr. Shook, who has watched her grow from Seminary to College. Of all her mortal in- habitants he is the closest in understanding of ancient myth, and so she dedicates this work to him in gratitude that before leaving her, he has helped to set the telescope and observe the habits of those Parnassian dwellers. i Lp 4 = Ba Se = = Diana blows her ivory horn and warns the frolicking stars To still their crystallinic shouts, that gods above May bend their ivyed heads, and straining through the mists Entombing each vast heavenly sphere, may sight this plot Of happy green which Fortune in expansive mood Hath blessed with Hebe, gayest spirit of her band, The child of mirth, who bears the shining cup of youth And holding aloft its leaping flame, guides us to truth, To joy, to knowledge pure; Therefore, O dwellers ethereal Of golden clouds and pearl-grey mists, leave your merry Elysian rolicks. Inspect instead this mortal site Which Hebe fair governs in your Parnassian plan. . . The breath of the gods is felt on every pinnacle and reflects our every mood. Page ten ee Ce ee 16608 pian Dear Classmates: ND SO men stopped telling stories and began to seek causes and facts.” This sentence commonly marks the point in a course at which you closed the age of mythology and en- tered upon the age of mature, objective scholarship. But while the causes and facts make up the clearest record of a bygone period, the life and spirit are often best preserved by the story. Acting as an instrument of the gods, therefore, the editorial staff of Nrke has immortalized your days at Wheaton within a framework of mythology. You may well soon forget the statistical description of your college career, but the things that made your campus years will surely come alive again whenever you turn the pages of this book. May they all take on added lustre with the passage of time! Very sincerely yours, A. Howard Meneely DEAN BARKER MISS LITTLEFIELD MISS NOYES Page twelve The administration keeps order in our little Olympus. In that simple red-brick hall we find Dr. Meneely, a modern Zeus, over- seeing the process. Dean Barker untangles all the myriad problems of our stately in- habitants, while Miss Littlefield pays special attention to the often-confused probationers of the class of ’LI. Miss Townsend reviews all applications for Olympian living quarters and thunderboltian bills are hurled at us from the Bursar’s office. More heavenly things—week-end permissions — are under the care of Miss Ross. MISS DUNKLE MIlS TOWNSEND Down in the glimmering depths, Mrs. Pratt and her nymphs dispense the candy, books, and stationery so essential to the scholastic life. Mail that brings ungoddessly squeals is delivered in this underworld and off in one corner is Mr. Fillmore’s cave where he guards the rare elixers which keep our Olympic facades well-polished. Back in the upper climes—oh, those ungodly problems of the Information office which copes with late pers, telegrams, and flowers. How often it must be wished we'd part for more Elysian fields. now Page fourteen If Freud could see them FACULTY What pleasure to the Gods must be the sight of our fine faculty. What flattery in imitation though by human limitation. “Pss Pssyche,”’ whispers Mr. Austin, bearing the spirit high. Bearded Dr. Shook carefully illustrates that the physical world is pretty straight- forward. Mr. Stein, always late, advises, “If you develop this symptom come and see me.” Miss Hill has a wheee of a time with her own collo- quialisms. “If that’s the romantic element, I can forgive it,” remarks Mr. Earle as a plane buzzes overhead. Ever the scientific spirit Mr. Shipley suffixes his remarks with, “Don’t put all your faith in this, what I say may be wrong.” The voice that charms, is it Cary Grant or Mr. Knapton? Is it lively and vigorous symbolism that makes Mrs. Boas open the window when she marks papers? On over the campus scan Godly eyes catching a bit of conversation here and there to sketch the professorial temperament. Community spirit reigns as Doctor Lange, very college, passes the potato chips taking part in every worthy activity. At Marty’s Miss Vickeray and Miss Schonbar ask “How many are sitting at this table?”” The former finding a glass of Mull Cider just the thing after a walk along the beach, the latter noting that the Dodgers are out for spring practice puns, “Got a butt I can bum?” Miss Metzger, Shoulders McGinnis, and Mr. Gurwitz (led by his cigarette holder) are En Marche The gentleman on the left is Mary Ellen Chase En Marche encore Swing it! seen to rush out for a cigarette after a class. Mr. Creighton tells music App. that he prefers Bessie Smith to Nellie Lecher, but warns not to trust anyone who is MAD about Beethoven. Snatches of conversation run together and are lost.in the atmosphere below. Mr. Sharp looking up from his Thackeray, “Really Miss X wouldn’t you find it convenient to major in some field other than English?” Or Miss Burlingame, “Are you having trouble at home?” Miss Marshall, ‘Ethyl Alcohol is almost 200 proof.” Mrs. Korsch, ““Are my seams straight,” Mr. G. “I do my thinking in bed,”’ Cressey, “Am I urban or rural?” Miss Jennings starts, the bell has rung. Dr. Sprague, “The worst thing for a man would be to be a woman.” Miss Okie, ‘““Breathe—2, 3, 4, breathe—2, 3, 4.” Page fifteen CLASSROOMS Morpheus or Lucipher? From the halls of Mary Lyon to the nooks of Stanton basement there is a constant battle twixt these two for classroom domination. Many an excited professor has winced at the subtle snores from the back row; many a timid teacher has refereed for the enthusiasts of the first row. As the grey dawn seeps through the cracks of the zoology laboratory, clear-eyed freshmen eagerly probe their homarus Americanus, search- ing for Truth. (Thus sayeth the Wheaton College catalogue.) What better background for a love letter than the aroma of formaldehyde? Fret no more professors! Your science B1 classes are not shaking their heads to contradict; they are merely getting into the swing of the tennis matches. There is nothing like a good map to clarify a history lecture. And then there are those in Mary Lyon 7. It is not that they are small; it is not that they are illegible; the main difficulty lies in their lack of boundary lines. Even the Spartans might have been daunted by our frigid, lightless halls of learning. However, to really live, we must suffer! Page sixteen Come blustery December mornings, the back- to-nature devotees of our faculty begin the morn- ing with a smile, a sprint, and an open window. At least the floors have their dust to keep them warm! Terpsichore, come aid us! Instill us with your grace! No matter how we aspire, we always ex- pire. Pity poor Plimpton! Her very foundations will always groan their protests against thunder- ous attempts at dance. Her stage and doors bear scars, evidence of those who leap too far. Her floors glow with cleanliness and glower with con- tempt for our dirty feet. From dancers to dust- mops! It must be quite a shock to innocent observers when a bevy of bodies comes tumbling from the windows of Mary Lyon. This is not a suicide squad, but only eager scholars on the way to another class. In spring, Apollo’s fans crowd the classroom windows, thrusting out pale extremities in an effort to soak up vitamin D. Dr. Sprague cannot put enough emphasis on the place of the sun- worshippers in our society. But— Despite our gripes and groans and shivers, We love these rooms, and thank the givers. Page seventeen THE COLE MEMORIAL CHAPEL Page eighteen TRADITIONS Mythology is a collection of the traditions in which a people embody their beliefs concerning their origins and heroes. The traditions of Wheaton are hardly myths, but there is something of the same solemnity found in the celebrations of the ancient Greeks and Romans. The stately procession of Founders’ Day would hold Caesar Augustus himself in awe, as white-clad under- classmen lead the black-robed seniors and faculty around the verdant campus, with the deep tones of the organ welling from the chapel. Founders’ Day depends upon Eliza Bayliss Wheaton for its heroic origins. CA’s annual Candlelight service depends upon the inspiration and spiritual realiza- tion of mankind in general, of the juniors and their freshman sisters in particular. On a soft fall night Diana may peer down from her place in the sky and peek through the chapel windows as a host of young women carefully light their candles from the great flame of truth, and then walk through the dusk to Peacock Pond where myriad lights are set afloat to the singing of hymns. Page nineteen YE GODS! AND GODDESSES Wheaton’s Sophomore Venus, Henrietta Hop- per, presides over our annual spring festival. The pageantry of the royal procession from the library steps to the dimple green is breathtakingly lovely. The memorable event of the afternoon is the crowning of the queen. From her throne, she applauds the antics of the jester, the graceful Maypole dancers, and the musicians. The weaving of the Maypole streamers ends a glorious ritual. NIKE At first we felt but shadows small and wished Our swift return to realms of peace, half-vague, Where laughter, music, nectar sweet had ruled With Jove in airy court, touched o’er with stars; But plucked by Prometheus from that bliss, flung down Through space, to earth we came, from earth we grew, © And on a round and crusty globe we found Our home on Dimple small, near sparkling pond Which we here praise and hail with love; for here Swift-snaring ’wareness enveloped our minds with proof Of heavens high, horizons wide, and on The clear, sharp, frosty nights, we raised our eyes To gaze upon the milk-white way whose stairs Rose tier on tier to reach the topmost crest Of grave Olympus; on its heights, her hand Outstretched, with smiling pride, our Nike stood, 4 Her wings, unfurl’d, shot rays of strength, her eyes, Pearl-grey, flash’'d thundering bolts of wisdom clear, With steel-bound bridle sent Pegasus whose reins We all part guide; and now, o’er striving years Upon his winged back, the summit we tred _ And Vict’ry’s welcome meet; her hand sweeps wide, Our gaze, in following, surveys the earth.... “There buds the promise of celestial worth!” _ | ; “7 re srt THE GREEN YEAR Page twenty-four THE ROSY YEAR Page twenty-five THE PURPLE YEAR HE GOLDEN YEAR ELIZABETH TRACY ARNOLD West Barrington, R.

Chemistry Page fifty-two MALY As ’48 draws to a close, we look back to the first time when as Freshmen we said, ‘‘Class of 48” and frantically tried to learn the Wheaton Hymn before some pitiless Sophomore demanded the price of our ignorance. The years of friendship have slipped by and blended into one happy spirit. Maybe it’s the spirit of this last year that means the most, trying to keep up with everything, jam everything in, pile the kinship of all four years into one before we reach the days when we'll be job hunting and living in little apartments. This year, when, donning caps and gowns for that first Chapel, we saw class president, Mitzie Mitchell, congratulate the other officers, vice president, Jean Bricker; treasurer, Ginny Hunt; secretary, M. E. Shreve; and song leader, Katie Schlegel; brought us out with a cheering start. That was a heyday for snapshot sprees. Then the duties of the year came thick and fast. Bev Yeaple, Lala Earle, Jean Sullivan, Pris Dattman, Betsy Hering, Mel Avery and Ann Nelson took on the responsibilities of house chair- men. Shirley Johnson led the College Government Association as president through a fine year with Joyce Tyler as head of the newly organized Coordinating Committee. Vodvil was the best yet with Kiki Kern, chairman of Entertainments, to organize it with her wit and enthusiasm. Cici perked up the social calendar and supervised the dance concert. Izzie led AA to greater heights in intercollegiate conferences. Duffy and Mary Ren- wick really kept News a going concern. Jackie Coughlin found her duties as DA president a pleasure with this year’s top productions as did Audrey Farrow, president of Choir. The class boasts six Phi Betes, Audrey MacLeod Mel Avery, Evelyn Masi, Trudy Campbell, M. E. Shreve, and Lala Earle; also I.R.C. Scholar, Jan Maul, and Geneva Group, Marty Whitcomb, Betsy Brown, Jean Williams, and Mary Stearns. The triumph of the Hockey team was holding the Juniors to a tie and the Faculty-Senior basketball game brought no shame to any of the bediapered contestants. Seniors all, we fell into every activity from ushering in Chapel to step singing, the senior beer picnic, the house party at the Cape, to seminars and generals. A real highlight of the year was the warm hospitality and informal atmosphere of dinner at the Meneely’s. With the last dance of the Prom, the last hand- shake over a diploma, the last roll of the hoop, we wrap the daisy chain around Hebe and depart at last to the wide, wide world. M. Shreve, V. Hunt, M. Mitchell, K. Schlegel, J. Bricker Page fifty-three NK Once upon a time we were freshmen. Our rooms were bare until we caught on to bulletin boards, fuzzy rugs, and hassocks. We sat on sacred libe steps and insulted seniors by asking where their freshman signs were. We took the wrong paths to Emerson and Everett and won- dered why college only served desserts. We worked and labored laboriously on learning in- significant facts, ignoring the important trends. We wondered when we would find time to wash that drawer full of soiled socks. We tried to ‘postpone trips to the library because it was an unlearned maze to us. We were a bright class, they said, and we shuddered at what we thought was deception. It didn’t take us long to develop a taste for Marty’s frappes and the Inn’s ‘Wheaton Specials.” We hailed the debut of the drugstore and the reopening of Bill’s. At Christmas our parents viewed ten pounds of extra corpulence. As the weeks went by we found the green paling. Slowly we were making a place for our- selves. Barbie, with form and accuracy had won the college tennis tournament. President Schaby took command with the aid of Bea, Mac, Kay, and Barbie. We took pride in the trim and prize- winning horsewomen, Sue and Watson, With Janie’s flicks, Sim’s hits, and Irene’s dribbles, we showed impassable strength on the hockey field. The athletic cup was ours! Fickett headlighted us in Taming.of the Shrew. Rushlight joined us CLASS OFFICERS: Presiden tic. hte a J. Merritt Mice President.4:2-4p een Hi. J.

Murphy in admiration of Angie’s polished style and was soon to recognize Mary Lynch’s symbolic play. We all put our finger in the pot and thrilled at being part of worthwhile organizations. We started to voice our opinions, to see our words in News. The successful fight for a modern art center and a Negro scholarship made us feel the importance of college in democratic living. Sophomore year found us so sophomoric. We knew our way around and impressed the fresh- men with that fact. We tried to instill respect for our undignified dignity. Skip lead the third- degree administration with a twinkle in her eye, surprising all of us with her austerity, Schaby became our C.G.A. secretary; her signature be- came known on those little white slips. Bea took the wand in hand as president, with Lloydie, Kay, Joy and Barbie assisting. The tennis cup had Barbie’s name engraved for the second year, while Janie and Bea represented the class of ’49 on the all-college hockey team. In athletic events the name of the sophomore class was threatening —we won the cup for the second year. Kathie, Page fifty-six with her tinge of grey and histrionic ability, made the role of Mrs. Webb lovable to all. Weezie kept on cackling and having innumer- able birthdays while Jean Evans upheld the class’ intellectual reputation by heading the dean’s list. Ootsie became our serene queen with Birdie and Sue as sparkling and startling attendants. Marguerita and Skip left for a year of contin- ental living. Social life had improved. Jane’s ring dazzled and inspired us all. This year we have been juniors, true upper- classmen. We were assured of the fact late in the summer when we received the addresses of our freshmen sisters. This time we were sympa- thetic and understanding. Joy and Seat breezed in with a cosmopolitan air to become our president and vice president; we could now boast of polylinguists. Murph, Angie, and Mary Lynch helped to lead the parade. We decided on our majors and began to settle back on a more meaningful foundation. Barbie and tennis became synonymous... a successful hockey season... the organization of the Wee-tones . . . fra- ternity pins flourished . . . social life had reached a peak. Pat and Fifi must have worked overtime last summer getting “him” to say “yes”. Hendy couldn’t stand the distance. Birdie and Marilyn spent the reading period staring at their rings. Cautious Bey waited until after exams to be crowned. Liberal rules were passed to cope with this gayer life. We hear magical sounds trumpeting our senior year. We are getting our caps and gowns ready now for the final pageant. Let us make the most of 1949. Page fifty-seven It would seem that the gods smiled upon the class of 1950 this year, for the old saying that the sophomore year is the hardest lost a lot of its meaning for us. The inevitable hurdles of stiffer courses, increased activities, and greater responsibilities were overcome with a minimum of pain. Maybe it was just that we were growing up to our responsibilities, leaving behind that pseudo-sophistication we thought we had to maintain freshman year. We had discovered fin- ally the secret of finding time to play a larger part in campus life. Sophomores were seen in numbers in all kinds of college activities, with some of us now playing starring roles. We were happy, and rather proud to see the talents of many more of us developed and more widely expressed. The goddess of good judgment must really have been behind us when we chose our own demi-goddesses . . . Ginny did a wonderful job keeping the class in the favor of the gods with Mary, Marilyn, and Bobbie standing behind her. As our own special muse, Beth kept us right in tune through the year. If we had stopped to consider that sophomore comes from the Greek words sophos, wise, and moros, foolish, we might have anticipated some Page fifty-eight Pres.—V. Pennell Vice Pres—M. Grimley Secretary—B. Smith Treasurer—M. Bliss Song Leader—B. Bradt of our actions, for our sophomore year was a wonderful mixture of the wise and the foolish, the serious and the funny, work and play. When we came back to Wheaton in the Fall, as sophomores no longer on the lowest rung of the ladder, we had a wonderful time feeling important all during the long-awaited Freshman Week. Not that we had any malice in us, but it was nice to see someone else struggling with the sandwich sign, and attending all her roommate’s- classes. When the week was over we were glad to leave behind the role of the villain when we made a truce by giving our freshman sisters a party. . As time went on, we admiringly watched Carolyn and Hatti step forth to loud applause in the two versions of Antigone. The muses also must have inspired Mary Lou and Margie as they shone in Overtones. But there was a chance for all of us, even those among us not blessed with divine inspiration, to let ourselves go and don the theatrical garb when Christmas-time and Mummers rolled around. Leading the procession was our T.G., as a perfect Master of Revels, and many of us cavorted and pranced through the evening. On the romantic side, came Valentine’s night and of course we chose that ideal time for our Sophomore Hop. The Yale Collegians, red Valen- tines, and cupids transformed Plimpton into our own little heaven on earth, and for a time each of us was a goddess with her own special god. Page sixty The announcement of the dean’s list showed that we were not lacking in brains, either. Mary, our goddess of wisdom, and her sizeable court of sages made us all proud. Our college career was almost half over when we received our class rings, and we proudly dis- played them. For others of us there was the exciting addition of pins or diamonds. In the spring the traditional activities of the Sophomore class kept us all very busy. We were very excited when the seniors chose the member of our class who would be most pleasing to the gods, and she was crowned Queen amid all the festivities and fanfare of May Day. On May first, early in the morning we left baskets of flowers for our senior sisters as a token of our appreciation for the help they had given us when we were green and slightly scared freshmen, and as an indication that we were now nearing the time when we, as juniors, would assume toward an incoming class, the same role that they had played with such success toward us. For the mid-century class had reached the important mid-way mark in its college career ... 80 on to the Junior class. In athletics, our big star was Carol Soliday, swimmer extraordinary. Even Neptune looks to his laurels whenever Carol is in the field. Having finally established herself as one of the college’s best aquamaids in our freshman year, Carol went on to even greater achievements as a sophomore with a fine group of teammates backing her up. Our class was well represented in other athletic activities from ping-pong to hockey. Shurt took first honors among us in basketball while Muff, Em, and many others upheld the class honor in tennis. Mary and Barbie made up the class bad- minton team. Quite a few sophomores took a major interest in riding, and rode with the college team in the meet with House in the Pines. Page sixty-one Page sixty-two The class of 1951 was washed up on the shores of Norton last September 16, in much the same manner as the noble wanderer Ulysses landed on Circe’s isle. Indeed, the perils and confusion of the first few weeks closely resembled the ad- ventures of that voyager. Sirens in the form of upper classmen wooed us with honeyed words and then put us to work making beds. Marty’s beckoned, promising for- getfulness although we didn’t eat lotuses. Later the Scylla and Charybdis of exams nearly caught us in their twining depths, but we escaped their toils and landed safely. ec a we Re we RR | cpp apen oe eae SS ae Now with Nebo, Smithy, Shirley, Wedge and Sue to tie up the mocking winds in the bag of efficiency, there is a calm voyage ahead to that blissful state of being sophomores. Page sixty-three President Shirley Johnson Secretary Nancy Whitelaw Vice Pres. Barbara Holden Treasurer Amy Wright COLLEGE GOVERNMENT ASSOCIATION The goddesses who wage war with old-fash- ioned regulations and who maintain peace and order in the student body hold their council meetings in the CGA room on Monday nights. The Minerva under whose guidance all this comes about is Shirley, and her assistants, Barbie, Nancy, and Amy act as indispensable councillors. This year, CGA has effected some almost super-human changes in its constitution. Saturday night late privileges are unlimited to upperclassmen, and freshmen have their share of the increase too. Week ends can last longer because of the 11:15 curfew for girls who are out of Norton on Sunday. Room choosing has been changed so that the upper classes really have their choice of rooms and dorms, and so that the quota system will be more workable. Finally, changes in the nomination and election systems make them more efficient and fair. CGA cabinet, council, and board are those quietly busy groups of god- desses who, with the four officers as a nucleus, keep the secular affairs of the college on an even keel. A pinch of incense to them! CHRISTIAN ASSOCIATION Surely the gods look with favor on the tire- lessly quiet efforts of CA. By its aid Wheaton’s helping hand is extended around the world in the form of World Fellowship donations, ‘““Care”’ packages, and clothes drives while practical aid is offered on campus to change the Lost to Found. School projects and play groups help in the recreation of Norton’s youngsters. Norton and Sturdy schools as well as the Brownie and Girl Scout troops are aided by a small but active group of students who have encouraged CA to sponsor a new gym class featuring teaching methods of games and rhythms for grammar- school tots. CA’s second great purpose is to achieve a unity of thought by increasing the understanding among different points of view. To heighten our knowledge and realization of the meaning of the Christian faith in the modern world, the Wor- ship committee arranged for study groups, vesper and communion services. Inter-race-Inter-faith groups discussed the similarities, differences, and consequences of the guiding beliefs of the world’s people.

Heller DRAMATIC ASSOCIATION Always willing to cooperate, even with the gods, Wheaton’s Dramatic Association proceeded to transform the gym from a cheerfully athletic basketball court to a dignified Greek theatre, fit to delight Sophocles himself. Gleaming white columns sprouted upon a hitherto cluttered stage which found to its amazement that it had grown out into the midst of the audience—just DA’s Page seventy way of increasing that intimate Greek atmos- phere. Under the tutelage of Miss Pat Oakie, the stage crews covered the last vestiges of basket and dart boards with a classic frieze and finished the metamorphosis by creating brooding marble steps out of black cloth, a few boards, and some nails. So the stage was set for the fall production of Antigone in which the pride of Wheaton emoted with that of Rhode Island State College, the results being not only classically and beauti- fully tragic, but quite “terrific” as well. The sensitive direction of Miss Jean McKee empha- sized the contrast between the stunning drama of Sophocles and the modern psychological con- flict in the version of Jean Anoulih. An impres- sive revival of the classic atmosphere. The arena style of production was carried on in a repeat performance of the one-act play Overtones which caused as much interested com- ment at its two performances as last year. But versatility being the spice of any Thespian’s life, the spring players enthusiastically slipped the ancient traces and plunged into the squalling, scratching, and needling of The Women. Gone the white columns, gone the frieze, fled the men; Jove held his head and Juno chortled while thirty-four females of the species cavorted about the modern sets evoking shouts of laughter and, every once in a while, a startling tear. Jove found satisfaction, though, when Apollo showed him the care lavished on staging and direction which made May Day a thing of beauty and Mummers a joy forever. The greatest praise must be be- stowed upon DA for emphasizing the importance of those laboring costumers, painters, curtain- hangers, and carpenters who are as much a main- stay of any production as the actors, the only difference being in their relation to the curtain. ATHELETIC ASSOCIATION With the dawn of the 1947-48 year came the dawn of one of the most successful years for the Athletic Association. Full of ideas from attend- ing two conferences last year, Prexy Iz intro- duced new spark into the organization and was aided by a noble board in carrying out the year’s program. A new A.A. brainstorm was the Faculty- Senior swimming meet which “Philips” managed and carried out to perfection. A packed gallery witnessed the spectacle that is bound to become a Wheaton tradition. Barrie led all hockey aspirants to a Sports Day in Boston and returned with a bag full of victories. A similar occasion was held for basket- ball, where again, the blue and white made a good impression. The A.A. Constitution was recreated and rewritten by Sim and her committee who met at frequent intervals in Miss White’s room amid coffee pots and coffee cups. After many altera- tions and “rich” ideas that had to be left out, the new constitution finally became law. A.A.’s main project for the year came at the end of February when sixty faculty and students spent a week end here setting up a regional organization of the A.F.C.W. Janie took care of the planning and details for this conference and all who attended enjoyed the Wheaton hos- pitality. Ginny Vogt served another of her famous teas. President S040 ae as 2k. Shale I.

RIDING MEET eT STS Morpheus unwound his ;) arms with distressing rapidi- ‘ ty and cast the victims into the brisk autumn air. At an ungodly hour the riders of _—_- ’ Wheaton went abroad to brave the whims of Pegasus. Lil’ Cush and Missy coralled the stragglers and dragged Donna to the stable. With Captain Jean MacDill roaring orders from the ringside, the drill was whipped into shape. Precision, timing, pace, and teamwork were keynotes to the under- taking and a hearty “Pivooot!” from Watts and Big Cush, head of riding spurred them on. After prolonged anticipation, the day of Wheaton vs. House-in-the-Pines dawned without the grace of Appollo. Through the mist, the spectators saw Sue Williams on Ginger trot off with Blue Ribbon honors for Wheaton. Cush and Jean took the pair class on the greys to round off their senior year, and the panting drill team looked forward to a bigger and better 1948. DANCE GROUP Greece can’t boast superiority over Wheaton when it comes to dance. We manage to surpass the golden isle in choice of material and wider range. And if Terpsichore, dance’s muse, can’t comprehend the distinctions of modern technique or the beat of boogie, Dance Group can point with pride to its star exponent of Greek dance (wet drapery and all), Bobby Kellner. Page seventy-four President C. Kuehnle Dance Group concentrates on dance as an art form. This year it undertook two very worth- while projects for its March concert: Virgil Thompson’s The Plow That Broke the Plains and Khachaturian’s Masquerade. The Plow That Broke the Plains is a serious pictorial history of the grasslands of the middle west. Choreography for this was a serious but thrilling task of inter- preting nature’s supremacy over man in move- ment. Differing in mood was Masquerade which had the gaiety and color of the circus with a stark undertone of the reality of circus backstage life. Choreography for all the dances was done by the group with Head of Dance, Cici Kuehnle, adding the last artistic touches. TRITONS Triton raised his conch shell to his lips and blew to calm the waves. Neptune summoned forth shapely Nereids and sprinkled visible colour upon the surface of the sparkling pool. A rainbow rhapsody, a symposium of hue on rhythm. Sim, Triton head, stood in odd raiment, so out of tune in its baggy blue. Wheaton tank suits, Tritons, and Tritonettes were in colorful formation for the spring aquacade. The rhythmic swimming followed a central core of color and water nymphs stroked to the tune of “St. Louis Blues”, “Black and Tan’’, “Mood Indigo’, ““That Old Black Magic”, and “Cherry”. Each forma- tion had been planned and directed entirely by group heads, including Ootsie Hopper (Triton secretary), Rube Watson, Fifi Richardson, Flip Phillips (head of swimming), and Barbie Bigelow (head of Tritonettes). As lights played across the water, the audience thrilled to precision swimming, floating forma- tions, and combinations of aquatic acrobatics. Pair swimming was an added attraction and the finale brought the aquacade to a shimmering close. President of Tritons....... Treasurer........... Mie Mics okt President of Tritonettes News Staff NEWS With the aid of Duffy and Mary, Hermes keeps the college communications crackling, send- ing out sparks of news from that cubby-hole in SAB via the winged feet of Griff, Janie, and “Wheeze.” He snaps the whip over those trem- bling reporters who sneak up to the assignment sheet . . . Oh, no, it couldn’t be true—not with two term papers and an economics exam on Auiesday. pe. For Duffy and Mary Hermes has a larger assignment. He demands finding out what’s to happen before it happens; he demands sitting up in News room night after night; he demands establishing a dignified policy that won’t arouse hard feeling, and sticking to it. To most people, News means keeping them up to date on those Yellow Parlor speakers they missed, on which fortunate alumna got married last month, on who chatted in chapel that morn- ing it was too cold to get up. It gives them a happy feeling to find something in their mail boxes on Saturday morn. And for any serious issue-rousing, News is their megaphone. Press Board Page seventy-six Margaret Duffy, Editor Of News PRESSBOARD Here is Wheaton’s own corps of winged mes- sengers who make the other world aware of our activities great and small. Through their constant efforts Wheaton’s Riding Team was put on dis- play in the Sunday Boston Herald’s Rotogravure in November and the chief news photographer of the Boston office of A.P. came to take a series of pictures of the nursery school in February. With more newspapers represented and a larger group of conscientious student reporters, Wheaton life is becoming familiar reading in wider areas of the country. NIKE One day last spring Janet was called upon to make a book, a record of Wheaton for the college year ’47-’48 in tribute to the Nike of this year’s graduating class. She chose Angela as her girl Friday and together they called upon the gods of Wisdom, Love and Friendship, and of rollicking joyous mirth to show them the way to make such a volume. Finding that the gods still help only those who help themselves they called upon Miss Augur for wise counsel and upon Gay for the business of the venture. Clegg brought the aid of modern advertising and Jackie and Sperry supervised the photography. Marion touched it with her artist’s brush to give it beauty. Kathy gave it poetry and recorded the things which came to pass as the year went on. To pattern our affairs after the most godly is ambitious, but to see ourselves in their eyes has shown human graces which even they must envy. Here is our humble picture of Wheaton 48. We give it to you to keep. Rushlight Staff Nike Staff RUSHLIGHT Upon descending to the verdant patch of earth whereon our Wheaton College rests, the visitant immediately recognizes that good literature, whether of Thalia or Calliope, flourishes even to- day. Evidence lies in the two issues of Rushlight, now enlarged into two-column pages with newly- designed covers. With the able assistance of Joyce Merrick, Barbara Kellner, and Pat Wilder, Editor Any Wright has collected articles, stories, and poems, editing and compiling them into a publication capable of making any Greek god acknowledge and praise it as a manifestation of literary skill and taste of great merit. J. Maul IRC Scholar INTERNATIONAL RELATIONS CLUB Mercury, with his flair for message-carrying, would enjoy attending the weekly current events discussions where students learn of world prob- lems and are informed by faculty and foreign students of life abroad—all under the tutelage of the very active Jo Dingwell, Carley Barber, Janet Maul, Jean Williams, and Dot King. In FRENCH CLUB The “shady lady from Paris” is Consuelo Eames, able president of French Club, sponsor of all those French conversation tables, teas, and lectures. A French play (!) performed by mem- bers of the organization was the most exciting prospect held out to joiners of the year’s activi- ties. With study abroad now possible, French Club has an ever-more active role to play at Wheaton. addition to furthering international solidarity, the International Relations Club raised the sum of $400 for its Scholarship fund by means of a dinner raffle, bridge party, poverty dinner, spring fashion show, and in conjunction with World Fellowship, an auction of faculty as waiters! ART CLUB The gods of Greece will not be disappointed when they find that Wheaton is a true art lover. Apollo may find reassurance in the Art Club where Andre Luce holds out the pallet to all color enthusiasts (with enough B’s). Lectures and symposiums are the main activities of Art Club, and help to keep Wheaton old-master conscious. M. Snelling, pres., B. Ryan, sec-treas. CLASSICAL CLUB The atmosphere of Rome and Athens breathes once again over coffees held by the Classical Club. Delicately carved Etruscan bronzes deco- rate marble halls through the words of Miss Eme- line Hill. Guided by Mathilda Snelling, discus- sions rage over the meanings and background of the Iliad. Homer reigns once more in Yellow Par- lor. Eee Mclallave pyaeVae dunce pres. |) Grays treas., S. Williams, sec. PSYCHOLOGY CLUB The newly-formed Psychology Club was orig- inated for all students with interest in the dis- cussion of current psychological problems, and in the study of the most modern theories and experiments. Heavenly interest centered on Mr. Morris Stein as Mars listene d to his relation of his experiences with the O.S.S. during the war. PSYCHE Great literature is the embodiment of all the aspirations and yearnings of the human soul and where a better home for the soul’s Personification than those literary meetings in Yellow Parlor? Psyche offers to all who are interested enough in the written word an opportunity to quote and interpret, in an intellectual and literary way. During the coffees the air pulsates with the awesome names of Hawthorne, Melville, Shake- speare, and that intimate friend of the gods, Milton. But ye faint hearts, shy not away, for the cheerful informality of the initiation teas centers. not only around chrysanthemum corsages but about the memoirs of former Wheaton Female Seminarians, whose journals, though not great, make hilarious reading. R. Sarle; pres., K. Schmidt, sec., Brockway, v. p. B. A. Farrow, S. Budgell, C. Raymond, N. Taylor MUSIC CLUB Apollo has inspired a Music Club for any who are interested in his world of music. Meeting bi-weekly, the members enjoy programs of song, listening, and discussion of the works of many well-known composers. Throughout the year concert trips are planned. ORCHESTRA As Apollo surveys the campus he sees students, faculty, and residents of Norton meeting to- gether in the Wheaton Community Orchestra under the direction of Frank W. Ramseyer, Jr. The main project of the year for these music lovers in the annual P.T.A. Pops Concert pre- sented in the spring. GENEVA GROUP When our celestial visitors hear from the Dimple amphitheatre discussion led by Marty Whitcomb, Jean Williams, Betty Brown, and Mary Stearns of their junior year spent at Geneva, of their lives in Swiss families, of their French studies, and of their own wide travels, ambrosial locks quiver and nod in complete approval. CUE CLUB Cue Club’s members are those Amazons who scoff at Hercules’ athletic cunning. Attempting to prove that while the man wears side-pockets the girl handles what’s in them, they have spent hours of practice in the Cage at chalking and cuing. Motto: Hercules shall learn who calls the shots! J. Hering, sec. J.. Paige, treas: A. Neilson, v. p. R. Hansen, pres. CHOIR Over in the Chapel every Mon- day and Thursday evening, the Muses Euterpe and Terpsichore reign supreme (along with Mr. G) as the Choir lifts its collective voice in song. Despite the absence of lyre and flute, the ladies must find it inspiring as they hear the beloved music of Brahms’ “Ave Maria”, of Franck’s A Minor Mass, of the Provencal Carols. Along with every- one in Choir they enjoy it to the utmost, even when there are rough spots and sour notes— finished beauty always rises to the top. During the past year, Choir has had the honor and felt the excitement of radio broadcasting, and of learning that the music and song was well- received. In addition, the Choir put on its annual Christmas Concert in which it sang a Bach Christmas Cantata, a “Gloria” by Caplet, and those French carols which usually set Terpsi- chore’s feet to dancing. An added success was the big spring concert in which the College Choir sang with the Harvard Orchestra and melodiously interpreted the “Stabat Mater” of Pergolesi, a cantata by Bach, “Praise Our God’, and a repeat perform- ance of the “Ave Maria” of Brahms. The Muses have truly done their utmost this year toward increasing the number of people who count Choir as a most essential part of college. President see se eee ee A.

Renwick OUR LARES In the Acropolis of the western hemisphere, our olympian visitors are most at home in the red-brick temples whose exotic names tremble on the tongue— Killam, Metcalf, Chapin, Larcom, Cragin, Everett, and that tiny shrine off at one side, Whi te House. In dim, subterranean halls the air is thick with smoke and horror would strike the more squeamish of the ancient Greeks and Romans if they could view with what nonchalance modern youths place thin, white incense sticks between their lips. Off in a corner strange red and green lights flicker before an altar Page eighty-four to a most benevolent god who, for a slight offering, bestows bubbling nectar in flasks marked with the mysterious hieroglyphic COKE. In scattered groups about the hard floor, worshippers gather to mumble together their incantations —‘“I'wo spades, four diamonds, five no-trump!” Above, dwell priestesses whose cubicles are filled with written works of the wisest and who thrill the multitude below with the oracular cry of “Telephone call on third!” Here, studious, dreamy quiet is—nonexistent. LZ Se heey Vitis ET PENATES Page eighty-five O FLORA, Pan pricked his pointed ears at the slip-slap of loafers scraping their way over to the gym, whose oft-opened doors emitted snatches of song or the shuffle of bare feet against wooden boards. Pan pranced up the steps, took a deep breath, disappeared from mortal view, and entered. What he saw and what he heard caused his flying return to Olympus where he badgered Jove and the assembled court into following him through the burning constellations until they found them- selves within the close darkness of a narrow brick hall. As Jove was about to command Pan to divulge the secret of their odd trip, the cur- tains before him suddenly parted, and for the next two mortal hours he was regaled with Vodvil’s hilarious presentation of life in the “Garden of Wheden.” What a life! Classes down in the archery field with Mother Nature bursting out all over and a timid Miss Burden busting out in a bathing suit; the library functioning under a totalitarian military regime complete to sentries, dead-pan friskers, and iron-barred brig; Mr. Sharp holding court and dispensing justice in the Infirmary WE FAUNA (Mrs. Starkey in BLUE JEANS); Miss Barrows distilling in the botany lab; portraits poignant and pungent of post-office blues, week-ends, 10:30 good-nights under That Light in the slype. The gods shrieked with the audience and be- stowed ambrosial bouquets upon the performers. Clio followed the wanderings of the two ana- chronistic Inspectors who finally ferreted out the foul perpetrator of Wheden’s original sin. Terpsichore applauded Cici’s impish, graceful choreography while Euterpe wondered with the chorus “Is this the sin?” Flora smiled benignly upon the efforts of little Miss Barrows to give her all to the flowers. Pan and Thalia howled gleefully at Merrill, Sharp, Burden, Dunham, and company, at the amazing emotional range Clare injected in the common collegiate groan, at the mental crack-up of the militant librarian, at the terrific lovers’ meeting of Janie and Wheeze that almost stopped the show. On the way back to Parmassus Jove grinned at Pan skipping from star to star, blaring on his pipes, rolling with laughter on the clouds. The fields of Elysian were never like this. Page eighty-eight STUDENT -ALUMNAE BUILDING Simplicity with comfort is the keynote of life in the Elysian fields, and Wheaton has concen- trated that basis for celestial living in its own SAB, the building for the students and _ the alumnae. Seen from the campus, its lines vie with the Parthenon for classic restraint; from the hockey field it reminds one of Daphnis and Chloe rambling through the woods, following the twisting banks of the pond. Within, its wide halls and high windows give entrance to all the rays darted from the wheels of Apollo’s chariot; the deep-cushioned couches of Yellow Parlor allow a maximum of comfort as well as correct posture, while the seats in Plimpton demand the utmost in attention for the commanding lec- tures heard therein. As Boreas screams without and hurls pellets of frozen snow against the panes, the offices of alumnae and parlors of stu- dents remain bathed in consoling warmth; in the spring and fall the concrete walls and floors cool the watering brows of lighthearted bowlers or general-sufferers. SAB is the essence of campus life. All the grinding labor, all the carefree play, all the sports, intellectual and athletic, are here pur- sued. In the Cage Apollo hangs over an upright box whose many strings are plucked by an un- ending procession of fingers; Proserpine hovers above raised patches of green which strike her as suitable for grain-sowing, but which are denied such usefulness in favor of “Number 9 in side pocket.” Hercules shakes his head over the con- tradiction of the Game Room, for instead of sensible discus-throwing or foot-racing, intense youths concentrate upon gathering cards into a Full House. Up the winding stairs Minerva wanders to the balcony overlooking Plimpton. While mortals dance, while gods play, she stands guard. For Minerva in her wisdom knows that SAB is not only a house of play, it is a fortress, a fortress against that Student Anathema, Bore- dom. A few years ago Mercury hovered over Howard Street missing the parked cars he had known in the past. He would sit peacefully during the week, hoping Saturday and Sunday would be more lively. But the week ends looked much the same as any other day with blue-jean-clad Athenas writing to Guam and England while listening to the Hit Parade. Mercury missed Page ninety SO VERY swishing skirts, the air of tweeds and pipes, the click-tap of high heels. He missed eavesdropping on dates’ squabbles and cheerfully fostering ro- mantic reconciliations. Slowly Mercury has welcomed back gas-filled convertibles and applauded when drab khaki and navy were replaced by sports jackets and hand- made argyles. Steady strides have accompanied COLLEGE click-taps. Athena has even acquired a healthier bloom due to Toll House dinners and dancing at the Copley. The new Bill’s and Sully’s sundaes have eliminated her weekday pallor and given her a touch of civilization. Athena’s sphere has widened democratically as she has sought to examine the intellectual achievements of Dart- mouth, Williams, Princeton, and Cornell. Today Mercury smiles proudly. The honking and the double parking convince him he’s in gay, exciting Times Square. Athena flashes into Information. More and more Athenas are running down the Dimple and standing under Everett’s Light. Sentimental Mercury nods his head in admira- tion of the new look. Page ninety-one AND $0, BACK TO PARNASSUS Cynthia’s wheel, star-silvered, turns, and in the vaulted sky The weeping Pleiades mournfully twirl through floating mists of time, Until their seven-times-measured step fades amidst the rainbow hue As Iris weaves a bright new day whose woof is soft with golden warmth; O now, ye spirits of airy grace, of pearly form divine, Warning sounds faintly through the silent void, For soon the steady-gaited morn must quite put out Your milky way among eternally-rolling spheres And part we must; but leave, we pray, within our midst The merry gladdener of our hearts, your child of joy, so natural and fair, And swear we shall, by mightiest Jove, Her glowing torch shall ne’er sink low while in our courts Sweet Hebe dwells.
