The 1941 CONOCO- CHEAGU E can only brush in the high- lights and shadows of the Wilson sceneg merely suggest an impression of the whole. Even as the yearbook goes to press, we, the junior class, know that that which we have tried to record is the unrecordable . . . the elusive magic of all our college days . . . 4 A B Q U 5 U N E Rfaonaffien B U U H TW U jnaabfiona , 1 Q,.,,V., ,-f , .1, 1 I , 1 x w V. 3, , x , lv -5 , f f fl 1 ' ' ff, 1, ,A V 2, , '11 v J f si.

But college is not a place of things only but of people- the people who lecture to us, live with us, Work with us, and play with us. . E AREA EUL PHESIUE T TH soar . Mar PAUL SWAIN HAVENS 0 I congratulate the board of editors upon this issue of the CONOCOCHEAGUE. As the years pass there is an irnperceptible change in those things which are recorded in this volume, and yet the permanence of the record is part of the very permanence of the College itself. But as one looks back through former issues of the CONOCO- CHEAGUE, it is the imperceptibility of the change which is most striking. It is right that there should be change, for all the world is changing and the College must keep pace. But in these days of cataclysm it is reassuring that the changes at Wilson have been gradual, like those of a growing tree, which sends its roots deeper and its branches further toward heaven, rather than sudden and startling and destructive. Wilsonis has bee11 a gradual growth and a strong oneg and the College is indebted to this volume for the recording of one more year of its life. MARGARET CRISWELL Distant O The Class of 19111 invites us to examine in this issue of the CONOCOCHEAGUE the picture of Wilson College in the seventieth year of its history. We turn the pages and think. of beauty as we look at campus scenes, trees, stream, ivy-covered walls. We sense deep roots as we note expressions of gratitude to the founders, pride in the past, love of traditions. We smile instinctively as We happen upon pictures and phrases showing lightness of spirit, gaiety in this College that has passed the mark of three score years and ten. And then we become keenly aware that depicted here is vigor of thought, action, purpose. Thus the Class of 19111 has drawn the picture of Wilson College. It seems now that the College itself urges us to test the validity of our impressions, directs our attention to this Class of 1941, to the Freshmen, the Sophomores, the Seniors. Beyond a shadow of doubt, we see exemplihed in these classes the qualities which 19411 has painted into the picture of Wilson. U11 EAN MARGARET VANDERZEE BUSINESS MANAGER T4-IEXIS I 941 REGISTRAR ARTHUR J. FREY P There is a tradition governing the way in which we should express our feelings toward the faculty. We should tell of their cooperation and aid, in class and out, of their kindness and consideration toward us. Nor should we forget their impressive dignity in the academic procession and their friendliness when the dignity has been laid aside. Their wisdom, under- standing, and forbearance must all be re- called in our Writing. This is tradition. We, too, think all these things but we are not going to say them now. What we want to say would be omitted in a tradi- tion-guided expression of our opinion of the faculty for we want to talk about their humanness . . .

You see, I used to live here-class of VLI, you know. But when I was here, we used to have the bureau over there by the window and the beds over here and the Odd banner hung on the side wall. I never shall forget our first Dummy Rush, when the Evens tried to take the banner. Our big sisters had warned us to take good care of it because the Evens would be after it, and so we hardly slept all that night. Every time the wind rattled the door, we thought it was an Even coming to steal the banner. Oh, and do you still have a big hockey game on Thanksgiving, with that won- derful dinner and K. P. play to finish the day? I'll never forget the snow we had one year. After dinner we sat and talked and watched it fall until it was time for the play. That play was a great event, the girls practised for weeks and sandwiched their classes in between rehearsals. President: BETTY FAILOR Vice-President: MARY LOUISE MCDOW1'ELL Secretary: ELEANORE GOTWALS Treasurer: BETTY NOLD But I believe I liked Christmas time best of all. Wfe used to sit around the fire in the dean's room and read Dickens' Christmas Carol. Then on the last morning before vacation it was heavenly to lie in bed and listen to the choir singing Christ- mas carols through the halls. How we hated the thought of coming back after vacation to exams. Our room became a regular study hall for all biology exams. Five or six of us would lie around on the floor and try to cram what little we knew into everyone's head. However, May Day was always ahead of us. Wilson is so beautiful in the spring, anyway, and the girls looked especially pretty in their court costumes against a background of spring foliage. And I'll never forget the qualms we had about the weather. One minute the pageant was postponed because of the rain, and the next minute frantic preparations were being made for its presentation. Oh, and I remember Step-singing. You do still have it, donit you? One night wc sang Rah, Rah, Rah, all the way from South to Main. Then we came in here and had a bull session in which we wrote a song contest. We didnit win, but we thought it was good and used to sing it to ourselves as we paddled up and down the Conocoeheague. In the springtime we used to take canoes out and study over on the other side of the island where it is so beautiful. The scenery there always reminded me of a Wallace Nutting painting. My goodness, what's that? Oh yes, the fire siren! you say it goes off at five minutes of one every day still? Why it must he lunch time, and here I've kept you from your work all this time! But I must go now. Thank you for letting me visit you. ,lust being here has brought back so many memories . . . I'm sure you7ll understand when you're an alumna . MILLICENT E.

People asked us how we felt, and shaking our tassels out of our eyes, we replied that we didn't feel a bit different. No new dignity or superiority seemed to go with the caps and gowns. After all, becoming a senior wasn't really a matter of a few minutes nor even a matter of the few months between our junior and senior years. It was something that had been happening ever since We came to Wilson. And being seniors doesnit simply mean that this is our last year at college. It means that for almost four years we have been a part of Wilson and Wilson has been a part of us. It means that three and a half years ago we learned what it felt like to be freshmen with huge blue hair ribbons, black stock- ings, and name cards which proclaimed our identity to all the World. It means that ever since then we have been experiencing the things that make Wilson. Elizabeth McKee Elizabeth J. Ccmmel Ruth Stark Jane A.

Welve bent over desks in a room long since be- come cold, scribbling the last paragraph of a term paper. We've sprawled on our beds deep in extremely earnest or utterly nonsensical argument. We've laughed at tl1e clackety-clack of Wilson heels on the brick walks on Sunday mornings. Welve come back to Wilson after vacation to find that spring has come back too, and welve watched the leaves of the oak in front of Warfield dancing in the sun on a spring day. We've done all the numberless things that go with life at Wilson. The blue hair ribbons signified that we were beginning that lifeg the black caps show that we have I. almost completed it. They do not mean that we are now separated from the rest of THE. fe' g 'QM Wilson but that we are more a part of her t than ever before, for our knowledge and love of her have been growing continu- ously during our four years at Wilson.

The little red ribbons so carefully pinned upon each lapel were hardly necessary. Who couldn't guess that we were freshmen, young, bewildered, green freshmen? Questions, seemingly ridiculous to our worldly superiors, issued forth from the lips of many of us. Freshman: Excuse me please, but where is lVIain? Junior: You're in it. Freshman: Sorry. Then, could you tell me where the Post OHice is? Junior: Behind you. Laugh if you want to. We donlt care. That's all over now. We know Wilson like a book. Some of us even know our way around Main! Wilsonls heart as well as her doors were opened to us, and we were entertained by step-sings, parties, teas, and a K. P. play . . . in the good old Wilson way. Uncon- sciously we were being drawn into her irresistible atmosphere: . . . friendliness, rooted in sincerity, college life, mellowed by tradition. Guided by our already adored big sis- ters, we put our best foot forward, and were saved some of the customary, humiliating, and ridiculous episodes. Nev- ertheless, we are freshmen, and shall re- main freshmen until our water-pouring and door-holding days are over, and we assume the seemingly remote title of sophomores.

Now we were college women, fully initi- ated to our new responsibilities.

But with optimistic hearts, we set out to realize our first impressions . . . hoping that they would be lasting. Friday, Saturday, and Sunday had been reluctantly crossed off our calendars when freshman-week . . . its fun and follies . . . rolled around. Upper-classmen awoke to the sleepy echoes of the Alma Mater being sung falteringly at a near-by flag-pole, bright red hair ribbons were seen bobbing about the campus, while the inevitable scratchy black stockings and burdensome name-cards completed our ridiculous cos- tumes. Yet, underneath all the humor and hilarity, we felt a growing bond of friend- ship, a sense of belonging to Wilson, and the beginning of a hitherto, unexperi- enced college spirit. November . . . Thanksgiving day . . . and a dinner which shattered all our dietary resolutions, and played havoc with our already bulging figures. Hockey games, tea dances, plays and informals slipped into the recesses of our minds, as once more we picked up the thread of our everyday life. Now we pause to see what we have gained from our first months here at col- lege: . . . welve learned to mold the spiritual life with our mental and social life, weive experienced the trials of per- severance, and we've gloried, however seldom, in the triumph of accomplish- ment, we've begun already to look to our colors with pride . . . red and White.

But what we gain is secondary to what we must give. We are now a part of Wilson, and accordingly pledge ourselves in life- long loyalty to our new-found Alma Mater' . . . small but mighty . . . and wonderful to us. LENORE M.

The students of Wilson College, be- lieving that self--government will develop character and individual responsibility, will strengthen the bond between students and faculty, will increase loyalty to the best interests of the college, will secure a better carrying out of such college rules as shall come under student jurisdiction- such is the purpose of the W.. C. G. A. as stated in the preamble. The whole student body makes up this governing association. The executive and judicial powers are in the hands of the Executive Board, headed by Frances Findley, President, and com- posed of two students from each class and WILSU EULLEEE EUVEH ME T ASSUEIATIU two faculty members. Meetings of the W. C. G. A., at which the report of the executive board is read, old business dis- cussed, and new business initiated, are held monthly. Student government was first instituted at Wilson College in 1904 under the Women's Intercollegiate Association for Student Government, of which Wilson was a charter member. In 1932, the charter was abandoned for an agreement between faculty and students and the name of the association was changed to the Wilson College Government Association. Wilsolt College Government Association Board: Shannon, Haarell, Patterson, V. Smith. M. J. Brock, Cale, Findley, H. J. Keller, J. Colgan. Student Council: Sinclair, Failor, Yurnall, Vall-Spinosa, llffcllvaine, Maslar1,fl, Wfyclcog. Vinson, Chambers, M. Wilson, H. J. Keller., Cleelaml, Acheson, V. Dickson., R. Colgan. Turner, F enner, Babcock, Brick, Marqusee. The Student Council, headed by Helen Jane Keller, is made up of live representatives of each class. The ac- tivities of this group are many and varied. Their most important function is the sponsoring of the informal dances, for which they instituted programs this past year. The supervision of the victrola in the Edgar Room and the House Presidents: Rossman, Harer, Cemmel, Higgins, Donnan, McCoriIiell. EUUNEIL purchasing of the latest records come under their jurisdiction. Each year the Student Council takes charge of the sale of the famous Wilson Tillies that grace so many college bureaus and bookcases. This year the W. C. G. A. handed over the job of conducting a Thanksgiving tea dance on Thanks- giving afternoon to the Student Coun- cil. All general suggestions for improvement in college affairs go to this group, who earnestly work to bring about as many things as possible for the beautifying of the college and the en- joyment of the students. Thus does the Student Council fulfill its purpose to enable the Student Body through equal representa- tion, to initiate laws in accordance with the agree- ment between faculty and students. 77 if ei THEX ml loan M, l GQ 89 W .fra THE loan E W ,iijl f A Q fra 90 Young Tl7omen's Christian Association Cabinet: Arnold, Little, Simpson, Bornlnann.

The chairmen of the committees organized. to plan these affairs form with the officers the governing cabinet. The officers this past year were: President, Helen Simpson, Vice-President, Helen Lewis, Treasurer, ,lean Sterrettg and Secre- tary, Betty Fenner. The programs pre- sented in the Wednesday evening Y meetings include speakers, dance re- citals, student singers, and skits for special occasions, and are open to all members of the college and to the faculty. The fall of 1939 saw a series of meetings devoted to lectures and dis- cussions ofthe world situation. In keeping with its name the Y spon- sors vesper services in the chapel every Sunday evening. The services are en- tirely conducted by students except when special speakers are invited to attend. Devotional Week in March is a tradition of the college. A guest speaker is invited to address the college and discussions are held in the dormitories each evening. As a climax to the year's activities on the last Saturday in May the Y.W. C. A. holds a lawn fete. Last year the lawn fete featured a series of tours to unfrequented parts of the campus- the kitchen, the organ loft, and the rug room.

A. has always stood have this year been increased by the closer cooperation which the entire school has shown. Students have been more willing than ever before to share in the work of the S. S. A. Many have acted as big sisters to 'town children, entertaining them by parties at the college on Hallowe,en, Christmas, and other occasions. The big sisters have also tried to interest the children in hobbies. Students who did not act as big sis- ters made visits to the Old Ladies' Home, to the Children's Home, and to the hospital. Others helped. in the mak- ing of gay scrapbooks of magazine cut- outs, birthday and Christmas cards for the children in the tuberculosis pre- ventorium at Mont Alto. One great advance that was made this year was the closer association of the S. S. A. with Relief work in town which enabled the college students to do social work that was definitely needed. Sally Thayer, Dorothy Shadle, Caro- lyn Rymer, and Ann Shimer served as officers for the past year. I Social Service Association Cabinet: Slumer, Rymer, Lorenz, Landmesser, Thayer, M.

EG T The Omega Theta Literary Society was formed for the purpose of stimu- lating interest and study in contem- porary American literature, ideals, and philosophies, to develop creative activi- ties, and to urge members to contribute their better work to the college maga- zine, the Pharetra. All students with a B in English are eligible to try out each semester by submitting a piece of original work . . . short story, essay, or poem. When those chosen have been initiated with appropriate rites, they are then divided into two chapters, Alpha and Beta, each headed by a chapter chairman. This division gives each member an opportunity to lead HET the discussion in one of the monthly meetings. The program of these meet- ings is devoted to reviews of current literature or writing. Each spring Omega Theta holds a contest to which all members submit either an essay or a short story. A committee composed of three members of the faculty and the executive officers of the Upper Literary Societies serve as judgesg prizes are given for the best work submitted in the two fields and the prize-winning manuscripts a1'e published in the Plzaretra.

PPEH LITE There are a few people who have tapped resources outside of themselves, who have been able to compare the ideas of countless creative writers with the faint stirrings of their own imagina- tions, and to evolve from the combina- tion something truer than truth itself. They have literally created something which has never before existedg have said something which transcends authors and their mediums, reads a Pharelra editorial written last fall. It is to aid the student writer in reaching this goal and in developing her writing style that Phi Chi Psi and Chi Tau Pi, the two honorary literary societies, exist at the present time. The dusty pages of old annuals tell the story of fifty four years of friendly rivalry between the two upper lits . The tradition goes back to 1880 when a group of Wilson girls who felt the need for improvement in literary work and appreciation organized Chi Tau Pi. Membership, which was un- restricted, soon reached such alarming proportions that in 1886 the society divided into two groups. In 1904 the two upper litsi' were reorganized and membership became honorary. While old secretarial books bear records of such ambitious enter- prises as lawn fetes, plays and original operettas presented by the societies to Phi Chi Psi: Johnson, Oberholtzer, Tosh, Tamlyn. IVIalon-ey, fqgeris., Harkinis, Harer, Mickleto1'igl1t. each other, the present interests of both groups are restricted to more purely literary activities. Programs and dis- cussions of the work of contemporary authors are supplemented by practice with mutual criticism. An annual contest between the two uupper litsi' serves to stimulate writing activity. It originated in the early years when Chi Tau Pi challenged Phi Chi Psi to a verbal bout at the Rosedale Opera House. Present day upper liters hold their contest in the chapel and read rather than recite their various manuscripts. Besides the contest the joint activi- ties of the two groups include singing V.

Maloney has been President of Phi Chi Psi and Eugenia Geib has been President of Chi Tau Pi. The other officers of Phi Chi Psi include Katherine Jefferis, Vice-Presidentg Lois Harer, Program Chairmang Elisa- beth Tamlyn, Secrctaryg and Louise Micklewright, Treasurer. Mary Frances McFee'ters was the Vice-President Program Chairman for Chi Tau Pi, and Virginia Hatch was Secretary-Trea- surer for the same organization. THE' , :oar W '1 M. A :N , . J., Al' ' av 95 BILLBUAHD Just a poor reporter, a 'workin' on the Billboard staff: We deserve a by-line, but all we get's a laugh! We tear our hair, we swallow glue, We reel off miles of copy and we sling it through- Thus runs the Billboard version of a favorite Wilson song. Behind this rather hectic picture of a sophomore reporter's existence lies a systematic organization of forty-one Wilson stu- dents whose chief extra-curricular in- terest is publishing the college weekly. The editorial or writing staff is a pyramid consisting of eleven reporters, six associate editors, and three senior editors. A business staff of fifteen mem- bers manages fmances, circulation and advertising. The make-up of the paper is handled by a technical staff of three assistant editors, two associate editors, and one senior editor. For veteran Billboarders, the hard work and fun of putting out the paper is backed by something of a crusading spirit. In spite of such exciting setbacks as occur when there's No news this week, the cuts are gone! The public's mad, but the press roars on- somehow The Wilson Billboard comes through each Friday night. To report campus happenings ac- curately, to express and interpret stu- dent opinion, to stimulate student thought-these are the reasons for a college paper's existence, and the goals to which the Billboard is pledged. Billboard Senior Editors: Harkins, Hatch, Jejeris. Billboard Sophomore Reporters: M. Weber, Schabacker, Daddow, Northwood, Vall-Spinosa, Goldman, Grantham, F enner, J. Roberts. Billboard Junior Editors: Tosh, Landmesser, Johnson, Tamlyn, Camblos, McDowell. Billboard Technical Snag: Colquhoun, MeVicker, Me lellan, Wilson, Gray.

Mclnnes, Bowlby, Wyckoff. Pl-l Pi From a beginning as the result of the rival magazines of the two Upper Literary Societies the Pharetra has grown to be the literary publication of the college which appears in the Wilson mail boxes six times a year. lt is open to contributions from all students, and the material is not limited in any way except that it must attain a certain standard of literary excellency, for it is the earnest endeavor of the staff to maintain as high standards as possible despite any lack of material which may occur. Poems, either lyric or narrative, formal or informal essays, short stories, biographies, and research papers are all published from time to time. Every spring the Pharetra publishes the ETH winning manuscripts in the Omega Theta contest, and in the contest held between the Upper Literary Societies. In the exchange department of the magazine, publications of other col- leges are criticized and evaluated regu- larly. Also in each issue of the magazine there appear reviews of books belong- ing either to the college library or to the Pharetra Book Club. The latter organi- zation is managed by the staff to encourage readers on the campus by bringing new best sellers to them. Further to stimulate college interest in books and writers, the Pharetra spon- sors a lecture by a well known author. The speaker this past year was Robert P. Tristram Collin.

DEH DEUTSEHE EHEI Der Deutsche Verein was established for the purpose of giving those students who have interest and ability in the German language an opportunity to learn more about German literature, language, customs, and culture. Its monthly meetings, at which the sub- jects of Germany at war and German culture today are discussed, are con- ducted in German. Plans were made to follow the example of Le Cercle F rancais' annual custom of presenting a play to advance the general interest in language. The play was given in April. Der Deutsche Verein again spon- sored the singing of German Christmas carols and also had their annual Christ- mas party or Weihnaehtsfest. At this party the Nativity story was retold and German games were played. The officers of the German Club during the past year have been Grace Potts, President, Helen Black, Vice- President, and Ruth Kroneman, Secre- tary-Treasurer. There are eighteen members and one honorary member, Miss Pokrantz, in the club. TEHT LUX ESPA UL The initiation of new members at a Mexican banquet complete with chili con carne and tamales began on Columbus Day, the first of this past year's meetings of La Tertulia Es- panola. These meetings were devoted to a study of Spanish fiestas. Religious festivals, an innate part of Spanish life, figured in the study along wi th the funeral customs which hold a rather gruesome fascination for the Spanish people. At the opposite extreme were the carnival customs also to be studied. Christmas time brought stories of the pinaza and posadas, as well as tradi- tional games and carols in which the Magi figure. Not least picturesque among the customs studied were the bull fights with their gay colors, festival feeling and pitiful brutality. One meet- ing was devoted to a discussion of the music which cannot be omitted from a study of the Hestas. A play was given in April with a cast including Anita Yale, Peggy Nixon, Emma Cook, and Millicent Land- messer. The yearls activities ended with a picnic in May. Anita Yale held the office of Presi- dent this yearg Margaret Light, Vice- Presidentg and Catherine Graham, Secretary-Treasurer. La Tertulia Espanola: Cook, Lamles, Rodisch.

LE EEHELE FH!-X w 15 Le Cercle Frangais, made up of stu- dents recommended by the French department, meets monthly in order to promote a keener and broader interest in France and the French language. Its activities are numerous and varied. Le Cercle directs the practices of the group of people interested in singing French carols before Christmas. On November 6 Le M edecin Malgre Lui by Moliere was presented by the French Club. A French moving picture is shown at the Capitol Theatre each Le Cerele F runguis: semester under the auspices of this group. Proceeds from the play and the movies make possible a summer scholarship for one French major in the junior class. The 1939 scholarship was awarded to Dorothy Helzel, 940, who studied at Pennsylvania State College. During 1939-1940 Mary Frances McFeeters was President, Dorothy Helzel, Vice-President, and Elizabeth Nold,Secretary'Treasurer.Miss Syvret, Miss Dodd, Mademoiselle Vivien, Mrs. Havens, and Mr. and Mrs. Von der Muhll are honorary members.

Classical Club: EL SSIEZXL EL Roman life and its influence on all life since that time, especially in regard to costume, have been the theme of the 'Classical Club for the past year. Around this have centered all the pro- grams of the monthly meetings where talks were illustrated by the reliques from the department's collection. But the interests of the students of Greek and Latin who are the club's members are not confined to this alone. At Christmas time there are traditional carols to he remembered and sung, and afterwards there are cookies and hot chocolate for the singers. At the initia- tions in the spring the members and honorary members recline gracefully at a banquet in the Edgar Room While the initiates in rough brown tunics serve as slaves. A picnic at Red Brook completes the year's activities. Elizabeth Keiper and Betty Higgins have acted as President and Vice-Presi- dent, respectively, and Mary Jane Cline and Jane Nieholl as Secretary and Treasurer for the past year.

CHEMISTRY EL The Chemistry Club has been devot- ing its meetings this year to a study of the history of chemistry. The club is composed of the chemistry majors, and the faculty members in the department are honorary members. Early in the year Herbert Scott, a manufacturer of Lili perfume in Ber- muda spoke at one of the regular meet- ings. He discussed the manufacture and use of perfumeg and since his sub- ject was of interest to the school in general the meeting was open to all who wished to attend. For the Decem- ber meeting, a surprise party was given in Miss Harrison's room. At another meeting there was a report on the chemistry of the Ancients. The other meetings were devoted to reports and discussions by the members on the his- tory of chemistry. Ruth Troutman acted as President, Betty Prescott as Vice-President and Jean Colgan as Secretary-Treasurer for the past year. BIULUGY EL Students who have chosen biology for their field of concentration or allied subject and have attained a certain academic standing are eligible to be elected members of the Biology Club. An election is held each semester and the new members at the next meeting of the club entertain the old members by portraying in a skit some biological idea. First semester of this past year the theme that was chosen was the physical and chemical properties of protoplasm. At the meetings held twice a month there were, this year, lectures and dis- cussions and a Professor Quiz pro- gram. Several reports were given by student members of the club on sub- jects of mutual interest as for example -the history and uses of sulfanilamide. One meeting in the fall was turned over to Gertrude Christiansen who held the summer scholarship awarded annually for study at the Marine Biological Laboratories at Woods Hole, Massa- chusetts for 1939. She described her studies in the Held of Invertebrate Zoology. Just before Christmas there was a party at Miss 'White's home for the club members and the department majors. In the late spring the annual club picnic was held. Ann McConnell was President of the club this year, Adelaide Bornmann, Vice-Presidentg and Eleanor Robinson, Secretary-Treasurer.

At their monthly meetings members ofthe faculty, students and outside speakers address the group. This year Mr. Tobias Dantzig was invited as the initiation speaker. Mr. Frey gave a talk on Ballistics and Mr. Ebbighausen on Relativity at later meetings. Frances Findley and Betty Prescott reported on their summer work done at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology . Pythagorean Club: Jolmson, ferikel, McIf'icker, Adams, Prescott, Connelly, Baker, F ailor. Acheson, Thayer, M. Smith, Rossman, J. Zimmerman. Short talks were given by Sally Thayer, Lois Swift, and Doris McVicker on the relation and use of statistics to other sciences at one of the early spring meetings. Informal meetings are often held with general discussion by the members of the club. The Pythagorean Club is planning to hold its annual pic- nic at the Outing Cabin this year. During the past year Margaret Jenkel has acted as president of the Pythagorean Club, Elise Baker as vice-president, and Esther J. Johnson as secretary-treasurer. Sixteen students make up the membership, having been recommended by the head of the mathematics, physics, or astronomy departments. THEXHX . I94l W f - f f-- l' Q QQ 1 'e-g art 107 THEN loan H J.

What is sig- nificant is the fact that music as a means of self-expression holds a valu- able place in the lives of many students. To these students the Wilson College Orchestra offers a unique opportunity for cooperative and artistic instru- singers move on to the next dormitory, while the rest of Wilson snuggles under its collective warm blankets to think joyous Christmas thoughts. In their more usual black gowns and demure white collars, the choir mem- bers form an integral part of Wilson's daily chapel and monthly church ser- vices. The leadership of Miss Edyth Thompson, traditionally known as Teecher, and her group of selected voices, make chapel music a beautiful background for the religious life of the college. STH mental study. Rehearsing once a week under the direction of Mrs. Walter Golz, the group presents two annual concerts, and provides occasional music for various other college functions. Kathe- rine Brow and Mariana Hay hold the offices of president and secretary- treasurer respectively, this year. Hon- orary members who also play in the orchestra include: Mrs. Paul Swain Havens, Miss Anne Golz, Mr. Walter Golz, Mr. Richard Kitzmiller, Mr. Harry Wolf, Mr. William Reilly, and Mr. Russell Bixler. USIII EL Music has always played an im- portant role at Wilson College. The music department has attracted many students and this year, for the first time, two music scholarships were offered to the incoming freshman class. The Music Club was formed by a group of students interested in the further study of music. Its membership is limited to the faculty of the music department and to advanced students recommended for their ability. Among the various advantages that the Music Club offers its members are Music Club: the integration of musical study with academic work, the opportunity for public performances, a chance to meet guest artists at receptions held by the Music Club after the concerts, and experience in program building. Em- phasis in the meetings held this year has been placed on ensemble work and preparation of well-balanced programs. Oflicers for this year have been Marion Smith, president, Jessie Louise Goehring, vice-president, and Mariana Hay, secretary-treasurer. H. J. Keller, Rice, Cline, Porter, Arnold, Nell. M. Hay, H.

ESPEH EHUIR Under the direction of Dorothy Arnold, '40, student leader for 1939- l940, the Vesper Choir offers its mem- bers an opportunity for training in music and choric singing. Every Sunday evening this group leads the music in the Vesper services. For special occasions the Vesper Choir ren- ders lanthems. This choir is especially popular with those students who are interested and talented in voice, for it often serves as a stepping stone to the regular College Choir. Tryouts open to members of all classes are conducted during the early part of the first semester of each year. Freshmen, in particular, are often in- terested in this chance for special train- ing in choral work. About eighteen girls are chosen to make up the Vesper Choir with four others who serve as substitutes. Practices are held every Sunday afternoon. A student organist accompanies the singing at both prac- tices and regular services. THE' ,. lgllr 'f,fl T?:' 1'f' ' .wtf 7 if 57 111 1-: - a 5, THE' ' I94l eww Ik ,H gi A1 I 1 EH President . . .

Cath- erine Graham supervised the stage-set, and the lighting effects were planned and executed by Shirley Meservc. HS 11313 FUR MEAN This year has marked a significant in- novation in the work of the Kittochtinny Players. Along with the usual one act practice forum plays, the club has pre- sented condensed versions of several well known full length plays. Important scenes selected from each play gave the members of the acting,costume,stage-set and make- up forums consistently good opportunities for experimental interpretation. S0 that the audience would not lose the thread of the story, the directorlof each play inter- polated a brief synopsis of the omitted portions between scenes.

Maeterlinkls Sister Beat- rice, and How Like a God by Victoria Sehrager of Smith College were the plays produced. Sister Beatrice deals with the imagi- native story of a nun in a French con- vent, and her disillusioning venture into the everyday world. The title role was played by Dorothy Shadle. The supporting cast included Jean Zimmer- man, Ma1'garet Coates, Betty Docker, Juliet Ann Wa1'd, Mildred Mcllvaine, Marjorie Moses, Anita Yale. The new freshmen inemhers were extras. Mrs. John Yarnall directed the play and Betty Docket was assistant director. Myrtle Wallace and Ruth Daddow had charge of costuining, and the stage-set was done by Catherine Gra- ham. The Art Students designed and executed the set. How Like a God presents the dilemma of three college girls looking for a suit- able play to present, and their eu- counter with a group of Shakespeareis women characters. J osepbine Andrews directed the play. Mary Lou Carr, Eleanore Cule, Jean Fries, Fern Shef- fer, Nancy Hutchison, Jean Campbell were Shakespearean ladies, and Grace Potts, Sally Thayer and Beverly Hall were the Wilson girls. .- wl THE loan 1 iiiif , Qlllif , it 2 is MEHEHANT UP VENICE All day cloudy skies 'threatened the white columns and wine velvet drapery of a classic stage-set erected on Thom- son Green.

During the past year the Ath- letic Association board has been con- centrating much of the time on plans for the raising of a fund with which to buy a station wagon for the college outing cabin. Through a system of student managers of sports the A. A. board supervises the college extra- curricular athletic program, and also sponsors occasional special events such as intercollegiate play days and the annual swimming pageant. The awarding of athletic honors is governed by the A. A. board. In 1939 the co1lege's most distinguished athletic awards, Pentathalon honors, were pre- sented to Jean Pace and Jane Little of the class of 1939. In addition to Pentathalon honors a cup is awarded to the winner of the tennis tournament and to the captains of the teams Win- ning the class hockey and basketball tournaments. Doris Miller has been president of the Athletic Association during the past year. Barbara Chambers has been vice-presidentg Shirley Meserve, secre- taryg and Isabel Patterson, treasurer. They have been assisted by student representatives of each of the four classes.

I 5 128 Every WilS0ll girl becomes ac- quainted with the swimming pool when she takes her swimming test to determine whether she may use the pool with other students without faculty supervision. Most girls return to the pool again and again for recrea- tion after a hard day or for an hourls exercise during exam period. Many of the students swim on their class teams and join classes for the purpose of improving their technique, This past year in addition to the regular instruc- tion and diving, classes in American Red Cross Life Saving were conducted during the winter and an Instructorls MM course was given the first week in April. Arrangements were made by Elise Baker, swimming manager, to hold four interclass meets during the winter and one Odd-Even meet. The events sched- uled to take place included the four length freestyle, the four length back crawl, four length breast stroke, med- ley relay, freestyle relay and diving. Competition exciting alike to perform- ers and bystanders was furnished by teams well coached by their respective captains-Elise Baker for the seniors, Jean Blair for the juniors, Barbara Ann Stroh for the sophomores, and Sara Jane Troy for the freshmen. HI There is a place in the WllSOIl College Riding Club for everyone interested in horses: it includes the novice as well as a few trained riders with a bureau drawer full of blue-ribbons. All may come to enjoy rides in the country for early morning breakfast, for lunch, or for sup- per with a moonlight ride home. The only qualihcations for membership in the Club are a love of horses and a delight in the thrill of riding. Riding as a spring and fall sport offers instruction to the beginner in sitting a walk, trot, and cantcr, acquaints the intermediate with the care of a horse and the etiquette of road riding, and provides U I proficiency and accuracy 'tests for the advanced rider. During 'the fall the Riding Club sponsored a movie about horses and sold hot dogs in order to raise money to bring an expert rider to Wilson to give instruction. The climax of these popular activities is the Spring Horse Show when the winners of ribbons in each group are selected as well as the College Champion and reserve Champion. At this time W's are awarded by the A. A. to members of the Club for interest and achievement in riding. For this past year Ruth Troutman was manager and Mar- garet Wyckoff, secretary-treasurer. 1 2 TE NNIS The iirst warm days of spring at Wilson bring forth a small army of tennis en- thusiasts to fill the seven tennis courts every hour. For many, however, this is not the beginning of the season, for battle- board equipment in the gym permits year-round playing. Classes are organized for beginners and intermediate players. Advanced players may receive physical education credit by merely playing two hours a week. All students are eligible for class and college tournaments that are held in the late spring. The best ten players are chosen to receive special instructions from Miss Mary K. Browne, inventor ofbattleboard tennis and a former national tennis champion, who visits the college for a week. Miss Browne also conducts classes for the other students, not only teaching them to play correct tennis, but also how to look graceful while doing it. 'l is terminated on a Saturday by bition match. The weather last spring was g all the classes were able to plaj class tournaments. The champion class were .lean Pace, '39, Barbar bers, '40, Anne Wunderle, '41, a Weir, '42. The college championship c awarded to Anne Wunderle, '41, Daisy Chain ceremony. Anne's c in the final match was Doris Mi whom she defeated in two sets score of 6-3, 6-3. The semi-finali Jane Little, '39, who had lost te and Flora Aeheson, '40, whom A defeated. This was the second y Anne had won the Wilson Colleg championship. Ml UHSPUHTS Minor sports play an important part in the sports calendar at Wilson, appealing especially to the student who is less in- terested in an organized group activity. Cumberland Valley offers excellent trails for hiking and bicycling. Hikes of varying lengths are arranged in charge of student leaders who are responsible for seeing that the hungry hikers are fed with breakfast or dinner at the end of the trail. Special hikes are sometimes held for the purpose of photography, star-gazing, or collecting nature specimens. Badminton, ping-pong, and fencing are favorite indoor sports at Wilson. Fencing classes are so popular that enrollment has to be limited to upperclassmen. The students find that a game of badminton or ping-pong, especially during examina- tion time, is relaxing and enjoyable. Inspired by Bliss Beverly McCuen,s dance recitals, many people have joined her dancing classes. All freshmen are required to take modern dance. Members of the other three classes may join more advanced sections or may study folk- dancing. Baseball is another favorite minor sport. Odd-even and faculty-student games are played from time to time. The most important game of the year is the faculty and students Barbara Bennett '41 has been minor sports manager for 1939-1940. THE I94l NN M hui .,,,L f ix one played on Mont Alto day between 131 .5220 I 0lfU'l6! fAQ Cftlfflldlflff ETIVITIE I AL Scarlet hair ribbons, lipstick-dauhed noses, name cards, and black stockings differentiated the freshmen as a class from the rest of the Wilson 400. Slacks, skirts, culottes, and shorts appeared as tl1e busses gradually filled. College songs, negro spirituals, popular tunes, and an excited buzz of voiees with hilarious giggles now and then indicated the ser- iousness of our thoughts. Upon arrival at the picnic grounds the upperelassmen hurried off to retrace the well-known paths to the mountain-tops or to watch the faculty-student baseball game while the freshmen began to look for the necessary grasshoppers. The hikers followed the cool paths upward to drape themselves about the rocks at the top of the mountain. The ambitious took pic- tures of their friends and the view, but the others sat and tried to see the farthest edge of the valley below, indistinct in the TU blue haze but extremely beautiful. Wheli empty stomachs urged their return to the picnic grounds they met the baseball fans also in search of food, bring- ing heroic tales of the home runs by which Mir. Nleeter and President Havens gained fame. When the lunch had appeared and dis- appeared almost as rapidly, President Havens as toastmaster introduced Frances Findley, W. C. G. A. president, and the four class presidents whose speeches ollicially put the stamp of approval on the day. When the Alma llvflater had been sung 'there was a frantic grab for one more banana and a cautious shake ot the box with the grasshopper in it. Then a rush to get seats near our friends on the busses. As the busses rolled nearer and nearer college, despairing thoughts of work to be done told us that Mont Alto Day was over until next year.

THE This year as every year a tradition of the past became very much a part of the present when six juniors and six seniors danced the minuet in the Edgar Room after dinner on February 19 in celebration of Washington's birthday. Only the familiarity of the faces of the dancers prevented us from forgetting the present completely and becoming enveloped in a past filled with satin gowns and knee breeches, powdered wigs, and buckled shoes. Earlier they had intrigued the more prosaically dressed students and faculty of the twentieth century when they appeared in the candle-lighted dining room in the elegance of the eighteenth UET century. When dinner was over these 'twelve danced the slow and graceful measures of the minuet in the stately manner of an older day. Skirts billowed as the ladies curtseyed to the floor and the long swords of the gentlemen shone as they were unsheathed. Partner smiled at partner as face came close to face in the kissing step. To the watchers it seemed. that here was a bit of an age of romance and chivalry come to life for an evening. But the dancers vanished and left reality to us again. The dancers were: McKee, Crabb, Dunn, Elsey, Findley, Hollinshed, Failor, Bowlby, Connelly, Johnston, Sterrett, Vall-Spinosa. 1 Here is an ideal of a perfect week-end in the mountains . . . thick woods . . . with a pad of brown pine needles under foot . . . serene night sky . . . straight up be- tween the tall, slender trees . . . call of whip-poor-wills . . . indoors a blazing fire . . . someone reading aloud . . . knitting and letterwriting. . .home-made chocolate cakes . . . long hours of sleep in a cold room . . . a hike up one of the mountains . . . and hamburgers at the top . . . snow for skiing in the winter . . . wind and color in leaves and sky in autumn . . . birds . . . flowers . . . and greenness in spring . . . and finally a feeling of well-being and peace that does not fail . . . MA Cloudless blue skies and a blazing sun showed no sign of the almost traditional May Day rain. Cars and cars of guests arrived to be escorted around campus, every canoe was in use, every tennis court was full. As the audience crowded on the bleachers at the edge of the pageant field beside the Conococheague there was no lessening of the heat of the sun and those who, braving laughter, had brought umbrellas were in an enviable position. When we had long since given up Wonder- ing what to do if anyone else Wanted to sit on our bench, a sudden hush caught our attention. Gracefully, Elizabeth Fretz, the Herald, rode down the hill to Make Way for her Majesty, the Queen of the May and the ceremonies were begun.

The queen, Jane Royle, preceded by her maid of honor, Nell Fooks, followed down the hill attended by her court. Juliet Ward, court jester, offered a contrast to the beauty of the May court by her well- timed clowning. Wheil her Majes'ty had been crowned and presented with the crown, sceptre, sphere, and footstool, by the class presidents, she gave gifts to the author ofthe pageant, Flora Deibert, and to the director, Martha Flegler. As it Was announced by the herald, the pageant, The Sleeping Princess, was pre- sented in honor of her Majesty, the Queen of the May. It was the traditionally lovely story of the princess to whom the elves gave gifts on her birthday. A table laden with food helped to celebrate the occasion as did a dance by the courtiers in her honor. But a bad fairy stole into the room and pretending to be a friend gave her a magic spindle with which she pricked her finger. Immediately, she and the whole court were placed under a spell. The seasons passed. First, Sir Summer and his men tried to waken the sleepers tching bananas and e they went singing Sir Autumn and his -ne in their pursuit of had danced by a el Sir Wiiictei' came d and while the 't on the icicle, ever- 3 men danced about Sir Spring and his an the hill.

'By her awakening, the whole court was aroused 'to dance away when the knight had, with the consent ol her parents, carried off the princess on his horse. lVlargare'l2 Brock was the general chair- man of the pageant, Constance Crabb had charge of the costumes, and Betty Moore directed the stage-set. All the dances were under 'the supervision of Nliss Nl'cCuen. Solo dances were performed 'by Peggy King as the Red Fox, Frances Farrell as the Bad Fairy, Helen Phillips as Sir Willtex' and Annabelle Brooks as Sir Spring. -Hfrvi Tl-Nfl mai W i I 144 is I Q91 P1-JEQD E+ '..' if! if ' :HT HX- ! HTH nn. .Ll EUMMENEEMENT Where,oh where are the verdant fresh- men, played on the organ as we marched out of the last regular chapel service last June, was the first oH'icial sign that the academic year was drawing toward com- mencement. When the turmoil of exams was past the days were turned over to washing curtains and cleaning out desk drawers. Sober goodbyes and gay greet- ings were shared as underclassmen de- parted and alunmae arrived. The alumnae parade proceeded on Saturday afternoon, June 10, in spite of the threat of rain. The seniors, as the newest alumnae, ended the parade with the official car bearing the class officers and decorated with mottoes based on a modified W'orld's Fair theme. The storm broke over the red and white crepe paper of 1939, and spectators and paraders alike scurried for the shelter of Main hall. By evening the weather had cleared and the Kittochtinny Players presented The Mer- chant of Venice on Thomson green under a starry sky. The Reverend Mr. Hiram Foulkes 142 l l preached the sermon at the baccalaureate service on Sunday. At alumnae vespers that evening, Eleanor Cule 740, received the Warheld scholarship and Margaret Norcross '39, the Buchanan medal. Monday morning saw the sophomores acquiring blistered fingers as they wove the daisy chain and Moiiday afternoon the courtyard of Main was the colorful scene of the senior garden party. At live o'clock the white clad sophomores marched down the hill from the presi- dentis house to the May pageant field bearing the rope of daisies. Standing in W,' formation they sang the Odd daisy I' . 7 , in- , chain song and presented the flowers to their sister class. Ethel Thompson then gave her cap and gown to Betty McKee, her successor as senior class president. President Havens presented Pentathalon honors to Jane Little '39, and Jean Pace '39. Anne Wunderle '41, received the college tennis championship cup. A dance recital by Miss Beverley McCuen and her modern dance class was held on the archery range Monday night. Later, old and new Wilson songs rang across the campus as the seniors gathered on the porch of Main forithe last step singfi Tuesday brought the commencement exercises with stately organ music, pro- cession of the faculty in the full academic dignity with their many-colored hoods, and the seniors with their blue-and-white ones.
