THE FACULTY
High intellectual achievement at Agnes Scott is
inspired by a group of leaders in the field of
scholarship who owe their influence to their part
in non-curricula activities as well as to their leader-
ship in the classroonn. Together the faculty and
administration embody the ideal of the college,
and stand out at the same time as individual per-
sonalities from whom we learn lessons in living as
well as in studying. Informally pictured here in
their activities is a group of people who make up
an integral part of the Agnes Scott atmosphere
cultured, charming, democratic.
Intelligent administration, careful planning and cooperation have built up the college plant under the direction
of Dr. McCain. Aside from his executive work, his high ideals set forth in a living example are a standard of ex-
cellence for teacher and student alike to work toward. Off campus contacts interest him when they pertain to
modern progress in which the college is engaged, so that he has made them mean much to the advancement of
Agnes Scott. Last year he was President of the Ameri-
can Association of Colleges, and this year served on
its nominating committee, as a Director of the Citizen-
ship Institute sponsored by Agnes Scott, Emory, and
Georgia Tech, as Chairman of the Georgia Rhodes
Scholarship Committee, as Senator to the Phi Beta
Kappa Senate, and as Secretary-Treasurer of the
Southern University Conference to which the Atlanta
institutions were hosts this year.
Though absent from the daily routine this year be-
cause of her health. Miss hlopkins in her invaluable
place as Dean of Agnes Scott has a record of service
to the college and leadership of its students that is
unmatched, for the school has developed from an
academy to a college under her supervision. Uphold-
ing the standards and responsibility of "Miss Hopkins'

office," and acting as advisor to anyone who has a problem, from the
President of Student Government to the assistant janitor of the Science
hiall involves Miss Scandrett constantly, usually in several places at the
same time, even though Margaret Bell, Mary MacDonald, and Alberta Pal-
mour are competent office assistants. But even assuming such dignities as
capping the Seniors at Investiture and being President of the Georgia As-
sociation of Women Deans hasn't deprived her of that wink!
hielp in filing applications for jobs
comes from Mr. Stukes, who is also
busy on the campus with the duties of
the classroom and outside activities;
for he is head of the Psychology De-
partment and for many years has
served on Lecture Association. Com-
munications from him reach girls be-
fore they come to Agnes Scott, too,
because besides all the other work he
is Registrar. Managing campus im-
provements as well as college business is Mr. Cunningham's job,
and Mr. Tart as College Treasurer receives the fees and keeps
extra (?) spending money in the college bank.
Turning to the curriculum, the Admissions Committee, com-
posed of Miss Alexander, chairman. Miss Christie and Miss Gay-
lord, leads the Freshmen into the mysteries of the catalogue;
and leaves it to Mr. hlolt and Miss Torrance in the Electives
Committee to direct them in getting out with the correct num-
ber of hours and
cou rses. E m -
braced in these
committees are
the French De-
partment, which
Miss Alexander heads; Mathematics, represented by Miss Gay-
lord; English and Greek by Miss Christie and Miss Gaylord, with
Mr. hHolt, Chemistry head, chairman of Electives.
The French Department has added prestige through Miss Alex-
ander's position as Dean of the Faculty, and boasts a cosmopoli-
tan personnel consisting of Miss Virginia Gray, an Agnes Scott
graduate who came this year from her post in the Belgian Congo;

the French Club and Lecture Association.
Miss Gaylord figures in the Math Department as well as in the Admissions Com-
mittee. Figure out, too, how Mr. Robinson, head of the Math Department, plays
in the String Ensemble, is Secretary-Treasurer of the Southern Division of the Math-
ematics Association of America, acts as B. S. U. advisor, and still has time to revise
the marriage per cent.
Literature and history, acknowledged
friends and co-developers, have the co-
operation of tennis to boost their friend-
ship at Agnes Scott; for Mr. Hayes, Eng-
lish, and Mr. Davidson, History, are familiar

American Revolution seem to combine logically or not. Both of these
department heads need to play hard to balance their work. This year
Mr. Hayes has conducted a series of lectures on the novel for the Agnes
Scott Business Women's Club and Mr. Davidson has managed the Red
Cross Campaign for DeKalb County, helped put on the Citizenship Institute,
served as President of
the local Phi Beta Kappa
chapter and as a member of the nominating committee of its
Council, and as faculty advisor to Mortar Board. Not to be
outdone by their heads, other English and History professors
seem to rival each other with busy days packed full of classes,
clubs and outside activities, some of which we don't know
about. Well known as Chairman of the Lecture Association,
Miss Laney has served the college community in that capacity
again this year; the lecturers being on the high level of former

spoken, as well as written, is taught at Agnes Scott
by Miss Frances Gooch and Miss Carrie Phinney Lati-
mer, who make the students speech conscious not self-
conscious, and direct Blackfriars' plays.
Other languages are treated in the same interesting
manner that French is with student clubs which de-
velop interest in speaking the language and learning
the games and customs of the countries. Miss hiarn
manages the affairs of the German Department and
helps with the programs of the German Club, while Miss
Cilley is always developing something new for the
Spanish Club games, dances, and songs of colorful
Spain and South America. Latin and Greek, com-
bined in Eta Sigma Phi, have been connected further
this year by Miss Torrance's assistance in the Latin
Department to help out Miss Nelson and Miss Stans-

burn, instructor in English, came to teach at Agnes Scott when the class
of 1938 was in its Freshman year, was one of its faculty advisors, and
gave the Investiture address when they received their caps at the tradi-
tional ceremony in November. College publicity is directed by Miss
Christie, also in the English Department, through the agencies of K. U. B.
and the Agonistic it speaks for itself. The "newest" member of this
department is Miss Virginia Prettyman, who lends English literature the
peculiar charm of her low country South Carolina accent. Miss Jackson
has been making A. A. U. W. history this year as its South Atlantic
Director, as well as teaching European history in the classroom. Miss Flor-
ence Smith, a Mortar Board Advisor, has the distinction, we claim, of
being one of the few who understand the ins and outs of our government
well enough to explain it to others in lectures. She represented Agnes
Scott at the An-
niversary Cele-
, and assisted in

Mind, society, welfare, reli-
gion every phase of our life
past, present and future of
which we have been more or
less aware before college are
viewed in a new light in Psychol-
ogy, Sociology, Economics, and
Bible. Problems dealt with con-
cern us personally and make
these courses pertinent. Classes
are large, discussions heated,
and ensuing bull-sessions amaz-
ing and enlightening through the
instruction of Mr. Stukes, Miss
Dexter, and Miss Omwake in
Psychology; Mr. Wright in Economics; Mr. Raper in Sociology; and Mrs. Sydenstricker and Mr. Gillespie
in Bible.
Fine Arts encourage the well rounded education that every Agnes Scott girl seeks. Music lovers
rarely fail to catch some of the enthusiasm with
which Mr. Dieck
mann regards c
music, organ an
piano in particu-
lar. \-\e reads it,
studies it, plays
it, writes it, two
of his songs be-
ing published last
summer. Miss
Eda Bartholomew

performs enviab-
ly well herself as
her joint recital with Mr. Dieckmann in September illustrated. Mr.
Georg Linder of the Atlanta Conservatory teaches violin. Voice
training under Mr. Johnson means fun and work, pleasure and f
valuable experience, for his full program includes a Christmas pro-
gram by the Choir, an operetta by the Glee Club, and frequent
public concerts by the Special Chorus of the Club. Miss Lewis,
busy in both the teaching of theory in her art history classes and
actual painting and drawing, still had time to exhibit some of
her work in the Museum room of the library, and help with other
exhibits sponsored by Pen and Brush, the student art club.
Science is separated from the other departments only by its
residence in the square three-story Lowry Science hiall, for
its influence invades every field. Mr. Holt spends much of his
time among student records in the Electives Committee and
works off the effect by playing golf. Miss Gilchrist also takes
shrub, Mr, Cunningh
ase24
chemistry afield, being a good hiker and mountain climber, and an ardent supporter of Chi Beta
Phi Sigma.
Authentic star gazing is sponsored by Mr. Christian, Physicist, who made a memorable speech
representing the Faculty during Student Honor Week in January. Biology, with headquarters on third
floor, in the basement, and in the greenhouse, is directed by Miss McDougall, Mr. Runyan, Miss Bee
Miller, Dr. Mary Anne McKinney, and Miss Frances McCalla. The composite of "Miss Mac's" de-
gree and academic robe from the University of Montpelier, Mr. Runyan's bicycle and curly-headed
daughters, the enthusiasm of Miss Miller and Miss McCalla for
sport, and Dr. McKinney's career in India at the Women's Chris-
tian Medical College makes the personality of the department as
interesting as its subject.
The library is the campus hotel, a magnificent structure, con-
stantly full of transient guests who use its resources, and register
there hundreds of times in their daily stop-overs for knowledge.
Miss Hanley, as manager, has student desk clerks and bookhops, in
addition to her assistants. Miss Nunnally, Mrs. Graham, and Miss

Draries,prideot the college.
Changes in faculty per-
sonnel, and who does what
besides holding classes and
giving grades, are primarily
interesting to the student,
but at Agnes Scott the yearly shift of student personnel is also
of interest to the faculty. Agnes Scott is proud of her student
faculty relations which are on a level of friendship based, we
like to think, on a respect that is mutual. Faculty offices in Butt-
rick are constantly invaded for advice. Each member of the
faculty has particular interest in several freshmen for whom he
or she acts as advisor, but no one regards this as any particular
restriction office doors are open to anyone who knocks with a
Pasc 25
purpose. Dr. McCain's door is merely an ornament for his office,
for the hinges were removed long ago. We prefer the use of his open
door to the use of such a one as the Orient offers; its hospitality might
be questioned but not our President's.
Traditional hospitality of the faculty was kept up in 1937-38,
with some delightful innovations and new student faces for variety.
Mr. and Mrs. Stukes were at home in their new house to dispel the
effects of gloomy Sundays; a real "Berkeley Square" atmosphere
was created at Miss Leyburn's annual tea for her Eighteenth Century
Class; while faculty coffee warmed spirits and alimentary canals "the
night before Christmas" when the language clubs sang Christmas carols.
Miss Gaylord and Miss Scandrett may claim the honor of bringing
back afternoon tea from their European tours, but its place on the
campus is time honored and widespread whenever a body meets a
body coming across the quadrangle. Dr. Raper's class picnics are
a sociological problem with
which he has proved himself
able to cope. And if other en-
tertainments equally delightful
and traditional are conspicuous
by their absence, the excuse that the time it would have taken to
investigate them all had to be spent on a few back assignments
should be sufficient.
Small wonder that such a college program requires systematic,
regular exercise and recreation, with the supervision of a college
physician, and her two nurses. Miss Daugherty and Miss Thomas.
So the gym houses the offices of Dr. Swanson, who succeeds Dr.
Sweet; Miss Wilburn, Physical Education head and golf and
hockey expert; Miss hiaynes, who is faculty advisor for the class
of 1938 as well as teacher of dancing, swimming and riding; Miss
Mitchell of basketball and tennis fame, and Miss Dozier, who
directs May Day dances. Knowing how to play so as to get the
maximum pleasure and most physical benefit from it is a vital
part of modern college education, in which, in its every phase,
Agnes Scott takes a lead.
Gold behind those bars.

Recording a year's activities at
Agnes Scott pictorially made
1937-38 one long time exposure
to the Silhouette staff; a pow-
erful floodlight held on the
school calendar from the open-
ing day until the annual went to
press, in an attempt to catch
with one of the five kodaks in
constant use some of the daily
events on the campus. Such a program of course went beyond the work ten staff members could
do and beyond the ads that eight girls could sell. Patient friends who held the lights for innumerable
snapshots, busy faculty members who paused for sittings, camera addicts who contributed pictures
for the snapshot contest, clubs who al-
lowed constant invasions of the camera,
all became involved as they had to be
in the making of a school record book
that discarded a formal theme and
album pictures for new slants on
established Agnes Scott traditions.
Selection had to play a part every
meeting of every club and every im-
portant event of each month could not
be snapped by hiayden Sanford's red
Brownie (figure that out) or by Ad Ben-
son and Shirley Steele with the staff
camera. Organizations' activities could
only be suggested by typical pictures
instead of action shots, with the addi-
tion of the faces of the committees
and boards that carry on the work of
various fields.
The Silhouette as a student publi-
cation has included in its 1938 edi-
tion all students who take any part
in the college life. More pictures were
taken and more ads were sold than be-
fore through the combined efforts of
the student body.

Publishing six issues of a purely literary maga-
zine which demands creative writing whether
or not anyone feels particularly creative
means a busy year for the Aurora staff.
Attractive brown and tan volumes tucked
in each mail box at bi-quarterly intervals spell
worry as well as what the students are writ-
ing and thinking about. College poets, essay-
ists, short story writers, dramatists, and art-
ists are represented among its pages, where
they are given valuable experience, and
others get the pleasure of reading interest-
ing if not always "purely literary" composi-
tions.

without "Aggies" bread
without butter! This year
the college newspaper de-
voted the editorials to a
campaign for broadening
the horizons of a student
body too prone to be cam-
pus-minded, in addition to
our being informed ac-
curately of the events of
the college, the "Front
Line" of world news, re-
views of new books, and
accounts of social activi-
ties. Wood pulp paper was
adopted to help the Agonistic in its campaign for real journalism along the line of appearance.
Sports reporting livened up the back page, making it equal in interest with the Current hiistory col-
umn, Giddy's gossip, and features. With the school calendar full from September to May, the Agnes
Scott newspaper has opportunity for experience in every branch of newspaper work for the students
who are interested.
In her editorials hlortense Jones became the mouthpiece of the Press Council made up of the edi-
tors and business managers of the Agonistic, the Aurora, and the Silhouette who have endeavored
to make all three publications two in one affairs mirrors of various phases of student life com-
bined with a reflection of the trends of the world outside the college inspired by the memorable
trip to the Associated Collegiate Press Convention in Chicago.

A three weeks' holiday in February gives the staff
a respite while class elected editors and business man-
agers get out Senior, Junior, Sophomore, and Fresh-
man editions for the yearly contest (see the Sil-
houette calendar for the winner) between the
classes. Snoops and scoops cause real but amiable
rivalry in getting out the newsiest best-all-round edi-
tions.
Coordination with K. U. B., the journalism club
whose members are now automatically reporters for
the Agonistic, has helped the campus over organiza-
tion problems which the Agonistic first bemoaned
and then improved by this step towards simplifica-
tion. Practicing preaching strengthens influence.
The newspaper atmosphere in the "Aggie room"
in Main gets thicker every Monday night which is
make-up night, and the staff gets far more worried
than it seems in the picture below. Perseverance is
an essential, for no sooner is one paper out than the
deadline for next week's news stories appears an
endless round of finding out the news and finding a place to put it. But as long as the Agonistic keeps
in touch with the students it will have their interest and support. Members of the staff are: Jane Guthrie

Student life at Agnes Scott is based on the honor system, so that Student Governnnent As-
sociation functions more as the voice of the student body and as the basis for improving cam-
pus conditions than as a judiciary body. Projects ranging from the elemental one of train-
ing for citizenship, which began with the revision of the constitution last spring, to a sewing
machine campaign have filled the program which began last May after the installation of the
new officers. Under the direction of Laura Coit every month has brought forth a new phase
of the broad program. After the orientation during September and October, "Information
Month" was sponsored in November. This included discussions of Student Government in
America and its history at Agnes Scott, and one of those memorable chapel skits in which
the liberality of Agnes Scott's social privileges was illustrated. Exams took the place of any
other project in December; but January was memorable for "hionor Week" when Dr. Chris-
tian spoke for the faculty, Carolyn Forman and Nancy Gribble for the student body, Mary
Ellen Whetsell for the Executive Committee, and Dr. McCain for the Administration.
Just as important were the projects for campus improvement the purchase of a new
sewing machine and a sewing room in the basement of Main were the results of a cam-
paign for donations that amounted to around forty dollars after a room to room canvass.
Christmas holidays Laura Coit and Emma McMullen, Junior Representative and official
delegate of the student body, flew down to Albuquerque, N. M., for the N. S. F. A. annual

Congress, and were positive on their return about the values
of conventions! This was followed up by their reports given
in chapel, and by a visit to the campus from Arthur North-
wood, outgoing president of N. S. F. A.
Ann Worthy Johnson, Vice-President, arranged the pro-
gram for freshmen orientation during the opening months of
school. The extent of the program demands the help of the
whole college, so that the Freshmen can become acquainted
with the ideals and traditions of Agnes Scott as well as the
various social regulations that bewilder new students. Ann
Worthy's campaign began last spring when she selected about
eighty-five Juniors and Seniors to take care of the Freshmen
in the fall. Beribboned sponsors worked out schedules, wiped
away tears, served as escorts to teas, receptions and other
entertainments planned for the opening days, and became
more informed than their sponsorees at the end of orientation.
Only Ann Worthy's gavel can bring any order out of the
bi-monthly Open Forums where vox populi gets its greatest
exercise. When the discussions get too broad and complicated they are brought up in N. S. F. A.
discussion groups which are also directed by the Vice-President.
The Executive Committee, in addition to the four officers consists of Mary Lillian Fairly, House
President of Rebekah; Tommy Ruth Blackmon, House President of Main; Nell Hemphill, House Presi-
dent of Inman; Eliza King, Student Recorder and Senior Representative; Kitty Caldwell and Emma
McMullen, Junior Representatives; Ruth Slack, Harriet Stimson, and Henrietta Thompson, Sopho-
more Representatives; Zoe Wells, President of Day Students; and Winifred Kellersberger, President
of y. W. C. A., Ex-officio.

Other student officials are not directly under

have the hard and thankless task of collecting the
Student Budget from every student. This year
Ellen has been active on the Committee for Com-

Distribution of the wealth to the organizations

Y. W. C. A,
On a September day before the open-
ing of college for the 1937-38 session,
the y. W. C. A. Cabinet met on an over-
night camping trip to decide on the
plans for this year's work. With the idea
of reaching each girl in her own Christian
life, the theme decided upon was "Find-
ing My Faith." Through the first and
second quarters this idea was developed
in the chapel programs, beginning with
a talk on "The Will to Believe," and
leading up to the talk at the last chapel
before Christmas on "The Meaning of
the Star of Bethlehem." The outside
speakers represented five denomina-
tions. The Vesper programs were de-
voted to studies of men and women
who have discovered the principle of a
vital faith in Christ and put it into prac-
tice in their lives. The spring quarter in-
cluded a service on "Faith in the Resur-
rection," and further developed the
theme along the more practical line of
living our faith in our world today.
Two weeks of special services were
held, one in the fall led by Dr. Wallace
Alston, and one in February by Dr. R. E.
Speer.

resented at the fifteenth Na-
tional Convention of theY.W.
C. A. held in Columbus, Ohio,
in April, by Douglas Lyie.
The different groups of the organization concentrated on their
own specific aims. The Industrial Group, led by Mildred Davis,
contacted the Industrial Girls' Club of the Atlanta Y. W. C. A.,
and visited several factories to study conditions. The Social Se
ice Committee of which Martha Long was head sent girls to help
and observe at the Shriners' Hospital for Crippled Children, The
Good Samaritan Clinic Day Nurseries, Children's hlomes, and Girl
Reserve Groups. It also sponsored the annual Christmas tree for
underprivileged children in Decatur. Katherine Patton directed
the study of the 'World Fellowship Group to Student Movements
in the world, while Millie Coit's Mission Interest Group contacted
Agnes Scott graduates who have gone into the foreign fields in
addition to Miss Emily Winn who is the missionary supported by

Freshman work, and the Sophomore Cabinet confined its work to
its own class.
Through the varied work, the one aim of all concerned has
been to seek together with every Agnes Scott girl the realization
of the college motto, "To add to our Faith, Virtue, and to our
Virtue, Knowledge."

THE HONOR ROLL
A measure of real achievement in scholarship, the first phase
of the A3nes Scott Ideal.
Pa3e93
PHI BETA KAPPA
The purpose of Phi Beta Kappa as set forth in the Constitution of the United Chapters is to "recognize
and encourage scholarship, friendship, and cultural interests." The qualifications for membership are
high scholarship, liberal culture, and good character; only those students, moreover, whose work has
been definitely liberal in nature shall be eligible for membership in course.
The purpose and practice of Phi Beta Kappa are thus in full accord with the ideals of Agnes Scott
College, and the faculty from the establishment of the college in 1906 was keenly interested in ob-
taining a chapter. On September 9, 1925, the Council of Phi Beta Kappa granted the request for a
charter. The Beta of Georgia Chapter was actually established at Agnes Scott College on March 23,
1926, the one hundred and second chapter founded and the ninth in colleges for women.
Since that day, twelve years ago, the Beta Chapter, of which Dr. Philip Davidson is President, has
elected 186 members. In the achievements of these members, and in their devotion to the ideals
both of Phi Beta Kappa and of Agnes Scott, as well as in the scholarly and cultural influences of the
organization on the campus is seen the work of Phi Beta Kappa at its best.
Elections come twice a year, in February and in May, so that the 1938 chapter will include several
more members, in addition to Elsie Blackstone, Jean Chalmers, Mildred Davis, Eliza King, Elise Seay,
and Zoe Wells. The announcement of their election was made on February 15 at the joint meeting
of Phi Beta Kappa and the Citizenship Institute when Dr. F. P. Gaines, President of Washington and
Lee, made an address on "The Modern Significance of Liberal Arts Education."

Little Girls' Day, N
Mortar Board, the National Senior Honorary Society for Women, is composed of campus leaders, elected
on the basis of service, leadership, and scholarship. It is both a recognition of past achievement and
an organ of further service as a group. The program this year has stressed social and cultural life on
the campus, with two new features this year. They were a class consisting of ten lectures by various
speakers on preparation for marriage, optional for Seniors the last quarter, and Vocational Guidance
Week in April.
The chapter sponsored a variety of entertainments, the first being a steak fry for the transfer stu-
dents, which was followed by an open house in October in the Murphey Candler, announcing the open-
ing of this building for dates on Saturday nights. Hallowe'en was the occasion for an informal Spook
party for the Sophomores and their dates, while the Freshmen had their fun at an equally informal
Carnival in the gym, where horse racing, managed by Dr. Davidson, was most popular. The weekend of
February 19 was exciting for many Juniors Junior Banquet, new dresses, corsages, and Hims!
The tea for the Seniors last June during Commencement was a final farewell for them, and
the first party given by the new Mortar Board. In January, they revived the traditional tea for the
day students and their parents to meet the faculty.
The whole campus became personality-conscious early in January, for Charm Week developed bet-
ter postures, attempts at better figures, hemmed up skirts, and new personalities. Miss Myra Jervey,
style expert from Stephens College, lectured and personally advised girls during that week, sponsored
by Mortar Board, S. G. A., A. A., and Y. W. C. A.

Mr. H. S. Ede, a former curator at the Tate Gallery, London, and the
Grand Duchess Marie of Russia were presented by the Lecture Asso-
ciation in 1937-38. The faculty committee of which Miss Laney is
chairman, and the student committee of which Grace Tazewell is
chairman again lived up to the Association's reputation for bringing
the best speakers in various fields to the campus. The excitement of
having famous visitors and the traditional receptions where the stu-
dents are presented to them personally are unforgettable occasions.

BIBLE CLUB
Bible Club, one of the largest organizations on the
campus, was started to try to make the Bible and
Bible study more real and vital in the lives of Agnes
Scott girls; and the help and guidance that the
faculty advisors, Mrs. Alma Sydenstricker and Dr.
J. T. Gillespie, give adds much to the influence that
the club exerts. Although the club is composed
primarily of Bible students, other students are in-
vited to attend the monthly meetings.
The program this year has alternated group dis-
cussions among the members v/ith talks by outside
speakers. Several of the outstanding speakers that
the club has enjoyed have been Rev. Jeb Russell,
of Atlanta, v/ho spoke on his experiences in South
America; Dr. Mary Anne McKinney, who described
a Christmas in India; and Miss Virginia Gray, who told of her work in the Belgian Congo.
Often instead of formal talks there are fireside discussions of problems and questions which seem
vital to young Christians today. One of the best discussions of the year was led by Mrs. Robert E.
Speer who out of her many years of experience was able to solve some of the perplexing questions of
the Bible.

If the thought of footlights and grease paint is alluring
to you, there is no reason for adding to your parents'
grey hairs by rushing out to hlollywood or up to Broad-
way instead join Blackfriars, the college dramatic
club. hHere, under the guidance of Miss Gooch and
Miss Latimer, the girls interested in dramatics are given
the opportunity to study acting and stage business,
and take parts in plays. Anyone who is especially am-
bitious to see behind the scenes (and who doesn't mind
working hard at rehearsals) can at least try out for a
part in one of the three public plays given annually. One-act plays also are given by the members at
each club meeting. Another thing that Blackfriars can boast of is the distinction of being the oldest
club on the campus, for it was organized in 1915 under the leadership of Miss Gooch.
The public plays were "Mrs. Moonlight," presented in the fall, in which Elizabeth Cousins, MyrI Chafin,
and Jeanne Flynt played the leading roles; George Bernard Shaw's "Pygmalion" presented in February
in which Elizabeth Cousins, Mary Anne Kernan, hlelen
Moses, and Shirley Steele all had important parts; and
the third play presented in the spring showed Blackfriars'
thoughts turned, unlike "the young man," not to love
but to producing a Greek play.

It IS unnecessary to tell that B. O. Z. took its name
from Dickens' pen name or that it is a group made up
of students who are especially talented in creative
writing the student body is well aware of that; what
isperhapsmuch less known is the real importance of this
little group. B. O. Z. members contribute much of the
material found in the Aurora, and whenever good writing is found there is usually a B. O. Z. member
there too.
This year beside the regular meetings here on
the campus B. O. Z. has been entertained by Mrs.
C. D. Dieckmann at one of their meetings and later
Miss Janef Preston, the club advisor, took the group
to her home for an evening.
Almost every kind of creative writing is done by
the club members. They write short stories, plays,
and essays, just for their own enjoyment; and these
works are read and discussed at the meetings.

CHI BETA PHI
SIGMA ^
Elizabeth Skmn
Chi Beta Phi Sigma has the honor of being the Alpha chap-
ter of this national honorary society for Chemistry, Mathe-
matics, Physics, and Biology; for the first chapter of the
woman's branch was organized at Agnes Scott in 1933.
Although the members are selected for special merit in the
sciences the open meetings are quite interesting to every-
one.
Some of the outstanding speakers this year show the wide range of interests in the club, for Dr.
Sewell, from Georgia Tech, spoke on the hiistory of Mathematics; Dr. C. W. Roberts, prominent Atlanta
physician, discussed Socialized Medicine; and Dr. Purks, Professor of Physics at Emory University, who
told of radium and X-ray, and their application to modern medicine. After these talks there were dis-
cussion groups where the speakers answered questions
informally.

Current History Forum is a new force on the campus
this year, but no one will deny that it is a very po-
tent one. Formed from a combination of Interna-
tional Relations Club and Citizenship Club, this or-
ganization has as its aim the formation of a forum
where students may discuss current affairs. In carry-
ing out this idea, they have had students as well as
outside speakers to lead discussion groups.
Members of this active organization have a bulletin board in the library that they change every
morning and on which they post the current events of the day.
The activities included not only having speakers on the campus; helping with Student Govern-
ment in its application of the N. S. F. A. peace program; but they also sent Eliza King and Mary hHol-
lingsworth as delegates to the conference of the Southeastern Division of I. R. C. at Vanderbilt (I. R.
C. is sponsored by the Carnegie Foundation for International Peace).

ETA SIGMA
PH
Eta Sigma Phi is the national honor-
ary society for Greek and Latin stu-
dents, formed for the purpose of
furthering interest in the classics.
The club meetings are not occupied
with whatever words the Greeks may
have had for anything, but there is
quite a bit of very modern fun. This
year's entertainment has included the
presentation of a comedy (look at the
pictures if you doubt that), a ban-
quet at which fifteen new members
were entertained, a lecture on Augustan art, and a choral reading from The Trojan Women.
One of the most interesting ideas the club carried out was the contest that Miss Nelson, one of
the club's advisors, sponsored. In this contest the members wrote letters to any of the ancients whom
they had admired, and a delightful club meeting
was passed in reading these letters.

FRENCH CLUB
The Cercle Francais is a decidedly active group af-
filiated with the National Alliance Francais, and has
as its purpose the stimulation of interest in and further-
ance of the student knowledge of French language,
literature, and life.
The monthly programs this year have been varied
and interesting: Miss hiale, fresh from a summer in
France, gave an enjoyable lecture on the Exposition
Internationale; the presentation of Moliere's Les
Femmes Savantes by members of the Agnes Scott
and Emory French groups provided a second delight-
ful meeting. At the Christmas meeting two short mys-
tery plays concerning the birth of Christ were followed
by singing of Christmas carols on the campus. Later
through the courtesy of M. Courtois, Atlanta rep-
resentative of the French Line, Fernand Brossard, guig-
noliste on the "Normandie," presented an entertain-
ing Punch and Judy show. Again the combined dra-
matic talent of French students from Agnes Scott and
Emory presented Deval's Tovarich. The next meeting
^^^^^^H nl^^^^^^^ featured entirely new entertainment: M. Courtois
gave an illustrated lecture on the Pyrenees and Basque
Country of France. Therese Poumaillou of Tours, the
French exchange student has taken an active part in
all the club meetings and added much to all the club
activities.

GLEE CLUB
The Glee Club, Collese Choir and Special Chorus always have
a busy time, but they seem to have the happy faculty of
combining work with play, for no organizations on the campus
seem to enjoy their work more. The most impressive program
that the entire choir presented was the annual Christmas con-
cert, when over a hundred girls were singing under the capable
direction of their leader, Mr. Lewis Johnson.
The Special Chorus spends most of its time singing light
opera selections for banquets and clubs; but the biggest
event of the entire year comes in the spring when the glee club
presents an opera. This year the club turned Japanese and
presented "The Mikado."

GERMAN
CLUB
German Club, composed of students partic-
ularly interested in German language and
customs, has the good fortune this year to
have not only Miss Muriel hiarn, the able ad-
visor, but also Ursula Mayer a native of
Germany, who is one of the exchange stu-
dents this year.
The program this year has included the
regular monthly meetings, at which only
German may be spoken (you should see how
that quiets some of them down); singing of
Christmas carols in German and the pres-
entation of a "Weinachtsspiel" (Christmas
play); and playing of various German games.
The club has many delightful traditions the Christ-
mas play has had Anne Thompson as the same char-
acter, the Virgin Mary, for three years, and Miss hHarn
gives an annual Christmas party with real German re-
freshments. Plays which are presented twice a year
for tryouts show surprising talent along several lines,
and those put on for regular meetings are interesting
experiences for audience and performers alike.

GRANDDAUGHTERS'
CLUB
Granddaughters' Club is one of the few purely social
clubs on the campus, and is composed of girls whose
mothers attended Agnes Scott.
Whenever they are seen crossing the campus
with their knitting firmly gripped under their arms,
they are almost certain to be starting to the Alum-
nae house, where they plan over their coffee cups
and knitting needles, for the traditional banquet that
they have each spring.
The banquet really is a gala affair, and this year
they were lucky enough to hold it the same night
that the glee club presented "The Mikado." The
girls not only had a wonderful banquet, but after-
ward they went with their dates to the opera.

K. U. B.
K. U. B. is the college Journalism club organized over ten
years ago to promote an interest in better Journalism
and to provide the Atlanta and Decatur papers v/ith fa-
vorable Agnes Scott nevi's. A few years later the group
began sending news of student activities to their home
town papers, and this project has been continued quite
successfully. This year the Agonistic reporter group and
K. U. B. have united their forces in order to better the
quality of news articles for the college paper.
Elizabeth Blackshear, President; Elsie West, Se
Vice-President: Ann Watkins, Secrctary-Treas
Evelyn Baty, First Vice-President.
The first meeting was taken up largely with reorganization plans and welcoming of new members.
Later in the fall K. U. B. was hostess to the Silhouette, the Aurora, and the Agonistic. Dr. McCain
spoke on what services he felt the three publications could render and have rendered to Agnes
Scott.
During the winter quarter Miss Marguerite Steedman of the Atlanta Journal feature staff spoke to
the club. She discussed the type of materials suitable for fea-
ture articles and the possibilities of getting ahead in the jour-
nalism world. During this quarter new members were taken in
by tryouts.
The spring quarter was one of much activity. In March K.
U. B. made a tour of the Journal plant, and in April the editors
of the Tech and Emory papers met with the girls. The climax
of the year's work was the luncheon at which the new officers
presided.

PEN aJ BRUSH
Even though it is a rather small club, there is no danger that Pen and Brush Club will ever be overlooked.
This group of budding young artists (the tryouts prove that) don't need to advertise themselves even
by affecting smocks and wild coiffeurs they are always remembered and imposed upon, for there
are few events on the campus that they don't help advertise.
Their meetings have variety, for they sponsor exhibitions on the campus, including the water color
paintings of Mrs. Mary Wilis, the etchings of Rembrandt, and a collection of student work; they have
sketching tours almost everywhere; and visit the art exhibits in At-
lanta. The Christmas meeting was one that everyone on the campus
would have liked to have attended, for there, beside the sketching
the members always do at the meetings, they showed pretty and un-
usual ways to wrap up Christmas presents.
The increasing popularity of original prints was illustrated by the
charming exhibit of Mrs. Charles Whitmore's collection which she
brought to the campus in April. Mrs. Whitmore was on the campus
for several days and spoke in chapel as well as at an open meeting
of the club explaining the theory and process of making prints. This
concluded one of the most active years Pen and Brush has ever had.

PI ALPHA PHI
There is probably no club on the campus that contacts as
many outside organizations as Pi Alpha Phi, the debating
club. This group under the able leadership of Dr. George
P. hiayes, has debated some of the outstanding debating
teams, not only in the South, but even as far away as Eng-
land.
et Hopkins, Secretary; Ma(y Frances Guthr.e:
:sidcnt; Esther Byrnes, Treasurer; Jean Austin,
President.
Although there are no decisions in these debates, the
Agnes Scott team always seems to have the ready comeback and wit needed for a convincing (and
entertaining) debate.
This year Agnes Scott has debated, both here and off the campus, such teams as those from Eng-
land, Australia, Atlanta Law School, University of Georgia, Erskine, hIampden-Sydney, and Sophie
Newcomb.

POETRY CLUB
Thinking of young poets, you might expect to find
them communing with nature in some woody glen,
but the Agnes Scott Poetry Club is a much more
practical group than that. Once a month after
dinner the group will go either over to Miss Laney's
rooms or to their little nook in the Murphey Candler
Building where they read and comment on the
poetry they have written (one almost classic query
is . . . "but is it poetry?")
The club members write just for the pleasure of
creating lovely verse, but they also make transla-
tions from Greek and Latin poets. Their work may
be seen in every Aurora, for they contribute much
to this magazine. This year Miss Laney, the faculty
sponsor, has helped the members by discussing dif-
ferent verse forms at the meetings.

SPANISH CLUB
Spanish Club, an organization whose aim is to give a better
understanding of the Spanish speaking countries of South
America, with special emphasis on literature and music, is
indeed fortunate to have Miss Melissa Cilley as their faculty
advisor. Miss Cilley returned this fall after a very eventful
summer in Spain, bringing, beside many interesting anecdotes,
a variety of costumes and so many new ideas that the pro-
grams this year have been more varied and colorful than ever.
Spanish Club has brought so much of the atmosphere of old Spain to the campus that the students
would not be surprised even if the club brought over a matador and sponsored a bull fight.
The outstanding programs this year have included an adaptation of the musical comedy. La Fiesta de
la Flor, by the club members, featuring Span-
ish songs, dances, and costumes; the cele-
bration of Pan-American Day; singing Span-
ish Christmas carols; and enlightening talks
by the Spanish professors from Emory Uni-
versity and Georgia Tech.

STRING ENSEMBLE
The String Ensemble has the unique position of being the only unorganized organization on the cam-
pus, for although the attendance is always good it is purely voluntary. Much of the success which the
group has enjoyed in the five years they have been playing together is due to their able director, Mr. C.
W. Dieckmann, who started the interest in the ensemble, and who arranges most of the orchestrations
that they use.
It was organized to provide an opportunity for people interested in playing stringed instruments
to take part in group playing, but the whole college community enjoys it, for each year the group pre-
sents several musical programs in chapel, accompanies piano concertos, and occasionally broadcasts.

FRANCES ROBINSON
Vice-President
Through its history the Athletic Association
has aimed at providing a recreation and social
program on the campus rather than concentrat-
ing only on athletic activities. A. A. tries to
interest each girl through some form of play or
sport competition. The sports seasons and
several traditional affairs are fixed dates on the
A. A. calendar, but other happenings vary from
year to year.
The rally in October gathered animals from
far and wide at an A. A. Circus in honor of the
new students. Girls disguised in blankets rep-
resented elephants, and others tied up in sacks
appeared as flopping seals. Side shows gave
glimpses of the "fat lady" and "thin man," a
roulette wheel, a fortune-teller, and a bowling green. A good time was had by new students and all.
With one eye on the health of the campus and the other eye on possibilities of a modest income
A. A. began selling apples in the dormitories. Then carrying the apple idea over into the health pro-
gram during exam week, A. A.
conducted classes in the then
raging "Big Apple" every night.
Prizes were awarded t!ic girls
who walked, drank (water), and
slept the most.
November 20 found Agnes
Scott hostess to a group of girls
from the University of Georgia
who came over to play hockey
with us. After a windy game
the players had lunch together
in Rebekah Scott dining hall and
then were served coffee.

The recreation room in that building got itself
dolled up during the winter quarter with new
draperies, slip-covers, another ping-pong table
(there are now twins), and endless ping-pong
balls and paddles. A. A. contributed to the
fun upstairs for Saturday night dates by install-
ing three card tables and sonne new games as
well as keeping the phonograph supplied with
the latest records from such warblers as Ella
Fitzgerald and Bing Crosby.
There was a mad scramble to get out the
G. A. F. C. W. news letter before conference
time. When March fourth rolled around,
Anne Thompson, the secretary of G. A. F. C.
W., Virginia Milner, and Lucy hiill Doty
packed their bags and went to Wesleyan at Macon to discuss A. A. activities in Georgia colleges.
April was a busy month of more conferences. Jean Chalmers and Jane Moore hHamilton attended
the meeting of the southeastern section of G. A. F. C. W. at Tallahassee. Physical Education direc-
tors from all over the country met in Atlanta and at the birthday luncheon of the National
Amateur Athletic Federation,
Agnes Scott's Athletic Associa-
tion presented that organization
with its fifteenth anniversary
cake.
Inviting every girl in school
who had participated in sports
clubs, been on class teams, or
been in May Day, A. A. enter-
tained at its final banquet in
May. New officers were offi-
cially given their duties, and the
1937-38 Board bid a sad fare-
well to a year of perfect fun.

colleges, to headquarters.
Lou Pate is the manager and is a champion in the sport.
Outing Club
Outing Club picked the coldest day of the year to entertain the faculty with a climb to the top of Stone
Mountain, but the weather man was kind enough to let them have a beautiful week-end at Cheaha Na-

pageant, "The Big Catch."
Tennis Club
In pretty weather when our minds turn to the out-of-doors, tennis is the result. The Tennis Club this year
has enjoyed matches and games among themselves as well as with outsiders. It sponsored a quite ex-
citing tournament with Ellen Stuart and Mary Nell Taylor the victors over Ann Fisher and Roberta

WE TAKE THE FIELD
In looking back over the fall sports season we recall with definite pleasure the whole-hearted par-
ticipation on the part of every class in that brisk sport of trick and stick hockey. Because Atlanta
chose to schedule her inconvenient weather for Fridays, only four of the customary six weekly games
were played. But the Sophomores needed only four games to lay rightful claim to the hockey cham-
pionship and to the big purple banner.
Carolyn Forman won the coveted hockey stick, awarded annually by the Senior team to the Sopho-
more player whose skill and spirit most deserve the honor of this graceful gesture.
Miss Wilburn expressed great pride in every Hottentot's cooperation and sportsmanship in this 1937
hockey season. And her smile twinkled broadly as she added, "I hope next fall we'll have twice as many
of us playing!"

TRAILS OF GLORY
The first game that the Freshmen played was against the Sophomores. It was a thrill to the grandstand,
and the coach said of it, "It was the best initial Freshman game we have ever had." The next game
they played was a victory over the Juniors of three to one, but the "mighty Sophs" defeated them by
one point in their last game. If the weather man had only stopped the Friday rains, they might have
come out on top that is, if there is anything to the old adage that practice makes perfect.
The Sophomore team did some excellent work on the hockey field this year winning every game they
played. Some bystander helpfully called "Watch Milner"; he might have added, "and the whole
team." Elizabeth Blackshear awarded to Carolyn the hockey stick given each year by the Senior class.
They first won over the Freshmen with a score of four to nothing. Again victorious they defeated the
Seniors with a score of five to one. Their last game was a close one, for they beat the Freshmen only
one point, the score being four and three.

The Juniors started off well with a victory of three to nothing over the Seniors, but they were left in the
lurch the remainder of the year. The Freshmen beat them with a score of three to one and the Seniors
defeated them with a similar score four to one. We will say for them that maybe they could not stay
on top because sometimes their line-up was not complete and there were no substitutes handy.
Without a right halfback, and with four new players, the Senior team met the Junior team for their
first game with good courage but no points. The Juniors scored three against them. They also lost
their next game to the Sophomores, the score being five to one, but they came out better on their
last one against the Juniors with a score of four to one.

ON THE HARDWOOD
The basketball games this year were very good, and the teams were evenly matched. The Sopho-
mores came well in the lead for the season. The Seniors came next with three victories and three de-
feats. The Juniors took the third place with two games won and four games lost.
The varsity-sub-varsity game was slowed considerably by a large number of fouls made by both
teams. Nevertheless, it was a good game, and the regularity with which varsity dropped the ball
into the basket made the final score sixty-three to
seventeen in favor of varsity.
The Brown Jug Tournament brought the basketbal
season to an amusing close. The dormitories, cot-
tages, faculty, alumnae, Atlanta day students, anc
Decatur day students all entered teams. Each team
had to present an introductory skit before the games.
This brought fun and hilarity to the end of a success-
ful season.

The Freshman lost their first game to the Sophomores, but they were the victors over the Juniors in the
second game. In the next one they were markedly dominant over the Seniors for the first half, but by
three minutes before the whistle their opponents had gained the two points which lost the game for
them. They lost their next three games one to each class.
The Sophomores came out not only undefeated on the hockey field, but also on the basketball
court. They are without question the blue ribbon team.
The Juniors seemed always short on players, but they could have done worse. They won their first
game against the Seniors. The next three they lost one to the Freshmen, one to the Sophomores, and
one to the Seniors. They were victors over the Freshmen in the fifth game, losing their last one to the
Seniors.
The Seniors lost their first game to the Juniors. In the next one the Sophomores beat them fifty-
five to nineteen. By the third game, they were improving, beating the Freshmen by one point. In the
next game they did still better, beating the Juniors by five points. Their fifth game they lost to the
Sophomores and their last game was a repetition of the third, because they won over the Freshmen by
one point.

IN THE POOL
The pool is one of the most popular parts of the gymnasium. The plunge period at 4:30 is the best
thing yet for resting that tired and over-stuffed mind.
The life-saving class did splendid work under the instruction of Miss Mitchell, and a large number
of life-saving badges v^ere av/arded.
In the fall quarter the two meets stimulated the swimmers into action. The classes competed in
diving, form, and fifty and hundred-yard dashes, in the first meet the Sophomores came out with first
place, as they usually do. The Freshmen came second and the Juniors came third. In the second meet
the Sophomores won again, leaving the second place to the Seniors and the third one to the Freshmen.
The special swimming feature of the second quarter was the water pageant, "The Big Catch." It
was quite timely with Virginia Milner as the Prince of Whales, Kay Kennedy as Wally Wharf-eel, and

THROUGH
Cold or warm weather, the hiking went on. Lucy hiill Doty was hiking manager, and she not only hiked
from Decatur with "A. A. Apples" but also led organized hikes to pretty spots around Decatur and
Atlanta. hHottentots also enjoyed short informal hikes which she instigated, as well as the early morn-
ing hike to Atlanta.
The dancing classes underthe splendid
supervision of Miss h^aynes attempted
to develop the students' aesthetic
sense. The good results of their work
were seen in the Dance Program pre-
sented in February. They waltzed to the
strains of Schubert and Strauss' "The
Blue Danube," and made Tanagra Fig-
ures to Bach. Then, other phases of
their dancing were seen in a Polka, A
Mazurka, and a Gypsy Dance.

MINOR SPORTS
The indoor sports were made very inviting, so that
every girl wanted to become skilled in them. A large
number attempted the comparatively new sport, bad-
minton, and the results were surprising (pleasantly). ^"" Garrett and Ruth Albion in a game of badminton.
It does not take much energy to play badminton, but it does require skill and alertness.
Another popular indoor sport is ping-pong. We feel that much was accomplished in it, because
the much announced and talked of tournament of last year was completed. Mutt Fite and Flora Mc-
Guire were the winners. The ping-pong table in Murphey Candler is always in use even dates may
participate.

Minor sports have a major interest for many girls, especially in the fall and spring when everybody
feels an urge to be out of doors. Eight tennis courts keep busy with amateurs and champions be-
tween the rainy spells that seem to haunt the tournaments. The doubles championship was played
off in the fall, and was won by Ellen Stuart and
Mary Nell Taylor. The singles semi-finals were
still going on when we went to press, due to the
difficulties of April weather and the number of
entries in the tourney of this popular sport.
Other eyes are kept on golf balls during pleas-
ant hours at East Lake Country Club. The hockey
field serves for stroke practice before the fans
indulge in tournaments. Then their matches are
wonders to behold, but more important as oppor-
tunities for fun and exercise for the participants.

as this sort of runaway from the perplexities of life
and the roommate true recreation.
Riding
In the late spring the advanced class usually participates in the horse show which is given by the
academy. All these combined attractions make riding one of the best liked "courses" offered in the
fall and spring quarters. The rides to and from the academy in just plain automobiles are not to be
sneezed at either, even if you are just a beginner and feel as if you are riding for a fall.

CAMERA CONTEST
The snapshot editor was a trifle worried at the apparent dearth of snapshots and kodak fans at the first
of school. Maybe the Freshmen, her old standbys were too busy gettins oriented and adjusted to
the aims of a liberal arts college. Anyhow, after Christmas
holidays there was a sudden deluge of any and everything in
the kodak line, and we had a knockdown dragout fight trying
to decide the winnahs. To be exact and precise I 10 master-
pieces were entered.
The judges' struggle resulted in a final decision on Mary
Madison Wisdom's interpretation of dormitory life. The pic-
ture was just too typical, so the gigantic sum of $3.00 was
awarded to the aspiring photographer.
Mutt Fife, the girl with the kodak complex, had her eye
open for a tricky campus shot and turned in this job on the
Quadrangle. Result: Second prize. And it proves that time
on your hands is a financial asset.

LIFE GOES TO
SEVERAL PARTIES
When life begins (usually before 8:40) on the campus, parties
of every description are very much in vogue, so the cameraman
caught these guests and entertainers to be featured in campus
life. At the first of the year Y. W. C. A. gives a smart affair
to greet the Freshmen. This year the annual fight with the
v/eather man was won, and it was given from start to finish
in the Alumnae Garden, in spite of the clouds.

The ghastly spectre of Bluebeard's wives is a

Sophomores and their dates. Bobbing for ap-

scared the ghosts of other days when the Mur-

one night at least.
The Junior Class tradition of entertaining va-
rious hiims at their banquet brought the usual
thrills, corsages, and visitors (male) to the campus.
Something to live for and something to look back
on, this party is really the life!

And just as the Freshmen were besinning

own, they began to hear thunder in the east
(Main is east of Inman), and rumors of the
Black Cat Contest, whatever that might be.
They definitely found out, and by the sweat

"A Cutting Romance" captured the coveted

This being the month for Sophomore-

November Classes well under way, and we were offered thrills
and such by the Emory soph-freshman pushball classic, hm-n-n.
And on the 6th, the campus became a glorified kindergarten,
as the Seniors had their last childish fling before assuming the
awful grandeur of caps and gowns. Graduates to be or not to
be, now that is a question! Investiture came the next day with
an address by Miss Leyburn, and the month ended with a grand
finale taking place in the infirmary. But it was a wonderful
Thanksgiving.
Slowly but surely we plodded through the first quarter exams,
and by a great effort managed to survive the intervening week
before Christmas. Main and Inman had nightly funerals as the
days before we-go-to-the-station-back-to-civilization passed by.

Juniors watched the Seniors sympathetically
as they were also preparing a stupendous pro-
gram for February. The process by which every
organization and every person gets involved in
MARDI GRAS is as complicated as a political
campaign, and a lot more fun.
Class kings presented in skits arouse class spirit
for penny votes, the winnah takes the throne at
the carnival, and the Juniors take in the cash.
Floats carrying out the theme "It pays to ad-
vertise" flooded the gym with everything from
soap flakes to steakbones.
Prize for the most beautiful went to the Ago-

llu MIKADO
Cherry blossom time of Gilbert and Sullivan Japan
rivaled the beauties of Atlanta's dogwood this
spring in the Glee Club's production of "The
Mikado" April 1-2. Fans and wigs, kimonos and
sandals gave the fitting atmosphere for the oper-
etta, skillfully directed by Mr. Johnson, h^is an-
nual presentation of a Gilbert and Sullivan oper-
etta has become one of the well-known traditions
long awaited as well as long practiced. From the
Lord hligh Executioner down to the last member of
the chorus perfection is reached after five months
practice. Caroline Armistead and Annie Houston
Newton sang the role of Yum-Yum; Virginia Kyle was
Pitti-Sing; Jane Moore hiamilton and Betty Kyle
Peep-Bo; while Amelia Nickels and Jane Moses
rivaled in the terrifying role (and make-up) of
Katisha. Male leads were sung by the following:
The Mikado, Leiand Mackey and Eugene Trabor;
Nanki Poo, Edwin Everett; Ko-Ko, the Lord High
Executioner, Richard Smoot; Pooh-bah (Lord High
Everything Else), Jack Bagwell; Pish-Tush, Don White.

THE BUSINESS STAFF
wishes to express its apprecia-
tion to the advertisers and other
friends who, by their support,
have made possible this issue
of the
SILHOUETTE
Pase 195
J,
yt avvteciatian
rr
The yearbook's publication and hoped for success is made
possible through the contributions of countless friends, only
a few of whom are included in the staff. In the belief that
sincerity erases any element of triteness, we express ap-
preciation first of all to Agnes Scott College for invaluable
material to begin our foundations on. To every student who
has taken pictures to aid us in completing this year's pic-
torial record, who has patiently held floodlights for room-
mate staff members in numbers of time exposures, and who
has accommodated the editors by frequent poses at all
hours, we are deeply grateful. The toleration and under-
standing of our invasions of faculty quarters we also wish
to acknowledge, along with the support and sympathy of
the administration which any student activity must and
does have behind it.
Off the campus Mr. and Mrs. C. R. Elliott of Elliott's
Peachtree Studio; Miss hielen Morgan and Mr. Walter Dar-
gan of Photo Process Engraving Co.; and Mr. Charles W.
Young of Foote & Davies Co., through their personal inter-
est and cooperation, have followed through and developed
our efforts to make the I 938 SILHOUETTE truly representa-
tive of Agnes Scott.
THE EDITOR.
