Through all the years since her foundation, Agnes Scott has remained a
Liberal Arts institution. Believing in the permanence of true culture, the
eternal value of the Arts and Sciences, and the need for a thorough
general education upon which to base all further learning, we proudly
present Agnes Scott, a pure Liberal Arts college.

OUR PRESIDEH

Dr. McCain

The door to Dr. McCain's oflFice in Buttrick Hall is always open to
students, whether just for a friendly visit or for talking over some
perplexing problem. Students appreciate his deep interest in their activi-
ties, as evidenced by his attendance at all coffees, vesper programs,
athletic events, musicales, and many such campus functions. The
Freshmen know him best as the inspirational leader of their Bible Class.

Besides his duties as college president, Dr. McCain holds many other
important offices, most of which can be found in "Who's Who in
America" since he is a nationally known educator and religious leader.
He is a senator of the United Chapters of Phi Beta Kappa, a member
of the General Education Board of New York, the chairman of the
Committee on Cooperation for the Southern University Conference,
the chairman of the Committee on New Members for the Southern
Association of Colleges and Secondary Schools, and also a Moderator
for the Senate of Georgia for the Presbyterian Church.

Dr. McCain's influence is vitally felt at Agnes Scott. To students
and alumnae he typifies the best of the college ideals.

ADMinSTRATIOI

Mr. S. G. Stukes is Dean of the Faculty, Registrar,
and a professor of Psychology. His jolly laugh and
real interest in each student have endeared him to the
whole student body. Seniors are especially glad to ask
his help and advice in obtaining positions after grad-
uation, and underclassmen know him better through
his lectures in Psychology.

The task of managing the school business belongs
to Mr. R. B. Cunningham, who is always ready for a
pleasant chat with any of the Agnes Scott girls as
well as being an extremely capable business manager.

Our official treasurer is Mr. J. C. Tart. He also has
charge of the bookstore and helps students keep their
accounts straight in the student bank. Many girls are
grateful for the advice he gives willingly on the
fundamentals of keeping an account, even for such a
thing as endorsing checks properly.

The Admissions Committee of the Faculty, headed
by Miss Alexander, assists freshmen in choosing their
courses and taking the I'ight amount of work, and
sees that they have the proper entrance requirements,
while the Committee of Electives, whose chairman is
Mr. Holt, aids upperclassmen in choosing major and
minor subjects, in electing subjects to harmonize with
their chosen course, and in checking their class stand-
ing.

and beauty with efficiency. A large part ol
her work is deahng with Freshmen and the
many problems that the first year invariably
brings. Though the Freshmen proudly claim
her as their own Inman housemother, upper-
classmen also find Miss Hunter a real friend,
deeply interested in their affairs.

Miss Isabella Wilson, secretary to the Dean
of Students, and Miss Lou Pate, secretary to
the Dean of Faculty, assist in the Dean's
Office in approving sign-out slips, keeping
records of schedules, dates, and cuts, and in
numerous other ways. "Bella" and "Lou," as
they are known to the girls, wait up cheer-
fully until all those coming in from late
"dance permissions" are back at school.

Miss Scamhctt cntcbcs up on sonic of her enormous
correspondence.

Perhaps the place on campus best known to
the most people is the "Dean's Office" in
Main Building. Llere are handled all social
affairs, as well as varied personal matters,
such as rooming problems, sending tele-
grams, or even ordering taxis. All four of
the staff of the Dean's Office, a term which
includes the Dean, her staff', and the actual
office itself, arc graduates of Agnes Scott
and thus work in complete understanding
not only of the girls but also of the ideals of
the college.

Miss Carrie Scandrett, Dean of Students,
is the one to whom any girl could go with
any problem, feeling sure of sympathetic
support and the best possible advice. Al-
though always busy with the many duties
of her position, still she manages to give
individual attention to any problem, how-
ever trivial, brought to her in her office in
Main or in her Buttrick Flail office. Miss
Scandrett graciously opens her West Lawn
apartment for various retreats and social
gatherings and is beloved for her friendly
smile and cheerful wink.

The Assistant Dean of Students, Miss
Charlotte Fiunter, was May Queen when a
student here; she combines that calm poise

American Literature is MISS ANNIE MAY CHRISTIE'S
favorite, especially Nineteenth Century novels and essays. An-
other valuable contribution she makes to the campus is her
work with the Admissions Committee, which helps freshmen
with the academic problems they are likely to have.

MISS CLARA MORRISON, Agnes Scott's new addition to
the English department this year, likes linguistics. Her English
Literature classes have done much to make her known and
liked already on campus. MISS GRACE WALKER, a fellow-
ship worker in the department, devotes the main part of her
work to the freshmen, in teaching grammar. They find her
very sympathetic with their view point as a recent graduate
herself, and a willing helper for their troubles.

MISS FRANCES GOOCH heads the Spoken English de-
partment, helping the Agnes Scott students to develop pie
speaking voices. She enjoys work

rective speech, and diction, and gets most pleasure from dramatics.
Her work with Blackfriars, directing, advising, and training has helped
them to produce such contiiniously excellent productions. At one time
Miss Gooch taught Madame Chiang Kai-Shek with private lessons at
Wesleyan College.

Miss Gooch is assisted by MISS ROBERTA WINTER. Besides being
an author herself. Miss Winter is skilled in play productions, in which
field she helps with all the Blackfriars productions, from properties and
ound effects to stage make-up. Miss Winter is interested, too, in radio
program work.

ches. One of her main interests is the Graeco-Roman civilization, espe-
cially as it affects western civilization.

MISS SUSAN COBBS has quickly become a favorite on campus as a
teacher of Latin and Greek. This is her first year here, having tau;

HISTORY

History courses have always been among the most popular at Agnes
Scott. The college is indeed privileged to have sucii an excellent staflf in
this Department. MR. PHILIP DAVIDSON, Professor of History, does
not confine his work on the campus to teaching. He is the chairman
of the Advanced Standing Committee and has worked a great deal
toward the establishment of the University Center program. Last .Jariu-
ary his book, Propugaiiilii ,mi! the American Reiohitkiii, was published.
He is now working on The History of the Eighteenth Century South.

MISS ELIZABETH JACKSON'S special field is English History. In
teaching history, she is careful to emphasize the cultural side of the
civilization studied. Besides her interests in school activities, Miss Jack-
son does a great deal of work in the American Association of University
Women. She is now Southeastern Director of the A. A. U. W., as it is
known familiarly, and was instrumental in having Pierre van Paasen
lecture here at Agnes Scott under the A. A. U. W.'s auspices.

Associate Professor FLORENCE E. SMITH is interested primarily in
the study of government and politics. Her class lectures are always
clearly outlined and well-planned. Active in some of the civil govern-
ment groups nearby. Miss Smith is often called upon to make various
speeches in Atlanta. The Electives Committee and String Ensemble also
make heavy demands upon her time here upon campus.

MRS. CATHERINE STRATEMAN SIMS is a very popular member
of the History Department. By demand of the students she leads weekly
discussions on current affairs. Chapel is always crowded for her
weekly talks on the progress of the war. Her class in International
Relations has won for her the admiration and respect of all who have
taken it. Mrs. Sims takes infinite care and much time in marking out
the daily war progress on the Library maps with colored pins, a service
much appreciated by the campus.

B IK L E

The students find the Bible Department very Interesting as well
as informative. This department helps add not only religious

campus. The study of Bible is required for graduation and con-
sidered a fundamental part of education. MRS. ALMA SYDENS-
TRICKER, who heads the department, is recognized as a leader
in spiritual activities in Decatur. She has a scholarly interest in
ancient language and traditions which was responsible for some
of her archaeological research in the Holy Land. Mrs. Sydens-
tricker is very interested in all students and tries to have every
possible personal contact with them. Before coming to Agnes
Scott, Mrs. Sydenstricker was Acting Dean of Women in a
college in Mississippi and also taught history. Part of her activi-
ties in Decatur have consisted in teaching the Women's Bible
Club; and in Chatauqua, N. Y., where she spends much vacation
time with her family, Mrs. Sydenstricker is vice-president of
the ^'oman's Club. Students respect her learning greatly, and
many a freshman and new student has been told by admiring
upperclassmen that "Mrs. Sydenstricker has read the Bible in a
dozen different languages!"

Mr. Gilli'ipie iiinl Mrs. Syihmtricker emphasize the importance of a geographical
backgroiinJ in Bible Sttnly.

MR. J. F. GILLESPIE specializes in the Old Testament studies. His
class lectures are carefully planned, following closely an organized
syllabus. Mr. Gillespie is also pastor of several Home Mission churches
in the Atlanta Presbytery. He lives near-by in Decatur, but in the
summer Mr. Gillespie conducts regular services m his home-state. North
Carolina. He and his charming wife are frequent guests of the students
for meals in the dining hall and other student social affairs, such as
Sundav coffees.

THE L I II R nn

It seems to each student that she spends most of her time in the
Library. For this reason everyone appreciates the pleasant atmos-
phere which the capable staff provides. Under the direction of MISS
EDNA RUTH HANLEY, the Library is managed in an efficient
way. She is always willing to look for some obscure reference which
a student may need, and she does it with little difficulty. She is

interested in library plans, having helped to design this Library, and
having written a book on the architectural plans of various libraries
in the United States.

Assistants to the Librarian are MISS AGNESS REAGAN, MISS
MARGARET WEIR, and MISS LAURA COLVIN.

As a liberal arts school, Agnes Scott naturally has fine departments in
music and art, some knowledge of which is necessary for well-rounded
cultural development.

Mr. Jnhiixji! s/,-ps briskly oier to Prcssrr Hell.

MISS LOUISE GARLAND LEWIS, teacher of art, enjoys all types
of art. Usually while painting each new picture, she believes it to be
the most enjoyable one she has done yet. Besides art instruction in oils,

in art history and appreciation illustrated with many slides for the
benefit of those interested in art but without any marked creative talent
along those lines. She has travelled widely and actually seen many oi
the great masterpieces about which she lectures, and she can give many
interesting anecdotes which help to fasten the pictures in the students'
minds. Some of Miss Lewis' own work is on exhibition in the library
affording much pleasure to students and visitors, and she also helps and
advises the Pen and Brush Club.

MR. C. W. DIECKMANN, head of the Music Department, is in-
terested especially in organ and piano music, fiis own compositions arc
widely known, and one of the hymns he composed has become a fa-
vorite for use here at chapel time. On some occasions he treats us to
some of his works at recitals or meditative periods at chapel. String
Ensemble is grateful to him for his direction and the arrangements
which they use in their recitals.

MR. LEWIS JOHNSON, Voice Professor, directs Glee Club, the
College Choir, and Special Chorus. Girls look forward with delight to
the programs he puts on with these groups from time to time during
chapel. Mr. Johnson also lends his invaluable services to the Glee Club
when they prepare to put on their rnnual operetta in the spring.

An assistant teacher of piano, MISS ADA BARTHOLOMEW, some-
times joins in recitals with Mr. Dieckmann. Their double piano work
is excellent and very much enjoyed by all who hear it. Miss Bartholo-
mew comes out from town to give lessons here.

HHOLOGY

MISS MILDRED RUTHERFORD MELL, Professor of Economics and Soci-
ology, came to Agnes Scott in 193 9. Prior to this time she was Dean of Women
at Shorter College in Rome, Georgia. To her the fields of Family Welfare and
Labor are intensely interesting. Students too, are particularly interested in
Labor now that it means so much to our country and its right to strike is
in grave danger. She works actively with Sociology groups throughout the
state and is a member of the Board of Directors in the Social Planning Coun-
cil. On the Council she is also Chairman of the Research Committee and
Chairman of the Family-Child Care division. In addition to these many ac-
tivities, Miss Mell lias this year been working on the Admissions Committee.

BEPARTMEiT OF M A T H E M AT I H

Because of tlie able instructors and because the coming
of war has increased greatly the demand for mathe-
maticians, there is great interest in this department.
The Profressor of Mathematics is CAPTAIN HENRY
A. ROBINSON, who on account of active service at
Fort McPherson, has been unable to continue his class
teaching. He still finds time to attend some campus
functions and to play in the String Ensemble.

MISS LESLIE JANET GAYLORD, Assistant Pro-
fessor, has taken over a great part of the classes which
Captain Robinson was forced to give up. She is an
e.\cellent teacher, and her patience and her careful
explanations of problems make her a favorite with all
students. She has served on the Admissions Commit-
tee, and is ever ready to give ear to bewildered fresh-

This year MISS ANN VANN came to the Agnes
Scott faculty as Instructor in Mathematics. She came
to us from Queen's College in North Carolina, where
she taught Mathematics and Business Mathematics,
and she holds a master's degree from Columbia Uni-
versity. In the spring Miss Vann gave a course here
in Business Mathematics.

OD PHILOSOPHY

MR. S. GUERRY STUKES, Professor of Psychology, is also Dean of
the Faculty and Registrar. An informal atmosphere prevails in his ad-
vanced classes as well as in his introductory course in Psychology. He
is never too busy to discuss current world problems with any girl who
is interested, as he himself is. Every senior looks to him for aid in
securing a position after graduation from Agnes Scott. His jolly laugh
is one of the memories which students hold long after they leave the
college.

MISS KATHERINE OMWAKE, Assistant Professor of Psychology
and Education, mtroduces many students to the field of Psychology.
Her advanced classes in Applied and Experimental Psychology prepare
students for careers in some phase of advertising. She gained valuable
knowledge for her Child Psychology course through her actual experi-
ence in working with a children's playground.

PSYCHOLOGY,
EllllUTIOi

MISS EMILY DEXTER is an Associate Professor of Psychology and
Education. She is renowned on the campus for her dry sense of humor.
She offers a course in the History of Philosophy for those who are
interested in the gre-it thinkers of the past and how they have fore-
shadowed those of today. Gradnig systems, st.uistics. and intelligence
tests have a particular fascination for her, ana she takes active part in
the reform work of the communities of Decatur and Atlanta. The text-
book. All hilrohictioii to the fielJs of Psychology, used by many col-
leges, is the product of the joint collaboration of Miss Dexter and
Miss Omwake.

Dr. Join-i checks a case history uith Miss Heuitt
and Miss Dunbar.

E D I n L .

DR. EUGENIA C. JONES, the Resident Physician and Professor of
Hygiene, who has the task of supervising the health of the girls, is
greatly admired and respected by the campus. She has proved to be
capable and understanding in the many difficulties that arise in such
a job. She had been practicing for several years before she came to
Agnes Scott after having obtained her degree from Johns Hopkins Uni-
versity. Dr. Jones lives here on the campus and takes an active part in
several of the campus sports, but riding seems to be her favorite.

Assisting Dr. Jones at the infirmary are MISS CAROLYN HEWITT
and MISS CAROLYN DUNBAR. Although both are new to the
campus this year, they have been very efficient and popular with their
patients. Their sympathy and kindness have made any stay in the in-
firmary a pleasant interlude.

MISS LLENX'ELLYN WTLBURN, Associate Professor in
the Physical Education Department is a great asset to the
campus her sincere interest in the students and her cheer-
fulness help to relieve many a girl from the worries of the
classroom. Although her special interest is golf. Miss Wil-
burn coaches the hockey teams and also works with the
basketball teams.

MRS. HARRIETTE HAYNES LAPP, Assistant Professor,
is in charge of the dancing classes, which also includes some
of the dances for May Day. She encourages her classes to
better po;ture by her own graceful and natural movement.
Another field of Mrs. Lapp's activities is swimming, and her
classes have the benefit of an indoor, tiled pool.

same time means business in her classes. Students plead to have her join them in their
sports.

Some of the dancing classes are under the direction of MISS EUGENIE LOUISE
DOZIER. Her classes in Modern, Social, and Eolk dancing are very popular. The
great responsibility of planning and producing an effective May Day goes to Miss
Dozier.

MISS BLANCHE MILLER and MISS FRANCES McCALLA are Miss MacDougall's
assistants. "Bee" is interested in comparative anatomy and technique, while "Frank's"
special interest is in the field of Invertebrate Zoology. Working in the Biology De-

worker in Biology. She gives most of her time to assisting in the Freshman lab.

The Associate Profes;or of Botany, MR. ERNEST HOCKING RUNYON, enjoys
work with the plants in his hothouse. The slime molds and the physiology of plants
can also be added to the list of his particular interests. One of the most enjoyable
features of his course is the field trips on which he takes his students.

other varied campus activities make him one of the most pop-
ular teachers on the campus. As a member of the Eloctives
Committee, Mr. Holt helps the upperclassmen each year in their
choice of courses. His assistant, MRS. DAVIS, a newcomer to
the faculty as laboratory instructor in this department, has
made many friends among faculty and students.

MISS PHILIPPA GILCHRIST, Associate Professor of Chem-
istry, does most of her work with the advanced students. She
is admired for being systematic, calm, and patient in explaining
her work to others.

DR. SCHUYLER M. CHRISTIAN enjoys working in his
special fields. Physics and Astronomy. His course in the History
of Science is one of the most popular courses in this field. His
quiet humor and kindliness have gained for him widespread
popularity, and Mortar Board claims much of his time as one
of their sponsors. His little daughter is the mascot for the
Senior Class.

In the Middle Ages the sciences of Arithmetic,
Geometr}^ and Astronomy were considered three
of the Liberal Arts. With our broadened knowl-
edge of science and the dependence of our civili-
zation upon its accomplishments, Physics, Chem-
istry and Biology are today also important con-
stituents of the Liberal Arts.

Agnes Scott is proud of its fine Science De-
partment. From the Biology museum on the
third floor to the Library on the first floor, the
Science Hall offers the campus ample opportu-
nity to become acquainted with the various
branches in this field. Although only a Bachelor
of Arts degree is offered, many students select
Chemistry, Physics, Biology, Astronomy or any
of the Pure Sciences for their major or minor
subjects.

At last it came. We never thought it would. This is
Our Year, from the moment we stepped back on
campus in the fall, from the moment we handed in
our names as they were to be written on the sheep-
skin, through the frolics of Little Girl's Day and the
dignified solemnity of our Investiture, through May
Day and Senior Opera, and finally through exams, a
whirl of Senior parties, and Commencement; it has
all been our year. Our experiences have been deepened
by a sense of class fellowship, welded fast by the
previous years. We end it feeling that Our Year has
been a good year.

TMJisiEISIIIil CIISI

Music, one of the "quadrlvium" of the Liberal
Arts, is an integral part of our campus life. Turn-
ing to music for enjoyment and release from the
tension of modern life, stvident demand has re-
sulted in the expansion of musical facilities at
Agnes Scott. Since last year it has been possible
to minor in Music. Training is offered for voice,
piano, theory, orchestral instruments and organ
on one of the largest and newest organs in the
South. Membership in String Ensemble and the
Glee Club is voluntary. Moreover, the whole
campus can benefit from the Music Department
by hearing the various voice, orchestra, piano
and organ recitals; the Christmas carols; by
studying the course in the history of opera, and
by attending the bi-monthly lecture-concerts of
Mr. Hodgson and Mr. Dieckmann.

With the actual taking of pictures in the early fall, the plans for the
1942 Silhouette, made partially last spring and summer, began to
materialize. Mr. Ware, the man with the camera, seemed to be on hand
for all occasions which we wanted to keep as vital memories. Julia Ann
Patch, editor, and her two assistants. Doc Nabers and Suenette Dyer,
were overwhelmed with schedules, reams of copy, plans that had to
be changed at the last minute, typing, and consultations with the
printer and the engraver. Members of the staff were given instruc-
tions to stop faculty members on their way to class, to interrupt
classes, plays, athletics; anything to "get that picture!" With it all,
we hope to pack into the small space between two covers a vivid
recollection of this whole momentous year as it passed at Agnes Scott.

Dot and Suenette get a big kick out of looking over some pictures
with Catherine and Ruth.

The Business Staff, under Mary Robertson, worked steadily and faithfully throughout
the year, getting ads when ads were extremely hard to get and doing a thorough job
in spite of their obstacles, with little general recognition.

The convention in Atlanta in the spring was attended only by the editor, but in
November, both the editor and the business manager went to take part in the national
convention in St. Louis, Mo., finding it a helpful and stimulating experience.

To record weekl)' the important events of the campus, including social, academic, ath-
letic news, to follow the rapid course of current events, and to inform the campus of
all coming events is no easy task for a newspaper. Yet the Agnes Scott Ncii's does all
this and more; in the editorials all phases of campus life are touched upon, and student
opinion is expressed in the column "Campus Quotes." Eagerly read by faculty and
students alike every Wednesday afternoon, the Ncirs has become an integral part of
campus life.

In the fall the News sent a representative to the National Scholastic Press Associa-
tion convention in St. Louis to exchange ideas with college newspapers from all over
the country on editorial and business methods. When the state-supported colleges of

THE Al RO Rii

The Aurora is Agnes Scott's literary magazine. It is the only publication
here on campus to devote itself purely to creative writing. Members of
B. O. Z. and Poetry Club contribute many of their works to the Aurora,
but anyone, from senior to freshman, is urged to submit some of his work
to the editor. Through the Aurora, students have the opportunity to display
their short stories, their essays, poems, short dramas, and critical works to
the college community for its enjoyment. They have the benefit of campus
opinion and criticism. Campus artists illustrate the Aurora and design its
cover. This year Editor Edith Dale saved up contributions throughout the
whole year and published one comprehensive issue in the spring instead of
one issue during each quarter as had previously been done.

The Aurora is the oldest publication on campus,
and it has been published continuously since its be-
ginning. In spite of rising costs and the desire to cut
down on activities during the emergency, it was de-
cided to keep the Aurora as an essential feature for a
Liberal Arts CoUeee.

concerning its literary ability. Betty Sunderland, this

Before Agnes Scott officially opened in
September, the members of the executive
committee of Student Government had
a retreat at Harrison Hut, making plans
and appointing committees for the year.

Student Government had charge of
orientation program for the freshmen and
transfer students. This year a new phase
of orientation was introduced, that of
having "Sophomore Helpers" to aid the
sponsors from the Junior Class. The ori-
entation program also brought the hand-
book classes to the new students to teach
them the "do's and don'ts" of Agnes
Scott. When they signed the Student
Government pledge, they became full-
fledged Hottentots.

SSOCIATIOI

Honor Week, sponsored by Student Government, was
one of the highlights on the campus, with chapel pro-
grams all week. There were talks from girls representing
the student body. Ruth Slack spoke for the alumnae,
and Miss Louise Hale was the faculty speaker.

Throughout the year Student Government was in
charge of the Second-hand Book-store. Records were
also bought for the victrola in the Murphy Candler
building. For the domestically inclined the sewing ma-
chine in Main was kept in working condition and the
kitchen in Murphy Candler well-equipped. Ila Belle
Levie, the vice-president, was our fire-chief, and had the
task of waking the boarders for fire drills.

During the Christmas vacation Agnes Scott was rep-
resented at the National Student Federation of America
convention in Minneapolis by President Virginia Mont-
gomery and Secretary Dot Holloran. Delegates were also
sent to the Southern Regional N. S. F. A. meeting at
Louisiana State University in the spring.

The theme of Student Government for this year was
the Agnes Scott Ideal, and the chapel programs were
designed to bring out the four phases of this Ideal: high
intellectual attainment, a simple religious faith, physical
well-being, and the development of a well-integrated
personality.

Christian Association seeks to realize the second emphasis of the Agnes Scott
Ideal: for every member to have a simple religious faith. To integrate its activi-
ties the Association chose for its theme this year, "I am the Way, the Truth,
and the Life."

Christian Association's activities are numerous. Members of the council met
freshmen at the stations and brought them to the' campus when school opened
in September. As part of the orientation program, a picnic was given for these
new students at Harrison Hut.

During Christian Association week at the beginning of the school year, the
purpose, the theme, and opportunities for service were presented to the campus.
Closing this week on Sunday night an inspiring candle-light reconsecration
service was held. The theme was carried out throughout the year in chapel talks
and Sunday night vespers.

Social service activities are an important part of the program. Every Saturday
afternoon students entertain children at the Scottish Rite Hospital. Some girls
teach Sunday School classes at the Decatur negro mission. Others work at the
"Chapel" near the Capitol in cooperation with Columbia Seminary boys. In the
fall Christian Association gave a picnic for the Industrial Girls of Atlanta.

children for whom to play Santa Glaus. The gifts were
taken to the various homes to be opened Ghristmas morn-
ing.

During Ghristmas vacation the National Assembly of
Student Ghristian Associations met in Oxford, Ohio. Frances
Radford was the delegate from Agnes Scott to take part in
the conference.

The Christian Exchange continued to stimulate thought
among the students. It presented opinions from students at
Georgia Tech, Emory University, and Golumbia Seminary
as well as contributions from members of our college com-
munity.

At the beginning of the winter quarter Ghristian Asso-
ciation held a retreat to be attended by interested girls out-
side of the Gabinet. At this retreat the work done in the
previous quarter was re-evaluated, the spiritual needs of the
campus were considered, and plans were made for Religious
Emphasis Week.

Dr. William M. Elliott, Jr., gave inspiration to the
faculty and students during Religious Emphasis week,
February 17-21, through his addresses in Ghapel. Through-
out this week the emphasis was placed on meaningful
Ghristian living.

Various denominational groups, the Freshman and Sopho-
more Gabinets, and the Ghapel Group work under Ghris-
tian Association and are a part of it. Through the Ghristian
Gouncil, consisting of representatives of these various
groups, all religious organizations on campus have the op-
portunity to work together.

One of the most active and influential societies of Agnes
Scott is the Mortar Board, a national honor society. Scholar-
ship, leadership, service and senior class standing are the
requirements for election.

This year the president of Mortar Board attended the
national convention, which is only held every four years
and was held this year at Buckhill Falls, Pennsylvania. The
recognition service, held in the fall, had for its speaker Jean
Bailey, an alumna of Agnes scott and herself a member of
Mortar Board.

Mortar Board started its many activities with a tea on
the quadrangle after Class Day exercises last spring. The

Service Program for this year was planned shortly after the
opening of school during a retreat held at Miss Scandrett's
home. It stimulated social life on the campus with a picnic
and treasure hunt for the transfers in October at Harrison
Hut; with a freshman party given in conjunction with the
Emory O. D. K.'s; with a formal sophomore party in the
fall; and with a formal freshman party in the winter.
Mortar Board sponsored an "Activities Table" in the
Library so that the college community might be informed
about the work and interests of various organizations, and
it helped to sponsor various Lectures and Musicales. It co-
operated with International Relations Club in presenting

The marriage classes for seniors are sponsored every year by Mortar
Board, which procures the best possible speakers on many different aspects
of marriage. This year Mortar Board also brought Miss Osborne to the
campus, a speaker on charm, not only in dress and general appearance, but
also in manners, attitude, and personality.

Phi Beta Kappa is a national honorary
01 s^inization which seeks to foster high
ideils in scholarship. The Beta Chapter of
Georgia was established at Agnes Scott
College on March 23, 1926. It was the
102nd institution to receive a charter and
the 9th college for w^omen. The purpose
of Phi Beta Kappa is set forth in the
Constitution of United Chapters: "To
recognize and encourage scholarship,
friendship, and cultural interests."

Since the foundation of the chapter
sixteen years ago at Agnes Scott College,
over two hundred members have been
elected. Elections are made twice each
school year in January and in May. Sen-

obtained recognition in special fields are
eligible for election to membership.

The students elected in January from
the class of 1942 are: Billie Gammon
Davis, Susan Arnette Dyer, Mary Jeanne
Osborne, and Julia Ann Patch. Miss Mar-
jorie Hope Nicholson, the contemporary
president of the national organization and
the first woman to hold this office, ad-

The first of the four principles of the
Agnes Scott Ideal is .i higher intellec-
tual attainment: "The search for truth,
avoidance of shams and short-cuts,
maintenance of the honor system, fear-
lessness of purpose, and efficiency in
every duty." The distinction of being
named to the Honor Roll is given to
those girls who attain an excellent
scholastic average. These students play
an important part in upholding this
first part of the Ideal.

Eta Sigma Phi is a national honorary society formed for the purpose of furthering interest
in the classics. Eligibility for membership is based on scholastic achievement in Latin
or Greek.

The Alpha Chapter was established at Agnes Scott by Frances Craighead, now Mrs.
Dwyar of Atlanta, who became its first president. Mrs. Dwyar was invited back to the
college in December to attend a Christmas tea at the home of Miss Torrance in honor
of the new members. She spoke informally on "The Pleasure and Privilege of Member-
ship in Eta Sigma Phi." All Latin and Greek students and alumnae members of the
society were invited to meet Mrs. Dwyar. Instead of their annual banquet in the winter,
Eta Sigma Phi used the money for the banquet to buy a defense bond to be given to the
college toward establishing a scholarship.

To encourage the study of Latin in the local high schools. Eta Sigma Phi awards
annually a medal to the outstanding student in each high school class in Vergil.

Young scientists of Chi Beta Phi at Agnes Scott are proud to claim their membership
in the Alpha Sigma Chapter which has the distinction of being the first women's chapter
of this national honorary scientific society. It is further distinguished by having a senior,
Betty Ann Brooks, elected as the national second vice-president of the organization.
Members are elected twice a year on the basis of active interest and scholastic achieve-
ment in any one of the sciences: Biology, Chemistry, Physics, Astronomy, Mathematics,
or Psychology. The formal initiation banquet in the fall and the initiation picnic in the
spring are memorable events to the new members.

Several outstanding scientists in their field were invited to speak at the meetings:
Dr. Hamm of Atlanta presented an illustrated talk on Plastic Surgery; Dr. Schuyler
Christian spoke on the "History of Science." Through the use of the Biology depart-
ment's new motion picture machine, the members were able to see instructive films on
natural history subjects.

At the end of the year Chi Beta Phi presents a scholarship key to the member who
has done outstanding work in her field of science. She is chosen, in addition, for leader-
ship, service to the chapter, and general promise.

Blackfriars, the first club on the Agnes Scott campus, was begun in 1915 at the sug-
gestion of Dr. Gaines in order to organize the various dramatic activities of the school.
Miss Margaret Phythian, now a French professor here, was one of the first members of
the club.

The membership, which has now been limited to forty, is divided into two parts.
For regular dramatic membership, one must have had basic speech, or must be taking
it and must be admitted by tryout before Miss Gooch and an executive board. A new
feature this year is the technical membership. To be eligible for this, one must work on
the production of one play under the direction of Miss Winter and must then be recom-
mended by her for acceptance.

Blackfrlars has had an outstanding history. In 1928 a play written by a member of
the faculty, won first prize in the World Contest for Amateur Production held in New
York. A complete history of Blackfrlars was recently written by Miss Gooch and was
placed in the cornerstone of Presser Hall.

Among the interesting programs presented at club meetings this year were a talk
by James Weems of the Emory Players on his experience in summer stock, and a lecture
by Mr. James, light technician of Pressor Fiall, on "Stage Setting." Mr. James has done
graduate work in this field and has made some interesting stage models which he used
to illustrate his lecture.

For many years Agnes Scott's friends have been
privileged to enjoy the Glee Club and its associates,
the College Choir and the Special Chorus. These or-
ganizations offer the girls opportunity to participate
in choral work. Under the direction of Mr. Lewis H.
Johnson, they have given many successful programs
at Agnes Scott and in Atlanta.

Perhaps the presentation most eagerly awaited was
the annual Christmas Carol service sung in Presser
Auditorium by the College Choir, the largest of the
three groups. This year it was assisted by the Geor-

Herbert.

The Special Chorus is a smaller group of trained
voices selected by Mr. Johnson. Besides singing at the

The campus may well feel proud of the group
of young artists who call themselves the Pen
and Brush Club, for their chief contribution
has been the many beautiful posters which have
appeared during the year. Membership in the
club is open to Art students by invitation and
to all students by tryout.

Pen and Brush has been trying something
new in activities this year. The members felt
a rc.il need of emphasizing the practical fields
of Art which are not offered by the Art de-
partment. They held their special meetings open
to all who were interested. One meeting was
devoted to "The Art of Dressing" at which
Joyce, fashion director in an Atlanta depart-
ment store, discussed the principles of costume
design and color. Another meeting was given
over to the subject of interior decoration. Since
most of the members were interested in com-
mercial art, they set aside several meetings for
the discussion of advertising and how to break
into the field.

Under supervision of Miss Lewis, their spon-
sor, the Art department and Pen and Brush
exhibited their year's work in the spring, in-
cluding oil paintings, water colors, sketches,
designs and stencils.

Good music for recreation is the aim of the fourteen
college musicians who are voluntary members of the
String Ensemble, the only unorganized organization
on the campus. Since its formation nine years ago by
its able director, Mr. C. W. Dieckmann, String En-
semble has afforded its musicians many opportunities
for worthwhile and constructive work together.

In the fall they performed on a Monday evening
Music Appreciation program presenting, with Nell
Hemphill at the piano, an arrangement of the first
movement of Grieg's "Concerto." They gave another
recital in the spring. Several members played in the
orchestra which accompanied the Glee Club's pre-
sentation of the Gilbert and Sullivan operetta, "The
Pirates of Penzance."

In 1921 at the suggestion of Dr. Cleo Herron, then professor of history at Agnes
Scott, the Pubhc Lecture Association of Agnes Scott College was organized. Dr.
Herron, the first chairman, was succeeded by Miss Torrance and then by Miss
Laney, who is the present capable and busy chairman.

Faculty and student representatives join together in the work of the Association
to bring the campus into closer contact with the outside world. They have brought
speakers from many varied fields to Agnes Scott. Maurice Hindus, author of several
widely-read books gave as his personal opinion the impossibility of Hitler's con-
quering Russia. Ricardo Alfaro, former president of Panama, spoke of the urgent
need for Pan-American unity. Charles Morgan, eminent British author, spoke on
creative writing. Completely different from the other presentations was the pro-
duction of Shakespeare's "Twelfth Night" by the Chekhov Players who gave the
play in modernistic form, with the characters in costume shifting the scenery to
music. From the field of science came Fay-Cooper Cole to give "An Anthropolo-
gist's View of the Race," dealing
with race problems as they relate to
the present conflict in Europe and
Asia. The series was concluded by
H. S. Ede speaking on the National
Gallery of Art at Washington. He
discussed the relation of a people's
art to their history and philosophy,
illustrating his lecture with slides.

THE BIBLE CLUB

To further the religious interests on the Agnes Scott
campus and to relate the Bible to the present day

interested may become members.

The theme for the year was "Information, Please." By book reviews, outside speakers,
and discussions truly useful to the members, the project of the year was successfully
carried out. Dr. Gillespie, one of the faculty advisers, reviewed a new book whose theme
was the relation of the Bible to the ever-changing world.

Since America's entrance into the war, the club has held together more strongly than
ever. To do her part in bringing peace into this chaotic world is now the thought upper-
most in the mind of each member of this club.

COTILLIIIW
CLUB

The scene is the Murphey Candler Building on the second Tues-
day of the month. The occasion is a formal tea for selection of
the new members for Cotillion Club. The candidates dance with
the members of the club, and each member turns in a report of
the girl, according to her poise, dancing ability, charm, and
general good manners.

During the year, there are informal dances and tea dances. This
year the Cotillion Club instituted something new when it had a
formal Buffet Supper in the Alumnae House, and the girls in-
vited their dates to come.

Of special interest to the whole campus was the fashion show
sponsored by Davison's in which the girls modeled "fashions to
dance in."

The highlight of their meetings was a demonstration and lesson
in the intricate and increasingly popular Rhumba, given by a
pupil of Arthur Murray's dancing school.

"Like mother like daughter" has been proved by the num-
ber of girls who follow in their mothers' footsteps in coming
to Agnes Scott. In 1926, these girls organized the first
social club on the campus, the Granddaughters Club.

Their meetings are held twice a month at the Alumnae
House or at the home of day students as social teas.
The Granddaughters helped entertain the returning

alumnae during Alumnae Weekend on November 27.
The big event of the year was the annual spring banquet
which was held in May. The members invited their dates
for the banquet at Peacock Alley, after which they sepa-
rated into small groups to amuse themselves at whichever
of the numerous entertainments in Atlanta they enjoyed
most.

Besides being the pen name of Charles Dickens, B. O. Z.
is the name of a club whose student members take special
interest in creative writing. Open to membership by try-
out, the club is kept small to admit only girls of unusual
talent, since tryouts are rigidly judged for style and
originality.

B. O. Z. invites no outside speakers. At their delightfully
informal meetings several members read their literary com-

positions, and constructive criticism follows with Miss
Janef Preston, faculty adviser, leading the discussion.

The writing of the members extends into such fields as
the short story, play, radio script, and the personal essay.
The excellent quality of their work can be judged from the
unusual stories and articles they contribute to each issue of
the Aurora, quarterly literary magazine.

Agnes Scott's young poets aiv not fantastic day dreamers,
but are a group of very normal people who call themselves
the Poetry Club. Each year aspiring poets try out for mem-
bership by submitting specimens of their best poetry; the
tryouts being based on freshness of style and originality of
thought.

At the very informal meetings held in the faculty parlor
in Rebecca Scott, each member reads a poem. Helpful criti-
cism is given for each poem in the discussion which follows
led by Miss Laney, faculty adviser of the club.

Each year a distinguished poet is invited to read his
poems at several meetings. This year the members chose
Miss Preston to read hers.

Tangible evidence of the beautiful poems the girls write
is seen in each issue of the Auruni, the quarterly literary
magazine.

The members are, left to right: Dorothy Cremin, Jane

With our own country at war, the International Relations
Club has done much to keep the campus informed about
the world conditions today. The International Relations
Club IS the new name for the old Current History Forum.

This year the club has presented many famous and in-
teresting speakers. Walter Paschall, newspaper and radio
commentator, held a forum on current events; Ernst Jaf-
fray, German refugee student, reviewed the students' edu-
cational situation, and the food situation in Germany; Sir
Eric Underwood, representative of the English-speaking
Union, discussed the problem of the British government
and India; and E. H. Hamilton, a religious missionary from
China, spoke on the religious situation in China.

The Agnes Scott and Emory International Relations
Clubs entertained at a luncheon Count Carlo Sforza, a
leader in the Free Italian movement, who gave several lec-
tures at Emory as the visiting Carnegie Professor of In-
ternational Relations.

The special project for the year was to present the col-
lege with a map of the world suitable for display in the
library to mark the progress of the war each day. The In-
ternational Relations Club also sponsored a Chinese supper
for Chinese war relief, the talks which Mrs. Sims gave in
chapel on current affairs and hef weekly discussions in
which she gave a summary of the week's events.

One of the club's most helpful services to the campus
is posting the daily headlines on the bulletin board in the
library.

PI ALPHA PHI

In May, 1922, Dr. J. D. M. Armistead, professor of English at Agnes
Scott, In a report to the committee of Debating Societies, said that the
society had agreed to discontinue its two Hterary organizations and in
their place to form a debating society known as Pi Alpha Phi. This
organization was cre.ued by and for those who were really interested
in debating for the purpose of stimulating and encouraging debating
in the college. Admission to membership was to be determmed by
tryouts held in the fall and spring of each year.

Under the stimulating leadership of Dr. George P. Hayes, Pi Alpha
Phi is now a growing and progressing organization. At the meetings,
held every first and third Thursday in Murphey Candler, a tournament
was carried on this year. The winners of the final debate were honored
by having their names placed on the Phi Alpha Phi permanent plaque
of awards. In February, Agnes Scott debated Emory on the subject,
"Resolved, That During Time of National Emergency, the Profits of
Corporations Should Be Limited to Six Percent of Invested Capital."
Representatives sent to the annual Milledgeville debate on December 6
tied for second and first places. On March 24 and 2 5 a senior college
team and two junior college teams entered the debates at the annual
meeting of the Southern Association of Teachers of Speech held this
year in Atlanta.

CLUB

A hit of ol.l Friic

ly giilheriiif; of Le Cercle Trancais.

Le Cercle Francais, or the French Club, is one of the main
language clubs on the campus. Its purpose is to acquaint
the members with the customs, literature, and art of
France. With one of the largest memberships of anv
campus group, this club is affiliated with the national
Alliance Francais.

Regular meetings are held in the Murphey Candler build-
ing with varied and interesting programs. Just before the
Christmas holidays, the members of the club sang their
traditional French carols over the campus after dark, carry-
ing their picturesque handmade lanterns made of cardboard

and vari-colored tissue paper. They infected the entire
campus with the Christmas spirit.

One of the interesting assets to the club is the young
French exchange student, Ginette Girardey, who keeps the
members on their toes practicing their oral French. Of in-
terest to all French students was another French visitor,
Madame Arnoux, a famous chanteuse, who gave a fascinat-
ing program of French folk songs throughout the ages.
After her recital, the French Club gave her a reception in
Murphey Candler building.

Because Agnes Scott wanted to do everything pos-
sible to further our War effort, the War Council
was formed this year, a committee consisting of both
faculty and students. Miss Scandrett was the chair-
man of the council, while Mr. Christian, Miss
Hutchens, Miss Smith, and Miss Cobbs headed the
sub-committees. With Mr. Christian worked Polly
Frmk on Black-out problems. They arranged for
practice after practice until everyone on campus
knew what to do and where to go, and every light
could be extinguished immediately. Frances Tucker,
head of President's Council, with which the War
Council was affiliated, had charge of War Relief mat-
ters and material. Miss Hutchens took care of pub-
licity, and Miss Cobbs and Betty Sunderland were in
charge of conservation, such as having boxes for
paper m every dormitory. Seeing that the campus
was fully informed of current events concerning the
war was the task of Miss Smith and Dorothy Kremin.

FIRST illD

Another section of the War effort was the First Aid course.
The standard American Red Cross basic course was offered
in the winter quarter and advanced instruction in the
spring. This was under the Physical Education department,
which offered gym credits for the First Aid course. Certain
members of the campus gave generously of their time in
passing the instructors' exams to be able to relieve the

Decatur instructors and give the courses at times most con-
venient to the girls. Virginia Tuggle, Martha Dale, Miss
Hutchens, and Miss Symms were among those who in-
structed classes. This enabled girls who wished to con-
tinue in war work after school to obtain their official
American Red Cross certificates and avoid losing time
later in having to take this basic course.

"A sound mind in a sound body" has long ex-
isted as a classic ideal. Athletics are a vital part
of our curriculum, giving physical training, re-
laxation from intensive study and preparation
for clear, healthy thinking.

Agnes Scott students must participate in some
sports activities for at least three years. Keen
rivalry and great enthusiasm are aroused on the
whole campus by the inter-class hockey and bas-
ketball games. Horseback riding and dancing are
two more sports that offer training and compan-
ionship. The entire gymnasium department com-
bines its efforts to produce the annual May Day
festival, giving training for it in classes during
the whole Spring Quarter. Regular physical ex-
aminations check the health of every student.
Besides supervised athletics, any girl may make
free use of the extensive gymnasium facilities to
become proficient in her favorite sport whether
it be swimming, badminton, golf, archery, bowl-
ing or ping-pong.

running smoothly

The aim of the Athletic Association
of Agnes Scott is to provide en-
tertainment and recreation for ev-
ery student at Agnes Scott. It has
indeed done a good job of it this
year.

The season had its debut with
one of A. A.'s famous open houses
which was attended by three hun-
dred boys from Georgia Tech, Em-
ory, and Columbia Seminary.

The annual A. A. Fair was held
on October 3 on the hockey field
which became a veritable fair
ground. The Fun-house and throw-
ing darts at Hitler were the most
popular games, while Gay Currie
with her acrobatic horse provided
much laughter and fun for all.
The highlight of the event was the
election of Mary Virginia Evans
as "Miss A. A." She was chosen
for the "poise, posture, and pulchri-
tude" she showed. Barker Ann
Gellerstedt was there to keep every-
thing rolling.

On November 8 the board spent a cold weekend at
Camp Civitania, and soon after A. A. had a superb
skating party with the Georgia Tech Y. M. C. A. at
the RoUerdrome in Atlanta.

Virginia Tuggle took honors this year in the Ten-
nis Singles Tournament held in November. How-
ever the Seniors won the Athletic Cup after an un-
defeated season in hockey and basketball.

Open houses were very popular this year and helped
to enliven the spirits of the girls in many ways.
Swimming, ping pong, horse shoes, darts, and bad-
minton were some of the favorite sports at these
events.

Athletic Association held its final banquet soon
after May Day. It was attended by all of the class
teams, members of sport clubs, and May Day par-
ticipants. The yearly trophies were awarded and
the new officers were officially installed. Thus the
banquet brought a wonderfully successful year to
a close.

BACK H' FOR

"Four o'clock let's get started!" is the call
every Friday afternoon. For that is the time
everyone flocks to the Athletic Field to watch
and play in the Hockey games. Hockey is
the king of fall sports, whether played by the
more energetic souls or just watched by the
sideline enthusiasts. The grandstand is al-
ways packed with friendly rivals lustily cheer-
ing their class on to victory.

This fall the Seniors outdid themselves by
winning every game; Annie Wilds and Mary
Dean Lott were again giving their class team
royal support. The sophs took second place with

Zena Harris and Ruth Farrior as the prodigies
ji the team, and they were only defeated by
the unsurpassable seniors. The "sister" teams
really took the honors. The juniors and fresh-
men gave consistently stiff competition, and
each game proved to be better than the last.

The annual Faculty-Varsity game was held
as usual at the end of the season, and after
a tough tussle, the Faculty was at last able
to conquer a 2-0 victory over the Varsity.

1942 will stand out as a suc-
cessful year at Agnes Scott because
evenly matched teams and spectac-
ular playing kept the scores close
and the class spirit at high tension.
The seniors played consistently well
throughout and won the champion-
ship. Running a close second were
the sophomores, and the freshmen
placed third. The varsity whipped
the sub-varsity in an exciting game
on February 27 and the annual
Brown Jug Tourney wound up the
season on March 5, with the fac-
ulty, dormitories, day students and
cottages playing against one an-
other.

BASKETBALL

"Fall through," "walking with the ball," and "shoot" are
probably the most frequently used terms in basketball.
They may be incomprehensible to someone who knows
nothing about the game, but they ring a familiar and
loving note to any basketball enthusiast from Agnes Scott.

Sli K THAT THROW!

But basketball would be nothing without the able
assistance of Miss Wilburn and Miss Mitchell who al-
ways add a great deal to fun and knowledge. They
are the ones who break in the unskilled beginners and
teach "the old dogs new tricks."

Spectacular as usual this year was Forward Alta
Webster, who helped lead her team to victory. Clara
Rountrec and Frances Radford, as guard and forward
respectively, added to the support of the juniors,
while Gwen Hill came in for her share of help for the
sophomores. Mary Gumming delivered some brilliant
shots to aid those up-and-coming freshmen in some
plenty stiff competition for their opponents.

To be able to swim is a requirement for graduation
at Agnes Scott. But whether the girls just like the
water or want to learn swimming, the fact still re-
mains that it is the most popular all year around
sport. Coaching is desired in various degrees, and
under the supervision of Miss Mitchell and Mrs.
Lapp, one just can't help but learn to stay on top.
The beginning classes struggle with the fundamental
principal of how to keep your head up and still
move, while the intermediates try to perfect their
roughly learned strokes, and the advanced students
enter the very popular diving class or Miss Mitchell's
Life Saving class.

In the fall two inter-class meetings were held and
the freshmen team took the honors in the first meet,
while the sophomores nosed out the trophy in the
second. Such meets give each swimmer a good chance
to win a place for herself on the varsity team.

SCOTT

In February the Swimming Club gave a water
pageant with formation swimming, different kinds
of strokes, relay races for speed, a relay race where
the racer had to wear a shirt, peel it off, and hand
it to the next in line, diving, and where even a
birthday party with real cake was held in the middle
of the pool. Fun was the theme and everyone had

Mrs. L.ipj) illiis/yitrs a pafect stroke.

Swimming Club was organized for those girls who
are part human and part fish. It has always been one
of the most popular athletic clubs and this year it
increased its membership with eleven new members.
Entrance into the club is based on a system of try-
outs, and each girl is rated according to her ability
in speed, endurance, diving and life-saving.

The Swimming Club has always been noted for its
activity in planning events for its own entertain-
ment and that of the whole campus.

Happy BirthJay to Suiiiimin.t; Club.

Tennis is "the thing" in the fall and spring. It is a
certain way of getting warm on those brisk fall days
and a sure cure for that annual spring fever. The
courts are always in demand during these seasons and
often if one is up at six, she sees a few enthusiasts
getting in a "quickie" before breakfast.

The club was organized to stimulate interest for
those more advanced fiends who desire to play with
some really stiff competition. At the meetings the
girls play with each other and with faculty members
who find the game just as entrancing. Such games
really break that professor-student barrier and create
good spirit all around. Besides playing with the fac-
ulty, the girls played this year with North Avenue
Presbyterian School for Girls in Atlanta. At the re-
quest of Tennis Club, Littleton Rogers, Davis Cup
winner, gave an informal demonstration for the en-
thusiastic fans.

The tournaments held in the spring and in the fall
are always popular and well-represented. The singles
tournament was won by Tennis Club President Vir-
ginia Tuggle, who defeated Mary Olive Thomas.

Tennis is also papular with the beginners who feel
that they ought to know at least how to hold a
racket if they are to get along at all, for everyone
plays tennis! Classes are organized so that girls of
equal ability play with one another and thus give
competition for a stimulating game. Each girl takes
her game to heart and tries to improve her technique
so that she may become just a little bit better than
that partner on the other side of the net.

Miss Mitchell is the instructor, and she is assisted
in many of her classes by various members of the
Tennis Club.

I T H G CLUB

On the first nice day, one usually sees the members of the
Outing Club meeting at the gym for one of their famous
breakfast hikes or all-day excursions.

Tryouts are held in the spring and are based on the
knowledge acquired from the course conducted in first aid,
nature study and outdoor cooking given each prospective
member.

This year the club met early in the fall at Harrison Hut
to make the plans for the year. It was agreed that hikes
would be taken every three weeks. On Thanksgiving the
club went to Coffee Hill for a breakfast hike and later that
month some of the members joined the Appalachian Trail
Club on a five-mile hike from Amicalola Falls to Southern
Shore. On another evening, the club had a star study with
Dr. Christian.

RIDIH

The Physical Education department offers horse-
back riding in both the spring and fall seasons.
At almost any time of day then, Mrs. Taylor's
station wagon is ?. fam.iliar sight down by the gym,
for the stables are out from town, and this is the
means of transportation to them.

Each girl must learn to handle various types of
horses under all conditions; in the ring or on cross
country trails. Many of the girls learn to saddle
and bridle their mounts, and some of the girls
like to try a few jumps while riding.

Agnes Scott's outstanding equestrienne this
year was Patty Barbour who took the laurels in
the three-gaited class in the horse show last fall.
Top pair of riders was May Lyons and Hazel Tay-
lor, who won that class in the show. The man-
ager of Riding Club is Mamie Sue Barker.

ARCHERY

In the Spring ?nd Fall Agnes Scott's Robin
Hoods invade the hockey field. Classes in
archery are held, and a bull's eye really
brings forth excited shrieks no matter how
advanced the archer is.

Some of the members of the Archery
Club represent Agnes Scott at the National
Telegraphic Archery Contest each year. Our
members in recent years have been frequent
winners in the southern district.

The archery cup is awarded at Agnes
Scott annually to the individual receiving
the highest score in this contest.

GOLF

"Fore!" is becoming the cry of more and more Hot-
tentots as the years go by. Besides the overcrowded
and very popular instruction class, the Golf Club
has been active in competition among its own mem-
bers. Flag tournaments and the "hidden holes"
tournament, which was won this year by Dot Kahn,
have been enthusiastically enjoyed.

The Club is very active in the spring and fall and
admits its members on a tryout by score system.
The pride and joy of the club this year has been the
putting green which was available all winter. It
has been the scene of many putting tournaments and
much practicing.

The season ended this year with a final tournament
and the presentation of the golf cup to the winner.

During the winter quarter, dancing is offered to those students who wish to de-
velop poise, grace, and muscular control. There are many classes to choose from
so that each girl may pick the one most appealing to her.

Modern dancing is probably the most strenuous of the types. The development
of muscular control and inovement with rythmn is the object of this type of
dance. The patterns formed with these movements make it very strikmg to
watch as well as to dance.

Natural dancing or "flit" is designed to help in the development of beavity of
carriage and grace. The Polka and natural movements such as running, walkmg
or jumping are taught under the able work of Mrs. Lapp.

Social dancing, the most popular dance group on the campus, is especially
organized to keep those ball room dance lovers up on the latest Conga and Rhumba,
as well as to give practice In the older steps like the unforgettable waltz. It Is
very helpful to anyone who might be a little shy to know she can step right into
the most intricate dance step with perfect ease.

The folk dancing class, which studied the early and late American periods this
year, became perfectionists in the Virginia Reel, as they showed in the dance
recital given in late February. The modern, natural, and folk dance groups all
participated in this exhibition and gave an excellent variety of rhythms typifying
each type. These various classes formed much of the background for the many
who took part In May Day.

WEARERS OF THE L S. PUS

To gain the privilege of wearing the Agnes Scott pin is the
height of ambition for every athlete at the College. The
award is given to the girls who are the most outstanding
athletic participants. It is based on points which may be
gained through taking part in sport contests, being a mem-
ber of a class or varsity team, or serving on the Athletic
Board. The pin, which is awarded instead of a letter this
year, is given to those making sixteen hundred points, and
a star is awarded to those who make an additional twelve
hundred. A girl who had already gained a letter, is priv-
ileged to get a pin if she wishes.

Ann Gellerstedt, president of Athletic Association Board,
received her letter last year for participation in hockey,
basketball, swimming and service on the Board.

Gay Currie, vice-president of Athletic Association, won
her letter through participation in hockey, basketball, Out-
ing Club, and positions on the Athletic Board.

Annie Wilds gained her points through activities on
hockey and basketball teams.

Alta Webster won her letter last year through taking
part in basketball, hockey, swimming and tennis.

Dot Webster, who is an old Agnes Scott stand-by, made
her points through her positions on the Athletic Associa-
tion Board and through her activities in hockey, tennis and
basketball.

Betty Ann Brooks is wearing her letter for her participa-
tion in basketball, hockey and swimming.

Mary Dean Lott, senior basketball captain this year,
made her points in hockey and in basketball.

Doris Hasty made her points for her letter last year
through hockey, basketball and swimming.

Martha Dale's activities in hockey, basketball and swim-
ming gained her a pin this year.

Clara Rountree is wearing her pin for the points piled
up from hockey, basketball and swimming activities.

In the materialistic civilization of today. Art has
been considered impractical, abstract and useless.
Yet since the time of the earliest civilization this
branch of the Liberal Arts has expressed the
height of a nation's culture. The study of Art at
Agnes Scott is designed to familiarize the student
with its basic aims and principles. Then no mat-
ter how the form of expression varies, the student
will have a background for true Art apprecia-
tion.

Up in the spacious, well-lit rooms on third
floor Buttrick Hall are the studios where girls
may sketch and paint under the direction of Miss
Louise Lewis. Drawing still-life, sketching from
living models, designing and sculpture may be
studied, or students may take courses in the his-
tory and appreciation of Art. Moreover, open
exhibitions throughout the year do their part to
keep this branch of the Liberal Arts flourishing
on our campus.

Scott Glee Club together with some
of the students of the Ga. Tech
Glee Club. Mr. W. A. Terry from
New York had a leading role as
well as being co-director with Mr.
Johnson.

AY DH PREPARATIOI

Work for May Day began as far back as the Winter Quar-
ter when scripts were handed in to the Committee to be
judged. Chairman of the Committee this year was Margaret
Wagnon and the author of the script was Myree Wells.
With members of the Gym Department dances were planned
and begun; students elected the May Court and the May
Queen; and at last costumes were made and the big day
of May 2 arrived.

WITH SINCERE liR/ITITllUE

The 1942 Silhouette wishes to thank the many friends without whose
cooperation and interest the pubhcation of this annual would have been
impossible. We appreciate the sympathy and encouragement of the
administration, the patience of faculty and students in posing for pic-
tures at any time, and the generosity of the various organizations in
letting us interrupt many of their presentations with a flash of the cam-
era. We are grateful, too, to the student budget and to the student organi-
zations for their financial support.

Besides these friends on the campus, the Silhouette is indebted to
Mr. Ware of Gaspar-Ware studios, to Mr. Young of Foote and Davies
Company and Miss Morgan and Mr. Stubblefield of Photo-Process
Engraving Company for their efficient service and sound advice on all
matters, technical as well as otherwise. The Business and Editorial Staff
of the Silhouette of 1942 express their deepest thanks to these people.
