t^^^-
T>:'.':
As a member of the Agnes Scott Commu-
nity you, the student stand on the threshold
of the future, hiere, in your preparation for
the larger scope which awaits you, you have
found something more than a few buildings
or an assembly of people. You have found
something both transitory and lasting the
Agnes Scott World.
In this world you have been not only stu-
dent but individual, \-\ere you have chosen
your friends; directed your interests; discov-
ered your capabilities; and developed aware-
ness, tolerance, and understanding.
hJere you have approached maturity
through the sum total of the experiences
which have made up your college life, it is
you, the student, the living link with past and
future, that we have tried to picture, you,
and the year 1954 as you lived it.

To the tune of "Diamonds Are A Girl's Best Friend"
By the side of the tracks
Of the Decatur Railway,
You'll find us at the school we love.
Just look in the classes for Agnes Scott lassies,
Or even look in library nooks
Among the books.
The showers run cold, we girls grow old.
As we wait for an outside line.
But Sophomore or Senior,
Lame-brain or genius.
We're in love with Agnes Scott.
In scarves and galoshes
We cheer that Georgia sunshine.
As that ol' rain pours down each day.
We keep on the beam with home-perms and cold cream.
We read poetry, play hockey,
Eat broccoli.
We're well-rounded, so boys still call,
And we'll all get a man in the end;
But frat queen or Phi Bete
Our aim is to graduate;
We're in love with Agnes Scott.
I So thars how you made Phi Beta Jan! 2. Hey GHer, lefs be domestic! 3. Sinny and Catharine, bored stiff and waitin' fo

SENIOR
SNAPS
In the fall quarter of the
student's senior year comes
Investiture, the dignified cap-
ping ceremony which signifies
entrance into senior-hood.
The day before is by tradi-
tion "Little Girl's Day," when
the seniors have one last
childish fling before they as-
sume the dignity called for
by their position as adult
leaders. They advance from
teddy bears and water pistols
to the formal robes which
symbolize their newfound
maturity.

September nineteen fifty-one our college days had just
begun.
We unpacked luggage by the ton
And started life at Scott.
There were chaperons and Ethan's fall, our own Black Cat
in Inman Hall.
We waited for the sponsors' call
And the campuses we got.
Then suddenly Freshman days were past, "We are the
Sophomores" came our blast.
We got the slump, but it didn't last
Our spirits iust rose higher.
Then goodby to underclassman days, with our rings came
Junior ways.
Two years behind us hear us praise
Our great third year at Scott.
Junior Jaunt was ours ... no one forgets the fashion show,
the space cadets.
"Dreamers' Holiday" banished all regrets
And our class held the spot.

To the tune of "That's Entertainment"
We come, education our aim,
To Agnes Scott, with its national fame.
And we'll say, graduation day,
hlurrah, we made it.
A school, we don't know any school
That can boast of such numerous rules.
Even so, we can still catch a beau.
That's why we love it.
We work and we slave in the library all week;
But then after that entertainment we seek:
It's the one place on earth that is really unique.
Mr. Jones causes trouble and sends us on the double.
We sing of the friends that we've made;
Moonlight nights on our famed colonnade;
We can put any school in the shade.
Agnes Scott is the best, the best in the
field of education.
I. Stop trying to be so domestic, you two! 2. My don't we look fresh and bright this morning? 3. Ain't we got fun? What
we've ALWAYS wanted to do! 4. Don't burn yourself, Patterson how'd you get In here, anyway? 5. Open wide, madonna!
6. Go home, B. J., you ain't wanted! 7. Say you're having a little dance?

Freshmen are we in the Hottentot fold,
But we have quite a tale, so let it be told.
In our days at dear Aggie, we've come to know
The joys of our friendships, of fresh falling snow.
Of hockey, and tennis, and badminton, too.
Of vespers, and hall prayers when the long day Is through.
We've supped on the lawn, sipped pink lemonade.
And even made use of the famed colonnade.
Junior Jaunt and Black Cat have found us in trim;
We've shown all the others how freshmen can swim.
Dennis the Menace, our pal good and true.
Is always on hand when there's something to do.
United we stand, through our gold and our white.
In all our endeavors, both worthy and right.
Yes, freshmen are we in the Hottentot fold.
And this is our story. Now let it be told!
I. Well. VA you could put on some pajamas! 2. Willy and Mac could have come out of a 1925 annual. 3. Alumnae Garden

ART STUDENT LEAGUE
Although the Art Student League has not
been functioning as an organized group this
year, the Silhouette staff felt that some
mention should be made of the active part
that these students have taken this past year
in the college community. The productions
of Black Cat, Junior Jaunt, The Firebird, and
May Day were made possible through the
active part that these students took in the
construction of backdrops, scenery and
props. These same girls have spent many
Sunday afternoons serving as hostesses for
the art exhibits. It is the sincere hope of the
campus that this group will really become
organized next year and that they will con-
tinue their service to the community.

The Agnes Scott Athletic Association functions
through a sports program designed each year by
the Athletic Board, in the interest of certain needs
of the members of the community, both individually
and collectively. By promotion of team sports, A. A.
inspires Class Spirit the community spirit of shar-
ing both defeats and victories; by providing a
wide variety of individual sports, it develops self-

The accuracy of the archer, the endurance of the
swimmer, the fighting spirit of the halfback all
these are important contributions to the character
of our citizens. Relax, recreate, reduce; support
your ego and your team.

The dancing class of A. S. citizens seeks both to
satisfy individual interests and to entertain the
campus lay in their annual ballet. Their presenta-
tion this year, "The Firebird," was especially appeal-
ing on account of the original interpretation of the
Slavic ballet, costumes, and scenery. The group even
shared its talent with the citizens of a larger scope

SPECIAL EVENTS
Through Lecture Association and the University
Center programs Agnes Scott is brought into con-
tact with prominent members of the larger world
such as Mark Schorer, Professor of English and
novelist, who spoke on "The Novelist In The Mod-
ern World"; Alfred Northrup, Professor of Phi-
losophy; and Lady Rama Rau, Indian delegate to
the United Nations and our own Robert Frost
whose general topic this year was "One Way of
Looking at Poetry." Lecture Association also brought
Players Incorporated to the campus in Moliere's
"The Miser," a sparkling, gay production of much
vitality and freshness which the whole campus
greatly enjoyed.
Other speakers during the year were Mr. Roy
LeCraw, prominent Atlanta lawyer whose subject
was "What We Can Do About International Ten-
sions;" Dr. hienry Radford Hope, noted art historian
who gave a fascinating lecture on "Modern Art
During The Last Twenty-five Years" with slide illus-
trations; and Professor Schaeffer of the University
of Strasbourg, an authority on archaeology and
discoverer and excavator of the ruins of Ras Sham-
rah, the ancient city of Ugarit. These inspiring
personalities and productions have contributed a
valuable part of our liberal education.
