Profile of a College

The Profile the picture, the record, the sketch
translates the personality of the college. This
is Agnes Scott in her 75th year. Most of all we
are the college; the physical resources, the bricks,
the books become effective tools of education
through the spontaneous, thoughtful, exuberant,
complaining, probing actions of people. This year
is a living signal. Taking the cue from her heritage,
Agnes Scott anticipates the future, which is the
hope and essence of college. She discards the
static and welcomes change as the deliberate,
thoughtful weighing of perspectives in the dy-
namic process.

The features of the Profile convey the multiple
details that separately fuse into the whole. This
then is really our college: people going to classes
and studying, living through the changing sea-
sons of a year, searching with freedom of expres-
sion and interest in others, dating, doing all the
ordinary and usual and unusual things that con-
tribute to the period from September to June
but this is a unique year, it is a year in college.

The day begins early and ends late bells ring
we go to class bells ring again and we go to
lunch-all spent in PREPARATION for the days
and years ahead.

CONTRASTS permeate every aspect of Agnes
Scott dorm and class, study and play, week

ways there is rain. Rain in fall, rain in winter,
and even more rain in spring, but rain can
never squelch the determination of the sun
worshipers.

From week to weekend the college girl uses
all available resources, whether Phi Beta or fem-
inine skills, to CAPTURE that magic but often
elusive goal, the college boy.

The sober and diligent become grace and beauty
and leave the mundane routine behind to step
into the SOCIAL world for a night or for a week-
end.

EVENTS never to forgetChristmas parties, April
Fools' gags, the birthday bulletin board, elections,
the bare, cold hall with empty suitcases, and long
drooping stems with falling petals from someone
who always remembers.

Lois of times Agnes Scott is just FUN: elaborate
pranks, sings, parties, clowning, sports, and even
frantically trying to exercise off those five pounds
before Friday night. College is many experiences
somehow fused into a "whole."

Features

College is not all books and classes. It is
participation, participation in the active pro-
cesses of college life guiding the innocent
freshman through her first bewildering days
on campus, endless practicing for Black Cat,
joining hockey teams, writing class songs,
smearing on grease paint, memorizing lines,
perfecting dance movements, putting up
Young Democrat signs, and, in this the 75th
year buying "shares."

There is participation too in the concerts,
lectures, plays, and other intellectual offerings
in the stimulation of a freshman fireside or
an "Honest to God" cabin discussion, in the
excitement of a Huston Smith lecture on drug
mysticism and a Margaret Mead sketch of the
future, in the beauty of the Budapest String
Quartet's playing of Bartok.

It is the individual finally who measures the
importance of campus activities.

With Junior Sponsor's, Sophomore Helpers', Judicial, CA,
AA, Social Council, and Presby-Pal letters clutched in
nervous hands, the freshmen "arrived at Main and began
the terrifying task of deciding which toothy, eager face
on the front steps belonged to her Junior Sponsor. Finally
united with their groups after several timid inquiries,
the newly name-tagged girls were led from line to
tests, to the Hub, to dorm and room and back to the
lines, deverly just missing their roommates every place
they went. By supper the confusion was a rather pleas-
ant nightmare, and the freshmen stumbled after their
group out to the dining hall steps for Dr. Alston's vesper
service. They listened to proud, spirited voices sing un-
familiar songs, a hush settled over the campus, and their
college career began for the class of 1967 and the
Orientation Committee heartily congratulated themselves.
The Committee, led by Barbara Entrekin, planned and
prepared for that first day, first week, and first year
of the incoming new students many months in advance.

Freshman Orientation

On October 11, sixteen slit-eyed, long-tailed, loud-mouthed
Scott Cats reared back on their haunches and sang to a
packed gym:

There's no freshman like our freshmen

There's no freshman I know . . .

. . . let's have a hockey game,

and after that,

a picnic supper,

and after that,

why not give the Freshman class

their own Black Cat!
And with a flick of a tail, the curtain drew back to reveal
Agnes Scott past, .complete with sweet young things who
were "so ashamed," eager, beaver college gents who got
their hand sat on, and prim and proper chaperons equipped
with lorgnette and handbooks. The giggles had hardly died
down, when gasps of disbelief filled the gym. Look at Agnes
Scott Future-in the Hub! Kidney-shaped swimming pool;
professors scraping and bowing before beautiful Scotties;
humble Tech boys swooning at girls' promises to call some-
time; lunch served in the Hub. Oh, it was magnificent, stu-
pendous, unbelievable. But then, the spotlight closed in on
a long figure, in the middle of the stage. Yes, it all is unreal,
the cats said. The present is what matters. The Present is
you, the freshman class-"ln Main, Maclean, McCain, the pulse
of SIXTY-FOUR!"

It was less hectic than Sophornore Parents weekend
the mothers were old friends and the fathers
dragged out their latest jokes. It was the girls who
were different now. Behind a mask of serene sophis-
tication, seniors in their black robes that they had
studied, eaten in, and probably slept in for the past
week, nervously shuffled and reshuffled until each
was in her assigned place. The organ sounded the
beginning strains of the processional. The audience
rose; the faculty marched in; the sophomores formed
the column, and one by one each Senior slowly and
with dignity marched in her first academic procession
to her reserved seat. They sat down in a body, and
each proud parent picked their daughters out of the
shiny many-colored heads before them. Dean Kline
filled all present with an increased sense of each in-
dividual's responsibility to herself and to all mankind.
Then came the awesome ritual as Miss Scandrett
placed weighty mortar boards on each shiny head.
Then it was over and they recessed triumphantly.

Campaign tops

Circle three and lake your time. Give the campaign one more dir

Agnes Scott students went all out for the campus
campaign, January 9-21, and raised $85,000 to bring
to a grand total of $12,500,000 our 11-year cam-
paign for capital assets.

The campaign was kicked off by a luncheon on
Thursday, January 9. Friday night, the junior class
sponsored a College Bowl between Agnes Scott,
Georgia Tech, Oglethorpe, and Emory. Saturday
night saw a Barn Dance and Hootenanny, the joint
project of the freshmen and sophomores. Wednesday,
sophomore slaves-for-a-day were sold. The volleyball
game between the senior All Stars and the Georgia
Tech football team took place Friday, January 17.
The faculty skit, "Now We Are 75," highlighted the
week's activities. Sunday morning, the freshman
class served Scotties a leisurely breakfast-in-bed to
climax the week.

At victory convocation on Wednesday, wild ap-
plause greeted the announcement of the total amount
raised by projects and student $64 share-gifts. In-
dividual class successes were especially recognized.
Praise was given to the steering committee headed
by co-chairmen Dr. Posey and Sarah Hodges; class
chairmen Kitty Strickland, Marge Joyce, Jenny Davis,
and Benkie Benedict; and to the entire student body,
faculty, and staff for a job well done.

Sophomore Parent's Weekend

Dr. and Mrs. Alston meet everybody gri

Parents sip tea at the Alston's

Everybody started out bright, beaming, and eager; but by
late Saturday morning, parents were lagging behind on their
way to still another class after getting up in the middle of
the night to be at breakfast by eight o'clock. Sophomores
nodded knowingly, with that "l-told-you-school-was-not-easy"
look in their eyes. But tiring and busy, busy, busy as it was,
they all agreed that Sophomore Parent's Weekend was the
best ever. Friday morning everyone registered, and donned
name tags that brought back memories of equally frantic
Orientation days to Sophomores. Then parents and daughters
rushed over to Buttrick to check the 8:30 mail before class.
Fathers dozed during French and everybody was tremendous-
ly impressed when their daughter answered a question.

The bell rang, they all checked the mail again, and there
wasn't an empty seat in Friday chapel. Sophomores proved
that the arts can work together in their folk program featur-
ing, the Glee Club, Dance Group, and a dramatic reading by
members of Blackfriars. In hill billy outfits, freckles, and pig
tails. Sophomores told the age-old story of woman her joys
and her trials.

Friday afternoon Winship was at its well-scrubbed best for
the parent-faculty tea. Parents met professors as anxious
students stood by, hoping neither one would say the wrong
thing. Nobody did and everyone ate a lot, especially the
Sophomores.

tremendous success

On Friday night, the athletic arts were featured in the
Dolphin Club's annual presentation. Scott mermaids
wowed the crowd with their grace and skill, and the
audience came away determined to learn res//y how to
swim next summer.

Fattiers lool< uno

Saturday brought more classes and more trips to the
mailroom. But Saturday lunch was something special
with speeches and clapping and upperclassmen wait-
resses. Parents caught their breath in the Hub, the dorm,
or their motel rooms before going to meet Dr. and Mrs.
Alston. The Alston's tea was one of the high points of
the weekend parents discovered that Dr. Alston really
does know everybody by name. The tea party was the
final example of Southern grace and hospitality. Sopho-
more groups and parents descended en masse on Atlanta
restaurants Saturday night for an evening of good food,
good conversation and good jokes.

And then it was over. Parents left, wishing they could go
to school all over again, and Sophomores waved goodby,
immensely proud of their parents, themselves, and their
school.

Blackfriars, Glee Club, and Dance Group collaborate

Outstanding on the Agnes Scott campus for their skill and
creativity are the Dance Group, the Glee Club, and Black-
friars. These talented girls perform throughout the year for
church, civic, and school groups.

Led by President Katie Shearer and advisor Miss Kay Osborne,
Dance Group joined vi/ith Blackfriars to present "The Dark-
ness and the Light"~Medieval Mystery plays. Their folk pro-
gram was a tremendous addition to Sophomore Parents'
Weekend. Dance Group's major effort, a three-suites pro-
gram, was performed with great feclat May 8th. The girls
often choreograph their own work.

The Glee Club, presided over by Martha Kissinger, performed
at Investiture, Baccalaureate, the Christmas Program, and
every week in convocation. During Sophomore Parents' Week-
end, they joined in a delightful original program with Black-
friars and Dance Group. In May, they took part in a reciprocal
program with the University of the South. They traveled to
Sewanee and there sang the very difficult twelve-tone can-
tata, "Rejoice in the Lamb." The Spring Program, for which
the Club prepares all year, was held May 22.

Blackfriars, Agnes Scott's hard-working dramatic group, is
led by Betty Earle Speer. "The Darkness and the Light" was
the first instance in which Blackfriars used music and dancing
as an integral part of their performance. Dramatic Readings
added excellence to the Sophomore Parents' Weekend Pro-
gram. On April 17 and 18, Blackfriars presented a modern
comedy, "Blithe Spirit." This delightful play was an appro-
priate finale to a successful and rewarding year.

Fantasia: Winter's Finale

"Fantasia" sparked Agnes Scott's winter quarter as
a preview of what everyone hoped spring would
bring. The weekend was nothing but fantastic with
girls' escorts coming from far and near.

On Saturday afternoon, March 7, from 3-5, the
Hub was the scene of a jam session. Two combos,
"the Cottonwood Trio" and the "Town Criers,"
played as Scotties and their dates clapped and
shouted.

The highlight of the weekend was the dance Satur-
day night at the Atlanta Americana Motel. Agnes
Scott beauties with "haute coiffures" and chic high
fashion frocks danced the night away to the music
of Maurice Williams and the Zodiacs. The Zodiacs
were loud and frantic and fun to watch. The climax
of their program was their unbelievably lifelike
imitation of the shaggy four from Liverpool. All
in all, Fantasia was a delightful weekend and a
welcome interlude before the grind of winter
quarter finals.

The heads were high and proud, the faces serious, the steps
a little unsteady. They had done all the last things: last
sing in the Hub, last tribute from their sister class, last
stumbling over cobblestone walks, last swelling God of the
Marching Centuries, last day together as a class. It could
have been sad and sentimental, and they probably were
soon nostalgic about the whole thing. But there were no
signs of wishing for it all over again in the joy and exhilara-
tion of the shining faces, only satisfaction with the past four
years and eager anticipation of the many to come. They
gained a wealth of knowledge, perception of life, persever-
ance of duty during their college career, and they were
ready to try it out on the world.

1964 Beauty

The Silhouette presents with pride the Agnes Scott
beauties of 1964. Chosen on the basis of physical
beauty and personal charm, these girls represent
the student body's ideal of grace and femininity.
Since there can be no strict ideal of beauty, the girls
here are as different as the 698 who chose them.
Their likes extend from The Fsntastiks, to Pogo and
Peanuts, to Viktor FrankI, Anna Moffo, Hemingway,
Camus, live theatre, the beach, and Tom Jones. They
worry about school in general, their grades and
Ulysses in particular. Favorite ASC traditions are Dr.
Alston, Reading Day, Black Cat, and, of course, grad-
uation. Insincerity and complainers are the unani-
mous pet peeve. Truly representative of ideal beauty
and sentiment, one girl summed up the general love
and respect all of us feel for our school: "I think
the most unique thing about Scott is that it is a real
community of learning, where the' sharp distinctions
between student and faculty tend to disappear, and
we all become interested in the same thing. It is no
contest but a joint undertaking."

Agnes Scott College

1889-1964

Mr. Alec Gaines, grandson of first president. Dr. Wallace M. Alston, president, and Dr. James R. McCain, presi-
dent-emeritus, cut the cake that symbolizes our 75 years as a college.

58

This year, 1964, marks Agnes Scott's seventy-fifth
birthday. In the fall of 1889, Col. George W. Scott,
Dr. Frank H. Gaines, and a small group of local citi-
zens raised $5,000, rented a house, secured three
teachers, and with about sixty students opened the
Decatur Female Seminary, a grammar school. In this
small way the institution now known as Agnes Scott
College had its beginning.

In 1890, Col. Scott decided to give the little school
a gift large enough to purchase land and build a
permanent building. The result was five acres of
property and the building that is now popularly
known as Main. In gratitude to Col. Scott, the trustees
of the school changed its name to Agnes Scott in
memory of the mother of this first benefactor.

The institution from its beginning has been dedicated
to the glory of God and to academic excellence.
Agnes Scott, a Christian colfege devoted to a liberal
arts program, has had a remarkable history. In 1906
Agnes Scott Institute became Agnes Scott College
and in 1 907 was accredited by the Southern Associa-
tion of Colleges and Secondary Schools. In 1920 the
college was placed on the approved list of the Asso-
ciation of American Universities and in 1926 was
granted a charter by the United Chapters of Phi
Beta Kappa. The institution is also a charter member
of the American Association of University Women
and of the Southern University Conference. Indeed,
Agnes Scott has been accorded every academic rec-
ognition for which women's colleges are eligible.

Agnes Scott is an independent college and does not
receive any support from tax funds. Although the
college was founded by Presbyterians and has an
affiliate relationship with the Presbyterian Church
in the United States, it has never been owned or
controlled by, nor does it receive any budgeted funds

from any branch of the church. Control is vested in
a self-perpetuating board of thirty-two trustees.

The physical and financial progress of Agnes Scott
has kept pace with its academic growth. The campus
now comprises seventy-five acres, and the audit of
June 30, 1963, showed the assets of the college as
$16,729,182.12. Of this amount $9,978,398.10 is
in endowment.

The students at Agnes Scott are a carefully selected
group who come from a variety of backgrounds and
places. Prior to admission, they have had to demon-
strate in a number of ways their competence to do
work of high quality. Confronting these students is
an exceedingly able faculty, capable of challenging
and stimulating inquiring young minds. These men
and women are part of a succession of great teachers
who have helped make Agnes Scott what it is. They
have been and are a committed group committed
not only to the maintenance of high standards now
but to lifting these standards of excellence even high-
er in the years ahead.

Agnes Scott enters the last quarter of its first
century with high hopes. The successful conclusion
of the Seventy-Fifth Anniversary Development Pro-
gram in which more than $ 1 2,500,000 was added in
capital assets between 1953 and 1964 has greatly
improved the college's position to render an effective
service. The academic emphasis has never been at
a higher level than it is now, and the financial struc-
ture is sound and promising. The foundation for
greatness has been firmly and carefully laid and is
being constantly strengthened and enlarged. Agnes
Scott's purpose is to do its work with increasing effec-
tiveness so that the college will continue in the com-
pany of the nation's great educational institutions.

59

Agnes Scott's 1963-64 series of lectures was inaugurated
September 27 when Huston Smith, professor of philos-
ophy at Massachusetts Institute of Technology, spoke at
the Honor's Day Convocation. His address, "The Nature
of Man: Some Recent Evidence from Science," centered
on several startling psychological experiments on learn-
ing.

October was a full month for lecturers at Scott. The E.
Martin Brownes, who have played a large role in the
rebirth of religious drama in England, presently with
the new cathedral of Coventry, England, were on campus
October 14 and 15. They demonstrated dramatic forms
ranging from the medieval years to T. S. Eliot. On Octo-
ber 21, Dr. Helmut Thielicke, Professor of Systematic
Theology at the University of Hamburg, Germany, spoke
in chapel on "Drowning Peter."' Having served on facul-
ties at the Universities of Heidelburg and Tubingen, Dr.
Thielicke has lectured all over the world. The last lecturer
in October was Ferenc Nagy, former Prime Minister of
Hungary in 1946 and 1947. At both convocation and
the International Relations Club meeting, he discussed
the mistakes of the West and the failure of the Hungarian
Revolution of 1956.

Dr. Paul Scherer, often called the "greatest preacher in
America," spoke at Senior Investiture Sunday, Nov. 3.
Guest Professor of Homiletics at Princeton Theological
Seminary, Dr. Scherer's sermon topic was "Creative In-
security."

world-known figures

Dr. Viktor FrankI, eminent Viennese psychiatrist and
originator of logotherapy was the first of Agnes Scott's
Seventy-Fifth Anniversary Celebration speakers. Coming
on February 26 and 27, he lectured on "Man's Search
for Meaning" in a formal lecture, and he also spoke to
several classes.

Music was well represented in the lecture series in the
performance of the Budapest String Quartet on March 6.
The two violinists, the violist and the cellist blended well
in presenting pieces by Mozart, Beethoven, and the mod-
ern composer, Bartok.

Prominent sociologist and anthropologist Margaret Mead
returned for her third visit to Agnes Scott on April 1.
Her addresses on trust and the need for humanity to
adapt to future change produced campus-wide discus-
sion. She was a visiting professor at Emory spring quar-
ter.

Charles P. Taft of the famous Ohio Republican family,
son of President William Taft, able mayor of Cincinnati
and eminent tax and trial lawyer, centered his address

of April 16 on the pros and cons of the very controver-
sial European Common Market.

During Alumnae Weekend, April 24, Mrs. Walter Dowl-
ing. Class of 1930, spoke on "Women of Conscience in
a Changing World." She brought a wide range of experi-
ence from her travels with her diplomat husband who
has held posts in Oslo, Lisbon, Rome, Vienna, Seoul,
Bonn, and now in Paris.

Pulitzer Prize winning author of poetry, novels, plays,
short stories, and non-fiction, Mark Van Doren, presented
many of his own works in an address the evening of
May 5. Talking with him during his visit of several days
was challenging for everyone.

British scientist and novelist Sir Charles Percy Snow,
author of the Strangers and Brothers series of eleven
novels, and his wife, Pamela Hansford Snow, an author
in her own right, spent the week of May 16-20 on our
campus. His main lecture was entitled "An Evening with

Religious Emphasis Week, February 10-14, brought Dr.
Albert C. Outler, Professor of Theology at the Perkins
School of Theology of Southern Methodist University in
Dallas, to Agnes Scott. His theme revolved around "Chris-
tian Morale and Christian Morality." He emphasized In
his lectures the abuse of freedom, the need for right-
eousness and repentance, and finally the true nature of
freedom as found in the Gospel.

Dr. Outler opened the Week with a presentation of slides
taken at the Second Vatican Council in Rome where he
was an officially delegated Protestant observer. He
accompanied his 'pictures with a witty but penetrating
commentary, then answered questions from the audience.

Every night in Rebekah Recreation Room, Dr. Outler met
with students for an informal question and answer
period. At these sessions he impressed students as a
widely read, well educated man, at home in many fields.
He was more than able to grapple with the students'
questions and problems.

At the end of the week. Dr. Outler and Dr. Alston led a
communion service in Maclean Auditorium.

ilaine Orr, C.A. cabinet member in charge of Religious Week,
neets Dr. Outler before going in to lunch.

Organizations

Organizations weld the campus into a com-
munity. Agnes Scott students assume the re-
sponsibility for the structure of campus life; and
the molding influence of student government and
the four boards, through all their organization and
reorganization, gives each student an opportunity
for self expression. From the Psychology Club to
the newly formed fine arts complex, the educa-
tional process moves out from the classroom.
This section of the Silhouette can only picture the
shining faces of those who have served; the toil
and sweat and joy of those precious extracurric-
ular hours belong to those who have borne them
in silence or otherwise. Agnes Scott and the struc-
ture of organizations remain but are modified by
the contributions of each year.

Leadership guides campus

In its second year since reorganization Student Government
adopted as its theme "Identity," which implies a conscious-
ness of self as an entity with a definite purpose. Representa-
tive Council and Judicial Council sought to make their purpose
clear to themselves and to the student body, "To learn
to live honorably and unselfishly in a community and to
share in the responsibility of the government is a part of the
broader education for which we come to college." To increase
active participation of students and to broaden our interests
many projects were undertaken. Among these was the estab-
lishment of a Student Curriculum Committee giving students
a functional part in planning the college curriculum; House
Presidents' Council initiated a signing in and out system for
the dorms; political clubs were encouraged to form on
campus; an Arts Council was formed to coordinate programs
for students interested in the arts. All these were in an effort
to make Student Government more relevant to the student
body.

theme: "Identity"

Sometimes it's hectic, lots of times relaxed, but being e
house president is fun, regardless. There are those days
after a fire drill or after closing a smoker when you're the
local troll-under-the-bridge. Then there are those other days
when you can see seven dorms shining and spruced up all
at once, or seven hostess desks working efficiently and con-
veniently. This year we tried to place more emphasis on
dormitory cooperation by developing the usefulness of the
newly-formed House Council and our House Presidents' Coun-
cil. We've sponsored a new Dek-Your-Dorm contest, and
helped with silver surveys, dorm parties, the Christmas
parties, fire movies, and open houses. Each student has
worked toward the year's biggest project. Signing Out In the
Dorms. The House Councils have been the working backbone
of this procedure and this is a step toward realizing their
place and increasing value in our Student Government organi-
zation.

Judicial concerned with individual

Throughout the year Judicial sought to evaluate what our
function was in relationship to the student body at large, to
the individual student and to the college as a continuing in-
stitution of learning. Our responsibility to the student body
was to interpret the honor tradition which encompasses our
life here both socially and academically. This year we had
several programs to evaluate what we had on campus, to
give students an opportunity to propose improvement and
to enable students to understand the honor tradition. Our
responsibility to individuals extended beyond that so-called
"forboding" room on first Buttrick to being aware of people
having problems outside of the realm of rule infractions. We
worked in coordination with the other boards, to be aware
of the needs and interests on campus.

Christian Association believing in Identity Through Commit-
ment is concerned for all students of whatever religion or
none, that they may perceive in thought and experience the
truth about themselves and that which transcends them. CA
encouraged each individual to affirm what she really is and
lives by, and to search for a deeper and more profound
meaning. We, the cabinet and council members, strive to
provide a program to meet the needs of students and to
challenge them to face the pertinent issues of today. We
began the year with the freshman book discussions and panel,
the initiation of the tutorial program and the formation of a
Human Relations Committee, and book discussions on Viktor
FrankI and Robinson's Honest to God. During Religious Em-
phasis Week Dr. Albert C. Outler stirred the campus to re-
evaluation. It was our goal that through the CA program this
year individuals were challenged to confront, question,
struggle and hence grow to find their identity.

Well, sports fans. Athletic Association planned a full year of
activities. Hockey season was all we had advertised it to be.
There were four teams, and they playffd each Friday. Scotland
helped a wee bit by sending us Jean Calder a member of
their women's hockey team. Horseback riding appeared on the
horizon and as many girls as there were horses rode off into
the sunset with the Vogts. Agnes Scott archers shot up the
campus every Thursday. A swimming meet was held and
again four teams showed up this time; the latest and youngest
arrivals to our campus swam away with top money. Our
tennis players paired off to play each other, and Alice David-
son came out as bestest of the best. Basketball bounced onto
the scene with the same four teams I have mentioned earlier.
The seniors vowed to carry out their threat of winning the
championship four years in a row. Golf revealed long-range
plans to send Kitty Coggin to play in the Virginia Collegiate
Tournament in April. Badminton enthusiasts were in for a
good one year that is. Volleyball got a giant sendoff in
January when some giant economy-sized Georgia Tech foot-
ball players accepted a challenge from some itty bitty Agnes
Scott girls. Our Sweatshirt manager ordered sweatshirts till
she was white, gray, and blue in the face. Keys and discs
were awarded to everyone who understood the point system
well enough to record their participation in various sports
so there. Yes, we did have a good year chin up and I'll see
you around the gym.

The Social Council "season" opened with a Fall Fashion Show
presented especially for the freshmen. Here a quick view
was given of the appropriate attire for each of those im-
portant occasions in the life of a Scottie. A campus-wide
mixer featuring "The Lancers" brought numerous Tech and
Emory fraternities to Scott early in the fall for a boost to the
"post-rush" let-down. For extra enjoyment during the year
movies were shown in Campbell in addition to Hub parties
and sings. No one can deny the success of the first movie
shown in Winter Quarter "Cat on a Hot Tin Roof." More
than two hundred eager girls came to swoon over Paul
Newman! When there was time on Saturday afternoon, girls
were seen playing at the Social Council bridge parties in the
Hub. To herald the spring season another fashion show was
presented with the assistance of J. P. Allen's. The height of
the year's social season was climaxed by the annual Spring
Dance, Fantasia. The dance brought the year's activities to a
fitting and a frolicking close.

In Stopping to think a moment, I find it almost redundant to
mention the purpose of Lecture Committee, for its accomplish-
ments seem to reveal its philosophy so clearly a firm com-
mittment to the belief that one of the most vital aspects of
an intellectually creative atmosphere emerges from the face
to face dialogue betv^een student and scholar. This year,
in celebration of the college's Seventy-fifth Anniversary, we
splurged a tad more than usual and gaily set about bringing
to the campus what we think has proved one of the most
exciting series of distinguished speakers in quite a while.
Dr. Huston Smith, professor of Philosophy at AA.I.T., led off
the year by giving us a first hand report on the LSD-halusina-
gen controversy; following close behind, the delightfully Eng-
lish Mr. and Mrs. E. Martin Browne intrigued us with their
Insight into the naive profundity of medieval mystery plays.
Spending the anniversary of the Hungarian revolution with
us. Dr. Ferenc Nagy, ex-Prime Minister of Hungary discussed
the problem of Communist expansion in relation to the free
world and the reform aspirations of underprivileged nations.
And having read Man's Search for Meaning we were most
eager to hear Dr. Viktor FrankI illuminate his theory of
existential pschotherapy. The marquee seems endless The
Budapest String Quartet, Helmut Thielicke, Margaret Mead,
C. P. Snow, Mark Van Doren, Charles P. Taft, LeRoy Collins

Aurora reveals creative spirit

The handbook says that Aurora is "an arts magazine for stu-
dent expression." We have tried this year to make it just
that. We set ourselves the task of producing an arts magazine
that would not be an "arty" publication, created by and for
that esoteric and ultra-sensitive group. The Aurora Staff. In
short, we wanted Aurora to be a popular magazine. That's
"popular" in the best sense of the word, though. It didn't
mean lowering our critical standards. It did mean cornering
Freshmen and Sophomores and some undiscovered Juniors
and Seniors in classes, or lab, or the dorm, or the mailroom
and saying, "Why don't you submit that poem (or watercolor,
or story) to Aurora?" it meant trying to give constructive criti-
cismsomething a little more helpful than "that's good" or
"that's no good." It neant being a part of the Art Council's
encouragement of creative expression and appreciation. It
meant remembering that at least one purpose of art is com-
municationnot just between artists, but also between the
artist and creativity in everyone. In this year of the Science
and Human Values discussions we wanted Aurora to be a
magazine the science majors would read and perhaps enjoy.

Silhouette records year's image

Silhouette from the first page to last is the chronicler of 1964
for Agnes Scott. Here students make time from the hectic
college pace to engage in creative journalism. In October
three editors attended the Associated Collegiate Press meetings
in New York City. The ideas and methods learned there com-
bined with the technical assistance from Taylor Publishing
Co. and from our photographer AAr. Bucher present a new
conception of the role of yearbook. From the base of all the
year's antics to a recognition of the importance of the faculty,
from the structure of clubs and organizations to bright faces
in the classes section, Silhouette begins to record for you a
part of the totality of Agnes Scott. This book is the product
of battles with layouts, attempts at creative photography,
the endless job of identifying those pictures, all the bookkeep-
ing, and countless other crises that comprise the mechanics
of publication. With our treasure safely off the presses.
Silhouette becomes a whole (and not those frantic unrelated
parts!), and the Pub had seen another year of deadlines
ended.

The News this year has probably been one of the most cussed
and discussed campus newspapers during recent years. In an
effort to provide a sounding board for student opinion of
all types. News reporters and columnists have been harrassed
and hounded by threats of libel suits, phone calls late at night
and irate letters to the editor. Editorial policies designed to
stimulate controversy have evoked labels including "timorous
iournalism" and "sophisticated muck-raking." Preceding and
following Convocation, the mailroom has been the scene of
pre-creation chaos as issues of the News go into students'
hands, on the floor, on top of desks, but surprisingly few in
the wastebasket. Saturday deadlines extend into Sunday head-
aches. Monday night brings "Where the #&c@// is that

Mortar Board

Mortar Board is a national senior honorary
organization of over a hundred chapters which
recognizes outstanding campus leadership. The
Agnes Scott chapter was founded in 1931, re-
placing the honorary club known as HOASC.
New members are selected by the outgoing
chapter from students in the junior class who
have excelled in leadership and service to their
college and comply with the academic stand-
ards of the national organization. Its stated
purpose is to promote college loyalty, coopera-
tion between senior honoraries for women,
and development of a finer type of college
women.

Phi Beta Kappa

Phi Beta Kappa is the national honorary fraternity recognizing
those students who with outstanding ability and self-discipline
have excelled in scholarship. A certain percentage of students
set by the national honorary is taken from the senior class. This
is the highest academic distinction a student at Agnes Scott
can achieve. Founded at William and Mary in 1776 as a secret
social fraternity, it is now the oldest national Greek letter fra-
ternity. Agnes Scott's chapter. Beta of Georgia, was organized
March 23, 1926.

The Arts Council is the newest addition to our many
organizations. The Arts council is a coordinating body,
the Durpose of which shall be to increase awareness
of and participation in the arts. The Arts Council is
a working organization that goes far beyond opening
campus eyes to appreciation of the arts. Composed
of representative members, usually the president,
from Blackfriars, BOZ, Folio, Dance Group, Aurora,
Glee Club, Organ Guild, SAI, Lecture Committee, the
Agnes Scott News, three art majors and four others,
the Arts Council stimulated interest, created working
situations, and made students aware of the vast op-
portunities in the various art fields. The Council was
responsible for the "Enderlin" chapel program, the
Sophomore Parents' Weekend program, the short-
story program, and many others. The Council spon-
sored the art auction during the campaign in January.
They put an arts calendar in the News each month
and occasionally approached students to commission
various art works. Mrs. Pepe, Miss Richardson, Miss
Osborne, Mr. Singdahlsen, and Mr. Hensel serve as
advisors.

Folio

The lack of creative spirit on campus has been a sub-
ject of much controversy this year. Many people talk
about it, but the members of BOZ are making a con-
certed effort to fill the creative void. The purpose
of BOZ is to aid and abet aspiring litterateurs. BOZ
is the only organization on the Agnes Scott campus
where students can expose their creative efforts -to
frank criticism. They are made to examine and defend
their methods and are given the opportunity to eval-
uate different forms and styles in other member's
work. The twice-a-quarter meetings at Miss Preston's
house are "learning sessions," rather than readings,
to entertain and edify an audience.

Folio is organized for these first and second quarter
freshmen. This group is founded on the same prin-
ciples as BOZ. Folio members examine each other's
creative attempts, seeking to arrive at a greater under-
standing of their individual creative processes. The
members of Folio from the previous year judge entries
submitted by the freshmen. New members are taken
in throughout the year. Coupled with the freshman
English course. Folio spurs students on to greater
creativity in their work. Thus, BOZ and Folio, repre-
sent the sole opportunity for creative individuals to
fully exercise their literary ability.

Blackfriars

Blackfriars, Agnes Scott's drama group, is distin-
guished as the oldest club on campus. Founded in
1915, students have the opportunity under Miss Win-
ter and Mr. Singdahlsen to learn all about the dramatic
arts. Through their "Green Room" Sessions, members
have improved their techniques of make-up, costum-
ing, on-stage moving and walking, lighting, sound
effects as well as acting and other related aspects of
drama. During Fall Quarter Blackfriars with Dance
Group presented the Medieval Mystery plays "The
Darkness and the Light," in conjunction with the visit
to the campus of Mr. and Mrs. E. Martin Browne,
guest lecturers in religious drama. Sophomore Par-
ents' Weekend, members participated in the special
arts' council chapel. Blackfriars planned another pro-
duction for Spring Quarter.

Organ Guild

The consensus of opinion was that 1964 was the
best year yet for the Glee Club. Under the expert
direction of Mr. Hensel, the Glee Club presented an
excellent Christmas Program. Sing along with Sewan-
nee was the theme of Spring Quarter when Agnes
Scott and the University of the South featured ex-
change choral programs on consecutive Sundays.
Throughout the year the Glee Club sang in Convoca-
tion, on special chapel programs and in Atlanta
churches.

The Organ Guild, under the guidance of Mr. Martin,
provided a way for students to study the various
aspects of the organ as they developed greater skill
on the instrument. The members often performed
at the meetings in demonstrations or recitals. Also
the'different design and types of organs were studied
in an annual Spring tour of Atlanta church organs.
The Organ Guild is a member of the American Guild
of Organists.

fascinating programs this year, ranging from meetings
in their professor's homes on several occasions to
seeing films. On "Alumnae Night" they heard from
former psychology majors who had pursued this field
in their vocation. They also observed classes at the

Academics

Instigators of the dialogue of learning lectur-
ing, imparting knowledge gained through long
hours of research in indispensible study sessions,
in directed reading groups and both in and out
of class, the professors respond to the student,
willing and anxious to be not a supervisor but a
participant in the learning process.

Possessors of the indefinable ability "to teach,"
they are able to both free the student to grasp the
range of possibilities yet at the same time to guide
his choice in the possibilites of interpretation
whether Soviet Russia, Tom Jones, Ulysses, White-
head, or Freud.

Pooh's people are contributors to the totality of
college life by pledging time, money, and energy
to the campus campaign, in the faculty volleyball
games, in the faculty sponsored vespers. The ad-
ministration keeps the college running smoothly,
admitting new students, transferring old ones-
listening to all problems from course failures to
roommate traumas.

Agnes Scott faculty and administration give the
signals for learning.

The Dean of the Faculty is a vital link
between many different areas of campus
life. Academic advice is given to the jun-
iors and seniors by Dean C. Benton Kline;
to the sophomores by Miss Julia T. Gary;
and to the freshmen by Miss Laura Steele.
Studies involving standards of testing and
grading and general curriculum are initi-
ated and directed here in this office. It Is
in his role as a mediator that Dean Kline
has worked to fit the physical aspects of
the new Fine Arts building to the needs of
the academic departments that it will
house. His position also necessitates his
membership in such varied groups as the
Course Schedule Committee, the Board of
Managers of the Agnes Scott Bookstore,
and the University Center Faculty Adviso-
ry Committee.

Dean's Staff

Every phase of a student's life at Agrnes Scott
is affected by the work of the office of the
Dean of Students. During her first day at
Scott, a student meets the roommate that the
Dean's Staff carefully selected for her and
finds the dormitory room which it has as-
signed her for the year. Her entire freshman
orientation program is essentially directed by
the Dean's Office. Soon she has occasion to
have her pink or white sign-out slips approved
or to order a taxi through the "D. O." During
her years at Scott, a girl follows the activity
calendar, perhaps works in the student aid
program, or needs to take her exams in the
infirmary-all arranged by the Dean's Office.
She will also be in daily contact with the mem-
bers of the staff, each of whom is a senior
resident in a dorm. This in itself is a twenty-
four hour-a-day job that may mean giving a
coke party or taking a girl to the infirmary at
three A.M. Even beyond these contacts, a
girl feels that the greatest importance of the
Dean's Office lies in the ready personal ad-
vice and help it provides.

attends "college days" at high schools from New England to
Texas in order to talk and to answer questions about Agnes
Scott. Throughout the year they interview prospective stu-
dents and send catalogues, brochures, "view books," and
personal information to hundreds of interested girls. In the
winter, AAiss Steele and a faculty admissions committee make
the final acceptances for admission of students. Then during
a student's enrollment at Agnes Scott, it is this office that

its collection by 3,500 books, periodicals, films, and records during this
past year. The year 1963-64 also saw the completion of the first major
physical improvements that have been necessary since the library's con-
struction in 1936. The annual increase in the book collection is made
possible through the library's regular college budget and three main en-
dowment funds the McCain Library Trust Fund, the Emma May Laney
Fund for Frost Material, and the Catherine Torrance Library Fund for
Classics.

Dining Hall plans ahead

During one hour, the Letitia Pate Evans Dining Hall can serve 650 girls a
dinner that has been planned for a week. For these meals the dietitian, her
three assistants, and their full-tinne staff of twenty-eight employees work in
shifts from 6 a.m. to 8 p.m. Such a meal may take as much as 275 pounds
of roast beef or 1 5 twenty-five pound turkeys.

Nine students and Mrs. Delia C. Ray sell "trade books,

from 9:00 a.m. to 4;30 p.m. each day. Now in its second
year as a self-service store, the bookstore grew this year to
seven "island units." From these units, students buy more
textbooks than any other one item, and choose contemporary
greeting cards as the most popular "non-academic" purchase.

Phythii

Miss Margaret Phythian and Agnes Scott have had an associa-
tion that dates from Miss Phythian's adolescence and the school's
period as an academy. After doing preparatory work at Scott,
she had planned to go to a northern college, but she loved
Scott and decided to remain. Following her days as a student and
active member of Blackfriars, she taught here as an assistant.
After spending a year in France and obtaining her masters de-
gree from the University of Cincinnati, she assumed her position
as a regular member of Scott's French department. Since that
time, she has made additional trips to France and received
the degree of Docteur de I'Universite de Grenoble. Miss Phythian
became head of the French Department in the late forties, and,
under her leadership, it has grown from four to six teachers
and from nine to fifteen subjects.

Recently she has spent her summers teaching in the special French
summer school at Middlebury College, Vermont. Her long ac-
quaintance with Agnes Scott has certainly been beneficial for
the college and for each Scott student, who cannot but be im-
pressed by the remarkable accomplishments of a favorite alumna.
Mrs. Roxie Hagopian came to Agnes Scott in 1950, bring-
ing her talent, training, experience, and initiative to the
music department. Her activities before and after this
date indicate how much the college has profited from
her affiliation. Her innate ability was strengthened at
Julliard and brought her the honor of singing with the
Dussel Dorf Opera Company in Germany. Returning to
the United States, she gained experience by teaching
at Rollins in Winter Park, Florida, and in Texas. Since
coming to Agnes Scott, she has been associate professor
of music and in charge of teaching voice and the Glee
Club. The on-campus appearances of the Harvard,
Princeton, Cornell, Washington and Lee, Ohio State, and
Emory men's choirs are due to the inspiration and initia-
tive of Mrs. Hagopian. During her fourteen years at
Agnes Scott, the accomplishments of her individual
students and choral groups have constantly provided evi-
dence of her remarkable abilities as a teacher and a
musician.

The head of Agnes Scott's German and Spanish Depart-
ments, Miss Muriel Ham is an individual of outstanding
and innumberable talents. Her varied interests and ac-
tivities during her forty-three years here only partially
indicate her vast abilities. Her students say that she is
personally "enthusiastic and warmly human," a teacher
for whom they want to work. Her classes are remembered
as being "consistently exciting" because of her personality
and large range of learning. Her more than twenty trips
to Europe and travels in Mexico and South America en-
rich her teaching. She is also considered the greatest
philologist on campus.

In addition to her actual teaching, she has served as an
officer in many local and regional academic organiza-
tions and has written a number of articles based on re-
search projects. After her retirement she plans to con-
tinue her research and pursue her interests in cooking
and Cairn terriers..

Facts, figures, and the Scientific Method are necessary in our
atomic age, but apprehension and appreciation of the beauty
man has created is essential for a meaningful existence even
in a scientifically oriented era. Through Mr. Warren's expert
instruction and fine example, Mrs. Rape's bubbing enthusiasm,
and Mr. Westervelt's quiet, sincere love of the visual and
plastic arts, students develop high standards of taste and
practice in studio and history art courses. Music students are
easily identifiable by their continual humming of classical
tunes as they commit them to memory and by their daily
vigils in the practice rooms of Presser. Speech and drama
students are the ones who talk to themselves in front of
mirrors or practice dramatic readings and recite play parts in
hidden corners.

raise age-old questions

Without fear of contradiction, the Bible Department can
claim the distinction of being the only department on campus
where students can learn the basic fundamentals of Chinese!
In addition to oriental languages, students in Dr. Chang's
popular World Religions course student the history, beliefs,
and practices of significant contemporary non-Christian re-
ligions. In the basic and upper level courses, Biblical thought,
ideas and literature as well as different areas of the New
Testament are studied.

In Philosophy courses professors and students thrash out
everything from categorial syllogisms to ethical theories to
the nature of reality. Mrs. Walker and Dean Kline can give
students in the basic course no pat answers, and Dr. Alston
and Dr. Chang join in the philosophical thrashing on the
advanced level. In Philosophy courses the individual finds
no ready answers; instead she is shown the way men have
chosen, and is given the freedom to choose her own way.

English students

Sophomores are quick to discover that "Whan that Aprill with
his shoures soote . . ." is no foreign language, even though
it does not resemble the Chaucer they knevi/ in high school.
And T'om Jones is much more than a bawdy English movie.
In basic English courses freshmen and sophomores learn
to read all over again and to look beneath the sometimes ob-
scure surface to find the author's real meaning. In upper level
courses. Dr. Hayes relates the whole of literature and Shake-
speare and Dante. Students glean the wisdom of the clas-
sical age from Miss Leyburn, and Miss Rion shows the de-
velopment of our own American literature. Miss Preston re-
veals the aesthetic beauty in poetry, and Miss Trotter finds
real meaning in the modern poets. Mrs. Pepperdene over-
comes the language barrier and reveals the droll witticisms
and penetrating wisdom of Old English literature while Miss
Hutchens' dry wit makes the English novel relevant and alive
to students.

Science, that door to the secrets of the universe, has puzzled
and lured man since the beginning of time. In labs and in
lectures, the science departments give students special in-
sight into the mysterious components of this planet v^'e live
on. Biology students observe and dissect to gain a first-hand
understanding of the life process. Chemistry students test
basic laws and, in advanced courses, strike out in deeper
exploration of chemical reactions and relationships. Physics
students examine the mechanics of the physical universe.
Students in astronomy become familiar Vi^ith the planetary
system in relation to the universe.

Labs are introduced in Basic Psychology

The Psychology Department seeks to give the student a
clue to solving the enigma of human behavior. In labs,
new this year to the basic course, students perform tests
and run experiments to examine basic psychological the-
ories and to formulate and test hypotheses of their own.
From the first day in 201, Sophomores lose any precon-
ceived ideas that psychology is a pseudo-science or just
good common sense. They read case histories and write
innumerable abstracts that go far beyond the horse sense
level. Upperclassmen go from door to door through
the dorms, testing and comparing "normal" reactions.
And in such courses as child and adolescent psychology,
girls are prepared to teach school and to raise their
children.

Social Sciences depict man in action

History is more than a chronological account of the de-
velopment of men and nations. History is Dr. Posey's
sly witticisms. Miss Harrold's anecdotes about English
kings' extracurricular activities, and Miss Smith's intro-
duction of history to freshmen as a story of men, rather
than just dates and places. Dr. Cornelius' Political Sci-
ence classes make field trips to observe and even par-
ticipate in government in action. Economics classes also
make trips and see real money! In addition to the basic
courses, the Sociology Department offers such courses
as Miss Smith's Introduction to Social Work in which
students visit Atlanta agencies to observe welfare work
in practice.

students can study the French philosophical movement
with Miss Clark, Spanish political and cultural life with
Miss Dunstan, or the history of German civilization. Girls

of the Greek alphabet, but to Greek students
they are just three of twenty-four characters they
must master before going on to Herodotus, Plato,

but they still have a long, hard road ahead before
they are reading Cicero or Horace with ease.

;V\embers of the Biology Department are currently work-
ing on research projects and connected publications. For
example, Miss Josephine Bridgman is investigating the
encystment and excystmenf of the protozoan Tillina
magna, having recently published the results of a related
study, "A Study of the Effects of Repeated Irradiation on
the Cysts of a Ciliate, Tillina Magna." Mrs. Netta Gray's
concentration is in botony, a general study of protocarps,
with special emphasis on the taxonomy of the nageia
section. Interested in a totally different phase of botony,
Mr. Leonard Doerpinghaus is working with herbicides,
and has recently written "Investigations of some Physical
and Chemical Properties of Herbicides." Mr. Fred Par-
rish with Carol Roberts is studying early embryo stages
and the development of the snail. They are comparing
the abnormalities resulting from centrifuging the eggs
and treating them with Lithium Chloride.

The current literary projects of English professor, Miss
Ellen D. Leyburn, are numerous and diverse. This spring
she published an article on Gulliver's Travels in the
Satire Nev^sletter, and her article, "Transposition of
Comedy and Tragedy in Modern Drama" will appear in
the Yale Review this summer. Under a grant from the
American Council of Learned Societies, Miss Leyburn plans
a leave of absence next year in order to study the rela-
tion of comedy to tragedy in the fiction of Henry James.

Mr. Everett Keach of the Education Department has
recently completed a contract for publishing his Casebook
of Elementary Teacher Education. According to present
plans, the publishing date will be January, 1965.

The interests of Mr. Walter B. Posey, Mr. Koenraad W.
Swart, and Mr. William G. Cornelius, history and political
science professors, indicate the wide variety in research
projects that can be found within one department. This
fall the L.S.LJ. Press will publish the series of lectures.

entitled "The Sectarian Spirit in Southern Christianity,"
given by Mr. Posey in April 1963 at the university. Mr.
fiwart's book, The Idea of Decadence in Nineteenth Cen-
tury France, is ready for immediate publication. Having
finished this, he is conducting research on "Individual-
ism in Nineteenth Century Europe." This summer Mr. Cor-
nelius is hoping to complete his research on changes in
Southern politics. His study has traced the voting trends
in forty Southern cities over the past thirty years.

Psychology department professor, Mr. George Rice, is
conducting research in "animal aiding behavior" as part
of a three-year grant from the National Institute of Mental
Health. Simultaneously, he is studying the relationship
between emotion and communication. This study is based
on the hypothesis that two people who are emotionally
close are more likely to be aware of each other's distress
than are two people of greater remoteness.

Mr. Richard Hensel and Mr. Jack Nelson are writing theses
this year for their doctorates. Mr. Hensel's work consists
of both his thesis, "On the Harmonic Fluctuations Theory
of Paul Hindemith," and project, a symphony. Mr. Nel-
son is doing a critical study of the poetry of Walter
Savage Landor.

Scott professors are also studying and publishing in other
languages. Mrs. Erika Shiver has just completed the re-
visions of Auf dem Dorfe and /n Der Stadt, and is in the
process of revising Elementary German. This text, famil-
iar to beginning German students, is soon to be accom-
panied by tapes that Mrs. Shriver is making. Miss Frances
Clark of the French Department is continuing her studies
of Pascal, the subject of her recent dissertation. In the
Spanish Department, Miss Eloise Herbert is doing research
on the characters in the novels of Benito Perez Galdos.

Classes

Contrary to popular opinion of Techmen and
News staff and bewildered freshmen, this is not
just a reference section to look up or cut up.
These pages contain more than faces of individ-
uals; rather, they picture four classes, each class
distinct, each contributing its own personality to
form that indefinable substance the student
body.

It is the classes that promote the spirit and com-
munal living. Beginning with Black Cat competi-
tion through the seasonal hockey, basketball, and
volleyball games, the burial of Harvey, the theft
of the Madeline hats, and the kidnapping of Den-
nis, to the Campus Campaign with its fierce class
rivalry to put on the best show and win the most
prizes, Agnes Scott is a "class conscious" society.

Our last year at Agnes Scott rejoicing, regretting,
and a little bit nervous about this time next year!

The year began with our new look Harvey in the
flesh! With the help of Mary Womack and Martha
Kissinger, he led us to another victory in the Black
Cat song contest and introduced Miss Sarah Tumblin,
our mascot. Our next giant step toward the great
big world was Senior Day with our "Medieval
Morality Play" faculty, our guests at lunch and Mary's
poetic tribute. No one tripped at investiture, but a
few of the more anxious ones missed the stool!

We were seniors for real now and began a year
sprinkled with small projects: dry cleaning and the
volleyball game with the football greats across town.

We made it through the last winter quarter of our
lives, and it was spring! We got our last uneven Scott
tan and ate our last picnic supper on the hockey field.
We played and worked our way to operatic fame
under the direction of Mary Lou Laird. During May
we capped the juniors, elected our permanent class
officers, and marked off the days 'til graduation.
Then, it was here, nobody stumbled again; and we
took a long last look at the dear old Alma Mater
and left amid cries of "See you at Alumnae Day in
your flowered spring hat!"

Rivalry was the keynote for our Junior year! The Ah Woo war
the abduction of the Madeline hats; the sports battle with the
victory; and the battle of wits with the freshmen, our sister cla;
meet for supper the least.

against the SophorrM>res with
seniors, and hockey our only
3, to see who could forget to

The year started off with the usual barrage of meetings, appointments, and classes, but it was
the calm that preceded the storm. Black Cat week, our own Black Cat directed by a girl named
Diane, came; and the ensuing rumble ended in severe antagonism with hatless sophomores
who retaliated with the now famous Hoefer kidnapping incident.

Back to usual with more committees, Peggy Simmons and committee organized the freshman
interest file; Marge Joyce and committee began plans for the Campus Campaign, and the
holiday spirit overtook Hardeman, and we had a real, home-type Christmas party complete
with decorated tree, candles on the mantle, and strung pop corn.

Winter Quarter gushed in with College Bowl and the campus campaign. Our project was a huge
success as feminine Scotties graciously let the Tech men have the intellectual honors by a
narrow margin. Then Dennis took the lead, and we all went to the bonfire and volleyball game.

Spring Quarter and awesome responsibilities! The Seniors stepped down and we became the
school leaders. We had a party in the Hub and a banquet for departing seniors. Then it was
May and the seniors had a capping ceremony for us and, gulp, next year we'll be leaving!

Sophs survive
slump

Our Sophomore year at Scott: A lesson on how to cram the most
work, the most activities, and the most outside readings into the
shortest time possible.

In the fall there are: no more orientation classes, just classes on
how to orient the freshmen . . . Sophomore helpers prepared to
give (and to take advice), "Now, girls about that letter you re-
ceived five days before you came, they mean it," "You don't want
to go to rush parties, you're already pinned?" Sophomores are
overheard at rush parties, "No, I'm not a freshman." . . . "No thank
you, I'm a Scottie." Shades of last year, blind dates, phone calls, the
Scholarship Trophy, and the boy back home (that your best friend
married last summer). Psych labs to fill our spare time are new . . .
hockey games where winning's not as important as the spectators
are . . . Hardeman's Raid and Marilyn's.

Winter quarter arrives and with it comes Sophomore Slump, the
remains of freshman slump. The campus campaign comes too and
with it Sophomore Slaves and Junior's money . . . teachers in
Madeline hats . . . Ah-Woo, whose Indian? . . . We might not have
raised the most money, but we raised an awful lot of sand . . .
Basketball was a great spectator sport with no spectators. Sopho-
more Parents' Weekend with the various reactions: "Yes, Mother,
I always make up my bed," "No, Daddy, that's not the prof who
gave me the D," "My only social engagement of the year, and they
won't count it as one." In bed with a good book, Tom Jones, and
the movie came just in time. More changes came with hostess duty:
"So that's what they look like?" and "So what if he's her date?"

Spring quarter, the best season for getting rings (of the class va-
riety) . . . the party for our sister seniors, "Our Buds" . . . volley-
ball spectators are asked, "Did you come to spectate or sunbathe?"
It's not the grades that count, unless you want to transfer. Finally
comes decision time, "Dean Kline, I realize that I was just here, but
I want to change my major again!"

As spring fades into summer, we realize that we will never forget
that wonderful year that we were Sophomores.

Freshmen have short, wonderful,
unbelievable year

L to F

Dudley Lester,

Our Freshman year at Agnes Scott: Whew! Didn't think
we'd ever get here and now don't think we'll ever net
out!

That first confusing day: "But my Junior Sponsor promised
she'd be on the steps of Main at 8:00-everyone's here
but her!" Name tags, lines and more lines, placement
tests, conferences, meeting for supper, lists for rush
parties. "Does the whole school revolve around groups
of one junior, three sophs, and four freshmen?"

Then handbook classes and compulsory class meetings
and teas and alumna sponsors and Peter Pan. "Say, does
anyone ever have time for school around here?" and
"Just what is Black Cat?" The big day came, and Black
Cat was us! Finally we were really a part of the whirl-
pool of activities until the next shock of mid-quarter
grades hit. Then it was exams and . . .

Winter Quarter already! and more handbook classes and
firesides. The campus campaign came, and Peter Pan
with Madeline put on the biggest, best hoofenanny and
barn dance ever,- we even served breakfast in bed! Our
mixer and doughnut sales through, those research papers
were due,- and it was exam time again.

Wonderful Spring came with tans and tennis and' trips
to the Big City and many decisions: where to live next
year, what to take, and what's it going to be like without
the seniors! It was a big year, a short year, a wonderful
year, and now, unbelievably, we're sophomores.

As birds from the oak tree unfold to the

And honor unyielding to cynical cry,

Like our towers and turrets have stood

And will stand when all have passed by.

In transient patterns of campus reflected.

Our dreams that are rooted in permanency

Editors' Note

1 964 has been a signal year for the Silhouette as well
as for Agnes Scott. We have tried to develop and con-
tinue the ideas of Jo Ann Holt, to make a yearbook not
just a record of the events of the year but a v/ork of
creative journalism. There has been experimentation
with subject matter, materials, and photography. Of
course college editors alv\/ays cry out against the pres-
sures of school and deadlines; these we cannot deny,
and we must admit that it adds to our amour propre
to think what the quality of the book would have been
IF . . . Yet here it is finally, and we are proud to add it
to the memoralia of our 75th anniversary.

A word is in order to explain our policy regarding the
celebration of this great time at our college. We of the
Silhouette agree completely with the statement from
the administration and board of trustees that Agnes
Scott in 1964 is not content to sentimentalize over past

laurels but is reaching out for our next 25 years. There-
fore, this volume presents our college as it is now: the
students, faculty, organizations, and programs. In this
way the reader can come to know the fiber and the
spirit that are molding us into a top ranking woman's
college.

Many people have given time and thought to the pub-
lication of Silhouette '64, Certainly we could not have
had finer cooperation or quality of work from Mr. Buch-
er, our photographer, and Ed Jones of Taylor Publish-
ing Co.; our first year together has run smoother than
we could have asked for. Special credit goes to Ken
Patterson, Bill Sumits, and Sylvia Thorne for their free
lance photography.

Fini!

Carolyn and Martha
