Presented here are a hundred and fifty girls, their advisers
and their teachers, as they strive to fit themselves for
service to society. Here they are at work and at play.
Here are their activities and their accomplishments. Here
is our interpretation of life on the Hill, permeated with
the friendship, the loyalty, and the selfishness that charac-
terize the L. C. Spirit.

THE QUADRANGLE SALUTES
MISS CARRIE FALL BENSON
COLLEGE LIBRARIAN
They will come back, when I no longer climb
The hill to keep my daily rendezvous;
In that approaching, dreamy, twilight time,
They will come back, the girls I loved and knew.
Their flower-like names will sing themselves to me,
Margaret . . . and Jean . . . and Gwendolyn . . .
They will come back to keep me company,
I will fling wide the door, and let them in.
As once I opened books before their eyes,
And led them into far enchanted places,
Watching the white fire strike, the dreams arise,
Brightening the beauty of their faces.
When I am old, and seek my desk no more,
They will come back in memory to my door.
Carrie Fall Benson
Critic, playwright, poet, friend because we are proud of her, because
we love her, we affectionately dedicate this book to Miss Carrie Fall.
J
N A COLLEGE LIBRARY
Here, for Youth, is stored the wisdom of the ages;
Secrets of science, mysteries of art,
Aivait the questing mind and eager heart
Of those who would explore these priceless pages.
Here the young dreamers, lifting glowing eyes
From open books, may look upon far places;
May feel the wind of fancy in their faces,
And stand a moment underneath strange skies.
Here history sounds the rumble of old wars;
And romance voices that which once was said,
In words that echoed to the singing stars,
Uttered by poets who have long been dead;
But more than all that has been said or sung,
Are they who seek this place they are The Young!
Carrie Fall Benson
OUR PRESIDENT
8
To the members of the Class of 1946, I bring this word
of felicitation. As the atomic bomb ended the war and
brought an end to an era, so may the atomic age usher in
a thousand years of peace. The implication of the mission
of the atom is the greatest incentive mankind has known
for world brotherhood, or total destruction. It must be
one world or none. Swift-winged flight in this age has
brought the world into a neighborhood overriding national
boundaries and barriers yesterday for bombing, shall to-
morrow be for blessing? We must answer today. Quick
communication encircles the globe and makes of the world
a whispering gallery. Would that its message might be
"What wonders God hath wrought." As you enter this
atomic age with all its opportunities and responsibilities,
"May the new occasion teach new duties, that make the
ancient good uncouth. May you be ever up and onward
as you keep abreast of truth." Be assured of my great pride
in you and my great concern for your happiness always.
Sincerely,

June Barbour
Atlanta, Ga.
Julia Traylor
Augusta, Ga.
June has definitely distinguished herself ever since
the day she first entered the portals of LaGrange
College. She was named "Miss LaGrange College."
She was the only member of her class to be elected
a Superlative both her junior and her senior years,
ind the only member to be elected to the "Scroll of
Fame" as a freshman. June has a double major in
English and Speech, and she's one of our favorite
actresses. We're steering her to broader fields she's
Pasadena bound. If she makes as big a hit there as
she's made at L. C, some day we'll all be proud to
say, "I knew her when."
Julia and her vivacious personality have become a
tradition on the Hill. Her genuine friendliness and
fun-loving disposition have made her a favorite
among her classmates. Four years ago Julia was the
girl chosen from the class of '46 to represent "Miss
Freshman." We know her magnetic personality will
carry her far and assure her a host of friends in the
big world after graduation.
Mary Martin Conyers, Ga.
Mary transferred from West Georgia College when
she was a sophomore. These three years she has sung
her way into the hearts of the College. She's made
a place for herself here that nobody else can fill. Her
major is voice. Luck to you, Mary. We'll miss you.
You've won your niche in our Hall of Memory.
Frances Rountree Jonesboro, Ga.
We might easily call Rountree one of the brains of
the senior class. Her majors are Mathematics and
French, and she's been a member of the Honor Club
since she was a sophomore. She was the only member
of her class to be elected to "Who's Who" when she
was a junior. Her classmates have spent four happy
years with her and do not covet her honors. She
justly deserves them.
16
Mary Eddie Carter
Ellaville, Ga.
Sarah Foster
Dallas, Ga.
To do easily that which is difficult for others is the
mark of talent. Mary Eddie doesn't sing in the choir
or play concertinas on recitals, but her talents are
not limited. She has great ability to make friends,
and she feels at home with a softball or a test tube
in her hand, because her major is chemistry and she's
very good at sports. As a Curtain Raiser, she deftly
works the lights in all the plays.
Suppose your big sister preceded you at your Alma
Mater, and did it with honors what would you do?
A difficult problem for some, but not for Sarah.
She just followed in her sister's path and added some
things on her own. She decided on mathematics as
her major. Her quiet manners and sunny disposition
have endeared her to L. C.
Betty Lewis Kennesaw, Ga.
Her specialty has been athletics right from the start.
Betty and tennis they belong together. She wields
a powerful racquet. As president of the Athletic
Association Betty has certainly helped to promote an
interest in athletics and to develop a spirit of good
sportsmanship among L. C. girls. Her ready smile
has won her many friends on the Hill. We know
she'll have them wherever she goes.
Mayre Lou Wise Manchester, Ga.
"If silence is golden," I heard her say, "I'll land in
the house for the poor some day." Speaking generally,
Mayre Lou's generally speaking. She can usually be
found right in the midst of whatever's going on
among the seniors. Her sense of humor, generosity,
and friendly manner have made her a popular figure
on the Hill. She has a double major, English and
General Science. Your friends on the Hill will miss
you, Mayre Lou. Just be yourself, that's the way we
[ike you.
17
Ann Rainey Waycross, Ga.
Someone must have told Ann that "the way to a
man's heart is through his stomach." Anyway, she's
got her man now and we're sure she can keep him
because she really knows the art of homemaking. As
you may have surmised, Ann's major is Home Eco-
nomics. We think Ann is tops capable, sincere, and
always ready to lend a helping hand.
Jean Loftin Newnan, Ga.
We know that important things may be in small
packages; so may important people be small in
stature. There is certainty an example on the Hill.
Jean, president of the Student Government this
year, is very important to all of us. Quiet and
modest and very efficient, Jean showed us long ago
that she can always be relied upon to come through.
In addition to her dependability, her generous friend-
ship has endeared her to L. C.
Mary Laura Starr Albany, Ga. Beth Gunter Greenville, S. C.
Remember the rhyme, "Twinkle, twinkle, little Beth is one who is faithful to he rstudies, her work,
star. How I wonder what you are?" None of us and her friends. One of her greastest loves is French,
have to wonder what Twink is, though. We know which is what she chose for her major. We know her
she's one of the brightest Starrs. Because of her perseverance will carry her far, and her willingness
lovely voice, she has had an active career in music co wor k will find her a big spot in whatever she
during her college days. In addition to voice, she chooses,
has a major in Religious Education. Keep a' shining,
Twink!
18
Thelma Baumgardnf.r
Rural Retreat, Va.
Hazel Cannon
Trion, Ga.
Thelma has been with us on the Hill for two years.
She spent her first two years at Hiwassee College in
Tennessee, where she was a member of the Phi Theta
Kappa national fraternity. Her major is Religious
Education. Sometimes she's very quiet, but her ac-
tions speak louder than her words, and she accom-
plishes many things.
Hazel's friendly smile and cheerful disposition have
won for her a place in each of our hearts. We might
add also that her intelligence and hard work have
won for her a permanent place on the Dean's List
and in the Fine Arts Honor Club. Her majors are
piano and English. We're proud of you, Hazel, and
we wish for you all sorts of success and happiness.
Edna Brannan LaGrange, Ga.
Edna has been one of the bright spots in the Town
Girls Club these four years. She has actively sup-
ported all its projects as well as those of the other
organizations to which she belongs. We have come
to recognize her as a conscientious worker and to
appreciate her sensitive nature and fun-loving per-
sonality.
Etheldia Penton LaGrange, Ga.
Etheldia is another Town Girl of whom we're very
proud. She has established her place through her
work in the Home Economics Club and the Art Club.
There is no question about her efficiency and her
friendly willingness to cooperate.

GOVERNMENT
The Student Government Association has as its pur-
pose the maintenance of high standards of living and
scholarship on the college campus.
The Student Government, through the council,
attempts to guide the life of the college community.
In the fall, it is the dutv of the Student Govern-
ment to help the new students become adjusted to
their surroundings. The orientation of the Freshmen
culminates in the Junior-Freshman wedding. Mem-
bership in the Association is then granted to the
Freshmen.
Founded on honor, truth, cooperation, and service,
the Student Government Association aims at, not
only pleasant college relations, but also training for
future usefulness. Through this Association, the stu-
dents gain a clearer conception of how to live honor-
ably and unselfishly and of how to share in the
responsibility of government.

The Young Women's Christian Association is a voluntary religious movement that encourages Christian Youth in
spiritual and social growth. It is the purpose of this organization to increase awareness among our student group
and to place special emphasis upon creative living in which students find their best and truest service.
Weekday Morning Watch and Vesper services are presented by the students. It is so planned that by the end
of the year, every student has participated in one cf these services. Twice every month Vesper Recitals are given
in Dobbs Auditorium on Sunday. Artists from LaGrange and surrounding communities give these recitals.
The new students on the Hiil are pledged into the Association at a candlelight service in the fall. This year
the service was given out of doors at twilight with only a lighted cross and the candles held by the cabinet as lights.
HRISTI AN ASSOCIATION
We have attempted to create more interest by working with the other religious organizations: The Methodist
Student Movement, The Baptist Student Union, and The Westminister Fellowship of Presbyterian Students. The
Freshman Commission, a division of the "Y," is made up of Lucy Huckaby, the Freshman Representative to the
cabinet, Jenny Lyle, and Kathleen Pope.
Each year at Thanksgiving and Christmas time the entire Student Body aids the cabinet in social service activi-
ties. For Thanksgiving, we adopted the Negro Nursery of LaGrange and contributed food for that week-end. At
Christmas, the traditional Christmas Tree Party was given in the dining hall for the Servant Force of the college.
Religious Emphasis Week was observed in October under the leadership of Bishop Edwin H. Hughes of the
Washington Area. Also, a very successful campaign for the World Student Service Fund was carried on in No-
vember with Richard Baker as inspirational speaker.
There has been a wonderful response from the students as a whole in helping to carry on the work for the
YWCA. All the services have been well attended and a greater realization of our theme and benediction has
resulted.

"The Curtain Raisers," sponsored by and conducted through the Speech and Drama Department, is an organi-
zation devoted to the promotion of a true interest in drama and the theatre and the development of individual
dramatic talent. The club, with Irene E. Arnett as its director, is composed of all speech students and other stu-
dents who have qualified for membership by try-outs. All special students of the Speech Department are associate
members.

RAISERS
The year's season opened with the presen-
tation of three one-acts: "The Legend
of Camille," (which gave the girls a
ample f "old-style acting"), "They're
None of Them Perfect," a light comedy
about young married women, and "The
Forgotten Man," a poignant religious
drama. After the program a reception
was held in the studio.
The first three-act play was "Brief
Music," a sentimental comedy of life in
a women's college. This play had a
unique appeal because it was "just so
typical."
Ripened members of the Drama De-
partment are the players in all major
productions. The newer members gain
experience through acting in laboratory
one-act plays. Male roles in all produc-
tions are taken by local boys and men.
The cast of the commencement play
consists solely of Alpha Psi Amega mem-
bers.
At Christmas time the Curtain Raisers
together with the Chapel Choir presented
"Why the Chimes Rang," a histronic
adaptation of the beloved music.
The Junior Curtain Raisers also con-
tribute their share of entertainment. They
present at least one "youth" play a year
and supply able talent for children's roles
in other shows.
Training in radio dramatics and tech-
nique is taken care of through our weekly
thirty minute radio program over Station
WLAG. The radio group, with Frances
Jennings as its student director this year,
makes several out-of-town broadcasts
each year.

THE INTERNATIONAL RELATIONS CLUB
The International Relations Club has as its purpose to study and discuss history as it is daily being made in
national and international events, events that vitally affect us both in the present and in the future. The desire
of the club is to develop among the students intelligent thought on modern affairs. The club is composed of girls
who have indicated their interest in this phase of study by having a major or a minor in history, or by the careful
study they have given the subject.
The club is under the auspices of the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace from which it receives
annually eight to sixteen books of current interest in the fields of politics, economics, and history. In addition,
the club is a member of the Georgia International Club.
THE HORATI AN CLUB
Carter
"The scientific attitude is that you hold all knowledge at the mercy of new discoveries." We valued this quality
of Horace so highly that we named our club for him. The Horatians are those students interested in science, and
if you'll give us a chance, we'd like to interest you too. You could begin by coming to our annual open house.
For our meetings we often take field trips. However, in winter we retire to the parlor of Pitts with Miss Smith,
who always has an amusing incident to tell us about her summer hospital work.

THE 1946
Frances Rountree

When we set out to publish the Quadrangle of 1946, we thought of ourselves as pioneers and indeed we were
pioneers. Only one of us had ever been on the staff before. But we were eager to see what lay behind an annual,
and we determined to get an early start. Soon we became entangled in a new vernacular. We learned a different
meaning for "dummy" and became acquainted with "cuts" and "copy" and "layouts."
Sue dreamed up clever shots only to discover that some earlier Quadrangle had had her idea first. With a
scrap of paper clutched in her hand, Jane Ellen pursued the seniors, pleading, "Please tell me what you are!" and
then wore out her dictionary looking for new ways to say "was a member of." Winifred and Elese trod the
streets in deluges of rain to seek out new ad prospects. Twink added for hours to be sure we weren't going in the
red. Jackie checked and re-checked her lists of names and addresses. Davis studied the effect of casually piled
books vs. neatly stacked books before she made her sketches. Rountree lost her layouts, her dummy, and her
religion any number of times and kept the neighbors awake till all hours as she typed her precious copy.
But all the difficulties we encountered serve only to make us more proud now of the job we've completed as
we present to you the 1946 Quadrangle. We've loved building it for you. It's your book. We hope you like it.

THE
D II IS II MILLS
LAGRANGE, GEORGIA
MANY YEARS AGO LaGRANGE was named by one of her first citizens "The City
of Elms and Roses;" since that time she has also become the CITY OF COTTON
MILLS; and her residents may justly feel a pride in either name.
THE DUNSON MILLS lie on the eastern edge of the city, between the Atlanta and
West Point Railroad and the Atlanta Highway, Route 14. Its buildings and the grounds
are among the most attractive in the South today. The main mill building and offices are
surrounded by a wide expanse of velvety lawns, green the year round, and appropriately
planted with flowering and evergreen shrubs. The mill building is of red brick with white
trim, and has a base planting of shrubbery. The tenement village has some three hundred
houses of three and four-room types, at all times kept freshly painted white, with green
trim. Every home is provided with electric lights and running water and has ample room
surrounding it for flowers and vegetable gardens, chickens and a cow if desired. The
City of LaGrange last year erected in our village a most modern and commodious Gram-
mar School Building for the children in our section. The school is equipped with a
splendid kitchen and cafeteria, and has a beautiful auditorium. The Company operates
at its own expense a well-equipped kindergarten for the small children. The Company
also furnishes a two-story brick building for use as a meeting place for clubs, lodges, and
community gatherings.
A full-time graduate nurse is regularlv employed by the Company for the welfare of its
employees and their families, and group life insurance at a very low rate is provided for
all who wish it.
The Company a few years ago built two modern brief* churches, one of Old English and
one of Colonial design, and besides furnishing light, heat and janitor service for the con-
gregations using them, also contribute substantially to the support of their resident
pastors.
The Din/son Mills extend greetings and good
wishes not only to the LaGrange College seniors
of 1946 but to all the girls on the hill.
