When you turn through the pages of the 1947 Quadrangle, it is our
hope that you will find preserved for you something of the glory of your
college days at L. C. Perhaps it will bring memories of the gladness of
making friends and the sadness of parting from them, or memories of the
things which you have loved and for which you have worked. If this
volume brings back memories and instills higher ideals, its success will
be assured.

It is with pleasure that I bring you a word of greeting and felicitation
as you approach the end of your college days on the "hill." I am sure for
all of us they have been days devoted to the "advancement of learning."
As new occasions bring new duties, may the open mind and the scientific
approach to life continue to bring you joy and happiness, "peace and
plenty." Be assured that my fondest hopes and affectionate esteem attend
you always.
Sincerely yours,

'LEST WE FORGET
Just another freshman class came to L.C. four
years ago that is "just another" to outsiders. To
the members of this class, it was something special.
Of course, our class went through the usual mem-
orable things, such as initiation, freshman-junior
wedding, and the Y installation. We got swell junior
sisters and did all that is L.C.'s tradition. However,
there were the personal things: taking Gail out for
a game of tennis with luminous tennis balls; Cox
and Jimmie's frequent decorating of Mrs. Johnson's
room with plastering from her ceiling because their
room above hers happened to be the "hang-out" of
the freshman class; Betty Cook's putting cold cream
on all the door knobs during the night. Then there
was the time Reyn and Mary Alice, who had a pipe
code system with the people overhead, had Mrs. John-
son as a visitor when a vital message came clanging
over the pipes. Don't ask me how they explained
that. Marion Middlebrooks got hold of an old cow
horn in those days. When she blew it, it could be
heard at Rhodes-Perdue's. Mrs. Johnson warned her
about it in no uncertain terms. One day, there came
a sound that could be only one thing Middle's horn.
She blew it in the hall, down the stairs, and out the
windows. Yes, there came Mrs. "J"; but Middle
greeted her with "I wondered if you were ever com-
ing." After this statement, she handed Mrs. Johnson
a bar of candy. Such things went on all year, cli-
maxed by half of our class getting "quadrangled" at
the end of school for going to a late Saturday movie.
During the quadranglement, a quadrangle song was
written. That ended our freshman year.
In the fall of '44, we felt important. There was
a class below us, and we prepared a careful initiation
for them. No one living in Hawkes then can forget
events such as the time when Jane Carter, coming
in a little late, chose to enter through a window.
It would have been a good entrance if the window
pane hadn't fallen out and crashed through the dea
silence. Lavene, Gail, Ann Duncan, Mary Hearc
Linda Griffith, and her roommate supplied the ha
with the fragrance of onion sandwiches. Bubbe
Dunson's "wolf wagon" was an attraction that yeai
But the main memory is the fact that we were give
credit for giving the best party of the year. It wj
called "Breeze Inn," and Mr. Bailey came as Charlc
Boyer. We also gave the chapel program in whic
we imitated our big sisters. After that, we sang t
them from Hawkes and realized we were losin
people that meant two wonderful years of friend
ship.
Juniors! Upperclassmen! Prestige! Water tha
would stay on. . . . Mattresses that felt like mat
tresses . . . and yes, Heat! Many of our class ha
left, and Reyn and Mary Alice were still in the othe
buildings with the two classes below us. Sue De
came to us. She was calm, we thought, until sh
burned up her curtains on the hot plate. The bi
event of the year was our homecoming. Old class
mates came back and helped us give our secon
"Breeze Inn" party. We finished our third year b
taking over the senior store.
Dignity! It may not fit some of us, but that
what being seniors is supposed to give us. Onio
feasts of our sophomore year have been replaced b
sardine feasts. Names of the feasters will not b
given. We got information about Cuba and dis
cussed things with Mrs. Quillian, pro and con. O
course, time will tell, but if conditions permit, tb
seniors of '47 will have been to Cuba by the tim
this is read. What with Cuba, this year's operett:
recitals, comprehensives, and graduation, smoothe
into harmony with our sincere loyalty to each othei
we bring to a happy and sad close four years c
unforgettable experiences.

Every student is a member of the Student Government
Association, which is based on the Honor System. With the
aid of the Student Council, the Association seeks to uphold
those high standards of living and scholarship that character-
ize the highest and best in Christian living on our campus.
One of the first duties of the Association in the fall is to
aid in the adjustment of new students. At the end of the
orientation period are the Junior-Freshman wedding and the
formal ceremony of signing pledge cards which grant full
membership to the new girls.
The Student Government seeks to be a friend in the truest
sense of the word to make honor, truth, cooperation, and
service the ideals of future usefulness as well as pleasant col-
lege experiences.

The Young Women's Christian Association is a religious organization in which all students on the
Hill hold membership. We unite in the desire to realize full and creative life and determine to have a
part in making this life possible for all people.
Early this year our Little Chapel, which has been an inspiration to all and a light along the path
of spiritual development, was dedicated by Dr. D. P. Melson and Rev. C. S. Forester in a special service.
After the dedication, each new student was received into the Y.W.C.A. when she lit her candle as a
symbol of her loyalty to the Y.
The nightly vesper services are presented by the students who plan them around a certain theme
each week. We have Morning Watch each Sunday morning after breakfast and Sunday afternoon Ves-
per Recitals once a month presented by local artists.

In order to create more interest by working with all the religious organizations on the campus, we
have on the Y cabinet a representative from the Methodist Student Movement, Baptist Student Union,
and the Westminster Fellowship of Presbyterian Students. The Freshman Commission is a division of
the Y. Kathryn Walker, who is the Freshman Representative to the cabinet, is the chairman of the
group. The other members are Pauline Lane and Betty Bulloch.
A very successful campaign for the World Student Service Fund was conducted in November.
Miss Judith Austin, regional secretary for the WSSF, was the inspirational speaker for this campaign.
At Christmas the traditional Christmas Tree Party was given in the dining hall for the Servant
Force of the college. There was a Christmas tree and a program which included Santa Claus, who
distributed gifts.
Delegates were sent to the summer Y.W.C.A. conference, which was held this year at Highland
Lake in Hendersonville, North Carolina.
Of particular significance to all who attend, are the nightly meditations in the Little Chapel.
One may come to hear the soft music, sit quietly in meditation, or kneel in prayer. Here cares of the
day are lifted from burdened shoulders, and ideas of how one can live and help his friends live a richer,
fuller life are born.
The Y seeks to encourage Christian youth, with its ideals and purposes, and to send them forth,
not questioning the truth, but questing for the truth.

The first production of the year was a
laboratory play, "First Dance." Student di-
rected, its cast was composed of less experi-
enced members of the department. Follow-
ing the play, a reception was held in the
Speech Studio.
"Peg O' My Heart," starring Gertrude
McFarland, was the first "main-stage" pro-
duction. The cast included several local
boys.
At Christmas time, the Curtain Raisers
presented "The Fool." The part of the
young minister who tried to pattern his
life after Christ's, was taken by Euclid
Sharman. This was the first leading role
for this talented member of the Company,
though he has worked with the Curtain
Raisers for several years. Several other pro-
ductions were presented, including "Our
Hearts Were Young and Gay."
The College Radio Theatre, under the
direction of Colleen Ouzts, made several

Finding ourselves confronted with the job of editing the '47 Quadrangle, we became a wee bit baffled
and puzzled. We just knew we were the "greenest of the green."
We mapped out wonderful plans for this book, only to have many of them go up in smoke. For
when talking to Johnny, Poteat, and Snelson, we were informed that because of a rise in prices, the
publishing of the annual would require a mere five hundred dollars more than in former years.
Sue, despite her disappointment that the colored pages about which she had dreamed all summer
just couldn't be, worked early and late in an attempt to make this the book it deserves to be. Imogene
spent hours writing out-of-town firms asking if they wouldn't like to advertise in "the great book"
only to hear in reply, "We're sorry, but we have no funds for such advertising." Alberta worked hard
getting up her list of names and addresses. Eileen and Jane, I'm sure, wore their shoes thin, in an
attempt to solicit ads from our beloved advertisers, the LaGrange merchants. Jackie and Snelson became

QUADRANGLE
a popular twosome on our campus, especially around lunchtime. Colleen racked her brain in an attempt
to say cute things about the seniors. As for Marion and her art just take a glance at the drawings scat-
tered here and there, and I'm sure you'll agree that the Quadrangle wouldn't have been the book it
is without her contributions.
So here it is, the staff's knowledge of life at L.C., Snelson's knowledge of photography, and the
engraver's dummy all combined to produce the 1947 Quadrangle.

with our Fellow College, which is again this year Woman's College, in Tokyo, we hope
to extend our feeling of unity to Methodist students in ether lands. At Student Confer-

7ke Athletic Aucciation
To foster a spirit of good sportsmanship, wholesome play, and the development of a sane mind in a
sound body, is the purpose of the Athletic Association.
Membership in the Georgia Athletic Federation of College Women assures the organization of latest
trends of interest in athletics and the major problems confronting the athletic departments of the col-
leges of Georgia.
The association sponsors many activities in striving to help the girls have fun while keeping fit.

The girls who make the "L" Club should receive the highest tribute. The membership of this club is
composed of those girls who have received college letters. Letters are awarded on the basis of the point
system, and points may be acquired by participating in field dav and by keeping health month, which is
no easy job. After a letter has been won, a star may be earned.

Our uf2erlaWeA

on the Hill who best represent the true spirit of LaGrange College and
its ideals. Because of their outstanding participation in campus activities,
we bestow this high honor upon them.
Miss LaGrange College is chosen from the Senior Class. We feel
that she is the one who most truly possesses the spirit of L.C., which
includes love, loyalty, service, and sacrifice.
The five Superlatives are chosen from the sophomore, junior, and
senior classes at large.
We select as Miss Freshman the girl who we think has the charac-
teristics of an ideal freshman.
We are honored to present to you our Superlatives. We hope that
you share this pride with vis.

THE
DUNSON 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, lodgles, and
community gatherings.
A full-time graduate nurse is regularly 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 brick 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 Dun son Mills extend greetings and good
ivishes not only to the LaGrange College seniors
of 1947 but to all the girls on the hill.
