GRADUATING EXERCiSES
I960
The Greensboro Memorial Coliseum was the place chosen for the Woman's College's first off- campus graduating exercises. For the last four years, in an effort to stage the exercises more adequately and comfortably than had been possible in Aycock Auditorium, plans were made for out- of-door services. Unpredictable weather played havoc with these plans. This year's selection of the coliseum pro- vided acres of parking spaces and thousands of seats.
The exercises began at 3:00 on Sunday afternoon (May 29). Dr. William Fletcher Quillian, Jr., president of Randolph-Macon Woman's College, was guest speaker and baccalaureate preacher. President William C. Friday extended congratulations to the 485 graduates on behalf of the University of North Carolina. Chancellor Gordon Blackwell presided and in his remarks on behalf of the College said: "We hope that in your years here you have become an educated woman in the fullest sense, but that you have no illusion that your education has been com- pleted. In truth, it is but begun." Barbara Boerner '60 was the student speaker.
With honor
Twenty-three students were graduated with honor. Sum- ma cum laude: Sara Jane Toenes of Greensboro. Magna cum laude: Ethlyn Boone of Charlotte, Marian Jones of Benson, Sandy Margolis of Williamston, Mary Moore Upchurch of Clinton, and Martha Yates of Greensboro. Cum laude: Priscilla Baker of Westfalls, New York, Pa- tricia Barbee) daughter of lima Newman Barbee '21) of Bethel, Lelia Rose Evans of Youngsville, Faye Fuquay of Greensboro, Margaret Hambright (daughter of Sara Lee Goode Hambright '26) of Blacksburg, South Carolina, Mary Ann Hancock of Charlotte, Martha Ann Helms of Marshville, Shirley Jane Holton of Winston-Salem, Maria Lamprinakos of Asheville, Brenda McLeod of Lexington, Mary Ann McNeely of Greensboro, Peggy Peterson of Clinton, Mary Patricia Rose of Paducah, Kentucky, Jac- queline Money Sechrist of Thomasville, Patricia Stephen- son of Smithfield, Chrystelle Trump of Manchester, Mary- land, and Frankie Wolfe of Landis.
Awards
Awards for graduate study announced in the graduation program: Henry Weil Fellowship, to be shared by Marian Jones, Sara Toenes, Mary Moore Upchurch, and Martha Yates; the Consolidated University Graduate Fellowship, Lelia Rose Evans.

The results of the annual mail-ballot election were made public for the first time. Pat Markas '53 of Durham vi'as elected to succeed Marjorie Hood as first vice-presi- dent, and Alma (BuUard) Thompson '48 of Winston- Salem, Betty Bullard '52 of Asheville, Peggy Crow '55 of Raleigh, and Katherine (Wolff) Brandon '26 of Hick- ory were elected to the Alumnae Board of Trustees.

Alumnae Fund
Dacia Lewis, second vice-president and chairman of the Alumnae Fund Committee, presented the 1959 Fund gift ($1,500) to Chancellor Gordon Blackwell for his discretionary use. In subsequent comments Dr. Blackwell noted that, among other uses to which the Alumnae Fund gifts have been put in recent years, the following show the diversity of the needs which alumnae through their annual giving have helped satisfy: (1) the financing of a business education conference, (2) a scholarship for an outstanding student, (3) the purchase of memorial mark- ers for campus buildings, (4) the financing of an organ recital by a nationally known musician, (5) a lecture by an historian from Great Britain. Alumnae funds have been used further (6) to help send two students to a conference on the National Security Policy, (7) to help with the expenses incident to the production by the School of Music of two operas, and (8) to supplement funds for faculty tra\el for professional purposes.

Program
Chancellor Blackwell, at Judy Barrett's invitation, intro- duced the meeting's program, which in itself meant an introduction of the four new deans of the schools within the College and the Director of Admissions. These five people, in turn, commented about their particular areas of responsibilit}'.
Speakers
Dean Junius A. Davis of the Graduate School: the pro- gram of this school, which endea^'o^s to produce leaders and specialists, has been closely related through the years to the needs of teachers ... 78 graduate degrees on the master's level, he announced, were to be awarded at this year's commencement . . . the first doctoral pro- gram will be initiated in the fall by the School of Home Economics.
Dean Naomi Albanese of the School of Home Economics: the Home Economics Foundation has offered continu- ing aid to the development of the school's program, especially in its emphasis on research . . . within the last year an Institute for Child and Family Development has been established; it is one of three such institutes in the country ... a grant from the Ford Foundation has financed the planning for a parenthood planning work- shop . . . enrollment in the school was up this year 40% over last year.
Dean Kenneth Howe of the School of Education: 67% of the Woman's College students are graduated with teacher certification . . . the school's concept is one of educating for teaching rather than training for teaching . . . with the renovation of the Curry School enrollment will be slightly enlarged and more carefully selected; the curriculum will emphasize a strong liberal arts program for college preparation ... a block plan for student teaching will be inaugurated in the fall of 1961 . . . there is special interest in a trend toward a five-year program in teacher education which will include outdoor and recreation education.
Dean Lee Rigsby of the School of Music: during the year the school presented over 70 formal programs, 80 television shows, and many out-of-town performances . . . next year a new degree, bachelor of music in liturgical music, will be initiated; it is hoped, too, that a master's program in music education may be initiated . . . the school will endeavor in the future to increase its services to the general college, particularly for those in the field of education . . . excellence in teaching and in perform- ance are of utmost importance in the school.
Director of Admissions Alice (Joyner) Orby '54: the Col- lege's admission policy is one of the quality- control mechanisms of the University . . . three things about each applying student are taken into consideration in de- termining the probable academic promise of the appli- cant: (1) high school record (transcript), (2) letters of reference from the high school (usually from the princi- pal and teachers), and (3) scholastic aptitude test scores . . . the College is selective to the point of not admitting a student who has a chance of less than one in ten of being able to do the work here . . . the attention gi\'en by alumnae to acquainting and encouraging outstanding high school students about the College is very valuable.

ONOR graduate of this College, everlasting president of her class, author of The College Song, leader in the civic, cultural, religious, and business life in her commu- nit\- and state, devoted friend of education, and loyal benefactor of the Woman's College: LAURA WEILL CONE, Class of 1910, to you the first Alumnae Service Award is gratefully offered on the occasion of your class' fiftieth reunion.
Laura Weill Cone has demonstrated in full measure her de\otion to the Woman's College and to the ideals the College hopes to achie\e. She recei\ed the honorary- degree of Doctor of Laws from the College in 1942, and she has been made an honoran.' member of Golden Chain. She ser\ed as a \aluable member of the Board of Trustees of the Greater Uni\ersity of North Carolina and its Executi\e Committee for more than twenty years. Her community has bene- fited in many ways from her creati\e leadership as exemplified in her senice on civic and \ol- unteer boards and councils. She gave loyal service as director of her local ci\ilian defense \ol- unteer office and has sened on the go\erning bodies of the Moses H. Cone Memorial Hospital, the Blowing Rock, North Carolina, Hospital, and Bennett College. Her generous gifts have enhanced the opportunities for ser\ice at this college, as exemplified b}' Elliott Hall, which was made possible through her gifts and those of her family.
In all these and many other a\enues of de\oted ser\ice, Laura Weill Cone has exhibited an orderly and distinguished mind, a genius for peace, a de\'otion to truth, and a courageous heart. In the words of Frank Porter Graham: "She stands for excellence without pretence and democr^''\' without surrender."

A Woman's College United Nations Semi- nar, with eight students and two members of the faculty in attendance, was held in New York at the United Nations during spring holidays. The seminar was a coopera- tive project of a course in International Organization, taught by Dr. Lenoir Wright (history), and a course in Ethics, taught by Dr. Warren Ashby (philosophy). The semi- nar's focus in keeping with the UN's current World Refugee Year emphasis, was on refugee problems.
Participants were briefed on the program and problems of the World Refugee Year by a representative from the UN High Com- mission for refugees. They met with a press attache of the Arab delegation to the UN and with a member of the Israeli delegation. They talked with a member of the Austrian delegation; with Dr. Rita Morgan, who had recently returned from refugee work in North Africa; and with Dr. Frank Graham, who is serving as UN mediator in the Pakis- tan-Indian conflict. The general plan of the seminar was to gi\'e the participants an over- all view from both the political and humani- tarian sides of the refugee situation.
PLANS are now in the offing for a new and expanded soda shop in Elliott Hall. The ex- pansion is necessarv' to keep pace with the increased enrollment. Chances are that this change will not take place before the spring of 1961.
The proposed soda shop will be located on the ground floor of Elliott Hall in the space presently occupied by the lobby and former post office. In these quarters the soda shop will accommodate 160 people, which is about three times more than the present shop. Equipped with modern fountain and grill, the new shop will offer all the traditional soda shop menu, plus a plate lunch. The new facilities will offer quicker semce, pleasant decor, and access to the patio for out-door smokers.

ON Commencement Sunday, Chancellor Gordon Blackwell announced the establish- ment of the Burlington Industries Professor- ship in Textiles. An initial $25,000 donation by Mr. and Mrs. Spencer Love of Greens- boro, plus an additional continuing contri- bution of $2,000 yearly from the Burlngton Industries Foundation, makes possible the creation of a distinguished professorship. Mr. Love is founder of Burlington Industries and is currently president and chairman of the board of the textile firm, which has its executive offices in Greensboro.
Dr. Blackwell stated that the donation to the Home Economics Foundation, Inc. is to be used to establish what is to be known as the Burlington Industries Professorship of Textiles. The gift from Mr. and Mrs. Love and the Burlington Industries Foundation may later be enlarged to extend its benefits.
The donors, expressing the desire "to establish one or more professorships in tex- , tiles," stated that it is their belief that "the I educational strength in the Textile Division of the School of Home Economics . . .
depends upon the development and retention of a faculty composed of great scholars and great teachers."
Burlington Industries was a major donor to the Home Economics Foundation when it was incorporated in 1946.

WORK has begun on an $85,000 street project which will provide a new entrance to the campus. This entrance will be on West Market Street opposite Aberdeen Ter- race and will be named Gray Dri\-e. It will go through the campus to \\'alker Avenue and will be wide enough to permit two-way traffic. This also is a street-widening project. The present street runs from Walker and terminates at the infirmary. The project will pro\-ide badly needed parking space and two- wax- traffic through the campus. It will be needed even more with the opening of the new dormitories in the fall.
THE ALUMNAE NEWS

Betty Jane Gardner, a rising junior from Raleigh, has been selected as the first Wom- an's College student to participate in the Junior Year Abroad program. On the basis of her impressive academic record, she has been awarded a $500 scholarship for her study abroad. She will study in Paris as a member of the Sweet Briar group, and the work which she completes while abroad will be credited toward her Woman's College degree.
The group will sail from New York on September 1. Intensive language study will be done in Tours, France, between Septem- ber 12 and October 22. (Betty Jane's four- year background in French is outstanding.) While in Tours and later in Paris, the mem- bers of the group will live with French families.
With her major in fine arts, Betty will take history and art courses through the University of Paris at the Ecole du Louvre and private lessons in painting and design at the Academic Andre Lhote. Her work will be closely supervised by professors-in-charge in Paris, and her progress will be reported to the \\'oman's College.
SIX MEMBERS of the College faculty re- tired at the end of the last session. Three of them were department heads; Dr. Edna Arundel (geography). Dr. Helen Barton (mathematics), and Dr. Ernst Breisacher (German). The other three; Miss Helen In- graham (biology). Miss Bernice Draper (his- tory), and Mr. W. R. Taylor (English), have been members of the faculty for 37, 38, and 39 years respectively.
Dr. Arundel received her bachelor's degree from Columbia University. She was awarded a Ph.D. degree from Yale where she was an assistant and graduate student before she came to the Woman's College in 1937. She is a former president of the Greensboro branch of the American Association of Uni- versity Women.
At Woman's College for 33 years. Dr. Barton pre\'iously taught at Goucher, Salem, ^^'ellesley, Albion, and Alabama colleges. She is a Goucher graduate, and she received the master's and doctorate from Johns Hopkins. She has served as president of the Woman's College Chapter of Phi Beta Kappa.
Dr. Breisacher was born and educated in Germany, getting both the master's and doc- torate at the University of Strasbourg. Be- fore coming to the Woman's College six years ago, he taught at Yale, Kenyon, Cham- plain, and Guilford colleges.
Miss Draper taught at Mar\'in College in Missouri before coming to the Woman's College. She received her degrees from Lawrence College (B.A.) and the University of \\^isconsin (M.A.).
Miss Ingraham received her degrees from Knox College (B.S.) and the University of Chicago (M.A.). She taught in Illinois and was an assistant in biology at Bryn MawT. She also has been president of the College chap- ter of Phi Beta Kappa.

Campus FACTS continued
TWENTY-ONE students have a special bond in a very special lapel pin. They might well think of themselves as belonging to the Order of Chinqua-Penn. The girls served as guides at Chinqua-Penn Plantation near Reidsville in October when Mrs. Jefferson Penn presented the estate to the University. Mrs. Penn, deciding to do something special for the girls who "guided" so charmingly and well, had a custom-made gold pin in the form of a chinquapin fashioned for each of the girls. These she presented at a campus reception in April.

". . . since the spirit of Charles Duncan Mcher pervades the entire campus, trans- cending any specific locality, the statue in his memory should be located at a focal point of the entire campus; and that since the court in front of the Library bears such relationship to the entire campus the statue should be moved, when necessary or possible, to such site."
This motion in 1957, made by the Trustees' Building Committee for Wom- an's College, paved the way for the relo- cation during the spring of Dr. Mclver's statue. Since its unveihng in 1911, the statue had stood on the Mclver Building lawn, facing Spring Garden Street; its new location is on the mall-area in front of the College Library. Problems of access, parking, drainage, and landscaping for the new Mclver Building made the move, which situated the statue facing the Stone Building of Home Economics, necessary.

Crabapple trees will eventually replace the dying-out cherry trees along College Ave- nue, thanks to the Class of 1962. This past year's Sophomore Class accepted this part of the campus beautification plan as their project. Their check for financing the purchase of the trees was presented to the College on the April day when the first twenty trees were planted. Eighty more will be added along the avenue in the fall.
TO INCREASE its attention to the field of speech in the education of women, the College will expand the department of drama to a department of drama and speech in September. Speech courses will be trans- ferred from the English department to the department of drama and speech.
A new and experimental speech testing program will be set up for all incoming freshmen in September as a part of the ex- pansion plans. The test will provide an oral examination to be given to students during Freshman Orientation Week. Each student will read a prose selection while speaking extemporaneously with the examiner and will be checked on basic elements in good speech. Students with sub-standard speech will be so informed and a process of improvement will be recommended for them.

May 28th's
REUNIONS
revisited
After a delectable luncheon served for us in the Alumnae House, the members of the Old Guard repaired to the Reference Room of the Walter Clinton Jackson Library for our annual meeting.
There were 24 members present.
Virginia (Brown) Douglas, this year's pres- ident, presided, and there was a short busi- ness meeting. May (Lovelace) Tomlinson was unanimously elected secretary for next year and president-elect for the following year.
Emma (Sharpe) Avery suggested that we vote our thanks to Misses Grogan and Penn for the lovely luncheon. That was passed unanimously.
Virginia Douglas then presented the speak- er of the afternoon, Mr. Charles M. Adams, Librarian of the Walter Clinton Jackson Library, who spoke to us on Book Collecting and Women. He showed us several interest- ing and rare books that he had been able to collect with the help of the alumnae. Miss Annie Petty, first librarian of the College, had given to him very recently a beautiful little book — not more than one mch square, bound in red leather: "Sayings of Abraham Lincoln". He had it protected by much tissue paper in a box. He asked us for any help we could give him in getting rare books for the Library. We all felt that we had had a very interesting and profitable address.
As there was no further business, meeting was adjourned.

"After fifty years nobody knows the place." But we did — seventeen of us out of the twenty-nine still living: Laura, Annie, Margaret, Willard, Marion, Mamie, Bessie, Elizabeth, Eleanor, Katie, Belle, Mellie (who came all the way from California), NX'innie, Annie Lee. Alice, Jane, and Eunice. It was most regrettable that Eunice slipped on the campus shortly after she arrived and sprained her wrist so that she had to stay in the hos- pital instead of joining us. Some of us roomed in Laura Coit Hall, headquarters for our class, and held talkfests until an hour too late to be divulged; others waited at home to vote and came onh' on Alumnae Dav.

That Day was memorable. First there was the meeting of the Alumnae Association when we were duly recognized and when we pridefully saw Laura honored with the Alumnae Service Award. President Julia Bar- rett, 1942. dispatched business with ease and saved time for Chancellor Blackwell and four new deans and the director of admis- sions to give an insight into the future of the College. Then followed the climax of the reunion, the beautiful luncheon which Laura gave at her home in Ining Park. There we were joined by Kate (Fleming) Brum- mitt, who had already stirred our memories by her articles in the Greensboro Daily News last fall. It was a heart-warming occasion. Pictures of children and grandchildren were shared, there was news about absent mem- bers (Edith Mason McLean, Mary Louise Weber, and Annette Munds Kenly had sent letters; Clyde called over the telephone), there was exchange of ideas about the con- temporary scene, and expressions of apprecia- tion appeared in both prose and poetry. But we did not sing — just why nobody thought to aslc. Perhaps we knew instinctively that the Alma Mater would not sound from our uncertain voices as it had fifty years ago when Laura wrote it and we unblushingly gave it to the College. At any rate we waited until the Alumnae Supper and sang with some four hundred younger alumnae. It had been a day of renewed friendships, heightened loyalty to the College, and hope for the future.

Everlasting president Iris Holt McEwen was fittingly dressed to greet the members of the Class of 1914 who came for their 46th reunion: she chose a green dress and white shoes and carried a straw tote bag, laced with green ribbon, to which had been attached a white rose.
The banner for the wall area behind the luncheon table and the darling little fans which Ruth Gunter, who was Luncheon Hostess, made followed along in the green- and-white tradition, too. Ethie Garrett Heine,

who joined Ruth in officially welcoming the class back to the campus, carried along the class-flower-tradition, too, by arranging beau- tiful white roses for the luncheon table.
After the luncheon which was sen'cd in Coleman Gymnasium, the twelve who were present (and who are identified in the reunion photograph) had a delightfully in- formal meeting. The letters and telegrams which had been received from those who were unable to come were read with appreci- ation. We talked about all of those absent and about ourselves.
Forty-six years have brought fame, for- tune, happiness and sorrow to us. Twelve of our number have died, and several have lost their husbands.
There are two M.D.'s in our group: Pattie Groves and Annie Scott. (Annie spent years in China as a medical missionary.) Mary Green Matthews has published a book: Wheels of Faith and Courage, a histon' of the city of Thomasville. Most all have taught school; several have been school principals. Two are in public welfare work.
It would seem that all have been inter- ested in some kind of civic work. "Service: would seem to have remained "Our Motto."
There has been much interesting and de- lightful traveling — in this country and in for- eign countries. Lillian Reeves has been to Europe five times. Iris McEwen has been to the countries around the world and to Europe twice.
From a discussion about children and grandchildren, these facts were gleaned: Bessie Craven Clinard has 5 daughters and 1 5 grandchildren; Ethie Heine has I son and 6 grandchildren; and Agnes Warren Stephens has 1 son and 5 grandchildren.
We send our love to those who could not join us, especially to two who are ill: Bessie Terry, a semi-invalid since she broke her hip in 1953, and Irene Robbins, who is in the hospital in Lenoir.
The class is very grateful to the Alumnae Office for the 1914 Booklet which was com- piled from the information returned on the questionnaire . . . and that everyone could not come for the reunion!
'15
Our Forty-fifth Reunion brought together twenty of our class for two days of joyous "togetherness". Friday evening we devoted to exchanging news of ourselves, looking at the pictures various ones had brought, and identifying remembered char- acteristics in the present mature versions of our 1915 selves.
Margaret Linker Wjatt made the arm bands which we proudly wore to the Alum- nae meeting Saturday morning. Cora Belle Sloan Caldwell with the help of her son made the poster of our class ring with the decorative spray of red carnations which designated our table at the Alumnae luncheon.
Janie Stacey Gwynn and Cora Belle Sloan Caldwell prepared the Memorial Sen'ice for the nine of our fifty who ha\e left us.
At the business meeting of our class, Edith Haight was promoted from \'ice President to Everlasting President. Cora Belle Sloan Caldwell was elected First Vice President and Mary \\'ilson Wall, Second \'ice President.
We are still trying to locate the where- abouts of Kate BuUard and Florence Hughes Voight. Can anyone help us?

"All credit and heartiest thanks" are given by the officers and members of the Class of 1916 to Claire Henley Atkisson and to Octavia Jordan Perry, who were respon- sible for the success and happiness of the 1960 reunion. Claire and Octavia shared the responsibilities of luncheon arrangements and official hostessing.
Outstanding among all of the decorations in Coleman Gymnasium where the '16ers joined the thirteen other reunioning groups for lunch were the violets which decorated the wall area behind the table bearing the "1916" banner. Octavia really "did herself and the class proud" in the making of those lavendar "beauties."
Since neither Annie Spainhour Walker nor Annie Beam Funderburk, everlasting officers of the class, could be present, the six who were present (identified in the reunion photo- graph) conducted the after-luncheon business informally. "A reliable report" as to what went on will be mailed to each member of the class before summer's end.
CLASS OF 1916: seated (1. to. r.): Jeannette (Cox) St. Aniand, Pauline (Wil- liams) Koonce. Standing: Claire (Henley) Atkisson, Lorena (Kemodle) Strat- ford, Lucy (Hatch) Brooks, Octavia (Jordan) Perry, and Sadie (Mc- Brayer) McCain.

The Class of 1917 held its re- union following the Alumnae luncheon with six members present: Ann (Daniel) Boyd, May Meador, Annie (Pierson) Stratford, Frances (Howard) Cox, Minnie (Long) Ward, and Isabel (Bouldin) Edmunds.
Some interesting statistics were gleaned from those present, such as: the 5 married members reported they have 12 children and 27 grandchildren; while May Meador con- fessed to 45 grandnieces and nephews! May has just retired after 41 years of teaching.
Ann Daniel Boyd drives for her husband, who is partially disabled, and averages 20-25 thousand miles per year. Their home is in Myrtle Beach.
Frankie Howard Cox's daughter is a writer, having had several books and short stories published.
Minnie Long Ward has one son, a law- yer, and 3 granddaughters. She lost her sec- ond son in the war.
Annie Peirson Stratford has 2 sons, one of whom is a doctor and the other manager of Stratford Hosiery Mills.
Isabel Bouldin Edmunds has 3 married daughters, all of whom graduated from Wom- an's College. Two were present at Com- mencement this year.
The six members of '17 declared them- selves a committee to plan for the next reunion in an effort to stimulate interest and have a larger number present when next we come together.
CLASS OF 1915: Seated (I. to r.): Hildah (Mann) Jones, Gay (Holman) Spivey, Louise (^^'hit- ley) Rice, Edith Haight, Vonnie (McLean) Hipps, Mary (Wilson) Wall, Margaret (Linker) Wyatt. Standing: Cora Belle (Sloan) Caldwell, Gertrude Carraway, Ethel CThomas) Aber- nathy, Pauline (Shaver) Moore, Ernestine Cherry, Martha (Decker) Kanipe, Janie (Stacy) Gwynn, Bessie (Wright) Ragland, Julia (Bryan) Futrell, Berthel (Mitchell) McLain, Hallie (Beavers) Allred, Mildred (White) Ritchie, Helen (Hunt) Parham.

More than thirt>' members of the Class of 1935 were back for the Silver Re- union. It was close as to who was least changed, had no gray hair, and hadn't gained weight, etc. We had come as far away as Williamsburg, Va., and Columbia, S. C. Everybody looked so well and happy and had lots of good things to account for "the years between" — study, children, interesting occupations, etc. Edythe Ellis Wyrick and her committee, with the help of the Alumnae Office, got out a fine booklet which brought half of us up to date and which many of you have seen and enjoyed. If there were space to list everybody who came back it would really make all of you wish you could have come. Christine Weeks Underwood and Jo Robinson Blackwood had decorated our table with the red and white colors and had made four posters of newspaper front pages carr>'ing banner headhnes such as "Dr. Jackson Succeeds Dr. Foust", etc. They did a grand job. Alice Taylor Stanley was on hand to greet us as we came in. These gals had arrived in a priceless '29 Ford with slo- gans of "our times" painted on it and cov- ered with red and white streamers. \\'hen they blew the horn, it was a riot! Miss Martus had an engagement which prevented her being there, and we missed very much seeing our Honorary' Member. Betty Lou Garrett, our Mascot, who is now Mrs. Paul Kersey of Greensboro, came to lunch with us and brought her darling little girl, Diane, with her. Bett^- still had her red leather mascot's jacket and a photograph of herself in it. Diane put on the jacket and went around so each of us could talk to her. She is just the age her mother was and looks exactly like the picture. Betty was most gracious and charming, and we were delighted that she and Diane could join us. Mebane Hollonian Burg- wyn and Helen Dugan Allen helped us with a contest and prizes which e\erybod\' seemed to enjoy. It really was wall-to-wall and all the news was good!

About 30 members of the Class of 1942 were on hand for their 18th reunion in Coleman Gymnasium. Preliminary arrange- ments had been made by Doris Robbins Preyer, who attended to luncheon details, and Mary Eppes (Eppie) Turner, who was the official "greeter." The class could boast of, perhaps, the most unique guest in attendance during Commencement Weekend: Geoffrey Burns, not-even-walking-yet son of Marjorie Bryant Burns. (Marjorie and Geoffrey flew from the north for the reunion ... it was Marjorie's first time back on the campus since 1942.)
Writes Sue Murchison Hayworth, who was on hand to function as Everlasting President: ". . . we met after lunch for a gab-fest. Had a grand time talking about ever\'body. Blanche Woollard Haggard had made some class direc- tories for us. 1 have a dozen left if anyone wants one. (Sue's address: Mrs. M. Samuel Hayworth, 1331 Sunset Avenue, Rocky Mount, N. C.) A marvelous time was had bv all!"
'43
The Class of '43 held its seven- teenth reunion luncheon in Coleman Gym- nasium on the campus. There were 60 en- thusiastic members present, each anxious to talk of herself and anxious to hear from and about her classmates.
Jane (Thompson) Davis presided, and after welcoming the members, she recog- nized those responsible for various phases of the reunion: Ella Marie (Pinkston) Rodman and Anne (Spivey) Wimbish, who had made the luncheon arrangements; and Gladys (Ses- soms) Elmore, who had been in charge of hostessing at the Alumnae House during registration.
Dr. Meta Helena Miller, our class chair- man, was unable to attend the reunion luncheon. Dr. Miller sailed from New York this same day for a holiday in Europe. Jane Davis read a letter from Dr. Miller to the class, expressing her regrets at not being able to be with the class and bringing the class up to date on various changes that had taken place at the College in recent years.
One of the most delightful phases of the luncheon was hearing from each member present, who told a little about herself or anything she knew about a classmate who wasn't able to attend the reunion.
The luncheon and meeting were pleasant and happy, and seventeen years had in no way changed the warm feeling of interest and friendship these members felt for each other. The only sad note was the thought that we aren't able to be together more often.
'44
The Sweet Sixteen reunion meeting of the class of 1944 was held in the lower regions of Coleman Gymnasium. All present descended filled with a picnic lunch enjoyed along with other reunited classes. Due to the alertness of our luncheon chair- man, Janice Hooke Moore, our table was graced by faculty guests representing most
14
THE ALUMNAE NE\\'S
departments of the college. Janice's zeal had, in fact, been reproached by classes left with- out guests, and she had responded by lend- ing "Daddy" (Dr. Malcolm Hooke) to an adjacent class.
The tone of our meeting was set by the informal cordiality of our Everlasting Presi- dent, Billie Upchurch Miller, who is the personification of her title. The forty-one members attending joined Betty Dorton Thomas in the class song. "Fight with all your might for the lavendar and white," was sung cheerfully, but no one could recall the verse about Sanford for governor.
Billie thanked Janice and her co-chairman, Jamie Fowler S\kes, for their work in prep- aration for the reunion and Dorothy Scott Darnell for producing the reunion booklet. The booklet not only stimulated interest in the reunion but also performed the service of putting far-scattered classmates in touch with each other again.
Our Secretary, Jean Dickey Kenlan, was unable to be present but was able to induce the special delivery service to deliver her il- lustrated greeting with uncanny timeliness. The many expressions of how keenly her absence was felt during the entire weekend are hereby noted for posterity.
Miss Florence Schaeffer and Mr. Gregory Ivy were presented by the Vice-President, Nancy Kirby West, who was unable to per- suade them to speak. Kirby then presented Miss Largent, Everlasting Class Chairman, who knew she had to speak. Miss Largent touched on the campus days of the class and, as always, left members feeling no class has ever quite equalled it. It seems that Bobbie Roy as "Gua" still rates in college memories.
Class Treasurers, Claire McRoberts Bart- lett and Doris McRoberts Piercy, read mes- sages from some 44's unable to be present. These included Bonnie Angelo Levy, Betty Snider Wilkins, Dot Levis Munroe, and Buffy Clay Garlichs.
Prizes were presented to long-distance trav- elers to the meeting: Anne Butler Twitty from Homestead, Florida and Sarah Hopper Harvie from Fishkill, New York. Cornielle Caraway Sineath presented her own prizes: her three lovely daughters who had come up from Wilmington with her.
Chancellor Gordon Blackwell stopped with us for a few minutes so that we could get acquainted with him and ask him questions about the College. Mothers of daughters took special interest in the Chancellor's remarks on admission policies.
The remainder of the meeting was devoted to indi\idual reports from each member pres- ent. Careers, husbands, children, travels, and organizations were described. Two major trends among home-makers towards outside activities were "I do too much" and "I have learned how to say 'No'." Much consulta- tion of the second group by the first was noted later.
Present for the meeting in addition to those mentioned were: Elizabeth King, Flor- ence Caldwell Touchstone, Mary Lib Dog- gett Beaman, Margaret Johnson Bryan, Betsy King Lucke, Dorothy Madsen Leustig, Vir- ginia Mayberry Elam, Barbara Ann Smith Hoover, Jean Bain Nance, Eugenia Cox Pratt, Chads Faulk Hayes, Margaret McFarland Lingerfelt, Margaret Odom Carlough, Jean Stevenson Petrea, Jerry Wall Williams, Hal March Scheffler, Mildred Thorpe Draper, Mollie Bowie Marsh, Irnia Siceloff Price, Anne Carter Freeze, Julia Pollock Plonk, Charlotte Jones Wagner, Betty Halligan Moebes, Ann Henning Moore, Betty Lou Howser Surratt, Nancy Ledbetter Dunlap, Armantine Dunlap Groshong, Carol Over- cash Dudley, Carolyn Scarborough Shinn, Arline Steinacher, Helen Sulli\an, Mary Agnes Cochran Ward, Jean Rickert Brawley, Laura Kincaid Ellis, Elizabeth Jordan Laney.

trhe reunion meeting of the Class of 1945 was called to order by Dianne Page Bench. Mary Frances Sutton Sinclair led the group in singing the class song, a venture which proved so surprisingly success- ful that she proceeded immediateh- to the College Song— also a rousing success. Dr. Lvda Gordon Shivers, our class chairman, was introduced next. It was a real pleasure to see her again and have her for luncheon guest. Dr. May Bush, Miss Inez Coldwell and Dr. Malcolm Hooke were other lunch- eon guests, but they were unable to attend the meeting afterward. (Dr. Hooke's pressing business was to rush home to catch the Sat- urday baseball game on T\'! ) The committee members who worked so diligently to make our luncheon the success it was were recog- nized. Henriette Manget Neal, the general luncheon chairman, recognized Jan Cox Speas and Eleanor Dare Taylor Kennedy who had charge of table decorations. Martha Hipp Henson was head of the hostess committee.
About this time Judy Barrett, the Alum- nae Association President, arrived with Chan- cellor Blackwell. It was a real pleasure to meet and chat with him the few minutes he was able to stay.
Next Dianne read the names of deceased members of the class, and this was followed by a moment of silent prayer. That list in- cludes: Marjorie (Bason) Lean, who died in 1958; Marie (Belk) Lipton, in 1950; Doro- thy Britt, in 1946; Evelyn 'Tiggie" (Butler) Phillips, in 1957; Helen (Hoover) De Maio, in 1957: Ann Page, in 1948; and Margaret (Potts) Purchase, in 1957.
The rest of the meeting was given over to "catching up" on each other, with each member standing and giving pertinent facts about herself and family — if any — over the last 15 years. There were 57 members of the class present, all looking remarkably well preserved and eager to meet again in five years — whether we have a reunion scheduled or not. It was a wonderful, wonderful get- to-gether — we missed you who couldn't get back — ^but hope you'll make every effort to make the next one.

IN two instances the reunion photographic equipment went "haywire." Upon develop- ment, the photographs of the classes of 1945 and 1950 rendered 99% of those photo- graphed unrecognizable. Two more reunion photographs are missing: 1917 and the 1959 Commercials. Both of these classes finished their meetings and were gone before the photographer could get to them. The editor and the photographer are very sorry about these four omissions.

The members of the Class of 1950 seemed to have a good time observing and talking about the changes which ten years had brought about in themselves and in the College, Despite the passing of the "fabulous fifties" decade, everyone was rec- ognizable.
Grey Lilley Wood, as Luncheon Hostess, had taken care to get the '50 spot in Cole- man Gymnasium, where lunch was served, appropriately decorated. On the bleachers, overlooking all the proceedings, sat "a dummy" which Grey had stuffed and dressed in a '50 class jacket and collegiate garb.
Joan Ferguson Hornaday buzzed about all weekend, fulfilling her duties as official "welcomer."
After lunch the 68 present trooped, with Everlasting President Nancy Porter in the lead, to the Modern Dance Studio, and from then to the end of the official reunion, the report is that "talk followed more talk" . . . about husbands, children, jobs, the absentees from the reunion. Reportedly, photographs of "off-springs" were in abundance.
Since the photograph of the reunioning group left everyone unrecognizable, the names of those who "were present and accounted for" are listed: Ramona (Austin) Wilson, Alice Boehret, Jean Fisher Hedrick, Hildur \on Hammerstein Zorn, Margharetta Eld-
ridge Beitzell, Nell Jones Clary, Alston Mc- Keithan Williams, Lee Mahan Evans, Con- nie Miller Sweeney, Melrose Moore Stocks, Allen?

Measles played something of a part in the reunion of the Class of 1955.
Everything had been gotten ready for the return-after-five years. Carolyn Earnhardt Oden had seen to it that the spot assigned to '55 in Coleman Gymnasium had been fittingly decorated. She had attached a clothes line on the wall behind the luncheon table, and on it she had pinned, among other memorabilia, a red '55 class jacket, an assortment of baby diapers and a mortar- board . . . items which definitely marked the passage of the '55ers' time. Carolyn Falls Grove had stationed herself in the Alumnae House "to offer the glad hand" to returnees.
Then the telegram came: "Sorry to miss the fun. Attendance canceled by Kathy's measles, (signed) Deanie Chatham Calway."
Kathy's measles necessitated the '55ers' going ahead without the official direction of their Everlasting President, who had planned her trip from Alabama so painstakingly.
And "go ahead" the class did, regretting that Deanie couldn't be on hand, but rejoic- ing that each of them had been able to come. Gaye Stewart \\'akefield, at the re- quest of the Alumnae Office and completely unrehearsed, stepped into Deanie's place.
When the class congregated in Rosenthal Gymnasium for their after-luncheon meeting, much was the con\ersation, and many were the family pictures shown. Much had hap- pened in the five intervening years, and everybody was interested in everybody else's business. Those of \'ou who could not make the reunion were very much missed . . . and, rest assured. \our business came in for its share of discussion, too.

The Class of 1959, although small in reunion-ing number, had a wonder- ful time at their first reunion. It seems that most of the members of the class who didn't walk down the aisle last June are doing it this June so planning weddings, caring for husbands, children, and jobs took prece- dence over reunion. Those who were present, however, caught us all up on details concern- ing those who were not there, and business was conducted in behalf of the entire class.
Alumnae Representative Julie Shore ga\'e a report concerning contributions from mem- bers of our class to the Alumnae Fund. As Julie so wisely put it "the Woman's College seems to have prospered even without the Class of 1959, but we still need to do our share if they are to continue to prosper." Julie was referring to the construction of the new dormitory behind Weil-Winfield and the near completion of the new Mclver building. All '59ers were impressed by the changes in the external appearances of the college which had been made during our year away and are prouder than ever to wear the Woman's College ring.
The class joined in a lively discussion con- cerning the dispensation of last year's class treasury which had been stipulated for the scholarship fund. President Peg Duncan called for a motion to turn over all of our class funds to the scholarship fund to be used to aid a worthy and needy student. This motion was made by Alice Wingate and agreed upon by the Class. Business was cut short as the class members wanted to use the time for visiting friends and renew- ing acquaintances.
The Class all met together for the Alum- nae Luncheon and enjoyed the lovely work done by the Luncheon hostess. Jane Cheek, who had taken care of decorations and was in charge of all of the details concerning our luncheon together. The first reunion, from the time Terry Garrison greeted us at the door, through the enlightening meetings, until Margaret Martin finally said: "All's been said that can be said until we have
our fifth," was a memorable one for all who attended. Plans are now in progress for informing all '59ers of the next reunion which will be held not only with our imme- diate class members but our sister class, the Class of '57. Start saving now and start planning now ... its fun for you and your family . . . and don't forget the ALUMNAE FUND. It needs you as the Woman's Col- lege needs you.

Commercials
The Woman's College Com- mercial Class of 1959 held its first Class Reunion after a delicious luncheon in Cole- man Gymnasium with its Everlasting Presi- dent, Ginny Hackett, presiding. Returning to their Alma Mater beside Ginny were Georgia Cranfill, Carol Horton, Helen Cald- well, Julia Paul, Bette Dermit, Elizabeth (Hodges) Johnson, Nancy (McDowell) New- ton, Linda (Hall) Helms, Connie Griffin, Ann Cato, Betty Jordan, Joyce Byrd and Susan Stephenson. The girls were joined by their former teachers, Miss Mary Harrell, R. J. Allen and Ernest E. Miller. The class had a very enlightening time hearing about their former classmates' jobs, bosses and many of their husbands. Each girl told who she worked for, where, and some of her duties, which resulted in the fact that not all commercial students from Woman's Col- lege end up with secretarial or accounting positions. TTie jobs were varied, and none sounded a bit dull or boring. Although a lot was learned during their one year of college, the girls found out that much more was learned during one year of working.
Before closing the meeting, the Class de- cided to ha\'e another reunion in five years, with the hopes that more of the girls would attend after they were a little more settled in their jobs and married lives. A year of col- lege, a year of working, and a class reunion helped each girl to realize how much she had to be thankful for, being an Alumna of Woman's College of the University of North Carolina.
Susan Stephenson Everlasting Secretary
A group of Alamance County alum- nae met on April 20 to play bridge and to talk about reactivat- ing their chapter which has been inactive for several years. A steer- ing committee was formed, and plans for a fall dinner meeting were discussed. Tlien on June 14 the group met again; Clyde (Nor- com) Iseley '33 presided; this time, action was forthcoming; The nominating commit- tee's slate was accepted by acclimation: chair- man Caroline Veno, vice-chairman Merle (Sutton) Sharpe '59, and secretary-treasurer Barbara (Mangum) Bowland '51. October II was set as the date for the fall meeting, and it was announced that Chancellor Gordon Blackwell will be the guest. I960 graduates, who will be honored at the meeting, will serve together as the hospitality committee. Plans were made for a tea in the fall to hon- or the girls who will enroll at the College. The group decided to increase the amount of their already-existing chapter loan fund which is administered by the College and is used by students from the county.
Franda (Dobson) Pedlow '55 spearheaded the revival meeting of the Boston, Massa- chusetts chapter of the Window Shop Restau- rant on April 12. "A great deal of chatting about things past and present at the College made everyone feel at home." Plans were made to accept the invitation of Antoinette (Loetsch) Mock '24 to meet in her home in Wellesley Hills during July. An added at- traction to Antoinette's invitation is a back- yard swimming pool!
Dr. Kenneth Howe, dean of the School of Education, talked with the members of the Buncombe County chapter about "New Dimensions in Education" at their luncheon at the Battery Park in Asheville on March 19. During the business session Betty BuUard '52 was elected to serve as the new chairman, and Helen (Lichtenfels) Gumpert '33, Pa- tricia Blackburn '59, and Ruth Whitson '46 are sening with her as vice-chairman, secre- tary, and treasurer, respectively.

THE ALUMNAE NE\\'S
on July the first
On March 18 Chancellor and Mrs. Black- well met with the Burke County alumnae and their husbands in the Morganton Com- munity House. While the group was assem- bled, new officers were elected: Eleanor But- ler '57, chairman; Betty Lou (Mitchell) Gui- gou '51, vice-chairman; and Margaret (Pierce) Stroupe '28, secretar\-treasurer.
Inez (Shuford) Starnes '39 was elected chairman of the Catawba County chapter to succeed Ellen (Shuford) Biggs '52 when chap- ter activity was resumed after several "dor- mant" years at a dinner-meeting in the First Methodist Church in Hickory on March 17. Chancellor Blackwell and Alumnae Secretar>' Barbara Parrish met with the group which elected Imogene (Cashion) Pritchard '41 to serve with Inez as vice-chairman; Alice (Mil- ler) Watts '55, as secretary; and Elaine (Solo- mon) Zerden '48, as treasurer. The parents of students presenth' enrolled at the College were invited to join the group as "dutch" guests.
The Columbia, South Carolina chapter is due two reports. In the first place. 140 people attended the chapter's annual benefit bridge party, held this >ear on February 1 1 at the ESSO Community Center. Fourteen door prizes, donated by members, were gi\en away during the evening; four home-made cakes were raffled off; four members served as mod- els for a preview showing of spring hats; re- freshments were made by the members and ser\ed buffet style. A good time was had by all; the chapter's scholarship fund was richer by $110. Then, in May, Dr. Eugenia Hunter of the School of Education met with the chapter at a dinner meeting at Russell House on the University of South Carolina campus. During the meeting officers were elected. Thus far, the only for-sure one known about by the Alumnae Office is Kathryn (Oliver) Floyd '53, who was elected chairman.
No official word has been received as yet, but the unofficial report is that sometime during the spring Toaksie (Tucker) Maloncy '57 was elected to succeed Ethel (Fleishman) Vatz '31C as chairman of the Cumberland County chapter.
The Greater Washington chapter is once again a reality! The revival movement began on March 1 1 when some thirty alumnae gathered in Washington for dinner at the Water Gate Inn. Names were signed to veri- fy interest; Lu (Stephenson) Bloch '57 kept the list and kept the ball rolling. Eleven of "the interested" met on April 21: they talked about a business-like basis for future activity and did preliminary planning for a meeting on May 24. On that date in the evening in the Merchant Marine and Fisheries Room of the Old House of Representatives Building, some fifty alumnae met, and the chapter "was off again and running." Nine of the eleven "steerers" were on hand: Lu chaired the meeting; Anne (Buie) Butler '56 served as secretary; Pat (Bivens) Darcey '56 and Fran (Walden) Jacobs '56 were in charge of the coffee-and-cookie end of things; and Thelma (Thompson) Miller '54, Nancy (Harper) Mor- ris '59, Pat Shore '58, Sue (Fleming) Alem '55, and Julie Shore '59 stood by to assist whatever needed. The group adopted a con- stitution which specifies regular meetings
every second month from September through May and which authorizes an executive com- mittee with a representative from each of the component areas (D. C, Virginia, and Maryland) as the governing body. Lu was made temporary chairman, and Ruth (Ker- nodle) McDonald '17 and Mary Alice (Vann) Fox '44 were selected as chapter advisers. A June 29 meeting was set for the steering com- mittee at whch time plans for the September meeting and nominations for a permanent Executi\-e Committe will be made.
Three days after spring officially arrived, the members of the Durham County chapter gathered at Man' (Harris) Clayton's home for a Spring Party: no speaker or guests, just a good-time, get-acquainted party. Chairman Jane (Sarsfield) Shoaf '52 directed miscellane- ous games which were appropriately based on alumnae knowledge of the College. Plans were tentatively made for a Founder's Day Birthday Party on October 5th at Duke Pow- er Company in Durham. . . the program: \\'onian's College via television. Then, dur- ing April, the chapter sponsored another round of parties for prospective and currently enrolled students. Mary Clayton again lent her home for the Northern High School girls, and Jane Shoaf, hers for the Durham High School girls. Elizabeth Clay '38 engi- neered an after-school gathering of the South- ern High School "prospects." The composite report: many questions by the high schoolers, and many answers bj- the currently enrolled.
Mr. A. C. Hall, professor emeritus of Eng- lish, was the guest of the Forsyth County alumnae at their spring luncheon meeting on May 21 at the Woman's Club. He talked with his audience, who were seated at tables decorated in the yellow-and-white of daisies and gladioli, about "Grave Humor:" unusual epitaphs which he has collected for many years. At officer-election time Marylynn (Rob- erson) Coghill '51 was elected to serve another term as chairman, and these were chosen to serve with her: Mary Sandra Schul- ken '58, vice-chairman; Annie Preston (Heilig) Fearrington '20, secretary; and Fran- ces (Leatherwood) Adams '52, treasurer.
More than $300 was cleared b\- the Greens- boro chapter on its 1959-60 Scholarship-Lec- ture Series. Beginning in December and con- tinuing into January and February, the series featured Dr. Richard Current (history), Dr. Kenneth Howe (education), and panelists: Miss Elizabeth Hathaway (home economics), Mr. Walter Moran (art), and Mr. Edward Loewenstein (art). New officers for the chap- ter were elected by mailed ballot in early June: Margaret (Johnson) Watson '48, chair- man; Mary Elizabeth (Sampson) Irvin '53, first vice-chaimian; Sue (Baxter) Leonard '53, second vice-chairman; and Julia Ann (Dog- gett) Laughlin '53, secretary-treasurer.
Miss Louise Alexander, professor emeritus of political science, was assuredly an appro- priately chosen speaker for the High Point- Jamestown chapter meeting on May 1 1 at the High Point Friends Church. Her topic in this election year: POLITICS. The chapter mem- bers did a bit of electing, too: Miriam (Wil- son) Bollinger '47 was selected to serve for two years as vice-chairman, and Miriam (Skin- ner) Erath '52, for a similar term as treasurer.
Several meeting reports are in order for the Jacksonville, Florida chapter. After a year and a half of inactivity, "business" has picked up. At a meeting on December 16 in the Ca- mellia Room of the Roosevelt Hotel, vice- chairman Carohn (Wheatley) Davidson '42 appointed a nominating committee. On Janu- ary 28 the group met again to hear and to accept unanimously this committee's report: chairman Doris (Braswell) Sweetland '46, vice- chairman Betty Jane (Sarratt) Cowan '46, secretary Mary (Scott) Haley '37C, and treas- urer Sara Ann Williams '50. The fourth Tuesday in April was set for the next quarter- ly meeting date; Carolyn Davidson invited the group to her home; Dorothy (Blaney) Robinson '46 talked with the fourteen mem- bers present about her work in connection with adoptions. She has been with the Child Welfare Division of Florida for three years. .Mthough her remarks were informative and quite serious, she also brought in the humor- ous aspects, as well, and she urged that her hearers encourage anyone in their acquaint-

ance contemplating an adoption to go through the proper channels. Plans were made by the group for a summer luncheon meeting at noon on July 21 in the Jean Ri- bault Room (overlooking the St. Johns River) m Sears. The program attraction will be a preview fall fashion showing of suits, coats, furs, and the like.
The Jackson\'ille alumnae are very mterest- ed in contacting any alumnae who are being transferred by the Atlantic Coast Line from Wilmington to Jacksonville. The person to call? Chairman: Mrs. Guy Svveetland (Doris), 145-3 5th Street, South, Jacksonville Beach (CH 9-4788).
During February while Katherine (White) Raiford, the College's field representative, was working in their area, the members of the Martin and Washington Counties chap- ters staged a joint dinner-meeting at the Roa- noke Country Club in Williamston.
Something new was done by the Martin County chapter at their meeting following the February 4 joint dinner-meeting with the Washington County folks. They elected co- chairmen: Patsy (Blalock) Ward '54 and Eliz- abeth (Griffin) Green '55, both of Roberson- ville. Following their election, they planned for April 15 (during Spring Holidays) a coke party for the currently enrolled and pros- pective students form the county. A first- hand report indicated that all went VERY well.
New Hanover County alumnae joined their Carolina and State College "brothers" for a Greater University dinner-meeting on May 19 at the Cape Fear Country Club in Wilmington. Chapter chairman Betty Hill '53 and Janet (Weil) Bluethenthal '12 rep- resented Woman's College on the local ar- rangements committee. The presence of the three chancellors of the University branches (Aycock, Blackwell, Caldwell) added to the consolidarity of the occasion. The New Han- over alumnae thoughtfully invited their "sis- ters" from Duplin, Fender, Onslow, Bladen, and Brunswick counties to join them for the dinner.
Mary Belle (Price) Coupe '45 invited the alumnae in the upper-part of New York State and their husbands to her home in Syracuse on Sunday afternoon. May 22, for a covered- dish, picnic-style luncheon. Laura (Whisnant) VanNortwick '35x entertained the group by reviewing the biography of Dr. Charles Dun- can Mclver. Then while the wives conducted their chapter business, the husbands were taken on a tour of Syracuse University by chapter chairman Juanita (McDougald) Mel- chior's husband. Plans were made for, per- haps, a state-wide Mclver celebration among the alumnae on the October Saturday pre- ceding Founder's Day.
The Randolph County alumnae met for after-dinner dessert and bridge on May 20 at Annie (Moring) Alexander's home in Ashe- boro. They financed this first-time-tried af- fair by charging one dollar: fifty cents for dues and a similar amount for party expenses.
The report of the Scotland County chapter meeting in the January issue did not include a list of the group's new officers. They are chairman: Mildred (Howard) Williams '41, and secretary-treasurer: Virginia (Livingston) Muse '39; members of the executive com- mittee: Lottie Mae (Julian) Buie '25x of Wag- ram, Naomi Gibson '36 of Gibson, and Susan (Steele) Woodard '26 of Laurel Hill.
A report on a college year to be spent in France and a report on a part of a year al- ready spent in Burma were the highlights of the spring meeting of the Wake County chapter on May 18. Betty Jane Gardner, hold- er of the chapter's scholarship and the first Woman's College student selected to spend her junior year abroad, told the more-than-50 chapter members who assembled in the Grill Room of the State College Cafeteria about her plans for studying art in Paris next year. Mr. Bobby Smith, a member of the State College staff, gave an illustrated talk about his experiences as an International Farm Youth Exchange delegate to Burma. During the business portion of the meeting Helen (Parker) Kilnian '41 was elected to suc- ceed Lois Frazier '42 as second vice-chairman, and Patsy Haywood '53 was elected to suc- ceed Elizabeth (Jones) Cease '47 as secretary.
In October, when the Washington County chapter met for its Founder's Day observance, plans were tentatively made for a spring meeting in April. A report has been received that the group met jointly with the Martin County chapter in February, but the pro- ceedings of the April meeting have not reached the Alumnae Office as yet.
When the Green Room of the Hotel Du Pont was chosen for the meeting-place of the Wilmington, Deleware chapter, the crowd was underestimated. On January 28, eighteen alumnae appeared (there would have been 21 if three others hadn't had illness in the fami- ly at the last minute) . . . more than had usually put in appearance at the chapter's an- nual meetings. Cramped though the quarters were, the group, chaired by Gave (Stewart) Wakefield '55, had a very enjoyable time be- ing together . . . and feasting on "the im- pressive buffet spread of food."

All that Janie (Smith) Archer '52 lacks in her plan to initiate an alumnae chapter in Greene County is word from the Alumnae Office. This has been too long in coming, but in the fall chances are very good that an organizing meeting will be announced to the county's alumnae residents.
The gatherings in Hampton, Virginia dur- ing Spring Holidajs were never referred to as chapter meetings, but they seem to be like- ly spring-boards for a chapter organization . . . and so, the reports of them are hope- fully printed here. The precipitating reason for the gatherings of the alumnae in the Hampton area was the visit of Dr. Helen Barton, who retired at the end of the session as head of the mathematics department, and her successor. Dr. Anne Lewis, to the Nation- al Aeronautics and Space Administration lab- oratories at Langley Field. The fifteen alum- nae who are employed in the NASA labora- tories and Drs. Barton and Lewis were guests at a special luncheon in the Field cafeteria during the day of inspection. And in the evening a dozen other alumnae who live in the area joined the 1 5 NASA-ers in arranging a dinner party at the home of Gladys (Storey) Martz '47 in Yorktown to honor the College visitors.
Helen (Russell) Gaines '55 reports that she and Carolyn (Phillips) Kingdon '49x "are going to make an effort to get an alumnae chapter started" in Kingsport, Tennessee. Alumnae in that area who are interested should let their interest be known. Helen is Mrs. James F. Gaines at 2512 Sanford Drive; Carolyn is Mrs. William R. Kingdon at Pres- eon Woods, Route 8.
Dottie (Lee) Schaeffer '57 has done a bit of contacting and plans "to really get some- thing going this summer" in the area of Pennsylvania around Kutztown, where she lives. Her aim is for a chapter organization; you who live within driving distance, let her hear from you. She's Mrs. Forrest S. Schaef- fer, Jr., 428 West Main Street in Kutztown.

The Class of 1918 has lost two members since the first of the year: Pauline Benton and Louise Black.
Pauline, who had taught history at John Marshall High School in Richmond, Virginia, since 1924, died on February 28th of a heart attack. Her two sisters went to Richmond when she was hospitalized and were with her when she passed away.
A faculty colleague said that Pauline was especial!)' good with difficult pupils. When the announcement of her death was made in one of those classes, some of the boys wept unashamedly. A short period of silence was held throughout the school in her memory.
Louise Black died in Fayetteville on April 23 after a long illness. In February', she was honored by the Woman's Club of that city and was awarded the "Teachers' Oscar of the Year." A valuable citizen and an asset to the schools and the city, Louise was se- lected for his honor by the secret ballot of a committee of representatives from various cix'ic organizations.
Both Louise and Pauline were dedicated teachers whose influence for good was deeply fe'.t by all their students.
Our Class extends sympathy to their fami-

-*- ^-^ Thelma Mallard retired at the dose of the school year, following 35 years teaching home economics, biology and psy- chology at Columbia High School in South Carolina. Thelma received her master's degree in education from the University of South Carolina. She also studied at George Peabody College in Nashville, Tenn.; University of Tennessee, and Teachers College of Columbia University in New York. She taught for 8 years in North Carolina before joining the Columbia school system.
Sue Ramsey (Johnston) Ferguson's Taylors\'ille Girl Scout Troop Camp, now in its 12th consecutive season, is a unique institution in many ways, according to a June 15 article in the Greensboro Daily News. Begun in 1948 as a day camp, it has been a "tenting out" camp for four years. This season, the members of the troop, whose ages average 12 years, camped out among the trees in the apple orchard on the pond on Sue Ramsey's country estate, Liledoun. During the years the camp has been something of a Ferguson fam- ily affair: son Jim has served as general camp assistant, administered first aid, and demon- strated how "to do" the many things which have to be done at a camp; daughter Laura (who this summer is touring Europe) has taught riding. The fee for a week's camping is one dollar per girl. This, in addition to what the girls have made by selling cookies and other projects and food donated by local grocers and townsfolk, covers the entire cost of the camp. Community cooperation is very important to the success of the camp under- taking; water, brought regularly from a spring, and the swimming pond are inspected without charge by the local health department; local doctors give free pre-camp examinations to the campers; the Alexander County hospital stands by on a volunteer basis to care for any casualties.
June 1st was Carrie Phillips Day at Brooks School in Greensboro. The day ended with a program by the Parent-Teacher Association. Miss Phillips has taught for 45 j'ears and for the past ten years has served as principal of Brooks School. She received her master's de- gree from the University of North Carolina, Chapel Hill, and studied at Columbia Univer- sity, New York University and ^\'oman's Col- lege. She has not announced her plans for re- tirement, but those who know her know that she will find plenty to do.

"Our section is planning to get an IBM 7090 this summer, and we are all looking forward to this. It is a much faster machine and it has a larger core than the 704," wrote Barton (Edwards) Bruce '57 in December from her position with the National Aeronautics and Space Adminis- tration (NASA) at Langley Field in Vir- ginia to Dr. Helen Barton of the mathe- matics department.
"Much of my own work is mathemati- cal programming for the IBM 704. (We will have a 7090 - transitorized - eventu- ally.)," wrote Jaylee (Montague) Burley ' 5 1 sometime ago from her NASA position in Washington, D. C, to Dr. Barton.
"Our computer is an IBM 704, but we hope to get a 7090 in the not too distant future," wrote Mary Tuttle (Whisnant) Hedgepeth '46 from her post at the Ed- ward's Air Base in Lancaster, California, to her aunt, Caroline (Goforth) Hogue '17.
From three parts of the country three mathematicians write of their hopes for an IBM 7090. And not only do these alumnae share a common 7090-hope; in their separate and assigned ways they are working on common projects, it would seem.
In December Barton was running tra- jectories on the "Little Joe" and "Atlas" for the MERCURY Project - manned
-IBM 7090 hopes-
capsule. She did a wind study on the project in which "Sam," the space mon- key, took the ride. Joan Pitts '57 and Barton work in the Analytical Computing section under the supervision of Kathleen Wicker '45 at Langley Field.
Jaylee is in the Theoretical Division of NASA. "As the name indicates we do most of the planning — long-range — for the launching of satellites, moon probes, and such. . . . this is the overall goal, for to accomplish this involves much research in many areas of physics, astrophysics, and related fields. We are doing a lot on lunar atmosphere, magnetic fields, deter- mination of orbits, and very practical problems for Project MERCURY: how to get the 'Space Man' back to earth."
Basically, "Mary Tuttle's job is to pro- gram, in machine language, any of the almost endless calculations required in the work of the Edward's base. Recently she has been concerned mostly with theoreti- cal projects in connection with flight re- search. "A good many of my problems," she writes, "are in simulated flights or simulated missile trajectories With- out actually flying a mission, we can pre- dict what will happen in a variety of conditions — and then what will happen if we alter one or a combination of these conditions. We can predict, for instance, how far, how fast, etc."
