The Making of the Peace

^Yor one white, singing hour of peace
Count many a year of strife well lost" . . .

— Sara Teasdale

A new dawn of peace breaks upon the horizon . . . the long, bitter years of strife are
ended . . . and before us stretches the formless future. A sigh of relief escapes our lips. Is
it really true? The sad, lonely hours, days, months of watching and waiting are over.
Truth and justice have triumphed, as we were certain they someday would. But we shall
not forget the costly price of that victory, and our thoughts will ever turn toward those
who did not live to see its fulfillment.

Rest for a moment. Breathe in the fresh air of freedom once again. But do not pause
too long ... it is time to put our shoulders to the wheel and strive with renewed vigor
to rebuild our future world upon the ruins of the past. We have received the prize of
peace ... it is our task to make it longlasting. To that task we humbly dedicate our-
selves — to the making of the peace !

BROMPTON

BROMPTON, suggestive of "Merrie Eng-
' land" and "La Belle France," fair lands across
the mighty Atlantic Ocean, which in the time of
"Yester Years" gave of their Manhood and
Womanhood, the brave, the hardy pioneers, who,
weary of the gigantic conflicts of Europe sought
a New Home in the New World where, undis-
turbed by the upheavals of Europe, they could
build for themselves and their posterity a new
home in the New World beyond the Atlantic.

The "First Colony" at Jamestown was in 1607
and was succeeded by the exploration of the Rap-
pahannock River by Capt. John Smith in 160S,
in which year, so far as known, the eye of the
"white man" first saw the tree-covered top of
what is now known as Brampton, the ancient and
historical estate, which has in 1945, been ac-
quired for use as a portion of the grounds of the

Mary Washington College for Women of the
University of Virginia.

This land is part of a "Crown Grant" of 2,000
acres to John Buckner and Thomas Royston of
May 2, 1671 for the transportation of 40 persons
into the colony. This ancient "Crown Grant" is
still extant and notably testifies to the courage,
hardihood and bravery of the women of that early
time, for among the "forty persons" transported
into the colony, whose transportation was the
consideration for the Grant, are listed Mary
Parker, Dorcas Young, Elizabeth Sharps, Blanch
Harding, Mary Thompson, Mary Greeford, Ara-
bella Singleton, and Ann Townsend, and who can
deny that brave women from thence till now have
not mightily contributed to building that Free
America in a New World of Lofty Ideals, Tolera-
tion, and Christian Comprehension.

Ms"

In February, 1727, the Town of Fredericksburg
was formed by Act of the House of Burgesses of
Virginia, taking the river front of the Patent, an
area of 50 acres, and the remaining 1,950 acres
by successive deeds were divided, the "up-river"
or northwestern half to John Royston, and the

"down-river" or southeastern half, including the
Brompton land to Col. Henry Willis.

Incidentally part of this lower half is now the
beautiful National Cemetery, in which sleep
15,296 Union Soldiers, interred there immediately
after the Civil War, and known in National
Annals as Willis Hill — a true hill-up the side,
on, and over the top, and down on the other
side. Not so with Brompton, however, for
Brompton is on high land at the summit of the
escarpment.

The English, for thousands of years, have had
the sea in their blood; their gaze has ever been
seaward, not landward, and from their high
ground, looking ever to the sea, they observed
the land sloping from the convex escarpment

down to the next level, then down again by suc-
ceeding "downs," to the sea shore, with its little
sandy ridges washed by the sea on the shore lines,
and being little "downs" — the last to the water —
they called them "dunes."

The whole, however, were the English
"Downs," along the heights of which for cen-
turies from "London-town" had run, and now
runs the "Brompton Road," on which is now
situated one of the oldest and prettiest ceme-
teries — "God's Acre" — in all England, where
sleep awaiting the Resurrection Morn, many
of the mighty dead of the English Kings
and their Lords, some of whom opposed the
Roman invasion quite two milleniums gone by,
before Saxon, Dane, and Norman had become
amalgamated into the present British Union.

The Marye family were French Protestants-
Huguenots, to whom, by the Edict of Nantes,
signed by the French King, Henry IV on April
15, 159S were granted full civil rights and liberty
of conscience to worship God without molesta-
tion from King or Subject, Bishop or Priest. The
Revocation of the Edict by King Louis, on Oc-
tober 18, 16S5 deprived the Protestants of France
of all civil and religious liberty, thus giving a new
incentive to the emigration, mostly to England,
of the Huguenots among whom were the Maryes
and many of whom, after years in England, emi-
grated to Virginia, where they became outstand-
ing citizens.

In the peculiar richness of its rural scenery
Brompton perhaps surpasses other portions of the
Virginia Piedmont and Tidewater. It is at the
"Foot of the Falls" and commands a view of
both the eastern limit of the Piedmont and of the
western limit of the Tidewater.

At the foot of the "Downs" the non-tidal

water of the Piedmont, coming down from the
eastern slope of the Blue Ridge Mountain, meets
the tidal water sweeping up-river from the At-
lantic Ocean and Chesapeake Bay. At the Falls
the river, in countless ages, has cut its way through
the living granite, and the high lands on both
sides of the river, looking eastward a distance of
eight miles, describe great semi-circles each con-
cave to the river, thus forming, as it were, a great
"Punch Bowl," on the rim of which sits Bromp-
ton and other beautiful and historic homes, each
of commanding view.

From the mouth of the Rappahannock River,
upstream for miles, the country is flat, and farther
up it is largely marshes, or steep precipitous cliffs,
and what a lovely sight must it have been to the
settlers in the Fredericksburg region when, after
a voyage from England, and reaching the present
Brompton area, they saw the counterpart of their
lovely "Downs" of England, the land from the
river bank rising to the present Caroline Street
level, thence to the Princess Anne Street level, and
along the plains to the escarpment rising the con-
vex surface to the summit where Brompton now
stands, the "Mansion House" of substantial brick
to be begun by John Lawrence Marye, after his
initial purchase of ten acres from William Gordon
and William Allen, September 26, 1821, and as
shown by increase assessments on the land assess-
ment books, almost year by year of additions to
the dwelling house.

Unlike Willis "Hill," home of Colonel Willis,
visited by William Byrd, progenitor of Senator
Harry F. Byrd, in 1732, Brompton is not on a
hill, but caps the escarpment, with level land back
to the west until the western country reached into
the "Wilderness" of the Civil War of 1860-1865.
It was to rise this escarpment and capture Gen.

Robert E. Lee's headquarters at Brompton that
the Northern generals vainly sent their heroic
troop in the tragic battle of Fredericksburg, and
the Northern Army correspondents, not knowing
the terrain, or nature of the country, to the im-
mediate west of Brompton, and being "land-

ward" in their outlook, not "seaward" as the
British of the English "Downs," gave to the
whole expanse of the battlefield the sobriquet of
" Marye 's Heights," as it is known in the termi-
nology of American Military History.

To his original purchase of 10 acres, John
Lawrence Marye added other purchases of con-
tiguous land, increasing his holdings to several
hundred acres, an addition being the Alum Spring
Wood Tract to the west, a hundred and seventy-
nine acres.

On the Alum Spring Tract was a dam im-
pounding the waters ol Hazel Run, affording
waterpower to run a large grist mill of stone con-

struction, with stone miller's houses and stone
granaries, serving this region before the American
Revolution, and during the Revolution providing
flour and meal for the Revolutionary Armies.
This mill, with its accompanying buildings, be-
came what would now be called a "Veteran's

Hospital" for wounded and sick Revolutionary
Soldiers and many from the battle of Yorktown
were brought here for medical aid and surgical
treatment.

The Rev. James Marye, first of this prominent
family to come to Virginia, was a native or
Rouen, Normandy and from thence to London,
from which ran the "Brompton Road" in Kent.
He married Maria Ann Staige, daughter of the
Anglican minister, and sailed from London in
September 1729, arriving in Virginia, settled in
Manajin-Town, in present Goochland County,
and was soon called to Saint George Parish in
Spotsylvania County where he continued until
his death in 1767.

His son, the second Rev. James Marye, who
had studied at the College of William and Mary,
succeeded his father in Saint George Parish, in
which Parish is Brompton, and to the second Rev.
James Marye and. his wife, nee Mildred Slaughter,
was born John Lawrence Marye, builder and
owner of Brompton. John Lawrence Marye was
a member of the Virginia Legislature in 1S60-61,
and consequently a member of that body when
the Ordinance of Secession was adopted, and Vir-
ginia became one of the Confederate States of
America.

Brompton passed into the ownership of the
Lanes, thence to Capt. M. B. Rowe and thence to
the Mary Washington College for Women of the
University of Virginia. At the foot is the Sunken
Road of Civil War fame; on its height were the
headquarters of Gen. Robert E. Lee at the san-
guinary Battle of Fredericksburg, December 1861,
where the Northern Army crossed the Rappahan-
nock River to undertake the impossible.

The world has many battlefields, but around
Brompton is the memoralization of the courage-
ous devotion of men who carried on the traditions
that Americans will die for their convictions,
which is in accord with the educational philosophy
of the age, which aims to give the learning
process more vitality, to make truth more real.

Viewed from its crest, one can see a mile away,
the Northern Neck of Virginia, to which region
James II on February 10, 16S7 granted the right
of Religious Freedom to the settlers — "the free
exercise of their Religion without being prose-
cuted or molested upon any penall laws or other
account for the same," and the Kings Highway is
on the north side of the river, and the Tidewater
Trail on the south side, along both of which
streamed the settlers to penetrate the "gaps" of

the Blue Ridge Mountain, thence over the Valley
of Virginia and the Alleghany Mountains, to the
"Winning of the West." As surely as the ships of
the world have navigated the English Channel in
view of Brompton on the English Downs, so
surely have peoples of the early American days,
in almost endless streams, passed "Brompton
Downs" in Spotsylvania County in their journey
to the West.

History, we dare hope, is repeating itself at and
around Brompton and the lovely Mary Washing-
ton College for Women in a more enduring way
in these days of the twentieth century. The lovely
student body, from many states of the Union and
from foreign lands stands today upon the threshold
of a new Era — at the beginning of a new ' 'New
Learning" — more fraught with consequences to
this life and the life to come than the "New
Learning" of Europe, in the sixteenth century,
held for the hardy, intrepid, faithful and courage-
ous women who are named in the old Patent of
1671, which embraced the Brompton yet to be.

A singular and striking similarity exists be-
tween the Brompton of the old world of centuries
ago and this Brompton of the Mary Washington
College for Women in Spotsylvania County,
Virginia.

In topographical aspect, here as there, on the
summit of the "Downs," commanding views of
the water; here as there, the proximity of a lovely
cemetery, final resting place of heroic dead who

gave their lives at the call of duty and in their
country's welfare; here as there, formerly a part of
Brompton, and in view close by, to the west, the
site of the ancient "Veteran's Hospital"; here as
there, each in Saint George's Parish, a great Insti-
tution, whether called school, or college, or uni-

versity, for the physical, mental, and moral edu-
cation of young women.

As the opportunities of these young women of
the twentieth century, and of their successors in
centuries yet to come, exceed the opportunities of
their precursors of 1671, so much the more will
their responsibilities be. It is an Iconoclast, indeed,
who doubts that the young women of the Mary
Washington College for Women will fail in any
of these responsibilities.

Charles Henry Niehaus was born in Cincinnati, Ohio, January 24, 1S55. m early
life he followed wood-carving, stone-cutting and marble-carving. He studied art at the
McMicken School of Design, Cincinnati, and at the Royal Academy at Munich. He also
studied in Athens and Greece.

He was a member of the National Sculpture Society, National Institute of Arts and
Letters, Academician of the National Academy of Design, Fellow of LAssociazione della
Artistica Internationale di Roma.

Mr. Niehaus died at Eagle Crest, Grantwood, New Jersey, June 19, 1935.

Mary Washington College feels itself to be in high favor for the great
privilege of having in its halls an elaborate exhibit of many of the works
of this master artist, through the gracious generosity of his daughter, Marie
Niehaus. The Battlefield feels itself peculiarly rich in the employment
of pictorial pages of a Hanneman monument, an intrepid John Paul Jones,
the grace of a Greek statue, a beloved Robert E. Lee, a noble Abraham
Lincoln. The book comes into a lasting value through the pictured art
that has entered into its content.

The sculptured works of Charles Henry Niehaus are in themselves a
monument to his genius but a yet greater monument, invisible, rises within
the heart of Mary Washington College — that of a recognition of the wealth
of culture which can become a part of ourselves through the law of associa-
tion with the rare workmanship of a famous artist of wide renown.
Through the mounting years, there will come a deeper appreciation, a
sustained gratitude, and a better understanding of art and culture for the
fact that Charles Henry Niehaus lived, and loved, and worked, and — gave.

Erected in Scott Circle, Washington, D.C., to the founder of the Homepathic School of Medicine,

by the Homepathists of America.

We Build On The Past

We have finished, yes — and yet it is we who are just beginning. Four years — long
if measured in days, short if cherished in memory — are ours — ours on which to build a
life — a life never to be free from the influence of those things here experienced.

The beauty in life will be heightened when we remember such as a winding road,
leading through an ever-changing forest; a silent white landscape, lying under shining
stars, upon which each has made her secret wishes and placed her hopes; an unforgettably
beautiful spring, rich in the color of newborn leaves and flowers, and full of strength for
those who perhaps have been discouraged by winter's forbidding bleakness.

The happiness in life will be enriched by the memories of living as one of a great family
— all striving through collective talents and personalities to create an harmonious and
pleasant atmosphere. Who among us shall fail to remember the anxiety of benefits,
perfected by hours of grueling but satisfying work; the short-lived but perfect moments
of ring dances; the pride and confidence felt in the first eventful donning of cap and gown?
There has been sadness too, but what other standard have we by which to measure final
happiness — for only out of failures can ultimate success grow and be realized; each is
essential and interdependent.

We have finished, yes — we began at the bottom of a long hill, and in climbing the hill
have thus climbed to a new height. Now, we shall be regarded with a new respect and
faced with a greater challenge. The respect we will merit, for we have proved ourselves
worthy of our alma mater, who, herself, has moved to ever higher standing during our
association with her. The challenge we must meet with boundless strength and courage,
for it is with us that the peace and security of a postwar world are to be trusted. These
fouryears, though infinitesimal in the span of time, have been momentous in the progress
of world affairs. We, who have quietly withdrawn ourselves from these years of conflict
in our preparation for future service, are the Class of Forty-six, who now emerge to take
our rightful place in shaping the pattern of tomorrow — in so doing shall we achieve our
new beginning.

A Moment's Pause

A moment's pause before we turn our faces toward the last lap of our
journey; a moment's reminiscence of the happy days that made up our
Junior year :

"The Waltz of the Flowers," our Junior show, with Liz Krebbs as
chairman, will remain one of the loveliest of the annual beauty contests.

We'll never forget our thrill of pride as Irene Taylor led the Tri-Unit
to victory in the first M.W.C. song contest. Many are the class meetings
and good old-fashioned get-togethers we have enjoyed with Irene at the
piano.

Nancy Hite, Jean Kirby, and Marian Withers were separated from us
as house presidents of Betty Lewis, Willard, and Cornell, but they remained
a part of us and shared in all the fun. A cheer for the others, too : Barbara
Buckham, House President of Mary Ball, Anna White, of Madison, and
Anna Brauer, of Custis. Three cheers for our able class president, Nelle
Dawes !

The Junior Class enjoyed a lovely tea given by the "Y," which Dr. and
Mrs. Insley attended. We offer our grateful thanks to Dr. Insley for his
never-failing help and cooperation as our sponsor.

The year drew to a close with the traditional Ring Dance, more mean-
ingful than ever before because this was our first year of participation in
its grace and beauty. The simple, dignified seal, set in a band of gold,
represents fond memories of three years at Mary Washington, and promises,
by the tiny "47" on the side, fulfillment of our hopes and dreams.

With a lingering look at the graceful columns of Mary Ball Hall, and
a fresh memory in our hearts of the friendliness which is a part of Tri-
Unit, we face with courage and expectation our final year of college.

Degrees ... It Won't Be Long!

With the world at peace again, we returned to our Alma Mater with
light hearts to begin our second eventful year at Mary Washington Col-
lege of the University of Virginia. At first, old friends were missed from
our Freshman class, but transfer students came along to take their places.
After five years of navy blue and khaki, it was good to have civi-clad
dates strolling about campus.

Our class colors, green and white, an innovation at M.W.C., and Sopho-
more Day brought our members together into a wholesome group which
bubbled over with enthusiasm and school spirit. Highlights of the year
included such memorable events as the Beauty Contest in which two of
our own girls — Sarah Armstrong and Marjorie Batty — placed first and
second respectively. We emerged from the Song Contest, which called
forth our utmost musical abilities, with two delightful class songs to carry
with us through the remainder of our stay here at the college on the hill.

A "Fantastic Takeoff" was experienced with the production of our
Benefit. Downright hard work and fun converted it into a harmonious
display of our varied talent at its best. Teas, dances, and Lyceum programs
added that certain touch which made our year finer and more complete.

Social life, however, was but a by-product of the main phase of our life
at Mary Washington. Major and minor fields of study were decided upon
and delved into with ardent interest and rigorous research.

Can we ever forget our housemothers — Mrs. Bushnell and Mrs. Love,
and their generous and loving guidance for which we are deeply appre-
ciative. Memories of our dorms, Virginia and Betty Lewis, are also deeply
implanted in our minds, and will long be remembered as one of the im-
portant features of our college lives.

Companionship and festivity coupled with mental stimulation — such
was our Sophomore year at M.W.C. of the U. of Va.

Freshman Class History

That first week we were convinced that of all
the people in the world, we were the most be-
wildered and forlorn. We couldn't find any place
to put our clothes or to set up our vast collection
of photographs; we couldn't remember our suite-
mates' names or when the next "Y," "AA," or
Freshman Orientation meeting was, and when
we found out from someone else we couldn't get
there. The ever-present saving grace was that our
suffering was widespread, and that there was al-
ways someone with whom to mourn the lost
advantages of a quiet, secure life at home !

When that reign of anguish subsided, we began
to look around us, and we found our first great
happiness at Mary Washington in the beauty of
the hill. By then, fall had turned our woods into
a flamboyantly beautiful scene splashed with
warm scarlets and yellows. The bright autumn
trees outlined against a clear blue horizon between
the pillars of Seacobeck made an unforgettable
memory for us. We began to make friends and,
with unceasing attention and help from Big Sis-
ters, faculty advisors and Student Government, to
understand and love our college, its aims and tra-
ditions. The election of class officers was our first
group movement, and it was then that we first
thought of ourselves not just as freshmen in col-
lege but as "The Class of 1949."

The trials of examination week past, Christ-
mas holiday brought us the glory of being mem-
bers of that immediately recognizable group on
the train and of having our names in the home-
town paper. When we came back to school,
eager and rested, we found to our unexpressible
delight that we had the distinction of being

"second quarter freshmen," and were exalted in
being able to direct a confused newcomer on her
way to Monroe. We discovered then and there,
with proper discretion, we could study and take
part in our clubs, too, and began to find life ex-
citing outside of the classroom and our dorm.
Forums, benefits, and dance week-ends all claimed
our attention and we began to feel quite collegiate
— enough so to be amused when we remembered
ourselves in that first week. We discovered, too,
that a sense of duty and responsibility toward
Mary Washington was active in us, and wondered
if we might not be beginning to grow up. So
the days passed quickly into weeks, and weeks
vanished in the quarter, as the snow and ice which
had made our woods a glittering, unreal fairy
domain vanished and the winds grew warm.
Spring came with more exams and, of course, the
rewarding vacation and we felt as though we'd
lived here all our lives, those things were so
easily accomplished.

The horse show, May Day, and freshmen bene-
fit, glorious customs all, made our third quarter
a spring to be remembered, happily, into old age.

We looked, then, at our hill, grown green and
lovely, at a stately white-columned building,
aged and warmed by the dark green ivy twisting
on its walls, at our friends' faces over the candle-
light at dinner and knew that an important part
of us, of our lives, was here — that something had
been shared, something given and something
taken, that the beauty, comradeship and knowl-
edge that we had found at Mary Washington
would be our cherished and imperishable trea-
sures always.

Hold high the torch!

You did not light its glow —

'Twas given you by other hands, you know.

'Tis yours to keep it burning bright,

Yours to pass on when you no more need light;

For there are other feet that we must guide,

And other forms go marching by our side;

Their eyes are watching every smile and tear

And efforts which we think are not worthwhile,

Are sometimes just the very helps they need,

Actions to which their souls would give most heed;

So that in turn they'll hold it high

And say, "I ivatched someone else carry it this way."
If brighter paths should beckon you to choose,
Would your small gain compare with all you'd lose?
Hold high the torch!
You did not light its glow —
'Twas given you by other hands, you know.
I think it started doivn its pathway bright,
The day the Maker said: "Let there be light."
And, He, once said, who hung on Calvary's Tree —
"Ye are the light of the world . . . Qo! . . . Shine — for
me."

It is we who bring "Y" to the freshmen — watching them organize and build on that which we give
is only part of the reward given us in return — for in building they will achieve and so pass to others
the ideals of womanhood realized in those who have gone before.

Fresh

/ommission

Another year — another Commission — and so
much excellent material for forming an organiza-
tion to further the purpose of "Y" on the Hill.

After having taken several weeks to "get ac-
quainted" the Commission elected its officers and
began discussing plans for the annual doll show.
And what a show ! With Thanksgiving holidays
interrupting the initial Doll Show plans, and
exam week coming up soon after, everything was
very rushed and exciting up to the last minute. It
was hard for the judges to come to a decision, but
Betty Jean Curry's group triumphed by carrying
off the high honors of the evening with the cud-
dliest, most playable doll.

This was just one of the activities we enjoyed
during the year. We shall never forget the social
gatherings — and our hostessing at the "Y" teas.

Our main purpose has been to help the new stu-

dents become acquainted with the various activi-
ties of "Y" and to encourage their interest and
participation in "Y" program. We have worked
during 1945-46 with this as our goal and have
found ourselves richer because of the friendships
we have made and memories we have shared.

of dramatic art, are elected. The various phases
of work which determine eligibility for election
include acting, playwriting, technical work, radio
work, business managing, producing and directing.

New members are pledged after each major
college production. Analysis of work on all pro-
ductions major or minor determines consideration
for candidacy.

This year, Alpha Psi Omega produced the well-
known play by Alberto Casella, Death Takes A
Holiday, adapted for the American stage by
Walter Ferris. The members of Alpha Psi Omega

had a part in all dramatic productions on the cam-
pus during the year, helping carry out their aim
of furthering dramatic activities here at the college.

ing organization. The members in the Classes of
1944 and 1945 have shown us well that service
and recognition of this kind go hand in hand.

We have tried to continue their activities and
develop new projects which we think might in-
crease in some way the social, intellectual, and
spiritual growth of our fellow students. Con-
ducting the freshman orientation program on
campus customs and traditions, publishing the
second edition of the Student Directory, present-
ing a series of lectures by Dr. Elizabeth W. Baker
on Parliamentary procedures, and career confer-
ences with alumni and students, have been our
contributions to college life this year.

As we look to graduation, we also look to our
future members. Chosen on the basis of scholar-
ship, leadership, personality, and service to the
school, the new members will bring to Cap and
Gown new ideas and new plans. We hope that,
in return, they will gain new abilities and new joy
in living.

Once again Mary Washington girls, in a spirit

Chest. Though we did not soar to the goal our
expectations had set, we gathered a substantial
sum to be distributed to various local, national,
and international organizations, such as the World
Student Service Fund, Tuberculosis Association,

Thanksgiving White Fund, Community Fund,
and British Refugee Children's Fund. Our main
interest was in the students all over the world
who so urgently need our help. We are proud to
know that our small contributions will aid them
to continue their education. We hope next year
our challenge will be met more wholeheartedly.

International Relations Club

In this year just past, the words International
Relations have come to mean more to us than
ever before. During the war our activities were
necessarily curtailed, and we were kept quite busy
just keeping ourselves informed on the current
situation. But now that long-dreamed-of "Post-
war World" has arrived, and through our club
we have been able to better understand what the
late Wendell Willkie meant by his term "One
World." The world has indeed shrunk and we
must learn to live peaceably in it.

The International Relations Club, under the
capable leadership of its president, Katherine
Knight, has added its bit in fostering better re-
lationships and in educating the entire student
body by sponsoring guest speakers. The most out-
standing event of the year was our trip to Wash-
ington where we visited both the Senate and
House of Representatives, as well as the Supreme
Court.

Yes, on looking back in review, all the mem-
bers might well be proud to say "I belonged" in
this year which will go down in history as the
beginning of the Atomic Age.

"On Stage Everybody!" That's a familiar
call to the members of Mary Washington Players,
one of the most active and largest clubs on the
Hill. Actresses, stage hands, make-up artists,
business and publicity girls, lighting technicians,
costume mistresses, directors — all have their
place in the players. Every girl who senses the
glamor of the stage participates in all of the dra-
matic activities on campus. Apprentices and mas-
ter members alike have equal opportunity in the
productions sponsored by the players, and this fall
the college witnessed a series of one-act plays
acted by new members and directed by experi-
enced players. The two major productions of this
group proved to be outstanding successes, and
once more the players rang down the curtain on
a profitable year.

ary achievements of both national and inter-
national importance. Not only are these English
majors and minors of junior and senior rank in-
terested in the wisdom of the ages, but they are
equally interested in discovering what the women

of today are doing to further this quest.

Modern Portias gather together for the purpose
of becoming acquainted with and appreciating
the great works of literature. Meetings resound-
ing with the spirit of literary criticism and mod-
ern ideas result in a mingling of the old with the
new, as we strive toward the art of graceful
living.

The cultivation of good speech in the postwar
world is one of the many aims which the society
is endeavoring to meet by encouraging debates,
forums, speech contests, and radio work. Con-
sequently, Pi Sigma Kappa finds correct speaking
ability conducive to a well-rounded and pro-
ductive personality. This club offers each indi-
vidual member an opportunity to improve her
speech and to instruct others in the art of correct
speech, interesting content, and good presentation.
This, we believe, will make for a better under-
standing between individuals, groups, and nations

as it progresses in its fourth year. Memories of
"Our Theme" and the fun had by its fourteen
members on many trips to nearby places such as
Quantico and Washington will fondly be remem-
bered.

Under the able direction of Mr. Ronald

Faulkner, the orchestra has gained much
prominence on campus as well as in surrounding
localities.

The sweet strain of a sentimental song and the
catchy rhythm of Boogie- Woogie both enhance
the musical ability of its group and add to the
appreciation of its listeners.

Mary Washington College Band

The M. W. C. Band, under the able direction
of Mr. Ronald Faulkner, experienced a most suc-
cessful season. The highlights of the year include
the band benefit, the "Winter Wonderland Dance"
which we will remember as one of the most pic-
turesque events of the winter months.

There was also a most enjoyable trip to Wash-
ington where the band played for the All-Star
football game, sponsored by the Touchdown

Club. Here the band displayed its precision, abil-
ity, fitness, and splendor in the parade at Griffith
Stadium.

On the campus the band provided music for
a local high school football game and chapel pro-
grams.

The band has had a most satisfactory year
and is anticipating greater achievements in the
future.

Glee Club

The Glee Club, advanced choral organization
of Mary Washington College, is composed of 75
members, who are chosen for their singing abil-
ity, personality, and musical interest.

In addition to the enjoyment and cultural value
to the members themselves, the Glee Club con-
tributes to many occasions on the Hill through
solo and small ensemble work, and performances
by the entire group.

One of the outstanding concerts of the year is
the annual Christmas Carol Program which

always draws a large audience of students, town
people, and out-of-town visitors.

In the spring, a formal concert is given, usually
on a Convocation evening.

The services of the Glee Club are not limited to
the campus, for this group of singers responds to
requests for musical programs from local and
state organizations, churches, and radio per-
formances.

The director is Miss Marion Chauncey and the
accompanist is Miss Irene Taylor.

"Fight, fight, fight, for the blue and white," —
A new pep song, a new year and a new opportunity
for A. A. to present a recreational program of athletics to
offset and enhance the strain of a collegiate life !

The Freshmen were welcomed with a playday and tea,
then introduced to M. W. C. standards of tennis, hockey,
swimming, riding. That memorable bus ride to Rich-
mond for the Eastern Virginia Field Hockey Tournament
and Sally Heritage making the Eastern team were high-
lights of Fall Quarter. We broke tradition and put on
"Sports Go Bang," the first benefit ever to be presented in
daylight and out-of-doors. The thrill the spectators knew
was surpassed only by the keen excitement of the partici-
pants as the sports of the century passed in review.

When the winter rain and snows came, we took refuge
in the gym and interest turned to volleyball and intra-
mural basketball. Many braved the elements of a blustery
Saturday night for one of those anything-may-happen
cabin parties.

Spring brought a surge of activity, and ruction let
loose on Devil-Goat Day when both teams fought for
the glory and honor of their colors Posture week re-
sulted in the selection of the posture queen, and the sea-
son ended with the Spring Horse Show and the colorful
pageantry of May Day.

A successful year was climaxed with the presentation
of athletic achievement awards at the annual banquet.

'It looked extremely rocky for the 'Senior' nine that day;
The score stood two to four, with but one inning left to play.
So, when 'MacDonald' died at second, and 'Goodloe' did the same,
A pallor wreathed the features of the patrons of the game.

'Then from the gladdened multitude went up a joyous yell —
It rumbled in the mountaintops, it rattled in the dell;
It struck upon the hillside and rebounded on the flat;
For 'Toni,' mighty 'Toni,' was advancing to the bat."

Apologies to the Author

At a strenuous moment it appears that the "B^eds" are in favor.

The day is fair,

the players are in readiness,

and the same is about to be sin.

In any Gymkhana or May Horse Show the equitation classes and the
Hunter's Hack build for the climax of the coveted "Knock-down and
Out" jumping class. . . .

Remember Eley . . . heels down, body forward, and drop his head.

Not only does the Cavalry put on exhibition
drills — both mounted and on foot — but, in addi-
tion, overnight rides and hikes are a specialty. The
main yearly event is the ten-day summer pack-
trip into the Blue Ridge Mountains. Oh, that
mountain air ! That food ! The bugs and the rain !

The Cavalry Troop, organized during the war

for emergency, is continuing on in peace as a spe-
cial service organization. As a project it has taken
over the salvage of scrap paper on the campus,
giving the proceeds to the Red Cross, and will-
ingly performs any duty requested of a military
group such as guard duty on special occasions.

The Cavalry represents a disciplined group of
horsemen who, at either work or play, never lose
that fine spirit of sportsmanship or the comradely
manner in which they work together.

Throughout the school year, M. W. C. girls may be
seen riding in the ring at Oak Hill Stables, or cantering
along woodland trails, or participating in one of the
four horse shows held every year. In the fall, new jocks
are initiated to riding via the experienced backs of Joe,
Prospect, or Gladsom, horses whose unfailing good
manners and gentle dispositions have long served to
build up confidence and skill in beginners. In November,
the Junior Riding Club, which consists of Fredericksburg
youngsters, conducts a show in which the excellent horse-
manship of these junior riders vies with that of the ad-
vanced college girls while hopeful parents and excited
classmates hang on the ring fence.

Winter brings icy weather, which is soon forgotten in>
riding along a frozen ridge under snow laden evergreens
while the waters of Hazel Run, bubbling and falling
over rocks, wind through a ravine far below. Winter
also brings fox-hunting, a sport loved by every rider -who
has ever followed the hounds on the devious and elusive
trail of the fox. After a day's hunting, jocks, exhilarated
by a long run with plenty of fences, logs, and ditches to
add to the general excitement, hack their mounts back to
the stables to dismount on numb feet and trek back to
college where they discuss every detail of the hunt over
a welcome dinner.

Gradually, drizzling rains, budding trees, and the

earthy smell of recently plowed land, announce the ar-
rival of spring. In early April, the Oak Hill Hunt holds
its annual Hunter Trials, at Snowden Farm, in which
college girls compete over a difficult hunter course set
up in a green field enclosed by glistening white fences.
During the spring, every class takes at least one breakfast
ride, at sunrise, over trails lined with dogwood trees in
bloom and returns to a hearty breakfast at the clubhouse.
In May, jocks begin diligently to practice figure eights,
hacking, and jumping, in anticipation of the biggest
equestrian event of the year, the Spring Horse Show. On
rainy days, they sprawl around an open fire in the club-
house, while Mr. Walther lectures on the conformation
of the horse or some other phase of the fascinating sub-
ject about which there is always so much to learn. When
the big day arrives, jocks spring out of bed at dawn to
see if the day will be a clear one before going out to braid
manes and tails on horses already glistening from a week's
rest and constant brushing and currying. Finally, the
classes, which are judged by some of the most eminent
horsemen in the United States, begin, and good horse-
manship is rewarded by blue, red, yellow, and white
ribbons, while the champion rider is awarded a silver
cup. Thus, another year's work and fun is brought to a
climax and a close.

Another year just whirled by and with it a big-
ger and better Terrapin Club. The mermaids
numbered about thirty with Love Wohnus, as the
able president, Dorothy Marvin, the vice-presi-
dent, and Ann Tilton, the secretary-treasurer.
Initiation went off with a bang and then all of the
girls settled down to some real hard work. Work
is what we called it, but really it was fun for all
because it meant practicing up for the Exhibition,
Aquacade, and last but not least the Southern and

National Telegraphies. Miss Leonard, the club's
sponsor, did a grand job with her timely sug-
gestions and leadership, so big things were defi-
nitely expected when we swam off those Tele-
graphics. Be sure to watch for glad tidings on the
performance of all these Neptune lassies who
swim with such grace and ease and with the
speed of the best of fishes in the years to come,
because they won't let you down!

Donald Dickson . . . song's to remember.

Ejgoletto . . . a theme and a presentation that is for all time in
the world of opera.

At Twilight Time

Heavenly shades of night are falling —

It's twilight time.

Out of the mist your voice is calling —

It's twilight time.

When purple colored curtains mark the end of day

I hear you, dear — at twilight time.

Deepening shadows gather splendor

As day is done.

Fingers of night will soon surrender

A setting sun.

I count the moments, darling, till you re here ivith me,

Together at last — at twilight time.

The

Kid

Party

Mrs. Weiss, Mr. Quenther, and JAr. Qraves
select both a blonde (Jo Wilson) and a brunette
(Jane Eanes) to settle the proverbial question.

Diz and Sally appear to be the "Scrappy" type.

Our trio (Betty, Lois, and Jane) provides a little
music to relieve the suspense at the Kid Party.

A dramatic moment in "Death Takes A Holiday " staged off stage solely for a pictorial purpose.

On stage. A tense moment when the decision must be made betiueen a choice of Life and Death

Kirby gives a last minute hint for Cutie's grooming . . . Marian approves the position of Nancy's floivers
. . . reflection alone gives assurance to Anna.

The test of a receiving line is a pleasant smile, a warm hand clasp and a genial ivelcome done with nice
formality. The Student Council line interprets the definition with finesse.

Reading from left to right: Barbara Hansen, Mary Wilson Sheffield, Toni Campbell, Barbara Buckham.
Ginny Oquist, Anna White, and Bonnie Gallimore.

After the ball is over this group goes into a huddle and is manifestly interested in
Ginny 's impersonation of an anecdote on a professor. Hush! Hush! — It must not go in
print ! It would only make for undue publicity !

The Student Government Reception

The Cotillion Club invites the Qerman Club to an informal dance in the big gym for a few gay hours—
and, believe it or not, there were plenty of men!

An outstanding date on the Bond Rally calendar — November i, 1945. The Coast Quard proved match-
less salesmen.

Alumnae

These two Alumnae of the Mary Washington
College National Association are high-up officials
who arrived on the campus one day in spring —
Mrs. Charles S. Payne, President, and Miss Betty
Dupre, Publicity Chairman — to plan for the
Homecoming on the week-end of April sixth and
seventh. (They look the part of stylists on pa-
rade!) The only reason the other officials in the
upper bracket are not in the picture is solely be-
cause they did not come at that same time when
the official photographer was scurrying round
about for the "best shots" for the 1946 Battle-
field.

That was a great heart-warming week-end for
Mary Washington College when her daughters
came trooping back; the dogwoods seemed to be
a-bloom with fresh abandonment, gala of mood,
in their honor. It will be yet a greater day when
this rank and file of a by-gone day come trooping
back again, and yet again.

The Seniors "Pull Doivn the Shades" successfully.

'The Waltz of Flowers" . . . Nell, president, framed attractively. . . . Sarah and Marjorie, beauty ivinners.
The judges — good to look. at. . . . Heads you win! . . . The orchestra, always a favorite.

'Fantastic Take-off" . . . Pat and Posey dream a dream for the benefit of the Sophomore class.

Y.W. had "Heartbeats" and so did the audience.

sually, one makes addresses of farewell
to graduates, but we wish to extend greetings ... to all the
girls of Mary Washington, 1946. In all probability, we
knew you before you knew us. Now that school days are
ended and you may scatter to the far corners, we don't want
to lose track of our friendship. Remember always that
Garfinckel's remembers you. We have watched, with immense
pride, as you were being graduated from our Infants' Shop,
to the Girls' Shop . . . and thence to the 'Teen, Debutante and
Misses' Shops. We've loved watching you grow (in ways
that we think are all good habits), and so we wish you to
return again and again where we shall always be happy
to see you.
