GREETING  FROM  THE  PRESIDENT 


GREETING  FROM  THE  PRESIDENT  OF  THE  COLLEGE 


DR.  RALPH  WALDO  LLOYD 

President  of  Maryville  College 

This  is  written  at  the  opening  of  the  125th  year  in  the  history 
of  Maryville  College.  The  rapid  turning  of  events  in  the  world  dur- 
ing these  days  of  war  makes  it  impossible  to  predict  what  special  cir- 
cumstances may  surround  life  on  this  campus  even  a  few  months 
hence.  But  I  think  we  may  reasonably  expect  to  have  the  privilege 
of  welcoming  several  hundred  college  students  and  several  hundred 
members  of  the  Army  Air  Forces  College  Training  Detachment  now 
assigned  here. 

I  am  happy  to  extend  an  official  greeting  to  all  who  come  here 
to  live  and  work  on  the  Maryville  campus  as  either  civilian  or  soldier 
students.  This  little  book  published  by  students  intends  to  give  some 
introductory  and  ready  reference  information  for  all.  The  College 
officers  stand  ready  to  give  information  daily  throughout  the  year; 
And  the  officers  and  faculty  welcome  an  opportuity  to  become  ac- 
quainted with  the  individuals  who  are  enrolled  in  or  assigned  to  this 
institution. 

RALPH  WALDO  LLOYD 
President  of  Maryville  College 


POLICIES         HISTORY 


POLICIES 

Basic  to  an  understanding  of  Maryville  College  is  a  knowledge 
of  its  three  distinctive  and  historic  policies. 

HIGH  SCHOLORSHIP  STANDARDS 

Maryville  College  is  officially  accredited  by  the  national,  regional, 
and  state  accrediting  bodies;  the  Association  of  American  Univer- 
sities, the  Southern  Association  of  Colleges  and  Secondary  Schools, 
and  the  State  of  Tennessee  Department  of  Education.  Among  other 
organizations  by  which  it  is  approved  or  of  which  it  is  a  member  are 
the  National  Association  of  Schools  of  Music,  the  American  Medical 
Association,  the  American  Council  on  Education,  the  Association  of 
American  Colleges,  and  the  American  Association  of  University 
Women. 

LOW  EXPENSE  RATES  TO  STUDENTS 

In  order  to  enable  students  of  limited  means  as  well  as  those  of 
abundant  means  to  secure  a  college  education,  Maryville  maintains 
a  low  rate  of  expense  and  a  self-help  program.  Students  living  in 
dormitories  pay  about  $350  a  year;  those  who  live  in  their  own  homes 
in  the  community  pay  approximately  $160.  About  two-thirds  of  the 
students  earn  part  of  their  expenses  through  the  self-help  program, 
which  includes  remunerative  employment,  loans,  and  a  few  designated 
scholarship  grants.     Seldom  can  one  meet  all  expenses  in  this  way. 

POSITIVE  CHRISTIAN  EMPHASIS  AND  PROGRAM 
Maryville  College  is  Christian,  although  not  sectarian,  in  its 
purposes,  program,  and  teaching.  Throughout  its  history  it  has  been 
connected  organically  with  the  Presbyterian  Church  in  the  U.  S.  A. 
It  seeks  to  fulfill  its  responsibility  through  Christian  faculty  and  staff, 
required  courses  in  religion,  required  attendance  at  daily  chapel  and  at 
Sunday  church  services,  the  "February  Meetings",  the  "Maryville 
College  Parish"  program,  and  active  Christian  Associations. 

HISTORY 

Founded  in  1819  by  Rev.  Isaac  Anderson,  D.D.,  as  a  theological  sem- 
inary, Maryville  College  is  one  of  the  fifty  oldest  among  the  seventeen 
hundred  institutions  of  higher  education  in  the  United  States  and  one 
of  the  fifteen  oldest  in  the  South.  The  original  site  of  the  college  is 
now  occupied  by  the  New  Providence  Presbyterian  Church.  In  1861 
the  Civil  War  forced  the  college  to  close. 

In  1866  Prof.  T.  J.  Lamar  of  the  pre-war  faculty  became  the 
second  founder.  A  new  site  was  purchased,  and  within  a  few  years 
Anderson,  Memorial,  and  Baldwin  Halls  were  built.  By  1867  women 
students  were  enrolled,  and  in  1875  Maryville  conferred  what  was 
probably  the  first  B.  A.  degree  received  by  a  woman  in  Tennessee. 
Since  1930  Rev.  R.  W.  Lloyd,  D.  D.,  has  been  president. 


HISTORY         CAMPUS         ALMA    MATER 


From  13  students  in  1866  and  83  students  of  college  grade  in  1901, 
the  enrollment  had  grown  to  813  in  1940-41.  The  armed  forces  and 
war  industries  have  now,  at  the  end  of  1942-43,  cut  the  number  to  510. 
Thirty-seven  states  and  four  foreign  countries  are  represented.  The 
faculty  and  staff  number  about  75. 

CAMPUS 

Maryville's  beautiful  320-acre  campus  includes  the  college  woods 
with  its  picnic  ground  and  natural  amphitheatre,  the  college  farm, 
and  a  nine-hole  golf  course.  A  map  of  the  central  area,  showing  17 
of  the  22  buildings  on  the  campus,  will  be  found  on  the  inside  back 
cover  page  of  the  Handbook. 

From  the  campus  can  be  seen  the  distant  Cumberland  mountains 
on  the  west  and  the  Chilhowees  and  Great  Smokies  on  the  east.  The 
Great  Smoky  Mountains  National  Park  is  only  20  miles  away.  Knox- 
ville  is  16  miles  northwest.  The  city  of  Maryville,  settled  about  1785, 
and  its  sister  city  Alcoa,  where  the  Aluminum  Company  of  America 
operates  one  of  the  largest  aluminum  plants  in  the  world,  with  their 
surburban  area,  now  have  a  population  of  about  25,000.  Maryville's 
principal  churches  and  its  attractive  business  district  are  within  con- 
venient walking  distance  of  the  campus. 

ALMA  MATER 

Where  Chilhowee's  lofty  mountains 

Pierce  the  southern  blue 
Proudly  stands  our  Alma  Mater, 

Noble,  grand,  and  true. 

As  thy  hilltop  crowned  with  cedars 

Ever  green  appears; 
So  thy  memory  fresh  shall  linger 

Through  life's  smiles  and  tears. 

Lift  the  chorus,  wake  the  echoes, 

Make  the  welkin  ring! 
Hail  the  queen  of  all  the  highland! 

Loud  her  praises  sing. 

Chorus 

Orange,  garnet,  float  forever, 

Ensign  of  our  hill! 
Hail  to  thee,  our  Alma  Mater! 

Hail  to  Maryville.

PROGRAM 

The  Army  Air  Forces  College  Training  (Pref light)  Program  was 
established  at  Maryville  College  on  March  1,  1943,  with  the  intent 
of  giving  Army  Air  Force  candidates  a  better  background  for  future 
work.  Colleges  were  chosen  because  they  were  the  best  prepared 
institutions  to  handle  such  a  program. 

The  curriculum  conducted  by  the  Maryville  faculty  includes 
physics,  mathematics,  English,  history,  geography,  Civil  Air  Regula- 
tions, and  Medical  Aid.  The  college  also  provides,  on  a  plan  furnished 
by  the  Air  Corps,  six  hours  a  week  of  calisthenics  and  games,  includ- 
ing in  season  volleyball,  softball,  tennis,  swimming,  basketball,  and 
perhaps  wrestling.  There  can  be  no  football,  touch  football,  soccer, 
or  lacrosse. 

The  army  has  charge  of  administrative  details  and  drill  activity. 
During  the  latter  part  of  the  training  period,  which  lasts  approxi- 
mately five  months  for  most  of  the  men,  some  flying  instruction  is 
given  by  the  government  at  the  local  airport. 

CIVILIAN  RELATIONS 

The  training  detachment  is  under  strict  army  discipline  at  all 
times.  The  men  march  in  formation  to  all  meals,  classes,  and  other 
appointments,  spend  the  evenings  in  supervised  study,  go  to  bed  early 
and  get  up  early.  Only  in  their  few  off  hours  (week-ends  and  perhaps 
one  night)  can  they  associate  with  the  civilian  students.  During  his 
free  time,  the  aviation  student  may  come  and  go  as  he  sees  fit,  exicept 
to  off-limits  places,  as  long  as  he  behaves  as  a  gentleman  and  a  soldier. 
The  members  of  the  college  training  detachment  are  expected  by  their 
officers  to  respect  the  traditions  and  regulations  of  Maryville  College. 

Some  regulations  the  soldiers  follow  require  civilian  cooperation. 
At  retreat  or  at  any  other  time  a  military  force  is  honoring  the  flag, 
the  civilians  in  the  vicinity  should  stop  and  stand  at  attention  until 
the  completion  of  the  ceremony. 

RECREATION 

Aircrew  students  may  belong  to  the  social  societies  and  the  Y.  M. 
C.  A.  They  are  welcome  at  the  "Y"  Sunday  afternoon  services.  They 
may  use  the  college  library  and  attend  the  college  entertainments 
when  their  program  permits.  Last  year  a  dance  was  held  in  the 
armory  for  the  detachment  and  a  special  show  run  in  the  local  theatre. 
The  men  have  organized  several  variety  shows  and  a  military  band. 
Musical  trainees  have  given  impromptu  concerts  in  the  barracks.  The 
"Y"  is  planning  further  entertainment.

HISTORY 

The  Student  Council  was  organized  in  1923  to  represent  student 
opinion  and  work  with  the  faculty  in  promoting  desirable  activities 
and  relationships.  The  Constitution  of  the  Student  Council  then 
drawn  up  was  repeatedly  revised  through  the  years  as  opportunities 
arose  for  increased  usefulness  and  broader  responsibilities  for  the 
Council.  The  present  Constitution  of  the  Student  Body  was  formu- 
lated during  1941-1942  and  adopted  by  the  Executive  Council  of  the 
Faculty  and  by  the  Student  Body  in  April,  1942.  One  amendment 
has  since  been  added.

CONSTITUTION  11 


CONSTITUTION  OF  THE  STUDENT  EODY  OF 
MARYVILLE  COLLEGE 

PREAMBLE 

Whereas,  the  Student  Council  of  Maryville  College  has  functioned 
continuously  since  its  organization  in  1923,  under  a  constitution  which 
has  been  amended  from  time  to  time,  and  whereas,  the  time  now  seems 
opportune  for  a  general  revision  of  the  existing  Constitution  of  the 
Student  Council,  and  for  an  enlargement  of  the  designated  functions 
of  such  a  student  organization  for  the  purpose  of  providing  greater 
understanding  and  cooperation  throughout  all  of  the  College  life  and 
activities,  now  therefore, 

We,  the  Students  of  Maryville  College  do  hereby  repeal  the  pre- 
sent Constitution  of  the  Student  Council  and  do  adopt  in  its  place  this

mittees at  designated  times,  and  shall  pass  on  to  its  committees  such 
suggestions  and  requests  as  it  may  deem  wise. 

c.  The  Council  as  a  group,  and  its  members  as  individuals,  shall 
be  responsible  for  the  leadership  of  student  opinion,  and  shall  seek 
always  to  develop  within  the  Student  Body  a  spirit  of  self-discipline

YOUNG  WOMEN'S  CHRISTIAN  ASSOCIATION 

PRESIDENT'S  WELCOME 


Hello,  New  Girls ! 

What  a  unique  group  of  girls  you  are  to  be  planning  on  entering 
college  in  1943!     Have  you  ever  stopped  to  think  of  all  the  young 
men  and  women  who  have  given  up  such  plans,  either  necessarily  or 
by  choice?     Many  of  the  young  women  have   chosen  to   enter   into 
women's    military    organizations,    early    mar- 
riage, or  war  jobs.     You  have  chosen  to  enter 
college   to    prepare   in   the   way   open   to   you 
for  whatever  may  come.     You   are  wise,  for 
those  of  us  who  are  privileged  to  do  so,  may 
best  serve  our  country  by  continuing  our  edu- 
cation.     War    is    only    a    temporary    activity. 
The  time  is  coming  when  we  will  be  able  to 
serve  our  country  in  ways  for  which  we  are 
now  preparing. 

You  are  a  fortunate  group  of  girls,  also, 
for  you  have  chosen  to  come  to  Maryville  for 
your  college  years.  The  spirit  at  Maryville  is 
one  of  warm  Christian  fellowship  and  inter- 
est. On  our  campus  the  YWCA  is  an  organ- 
ization which  embodies  this  spirit  for  the  girls. 
The  purpose  of  YW  is  to  serve  all  Maryville 
girls,  and  there  is  a  place  for  you.  But,  "Y," 
like  all  worthwhile  activities,  is  able  to  give 
Muriel  Geisler  to  you  only  as  much  as  you  are  willing  to  give 
President,  YWCA      to  it  through  your  interest  and  participation. 

"Y's"  motto  this  year  is  a  conditional  one, 
"If  thou  wouldst  enter  into  life."  We  invite  you  to  find  your  place 
in  "Y"  and  to  seek  with  us  through  recreational  activities,  service, 
and  worship,  those  qualities  which  we  will  need  to  enter  into  life — 
the  full  and  beautiful  Christian  life. 


Sincerely,

ACTIVITY 

Christian  Service.  Maryville's  Y.W.C.A.  has  always  endeavored 
to  help  girls  find  real  satisfaction  in  well-balanced  Christian  living. 
Keeping  this  aim  ever  in  view,  Y.W.  has  organized  and  conducts 
such  groups  as  Nu  Gamma  Sigma,  Pi  Gamma  Sigma,  the  Big  Sister 
movement,  and  the  International  Relations  Club.  The  "Y"  also  par- 
ticipates in  the  East  Tennessee  Intercollegiate  Christian  Council. 

Worship  Services.  The  Sunday  afternoon  worship  services  are 
planned  to  give  inspiration  and  help.  Problems  of  vital  interest  to  all 
college  girls  are  presented — personal,  social,  and  international  prob- 
lems. Both  new  and  old  girls  have  opportunity  to  assist  in  some  part 
of  these  services,  and  are  greatly  benefitted  by  the  actual  partici- 
pation. 


20 


Y.W.C.A. 


Community  Service  and  Recreation.  Besides  the  joint  activ- 
ities with  the  Y.M.C.A.  the  program  of  the  Y.  W.  includes  such 
activities  as  the  production  of  the  May  Day  pageant,  semi-annual 
tennis  tournaments,  social  service  work  in  the  mission  chapels  and 
in  the  orphanage,  and  various  social  activities  for  Y.  W.  members. 
The  Y.  W.  rooms  in  Thaw  Hall  are  especially  well  adapted  and 
equipped  for  group  events  or  individual  relaxation  and  enjoyment. 
All  members  are  invited  to  use  the  "Y"  rooms,  which  are  always 
open  throughout  the  day. 

You  will  find  that  the  members  of  the  "Y"  cabinet,  the  Nu 
Gamma  and  Pi  Gamma  leaders,  and  old  members  of  the  "Y"  are 
willing  to  help  in  every  way  possible.  Give  Y.  W.  a  chance  to  be 
your  friend  and  guide,  and  join  the  old  members  as  they  follow  the 
year's  motto,  "If  thou  wouldst  enter  into  life."

NU  GAMMA  CHAIRMAN'S  WELCOME 


Hello,   New  Girls! 

This  letter  carries  a  hearty  welcome  to  some  of  the  luckiest  girls 

anywhere.     Hearty  because  we  are  wanting  to  see  and  know  you,  and 

luckiest  because  you  are  coming  to  Maryville.     I  believe  that  happy 

hours  and  associations  are  awaiting  you  just  as  new  friendships  are 

in  store  for  us  when  you  get  here. 

If  you  have  already  heard  from  your  Nu 
Gamma  leader,  she  will  have  given  you  ideas 
and  suggestions  as  well  as  welcomed  you.  You 
and  the  rest  of  the  girls  in  your  group  will 
have  grand  times  together — in  the  college  woods 
or  over  the  fudge  pan  in  the  kitchen — as  you 
discuss  and  ask  all  the  questions  that  are  filling 
your  mind. 

All  of  us  are  looking  forward  to  a  grand 
year  with  you — a  year  of  new  friendships,  op- 
portunities, and  responsibilities,  of  clean  fun 
and  hard  work.  So  pack  your  duds  and  come 
on;  we'll  be  just  as  glad  to  see  you  as  you  will

THE  PRESIDENT'S  WELCOME 


Hello  New  Fellows: 

The  Y.M.C.A.  of  Maryville  College  is  happy  to  welcome  you  and 
to  invite  you  into  the  fellowship  of  our  group.     Be  assured  that  you 
are  entering  a  college  home  which  will  become  more  meaningful  to

Y.M.C.A.  you  will  have  a  part  in  our  program 
which  includes  Sunday  worship  services,  moun- 
tain  hikes,   a  watermelon   pow  wow,   a   spring 
banquet,  and  other  activities. 

Due  to  the  presence  of  the  Army  pre-cadets 
there  will  be  activities  which  will  be  something 
new  for  the  "Y."  There  is  a  place  in  "Y"  for 
you;  therefore,  we  extend  our  invitation — find

Theodore  Roosevelt,  "The  only  homage  that  is 
worthwhile  is  the  homage  of  deeds,"  We  hope 
you  will  have  a  share  in  helping  us  realize  this  motto.

ACTIVITY 

The  Maryville  College  Y.M.C.A.,  a  pioneer  college  "Y",  has  for 
sixty-six  years  offered  a  Christ-centered  program  for  the  full  phys- 
ical, mental,  and  social  development  of  Maryville  men. 

College  Service.  The  service  of  the  "Y"  begins  when  a  student 
enrolls.  An  upperclassman  assumes  special  responsibility  for  writing 
to  him  during  the  summer  and  introducing  him  to  the  campus  and 
old  students  when  he  arrives  on  the  Hill.  A  Frosh  Fellowship  Club 
helps  new  men  get  acquainted  and  adjusted.  The  program  continues 
with  a  watermelon  pow  wow  and  a  mountain  hike  in  the  fall  and  the 
annual  banquet  in  the  spring.  The  original  sponsor  of  interclass 
athletics,  the  "Y"  now  helps  administer  the  intramural  program. 
Other  services  are  performed  for  civilian  and  army  men  from  time 
to  time;  this  spring  copies  of  Today  have  been  distributed  in  Carnegie 
and  Bartlett  each  month. 


24 Y.M.C.A.         JOINT  ACTIVITIES 

Community  Service.  The  "Y"  provides  leadership  for  the  pro- 
gram of  the  local  cub  pack  and  a  scout  troop  it  started. 

Worship.  The  central  feature  of  the  program  is  the  Sunday 
afternoon  meeting;  through  guest  speakers,  special  music,  or  student 
discussion  the  attempt  is  made  to  reach  the  various  problems  of  col- 
lege men  with  the  vital  resources  of  religion. 

JOINT  ACTIVITIES 

Devotional.  Joint  devotional  meetings  are  conducted  coopera- 
tively by  the  "Y's"  several  times  each  year.  Three  days  each  spring 
the  cabinets  hold  Retreat  in  the  mountains  for  planning  and  devo- 
tionals. 

Cultural.  The  International  Relations  Club,  to  help  students 
think  intelligently  about  world  affairs,  presents  well-informed  speak- 
ers, informal  discussion  groups,  and  a  current  events  class.  The 
Artist  Series,  originally  an  activity  of  the  YMCA,  is  now  managed 
by  a  faculty  committee  assisted  by  the  "Y's." 

Recreational.  Barnwarming,  largely  staged  by  the  YWCA,  is 
the  gala  affair  that  everyone  attends  on  Thanksgiving  evening  in  the 
Alumni  Gymnasium.     The  proceeds  help  meet  some  world  need. 

Service.  The  Chatterbox  is  a  social  center  and  a  convenient 
place  to  buy  food,  refreshments,  and  necessities.  New  students  as 
they  arrive  on  the  campus  are  directed  and  aided  by  "Y"  representa- 
tives.    This  Handbook  is  itself  a  joint  production.

26 SOCIETIES 

Every  student  can  find  some  organized  college  activity  to  capture 
his  interest  and  utilize  his  ability.  Some  organizations  are  open  to 
all;  others  are  selective  or  honorary.  Extra-curricular  activities  will 
form  an  important  part  of  your  college  life ;  so  we  advise  you  to  choose 
them  carefully. 

SOCIETIES 

HONORARY 

Pi  Kappa  Delta.  Maryville  has  the  honor  or  having  the  Tennessee 
Alpha  Chapter  of  the  national  honorary  fraternity,  Pi  Kappa  Delta. 
Last  year  members  of  the  chapter  entered  a  number  of  different  speech 
tournaments  throughout  the  South  in  addition  to  other  speaking  activ- 
ity. Members  of  the  squad  have  consistantly  ranked  high  in  national 
and  local  tournaments.  There  is  a  freshman  debate  squad  as  well  as 
a  varsity  squad,  both  of  which  meet  as  classes  and  receive  college  credit 
for  their  work. 

Theta  Alpha  Phi.  Talented  dramatic  students  may,  upon  meet- 
ing certain  requirements  for  membership,  be  initiated  into  the  Ten- 
nessee Delta  Chapter  of  the  national  honorary  dramatic  fraternity, 
Theta  Alpha  Phi.  All  students  have  opportunity  to  try  out  for  the 
plays  given  by  various  organizations  each  year. 

Sigma  Delta  Psi.  The  Maryville  chapter  of  Sigma  Delta  Psi 
was  established  in  1930.  Membership  is  open  to  all  men  of  the  college 
"who  maintain  satisfactory  scholorship  and  command  the  respect  of 
their  associates  as  athletes  and  gentlemen."  Membership  is  earned 
by  meeting  the  requirements  of  the  various  athletic  tests  in  the  pre- 
sence of  a  responsible  committee. 

Alpha  Gamma  Sigma.  Alpha  Gamma  Sigma  was  organized  in 
the  spring  of  1934,  for  the  purpose  of  motivating  high  scholorship 
among  students.  Its  requirements  are  equal  to  those  of  Phi  Beta 
Kappa.  Ten  per  cent  of  the  graduating  class  may  be  admitted  pro- 
vided the  members  have  a  grade  point  ratio  of  6.5,  or  somewhat  more 
than  a  B  average.  Honorary  members  are  elected  from  the  alumni 
of  Maryville  College  who  have  won  distinction  in  various  fields  of 
endeavor. 

SOCIAL 

In  the  past  there  were  two  sets  of  literary  societies  on  the  Hill. 
Recently  all  of  the  organizations  have  swerved  from  their  original 
purpose,  and  have  become  purely  social  societies.  The  girl's  societies, 
Bainonian  and  Theta  Epsilon,  are  the  sister  societies  of  the  men's 
organizations  known  as  Athenian  and  Alpha  Sigma.  The  societies 
meet  every  Saturday  evening,  the  men  in  their  rooms  on  the  third  floor 
of  Anderson  Hall  and  the  women  in  their  rooms  on  the  second  floor 
of  Pearsons  Hall.     Each  society  adds  much  to  the  social  activities. 


ORGANIZATIONS  27 


ORGANIZATIONS 

RELIGIOUS 

The  Ministerial  Association.  Organized  in  1900,  the  Ministerial 
Association  is  composed  of  students  that  are  candidates  for  the  Chris- 
tian ministry.  It  has  for  its  object  the  enlistment  of  its  members  in 
various  forms  of  active  Christian  work  and  the  discussion  of  themes 
relating  to  the  work  of  the  ministry.  Its  most  important  activity  is 
that  embodied  in  four  standing  commitees  which  conduct  regular  pre- 
that  embodied  in  four  standing  committees  which  conduct  regular 
preaching  and  pastoral  work  in  the  county  prison,  local  missions,  and 
the  country  churches  in  the  vicinity  of  Maryville. 

Student  Volunteers.  Since  1894  the  students  have  maintained 
a  Student  Volunteer  organization  which  is  one  of  the  strongest  re- 
ligious influences  in  the  College.  It  is  composed  not  only  of  those 
who  have  pledged  themselves  to  the  foreign  field,  but  of  those  who 
are  interested  in  this  type  of  work.  Regular  meetings  of  the  group 
are  held  Sunday  evenings  after  Vespers.  Some  phase  of  missionary 
work  is  considered,  and  frequently  missionaries  on  furlough  provide 
valuable  and  inspiring  first-hand  material. 

Parish  Project.  The  Parish  Project  is  a  program  of  Christian 
service  to  communities  in  the  vicinity  of  Maryville.  Students  who 
volunteer  and  are  accepted  for  service  in  the  Project  carry  on  various 
types  of  service  activity.  These  include  Sunday  school  teaching  and 
administration,  teaching  week-day  Bible  classes  in  a  selected  group 
of  public  schools,  supervising  young  people's  societies,  and  the  leader- 
ship of  character-building  activity  groups  for  boys  and  girls.  The 
project  is  jointly  sponsored  and  supported  by  the  Board  of  National 
Missions,  the  Board  of  Christian  Education,  Maryville  College,  and 
the  New  Providence  Presbyterian  Church  of  Maryville.  All  who  serve 
in  the  project  are  enrolled  in  a  class  and  receive  academic  credit  for 
satisfactory  completion  of  the  work,  each  semester. 

PRE-VOCATIONAL

bers of  the  four  college  classes,  selected  on  a  competitive  basis.  Fresh- 
man students  are  allowed  to  try  out  for  the  Echo  through  their  English 
classes  at  the  first  of  the  year,  twelve  apprentices  being  chosen  each

departments  of  the  college,  this  makes  an  attractive  souvenir.  After

32  INTERCOLLEGIATE 


INTERCOLLEGIATE 

For  over  half  a  century  Maryville  has  maintained  teams  in  inter- 
collegiate competition.  Because  few  men  remain  at  Maryville  and 
other  colleges  and  army  college  trainees  cannot  take  part  in  an  inter- 
scholastic  program,  there  will  probably  be  no  intercollegiate  athletics 
at  Maryville  for  the  duration  of  the  war.  There  might  be  enough  men 
for  wrestling  and  tennis  teams. 

ADMINISTRATION 

The  athletic  program  of  Maryville  College  is  directed  by  the  fac- 
ulty, through  its  Committee  on  Athletics  (of  which  Athletic  Director 
Lombe  S.  Honaker  is  a  member),  with  the  cooperation  of  the  student 
body,  organized  as  the  Athletic  Association,  through  its  elected  rep- 
resentatives (eight  students  and  three  faculty  members)  on  the  Athletic 
Board  of  Control.  This  body,  regulated  by  a  constitution,  largely 
determines  the  policy  of  Maryville  athletics.  The  members  of  the 
Board  for  1943-44  are  as  follows:  Lloyd  Anderson,  president;  Trevor 
Williams,  vice-president,  Johnnye  Gudel,  secretary-treasurer;  Dr.  Case, 
Mrs.  Queener,  Margaret  Boretsky,  Mary  Evelyn  Waisman,  Joseph 
Brown,  Samuel  Crawford,  and  William  Sidner. 

PROGRAM 

Standing  for  a  well-rounded  college  life,  Maryville  College  has 
attained  a  high  rating  of  excellence  among  southeastern  schools.  Its 
athletes  are  not  bought;  only  physical  fitness  and  average  scholastic 
ability  determine  eligibility.  Athletic  ability  alone  does  not  make  a 
man  popular. 

The  Maryville  football  team  has  an  impressive  record.  In  1941 
the  Highlanders  triumphed  in  eight  games  out  of  nine.  However  in 
1942,  unable  to  schedule  its  traditional  rivals,  the  team  won  only  the 
first  of  eight  games.  The  basketball  team  in  1940  defeated  Lincoln 
Memorial  University  three  games  out  of  four  after  the  Railsplitters' 
long  winning  streak  over  such  teams  as  Duke,  and  U.  of  N.  C.  The 
wrestling  team,  competing  with  some  of  the  best  teams  in  the  country 
has  taken  twelve  championships.  In  1943  it  lost  only  one  match.  The 
baseball  team  won  42  games,  lost  three,  and  tied  one  in  three  years, 
1940-42.  Some  Maryville  diamond  men  have  made  good  as  profession- 
als, notably  Johnny  Stone,  long  a  star  of  the  Washington  Senators.  The 
tennis  team  placed  third  at  the  state  meet  in  1942  and  first  in  1943. 
Swimming  teams  had  competed  with  increasing  success;  the  track  and 
field  team  won  the  state  title  in  1939.

INTRAMURAL 

The  intramural  program  provides  Maryville  men  with  a  chance 
to  participate  in  various  non-varsity  sports  for  good  fellowship,  vig- 
orous competition,  and  physical  fitness. 

ADMINISTRATION 
To  a  large  extent  the  responsibility  for  the  intramural  sports  pro- 
gram rests  upon  the  senior  student  manager,  a  representative  of  the 
YMCA.     Working  with  him  and  the  coach  are  the  junior,  sophomore, 
and  freshman  (tryout)  managers. 

PROGRAM 
Running  through  the  year  as  part  of  the  physical  education  pro- 
gram, two  types  of  competition  are  offered.  The  division  or  team 
sports  are  conducted  in  two  leagues,  society  and  independent,  operating 
on  the  same  schedule.  Playoffs  are  held  between  league  champions. 
The  all-college  sports  are  engaged  in  individually  or  in  small  groups, 
each  person  representing  himself.  Faculty  teams  or  individuals  may 
take  part  in  intramural  activity  but  are  not  eligible  for  awards.  Some 
events  such  as  archery  have  been  open  to  women.  In  1943-44  it  may 
be  possible  for  aircrew  students  to  join  the  fun.  Besides  the  sports 
mentioned  in  the  awards  section  below,  gymnastics,  croquet,  swim- 
ming, track,  and  archery  were  scheduled  and  may  be  offered  another 
year.  A  phamplet  setting  forth  the  schedule,  staff,  objectives,  reg- 
ulations, point  system,  and  other  information  is  given  the  men  each 
fall.    Plan  to  be  active  in  intramurals.

POINT  SYSTEM 

As  at  most  colleges,  there  are  no  longer  intercollegiate  contests 
for  women  at  Maryville.  For  them  has  been  substituted  the  point 
system,  directed  by  Mrs.  Evelyn  N.  Queener  and  her  assistants.  Like 
the  men's  intramural  program,  the  point  system  attracts  those  seek- 
ing voluntary  and  required  exercise. 

PROGRAM 
Participation  in  the  different  sports  qualifies  a  girl  for  a  given 
number  of  points.  To  those  earning  over  300  points  awards  are  made 
at  the  end  of  the  year.  Every  girl  must  walk  the  seven-mile  loop 
twelve  times  a  year,  swim  twice  a  month,  and  spend  an  hour  in  ex- 
ercise daily.  Those  who  play  basketball,  soccer,  indoor  baseball,  or 
volleyball  earn  30  points  for  their  team.  Taking  part  in  swimming, 
track,  tennis,  hiking,  or  aerial  dart  tournaments  entitles  a  girl  to  50 
points.  Additional  points  are  awarded  for  sportsmanship,  member- 
ship on  the  squad,  managing  a  team,  and  perfect  attendance.  The  ob- 
servance of  health  rules  gives  a  maximum  of  25  points  a  semester. 
High  scholarship  adds  a  percentage  of  the  total.  Members  of  the  "M" 
Club  (those  who  have  earned  at  least  400  points)  take  a  mountain 
hike  each  spring,  and  enjoy  several  other  activities.

PROCEDURE  FOR  NEW  STUDENTS  ARRIVING 
IN  MARYVILLE 

1.  Inquire  at  one  of  the  Y.W.  and  Y.M.  general  information  tables 
which  will  be  located  on  the  lawn  in  the  central  campus  area  if 
you  are  in  doubt  about  anything. 

2.  Get  room  assignments,  find  rooms. 

3.  Check  baggage  with  Y.M.,  Y.W. 

4.  Go  to  scheduled  meeting  in  chapel. 

5.  Follow  schedule  sheets  sent  out  by  the  Personnel  Office  and 
further  directions  given  at  meetings. 

COMMON  SENSE  FOR  COLLEGE  STUDENTS 

Have  regular  hours  for  study — and  use  them  for  study.  Effect- 
ive studying  is  partly  a  science  and  partly  an  art  to  be  mastered  by 
each  individual  through  studying  his  own  particular  habits  and  needs. 

"Tote  fair"  with  the  home  folks.  Match  their  sacrifice  with  your 
diligence.  Write  to  them,  especially  Mother,  at  least  once  a  week. 
Your  neglect  will  convict  you  of  the  crime  of  ingratitude. 

Be  yourself — your  best  self,  consistently.  If  you  have  ideals, 
hold  on  to  them;  if  you  have  questions,  ask  them;  if  you  have  ideas, 
put  them  to  work. 

Don't  let  anyone  tell  you  that  "activities"  are  as  important  or 
more  important  than  studies.  They're  not — at  least  not  for  any  stu- 
dent who  has  a  reasonable  amount  of  brains  and  intellectual  interest. 
If  you  haven't  these,  leave  college  now! 

When  you  get  a  chance  to  further  a  friendship  with  a  professor, 
don't  be  a  fool  and  think  it  isn't  done — grab  it ! 


38  COLLEGE         TOWN 


Spiritual  "rickets"  may  be  fashionable  with  some  students  but 
you  cannot  walk  with  undernourished  legs.  And  walk  you  must  to  live, 
and  live  you  must  before  you  dare  to  die.  So — go  to  church;  not  to 
please  the  school,  but  to  refill  yourself  with  strength,  courage,  and 
truth  in  order  that  you  may  perform  with  the  greatest  ability  your 
life  tasks  as  you  see  them  cut  out  before  you. 

Experience  is  the  stuff  of  growth;  and  you  grow  only  when  you 
reflect  upon  and  evaluate  your  experiences  and  the  experiences  of  the 
race,  and  then,  on  the  basis  of  such  evaluations,  act  more  wisely  in  the 
future  from  the  way  you  have  acted  in  the  past. 

— V.P.B.,  Guidon,  Virginia  Tech

The  Ministry  of 
Vital  Importance 


General  Hershey  said  recently,  "Congress  has 
recognized  the  necessity  of  religious  guidance  and  edu- 
cation as  vital  to  the  welfare  of  the  Nation."  So  students 
for  the  ministry  are  deferred  by  draft  boards. 

We  are  selecting  the  strongest  campus  leaders  for 
training.  Competitive  scholarships  covering  all  expenses 
are  available.  But  no  promising  man  will  be  turned  away 
for  lack  of  funds. 

Chicago  is  the  center  of  theological  education  in 
America,  with  eleven  seminaries  here,  because  of  the 
great  advantage  of  this  area. 

For  1 15  years  our  Seminary  has  trained  the  majority 
of  all  Presbyterian  ministers  in  the  great  Mississippi 
Valley.

MARYVILLE  COLLEGE 

Maryville,  Tennessee 


ONE  HUNDRED  AND  TWENTY-FIFTH  YEAR 
BEGINS  SEPTEMBER  I.  1943 


Maryville  College  is  one  of  the  important  church- 
related  institutions  of  America,  and  seeks  to  be  true  to  the 
noblest  traditions  of  the  association  of  education  and 
religion.  Its  directors  are  elected  by  the  Synod  of  Mid- 
South  of  the  Presbyterian  Church  in  the  U.S.A. 

It  is  a  Christian  liberal  arts  college  with  the  purpose 
of  providing  a  general  cultural  education.  During  the 
war  period  it  is  also  rendering  a  special  service  in  its 
Army  Air  Forces  college  training  program. 

Its  fees  are  deliberately  kept  at  a  low  level  for  the 
benefit  of  those  who  might  not  be  able  to  attend  other- 
wise. This  makes  earnest  cooperation  on  the  part  of  all 
an  essential  factor. 

It  desires  to  select  its  students  on  the  basis  of  prep- 
aration, earnestness,  capacity,  character,  and  co-opera- 
tiveness.
