FROM  YOUR  PRESIDENT 


As  President  of  the  College  it  is  my  privilege 
to  represent  the  Faculty  and  Staff  and  the 
Directors  in  extending  a  cordial  welcome  to  old 
and  new  students  as  they  enter  upon  the  college 
year.  Our  prayer  is  that  each  may  be  given 
health  and  good  opportunity. 

There  are  approximately  one  hundred  persons 
on  the  faculty  and  the  administrative  and  main- 
tenance staff  and  thirty-six  members  of  the 
Beard  of  Directors.  All  are  sincerely  interested 
in  every  Maryville  College  student  and  in  making 
the  institution  the  most  effective  possible. 

These  lines  help  introduce  a  booklet  which 
contains  a  great  deal  of  valuable  information 
which  I  commend  to  you  for  reading  now  and 
reference  throughout  the  year.  May  it  be  a 
successful  year. 

—RALPH  WALDO  LLOYD, 

President  of  Maryville  College 


T  IS  FOR  TRADITION 

Talk  about  Traditions — Maryville's  got  'em! 
Old  ones,  new  ones — and  you'll  never  feel  your- 
self a  part  of  the  Hill  till  you  know  most  of  them. 
We  think  our  traditions  are  sort  of  special, 
something  you'll  remember  particularly  nostal- 
gically when  you're  old  and  grey  graduates. 

You'll  always  remem.ber  your  first  days  at 
Maryville  as  days  of  lines — lines  at  the  Personnel 
Office,  lines  at  the  Treasurer's  Office,  lines  at 
the  Bookstore.  Then  that  longest  and  long- 
remembered  line  of  hand-shakers  at  the  FACUL- 
TY RECEPTION.  You'll  want  to  dress  formally 
as  you  can  to  meet  and  get  acquainted  with  the 
MC  faculty  members.  There'll  be  new  faces  and 
names  which  will  grow  to  mean  a  lot  to  you 
during  your  college  stay. 

Since  membership  in  the  girls'  societies — 
Bainonian  and  Theta  Epsilon — and  the  men's 
societies — Alpha  Sigma  and  Athenian — is  open 
to  all  members  of  the  student  body,  respectively, 
cf  course,  the  four  societies  go  all  out  during 
RUSH  WEEK  to  line  up  all  new  students  as  pros- 
pective members.  In  consecutive  weeks  the  two 
brother-and-sister  societies  conduct  intensive 
membership  drives  culminating  in  the  Saturday 
night  formal  program.  Last  year  Bainonian  and 
Athenian  presented  a  South  of  the  Border  musical 
program,  while  Theta  and  Alpha  Sig  entertained 
with  a  World  Cruise  musical  revue. 

When  you  hear  Tuesday  night  called  TOWN 
NIGHT,  you'll  know  it's  The  Night  of  the  week 
when  you  and  your  date  can  enjoy  a  movie, 
bowling,  skating  or  just  a  hamburger  and  french 
fries  downtown  till  ten  o'clock.  Mark  our  words 
— the  bright  lights  of  Broadway  (Maryville's 
main  street,  of  course)  will  lure  you  on  Town 
Nights. 


other  week-day  nights  you'll  want  to  have  a 
coke  and  a  sandwich  or  a  malted  milk  at  the 
STUDENT  CENTER.  Besides  being  open  for  all 
students  during  the  day  as  a  lounge  and  recrea- 
tion center,  the  attractive  white  building  con- 
tains the  Y-STORE  which  is  open  at  various 
daytimie  hours  and  from  9:30  till  10:15  at  night. 
After  big  doings,  like  ball  games  or  the  various 
Saturday  night  happenings,  the  Y-Store  opens 
long  enough  for  refreshments,  too. 

SUNDAY  VESPERS  feature  guest  speakers  and 
the  music  of  the  College's  outstanding  A  Capella 
Choir.  Held  in  Lamar  Library  since  the  Chapel 
fire,  Vespers  closes  the  Sunday  program  with  a 
tone  of  quiet  dignity  and  worship. 

You'll  envy  the  lovely  senior  girl  elected  to 
reign  as  Queen  on  FOUNDERS'  AND  HOME- 
COMING DAY.  Dorms  are  colorfully  decorated 
to  receive  the  alumni  who  arrive  in  great  num.- 
bers  for  their  outdoor  barbeque.  The  morning  is 
marked  by  a  dignified  chapel  service  commemo- 
rating the  College's  founding,  and  the  evening  is 
highlighted  by  your  best  yells  from  the  football 
field  as  the  Highlanders  meet  their  toughest  foes 
on  our  home  gridiron. 

Your  guess  is  as  good  as  ours  as  to  what  will 
be  the  theme  of  this  year's  BARNWARMING. 
This,  THE  big  show  of  the  fall,  is  held  every 
Thanksgiving  eve  in  Alumni  Gym,  its  program 
planned  by  the  campus  Y's.  Following  a  period 
during  which  you  can  visit  the  various  little 
"shops"  set  up  around  the  gym  fringes,  you'll  see 
a  gala  extravaganza  featuring  the  best  talent  the 
campus  can  produce.  Oh  yes — reigning  mon- 
archs  are  the  King  and  Queen,  chosen  from  the 
senior  class,  and  their  attendants  who,  while 
elected  by  the  student  body  some  weeks  before, 
remain  Maryville's  top  secret  till  Barnwarming 
night.  In  past  years  the  gym  has  become  the 
lost  continent   of  Atlantis,   a   gypsy  forest,   and 


—7- 


New  Orleans  at  Mardi  Gras  time  for  Barnwarm- 
ing;  wonder  what  the  '49  show  will  be? 

And  then  Christmas  comes  around,  bringing 
not  only  a  short  vacation  preceded  by  final 
exams,  but  also  the  annual  presentation  of 
Handel's  MESSIAH.  Yours  can  be  one  of  the 
hundreds  of  voices  which,  accompanied  by  the 
College  orchestra  and  Miss  Davies  at  the  organ, 
presents  this  enthralling  oratorio. 

You'll  enjoy  those  Christmas  holidays  well 
enough,  but  we'll  bank  on  your  eagerness  to  get 
back  on  campus  quickly  enough  when  they're 
over!  That's  in  January;  in  February  comes  the 
week  when  emphasis  is  shifted  more  to  spiritual 
thoughts  during  FEBRUARY  MEETINGS.  Mid- 
morning  chapel  services,  a  bit  longer  than  usual, 
give  you  time  to  appreciate  the  messages  of  the 
year's  speaker  and  the  well-known  hymns  we 
sing. 

February  also  marks  the  College's  drive  for  its 
FRED  HOPE  FUND.  Established  in  memory  and 
tribute  of  one  of  Maryville's  outstanding  gradu- 
ates, this  fund  enables  one  of  our  fellow  students 
to  work  in  the  foreign  mission  field.  You'll  want 
to  contribute  to  this  worthwhile  drive. 

It's  worth  getting  up  early  and  traipsing  out 
to  the  College  amphitheatre  to  see  the  sun 
rise  as  the  choir  sings  "Alleluia"  in  the  annual 
EASTER  SUNRISE  SERVICE. 

Once  each  year  the  dorms  hold  OPEN  HOUSE 
when  the  fellows  and  girls  display  their  rooms  to 
each  other  and  the  general  public.  This  occasion 
is  immediately  preceded  by  some  exhaustive 
house  cleaning  and  is  generally  followed  by  loud 
sighs  of  relief.  Both  fellows  and  girls  are  inter- 
ested in  seeing  just  How  the  Other  Half  Lives, 
and  moms  and  dads  drop  around  to  see  how  jr. 
and  sis  are  taking  care  of  their  rooms. 

Big  musical  program  of  the  spring  is  SPRING- 
TIME SENERADE,  inaugurated  two  years  ago 


-8- 


by  the  Men's  Glee  Club  and  the  All-Girl  Choir. 
Framed  in  a  lovely  stage  setting,  these  groups 
present  a  fascinating  program  of  musical  numbers 
from  popular  operettas,  accompanied  by  twin 
pianos  and  Mr.  Hughes  at  the  electric  organ 
console. 

Our  lovely  amphitheatre  in  the  College  Woods 
becomes  such  varied  scenes  as  the  Emerald  City 
of  Oz  cr  a  Southern  plantation  for  the  annual 
MAY  DAY  PAGEANT.  Some  lovely  senior  girl 
and  her  attendants  reign  over  the  festivities, 
which  feature  music,  dancing,  and  acting  com- 
bined in  an  attractive  pageant.  Previous  pag- 
eants have  been  Robin  Hood,  the  Wizard  of  Oz, 
and  Plantation  Story,  dramatized  from  the  Uncle 
Remus  tales. 

When  COMMENCEMENT  comes  it  marks  not 
only  the  beginning  of  a  new  life  for  the  depart- 
ing seniors  but  the  end  of  another  experience- 
packed  College  year.  The  dignified  services  are 
climaxed  by  the  Commencement  exercises  w^th 
the  processional  of  the  Daisy  Chain,  the  faculty, 
and  the  graduating  class.  The  Daisy  Chain,  com- 
posed of  14  girls  of  the  junior  class,  make  the 
long  daisy  chains  between  which  the  graduating 
seriors  march  down  the  aisle  toward  diplomas 
and  freedom.  We  feel  sure  the  departing  seniors 
have  more  than  the  little  initials  after  their 
names  to  remember,  though. 

But  it's  "See  you  next  fall!"  for  the  rest  of  us 
—and  toward  the  end  of  that  LONG  SUMMER 
VACATION  we  find  ourselves  anxious  to  get 
back  to  the  College  which  has  become  so  much  a 
part  of  our  lives  and  personalities. 


D  IS  FOR  DATING 


You'll  probably  meet  a  "he"  or  a  "she"  you 
want  to  date  very  soon  (after  you  start  your 
college  career,  if  you're  a  freshman),  so  here 
are  a  few  thing's  you'll  have  to  remember. 
Parlor  dates  may  be  had  in  the  women's  dormi- 
tory parlors  from  7:15  until  10  any  weekday 
evening  by  arranging  with  the  Dormitory  Head. 
Junior  and  senior  women  may  have  an  unlimited 
number,  while  freshmen  and  sophomores  are 
limited  to  four  each  month.  Sunday  dating  is 
for  services  only,  except  Easter  and  Baccalaur- 
eate Sundaj^s,  when  afternoon  dating  is  also 
permitted. 

Calling  hours  for  men  in  women's  dormitories 
are  on  weekdays  from  1:00  to  1:20  p.  m.,  3:30  to 
5:30  p.  m.,  and  6:30  to  7:15  p.  m.;  Town  Night 
from  6:30  to  7:15  p.  m.,  and  9:30  to  10  p.  m.; 
Sunday  afternoon  from  1:00  to  1:20  p.  m.; 
Saturday  afternoon  from  1:00  to  5:30  p.  m.  Men 
may  stay  in  the  dorms  after  Vespers  on  Sunday 
until  8:15  and  after  Student  Vols  until  9:15. 
Couples  may  be  together  within  Circle  Drive 
each  weekday  evening  until  7:15;  on  Sunday, 
Circle  Drive  time  limit  is  7:00,  and  couples  may 
be  together  after  lunch  until  1:20  p.  m. 

Dating  is  allowed  at  announced  college  activi- 
ties. Couples  must  return  to  the  women's  dormi- 
tories within  fifteen  minutes  after  the  close  of 
the  activity  or  immediately  after  leaving  the 
Student  Center,  and  men  do  not  stay  after  that 
time.  Otherwise  there  is  no  dating  on  weekday 
evenings,  except  that  men  may  walk  back  with 
women  directly  from  the  library  or  Student  Cen- 
ter to  the  women's  dormitories  and  leave  im- 
mediately.

,\UI 


When  you're  a  senior,  you'll  have  additional 
privileges  technically  called  WSGA  Senior  Priv- 
ileges.   Each  senior  woman  is  allowed  an  extra 

Town  Night  gov- 
erned by  regular 
rules.  On  this  night 
(other  than  Tuesday 
night)  dating  is  per- 
mitted to  seniors  in 
Knoxville  provided 
'    ^  ^    •.\  fi^t^cNHD-,    they    are    in    the 

(c(l(Sl*       /^)'\^TO^     dormitory    by    8:30 
cH^'^V    \  ''       \\W^r^     p.m.   Sunday  after- 
noon dating  is  also 
/>f<^^  "A    O  V     ^t-U  l^hK      allowed   for   seniors 
Sy'^^C^    ^_     iJ^H^     between  3  and  5:30 

p.  m.  on  the  campus, 
in  residential  areas 
of  the  city,  and  for  groups  of  couples  in  the 
College  Woods  and  around  the  loop.  Seniors 
must  report  ail  underclass  women  who  take 
advantage  of  senior  privileges  as  well  as  violating 
seniors  to  the  Executive  Committee  of  WSGA. 

Before  entertaining  an  overnight  guest,  be  sure 
to  make  necessary  arrangements  with  the  Dieti- 
cian and  Head  of  the  dormitory;  also,  please  have 
your  guests  register  in  the  guest  book. 

In  planning  parties,  picnics,  and  other  social 
activities,  you  must  secure  approval  from  the 
Dean  of  Women  at  least  five  days  in  advance. 
Dates  for  all-campus  activities  of  large  groups 
must  be  scheduled  by  the  Dean  of  Curriculum. 
All  social  activities  must  be  properly  chaperoned 
and  must  be  held  on  campus  or  at  some  approved 
place.  The  Y  rooms  are  available  for  parties 
and  such  if  arrangements  are  made  in  advance 
through  the  YWCA  House  Committee  and  the 
plans  approved  by  the  Dean  of  Women. 

Official  Town  Night  is  Tuesday  night  when 
students  may  go  to  town.  Girls  must  be  in  groups 


—  11  — 


of  three  or  with  a  date  and  must  sign  out  and 
in  on  the  sign-out  sheet  between  5  and  10:15 
p.  m.  When  special  permission  is  granted,  girls 
must  notify  either  the  president  or  the  secretary 
of  the  Student  Council.  Students  must  take  a 
direct  route  to  town  and  stay  within  specified 
boundaries.  There  shall  be  no  loitering  on 
campus,  on  the  way  to  and  from  town,  or  in 
front  of  the  women's  dormitories.  Upon  re- 
turning, couples  may  go  directly  to  the  Student 
Center  by  signing  out  previously  on  the  sign-out 
sheet.  Couples  may  also  come  into  the  women's 
dormitory  parlors  between  9:30  and  10  p.  m. 

You'll  want  to  avoid  breaking  these  rules, 
which  lead  to  suspension  of  Town  Night  privil- 
eges, as  levied  by  the  Student  Council:  for  loiter- 
ing— two  months;  being  out  of  bounds — four 
months;  failing  to  sign  in  or  out — three  weeks; 
failure  of  girls  to  be  in  groups  of  three  or  with 
date — four  months;  and  overstaying  time  limit — 
two  months.  Two  demerits  may  be  given  for  in- 
fringing on  Town  Night  suspension. 

Social  dancing  was  last  year's  big  step  in  MC 
social  life.  Dancing  each  vx^eekday  (except  Sat- 
urday) evening  following  supper  till  7:15  is  in- 
formal, held  in  Intramural  Gymnasium. 

The  Fall  Dance,  scheduled  for  some  date  in 
the  middle  of  the  first  semester,  has  rules  that 
say  "No"  to:  corsages,  tuxes,  admission  charge, 
and  program  dances.  Music  is  recorded,  and  tlie 
informal  note  is  set. 

For  the  Big  Formal,  or  Spring  Dance,  different 
rules  apply.  Admission  tickets  are  one  dollar 
per  couple,  and,  since  this  is  a  "program  dance," 
only  couples  are  admitted.  Gals  dress  formal, 
fellovv^s  may  look  just  as  nice  in  trim  business 
suits  as  in  tuxedos,  which  are  helpful  but  not 
necessary.  Corsages  are  in  style.  Your  request 
for  a  non-student  guest  must  be  handled  through 
the  office  of  the  Dean  of  Women.

D  IS  FOR  DORMITORY 

One  of  the  biggest  adjustments  you'll  have  to 
make  is  that  of  living  with  not  only  one  room- 
mate but  also  a  v/hole  dormful  of  people!  If 
you're  lucky  you'll  manage  the  jump  with  grace; 
if  you're  not  you'll  v/ant  to  read  more  carefully 
than  ever  these  suggestions  for  happy  dormitory 
life. 

To  begin  with,  a  dormitory  full  of  varied  per- 
sonalities requires  you  to  use  far  more  patience, 
consideration,  and  understanding  than  you  might 
think  you  possess.  The  best  rule  to  follov/  is  the 
oft-quoted  Golden  one,  which  m.eans  a  lot  when 
it  comes  to  happy  dorm  living.  Respect  what 
little  privacy  there  may  be,  and  let  your  conduct 
always  be  what  you'd  appreciate  from  others. 

Whether  your  studying  is  well-balanced  (as  it 
should  be)  or  heavily  concentrated  during  cer- 
tain cramming  periods  (as  it  won't  be  if  you 
budget  your  time  properly)  you'll  appreciate  your 
neighbor's  being  considerate  about  loud  radios, 
talking,  hall  yelling,  and  door  slamming.  Not  to 
mention  spending  their  time  in  your  room.  Natur- 
ally enough,  your  neighbors  will  appreciate  these 
little  courtesies  on  your  part,  too. 

Don't  wait  till  time  for  the  yearly  Open 
House  to  do  the  hurried  housecleaning  that  will 
deceive  your  mother  as  to  the  habitual  condition 
of  3^our  room.  A  little  regular  cleaning  will  do 
wonders  for  your  room's  appearance  and  your 
roommate's  good  humor.  Your  floor  janitor  will 
also  stay  in  a  good  humor  if  you  don't  sweep 
the  dirt  into  the  hall  he  or  she  has  to  clean. 

It's  a  fact  that  Cleanliness  is  next  to  Impossible 
when  the  bathroom  is  filled  with  drying  clothes 
and  the  tubs  and  basins  reflect  a  critical  lack  of 
thought  on  the  part  of  the  person  immediately 


•13- 


preceding  you.  Everyone  appreciates  considera- 
tion in  the  form  of  clean  bathroom  facilities. 
Also,  you  never  know  whom  you're  going  to 
meet  in  the  hall,  so  if  you  must  meander,  mean- 
der properly  clad  to  avoid  possible  mutual  em- 
barrassment. 

Little  things  like  borrowing  extensively  from 
your  roommate — not  only  money,  but  also  ties 
and  blouses,  playing  your  radio  both  loud  and 
late,  catty  discussions  of  your  friends  and  others, 
monopolizing  the  telephone,  and  extensive  visit- 
ing during  quiet  hours  may  seem  trifles  to  you, 
but  your  dormitory  reputation  hangs  on  such 
slender  threads  as  those. 


FOR  YOUR  ROOM 

Chief  on  the  list  of  Requireds  is  that  mattress 
pad  you'll  have  to  have  for  your  bed,  but  your 
room  will  look  all  the  better  for  any  amount  of 
"prettying-up"  you  care  to  do.  Extensive  alter- 
ations and  improvements  need  the  OK  of  the 
Head  of  the  Dormitory  and  the  Director  of  Main- 
tenance, but  they're  very  cooperative  about  your 
fixing  your  room.  Remember,  you're  the  one 
responsible  for  the  condition  of  your  room  and 
its  furnishings. 

Owing  to  the  always-present  fire  hazard  in  the 
dormitories,  overloading  of  the  electric  circuits 
is  discouraged  by  limiting  the  use  of  equipment. 
If  you  need  more  light  than  you  can  squeeze  out 
of  the  150  watts  the  College  allows  each  room 
in  the  form  of  one  overhead  drop  cord  (and  one 
wall  plug  in  the  men's  dorm),  you  may  have  50 
additional  watts  for  $2.50.  Ask  your  dormi- 
tory head  to  make  out  an  extra-current  card  and 
pay  for  it  at  the  Treasurer's  Office  during  regis- 
tration. If  you  want  to  bring  your  radio,  be  pre- 
pared to  pay  the  $2.50  fee  for  it,  too.    And  pay 


•14- 


the  fees  promptly,  because  they  are  upped  to 
$3.50  if  late.  But  if  you're  a  good  figurer  of 
wattage  you  can  bring  things  like  clocks,  lamps 
(preferably  the  fluorescent  kind  which  take 
fewer  watts),  radios  and  razors.  No  hotplates, 
irons  or  electric  hair  driers  may  be  used  in  the 
rooms;  ironing  can  be  done  on  the  ironing  boards 
in  each  laundry. 

Extension  cords  looped  around  on  the  floor 
or  hanging  from  bare  nails  are  forbidden  not 
only  by  the  College  but  also  by  state  fire  inspect- 
ors. You'll  be  expected  to  comply  with  the 
"lights  out"  and  "light  cut"  regulations  that  apply 
to  your  dorm,  as  well  as  the  regulation  against 
playing  your  radio  between  11  at  night  and  6 
in  the  morning. 

Regulations  require  penalties,  but  the  latter 
won't  apply  to  you  if  you  follow  the  former. 
Electrical  equipment  used  contrary  to  dorm  reg- 
ulations is  liable  to  confiscation  for  the  rest  of 
the  sem^ester.  Your  radio  particularly,  if  played 
after  11  p.  m.,  will  find  itself  in  the  office  for 
one  month.  Of  course  smoking  is  forbidden  any- 
where on  campus,  but  it  would  be  doubly  dan- 
gerous to  do  so  in  your  room;  you'll  be  subject 
to  College  discipline  if  you're  found  smoking  in 
your  room.  Possessing  liquor  bottles,  road  signs, 
someone  else's  key  or  pass  key,  or  firearms  is 
considered,  obviously,  a  disciplinable  offense. 

If  you're  going  to  live  in  the  dormitory,  or 
are  an  out-of-town  student  rooming  off  campus, 
don't  plan  to  bring  a  car  for  use  at  College.  If 
you  think  yours  may  be  an  unusual  case  entitling 
you  to  special  permission,  make  a  written  re- 
quest through  the  Personnel  Office.  Local  Mary- 
ville  students  who  regularly  use  cars  at  the  Col- 
lege and  faculty  members  who  drive  to  and  from 
and  park  on  the  campus  must  secure  permit  tags 
and  parking  spaces  from  the  Director  of  Main- 
tenance. 

^15— 


You'll  need  a  permit  from  the  Director  of 
Student  Employment  in  order  to  act  as  an  agent 
for  any  business  firm  in  any  of  the  dormitories. 

Each  dormitory  plans  and  participates  in  emer- 
gency drills;  be  familiar  with  your  dorm's  pro- 
cedure and  regulations  and  follow  them  to  the 
letter.  Violation  of  rules  for  these  drills  is  con- 
sidered a  serious  offense,  as  is  meddling  with 
any  dormitory  fire  equipment. 

Out  of  consideration  for  yourself  and  others, 
observe  the  quiet  or  study  hours  which  last  from 
7:15  till  11  p.  m.  in  the  dormitories  each  day 
except  Saturday  and  Sunday.  The  Library's  a 
good  place  to  study  from  Monday  through  Friday 
from  7  to  10  each  night;  women  students  must 
sign  out  and  in,  in  their  respective  dorms. 

Notify  your  house  mother  if  you  become  ill. 
She'll  arrange  to  have  your  absences  from  Chapel 
and  classes  excused  by  signing  a  list  of  these 
absences  on  a  little  yellow  form  which  you  can 
obtain  from  and  return  to  the  Personnel  Office. 
Turn  in  these  absence  reports,  signed,  within 
two  days  after  you  return  to  classes;  otherwise 
the  excuse  will  not  be  approved. 

If  it  is  necessary  for  you  to  go  to  the  College 
Hospital  as  a  patient,  you'll  w^ant  to  take  your 
own  pajamias,  towels,  washcloths,  etc.,  after 
arrangements  have  been  made  for  your  entrance 
by  the  head  of  your  dormitory.  Visiting  hours 
in  the  hospital  are  between  4  to  7  p.  m.,  and 
open  hours  in  the  infirmary  clinic  are  4  until 
5  p.  m.  each  weekday;  the  doctor  is  there  on 
Monday,  Wednesday,  and  Friday  afternoons.  Of 
course  emergency  cases  will  be  received  any 
time. 

Regulations  imposed  by  civil  laws  are  auto- 
matically College  regulations,  such  as  the  Ten- 
nessee state  law  forbidding  the  possession  and 
use  of  fireworks. 

—16— 


Nobody  appreciates  neatness  more  than  we 
do,  but  do  your  laundering  in  the  laundry  rooms, 
except  in  emergencies  when  small  amounts  of 
light  laundry  may  be  done  in  the  bathrooms,  and 
do  your  ironing  in  the  laundry  rooms  or  the 
other  specified  places.  Each  dormitory  has  its 
own  rules  concerning  use  of  the  washing  ma- 
chines and  irons.  No  laundering  is  to  be  done  on 
Sunday,  and  no  ironing,  except  emergency  press- 
ing between  7  and  9  a.  m. 

WOMEN'S  DORMITORIES 

In  addition  to  the  general  rules  you've  already 
read,  the  women's  dorms  have  some  particular 
regulations  you'll  want  to  be  familiar  with. 

The  dormitory  Sign-Out  Sheet  requires  your 
signature,  personally,  whenever  you  leave  the 
campus,  either  day  or  night,  and  for  all  night 
activities  on  the  campus  —  Town  Night,  the 
library,  or  visiting  another  dormitory.  If  attend- 
ing a  College  function,  return  to  the  dorm  as 
soon  as  it's  over;  arrangements  to  attend  other 
functions  must  be  made  with  the  head  of  your 
dormitory  or  with  the  Dean   of  Women. 

To  be  absent  from  the  campus,  you  must  al- 
ways sign  out  and  in  on  the  sign-out  sheet. 
Trips  to  Maryville  or  Knoxville  may  be  made 
any  weekday  providing  you  return  to  the  campus 
before  6  p.  m.;  trips  to  Knoxville  are  not  made 
in  the  company  of  men.  Groups  of  two  or  more 
girls  may  walk  in  the  College  Woods  on  week- 
days and  Sundays  not  in  company  of  men.  If 
you  wish  to  visit  over  the  weekend  or  to  be 
absent  overnight  from  the  campus,  you  will  have 
to  have  written  permission  from  your  home  or 
have  had  your  parents  previously  sign  the  regu- 
lar Standing  Permissions  form  which  allows  you 
approximately  five  visits  a  semester  other  than 
to  your  own  home;  approval  for  these  visits  must 
be  obtained  in  advance  from  the  dormitory  head, 

—17— 


and  your  plans  must  be  discussed  with  her  so 
that  she  can  fill  out  your  activity  card  properly. 

When  properly  chaperoned  and  arranged, 
week-end  camping  trips  are  allowed;  seniors  and 
juniors  may  have  two  such  trips  a  year,  and 
sophomores  and  freshmen,  one. 

You'll  be  asked  to  serve  as  monitor  for  your 
floor  at  least  once  during  the  semester.  This 
means  you'll  have  to  be  present  on  your  floor 
during  the  time  you're  on  duty,  seeing  that  halls 
are  kept  quiet  during  study  hours  and  that  stu- 
dents are  in  their  own  rooms  after  11  p.  m.  It's 
your  job  to  check  on  proper  use  of  lights  and 
radios  at  night,  to  answer  the  buzzer,  and  to  see 
that  rules  in  general  are  obeyed.  Violations  are 
to  be  reported  to  the  House  Committee. 

Outgoing  telephone  calls  may  be  made  and 
received  any  time  between  6  a.  m.  and  11  p.  m. 
Outgoing  calls,  except  to  faculty  and  staff,  are 
to  be  made  on  the  pay  phones;  incoming  calls 
will  be  received  on  the  office  phone. 

You  may  be  summoned  before  the  House  Com- 
mittee for  infraction  of  these  dormitory  rules,  as 
provided  for  by  the  monitors  and  officers  of 
WSGA:  ironing  on  Sunday  other  than  at  the 
specified  time;  abusing  light-cut  regulations;  be- 
ing in  another's  room  after  11  p.  m.;  laundering 
in  bathroom  contrary  to  regulations;  being  in 
bathroom  after  11  p.  m.  for  other  than  legitimate 
reasons;  undue  disturbances;  and  for  violations 
of  other  dormitory  rules. 

Study  hours  in  the  women's  dormitories  are 
from  7:15  p.  m.  each  day  except  Saturday  and 
Sunday.  In  the  sophomore  and  freshman  dorm- 
itories closed  stucfy  hours  are  kept  from  7:30 
to  9:30  p.  m.  In  junior-senior  dorms  three  light- 
cuts  per  room  are  permitted  each  week;  in  the 
sophomore-freshman  dorms  two  light-cuts  per 
room  per  week  are  allowed. 

—18— 


MEN'S  DORMITORIES 

Here  are  a  few  additional  regulations  that 
apply  particularly  to  men  students. 

Overnight  absence  must  be  arranged  with  the 
Head  of  the  men's  dormitory.  The  where- 
abouts of  all  students  must  be  known  at  all 
times,  should  they  be  needed  for  any  special 
reason.  Men  may  entertain  their  families  in  the 
dorm  lobby  at  specified  times.  Men's  visiting 
hours  for  student  rooms  in  Carnegie  and  Bart- 
lett  are  from  3:30  to  7:15  p.  m.  each  day. 

Disciplinary  measures  will  be  taken  by  the 
Executive  Council  of  the  Faculty  or  the  Super- 
visor of  Men's  Residence  for  infractions  of  these 
rules:  abusing  light  privilege;  visiting  or  having 
visitors  after  11  p.  m.;  creating  a  disturbance  in 
the  dormitory  or  causing  the  willful  destruction 
of  property;  and  violation  of  other  dormitory 
regulations. 

OFF-CAMPUS  MEN 

Though  you  may  have  to  room,  off-campus  for 
a  while — say.  your  first  year  at  Maryville — you'll 
get  into  the  dorm  after  while.  Till  you  do,  re- 
member that  the  same  behavior  is  expected  of 
you — if  not  better — in  private  homes  than  the 
dormitory  heads  would  expect  of  you  on  campus. 
Be  considerate  in  your  use  of  radio,  lights,  and 
leisure  time.  For  overnight  absences,  report  to 
the  Supervisor  of  Men's  Residence  in  Carnegie 
Hall.  Men  rooming  off-campus,  both  local  and 
out  of  town,  may  use  washroomis  in  Bartlett, 
Thaw,  and  Carnegie,  and  the  lounge  room  in  the 
Student  Center  building. 


—19- 


JUST  IN  GENERAL 

Though  the  foregoing  lists  may  seem  like  a 
lot  of  rules,  you'll  discover  if  only  by  reading 
between  the  lines  (and  we  hope  you've  done 
more  than  that!)  that  if  you  are  considerate  and 
well-behaved,  you'll  get  along  swimmingly  at 
Maryville  without  even  knowing  there  are  such 
things  as  regulations  and  penalties.  But  a  few 
will  need  disciplinary  measures,  even  these: 
Demerits,  given  by  the  Executive  Council  of 
the  Faculty  for  violations  of  College  regulations; 
Dismissal  from  College,  given  by  the  same  body 
when  a  student  accumulates  15  penalized  ab- 
sences in  one  semester,  or  gets  ten  demerits,  or 
persistently  fails  to  cooperate  with  the  general 
College  program. 

General  regulations,  which  you'd  probably 
follow  anj'^way,  include  such  as  these:  Ball 
throwing  or  snowballing  nearer  buildings  than 
the  roadways  is  not  permitted;  Sunday  visiting 
of  drug  stores,  restaurants,  and  the  like,  and 
using  College  athletic  facilities  on  Sunday  is  not 
to  be  done,  and  visiting  pool  rooms  or  establish- 
ments selling  beer  or  other  intoxicants  is  never 
to  be  done.  Use  of  intoxicants  by  students  is 
strictly  forbidden. 


—20— 


F  IS  FOR  FOOD 


If  you  like  to  eat — and  even  if  you  don't  you're 
bound  to  spend  some  of  your  semester  here 
doing  just  that — you'll  soon  discover  Pearsons 
Dining  Hall.  Meals  are  served  there  each  day. 
Breakfast  is  served  at  7  a.  m.  on  weekdays  and 
at  8  on  Sundays.  Luncheon  is  served  at  12:30 
p.  m.  each  day.  Dinner  is  served  at  6:00  p.  m. 
Monday  through  Friday,  and  at  5:30  on  Satur- 
days and  Sundays. 

Your  tablemates,  all  seven  of  them,  will  ap- 
preciate your  appearing  well-groomed  and  well- 
mannered  at  meals.  Particularly  before  dinner 
is  a  good  time  to  freshen  up  a  little,  but  all 
meals  deserve  your  best  mealtime  etiquette. 

Try  to  make  the  conversation  table-wide,  but 
not  at  the  expense  of  your  lungs.  Loud  and 
boisterous  talking  is  frowned  upon  not  only  by 
the  College  in  general  but  also  by  those  tables 
nearest  yours.  You'll  want  to  be  attentive  and 
reverent  during  the  blessing  especially. 

Don't  forget  that  your  waitress,  while  she  is 
interested  in  your  health  and  well-being,  has 
classes  and  obligations  of  her  own.  She'll  appre- 
ciate your  consideration  in  getting  to  and  from 
meals  on  time. 

Your  guests  may  eat  in  the  dining  hall  by 
arranging  with  the  Dietician.  Prices  for  break- 
fasts are  25c  all  Vv^eek;  lunch  costs  60c  on 
weekdays,  75c  on  Sundays;  dinner  is  60c  Mon- 
day through  Friday,  and  supper  is  35c  on  Sat- 
urday and  Sunday  night.s 


—21  — 


A  IS  FOR  ATTENDANCE 


Although  you  are  allowed  a  certain  number  of 
"cuts"  from  classes,  Chapel,  Sunday  School  and 
Church,  it  would  be  a  good  idea  not  to  miss  any 
more  than  you  feel  really  necessary. 

You  are  advised  to  keep  a  careful  personal 
record  of  all  your  cuts.  This  way,  you  will  know 
when  you  are  about  to  cvercut,  which  is  a  very 
handy  thing  to  know. 

The  College  will,  of  course,  excuse  you  for 
illness  or  other  emergency  upon  written  request 
to  the  Personnel  Office.  This  request  must  be 
submitted  to  the  main  office  within  two  days 
after  you  return  to  classes.  You  are  to  notify  the 
Head  of  the  Dormitory  of  any  situation  which 
requires  your  absence  from  class.  No  excuse  will 
be  given  unless  you  do  this. 

You  will  also  be  excused  for  any  authorized 
activity,  such  as  scheduled  trips  for  members  of 
the  debate  squad,  ball  teams,  choir,  etc. 

Below,  you  will  find  the  number  of  allowed 
cuts  for  each  class  or  service  listed,  and  below 
that,  you  will  find  the  penalties  for  overcutting. 
Read  them  carefully  and  get  them  well  in  mind. 
There  is  a  chart  on  the  next  page  you  may  use 
to  keep  a  record  of  your  cuts,  if  you  wish.

FROM  YOUR  STUDENT  BODY  PRESIDENT 


Hello,  Students, 

Once  again  we  look  forward  to  all  the  activi- 
ties and  experiences  which  another  year  at  Mary- 
ville  brings.  For  some  of  you  it  is  the  first  year. 
To  you,  the  rest  of  us  extend  a  hearty  welcome 
and  hope  that  your  college  career  may  be  a 
happy  and  successful  one.  We  stand  ready  to 
help  you  in  any  way  we  can. 

On  the  next  few  pages  you  will  find  the 
student  body  constitution,  newly  revised  during 
the  past  year.  It  would  be  well  worth  reading 
for  an  understanding  of  how  your  student  gov- 
ernment operates.  Many  new  ideas  have  been 
tried  during  the  past  year,  and  many  more  will 
be  experimented  with  this  year.  Let  us  know 
what  you  think  as  these  ideas  are  advanced;  for 
whatever  action  the  council  takes,  it  does  so  be- 
lieving that  such  is  best  for  our  entire  college 
community. 

Please  don't  think  of  the  council  as  just  an- 
other organization  on  the  campus.  It  is  your 
organization.  Your  best  interest  is  the  sole 
purpose  for  its  even  functioning.  Under  the  new 
representation  plan,  every  student  has  two  or 
three  channels  through  which  to  present  ideas  or 
problems  to  the  council.  Please  use  them  that 
we  may  fulfill  our  purpose  which  is  "to  unify 
the  student  body  in  the  common  motive  of  self- 
government  in  order  to  assum.e  responsibility  in 
the  management  of  our  affairs,  strengthen  the 
cooperation  between  students,  faculty,  and  ad- 
ministration, and  increase  loyalty  to  the  best 
interests  of  the  college." 

Sincerely, 

Bill  Nish

WSGA 

Since  1946  the  women  students  on  campus 
have  carried  important  responsibilities  through 
their  Women's  Student  Government  Association. 
Based  upon  a  constitution  worked  out  coopera- 
tively by  faculty  and  student  representatives,  the 
Association  has  made  splendid  progress  in  devel- 
oping high  morale  and  effective  management  in 
the  women's  dormitories. 

WSGA  makes  the  rules  and  enforces  them 
within  the  dormitories.  Light  cuts,  care  of  equip- 
ment and  rooms,  and  student  conduct  come  un- 
der their  rules.  Cooperating  with  the  dormitory 
Heads,  WSGA  house  chairmen  and  officers 
handle  student  and  dormitory  problems. 

Even  at  Maryville  there  are  those  girls  who 
do  not  always  choose  to  dwell  within  the  laws 
made  for  them.  Sometimes  when  a  wrong  is 
done,  it  is  best  friend  who  inflicts  the  penalty 
for  breaking  that  rule  upon  best  friend.  This  is 
one  of  the  hardest  parts  of  a  student  government. 
This  year  you  are  a  part  of  WSGA,  for  the  first 
time  if  you  are  a  freshman.  It  is  almost  an  im- 
possibility for  it  to  exist  without  your  help,  so 
work  with  your  WSGA  officers  and  remember 
that  they're  just  as  human  as  you.

FROM  YOUR  WSGA  PRESIDENT 

Hello  here! 

It  is  time  now  for  a  new  year:  a  new  year  of 
learning  and  growing,  a  year  of  living  together 
as  roommate  and  dormmates. 

This  may  be  a  new  experience  for  some  of 
you,  and  you  will  find  it  a  valuable  part  of  your 
college  life,  while  to  others  it  will  be  an  old  story. 
We  will  look  to  your  cheerfulness  and  coopera- 
tion for  assisting  us  during  the  school  year,  and 
particularly  the  first  few  weeks. 

With  all  the  other  wonderful  things  you  will 
find  on  "The  Hill"  one  of  the  most  lasting  will  be 
the  friendships  you  make  in  the  dormitory.  This 
is  an  advantage  that  dormitory  has  over  non- 
dormitory  living.  We  hope  you  will  take  this 
opportunity  and  use  it  wisely.  Your  house  chair- 
man will  be  happy  to  receive  suggestions  and 
questions  and  will  be  glad  to  help  you  attain  the 
most  benefit  from  dormitory  and  college  life. 

Sincerelj''  yours, 

Ginni  Schwarz

the  residents  of  the  house  at  the  beginning  of  each 
semester  shall  be  collected  by  the  House  Committee 
for  operating  exepenses. 

BY-LAW   NO.    2 — Senior    Privileges 

The  proposal  is  that  senior  women  shall  have  several 
privileges  not  possessed  by  underclass  women.  The 
purpose  is  to  give  students,  upon  attaining  the  classifi- 
cation of  senior,   open  recognition  of  rank. 

The   provisions    are    as    follows : 

1.  Each  senior  woman  may  have  a  second  Town 
Night  each  week  with  the  same  rules  in  effect  as 
stated  in  the  Student  Council  Town  Night  proposal. 

a.  Monitors   shall  be  on   duty  each  night. 

1)  Monitor  duty  will  be  voluntary  to  a  cer- 
tain extent,  after  which  it  will  arbitrarily  be  assigned 
from    an    alphabetical    list    of    senior    women. 

2)  It  will  be  necessary  to  have  only  one 
monitor  on  duty  each  night  if  she  has  a  date.  Otherwise 
a  girl  must  be  in  a  group  of  three  girls.  The  assign- 
ment sheet  will  be  posted  several  days  beforehand  so 
that  the  proper   arrangements   can  be  made. 

3)  On  the  nights  when  no  girls  sign  out 
before  nine  o'clock  it  will  not  be  necessary  for  monitors 
to  be  on  duty.  If  a  group  of  girls  decides  to  go  after 
nine  o'clock,  one  of  the  girls  in  the  group  will  act 
as  monitor. 

4)  Those  girls  who  do  not  wish  to  cooperate 
in   the   monitor   system   will   not   receive   the   privileges. 

5)  It  shall  be  the  duty  of  monitors  to  report 
to  Executive  Committee  of  WSGA  all  underclass  women 
taking  privileges  set  aside  for  senior  women,  and  all 
senior  women  infringing  upon  provisions  of  senior 
privileges. 

2.  On  the  second  Town  Night  (other  than  Tuesday) 
dating  in  Knoxville  will  be  permitted  senior  women 
provided  they  report  back  to  their  dormitories  by  eight 

—48—. 


thirty  p.  m.  Groups  of  three  or  more  women  may  have 
the  same  privilege.  Only  bus  transportation  is  ap- 
proved. 

3.  Senior  women  shall  also  have  the  privilege  of 
dating  on  Sunday  afternoon  from  three  o'clock  until 
the  supper  hour.  They  shall  be  allowed  to  date  on 
campus,  walk  in  the  residential  section  of  the  city, 
and  sign  up  for  parlor  dates.  Groups  of  couples  may 
walk  in  the  College  Woods  or  around  the  seven-mile 
loop. 

It  shall  be  the  duty  of  the  Executive  Committee 
of  WSGA  to  impose  or  recommend  the  following  penal- 
ties: 

A.  Infringments  by  senior  women  of  any  of  the 
above  provisions  will  result  in  suspension  of  all  senior 
privileges  for  four  months. 

B.  Any  underclass  women  taking  privileges  without 
permission  set  aside  for  senior  women  shall  be  reported 
by  senior  women  to  whom  privileges   are  allowed. 

1.  Underclass  women  in  town  on  any  night  except 
Tuesday  night  without  special  permission  from  the 
Dean  of  Women  or  the  house  mother  shall  forfeit  the 
Tuesday  Town  Night  privilege  for  four  months  of  the 
school  year. 

2.  The  infraction  by  underclass  women  of  the  senior 
privileges  of  dating  in  Knoxville,  unless  authorized  to 
be  there,  and  Sunday  afternoon  dating  shall  result  in 
a  suspension  of  their  Tuesday  Town  Night  for  four 
months  of  the  school  year. 

3.  It  shall  be  the  duty  of  the  Executive  Committee 
of  WSGA  to  withdraw  any  or  all  privileges  of  a  student 
who  does  not  live  up  to  the  general  standards  or  prin- 
ciples or  whose  conduct  is  unseemly.

MEN'S  STUDENT  ORGANIZATION 


Relatively  new  in  the  College  organizational 
system  is  the  Men's  Student  Organization.  In 
1948  MSO  was  planned  and  formed  for  the 
main  purpose  of  representing  all  college  men  in 
Student  Council  and  Student-Faculty  Senate. 

Since  then  this  growing  organization  is  assum- 
ing more  and  more  duties  of  importance  to 
student  men.  In  addition  to  representation  it 
plays  an  important  role  in  responsibilities  con- 
cerning new  students  and  the  management  of 
the  men's  dormitories. 

All  men  students  automatically  become  mem- 
bers of  MSO  upon  entering  Maryville  College. 
True  representation  cf  campus  m.en  cannot  be 
possible  unless  all  men  join  in  with  the  best 
spirit  of  the  program.

FROM  YOUR  MSO  CHAIRMAN 


Welcome,  Fellows: 

Two  years  ago  the  fellows  of  Maryville  College 
decided  that  their  group  was  not  adequately  rep- 
resented in  the  student  government  and  organ- 
ized themselves  into  the  Men's  Student  Organi- 
zation of  Maryville  College.  Since  that  time 
representatives  of  the  men  students  in  the  dorm- 
itory, temporarily  off-campus,  and  town  resi- 
dents, have  presented  the  point  of  view  of  our 
group  on  Student  Council,  in  the  Student-Faculty 
Senate,  and  in  other  phases  of  the  student  gov- 
ernment. 

You  new  fellows  will  want  to  become  ac- 
quainted with  your  representative  of  MSO;  it's 
his  job  to  uphold  your  interests  in  student  body 
affairs,  as  stated  in  our  constitution. 

Though  fairly  recent  in  organization,  MSO  has 
tried  to  plan  fairly  and  adequately  for  the  men 
students;  in  the  coming  year  we'd  like  to  see 
more  of  our  plans  come  into  action.  That  can 
only  come  through  your  help,  your  backing, 
and  your  ideas. 

Best  of  opportunities  in  the  coming  year! 

Sincerely  yours, 

Ray  Holsey

Y  IS  FOR  CHRISTIANITY 


// 


/ 


/ 


/ 


e^ 


YMCA  and  YWCA  as  they  stand  here  are  two 
groups  of  letters — all  of  equal  importance;  but 
the  theme  of  this  year's  Y  program  is  "get  the 
center  right."  Now,  let's  change  the  letters  with 
emphis  on  the  center — ymCa  and  ywCa.  Al- 
though the  organi- 
zations are  separate 
they  both  stand  for 
the  sam.e  thing  — 
Christianity  through 
leadership  and  fel- 
lowship. 

Each  Sunday  af- 
terncon  shortly  after 
lunch  the  Y's  meet, 
sometimes  separate- 
ly and  sometimes 
jointly,  for  a  brief 
worship  s  e  r  V  ic  e 
through  many  dif- 
ferent mediums  planned  by  the  worship  com- 
mittees. 

The  Y's  are  two  of  the  most  important  organ- 
izations on  campus.  Each  year  they  sponsor 
various  all-campus  programs  separately  and 
combine  to  furnish  you  with  the  M  Book  and 
the   "Y"   Store. 

The  Y  kitchen  is  a  place  where  you  can  go 
and  prepare  food  for  a  party  you  are  having  in 
the  YW  rooms  or  you  can  go  when  you  get  a 
sudden  longing  to  smell  cookies  or  a  cake  baking 
in  an  oven. 

Although  you're  already  a  member  of  Y,  you 
will  be  given  an  opportunity  to  become  an  active 
mem-ber.  The  Y's  urge  you  to  take  that  pledge 
and  join  them  in  "getting  the  center  right"  this 
year.

FROM  YOUR  YWCA  PRESIDENT 


Hello  Gals, 

It's  so  good  to  have  j^ou  with  us  at  Maryville. 
We  sincerely  hope  you  will  grow  to  love  the 
College  and  its  traditions  as  much  as  we  do. 

Among  the  organizations  which  impress  you 
first  when  you  arrive  is  the  YWCA.  We  feel 
its  program  is  the  most  far-reaching  on  the 
campus.  Through  mission  work,  Barnwarming, 
parties,  hikes,  and  Sunday  afternoon  programs, 
YW  seems  able  to  help  everyone  "Get  the  Center 
Right." 

This  will  be  a  good  year  in  YW,  but  it  will  be 
very  good  if  you  will  help  us  and  let  us  help 
you. 

Most  sincerely, 

Dorothy  Holverton, 

President  YWCA

FROM  YOUR  YMCA  PRESIDENT 


Greetings  Men! 

The  YMCA  takes  pleasure  in  welcoming  you 
to  Maryville  College.  We  stand  ready  to  serve 
you  in  any  way  we  can  to  help  make  your  stay 
on  the  Hill  a  happy  and  prosperous  one. 

The  purpose  of  the  Y  is  to  minister  to  the 
needs  of  body,  mind,  and  spirit  of  young  men. 
Such  an  organization  plays  a  vital  part  on  a 
college  campus  where  many  men  are  for  the  first 
time  living  away  from  their  homes  and  churches. 
Therefore,  when  we  plan  our  work  for  the  year, 
we  try  to  make  a  place  in  Y  for  every  man.  If 
you  would  like  to  help  in  leading  the  service  at 
prayer  meeting,  the  Devotion  and  Discussion 
committee  would  like  to  see  you.  On  the  other 
hand,  if  your  talents  lie  in  the  field  of  athletics, 
there  is  a  place  for  you  on  one  or  more  of 
our  intramural  teams.  (Incidentally,  last  year 
the  Y  won  two  championships  in  intramurals.) 

Very  shortly  after  school  opens  in  the  fall, 
the  old  members  officially  welcome  the  new 
men  on  the  campus  at  the  watermelon  pow-wow. 
Then  later  in  the  semester  we  go  on  the  annual 
hike  in  the  Great  Smoky  Mountains  National 
Park,  so  be  sure  to  bring  your  mountain  climb- 
ing shoes  to  Maryville  with  you. 

We  earnestly  look  forward  to  your  arrival  and 
hope  to  welcome  you  all  into  membership  in  the 
YMCA. 

Sincerely, 

Bill  Chalker 

President  YMCA

JL-TRA  CURRICULAR 

While  Maryville  College  puts  its  major  em- 
phasis, naturally  enough,  on  scholastic  standing, 
you'll  want  to  be  active  in  a  few  extra-curricular 
fields  too.  We  warn  you — you'll  be  tempted  to 
join  all  the  fascinating  clubs  and  organizations 
the  campus  boasts.  But  book  learning  comes 
first;  better  still,  find  a  happy  balance  between 
grades  and  activities.  You'll  find  enough  of  both 
to  satisfy  you;  and,  while  our  hospital  is  cool 
and  comfortable,  it  isn't  run  as  a  rest  home  for 
exhausted  activity  hounds. 

We  hope  you'll  find  activities  that  will  make 
the  most  of  your  time  and  interests.  Efforts  and 
enthusiasm  wear  better  and  are  more  appreciated 
when  they're  concentrated.  If  you  budget  your 
time  wisely,  you'll  have  not  only  good  grades 
but  also  an  important  place  in  campus  life. 

ORGANIZATIONS 

Alpha  Gamma  Sigma 

Alpha  Gamma  Sigma  is  Maryville's  honor 
society  similar  to  Phi  Beta  Kappa  in  scholarship 
standards.  Ten  percent  of  graduating  seniors 
may  be  admitted  to  this  organization  provided 
that  the  members  have  a  grade  point  ratio  of  6.5 
which  is  somewhat  more  than  a  B  average. 
Pi  Kappa  Delta 

Speech  arts  organization  of  Maryville  is  Pi 
Kappa  Delta,  representing  Tennessee  Alpha 
Chapter  of  National  Honorary  Forensic  Fratern- 
ity. Its  purpose  is  to  stimulate  interest  in  inter- 
collegiate oratory,  debate,  and  public  speaking. 
Deserving  members  of  this  organization  are 
awarded  various  degrees  of  merit  according  to 
rank  and  achievement.  Each  year  the  debate 
squads,  varsity  and  freshmen,  attain  high  po- 
sitions in  national  and  local  tournaments. 

—60— 


Sigma  Delta  Psi 

Sigma  Delta  Psi  is  an  athletic  society  in  which 
membership  is  attained  by  the  successful  com- 
pletion of  various  athletic  tests  in  the  presence 
of  a  responsible  committee. 

Theta  Alpha  Phi 

Student  dramatists  upon  achieving  member- 
ship requirements  may  belong  to  Maryville's 
Tennessee  chapter  of  the  national  honorary  dra- 
matic fraternity,  Theta  Alpha  Phi.  Members  of 
this  organization  take  a  leading  part  in  dramatic 
activities  on  campus. 

Pi  Gamma 

Pi  Gamma  is  a  YW  sponsored  organization  for 
women  town  students  through  which  town  and 
dormitory  students  meet  and  become  better  ac- 
quainted with  each  other.  Many  luncheons  are 
given  throughout  the  year,  and  you'll  probably 
be  invited  to  at  least  one  of  them  if  you're  a 
dorm  girl. 

Student   Volunteers 

Student  Vols  is  part  of  a  national  movement 
for  students  to  promote  interest  in  missionary 
work  and  the  mission  fields.  Regular  meetings 
are  held  each  Sunday  night  after  Vespers,  usu- 
ally in  Bartlett  auditorium.  Interesting  programs 
concerning  various  phases  of  missions  are 
planned  for  the  meetings,  and  whenever  possible, 
missionaries  are  invited  to  speak  to  the  group. 
Parish  Project 

If  you  are  vitally  interested  in  local  Christian 
mission  service,  you'll  want  to  join  Parish  Pro- 
ject. This  organization  is  sponsored  and  sup- 
ported jointly  by  the  Board  of  National  Missions, 
the  Board  of  Christian  Education,  Maryville  Col- 
lege, and  New  Providence  Presbyterian  Church. 
Students  who  apply  and  are  accepted  perform 
such  duties  as  Sunday  School  teaching  and  ad- 
ministration, teaching  weekday  Bible  classes  in  a

\/  for    students    plan- 

ning to  become  min- 
isters and  for  those  interested  in  other  phases  of 
Christian  ministry,  the  Ministerial  Association 
has  become  one  of  the  most  vital  and  active 
religious  groups  on  campus.  This  organization 
sponsors  prayer  meetings  on  campus,  preaching 
and  pastoral  work  in  the  county  jail,  and  many 
other  services,  including  work  at  local  missions 
and  rural  churches. 

Writer's  Workshop 
Literary  interest  and  achievemxent  are  the 
basis  for  membership  in  Writer's  Workshop. 
Members  are  elected  from  the  junior  and  senior 
classes.  Each  member  writes  and  presents  to 
the  group  two  papers  each  year  for  criticism  and 
in  turn  serves  as  literary  critic. 

CLUBS 

Bainonian 

Varied  activities  and  friendships  highlight  the 
program  of  Bainonian  Society.  Soon  after  school 
starts  Bainonian  joins  with  her  brother  society

Freshman  "rushees"  get  green  and  white  beanies 
and   membership   in   a   Greek-letter  chapter   of

this  friendly  society.    Weekly  meetings  through 
the  year  are  held  in  Bainonian  Hall.

Kush  Week  program,  which  is  presented  in  co- 
operation with  Alpha  Sigma,  its  brother  society, 
and  its  weekly  meetings  during  the  year,  it 
stresses  good  times  and  lasting  friendships 
among  its  members  and  among  those  of  the 
other  societies.

Athenian 

Lasting  friendships  are  made  in  Athenian 
Society,  oldest  society  on  the  campus.  College 
men  appreciate  a  society  that  brings  them  a 
varied  and  interesting  social  program  and  also 
active  participation  in  the  College's  intramural

International  Relations  Club 

Well-informed  speakers,  forums,  discussion 
groups,  and  movies  highlight  the  semi-monthly 
meetings  of  International  Relations  Club  on  the 
campus.  Affiliated  internationally  through  the 
Carnegie  Endowment  for  International  Peace, 
the  College  club  and  its  hundreds  of  brother 
clubs  seek  to  interest  college  students  in  current 
affairs  and  international  problems  which  must 
be  solved  to  secure  peaceful  civilization.  To  en- 
gage in  the  transaction  of  club  business  and  be 
eligible  for  its  officer  ship  one  must  join  at  the

urged  to  attend  and  participate  in  the  discussions

Pre-Med  Club 

For  all  those  College  men  and  women  prepar-

ing and  medical  technology — the  Pre-Med  Club 
offers  interesting  programs  and  a  chance  to  dis- 
cuss both  with  other  students  in  your  field  and

and  nurses,  movies  of  medical  information,  and

French,  you  may  well  look  forward  to  member- 
ship in  the  French  Club.  Composed  of  thirty 
members  who  are  taking  advanced  French  and 
also  qualify  by  scholarship  and  interest,  this  club 
features  semi-monthly  programs  of  French  songs, 
games,  movies  and  plays,  and  holds  an  annual 
social  affair.  The  French  Club  offers  educational 
and  recreational  opportunities  for  you  if  you're 
so  minded. 

German  Club 

The  German  Club  accepts  as  members  all  Col- 
lege men  and  women  who  are  interested  in  Ger- 
man culture,  regardless  of  whether  or  not  they

a  month  the  club  presents  interesting  programs 
to  stimulate  interest  and  arouse  participation  in 
different  phases  of  German  culture. 
Spanish  Club 

Entertaining  but  informative  programs  with 
a  Spanish  theme  are  presented  twice  monthly 
by  the  Spanish  Club.  Not  only  the  language  but 
also  the  customs  and  culture  of  Spanish-speak- 
ing countries  come  in  for  discussion  and  comment 
by  club  members,  who  are  elected  from  members 
of  the  Spanish  classes.    Club  plans  include  the 

—64— 


annual  outdoor  picnic  and  the  Christmas  party- 
featuring  the  Spanish  pinata. 

"M"  Club 
Girls,  if  you're  sports  minded  and  athletically 
inclined,  you  can  win  membership  in  the  "M" 
Club  by  earning  400  or  more  points  in  the  Point 
System.  The  Point  System  leads  to  both  good 
sportsmanship  and  "M"  Club  m-embership.  Be- 
sides their  two-hour-a-week  Point  System  par- 
ticipation, club  members  meet  monthly  for  busi- 
ness discussions  and  hike  annually  for  a  week- 
end in  the  Smokies. 

Art  Club 

If  you're  artistically  minded,  membership  is 
open  for  you  in  the  Art  Club.  Sketching  parties, 
trips  to  various  arts  exhibits,  movies,  and  lectures 
by  professionals  in  the  field  of  art  are  highlighted 
in  its  programs.  Various  exhibits  which  come  to 
the  College  for  display  in  Lamar  Library  are 
also  arranged  by  this  small  but  active  club. 

Camera  Club 

"Hold  that  pose — got  you!"  And  you're  snapped 
by  an  enthusiastic  member  of  the  Camera  Club. 
Besides  its  meetings  to  discuss  photography  as 
a  hobby  and  a  profession,  the  club  has  its  own 
darkroom  in  Bartlett  Hall  which  its  members 
may  use.  Organized  in  1946,  the  club  continues 
to  grow  and  to  develop  its  members'  abilities. 

Disc  Club 

In  1936  a  group  of  lovers  of  good  music  organ- 
ized the  Disc  Club  to  encourage  music  apprecia- 
tion on  the  Hill.  Well-planned  half-hour  pro- 
grams of  music,  accompanied  by  appropriate 
comments  by  an  interested  student  or  faculty 
member,  are  presented  twice  monthly  after  the 
evening  meal.  There  are  no  officers,  no  dues — 
if  you  like  good  music  you'll  want  to  become 
acquainted  with  the  Disc  Club.

"B.  G." 

This  exclusive  girls'  club  wouldn't  even  tell 
your  editors  what  their  secret  initials  mean! 
Originally  formed  for  hiking  purposes,  this  club 
now  has  more  varied  activities  but  has  retained 
its  eight-member  limit. 

Hig-li  Society 
The  High  Society  is  one  of  the  newest  clubs 
on  campus.  Reciuirements  for  membership  are

learns  ballet,  pantomine,  and  choreography.  The 
High  Society  appears  in  various  campus  shows; 
last  year  it  presented  outstanding  performances 
in  a  Barnwarming  sequence  and  in  a  "dream" 
dance  number  in  the  May  Day  Pageant.

N  IS  FOR  NEWS 

Mary ville  offers  several  opportunities  for  those 
interested  in  writing  to  do  some  really  creative 
work.  The  newspaper,  annual,  and  "M"  Book 
give  chances  to  feature  writers,  sports  writers, 
artists,  and  those  interested  in  other  phases  of 
journalism. 

Highland  Echo 

The  Highland  Echo  is  the  weekly  College 
newspaper.  The  staff  is  made  up  of  members 
from,  all  the  classes,  with  the  Editor  and  Business 
Manager  coming  from  the  senior  class.  Students 
may  join  the  Echo  staff  by  competitive  writing. 
The  Echo  keeps  the  students  well  informed  of 
College  affairs  as  well  as  a  bit  of  the  world 
situation. 

Chiihowean 

The  Chiihowean  is  the  annual  year-book  which 
is  published  by  members  of  the  junior  class.  It 
gives  a  pictorial  coverage  of  the  year's  happen- 
ings as  well  as  pictures  of  nearly  all  the  students 
grouped  by  classes.  The  editor,  business  man- 
ager, and  their  staffs  work  many  long  hours  on 
this  publication,  and  the  results  are  never  dis- 
appointing. 

Alumni  Magazine

lege and  alumni  to  former  students  of  the  Col- 
lege. It  is  published  quarterly  by  the  Alumni

YMCA  and  YWCA  and  is  the  official  College

regulations,   customis,  and  activities.

D  IS  FOR  DRAMA 


I 


One  of  the  departments  most  seriously  affected 
by  the  loss  of  our  Chapel  in  the  big  fire  two  years 
ago  has  been  the  Dramatics  Department.  Cos- 
tumes, scenery — net  to  mention  that  big,  beauti- 
ful stage! — went  up  in  smoke,  and  productions 
since  then  have  had  to  start  from  scratch — and  a 
meager  scratch,  at  that. 

This  year  three  major  plays  will  be  presented 
under  a  new  plan  which  has  not  yet  been  com- 
pleted in  time  for  publication.  Formerly  pro- 
duced by  Societies,  this  year  the  casts  and  crewb 
of  the  three-acters  will  be  open  to  all  try-outs 
frcm  the  student  body.  Plays  will  be  presented 
this  year  in  Alumni  Gym.  Former  MC  stage  hits 
have  been  "Dear  Ruth,"  "Papa  Is  All,"  "The 
Merchant  of  Venice,"  and  "Wuthering  Heights." 

Besides  the  three-acters.  Experimental  Theatre 
puts  on  monthly  one-act  plays  in  groups  of  two 
on  the  stage  in  Bartlett  Hall.  "Stars  are  made, 
not  born,"  and  the  groundw^ork  budding  young 
Barrymores  get  from  Experimental  Theatre  paves 
the  way  to  future  BIG  rcles. 

Saturday  night  programs  under  the  auspices  of 
the  Social  Board  v^/ill  occasionally  call  for  dra- 
matic talent,  too;  last  year  saw  a  slightly  short- 
ened version  of  "HMS  Pinafore,"  and  of  course 
there's  always  May  Day  and  Rush  Week  pro- 
ductions.

M  IS  FOR  MUSIC 

If  you  have  any  musical  ability  whatsoever, 
be  it  singing,  blowing  a  tuba,  or  playing  a 
kazoo,  there  is  plenty  of  opportunity  at  Mary- 
ville  for  you  to  develop  those  talents.  The 
musical  program  for  the  year  begins  with  the 
performance  of  the  marching  band  at  the  foot- 
ball games  and  ends  with  the  choir's  final 
anthem  on  graduation  day.  Recitals  are  given 
nearly  every  week  by  the  music  majors  and  any- 
one may  attend  these. 

Faculty  recitals  are  presented  from  time  to 
time.  Band  and  orchestra  concerts  are  also  given 
at  least  once  a  year. 

A  Capella  Choir 

This  group  provides  good  training  and  real 
pleasure  for  those  who  are  interested  in  singing. 
It  is  composed  of  about  sixty  members  who  inust 
pass  rigid  try-cuts  before  they  are  accepted.  The 
group  participates  in  the  weekly  Vesper  services 
and  the  daily  Chapel  programs  as  well  as  pre- 
senting special  programs  in  Maryville  and  sur- 
rounding cities. 

All   Girl   Choir 

This  group  is  composed,  oddly  enough,  entirely 
of  girls,  who  are  admitted  through  try-outs  each- 
semester.  The  group,  about  fifty-six  in  number, 
sometimes  relieves  the  A  Capella  Choir  at  Ves- 
per services  and  presents  other  programs  in 
Maryville  and  adjoining  cities.  In  the  spring., 
the  girls  join  with  the  Men's  Glee  Club  and 
present  one  of  the  big  campus  programs  of  the 
year. 

Men's  Glee  Club 

After  several  years  of  inactivity,  the  Men's 
Glee  Club  was  reorganized  two  years  ago  and 
has  enjoyed  considerable  success.  The  member- 
ship consists  of  about  forty  boys,  but  additional 


-69- 


members  may  come  in  via  try-outs  each  semes- 
ter. In  the  spring,  the  fellows  and  the  All-Girl 
Choir  present  a  program  called  "Springtime 
Serenade,"  consisting  of  popular  and  semi-class- 
ical numlDers  from  well-known  musicals,  which 
has  become  one  of  the  highlights  of  the  spring 
term. 

Band 

Those  students  who  enjoy  playing  a  musical 
instrument  are  urged  to  try  out  for  the  college 
marching  band.  The  band,  numbering  about 
fifty  pieces,  plays  for  all  the  home  football 
games  and  takes  one  one-of-town  trip  with  the 
team.  For  sophomores,  the  marching  practice 
takes  the  place  of  the  intramural  requirement. 
When  football  season  is  over,  the  marching  band 
reorganizes  as  a  concert  band.  You  don't  have  to 
be  in  one  to  get  in  the  other,  although  you  would 
be  welcomed.  The  concert  band  gives  an  out- 
door concert  during  the  last  few  days  before 
commencement. 

Orchestra 

For  those  who  prefer  their  music  a  bit  more 
classical,  the  college  orchestra  has  a  place.  Due 
to  the  chapel  fire,  which  destroyed  many  of 
the  instruments,  the  orchestra  has  been  reor- 
ganized only  a  few  years.  It  has  grown  rapidly, 
however,  and  is  now  back  to  its  pre-fire  standard. 
The  group,  each  year,  accompanies  the  "Messiah" 
and  gives  one  or  two  concerts  annually. 
Tau  Kappa  Chi 

Tau  Kappa  Chi  is  a  musical  organization  for 
the  women  of  the  College  who  are  either  music 
majors  or  interested  applied  music  students.  Its 
purpose  is  to  promote  student  and  community 
interest  in  music.  The  aims  are  to  raise  the  gen- 
eral academic  standard  of  the  music  department; 
to  provide  a  goal  for  all  students  interested  in 
music;  and  to  promote  thoroughly  trained  mu- 
sicianship and  further  the  understanding  of  all 
types  of  music.

S  IS  FOR  SPORTS 


Every  American  boy  has,  at  one  time  or  an- 
other, dreamed  of  being  a  star  in  some  sport. 
At  Maryville,  there  is  every  chance  of  making 
that  dream  a  reality.  Maryville  is  very  active 
in  intercollegiate  athletics  and  also  maintains  a 
well  organized  intramural  sports  program  for 
those  who  wish  to  participate.  For  the  girls, 
there  is  a  well-developed  point  system  whereby 
girls  may  earn  a  sweater  with  a  "M"  on  it  or 
an   "MC"  monogram. 

Maryville's  Athletic  Policy 

Maryville  stands  for  a  well-rounded,  Vv^ell- 
developed  college  life.  The  College  understands 
that  one  must  develop  physically  as  well  as 
mentally  and  morally,  and  fcr  that  reason  places 
an  emphasis  on  athletics  of  all  kinds.  Besides 
being  well  represented  in  intercollegiate  athletics, 
the  College  also  sponsors  an  intramural  program 
for  men  and  a  point  system  for  girls. 

Maryville  does  not  buy  her  athletes.  Those 
w^ho  come  here  do  so  v/ith  the  understanding 
that  places  en  the  teams  are  earned  by  physical 
abilities  and  acceptable  scholarship;  nothing  else. 
In  addition,  physical  prowess  alone  doesn't 
"make"  a  student  at  Maryville.  Scholastic  ability 
and  ''all-'roundness"  count,  too. 

Athletic   Association 

The  Athletic  Association  is  composed  of  the 
entire  study  body  and  faculty  of  Maryville  Col- 
lege. Its  purpose  is  to  work  i^  cooperation  with 
the  Department  of  Athletics  of  the  College  for 
the  furtherance  of  desirable  conditions  in  that 
field.  Each  spring  an  Executive  Board  (com- 
monly called  the  Athletic  Board  of  Control)  is 
elected  to  act  for  the  Association.  This  Board 
is  composed  of  a  president,  vice  president,  secre- 


tary,  and  three  boys,  two  girls,  and  two  faculty 
members  as  representatives.  The  Director  of 
Athletics  is  an  ex-officio  member  of  the  Board. 
The  Board  performs  such  functions  as  electing 
managers  for  athletic  teams,  and  making  awards 
to  members  and  managers  of  these  teams  as  well 
as  to  cheerleaders  and  "point-system"  girls. 

You  are  urged  to  take  part  in  the  activities 
of  the  Athletic  Association  whether  or  not  your 
interests  are  in  that  direction. 

Intercollegiate  Athletics 

Athletics  at  Maryville  have  been  taking  great 
strides  forward  since  the  war.  Before  the  war, 
Maryville  was  known  throughout  the  South  for 
her  strength  in  minor  sports.  Now,  however,  we 
are  enjoying  a  little  more  prestige  in  the  field 
of  major  sports  than  was  formerly  accorded  us. 

Excellent  records  in  football,  basketball,  and 
baseball  have  accounted  for  our  major  sport 
recognition.  Teams  in  cross-country,  track, 
swimming,  and  wrestling  have  all  given  a  good 
account  of  themselves.  An  undefeated  tennis 
team  also  adds  greatly  to  our  sporting  laurels. 
We  hope  to  hold  on  to  the  laurels  we  have  won 
and  to  accumulate  a  few  more  in  the  coming 
year.  Let's  all  get  behind  our  teams  and  sup- 
port them,  win  or  lose,  because  school  spirit  is 
part  of  Maryville's  athletic  program  too. 

Intramural 

The  intramural  program  gives  Maryville  men 
and  women  a  chance  to  participate  in  various 
non-varsity  sports  for  good  fellowship,  vigerous 
competition,  and  physical  fitness.  Both  men  and 
women  have  a  similar  system  and  organization, 
each  with  a  Director  who  will  give  full  infor- 
mation regarding  each  program.  The  fellows 
participate  in  football,  soccer,  volleyball,  basket- 
ball, swimming,  track,  and  softball.  The  girls 
take  part  in  soccer,  volleyball,  basketball,  swim- 

—72— 


ming,  tennis,  and  softball.  The  intramural  pro- 
gram includes  the  regular  physical  education 
classes  for  sophomores,  two  hours  each  week  of 
participation  being  required.  Although  not  re- 
quired of  juniors  and  seniors,  many  of  the  upper 
classmen  actively  take  part  in  the  fun  and  rec- 
reation which  these  sports  provide. 

Point  System 

As  at  most  colleges,  there  are  no  longer  inter- 
collegiate contests  for  women  at  Maryville.  For 
them  has  been  substituted  the  Point  System. 
Participation  in  the  different  sports  qualifies  a 
girl  for  a  given  number  of  points.  To  those  earn- 
ing over  300  points  awards  are  made  at  the  end 
of  each  year.  Every  girl  must  walk  the  seven- 
mile  loop  twelve  times  a  year,  swim  twice  a 
month,  and  spend  an  hour  in  exercise  daily. 
Those  who  play  basketball,  soccer,  softball,  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, 
membership  on  the  squad,  managing  a  team,  and 
perfect  attendance.  The  observance  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  other  activities.

Friendliness — MC's  chief  pride  and  joy.  Recog- 
nizable by  a  cheerful  "Howdy!"  which  will 
soon  make  you  one  of  the  big  and  happy  Col- 
lege family. 

Honor  Roll — what  you're  on  if  your  last  semes- 
ter's average  was  B  or  better.  Raises  your 
reputation  and  also  the  number  of  cuts  you're 
allowed. 

Light  Cut — in  the  women's  dorms,  keeping  your 
light  on  after  11  p.  m.  Check  regulations  for 
allowances  and  rules  regarding  this. 

—75— 


Loitering — Student  Council  term  which  really 
means  you'd  better  keep  moving  on  your  way 
to  and  from  Town  Night  and  other  College 
doin's. 

Loop — comes  in  a  variety  of  sizes:  5  miles  for 
hikers,  7  miles  for  intrepid  hikers.  Also  a 
special  12  mile  or  large  economy  size  for 
exercise  faddists. 

Moonshined — state  you'll  want  to  avoid  at  all 
costs.  Means  you  and  the  gal-friend  or  boy 
friend  as  the  case  may  be,  can't  date  anybody 
for  a  stated  time.  Conduct  always  becoming 
a  lady  or  gentleman  is  good  liability  insurance 
against  this. 

Quiz — short  examination,  generally  of  the  Pop 
variety,  guaranteed  to  catch  you  by  surprise 
— and  at  a  loss,  if  you're  not  parallel  with  the 
class  schedule. 

Student  Help — includes  practically  all  students. 
Applied  to  those  who  type,  wait  tables,  assist 
teachers,  wag  mailbags,  staff  the  Library — 
and  a  host  of  other  student-filled  jobs  at  Mary- 
ville.  Ten  hours  a  week  is  an  average  sched- 
ule, and  when  the  tenth  of  the  month  brings 
pay  day  around,  a  little  extra  cash  looks 
mighty  attractive. 

Tobacco  Road — the  foot  of  the  big  Steps  where 
the  College's  regulation  against  smoking  stops. 
If  you  must  smoke,  do  it  here — but  remember, 
the  Steps  are  pretty  now,  although  they  won't 
be  long  if  obscured  by  clouds  of  smoke  and 
piles  of  cigarette  stubs. 

Welcome — a  friendly  greeting  extended  to  all  new 
guys  and  gals  and  to  all  returning  MCers; 
contains  all  the  best  wishes  for  good  luck  and 
success  in  '49-'50  and  all  years  to  come!
