Alma Mater
Where Chilhowee's lofty mountains
Pierce the southern blue,
Proudly stands our Alma Mater,
Noble, grand, and true.
Chorus
Orange, Garnet, float forever,
Ensign of our hill!
Hail to thee, our Alma Mater,
Hail to Maryville!
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 highlands!
Loud her praises sing!
On Highlanders
(Words and Music by Charles Huffman, '49)
On Highlanders down the field.
Rolling up a high score!
Tear into the end zone.
Smash on through that line,
Highlanders!
Send a rousing cheer on high
And our boys will shine,
Come on and fight, fight, fight!
Come on and fight, fight, fight!
For dear old Maryville!

DR. RALPH W. LLOYD
President of Maryville College
WELCOME FROM YOUR PRESIDENT
Each new college year brings both sadness and
joy to those of us who are charged with the con-
tinuing task of administration and teaching at
Maryville College. We always have a sense of
sadness because the seniors of last year whom
we have come to know and to value are absent.
But we find a genuine interest and joy in the
returning of those in the other classes and in the
first coming of several hundred new students.
To all who come I extend welcome and good
wishes. I hope that the college year of 1950-
1951 will be a truly successful one for the Col-
lege and for each individual associated with it.
This hope can be fulfilled only through the
earnest and wise efforts of the College and its
staff on the one hand and of students on the
other. There is a vast difference in the standards
and earnestness which different students bring to
college. In welcoming each of you I commend to
you the higher, not the lower, standards you see
among your fellow students.
The magnificent new Fine Arts Center and
other factors will make this a year of interest
and progress into which we welcome you.
RALPH WALDO LLOYD
President of Maryville College

traditions
A college campus would hardly be complete
without its own particular set of traditions.
Maryville's traditions will come to mean some-
thing special to you as they have to the rest of
us. These are the things — little and big — which
will long be remembered and cherished as repre-
senting your four college years.
When you first arrive on campus, you will
think that college consists chiefly of standing in
line. Don't be discouraged, however, for after
the first week everyone has finally stormed all
the necessary offices and has found his way into
a well-filled lecture room. One line which is
somewhat different in dress and procedure from
all the rest leads to the FACULTY RECEPTION
which is held during the first week of school.
Your dress is formal; your handshake firm (at
first, anyway); and your smile, your Ipana
brightest. Here you will meet all the faculty
whom you will soon know better as time goes on.
You will certainly know it's RUSH WEEK
when the brother and sister societies team up
to present clever programs for their respective
membership drives. Last year Theta Epsilon's
program featured Billy Rose's Diamond Horse-
shoe, complete with soft lights, sweet music, Billy
Rose and Diamond Lil. Bainonian entertained
during its Rush Week by returnng to Maryville's
Scotch ancestors for the Week of the Highland
Fling. Be sure to pledge your whole-hearted
support to one of these organizations.
It won't be long before you discover the well-
—8—
worn bit of pavement surrounding the main
campus — CIRCLE DRIVE. After the evening
meal until 7:15 (7:00 on Sundays) many enjoy
this pleasant walk.
Soon the big night of the week arrives. Tues-
day night or TOWN NITE is the time for you
and your date to go skating or bowling or to
enjoy a movie. You'll also have time for a
hamburger and French fries before signing in at
the dorm at 10:00.
On other week-day nights as well as during
the day you may get that coke and sandwich at
the STUDENT CENTER. This building houses
the attractive lounge, recreation center, and
Y-STORE which is open at various hours during
the day and night. It's also a good place to stop
on the way home from a big game or any other
Saturday night activity.
For a program of inspiration to start the new
week, attend VESPERS which is held each Sun-
day night at 7:00 in the library. A guest speaker
and the music of the outstanding Vesper Choir
closes the Sunday program with a tone of quiet
dignity and worship.
The BELL in Anderson tower would hardly
seem to be in the tradition category, but there it
belongs. Throughout the day its ringing reminds
all of meals and classes, and after each vic-
torious football game, it heralds the good news.
You will have little trouble falling into the
Maryville tradition of FRIENDLINESS. We are
all proud of this trait and wish to continue it.
Until last year the College ARTIST'S SERIES
was discontinued because of the loss of the
chapel. By using the Alumni Gym for the con-
cert hall the series of noted guest artists was
resumed. We are looking forward to another
year of outstanding performances.
On FOUNDER'S and HOMECOMING DAY a
lovely senior girl is elected to reign as queen.
—9—
Dorms are colorfully decorated to receive the
alumni who arrive in great numbers. The
morning is marked by a dignified chapel service
commemorating the College's founding, and in
the evening the Highlanders meet one of their
toughest foes on our home gridiron.
Thanksgiving day is one of general festivity
on campus. It is the time for the annual BARN-
WARMING event which is THE big show of
the fall. It is planned by both Y organizations
and features the best talent the campus can
produce. Reigning monarchs are the King and
Queen chosen from the senior class and their
attendants representing the other classes.
And then Christmas is soon here. Before
vacation everyone looks forward to the annual
presentation of Handel's MESSIAH. Yours can
be one of the hundreds of voices which present
this inspiring oratorio.
Each February the college interrupts its pro-
gram a few hours each day for a week for the
FEBRUARY MEETINGS. These religious ser-
vices are held each morning and evening and give
a renewed spiritual strength for the weeks to
come.
February also marks the College's drive for its
FRED HOPE FUND. This fund was established
as a tribute to one of Maryville's outstanding
graduates — Fred Hope who gave his life serving
in Africa. Today this fund enables one of our
fellow students to work in the foreign mission
field. You will want to contribute to this worth-
while drive.
In the interest of the WORLD STUDENT
SERVICE FUND YMCA has sponsored a MIN-
STREL SHOW each spring for the past three
years. This rollicking entertainment is enjoyed
by many each year.
The EASTER SUNRISE SERVICE held in the
— 10—
College Woods at dawn is one of true natural
beauty. As the sun peeps over the Smokies,
everyone thrills to the choir's singing "Alleluia,
Christ is Risen."
Each spring the old and new Y cabinets hold
the yearly Y RETREAT. In a picturesque moun-
tain setting these groups plan the activities for
the coming year in Y.
OPEN HOUSE is the time to see how the other
half lives. Everyone displays his room to best
advantage. This occasion is preceded by ex-
haustive house cleaning which leaves everyone
limp until the next time.
The big musical program of the spring is
SPRINGTIME SERENADE which was inaugu-
rated three years ago by the All-Girl Choir and
Men's Glee Club. Framed in a lovely stage set-
ting, these groups present a fascinating program
of musical numbers from popular operettas ac-
companied by twin pianos and Mr. Hughes at
the console of the electric organ.
Our lovely amphitheatre in the College Woods
has become a scene from Uncle Remus and Alice
in Wonderland for the annual MAY DAY PAG-
EANT. Being May Day Queen is a cherished
honor for some senior girl. Her attendants are
chosen from the other classes and reign with
her over the festivities.
COMMENCEMENT time is both happy and
sad. Classes and exams are over, but last good-
byes are difficult to say to close friends who may
not be seen for many years. After the final
services, we go away feeling it is now our
College, and we have become a part of its life
and personality just as it has also become a
part of ours.

One of the biggest adjustments you'll have to
make at college is that of living with a dorm
full of people. This will require far more
patience, understanding, and consideration than
ordinarily exercised in a home where only three
or four people are living together. Remember
that the rights of one person are limited so that
the rights of another person or a group may be
respected. In order to help you have a happy
and enjoyable dormitory life we are jotting down
a few suggestions.
You may enjoy living in a messy room, but
to your roommate and others it may be obnox-
ious. Do not wait until time for the yearly Open
House to clean up your room.
Every night many people in the dorm want
and need to do some concentrated studying.
Your consideration in observing closed study
hours, or your neighbor's ''busy signs," as well
as refraining from loud talking, door-slamming,
and hall-yelling, will be deeply appreciated.
You too will appreciate these courtesies on your
neighbor's part.
Everyone who wants to listen to a radio has
one of his own, so it won't be necessary for you
to play yours loud enough for the people down
the hall to hear.
Guests and visitors often come at the most
unexpected times. You will always want to be
properly clad when in the halls; otherwise it can
be very embarrassing for an outsider to meet
you.
— 12—
Nothing can brand you quicker than being a
perpetual "griper" or always making "catty"
remarks about the faculty or other students.
Remember sincerity and cheerfulness are *'musts"
in making and keeping friends.
Let's not forget that your "living room" in the
dorm belongs to many other people, too. Your
conduct in the parlors and public rooms should
be such that others will feel both free and wel-
come to come in at all times.
But if you are not interested in making friends,
then you'll
— Monopolize the telephone,
— Sweep dirt into the halls and leave it there,
— Wash your clothes in the bathrooms during
the "busy" hours,
— Barge into your friends' rooms during study
hours and waste their time,
— Get up earlier than most people in the morn-
ing and make a general disturbance,
— Use the ironing boards on the floors to do
your week's ironing,
— Never clean the tubs, basins, etc., after using,
— Take supplies from the medicine chest and
leave them in your room.

Meals are served in Pearsons Dining Hall
according to the following schedule:
Weekdays: 7:00 a. m., 12:30 p. m., 6:30 p. m.
Weekdays: 7:00 a. m., 12:30 p. m., 6:00 p. m.
Sundays: 8:00 a. m., 12:30 p. m., 5:30 p. m.
Your guests may eat in the dining room by
arranging with the Dietitian. Meal prices are
as follows:

Breakfast, 25c; Lunch, 60c; Dinner, 60c.
Saturdays :
Breakfast, 25c; Dinner, 60c; Supper, 35c.
Sundays :
Breakfast, 25c; Dinner, 75c; Supper, 35c.
Your tablemates, all seven of them, will appre-
ciate your appearing well-groomed and well-
mannered at meals. Take time to freshen up
a bit before meals, especially dinner. At the
table acquire a bit of ''polish" to your manners.
After all, bad table manners are not considered
cute, and it isn't difficult to say "please" and
"thank you."
Try to make conversation table-wide, but re-
member loud and boisterous talking is in poor
taste and is annoying to those at tables nearest
yours.
Your waitress has classes and obligations too,
so she will appreciate your consideration in
getting to and from meals on time.
You will want to be attentive and reverent
during the blessing.

GREETINGS FROM YOUR WSGA
PRESIDENT
Hello!
The two very best things about beginning a
new year are meeting and getting to know new
girls who come in, and greeting old students
whom you haven't seen for a whole summer, and
so I say "Hi!"
Although still considered rather new, Mary-
ville's student government program has already
become a tradition on the Hill. W.S.G.A. is a
special part of this program for girls living in
the dormitories. Through it, we have gotten
many privileges which add to the pleasure of
college. Privileges mean responsibilities, how-
ever, and for that reason W.S.G.A. becomes the
responsibility of every individual girl.
I'm sure that we can make this year one of the
most successful years yet, if we all realize that
it takes cheerfulness, cooperation, and depend-
ability on the part of every girl. By accepting
these responsibilities we can make dormitory
living one of the most pleasant aspects of college
life, and one of our most cherished memories.
Let's try.
Sincerely,
Carol Corbett,
Chairman W.S.G.A.

in these opportunities. The varied and extensive
program of YW offers a place for EVERY girl,
whatever her interests may be. Through the
Sunday afternoon worship programs, mission
work, hikes, parties, and Barnwarming, we hope
you will find your place in Y.

and cooperation as we work and worship to-
gether. Let's make this a big year for YW and
for Maryville.

Our work in the Y is rather extensive, enter-
ing into missions, radio, devotions, boys clubs,
athletics, and various other things. We want you
to find your place in some phase of our program,
and become active members of Y. One of the
best ways of adjusting to college life is to get
into an organization in which you can find a
place for personal satisfaction and for service
to others. Y is that kind of an organization.
We are looking forward to having you with
us, and w^e want to invite all of you to become
members and friends in the work of the Y this

C^xita- (^utricuic
College is the place to learn selection and dis-
crimination. Start using this principle when
choosing your extra-curricular activities. You
must not go to the extreme and join every club
that comes your way. If you do, you'll soon find
yourself all bogged down and your enthusiasm
lost in social activities as well as studies.
During your freshman year pick one or two
activities on which to concentrate your efforts.
If your grades remain high and you find time
for other activities, you'll have plenty of time
to become a member of another club later in
your college career. But remember that such
activities as working on the Echo and debating
take mere time each year. Once you have joined
a group try to stay with it through the rest of
your college life. When you become a junior or
senior you may find that you are forced to give
up something, but the least you can do is not to
substitute one club for another.
HONORARY FRATERNITIES
Pi Kappa Delta
Maryville has the distinction of having the
Tennessee Alpha Chapter of the national honor-
ary forensic fraternity, Pi Kappa Delta. Mem-
bers of this organization are awarded orders and
degrees according to rank and achievement.
Maryville participates in the Pi Kappa Delta
National and Provincial Conventions. Last year
—62-
the group won first place in men's debate at the
Provincial Convention which was held in
Athens, Georgia.
Theta Alpha Phi
Talented dramatic students may, upon meet-
ing certain requirements for membership, be
initiated into the Tennessee Delta Chapter of the
national dramatic fraternity, Theta Alpha Phi.
Members of this organization take a leading part
in dramatic activities on the campus. All stud-
ents have opportunity to try out for the plays
given by various organizations.
Sigma Delta Psi
Maryville's chapter of Sigma Delta Psi was
established in 1930. Membership is earned by
meeting the requirements of various athletic
tests in the presence of a responsible committee.
Alpha Gamma Sigma
Alpha Gamma Sigma was organized in the
spring of 1934, for the purpose of motivating
high scholarship among students. Its require-
ments are similar to those of Phi Beta Kappa.
Ten percent of the graduating class may be ad-
mitted provided the members have a grade point
ratio of 6.5 or somewhat more than a B average.
OTHER ORGANIZATIONS
Pi Gamma
Pi Gamma, sponsored by YW, is for the pur-
pose of promoting fellowship and friendship be-
tween town and dormitory girls. The Pi Gamma
girls have a luncheon every two weeks to which
they usually invite an equal number of dorm
girls. Friendships between town and dorm girls
—63—
are mutually advantageous and enjoyable. Some
of the happiest memories of college can be the
week-end that you as a dormitory girl spent in
the home of a town friend or the time you as a
town girl were invited to spend the night in the
dorm. No girl should go through college without
such an experience.
Student Volunteers
Student Vols is part of a national movement
for students who wish to promote interest in the
missionary enterprise. It is composed not only
of students who are planning to go to the field,
but also of all those who are in any way inter-
ested in missions. Regular meetings are held each
Sunday night after Vespers, usually in Bartlett
Hall. The weekly programs present interesting
aspects of the work being done on both the for-
eign and home mission fields.
Parish Project
Through the program of the Parish Project,
students participate in leadership training and
Christian service. Under the supervision of the
Department of Religion this organization is spon-
sored and supported jointly by the Board of
National Missions, the Board of Christian Edu-
cation, Maryville College, and New Providence
Presbyterian Church. Limited college credit is
given to Parish Project students who perform
such duties as Church School teaching and ad-

tivities that will build true friendships. It enters
teams in all intramural sports, and holds an-
nual weekend trips to the mountains, barbecues,
banquets, and similar activities along with its
weekly meetings which may be educational, cul-
tural, or entertaining. Each year it joins its
sister society Theta Epsilon in producing a dance
and a rush week program.
Athenian
Lasting friendships are made in Athenian so-
ciety, 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 athletic
program. Athenian joins Bainonian, its sister
society, in its annual Rush Week program and
holds weekly meetings in Bartlett Hall.
Inf-ernational Relations Club
Maryville's IRC club is affiliated internation-
ally by its purpose and program with hundreds
of other such clubs on college campuses through
its relation to the Carnegie Endowment for In-
ternational Peace. The club's main objective is
-66-
to spread interest and information on current
affairs and international problems. It seeks to
accomplish this purpose through forums, discus-
sion groups, movies, and well-informed speakers
at its semi-monthly meetings.
Pre-Med Club
To anyone who is planning to go into medicine
or nursing the Pre-Med Club offers an excellent
chance for hearing lectures on medicine and re-
lated fields from various prominent members of
those professions. Often there are student par-
ticipation programs or selected short movies.
The club meets twice a month throughout both
sem^esters and interest is the only prerequisite
to membership.
French Club
The French Club is composed of thirty mem-
bers who are taking advanced French and who
qualify for membership by scholarship and in-
terest. This club features semi-monthly programs
of French songs, games, movies, plays, and holds
an annual social affair.
German Club

sides the semi-monthly meetings the club has
—67—
annual outdoor picnic and Christmas party which
features the Spanish pinata.
"M" Club
"M" Club is the girl's athletic club of Mary-
ville College. Membership is attained by making
a total of 400 or more points through participa-
tion in what is known as Women's Varsity. Be-
sides meeting two hours a week in Women's
Varsity the members meet monthly for business
discussions and enjoy an athletic activity to-
gether. The high spot of the club's activities is
the week-end hike in the Smoky Mountains once
each semester.
Men's "M" Club
The Men's "M" Club was re-organized this
past year after a lapse of a decade or so. Mem-
bership is open to all varsity lettermen, and male
members of the coaching faculty. The purpose
of the organization is to further the bonds of
athletic brotherhood on the Maryville Campus,
to be of service to the school and the athletic
program, and to increase loyalty to the best in-
terests of the College. A club room for members
is the immediate project of the group.
Disc Club
Disc Club was organized in 1936 to encourage
music appreciation. Its organization is very in-
formal, and all students are automatically con-
sidered to be members. Half-hour programs of
music with comments by student or faculty mem-
bers are presented twice monthly after the eve-
ning meal.
-68-
Camera Club
This club has its own darkroom in Bartlett
Hall which all its members may use. It holds
meetings to discuss photography as a hobby and
a profession. Organized in 1946, the club con-
tinues to grow and to develop its members'
abilities.
Future Teachers of America
Jasper Converse Barnes Chapter of the Fu-
ture Teachers of America was organized in the
spring of 1949. All students planning to teach
are ehgible for membership in this club which
is affiliated with the National Education As-
sociation. Last year this chapter grew from 13
to 51 members which entitled it to be called a
Victorj'' Chapter in the FT A Yearbook.
B. G.
This is a small club of eight campus girls who
keep the meaning of their initials a secret. At
the end of each year two freshmen and one
sophomore are elected members. Originally or-
ganized for hiking, the club today is purely so-
cial .
High Society
Requirements for membership of this society
are that one must be a female and five feet seven
inches tall or taller. At the weekly meetings the
club learns ballet, pantomine, and choreography.
The society appears in various campus shows,
such as Barnwarming and May Day.
-69-
STUDENT PUBLICATIONS
Opportunities for creative writing are offered
through the various college publications. Many
who are interested in journalism gain valuable
experience by serving on the staff of the college
newspaper, annual, or "M" Book.
Highfand Echo
The Highland Echo is the weekly College
newspaper. The Echo staff is chosen by com-
petitive writing and is composed of members
from all classes. The Editor and Business Man-
ager are elected by the staff and are members
of the junior or senior class. The Echo keeps
the students well informed of College affairs and
includes as well a bit of the world situation.
Chilhowean
The Chilhowean is the annual year-book which
is published by members of the junior class. It
gives a vivid account in pictures of the outstand-
ing events of the year as well as individual pic-
tures of almost all of the student body. The an-
nual is one of the best means of remembering
college friends and activities for many years to
come.
Alumni Magazine
The Alumni Magazine sends news of the Col-
lege and alumni to former students of the Col-
lege. It is published quarterly by the Alumni
Office.
"M" Book
As you have already discovered, the "M"
Book is the little volume you are now reading.
It is published every year by the YMCA and
YWCA and is the official College handbook.
College rules, customs, and activities are de-
scribed within for the student's benefit.

Major Productions
Last year saw a great development in the
drama department. For the first time since the
chapel fire in 1947 aJl the major plays were pre-
sented on the campus. A stage was constructed
so that it could be erected in the Alumni Gym-
nasium for the plays and taken down quickly
after the productions.
Three outstanding types of plays were given
last year. In the fall, the chilling murder mys-
tery, "Laura" was presented. "Hedda Gabler"
was produced in March, and "Joan of Lorraine"
was the Commencement play.
Two of the major plays formerly produced by
Societies were opened last year to try-outs from
the entire student body.
Playhouse
Under the direction of the head of the drama
department the Maryville College Playhouse wdiS
started in the fall of 1949. Last season there
were 23 Players and 68 Apprentices working
toward the position of Player.
Experimental Theatre
Besides the major plays the Experimental
Theatre gives several one-act plays throughout
the year. Some of those which were given last
year in Bartlett Hall were "Gammer Gurton's
Needle," "Theatre of the Soul," and "Echo."
—71 —
Other Drama Programs
Saturday night programs often use dramatic
talent, such as last year's "Babes in Toyland,"
sponsored by the Social Board, and the annual
Easter play, sponsored jointly by YM and YW.
Then there are always May Day and Rush
Week, which need people with dramatic ability.
If you are interested in drama there will be a
place for you at Maryville.
Debate
Maryville College has been noted for out-
standing debate teams. Last year Maryville's
varsity debaters won first place in the Smoky
Mountain Tournament; in women's debate at
Tennessee State Tournament; and in men's de-
bate at Pi Kappa Delta Provincial Tournament;
and third place in both men's and women's de-
bate at South Atlantic Tournament.
Along with debating goes oratory, extempore,
after-dinner, and other individual speaking con-
tests. Maryville was awarded 4 out of the 9 in-
dividual first place trophies at the Tennessee
State Tournament.
Freshmen are given an opportunity to partici-
pate in the speech program.
If you have debated in high school, you cer-
tainly will want to go out for college debate.
However, if you have not debated before, don't
let that stop you. Several who have had no
previous experience get on the team every year.

For those with musical ability Maryville of-
fers a variety of organizations where talents may
be developed. The musical program for the year
begins with the performance of the marching
band at the football games and ends with the
choir's final anthem on graduation day. Re-
citals, which anyone may attend, are given from
time to time by applied music students and
faculty.
Vesper Choir
The Vesper Choir provides good training and
real pleasure for those who are interested in
singing. It is composed of about sixty members
who must pass rigid try-outs before they are
accepted. The group participates in the weekly
Vesper services and the daily Chapel programs
and also presents special programs in Maryville
and surrounding cities.
All Girl Choir
The fifty girls who compose this group are
selected through tryouts each semester. They
relieve the Vesper Choir at the Sunday evening
service a number of times throughout the year.
In the spring the Girls' Choir combines with the
Men's Glee Club to present "Springtime Sere-
nade."
Men's Glee Club
This group consists of about forty boys, but
additional members may come in via tryouts
-73-
each semester. In the spring the fellows and
girls present one of the outstanding programs of
the year. It consists of popular and semi-classical
numbers from well-known musicals.
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 out-of-town trip with the team. For
sophomores the marching practice takes the
place of the physical education requirement.
When football season is over, the marching band
reorganizes as a concert band which gives an
outdoor concert during the last few days before
commencement.
Orchestra
Orchestra members are admitted and placed
by tryouts each fall. They gain valuable ex-
perience in presenting two concerts of classical
numbers annually and accompaning the Messiah.
Their spring concert features an outstanding
music student playing a well-known concerto.
Tau Kappa Chi
This 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 general
accademic 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.

You can have an orange "M" to wear on your
sweater by participating in varsity sports. No
one is permitted to wear other school sweaters
at Maryville. If you want to wear a letter, there
is opportunity. Both women and men may earn
an *'M."
Maryville Athletic Policy
One must develop physically as well as men-
tally and morally. For that reason Maryville
places emphasis on all kinds of athletics. Be-
sides intercollegiate athletics the College spon-
sors an intramural program.
Maryville does not buy her athletes. Those
who participate in intercollegiate sports earn
their places on the teams by physical abilities
and acceptable scholarship.
Athletic Association
All students and faculty of Maryville College
belong to the Athletic Association. This organi-
zation works with the Department of Athletics
to help further the development of that field.
Each spring a president, vice-president, secre-
tary, three boys, two girls, and two faculty rep-
resentatives are elected to the Executive Board
which acts for the Association. The Director of
Athletics is an ex-offico member of the Board.
This Board elects managers for athletic teams,
makes awards to members and managers of
men's teams, to members of Women's Varsity,
and to the cheerleaders.
—75—
Intercollegiate Athletics
Maryville is known for her strength in minor
sports. She competes with the best colleges and
universities in the field. Last year Maryville
placed high in wrestling in the Southeastern
AAU Tournament. The cross-country team came
through the season with an excellent record.
In major sports Maryville holds her own with
colleges of the same size. She has good records
in football, basketball, and baseball. Despite the
great loss with the graduating of many G. I.'s
last year, Maryville expects to have strong teams
this year in the major sports.
Let's all get behind our teams and support
them, win or lose, because school spirit is part
of Maryville's athletic program too.
Women's Varsity
As most colleges, Maryville no longer offers
a women's intercollegiate program. Instead there
has been substituted Women's Varsity. Partici-
pation in various sports qualifies a girl for a
specific number of points. Every girl who makes
500 points earns a sweater with a "M" on it,
those earning 400 points receive a "M", and to
those who earn 300 points there is given an
"MC" monogram. All women earning 400 or
more points may become members of the "M"
Club.
Girls participating in this program must swim
twice a month, obey the health rules, and ex-
-76-
ercise daily for an hour. Those who play basket-
ball, soccer, softball, or volleyball can earn 30
points for each team they are on and 20 points
for each squad. Taking part in swimming, track,
tennis, hiking, or aerial darts can entitle a girl
to the maximum of 50 points. Additional points
are awarded for sportsmanship, perfect attend-
ance, and captain or manager of a team.
Int-ramurols
Every man and woman has a chance to par-
ticipate in non-varsity sports through the in-
tramural program which develops good char-
acter as well as physical fitness. Both men and
women have a similar system and organization.
The fellows participate in touch football, soccer,
volleyball, basketball, swimming, wrestling,
track, and softball. The girls take part in soccer,
volleyball, basketball, swimming, tennis, and
softball. This program includes two hours a
week of regular physical education required of
freshmen and sophomores. Although not re-
quired of juniors and seniors, many upper class-
men take active part in the fun and recreation
which these sports provide.
