To Alumnae
Icar Alumnae:
I hope you are already plan-
ning to join us here at East
Carolina Teachers College for
Commencement. If you have
not arranged your affairs so
that you can at least spend
Alumnae Day � Saturday,
lune 4, with us, please begin
now to make your plans.
Our Honor Classes, the
Twenty-five Year, the Ten-
vear, and the One-year, will
be entertained at the college,
where opportunity will be
given for class reunions and
"pow-wows" of all varieties.
Classes of 1913,1928,and 1937:
1 urge you to spread this news
and assist us in our attempt to
interest every member of these
particular classes in helping to
make a "grand success" of
our Honor Class reunions.
The two definite objectives
set up at the last state meet-
ing were: to sponsor the growth
of Alumnae chapters in every
section of the state; to begin to
raise a fund which will finally
become sufficient to take care
of the expenses of an Alumnae
Secretary. Some progress has
been made toward each of these
objectives. At least two new
chapters have been organized
up to this time and all chap-
ters are working to gain
funds to turn in to the State
Treasurer in June. Until our
fund reaches sufficient propor-
tions, we are grateful for the
help offered by the college.
With best wishes for our
Alumni everywhere, I am,
Sincerelly,
Luella L. Standll,
Pres, State ECTC Alumnae
Association.
Alumnae President
Mrs. Luella Staneil, of the Class
of 1914, who has served during the

THE CRITIC HELD
First Student To Enroll Here Is
Critic Teacher and Instructor
at Winthrop College
By DEANIE BOONE HASXETT
The number of alumnae doing
work in the field of supervision is
evidence that East Carolina Teach-
ers College trains teachers of
teachers as well as classroom
teachers.
Seven of the critic teachers super-
vising the student teachers this year,
either in the Training School or the
Greenville High School, hold degrees
from this college.
Eight others have in the past been
on the critic teaching staff. The
record of these and a few others
who have made reputations as super-
visors elsewhere, tells an interest-
ing story of professional achieve-
ment.
The first student to enroll when
this institution opened, who also led
the line of the first graduating class,
hence received the first diploma was
a critic teacher here in the Model
School. This was Pattie Dowell,
who took her B.S. and M.A. degrees
from Peabody College and for some
years has been doing critic teaching
and giving courses in Winthrop Col-
lege, Rock Hill, South Carolina.
She has served as president of the
ECTC Alumnae Association and was
the editor of the ECTC News Letter,
predecessor of the Teco-Echo.

Tables have turned again on the
old adage "There's nothing new un-
der the sun as Miss Mary Eleta
Campbell, graduate of 1928, is prov-
ing in the Altamont Consolidated
High School at Crossnore, N. C,
where a new course in catering to
tourist trade has been added to the
curriculum.
At the insistence of Dr. Martin
Sloop of Crossnore School and Mr.
C. C. Ford, state sanitarian, Miss
Campbell began the work some time
ago with a class of twelve girls and
eight boys who are Seniors in high
school or business students. The
naming of the course created consid-
erable excitement. Miss Campbell
says, "For want of a better name,
we called this work 'Catering to
Tourists but the boys soon dubbed
it 'Restaurant' and 'Restaurant' it
has remained
Miss Campbell explains the pur-
pose of the course thus: "Perhaps
my students and I together can give
you the desired information con-
cerning our new course, which we
planned primarily to furnish a means
of livelihood for many of our stu-
dents who are unable to go to college,
and incidentally, to make our moun-
tain section more attractive to tour-
ists and vacationists Bonnie Caf-
fey, a member of the class states,
"The two main objects of the course
are�first: to make Avery County
a magnetic attraction for tourists;
second, to train young men and wom-
en how to manage an A-Grade es-
tablishment for tourists
Miss Campbell is an experienced
teacher of Home Economics and was
thus admirably fitted to teach the
course. No textbook is used, but all
work is based on the state require-
ments of a Grade-A Cafe or tourist
home. One letter from the class tells
how they are making a text: "We
are making our textbook as we go
along and advance in the course. We
each take part and find information
on different subjects that interest us.
We outline it and then have a copy
typed for each class member to put
in his own notebook
A variety of subjects are studied
in the course. Miss Caffey says,
"To begin with, we studied 'Types
of Places Catering to Tourists that
is, hotels, boarding houses, tourist
homes and camps, lunchrooms, tea-
rooms, and cafes They then picked
out the ones best suited to the needs
of the mountains and centered atten-
tion on the management of these.

Return As Honored Guests
The Silver Jubilee celebration will
bring back to commencement as hon-
or guests a number of the thirty
members of the class of 1913, the
third class to receive diplomas from
this school.
Dr. Meadows will be the host to
this class in two ways, as class ad-
viser and as president.
Another unique distinction the
class has is that one of their num-
ber is the only alumna on the board
of trustees of their alma mater. This
is Mrs. Charles M. Johnson, the wife
of the state treasurer.
The president of the class their
last term in school, Hattie Weeks,
who remains as their permanent
president, is now Mrs. Ralph F.
Coble, whose home is at 2315 Kirk-
patrick Place, Greensboro.
Seventy per cent of the class are
married and many of these are lead-
ers in their communities.
Two members of the class are
dead. Mary Moore, Mrs. Lon Nobles
of near Greenville, who had been
one of the most active members in
the local alumnae, died a little over
a year ago, leaving three boys and
one girl. Mrs. Hattie Taylor High
died some time ago.
Several in the class have been en-
rolled at ECTC time and again, in
the summer school, and hold A.B.
degrees. Louie Delle Pittman, '32,
is now teaching in the Durham
schools. Ruth Davis, Mrs. Reid El-
more, '34, is teaching in the Four
Oaks schools. Ethel Perry, '35, is
teaching at Plymouth.
Bettie Pearl Fleming, who has
been teaching in the High Point
schools for several years, spends her
summers in Greenville, sometimes
taking courses at the college.
Elizabeth Shell, whose husband,
Mr. G. Greene, is a newspaper man
in Greenville, lives near the campus
and was enrolled for courses during
the winter term.

With thirty-one of the forty-five
East Carolina Teachers College
alumni definitely interested in edu-
cational work, the time is rapidly
approaching when this institution
shall take its rightful place in the
minds of the people of North Caro-
lina as a co-educ�tional college
which trains men as well as women
for entrance into the teaching pro-
fession.
Since June, 1936, r.ineteen out of
the twenty-two men graduating here
have become high school teachers or
coaches. One of the other three,
Alvah Page, is enrolled as a grad-
uate student at this college.
First Graduate
In 1932 East Carolina Teachers
College produced its first male grad-
uate, Henry Oglesby, who at present
is principal of the Griftori school.
Twelve of his thirteen teachers are
I ECTC graduates, including one
' alumnus, Jimmie Curr. Another
j ECTC alunmus who entered the ad-
j ministrative field this vear is Hvatt
Forrest. Young Forrest is princi-
pal of the Pactolus High School,
Pitt County. Eric Tucker, member
of the class of 1933, for the past
two years has been Educational ad-
viser at a CCC camp in the Western
part of the state. Last year Robert
S. Fleming, alumnus who graduated
here in 1935, was employed as
science critic teacher in the Green-
ville High School. Other alumni
who are graduate students at George
Peabody College are Daniel Jordan,
Clyde Brown, and C. O. Armstrong,
who received his masters degree last
year. Alva Van Nortwick, who
graduated in 1934, is a medical stu-
dent at Vanderbilt University,
Men Graduates
The names of the men who have
been graduated from the college are
listed below, with the date of grad-
uation. All except three received
the A.B. degree. Most of them have
gone into educational work or plan
to do so. Some are principals of
schools and are employing graduates
of their alma mater to teach in their
schools.

When interviewed for the Alum
nae Issue of the Teco Echo, Mrs.
Nannie Evans Roles, class of 1937.
who until recently has been asso-
ciated with New College, gave an
interesting account of her work and
her philosophy of education.
Beginning work in the Raleigh
Schools under the supervision of
Mildred English an ardent advo-
cate of progressive education, she
began at once to formulate her own
philosophy of education through
observation, participation, and
study at State College where she
received her M.A. degree. It was
her work here that attracted the at-
tention of Dr. Thomas Alexander
of New College, Columbia Uni-
versity, New York City, who added
her to his staff in 1932. In the
meantime, Miss Evans, had been
occupied with her hobby, which is
art, through a Scholarship to New
York School of Fine and Applied
Art gained through the N. 0. Fed-
eration of Womens Clubs.
In recounting her years at New
College, Miss Evans enumerated
her varied activities, the first year
as acting supervisor of the 40 stu-
dents in Whittier Hall, at the same
time directing a group of eight in
their studv of American Historv,

The very beautiful and impressive
Installation Service, which was con-
ducted at the Vesper Hour Sunday
evening, April 24 was the closing
exercise of the YW year.
The program opened with a violin
solo by Miss Lois Gorrell, a member
of the music department of the Col-
lege. Immediately following the
processional, Elizabeth Copeland,
out-going president, made a short
address in which she gave the pur-
pose of the organization and chal-
lenged the new officers to carry on
in the united desire to realize a full
and creative life through a grow-
ing knowledge of God.
Then as she called the names of
the members of the old cabinet, each
member walked across the stage,
lighted the candle of her successor
from her own burning taper and
surrendered her place to the new
member. After all the members had
been installed. Miss Copeland lighted
the candle of Marie Dawson, the new
president of the Association, and
turned over to her the duties and
responsibilities of the office as presi-
dent. During the recessional the
entire audience joined in singing the
Association hymn.
The new members are: Marie
Dawson of Alliance, who succeeds
Elizabeth Copeland from Ahoskie
as president; Prue Newby from
Hertford, the new vice president,
who takes the place of Marie Daw-
son ; Doris Blalock of Lucama, who

Class of '28 To Meet In Tenth
Reunion As Guest of College
Jes i a Dragonette, "The Musical
Qua ii of the Air is appearing here
tonight in a concert, one of the many
she La giving while on a concert tour
which is her first tour of this nature,
though she is a veteran radio per-
former, having come to the air waves
ten years ago as a girl in her teens.
Acclaimed "Radio Queen" by one
and a half million listeners in a na-
tional popularity contest, she has
retained that well-earned popularity
and it is now being reinformed
as she appears in leading cities of
the country on the tour which began
in Philadelphia, November 22, the
day of the patron Saint of Musie,
St. Cecilia. Evidence of the lasting
quality of her popularity lies in the
fact that she has been heard regu-
larly once a week over the radio
since the beginning of her career, de-
parting for the first time for this con-
cert tour�and her audience loves
her as well today aa ever.
Her singing personality ranges
from that of an operatic singer to
an interpreter of scenes and lyrics
from Shakespeare, making her en-
tirely worthy of the title "The Singer
of a Million Personalities This
new phase of her career, appearing
on the concert stage, will show a new
side of her personality which has
been lost to her radio audience to
which she has been invisible.
Personal appearance gives the
fans of Jessica Dragonette a chance
to see the vivacious, youthful girl
who is as beautiful in features as in
voice. Simple living is the basis
of her vitality, health, and beauty
and contributes, through them, to
the quality of her voice, the singer
believes.
Simplicity in eating is one of the
things to which Miss Dragonette ac-
credits her health. She eats lightly
and frequently, rather than eating
three big meals a day. Beginning
the day with a light breakfast, her
next meal is usually just fruit or
vegetable juices, which constitute her
lunch.
Her lovely complexion she attrib-
utes to the two ounces of lemon juice
which she takes daily in a glass of
hot water. Besides this, her chief
aids to facial beauty are plain soap
, and water and a soft-bristled com-
, plexion brush. The lemon juice she
insiders also an aid in keeping her
J hands white and in keeping the glint
I iu her naturally golden hair.
Exercise is a part of Jessica Dra-
gonette's daily routine, and an im-
portant part she considers it, accord-
ing to her statement "Whether you
are the most social of debutantes or
the most busy of housewives, you

Back to ECTC and all its friendly
associations will come the class of
1928 the four year and the two year
for their tenth reunion, as special
guests of the college. The state has
profited much in the past ten years
by the work these classes have done.
Fortunate indeed is the four year
class in that their friend and ad-
viser, Miss Hooper, is here to greet
them and to keep the many campus
changes from making them feel un-
familiar in our midst. A member
of this class, Miss Elizabeth Smith,
has held the important position of
assistant dean in the college for the
past six years. While a student here
she was president of the YWCA and
since graduation haa served one year
as Alumnae president.
On hand to take her place as their
leader will be Ethel Spratt Bowden
(Mrs. Moeeley Carr Bowden), of
Faison, who served aa president for
three years. She is prominent in erab
work now when little Ann Moeeley
isn't demanding her time. "Spratt"
wrote the beautiful pageant em-
bodied around the gift to the college
of the statue, "The Victory of
Samothrace fteef�.r ;r. rt
Twenty-four members of the class
are married. These young matrons
have twenty-two future students for
ECTC. Three have gone into pro-
fessions other than teaching. Mil-
dred Herring, who taught in Dunn,
studied library science and is now
librarian at Hugh Morson High
School in Raleigh. Louise Evans
has a government position in Wash-
ington, D. C.
Outstanding in the teaching field
are Lucille Britt who has held her
same position in Kinston for ten
years. Margie Caldwell is now in
Burlington but for nine years she
taught in Roanoke Rapids. Cross-
nore haa gained by having Mary
Campbell as a member of its faculty.

Attention Alumnae
All ECTC Alumnae will be
glad to hear that the college is

ing expenses and salary of the

that it would be necessary for �

The Guest Editors who have bandied the Alumnae and Alumni Material
in this issue are:
1. Mrs. Eouella Staneill. Class '14. president of the Alumnae Association.

I, Deanie Boose Haskett. A.B. '26. M.A. '32. first editor of the Tkco Echo.
This Alumnae issue of Teco Echo attempts to feature outstanding
activities of Alumnae and Alumni. From various sources material has
been gathered which will give some idea of their professional achieve-
ments, and which are presented as a sample of what ECTC graduates
are "busy about
We know you will share with us a feeling of pride in the product of
our college whose motto has ever been "To Serve However, we feel
that others are serving in capacities deserving of recognition but which
we have been unable to find out about. Let your College know what you
are doing; you can always be sure that your achievements will be noted
with appreciation by those who follow your professional career with
sympathetic und. rstanding.
Mrs. L. L. Staneill.
Dear Alumnae-Alumni of East Carolina Teachers College:
Commencement occasions are supposed to bring joy and happiness to
the ones who are completing their college work, are receiving their health
certificates, diplomas, and Bibbs, and are launching out upon life's ad-
venturous sea to seek their fortune; their erstwhile tasks and task-masters
are alike forgotten as they grasp the traditional sheepskin, the one sym-
bolic approval of their four years of toil. But the event which brings
gladnes- to the graduates brings sadness to the ones who must remain
behind; we are forced to give up the ones we have learned to love after
four years of close association in the classroom and on the campus. The
one ray of sunshine which penetrates the cloud of gloom is the fact that
all the graduates will return to us from time to time on commencement
occasions. You are graduates of past years; you are the ones who sad-
dened us at your going. We invite, we urge, we plead with you to return
at commencement this year, and bring happiness to all by the renewal
of former associations. We expect you to come. Do not disappoint us.
Leon R. Meadows.
Dear Alumnae:
At this season, our thoughts turn to commencement and you. I am
happy to have the privilege to remind you that not only are we hoping
to have you with us, we are expecting you. Please do
not disappoint us.
This year, we will honor three classes�the class of
1913, the class of 1928, and the class of 1937. We are
anxious to know how you have spent the years since
you left us, and how can we know unless you come back
and give us a report?
As always at commencement time, the campus is yours.
If you wish to have a room reserved in the dormitory,
please notify me at your earliest convenience.
Annie L. Morton,
Dean of Women.
In the past year over two hundred men have enrolled
in East Carolina Teachers College. Our men grad-
uates are in such demand for teaching positions, espe-
cially those who have participated in athletics, that we
are unable because of the limited number of men to
meet the requests for men teachers. The recent addi-
tion of the departments of commerce, physical educa-
tion, and manual arts to our college curricula broadens
our opportunity for the training of men. With this
issue of the Teco Echo, as dean of men, I extend a
cordial greeting to all Alumni of East Carolina Teach-
ers College.
Herbert ReBarker.
HAIL AND FAREWELL
In this issue of the Teco Echo the staff has attempted to give you some
of the highlights of the East Carolina Teachers College Alumnae. We
realize that we can "scratch only the surface" of the field, but we have
attempted to cover some of your rich and colorful history.
Throughout, the past years this institution has held to a consistency of
purpose�that is: That this institution was established for the sole purpose
of training teachers to teach in the public schools of the state.
For invaluable information and suggestions in the publishing of this
number of the Teco Echo, the staff offers "many thanks" to Miss Mamie
E. Jenkins. We also take this opportunity to thank all others who co-
operated with us in making this number of some value to the Alumnae.
With this issue, also, the old staff says "adieu with the hope that our
goal, which we set last fall has been fulfilled. We have tried to give an
impartial cross-section of college activities as completely as possible; we
have eliminated a journalistic crusade; and yet, we have"tried to give'you
a students' newspaper. With our final number, we reaffirm our allegiance
to East Carolina Teachers College and the principle for which it stands.

strange quirks, and the latest of
them involves Jack Benny. He

1938 version of "Artists and

HOLLYWOOD, May 3. � If
any accolades for longevity of serv-
ice in motion pictures are to be
awarded here, the choice for top
honors cannot but be shared by
Harry Carey and Donald Crisp,
both of them veterans of almost
innumerable campaigns before the
cameras.
Carey, for instance, has im-
pinged himself upon every sort of
film footage from Westerns to so-
ciety dramas, from comedies to
tear-jerkers. Not many know it
and even Carey himself can barely
recollect it, but his first picture
was an item entitled "Bill Shar-
key's Last Game a horse opera
with poker interludes, photo-
graphed in the wilds of Staten
Island, New York harbor, in 1908.
Nor did Carey play the juvenile,
even in that early day. It was the
character lead he enacted under the
tutelage of a Swedish director
whose name has slipped his mem-
ory.
And with that forgotten museum
piece as the initial landmark of his
career. Carey now takes in stride
his latest and "thirtieth annual"
photoplay, the Fritz Lang-directed

VERSATILITY
The player who doesn't feel
the urge to direct hasn't yet been
born. Some, such as Gregory
Ratoff, have succeeded at it quite
well. Lew Ayres and Norman
Foster have taken fliers at di-
recting, then returned to acting.
Bing Crosby will direct his own
race horses in a sequence for
"Sing You Sinners but bow
out in favor of Wesley Ruggles
where scenes concerning himself,
Fred MacMurray, Erin Drew
and the other principals are con-
cerned.
Comes now Joan Crawford, of
all people, in the role of director,
acting in that capacity for the
screen test of her protege and
"find Frances Mclnery. The
test was to have been directed by
Edwin L. Marin, but he was de-
tained in a story conference. So,
calling in Robert Young as her
aide, Joan played the required
scene with him, then took charge
as Miss Mclnery and Brent Sar-
gent played it after them.

THE GREATEST THING IN THE WORLD IS HONOR
Some students are probably familiar with the following quotation, which
appears in the front of the Student Handbook, but it cannot be too deeply
impressed upon all.
"The greatest thing in the world is Honor. For it men die that the
heritage of the future may be kept clean. To say that a person is honor-
able is the highest tribute that can be paid to a human being�it is crown-
ing one's character with the brightest laurels. 'It is Honor that keeps us
clean, clean so that we can face our Mothers and our Fathers and our
God without shame, and say that we played the game square
It seems that the students should be rather ashamed of the fact that no
Honor System exists on the campus. Girls and boys who represent our
college at the various student conferences have to sit by and listen to the
success of the Honor Systems on other campuses but when asked about
their own system they feebly admit that they have none

To the Editor:
Well, girls it seems that the time
has come when someone should ex-
press their opinion.
The results of the recent mass
meeting show that the majoritv of
the students on campus would'like
to have the town club boys come to
their dances. It seems that the bovs
have authority over this matter and
we would like to know why.
There are approximately 120 boys
and 800 girls, each one pays $15.00
a year for entertainments. One can
readily see that the girls have more
money involved than the boys.
When we have a college dance,
each student has the privilege of go-
ing and inviting someone. The boys
ask anyone they want, but when the
girls get ready to ask a friend the
boys inform them as to whom they
may invite. The town club boys have
not insulted the girls. Why should
they have to suffer for something
they had nothing to do with
We do not mind the boys not com-
ing over here during the week, but
bid dances seems to me to be quite
a different thing. We could, if the
girls would stick together and not
let the boys sway their opinions do
something about it.
I hate for anyone to know that
10 boys can rule 800 girls. Mv
conclusion would be that we have
some very "spineless" girls.

At the beginning of 1917 the skirts
were sweeping the ground, but tin-

but surely, creeping upward. This
continued until at the close of the'
decade the skirts were above the
knees and plaid stockings were much'
in evidence. Even though skirts ar;
climbing now we hope they won't;
reach a new high.
The girls appeared on the basket

with long sleeves, ties and black

College Co-Educational
In past years, many people have
been prone to think of East Caro-
lina Teachers College as a school
for women only. However, in the
entire history of the college there
j has never been a time when men
have been debarred from the elass-
i rooms here The fiit section of the
: act of the General Assembly estab-
I lishing East Carolina Teachers
Training School, ratified March S,
1907, stated that the school should
be established and maintained for
the training of young white men
and women.

This year, with a record enroll-
ment of 180 men students, East

recognize it as a eo-educational in-

important offices here efficiently. The
sons of alma mater are competing
in athletic events on equal terms
with other colleges in this and
neighboring states.
In view of such progress, it is

ECTC alumni are continuing in
educational work and are well on
the road to outstanding profes-
sional achievement.
Comparative statistics, showing
the growth in attendance and in-
terest in the East Carolina Teach-
ers College High School Day. prove
that it has become a tradition on
the college campus.
This year the attendance on the
third High School Day held on
Tuesday, April 12, was over 2,400
seniors from 108 schools in 31
counties. The first High School
Day. two years ago, was considered
a great success when the number of
seniors sent by 55 schools in 22
counties was approximately 1.150.
The second High School Day was
attended by over 1,700 seniors rep-
resenting 73 schools from 25 conn-

College has made participation in
extra-curricular activities a require-
ment for graduation.
In a report by a special commit-
tee which established this new rule
for students in this liberal arts col-
lege, the faculty assumed complete
regulation of all student activities.
President Fred Pierce Corson
said: "The report is the result of
a long and careful study in which a
large number of students partici-
pated. It is based on the belief that
extra-curricular activities should be
a part of the student's development
and should not take any time which

At the two meetings of the Math)
Club at East Carolina Teachers'
College on March 8, and April 20
the members were entertained by
Miss Williams and Miss Graham.
Miss Williams discussed the sim-
ilarity of a circle to one's life: like
the radius to interest and Knowl-
edge, the axes to character and
prosperity, and pi to things over
which we have no control.
Miss Graham spoke of some of
the better qualities of her former
professors. Some of these were as
follows: kindness, sympathy,
friendliness, the appreciation of
hard work, and the attitude they
took toward their students. In the
end, she left the intuition that
every one could have these.
The social committee ended the
meeting by serving little candies
wrapped with St. Patrick's colors.

HEADLINES
In The Teco Echo
Ten Years Ago
The committee, it was said, has
attempted to do two things: first, to
restrict the over-assertive student;
and secondly, to compel the inactive
student to participate in outside ac-
tivities.
The maximum number of activ-
ities in which a student is allowed
to participate is figured in terms of
hours, and the minimum participa-
tion allowed a student is figured in
terms of value points.
The committee recommends that
the student with an A average for
the last semester of the preceding
year should be allowed unlimited
privileges, that the B student be re-
stricted to 1,000 hours, the C stu-
dent to 750 hours, and the D student
to 500 hours. Also, it is required
that the members of the upper three
classes earn at least 100 value points
during the year.
Freshmen, in the interests of their
best orientation to college work, are
excluded from extra-curricular ac-
tivities beyond physical education.
They may be permitted to take part
only with the approval of the Board
of Deans.
ties.
These figures represent the regis-
tration as recorded, but each year it
lias been found that there were
groups wdio did not register. This
year only 10 of the 108 groups came
without having first sent formal ac-
ceptances.
The same committee, headed by
Dr. Carl Adams, has been in charge
of the three High School Days. In
general, the same procedure has
been followed each year, but every-
thing has been on a larger scale.
Entertainment for the visitors
has been increased each year. This
year it was found necessary to show
the movie twice whereas on the two
previous years, only one showing
was needed.
�Out of High School Day has
grown a friendly rivalry between
Wilson and Pitt counties as to
which will have the largest repre-
sentation on High School Day. Pitt
led this year with 413 seniors and
Wilson was second with 379. On
both the other High School Days,
Wilson 1ms had the largest at-
tendance.
This year some schools came from
greater distances than had been
recorded in the two previous years.
Moyocb in the northwestern part of
the state. Southport in the south-
east, and Aberdeen from the south-
west, were the schools that came
from the greatest distance.
The smoothness and rapidity
with which the day's activities were
carried out lias been one of the
characteristics of High School Day
since its beginning. The entire
crowd at the barbecue luncheon
this year was served in approxi-
mate! v thirty minutes.
The Jessica Dragonette concert
Thursday night, May 5, brought to
a close the programs that have made

In describing the purpose of the

Two of the class are wives of min-

Washington, and her husband serves
churches near by. The last address

a notable event in college dramatics.
It was coached by Miss Gertrude

fame for her organization of Folk

We welcome back to their Alma

still be climbing upward for new
achievements ten years from now.
Senior Normal Class
The senior-normal class of 1923,
and its 207 members is so large and
the members so scattered that it has
been impossible to get together
enough information for an adequate
report.
The Alumnae records show that
55 are married. Two are dead,
Ethel Boskin and Finette Stanfield.
A large number have continued
to speak their lines. The seats were
emptying, but the actors played on.
As the Muse of History spoke hen
final words, she recalls tenderly that
the late beloved Dr. Robert Herring
Wright was one of the last to leave,
turning several times as he did so!

In addition to the Vesper Services,
there have been many YW socials
for the members; a membership con-
test has been held ; deputation teams
have made return visits to other
colleges; representatives have at-
tended the State Conferences of the
Association, and a Peace Council
ha been organised on the campus.
Though much of the success of the
year is due to the spirit of coopera-
tion and untiring efforts of the offi-
cers, the greater accomplishments
were made possible by the unreserved
and unlimited efforts of the Associa-
tion sponsors, Miss Emma L. Hoop-
er, Miss Louise Grigsby, and Mr.
E. L. Henderson.
