With much indecision as to how best to present

the college life of One Thousand Nine Hundred

Thirty-eight, we embarked upon our course last fall.

After surmounting the usual trials and pit-falls we

have amassed the information contained herein and

present it as your memoires of this year.

It is our earnest desire that in years to come this

book will carry you back to the good old days—your

happy, carefree days of Nineteen Hundred Thirty-

eight. If, in the future, The Nineteen Hundred

Thirty-Eight Mound does that we will feel that our

time has been well spent.

It is with this thought in mind that once again we

present for you The Mound. May you cherish it as

a true friend.

DEDICATED

MRS. JOSEPH ROSIER

Who although not directly connected with Fairmont State

Teachers College has a very keen interest in it—its ideals,

aims, and aspirations.

Mrs. Rosier has seen schools develop from the time of the

itinerate teacher, to which class her father belonged. Shestudied in the Salem schools, elementary, secondary, and col-

lege. After completing her college work in Glenville College,

Mrs. Rosier taught school for three years. P. E. O., a college

non-Greek letter sorority, in which Mrs. Rosier holds member-ship has only four chapters in West Virginia.

Although she has been interested and indirectly connected

with schools for some years it is for her civic activities that

The Mound wishes to honor the wife of our President. At

various times during the past few years she has served in the

following capacities: chairman of the third annual membershipcampaign of the Red Cross; President of the Women's Club at

a time when the membership was about seven hundred;

Regent of the Major William Haymond Chapter of tha

Daughters of the American Revolution. Mrs. Rosier now has

an honorary membership in the Business and Professional

Women's Club, and the Family Welfare has been greatly

aided by her able assistance. Immediately after the United

States entered the World War, Mrs. Rosier organized and

established the Home Service Department of the Red Sross and

served for several years as Executive Secretary; this depart-

ment is still very active today.

Realizing that Fairmont State Teachers College has an

interest and concern in the civic life of Fairmont, The MoundStaff of Nineteen Hundred and Thirty-Eight, respectfully

dedicate this book to one of the civic leaders of Fairmont,

Mrs. Joseph Rosier.

FAIRMONT STATE TEACHERS COLLEGE

We feel proud of Fairmont State Teachers College

today. It stands on its knoll and provides training

which better fits us to work in and for society. How-

ever, if we look at its past record we may feel just

a little more proud.

The present college was one of the first estab-

lished as a private institution in 1865 to meet the

demand for competent and efficient teachers in the

free schools. Advancement has been steady from

the time of the first meeting in the basement of a

church to our present standing. Our school has had

three homes of its own: first, at the corner of Quincy

and Adams Streets; second, on Fairmont Avenue;

and now on the hill.

From a student body of seventy-five in 1872 wehave grown to an enrollment of over seven hundred.

We have advanced from a high school standing to a

college rating. In 1905, our Teachers' Training De-

partment was added. It was in 1923, when we offered

our first A. B. degree in Education, that we finally

achieved a rating as a first class college. From this

time only two courses, The College and The Standard

Normal, have been offered.

Throughout this time the school has had the aim

of preparing teachers so that education in West Vir-

ginia may be improved to the greatest possible

extent.

A D I N I S T R A T I N

From the time a student enters Fairmont

State Teachers College until he graduates, his

life, while he is there and after he leaves, is

directly in the hands of the faculty of the school.

The number of graduates from this school testify

to the fact that the guidance received while in

Fairmont State College is very desirable and

that the ones administering it are very capable of

guiding us in our preparation for life.

It is with a firm but just hand that education

and social life are mixed by the administrators

through this cycle of time. By their dexterous

leadership we avoid many pitfalls and develop

our ability to live amicably with our fellow-

students.

Second Semester Hazel ColeTreasurer Fraley LoudenSergeant-at-Arms Willis Davis

Student government at Fairmont State Teachers Collegeis one of the most highly developed student governments in

the state It was inaugurated in November, nineteen hundredand seven, and since that time has steadily grown strongerand more efficient in its functioning.

In the years since its establishment, the student govern-ment has encouraged a close co-operation with the administra-tion and faculty, a pleasing development in the social attitudesof the students, a higher degree of self-sufficiency and a mani-festation of authoritative interest.

It is our earnest desire to develop our student governmentto the highest degree of efficiency and cooperation.

CLASSES

To facilitate the administrators in their

guidance of the undergraduate in his study the

entire student body is divided into various

classes according to their rating and course of

study. By this method of division we find the

following classes

SENIOR CLASS OF NINETEEN HUNDRED AND THIRTY-EIGHT

It is with heart-felt regret that The Class of

Nineteen Hundred and Thirty-eight comes to the

parting of the ways. Naturally, in reflecting on

what has gone before, the class is inclined to recall

most vividly those pleasant and profitable relations

that have sprung up as a result of life at Fairmont

State College.

However, the class feels that the true worth of

the knowledge and experience gained by each indivi-

dual during the past four years will be most fully

realized when it is used as a foundation upon which

to build careers.

Having accepted so much, the least hope of the

class is that it has contributed something in return

toward making Fairmont State College a living and

growing institution.

The class of Nineteen Hundred and Thirty-nine

brings to an end its third year of success in college

campus activities. Realizing that the end of our

journey is near, the class has gripped the reins

tightly for the final dash.

During the past three years the class has ex-

celled in many fields of activity. Athletics, drama-

tics and social functions have had the full support

of the Junior class. Always playing a leading

role in social activities on the campus, this year

the class sponsored its most outstanding event

which was the Junior Prom, a highlight of the

social season at Fairmont State College.

So, it is with optimism that the Junior Class

looks forward to its most distinguished year upon

the campus, in which it hopes to raise the stand-

ards and ideals of Fairmont State College.

The Sophomore Class of Nineteen Hundred and Thirty-eight feels that it has the makings of one of the best classes

ever to attend Fairmont State Teachers College.At the beginning of the year it sponsored the annual Dad's

Day parade, game and dance. In spite of weather conditionsmost of the plans were carried out and the day was a successin every way.

The class has been outstanding in many fields of activity

during the year. Dramatics, athletics, and social functionshave had full and cooperative support from the Sophomoregroup.

It is the earnest desire of every member of the class to

aid in making Fairmont State Teachers College the best of thebest!

supervisors. On January fourteenth, a party was

given for the members of the class and their guests.

With the coming of spring the annual tea for the

critic teachers and supervisors has been added to the

social calendar. Altogether the year nineteen hun-

dred thirty-seven and thirty-eight has been a very

happy one for the Senior Normal Class.

ORGANIZATIONS...

A very important phase of college life is the

extra-curricular activities, the honorary and

the social societies. These organizations aid

very much in developing loyalty, cooperation,

and a spirit of friendly rivalry, which tends to

develop those qualities that are admired by all.

These fraternities and clubs have ideals and

goals that make the organizations credits to

the school, and that develop friendliness and

brotherhood among the college people.

TAU BETA

IOTAThe Tau Beta Iota fraternity was founded on the

campus of Fairmont State Teachers College in

November, 1925. Since it was the first fraternal

organization to be established at Fairmont State

Teachers College its members have always worked

together, bound by undying bonds of brotherhood,

toward the common goal of higher social and scholas-

tic standards.

Membership in the organization can be obtained

only by meeting the rigid requirements which govern

prospective members in their period of pledging.

Chief among these requisites are, outstanding parti-

cipation in extra-curricular activities, attainment of

a high scholastic average, and character and reputa-

tion absolutely above reproach.

The fraternity has gained a reputation for its

outstanding social events, and also for its annual all-

male musical show written and directed by members

of the organization. Other activities of the year

include the T. B. I. Pep Campaign, Hallowe'en Party.

Turkey Dance, Christmas Dance, and annual Spring

Formal. It is a well known fact on the campus that

whenever a worthwhile project is started, a T. B. I.

is always lending active support.

This organization endeavors to maintain a high

scholastic standing, and to take an active part in all

school activities. It has become traditional with the

sorority members to help with registration each

semester.

Traditional events which are held each year are,

the Fall Tea for faculty and sorority members, the

Winter formal, the Founders' Day Banquet, the

Minstrel, the Mother-Daughter banquet, the Spring

PI

The Omricon Pi fraternity was organized in the

spring of 1927 and was recognized by the Student

Council January 10, 1928. Since that time it has

grown steadily and has become one of the outstand-

ing organizations on the campus.

Omricon Pi has been a pioneer in many worth-

while activities in college life and has never been a

laggard in supporting those good measures intro-

duced by others. The brothers of this fraternity

have continuously striven for the two highest ideals,

scholarship and felowship. In no other organization

has there been the constant feeling of brotherhood

which has survived in this fraternity since its origin.

This fraternity has endeavored to participate in

all campus activities and maintain its honor among

other groups.

Delta Sigma Epsilon appeared on this campus in

May, 1934, when the Beta Psi Beta Sorority became

nationally affiliated. Delta Sigma Epsilon was

founded at Miami University, Oxford, Ohio, Septem-

ber 23, 1914; and has thirty-one active chapters.

The aims of the sorority are to establish the all-

embracing desire to stand out through consideration

of others. What cannot be obtained by fair methods

is not desirable. Honesty, integrity and unselfish-

ness win in the end.

The Colonial Tea in the fall honoring the faculty

and the St. Patrick's Day Tea-dance in the spring

honoring the other sororities and fraternities are the

outstanding social functions of the year.

ZETA

SIGMA

The Zeta Sigma Fraternity is a national organiza-

tion without limits regarding the type of training

offered in college in which chapters may be organ-

ized.

It was founded at Beckley College in 1934. Since

then, chapters have rapidly spread from eastern

United States to New Mexico.

The West Virginia Alpha Chapter was chartered

in May 1935 and has been actively engaged in campus

activities since it was recognized by the Student

Council October 10, 1935.

The Fraternity's earnest desire is to give a group

of worthy young men an opportunity to enter into

the type of organization so essential to the individ-

ual's harmonious development while in college, and

this it has proudly accomplished.

"life". They are Brooks Higinbotham, Ted Thompson, ClaudeLawson, Mary Virginia Dowden. and Woodrow Sayre. All of

these actors have furnished Fairmont College audiences withinteresting moments of theatre during their four years at ourcollege and it is with genuine regret and best wishes that wesee them leave us.

Nu Alpha Phi, honorary French fraternity, was organizedas Nous Autres Francais in 1931 by students interested in

French. Its standing as an honorary fraternity was recognizedin March 1936 when the name of the society was changed. Theprimary purpose of the organization is to offer encouragementand opportunity to French honor students to speak French, andto stimulate an active interest in this language and the nationwhich uses it.

The accomplishment of this aim was furthered by the pre-sentation of a program in French for the student body, by thecontinuance of the "French Corner" in the Columns and by a

tea given in February. Nu Alpha Phi is quickly taking its

place as one of the outstanding fraternities on the campus.

This organization, more informally known as the Letter-

young men who had been awarded school letters by the Ath-

letic Council, for their outstanding participation in athletics.

This organization was founded for a four-fold purpose: to

interpret the purpose of athletics in Fairmont State Teachers

College as it is recognized by the administration, to give awards

for athletic service; to create higher social and academic

standards among fellow athletes, and to bring the athletic

department closer to the student body and the faculty.

This fraternity also publishes the annual "Dad's Day" foot-

ball program and acts as host at the Football Student Mix.

Under the direction of Glenn Arnett and themanagement of Orin Ford, the Maroon and WhiteBand has gained much recognition on parade andin concerts.

The support given to the band by its loyal ad-

viser, Miss Blanche Price, has done much to con-tribute to its success.

The dramatic season of 1937-1938 at Fairmont State Teach-

ers College, as sponsored by the Masquers Club, included four

three-act plays of a varied nature. On November 22, 23, and

24, Brooks Higinbotham played the leading role of "Uncle

Tom's Cabin," an old-time melodrama. The second play

"Everyman" played a revival after five years on January 17

and 18, with Lloyd Bennett, a freshman, acquitting himself

very satisfactorily in the title role. The third production was"Whistling In The Dark," a comedy melodrama of moderngangster life. Harold Scott, a sophomore, played the leading

role, and Jack, Corrothers and Eldon Montgomery played out-

standing roles. The fourth and last produclion, May 10, was"Fresh Fields," a modern comedy. All of these major pro-

ductions were directed by Mr. L. A. Wallman.

The Masquers entrant for the Speech Festival, which was

held here March 31, April 1 and 2, was Lynn Rigg's one-act

comic episode of Oklahoma, "Knives From Syria." The cast

was composed of Claude Lawson, Florena Evans, Charles

Armstrong, and Mabel Everly, who was named on the All-

State Cast by the Critic Judge, Mr. Buell C. Whitehill, of the

University of Pittsburgh.

ATHLETICS

Athletics at Fairmont State Teachers Col-

lege is what one might expect to rind in Utopia,

not evident from undefeated seasons, but that

representing a friendly spirit and good will.

The lesson which the athlete learns of fair

play and honesty will be one to carry over into

any occupation which he may pursue. Partici-

pation in athletics serves to build character

and mental strength as well as physical

staminia.

Since Jasper H. Colebank came to Fair-

mont as athletic director and head coach in

1924, the "Fighting Teachers" have become an

institution in themselves, and one in which we

take the utmost pride.

-Robert B. Moran '39

JASPER COLEBANKAthletic Coach

This trio of hard-working individuals

answered the every need of the football

team, both on and off the gridiron. HeadCoach Jasper Colebank has been here

so long that writers have run out of

new things to say about him. All the

Mound staff wishes to say is that it

hopes he stays here twice as long as he

already has been here.

Charles Fortney captained the

"Fighting Teachers" this past fall in a

most capable fashion and is deserving of

every honor bestowed upcn him. TomManley, the team's manager, carried out

his duties in a par excellence mannerand Coach Colebank's only hope is that

he has prepared an assistant as capable

as he has been this year.

John Rendel Thomas, better knownas "Benny", was a valuable man as as-

sistant coach and we cannot tell you in

words how we appreciate your efforts.

May you be with us again next fall.

CHARLES FORTNEY, End"Charlie" captained the team in his fourth year as a

regular. Fortney make a habit of playing hard clean foot-

ball and it was a treat to see him at terminal. He will beamong the missing when the next season opens.

ALBERT FULTZ, Fullback

"Buzzy" completed his fourth season as a regular underthe Colebank regime in a most capable fashion. Fultz didthe bulk of the punting and passing and did his share of

the ball-carrying in a spectacular manner. His absencenext fall will be noticed.

RICHARD WARE, Center

"Dick" played his second season for the Colebankersand turned in a good performance on all occasions. Goodcenters are not a rarity here, but if possible Ware shouldreceive a higher ranking for his excellent work.

WILLIS DAVIS, Halfback

"Davey" could pick the holes with the best of backsand was an adept pass-receiver on all occasions. His runsfrom punt formation and line thrusts earned him well de-served laurels on all sides.

HAROLD DUVALL, Quarterback

"Deacon" climaxed a brilliant career under the Maroonand White banner and turned in his most valuable seasonthis past fall. Duvall was the local speed merchant andcaused our opponents' many heartaches.

SAMUEL GRAKE, Guard"Sam," a diminutive powerhouse, was one of the spark-

plugs of the team. Always a heady player, Grake could b?found in there playing a steady and consistent brand of

ball throughout the season.

EDMUND DILLINGHAM, Halfback

"Ed" was another sophomore who answered the call to

arms in a brilliant way. He showed more dash than everbefore and was always feared by the opposition. His block-ing paved the way for the speedier backs.

DAVID ROWAND, Guard"Dave" played a sparkling brand of ball in his first year

under the Maroon and White Banner. His defensive workwas a highlight of the year, and his ability to open up holes

on the offensive a treat for the spectators.

ELLIS ENOCH, End"Bud" saw some fine work as a substitute in this, his

first year with the "Fighting Teachers." Not greatlyheralded in advance notices, Enoch caused the coaches to

open their eyes with his work on the end of the line.

ANGELO CRESCENZI, Tackle

"Angie," a husky lad, came through with flying colors

this season and his brilliant performance and head workearned him the captaincy of next fall's eleven. Crescenziwill make the "Fighting Teachers" a real leader.

JUNE ANDRICK, GuardThis lad was one of Coley's most adept pupils and a

hard-working lineman. His aggressiveness and active headwork garnered June many laurels on the gridiron. He'll beback too.

JAMES OWEN, Tackle

"Jimmy" landed a berth on' the first string this seasonand fulfilled Coach Colebank's expectations in a worthymanner. A giant in stature, Owen was a bulwark in everydepartment of the game.

Coaches Jasper Colebank and "Benny" Thomas had sevenmembers of the 1936 eleven on hand at the start of the season,but injuries and a late start in pre-season practice nullifiedwhat might have been a highly successful season for theMaroon and White.

Bare statistics do not altogether speak for themselves con-cerning this gridiron machine. Although the "FightingTeachers" chalked up but one victory, tied another, and lost

five games during the season the team was regarded as a"comer" and big things are expected for F. S. T. C. on thegridiron in 1938.

FAIRMONT 0; GLENVILLE 27A big fast-charging eleven from Gilmer county scored in

each of the four quarters and capitalized on all but one scoringopportunity to take a 27-0 victory from the Colebankers in theopening game of the season. Edwards' 62-yard gallop for atally was the longest run of the game.

FAIRMONT 0; CONCORD 13

Jimmy Callaghan's powerful Mountain Lions took ad-vantage of numerous penalties and several 'breaks' of thegame to upset the locals in the second tilt of the year playedat Athens. A steady downpour of rain handicapped the Fair-mont passing attack. Concord's scores were made in the open-ing period and in the final seconds of play.

FAIRMONT 7; CALIFORNIA 9

An automatic safety in the first quarter spelled defeat for

the Maroon and White after both elevens scored a touchdownin the second quarter. In 1936 the two machines battled to ascoreless tie. and this fall's game was clearly a toss-up for

supremacy.

FAIRMONT 0; SHEPHERDThe Fighting Teachers failed to win their next game by

virtue of an act of fate when they rolled up 13 first downs to

none for the Rams, but still were only able to come out witha scoreless tie. The local outfit ran up over 200 yards fromscrimmage and tossed the visitors for a yard loss, but a ruggedShepherd defense prevented a Fairmont tally.

FAIRMONT 6; SALEMIn the "biggest" game of the year on foreign soil, the

Teachers nosed out a scrappy Salem Tiger team by a single

touchdown margin. An aerial from Fultz to Duvall accountedfor the game's only score late in the second quarter, while astone-wall defense by the Colebankers prevented any Salemscoring.

FAIRMONT 13; WEST LIBERTY 14

The Maroon and White lost their final home game of theseason when Joe Bartell's machine nosed them out, 14 to 13.

after a thrill-packed tussle. The contest was marked by manylong runs and passes that kept a crowd in an uproar through-out the game. Kuznicki for the Hilltoppers and Duvall for

Fairmont each tallied two touchdowns.

FAIRMONT 0; POTOMAC STATE 32

A swivel-hipped halfback by the na.ne of Harley Kuhlspelled defeat for the Fighting Teachers whan ha scored threetouchdowns on spectacular runs after tallying on the openingplay of the game on a 60-yard jaunt. The Catamounts con-tinued to shake Kuhl loose for touchdown runs, and withGoodwin and Gruber adding a score each, the final gun foundthe Colebankers on the short end of a 42-0 count.

FAIRMONT 0; BETHANY 12

One completed pass and another intercepted aerial pro-vided John Knight's Bisons with a victory over the Fairmontmachine in the final game of the year. The Bethany gridiron

was a snow-covered field that kept running attacks down to

a minimum.

BASKETBALLHarold (Deacon) Duvall led the "Fighting Teach-

ers" through the 1937-38 basketball season in a highly

successful manner. His brilliant ability inspired the

team on to greater heights on many occasions while

his natural ability as a leader filled the breech in the

"clutch." "Deacon" made this, his fourth season as a

regular, his most worthy year for the cage quintet.

Besides playing a veritable air-tight defensive game,

Duvall was the team's second highest scorer, tally-

ing well over 200 points from his guard position.

Fraley Louden was an ideal basketball manager

last winter and administered to the needs of the

squad in a capable style. His cheery manner and

clever personality were an added asset to the team,

while needless to say he handled the financial and

other tasks efficiently.

Reading from left to right and front to back, the 1937-38 Fairmont State College basketball squadincludes:

Front Row—Glenn Teets, Albert Fultz, Capt. Harold Duvall, Ed Billingham, Willis Davis, ManagerFraley Louden.

Back Row—Blaine Ankrom, Jake Murphy, Ned Pence, Bill Thompson, Dick Ware, and CoachJasper Colebank.

HAROLD DUVALL, GuardThe captain of the Colebankers was "Deacon" Duvall, a

fast, clever worker who was instrumental in many of thelocals' victories. His sharpshooting ability coupled with anuncanny knack of being able to foresee the opponents' move-ments made Duvall a great guard for Coach Colebank. A four-letter man, Duvall graduates in high honor from athletic wars.

ALBERT FULTZ, GuardHere is a player who will go down in the annals of F. S.

T. C. history as one of the outstanding basketball players toever don a Maroon and White uniform. "Buzzy" played fourseasons of brilliant basketball and climaxed his cage careerthis season by leading the team in scoring when he looped inwell over 200 points from his position at guard. His absencewill be keenly felt in every field of athletics.

RICHARD WARE, Center

A late start in practice handicapped "Dick" in landing aregular berth on the team, but he saw some valuable serviceand gave a good account of himself on many occasions. Beingambidextrious helped Ware out-wit his opponents in manygames. He'll be back too.

WILLIAM THOMPSON. Forward"Bill", a freshman, was a part-time regular from the start

of the season and handled himself expertly at all times. Hislightning-fast work on the floor enabled him to out-maneuverhis opponents in caging many a two-pointer. Over 150 pointswere marked up for this lad during the season's tour.

EDMUND BILLINGHAM, Guard"Ed" was handicapped by his slight build, but neverthe-

less made good his boast to "make" the team this year. Al-though a guard at heart, Ed made Coach Colebank a depend-able forward. Not a high-scoring eager, Billingham could belooked forward to doing his share of the work and a little

more.

GLENN TEETS, ForwardThe fastest man on the team was the diminutive former

Aurora flash. Glenn failed to land a first string position, butgave his best when called to fill the breech in a substitute role.

Only a sophomore, Teets will gather his laurels in the comingyears.

BLAINE ANKROM, Forward"Ank" played a sparkling brand of ball throughout the

season and on several occasions his brilliant work earned himstarting assignments. A hard worker, Ankrom's aggressive-

ness accounted for many of the "Fighting Teacher" scoresfrom beneath the hoop.

WILLIS DAVIS, Farward

Fast and of stocky build, Willis saw much service duringthe season. Although he failed to get in every game Davisturned in good performances whenever called upon, and shouWbe in a varsity suit next winter.

NED PENCE Cent-r

Here's another freshman who landed a regular berth fromthe start of the season. His heighth was valuable to the teamin work beneath the hoop, and his defensive work was anasset to him. The next three years should bring added laurels

to this future star.

TENNIS

The Tennis Team of Fairmont State College, due to the

weather, played only five of the nine matches that werescheduled to be played. Of these they won one.

The team had four players from the previous year, these

being Orin Ford, the Captain, Harold Duvall, the No. 1 man,

Charles Witt, the No. 4 man, and George Williamson, a senior,

the No. 3 man.

The rest of the team was composed of new men, who look

very promising for the coming year, these being Blankenship,

Reed, Sharp, and Powell.

Coach C. A. Lindley has built up a team which has all the

promises of being able to stand up against any college team

of the state. Due to the inability of some of the outstanding

players to participate in the matches and the inexperience of

the others, they were not so successful in winning their

matches, but in every match the boys put up grand fights.

BASEBALL

INCLEMENT weather prevented the baseball nine

from getting the proper amount of pre-seasontraining, but, nevertheless, Coach Jasper Colebankwas able to mold together a nine that displayed a

clever brand of ball throughout the season. Onlyfour members of the 1936 varsity were on hand for

positions, while the remainder of the lineup waschosen from good first-year material. And, despite

the fact that the team went through a six-game sea-

son without a single triumph, the nine fought witha will and proved that they were real "FightingTeachers."

As a nucleus for the club, Coach Colebank hadVeterans Bernie Joyce, Buzzy Fultz, Paul Kundratik,and Charles Fortney returning to the diamond for

another year. Joyce and Kundratik held down in-

field berths along with Lou Piccola and JimmyBarry, while Fultz guarded the outfield along withWillis Davis, Glenn Teets, Orval Hammon, and LeoRoberts. Fortney was behind the plate, while "Cow-boy" Duling, Jimmy Owen, and Denver Wotringturned in some clever work on the mound alongwith Outfielder Fultz.

The nine this spring is expected to be a real

machine with practically all of last season's team onand, and the host of new stars will likely boost thelocal baseball stock.

THE CAMPUS DAY BOOK...

Let's take a brief squint at the happenings on the

campus, which have somewhat eased the continuous

grind of classes. (We hope it was continuous.)

Freshmen registration was held on Sept. 13, on

the fourteenth those of us who were fortunate

enough to be upper classmen (or were we?) found

ourselves duly registered students.

On Sept. 24 the Student Body gave a Student Mixand it certainly was a "mix." We were so mixed up

we did not know who we came with. (Come to think

of it maybe we weren't with anyone.) The T. B. I.'s

and Gammas entertained with an expense dance;

'mid the corn and hay a "Hay" of a good time was

had by all.

Dad's had their day on the 23, but I wonder whohad the best time at the dance? The only dad we sawat the dance was Vance Trimble.

Orchids to the Gammas for their lovely tea of

Nov. 5, the faculty and organizations were well en-

tertained even though it was formal.

The T. B. I. Turkey Dance was enjoyed by all

who attended. On the 24th we could all breathe

freely. Reason: Thanksgiving Holidays.

The Christmas season didn't pass without somecelebrations, namely the Omicron Pi closed party,

Zeta Sigma closed party, T. B. I. Christmas dance,

the Alpha Delta Tea, Masquers banquet, GammaChristmas formal, and the Tri Sigma's closed party.

After the usual "wet" Christmas holidays we re-

turned on Jan. 3 to find the faculty still waiting for

us. (Cheerfully we hope.)

The T. B. I.'s closed party was so closed we still

have not heard about it.

Again on Jan. 31 we enrolled for the second

semester. The Alumna were guests at the Homecom-ing on the 11th of February, the first social event of

the second semester. We cannot skip over the monthof February without mentioning the Tri Sigma's

Valentine Tea which was given for the faculty and

organizations. The gals of Morrow Hall entertained

the promising young men of the campus at open

house on March 4.

The Gammas certainly handed it to the T. B. I.

boys did they not fellows, maybe they are right

after all, who knows?

We would like to congratulate the Masquers andAlpha Psi's for the way they delightfully entertained

the members of the speech conference.

As April rolls around we find the learned people

of the Kappa Delta Pi gathering here and somewonderful lectures were heard.

The Alpha Delt's completely overwhelmed us

with "H-e-r-e C-o-m-e-s T-h-e S-h-o-w-b-o-a-t."

April and May are in the near future, if, howeveryou want a detailed account of the formals, the Promand the other events there's ALWAYS Brooksie's

Column you know. (It's in the Columns.)
