THIS IS SUPPOSED TO BE A YEAR- BOOK INTRODUCTION— one of the hundreds ground fronn the pens of editors — stilted in form and thin-worn with its phrases requesting appre- ciation of effort. The 194! PINE CONE staff asks Rp appreciation. While it was necessary to have a uiding hand composed of a few "dependables," we could not have published an annual without your cooperation. It is you — the student body — to whom we owe a vote of thanks. You have ^^filled the following pages with your school life, ome one has said that no scholastic publication ulfills its purpose unless it is representative of the body which it portrays. We sincerely trust that this yearbook goes down in scholastic annals as ,beins^rthY of G. S. W. C.
IIM
ACTIVITIES AND FRIENDSHIP BEGIN with the student's entrance into the college. Desire for learning comnnences in the buildings of the college, and college life initi- ates desire for successful accomplishment. There is nothing that takes the place of dormi- )ry life and the friendships that are made therein. And there is nothing to supplement the knowledge and establishment of ideals which are gained through class room work. We give you our college — the "fountain of youth" — from whence flow our ^^ams of the future.

SCHEDULES OF CLASSES AND AFFAIRS make the tempo of college life fast moving. Last year's Seniors are now tradition, the Freshmen are making themselves felt and we who were Juniors find ourselves among the Seniors of today. To you, the bewildered Fresh- man— To you, the successful, confident Sopho- more— To you, the superior and complacent Junior — To you, the Senior who is now to face lity we relegate the following pages.
Potential blackboard wizards of tomorrow arc the Seniors. And whether they turn out to be school mar'ms, slum cleaner- uppers or tycoons of the test tube, the members of this class will proudly recall having been an individual in one of the outstanding groups of the campus.
The year 1941 brings about the fulfillment of a dream conceived years ago. Under the capable leadership of Margaret Burns, three times president of her class, the two major aims of this group have been realized: to live for the welfare of the college and to have a Senior trip. Every move made for the past four years, has displayed cooperation in the highest degree and can be attributed to the desire for fulfillment of the aims of the class.
Plenty of hard work and fun for everyone was wrapped up in the many projects undertaken by the class. G. S. W. C. stationery, stickers, pennants, and address books were offered to the campus, and no one will ever forget the Senior Carnival. The University of Georgia Glee Club and several Saturday night dances kept the Seniors and the stu- dent body in tune with the country's latest "swing and sway."
Reluctant to leave, yet satisfied with their accomplishments, the girls set out for their walk in life. And if ingenuity has anything to do with success, they have a head start.

Matured by two years of college, the Junior Class has learned to put originality into every activity they sponsor. One of the most striking examples of their originality was evidenced in the Junior-Senior Formal which was one of the highlights of the year. This dance was a farewell given to the Seniors by the Juniors.
Christmas cards sold by the class, two Saturday night Rec-Hall frolics, and a tea in the House-in-the-Woods were just a few of the activities sponsored by the '41 Juniors.
Fun kings of the campus, this group has acquired the "rep" of having some of the choicest campus screwballs.
Although the class displayed a tendency to divide up into its own little groups, when- ever the situation demanded, they could function cooperatively as a group in putting over the issue at hand.
During spring quarter, the class contributed generously to the British War Relief Fund. In fulfilling its attempt to bring enrichment not only to the Junior Class but to the entire campus as well, the group placed a most attractive picture in Senior Hall office.
Pep was a conservative appositive for the class. With its boisterous, yet wholesome attitude, it represented the whistle and bells on the engine of campus machinery.

Sophomores are the deadest dopes on campus is the old saying which this class has thoroughly refuted. The class goal was the attainment of Edward Bok's motto, "Make ye the world a bit better for having lived in it"; and, they made rapid and interesting steps to do something about it.
Under the leadership of Catherine Martin, one hundred and two Sophomores ac- quired the reputation of being the most original group on campus. You could never tell what those versatile Sophomores were planning, but it always proved beneficial and entertaining to the campus.
A Sophomore Council was organized to work in cooperation with the Y. W. C. A., and this council sponsored several hikes, breakfasts, and open house at the House in the Woods each Sunday night for girls with campus dates. The girls assisted in knitting squares for blankets for the war victims.
To provide a record of the class activities, a Sophomore scrapbook was kept. Within the pages of this enviable book, future Sophomores will find a goal at which they might aim, and the present members of the class may look back with pride on a year of work and reward.
With an unusual leader and a grand group of workers, this class is slated for college history.

They came, they saw, they concurred and elected dynamic little Sara Petty as leader of their class. This year brought the campus a Freshman class whose inclination for animated activities has been evident since the first day they arrived.
At the beginning of the year the class staged an election that put many of the upper-class ones to shame. Banners, cards, speeches, and free chewing gum blew up candidates, and a coalition movement defeated a high school clique.
That this year's Freshman class has outgrown high school tendencies was proved by the way they entered into campus activities. A Freshman was always on hand — ready, willing, and completely capable of making a contribution.
The annual Freshman-Junior Formal was held at the Country Club in February. The Valentine season served as a theme for no-break cards, posters, decorations, and refreshments. Every Freshman and Junior was there with her heartbeat, and the frolic turned out to be a never-to-be-forgotten affair.
As is usually typical, the average Freshman spent a great deal of time Country- storing, bull-sessioning, bridge playing, and worrying because she hadn't started worry- ing sooner over academic problems. However, the girls came to realize that college is what you make it; and from all evidences, they reaped full benefit.
The one sad note in the class history, was the loss of a fellow class-mate — Anne Singletary. During the time that Anne was in college, she endeared herself to the stu- dents and faculty; and her friendship will not be forgotten.

EVERY G. S. W. C STUDENT RE- LIES ON that old adage, "variety is the spice of life." The goal of each individual girl is to win her G. S. W. C. leadership emblem which is awarded to the student^y the Student Government Association in recognition of her ictivities^, college life. The average student also realizes the value of "Susan be smooth," for the social calender of G. S. W. C. is replete wjtjT^^A^ing and sway" sessions envolving the opposite sex. ^ 1^
Swimming, sleeping, studying, cooking, slcat- ig, dating, "jooking" — yes, all these and G; S. W. C. too!
Williams and Parham.
Controllers of the campus cut-ups and cuties, the Student Government Association is a lubricant which keeps the bearings of campus life oiled and free from hot boxes of criticism. Including every girl in the student body in its membership, the association is a democratic organization with free- dom of expression, thought, and action as its underlying principle. Its main purpose is the promotion of the highest standards of honor and integrity in all manners of personal conduct, to preserve order, and to strengthen the cordial relations between faculty and students.
In as much as S. G. A. is a barometer of student opinions including all com- plaints and constructions, the association sees more kicks than the under side of a bridge table. Each project undertaken this year has been very successful and campus improvement was evident. The improvement of chapel conduct, placing a coca-cola machine in Senior Hall as an addition to S. G. A. Country Store in Converse Hall, were only two of the undertakings for 1941. An S. G. A. scholarship fund is provided from the benefits derived from the Country Store. Several distinguished off-campus speakers, and two moving pictures were spon- sored by the organization.
Three delegates were sent to the Southern Intercollegiate Association of Stu- dent Government in the spring. This convention was held at Sophie Newcomb in New Orleans. From a group of students representing as many student problems as colleges, new ideas were brought back to our campus to enrich and broaden our concept of student government. To the Student Christian Conference at Blue Ridge, North Carolina, delegates were also sent. From discussions with representatives from other schools, our delegates could not help but notice and be proud of the fact that G. S. W. C. has a great many more privileges than some other colleges; perhaps this proves that our students know how to use wisely those privileges which they have.
An open forum, held in the spring quarter each year, allows students to meet and voice any thoughts of theirs as to changes in regulations which they think worth while. In such a meeting the pot boils with suppressed ideas and hopes of students. Many new privileges have been granted later to the student body due to these lively gab feasts.
GOfERIMOT
A student court composed of Student Government officials and class presidents regulates disciplinary problems. Higher judiciary bodies are the Executive Board, and the Student-Faculty Honor Council.
Court was held by Chief Justice Parham only when the conduct of some students seemed to war- rant the need of it. The meetings were far less fre- quent this past year, thereby proving that the girls are learning how to take care of themselves.
Responsibility and privileges are distributed demo- cratically among the students. Freshmen become members of the organization after a week of intensive training and orientation.
This organization is of the students, by the stu- dents, and for the students, and it is to each indi- vidual that it looks for its constructive growth; thus, the Student Government Association takes its part in the gear works of campus life as the power chain, striving to use the power of each individual to keep moving the more burdensome loads of college.

Proving the reality of religion bv its untiring SERVICE TO our CAMPUS, THE Y. \l/ . C. A. cxists to promote the mental, physical, and spiritual development of each person in college, and to stimulate a sincerely spiritual atmosphere within our school.
The Y. C. A. is the sponsor of our vital religious services and some of our most interesting and traditional programs. Morning ^X'atch and daily morning worship service give those who attend a worthy thought to be carried and practiced throughout each day. Bi-weekly vesper programs are presented on Thursday and Sunday nights. These services bring before the students the thoughts and talents of their members of this group and, also, through these vesper programs, new and interesting ideas of visiting speakers are imparted to our campus.
Special programs are presented at Thanksgiving, Christmas, Easter, and during observation of International Prayer Week.
Among the impressive ceremonies of the year are included a Recogni- tion Service for new members at the beginning of the year and the Installation Service of the new Y cabinet members in the spring.
Serving off campus as a Y representative, is the Deputation Team, which presents programs in the churches of Valdosta and nearby towns and colleges. The weekly news sheet of the Y, the Y Aiif^lc, keeps the students informed of the weekly Y programs and happenings in gen- eral. The Vesper Choir, under the direction of Mr. Kraft, appears on radio, vesper, und deputation programs. Through the Big-Little Sister Program, a spirit of cooperation and friendliness is promoted. A Religi- ous Emphasis Week is held each year. This year Dr. Regina Wieman, noted lecturer, author, and psychologist was the speaker.
Orientation Week is planned cooperatively with other student or- ganizations. During this pre-school week of parties and instruction, new girls become orientated into college life.
Delegates are sent to the annual state and annual Southern Student Christian Conferences. Through these contacts, inspiration, knowledge, and new ideas are brought back to our campus.
Old and new officers of the Y and S. G. A. have a joint spring Retreat at Twin Lakes. Here, aims, purposes, and activities are evaluated and stock is taken of the past year's work. The new Y cabinet has a
y. Cabinet
fall Retreat before Orientation Week to make definite plans for the coming year.
The greatest aim of the Y. W. C. A. is to help each student develop an increasingly adequate philosophy of life based on Christian principles in accordance with her personality and needs. Through its far-reaching and beneficial program, it not only strives but fulfills that purpose to the highest degree.

THE '41 PliE COiE
Headaches, heartaches, i un and nervous BREAKDOWNS wcre just a small portion of the ailments suffered by "ye ole" Pine Cone editors, who hope you get as much enjoyment from the edition as we have.
In attempting to diversify the usual procedure of annual composition, the staff has tried to make the 1941 edition as informal and as characteristic of college life as possible. A number of changes were made this year in the manage- ment of the subject matter of the book, and a few new ideas have been incorporated. With the very informal nar- rative style in use, we hope we haven't stuck our necks out, but have made the copy more readable.
Following an example set by the 193 9 Pine Cone, the book is presented by the entire student body, the upper classmen sharing equally with the lower classmen the boos and bouquets which no doubt will be the result of this edition. Our editor, Susie McKey, and Alice Wisenbaker were sent as delegates to Detroit, Michigan, where the Na- tional Collegiate Press Association held its annual conven- tion. Here, under the expert guidance of leaders in the field of yearbook journalism, the delegates mapped out tempo- rary plans for the publication.
The staff's plans are to give the student body a complete and well-rounded picture book of the year's activities, stressing informality for pictures and snapshots as well as for the literary material. The usual has been casually mixed with the unusual. And don't hold us responsible if you see the Seniors cutting out paper-dolls; we just caught them in the act.
Studio portraits for the Pine Cone were taken by Mr. Veran Blackburn of Valdosta. Snapshots and other pictures were taken by Dr. Phelan and members of the photograph staff under the direction of Leecy Ann Goodloe, photograph editor.
Running true to tradition (for a change) the color and design of the yearbook have been kept a secret by the editors. Throughout the preparation of the book, the editors have been able to call on Mr. Johnny Long, of Foote and Davies Company, and Mr. Walter Dargan, of Photo-Process Engraving Company of Atlanta, for advice on all the many technical troubles into which we ran headlong.
Looking into the future through the medium of mirrors of the past, your editors foresee that long after graduation, when faces and events are so easily forgotten, that the Pine Cone of 1941 will recreate for you a pictorial and literary history of your Alma Mater.

It AMUsts, n informs, it editorializes, and, of course, reference is being made to tlie official organ of the student body, tlie Ctiiupiis Canopy. Tlie weekly newspaper symbolizes the simplicity, yet the power that is potent in this modern, progressive group of students.
Serving as an open door which receives plenty of pushes and pulls, the Cuiiopy is a clearing house for the news of the college. Even though it comes out at the end of the week, it serves as a real interpretation of the march of campus events for the students and faculty.
Each year delegates have been sent to national and state conventions. Last year Linda Summer, Jeannette Johnson, and Alice Wisenbaker attended the National Collegiate Press Convention in Detroit, Michigan, in November. Ruth Sessoms was among those present at the Georgia Collegiate Press Association in Athens in February and the spring convention in Savannah at Armstrong Junior College.
Realizing that the college newspaper, as a major extra-curricular activity, can solidify and stimulate school spirit, the Can/ pus Canopy has demonstrated leader- ship in its viewpoints directed toward student life. The success of the paper can be attributed to the great cooperation among its staff members; and the excellent "share the work" spirit is demonstrated to the highest degree when the members work side by side, late at night, so that the deadline might be met.
Second class honor rating was received for the year *3 9-'40 from the A. C. P., and the staff members of '40-'41 did an equally admirable job.
Work on the paper has brought a feeling of usefulness and pride in doing a worthwhile job, and a certainty that future editors will continue the efforts made toward a high rate of journalistic progress.
Thanks to the Canopy, a true, entertaining resume of campus news is brought to every student.

SOCK AND BUSKIN CLUB
Playing around, acting up, and making scenes IN public is all in a day's work for the dramatic club of the campus.
Although the purposes of this club are to achieve the benefits to be gained from the study and practice of dramatic art, the club members may proudly boast of having taken several trips and of having made personal contacts with outstanding people in their field.
The Sock and Buskin Club aims to bring the theater to the campus, and this year they did just that by presenting as the annual play Edith Warton's, "The Old Maid." This play has been acclaimed by critics as "one of the most distinguished dramatic successes that have graced the recent American stage." The pres- entation by the members of the club was acclaimed one of the most successful of their productions.
An initiation service and entertainment by the new members for the old was held early in October after the annual tryouts. During the winter quarter, Miss Willene Roberts lectured on the art of make-up and gave appropriate demonstrations. Radio work was done throughout the year, and in February the club held its annual frolic. In the spring quarter, the club gave a tea.
Any student is eligible for membership in Sock and Buskin after a successful tryout; however, membership is limited to thirty-five.
These girls may put on an act for you, but it is always a good one, and if the Cornell of tomorrow comes from this group, don't say we didn't warn you.

From Methuselah to Ogden Nash is the range covered in art interest by one of the largest clubs on the campus. The Fine Arts Club intends to give art its place in college affairs and to create an art atmosphere on the campus; it brings together those students who have a deep interest in art in some form or expression for the purpose of concentrated study, experiment, and practice. The club members are very cooperative, and for those of us who can't even draw a name, lend a cheerful and willing hand.
With its surrealistic ideas and its modern tempo in thinking, this group might well be known as the campus guardians of modern culture.
During the monthly meetings of the year, emphasis was placed on pencil sketching, oil painting, clay modeling of pottery and sculpture, weaving, wall hangings, and water colors.
The club played Santa Claus to the faculty and students in the fall and winter quarters by sponsor- ing, on a non-profit basis, a rental art collection. Beautifully framed reproductions of masterpieces and modern painting were offered for room or office use. Celotexing the upper Rotunda, and bringing Lamar Dodd, painter, and John Held, Jr., sculptor, to the campus, were other projects. In the spring, a trip to Atlanta for opera was enjoyed by the group.

GLEE CLUB
Always found to be in perfect tune with every activity of the campus, the G. S. W. C. Glee Club is composed of those students who possess marked singing ability. May Day, Commencement, and the Christmas Festival are made fuller with the music furnished by the do, re, mi's of the campus.
The well carried out purpose of this organization is to provide entertainment and to promote the enjoyment and appreciation of fine music on the campus; however, the club often sings at local schools and civic organizations.
During the fall quarter, the members presented a Christmas program over the local radio station. A trip to grand opera in the spring and its annual concert brought to a close the year's activities of the club.
On joining this organization, one may be so musically ignorant as to think that sharps are pawn brokers, and flats are at least two stories high; however, through the newly created voice class, one may learn the fundamentals so essential to good singing, and to carry a tune without the aid of a basket.
Limited to thirty students, the members are chosen on a basis of their ability and enjoyment of singing.

They make the students face the music and like it, and it's no wonder with the excellent musi- cians to be found in this club. The purpose of the club is to further an interest in the best type of music on the campus. The club attended an opera during the spring season of opera in Atlanta, and also sponsored the Emory Glee Club in the early spring.
Many Senior members of the club put on a recital in the spring quarter, bringing to a melodious close their musical campus activities.
Paradoxically strange is the Philharmonic Club, for they are continually getting the pitch yet always hold their jobs. And playing classical music is no easy task; sometimes, quick changes must be made from pianissimo to fortissimo; and this does not refer to an Italian road map, but means the quick change from soft to loud playing.
It is well that the club upholds the classics, for with the majority of other campus music lovers becoming champions for modern pieces, a favorable balance of musical diet is offered to the students.

History may be made at night, but regardless of the time at which epoch making events take place, the International Relations Club is always up to the minute on the latest world developments. There is no group at the college that has a better scholastic insight into the present world situa- tion. To this organization peace is the by-word and international friendship, its aim.
The I. R. C. is an organization for training the student's perception to weigh justly and wisely the true significance of the social, economic, and political forces moving the world. The organization does not seek to con- vince its members of any one point of view regarding world problems; but rather, to give them a background of facts which enables them to read intel- ligently, and to exert a wider influence in the communities where they live.
The Carnegie Endowment for International Peace presents to the club books and materials which aid the members in gaining information concern- ing their studies.
As interesting as they are varied, the activities of the organization are in keeping with its purpose. To the British ^'ar Relief, seventy-five dollars was given. The club made available a loan scholarship, and sent delegates to the Southeastern Conference on International Relations at Tallahassee. To- gether with representatives from Emory Junior, the club gave a panel discussion before the American Association of University ^'omen.
The International Relations Club holds that mankind itself must preserve its culture, its advances, and treasures — and loudly proclaims that peace to all is the solution of the serious problems of today.

Little Willie tends the test tube nursery or looks at the parasitis of society through a microscope.
Little William is tlic brain storm of the Math Division of the Math-Science Club, who portrays, by means of posters and miniature figures, the progress of math from kindergarten to college graduation. The Campus Calculus Club proudly displays the life of its heir in the show case in the hall of the Administration Building, and each quarter the mothers of Little Willie show the practical applications of math through the tactics of their son.
The Chemistry Division of the club made several field trips to industrial centers in the vicinity of the college. These tycoons of the test tube are composed of students who have a definite interest in chemistry and a willing- ness to devote spare time in research.
The Biology Division collected plants and set up an interesting exhibit.
The club proposes to stimulate interest in science and to acquaint its mem- bers with the practical nature of math and science as well as to provide for its members an opportunity to work on projects in which they arc particularly interested. In order that the latter may be done to advantage, the club is divided into three groups — math, chemistry, and biology. Knowing figures as well as Earl Carroll, these potential DuPonts look at society's parasites through a microscope.

Exponents of the best rules of that de- bunker OF DUNKING, Emily Post, the English Club should be regarded with some degree of awe since its membership is restricted to Senior college majors who must obtain and maintain a high scholastic average in order to become a member and remain a member.
Noted for its smooth talkers and quick thinkers, this club may be called upon any time to produce an intelligent speaker, to conduct an open forum or a panel discussion, and for information concerning the oldest or the latest in literature, whether it be essays, poetry, fiction or non-fic- tion.
With twenty-five as its membership limit, the English Club believes in safety in numbers; and in doing this, af- fords a greater opportunity for individuals rather than cliques to develop.
Each year the club brings one or more authors of note to the campus, and this year, Daniel Whitehead Hicky, famous Southern poet, held the student body and faculty members intrigued by the composition and reading of his latest vol- ume, "Wild Heron." Mr. Hicky also led a discussion group on the subject of poetry in its every phase.
The club endeavors to provide an opportunity for a more intensive study of literature, past and present, than is pro- vided for in the class room. Interest in reading is stimulated by the discussion group type of programs as well as by reports and speakers. The practical side is not overlooked; and by looking over each member, one might note a walk- ing example of the latest and proper information on the usage, pronunciation and play of words.

Strictly entre nous, or so it might seem to an outsider who might venture into a club meeting to find talks, programs, or just the friendly conversation carried on in French. Imagination may be silly, but it's fine the way this club removes itself from actual scenery and can imagine itself in the heart of Paris.
During the year, the discussions were centered around French cuisine, conturiers, music, literature, and art. A play was presented in French, and the public was invited to attend. Though many followed the production b)' action only, it was remarkable the way the language was so smooth flowing that the actors seemed to have tongues with a non-skid tread. Seemingly academic verbs, nouns, and pronouns appeared as colorful, adventurous tools of description and narration.
The primary purpose of the club is to stimulate inter- est in the French language and the cultural heritage of the French people. Membership in the club is limited to twenty French majors or minors, of the Sophomore, Junior, and Senior Classes, with a scholastic average of B or above.
Small, yet smart, the French Club represents peaceful independence on the campus. Interesting and construc- tive programs are combined with a congenial social at- mosphere at the club's monthly meeting. The French Club feels a definite responsibility to encourage and inspire students to broaden their horizons by becoming proficient in reading and speaking this language. At no time in history has it been more important to broaden one's knowledge of languages — n'est-ce pas?

A Tisket, A Tasket— Paschal Ring That Little Basketl
The shy green Freshman to the dignified Senior — every student is welcome to the ranks of the Sports Club. Prevailing friendliness is the theme of this group which proudly boasts "a sport for every girl" and which earnestly wants "a girl for every sport."
First in the hearts of every member and first in their club constitution is their purpose which "shall be to promote an effort for physical efficiency, to stimulate an interest in wholesome games and athletic accomplishment, to create a spirit of good sportsmanship, and to cooperate with other campus organizations in promoting and maintaining high standards of college life." With a majority of girls living with such a purpose as a part of their daily lives, it is not hard to see the useful role that the Sports Club plays on the campus and in the lives of its members.
The Sports Club is divided into two teams — Lambdas and Kappas — which are the friendliest rivals on campus. These teams play match games in fistball, basketball, American ball, and softball throughout each quarter, and the winner of each game receives points which go on the Honor Plaque. At the end of the year, the team having the greatest number of points receives the plaque. This keen, wholesome com- petition gives to the girls the exercise of mental and physical ability that equips them better for their scholastic duties.
As one of its projects and as an effort to carry out its pur- pose "of stimulating an interest in wholesome games and athletic accomplishment," the club sponsored movies on swimming, golf, and tennis.
Athletic geniuses take the spotlight in the golf and tennis tournaments and the swimming meets from which the physically fit emerge victors.
A council to direct the activities of the organization is com- posed of selected members of the club and faculty advisers from the physical education department.
Any girl making the required scholastic average and having a minimum of ten sports practices for one quarter may become a member and remain a member until she expresses a desire to have her name dropped from the roll.
To this campus where physical and mental exercise are recog- nized as requirements for a well-rounded girl, the Sports Club is a necessary organization.

Local girls make good when they unite as gradu- ates of the Valdosta High School into an effective group known as the Valdosta Club. The organization seeks to contribute its share in establishing a better understanding between day and boarding students.
The social views of this organization are paradoxically shown. They stay in their own realm, which is composed of members of their own select set, and yet they are always willing .ind able to mi.x with other groups in the promotion of good will among the college students.
The social functions of the group are of great importance. Their purpose, however, is not to "keep up with the Joneses," but to instill a greater spirit of sisterdom in its members. During the fall quarter, the club had a coca-cola p..rty for new members. New organization plans for the club were put into effect, and these plans, we hasten to add, have not been made public to date.
With the opening of the winter quarter, the club continued its social life by holding a luncheon for its own members. Ever anxious to do their part, the members were divided into committees to offer their assistance to Dr. Reade in his commendable work for the British War Relief Fund.
A dance was sponsored by the club at the end of the winter quarter for the purpose of raising money for the annual entertain- ment in the next quarter.
Climaxing the year's activities of the Valdosta Club is the en- tertainment of the Senior Class of the Valdosta High School.

Gone but not tokgotti n, .iro [Ik- aiLiniiuc of tlic cullej;c. Tile Alumnjc Association has been striving yearly to bring tlie students who arc graduates of the college in closer contact with the college; and this year's program has been planned with that main objective in view.
The purpose of the association is to combine former G. S. W. C. students into an active off-campus group. The organization aims to preserve the ideals of the college, anci to extend its influence through its membership of more than a thousand graduates. Privileges of active membership are granted to those who have received a degree or diploma; while those who have completed one year of college work are eligible for associate member- ship. The constitution of the association, which was adopted in 1 95 3, focused the ideals and aims of the organization. Looking through a crystal ball, and keeping our fingers crossed, we see that the future holds for the Alumnae Association the realization of a dream — that of organization of local chapters throughout the state which will carry its ideals forward.
The publication of a news letter is a new innovation of the group; and each year a scholarship is provided for some girl who meets the specific qualifications. In order to encourage the continued interest of its members in the association, the dormitory staff maintains a feeling of "apen house" for any returning students.
Social functions, including the installatioji ceremony, are held during commencement week for the new and old association members.

Variety is the spice of life, and tlic lives of G. S. W. C. Artist Series goers have been particularly enriched this year due to the many different types of programs presented.
Opening the seventh year of the series this year, were the dancers Winslow and Fitz-Simons, who, on November the twenty-eighth, pre- sented their newest in modern dancing. These two young American dancers presented a never-to-be-forgotten program, which had the audience in laughter one minute and in tears the next.
With the coming of January, came Egon Petri, world famous pianist. Renowned for his immense repetoire, his program included works of Bach, Chopin, Schumann, and Liszt.
Cornelia Otis Skinner, hailed as "the greatest single attraction of the American theatre," was on campus on February the seventh; she pre- sented three of her original modern monologues and her dramatic play, "The Wives of Henry VIII." Holding her audience spellbound, she seemed to fill the stage with people.
A product of our own state is James Melton, brilliant young tenor who made his appearance in March in front of a capacitv crowd from towns and cities all over Georgia.
Daniel Whitehead Hicky, outstanding Georgia poet, was presented as a feature for National Book Week. Art Week was recognized by a program given by the distinguished Czechoslovakian architect, Jan Reiner. Here at the same time were Georgia's own outstanding artist, Lamar Dodd, and John Held, Jr., sculptor.
In January, Donald Grant, well-known scholar in international rela- tions, gave several lectures and conducted open forums. During the month of February, Earle Spicer, baritone, presented a program of English and American ballads.
To add even more to these already varied programs presented as Artist Series, were speakers who covered such topics as: consumer edu- cation, religious education, landscape gardening, contract bridge, and creative writing.
With an outstanding artist in every field, the Artist Series for 1940- 41 was deemed the most entertaining of its entire seven years.
for though I may not be Queen of the May, you and I could not afford to miss one of the loveHest traditions at the college — the annual May Day cele- bration. This is a gala celebration in which nearly every student takes part — from the Queen of the May, selected from the Senior Class by popular vote, to the lowliest Freshman masquerading as a peasant.
Songs and dances on the green in which the peasant folk express the age- old sentiments regarding May Day — old English traditions featuring all classes from milkmaids to lords and ladies — the winding of the vari-colored May poles — the beautiful court pro- cession of the Queen and her court — all typify the spirit of the May Day celebration.

Club Lends Musical Background to Festival.

All of the pageantry and simple splendor that marked the celebrations of the Celtics is carried on as a tradition at the college each May Day. The festival is a particularly happy occasion since it celebrates the coming of Spring with its promise of new life. With the coming of Spring a young man's fancy may turn to thoughts of G. S. W. C. girls, but the girls' thoughts are first those of the glorious May-time cele- bration.
After the queen is crowned, there follows a colorful pro- gram of dances for the pleasure of Her Highness, the Court, and the guests.
Each year the May Festival has a new and different theme, although the spirit of it remains the same. Last year, the theme was that of "Sleeping Beauty." The lovely beauty, the hand- some prince charming, and the wicked queen were the out- standing characterizations of the pageant.

Won't you come over and play is the cry set up each year on the first Saturday in May Day by the college to hundreds of girls from the Senior Classes of high schools throughout South Geor- gia. Invited to spend the day on the campus, the girls enjoy a combined May Day-Play Day. Students and visitors are divided into teams and compete in games throughout the morning. A feature of Play Day is the Softball game held between faculty and students; and this one time of the year the students turn the tables and make it tough going for their professors.
The aim of Play Day is to help the work being done all over the country — to spread the knowledge and use of new and interesting games to other schools and to encourage friendship between the high schools and the college. There is no school rivalry, no playing merely to win, no individual honor to be gained, but a day spent in learning new games, playing old ones, and simply enjoying the comradeship of play.
Often exhibition games are played and outstanding stars of the athletic field are presented. Student ex- hibitions in archery, tennis, swimming, riding, and golf are presented to show how proficient the stu- dents have become in these sports.
The G. S. W. C. girls are attired in their regulation white gym suits, and the spread of white costumes all over the campus makes an attractive picture to the guests. A spirit of happiness, gaiety, and excite- ment grips everyone on campus; and King Fun reigns in full sway.
