started the year with a "get-acquainted” party at Jackie
Howard s home. This was such a success that the president,
Nancy Cannon, soon followed the example with a slumber
party at her home. November 3. The annual Valentine
dance. Sweetheart's Ball." was sponsored by the sophomores. This dance was one of the prominent events of the
year The decorations, a myriad of cupids and hearts, framed
a background for the King. Larry Moyer, and the Q ueen.
Jackie Howard.
On March 28. the soph omore class gave a parcel post sale
at the Mother's Club meeting. Being a class who in the past
had exercised an unusual amount of initiative, they soon
took on the new project of selling candy and cookies for the
Junior Red Cross fund drive. The finale of the year came
when two slumber parties were held at the homes of Jackie
Howard and Pat Russell.
Our hats are off to this class, who generously donated
money which they had planned to use for their class week
end to the March of Dimes so that others less fortunate
might have the chance to enjoy privileges which they have
been denied.

�SENIOR CLASS HISTORY

;
In ihe year of our Lord, one thousand, nine hundred an cl forty-eight, the good ship St. Helen s
signed on eleven new members of the crew. Shipmates in this “Freshman Division were: Mary
Ann Bailey. Diane Drumb. Georgie Dietz. Betty Ann Garner. Pat Lee. Doyle McKenzie. JoAnn
McDonald. Rica Hussa. Ellen Walter. Leslie Wilkins, and Nancy Moulton.

These new “ sailors on our ship of learning” brought with them a new tradition that has become an important part of the ship s schedule — the freshman class week end. This initial
'“liberty" met with such success that it is now an annual event.
The next year brought great changes as freshmen became sophomores. Six of our shipmates
transferred to other vessels and we signed on four new ones. New members of our crew were
Audrey Welch, Janet Wineberg, Ann Williams and Violet Hope.

During our sophomore cruise we sailed to Long Beach. Washington, for our week end. A
Valentine formal sponsored by the “ division” was a great success. After a mighty battle we
emerged victors in the “ship s' Junior Red Cross drive.
Our junior year brought more activity than ever We lost two shipmates but signed on Molly
Cashin, Paula Barner. Helene Fischer, and Joyce Walker. JoAnn McDonald and Diane
Drumb. who were not aboard our last cruise, sailed with us again.

Looking through the log we see Red Letter Day. a brief reign of legal piracy and an event

which we. the class of 1952, lake the credit for having initiated as a new tradition. There were
parties galore, and the class week end at Cannon Beach. Then there was the biggest and the
greatest, the Junior-Senior Prom.
For our last cruise we signed on five new crew members: Garland Sorenson. Bonnie Sparks.
Sally Cohn, Janet Ross and Geri Filion We sponsored the annual Christmas da nee and once
again copped honors in the Junior Red Cross drive. There was the famous day we abandoned
ship under cover of early dawn and spent a glorious “liberty" at the beach. And then there was
our week end at Newport, our last memorable fling as shipmates.

Now we are seniors, at the helm, and on our final cruise. With the cheers of the crew ringing
in our cars we leave this good and faithful vessel — to sign on another ship — for another cruise
— on another sea.

�SENIOR WILL

WE. tlie Senior Class of 1952, being of sound mind, body and memory, \v ho toil industriously.
once in awhile, so that we may be allowed to finish our days at this institution of much teaching. learn­
ing and knowledge, this month of June, in the year nineteen-hundred and fifty-two. do forever dispose
of the worldly possessions that we no longer want in the following will:

ARTICLE I

To our much-loved faculty, we give our utmost thanks because they let us graduate in the customary four years.
ARTICLE II

•:
■

■

To the Juniors we leave the annual, the school paper, and the title "SENIORS ”. Also , we extend
to them our Traditions ”, such as they are. an d hope that they will be cherished and passed on.
ARTICLE III

:

Now, as we are going to depart from this institution as students, and never to return (the teachers
hope!) we make our last will and testament to be executed by all those who receive benefits:
I. Paula Bamer, will my midnight oil to Mary Ellen Coleman and my extra ski poles to Suzic Holley.
I. Molly Cashin. lea ve a certain black wig in "Coppelia to Pat Clancy, knowing that she will never
let her hair grow that long; also let it be proclaimed that nobody is getting my pin. I am taking it
with me.
I. Sally Cohn, will my bottle of green wave set to anyone who is scissor-happy, hoping that she will
use it as faithfully as I have for the past two years; and my good behavior record to Karen Peterson.
I, Diane Drumb, will to any deserving underclassman, my well- worn brogues, products of my freshman year.
I. Geri Filion. will my natural blond streak to those who have to resort to the Purex Bottle, and my
original French translations to Darlene Drake.
I. Helene Fischer, being slightly myopic, will my modest fortune in Japanese yen to a scholastic fund
to a student named Jones from Lower Slobovia and my love letters (all '150 of them) to Karen Peter­
son: and to Barbara McGraw, my tantalizing collection of signs.
I. JoAnn McDonald, will my attraction to Irish Lads to my little sister, Sharon Ford; and my pas­
sion for "Red Tootsie Pops to the BIG BLACK MAN.
I. Doyle McKenzie, will my place in the choir pew to Patty Lewis, and my
Helen Farmin.

■

I. Jan Ross, will my ambition to be a journalist to Chloe Kill, and my suppressed desire to initiate all
incoming freshmen, namely, my sister. Margo, to Mary Stewart.

;
I

I, Garland Sorenson, will to Sara Bosatli all the energy which I spent in fruitless attempts at dieting:
to Diana Barnard my poodle cut an d the agonizing days I spent trying to make my hair grow.

r

I. Bonnie Sparks. leave my ability to get rid of engagement rings to Pal Hedin. who will probably
need it . . but DICK!! I keep!!

i

I. Ellen Walter, will my translations of Caesar to anyone who doesn t care w hat kind of grades she
gets.
I. Joyce Walker, will my Boris Karloff haircut to anyone fool enough to let Pal Hedin or Shirlee
McGreer cut her hair; the problems of the boarding dept, to next year s Boarders prexy. (plus a box
of aspirin/—with the hope that she isn t allergic to them); and my BLACK ALRICANS to B.J.
and Paula Griffin.
I, Audrey Welch, leave . . . and will my long-winded, long-distant phone calls to anyone who can afford them — I couldn’t (my poor incidental and Mrs. McDonald!); my PASSION for I HE
places in San Francisco to Shirlee McGreer — I know she II overuse the welcome — and my ability
to drag Ukiah s Main street to ’ Little Girl Alicia . . .
J, Leslie Wilkins, do hereby bequeath and will any ski enthusiast all my love for the ski patrol, char­
treuse and black Fords, and also my brief (?) conversations in ye ole ph one booth.
I, Janet Wincberg, will my place at the race track to anyone who wants to earn or lose some extra
dough, and my letters from Herbie to Geri Barry.

Yearbooks from 1921-1968 were known as The Delphic and were created by St. Helen's Hall students attending in their high school years. St. Helen's Hall was an all-girls school that pre-dated Oregon Episcopal School. In 1969, the yearbook evolved into The Legend-Delphic with the addition of Bishop Dagwell Hall and male student attendees. After 1986 the yearbook branding begins to singularly list "OES" with a few volumes referencing "The Delphic" or "The Legend Delphic". Yearbooks helped to chronicle the school year's events and activities, in addition to listing each student and staff member.</text>

                <text>This is an OES yearbook from 1953. The yearbooks were published annually after 1925. Yearbooks from 1921-1968 were known as The Delphic and were created by St. Helen's Hall students attending in their high school years. St. Helen's Hall was an all-girls school that pre-dated Oregon Episcopal School. In 1969, the yearbook evolved into The Legend-Delphic with the addition of Bishop Dagwell Hall and male student attendees. After 1986 the yearbook branding begins to singularly list "OES" with a few volumes referencing "The Delphic" or "The Legend Delphic". Yearbooks helped to chronicle the school year's events and activities, in addition to listing each student and staff member.</text>

�'Dedication
\j

It is with deep gratitude that we,

N

the Seniors of nineteen hundred and
fifty-four, dedicate this, our Delphic,
to those who have made St. Helen's
Hall a better school, who have con­
tributed vastly to its beauty, unity and
traditional strength . . . that strength
which can come only through united
effort and devotion. With humble re­
spect we acknowledge their work and
!

revere their memory—the alumni of
St. Helen's Hall on this our eightyfifth anniversary.

The Senior Class of l5h.
Prophesies this for '6U:
Diana Barnard got the Nobel Prize in Chemistry this year,
What she*s making secretly is the only thing we fear.
Joy B. (her name's too long to spell)
Thinks a truant officer1s life is simply too, too swell#
Sue Breck is an actress, what a treat!
"Lady Macbeth" was her latest feat.
Sun Valley, also Timberline are Nancy Cannon’s Mecca,
But yesterday, we hear, she had a little wreck-a.
Jo Ann Fields, we’re proud to say.
Has her own TV show—"Queen for a Day."
Life Magazine has a new efficient head.
She’s Sharon Ford Vishinsky, who recently was wed.
Jane Gilcrest, cast adrift on a sea of men.
Is happily trying to pick and choose between two guys named Glen.
Postmaster General Henry has lowered the rate
Of the airmail stamp »• • we all think it’s great!
Did you know that Jackie Howard
Teaches young'uns? She's no coward!
Marilynne Hutchings is doing fine, we see.
She's an SHH housemother, and happy as can be!
Another Jim Thorpe, Barbie McGraw isn’t slow,
And at the Olymoics she stole the show.
Margie Miller, our tender-hearted nurse.
Is still full of witty sayings, which are always very terse.
For being "Mother of the Year," B.J. got a placque-e,
Her charming children always bounce from Joy right back to J^ck-ie.
Ann Stegner now officiates at the Portland Traffic School,
She was the first woman ever to break every single rule.
A gold plate on an oaken door bears Cathy Wise's name *. •
From managing props at SHH she's risen to heights of fame.

The Council's main function is to serve as

                <text>This is an OES yearbook from 1954. The yearbooks were published annually after 1925. Yearbooks from 1921-1968 were known as The Delphic and were created by St. Helen's Hall students attending in their high school years. St. Helen's Hall was an all-girls school that pre-dated Oregon Episcopal School. In 1969, the yearbook evolved into The Legend-Delphic with the addition of Bishop Dagwell Hall and male student attendees. After 1986 the yearbook branding begins to singularly list "OES" with a few volumes referencing "The Delphic" or "The Legend Delphic". Yearbooks helped to chronicle the school year's events and activities, in addition to listing each student and staff member.</text>

We, the Senior class of nineteen hundred and fifty-five, dedicate this
Delphic to the joint efforts of our principal, Mrs. Gertrude Houk Fariss,
and our Board of Trustees. Faced with the critical problems in main­
taining St. Helen’s Hall, this loyal group has conquered almost insur­
mountable obstacles. With great admiration and appreciation we look
upon the selfless qualities of these men and women who have made our
senior year the most gratifying of our school career.

MARIE LOUISE FISK

(

Madame Fisk, much respected, much admired, and much loved during the four

r

years she devoted to St. Helen’s Hall, has left us with an acute awareness of the fine­
ness of her subtle qualities. The memories of her years here arc most pleasant, for
she gave not only of her knowledge, but also of herself.

Behold us, gracious Savior,
In girlhood's morning bright—
Look on us in Thy mercy.
And guide us with Thy light.
Life’s journey lies before us,
Go with us all the way.
So shall we love Thee truly,
And serve Thee day by day.

Those gathered here together
Will soon be far apart.
But in Thy love and service
Unite us heart to heart,
And keep up pure and loyal
Where’er our lot may be,
True daughters of St. Helen's
And true our God to Thee.

So when Thou comest in glory
To gather in Thine own.
And we shall stand for judgment
Before Thy great White Throne.
Then place us at Thy right Hand
And hearken to our prayer,
Of all St. Helen’s daughters
Let none be missing there!

The clown will soon close the final curtain on this year's production, but he will not forget the
performance of which he has been a part. It is with sincere best wishes that we of the staff present
to you the drama which you have helped to create. We hope that we have done justice to the part
each one of you has played, and that you will be proud of the 1955 Delphic.

Yearbooks from 1921-1968 were known as The Delphic and were created by St. Helen's Hall students attending in their high school years. St. Helen's Hall was an all-girls school that pre-dated Oregon Episcopal School. In 1969, the yearbook evolved into The Legend-Delphic with the addition of Bishop Dagwell Hall and male student attendees. After 1986 the yearbook branding begins to singularly list "OES" with a few volumes referencing "The Delphic" or "The Legend Delphic". Yearbooks helped to chronicle the school year's events and activities, in addition to listing each student and staff member.</text>

Standing firm on lasting foundations, medieval
monuments were built to the Glory of God and
continue to inspire mankind to lift its eyes to the
skies. 'With gratitude the Class of 1956 dedicates
this medieval issue of The Delphic to our parents
who have given of themselves so unselfishly to help
ns build lasting foundations on which to construct
happy and useful lives, continually inspiring ns to
look to the Heavens for all guidance and succor.

Unlike feudal times when the king’s sceptre symbolized absolute authority, our modern student

d

council constitutes a representative body of all classes of students with equal votes for all members.

.

Their policy is one of democratic, rather than autocratic, rule in government.

As the code of chivalry held the highest ideals to which knighthood aspired, so the members of Helenas
aspire to maintain their code of honor. Chosen because they have given evidence of strength of
character, willingness to serve, and ability to lead, the Helenas girls serve as the school's altar guild for
the chapel.

As the scribes of medieval manuscripts preserved for posterity the contribu­
tions of their day, so we, the Delphic Staff of 1956, hope that our efforts
to preserve for you a few memories of this school year at the Hall will prove
well spent.

Most of our school life is spent in the classroom "boning” for acceptable grades
for admission to college. However, unlike medieval times, not all our academic
work pertains to theory alone, as seen from these pictures of Open House.

Valentines Day was an occasion for our first DADS AND DAUGHTERS’ DINNER. His Excellency,
the Honorable Elmo Smith, Governor of Oregon, appeared in the dual role as father and speaker of the
evening. The event was so successful, it was voted to make it an annual event.

This year our own chapel provided the background for one of the oldest and most cherished traditions at the Hall, the
presentation of the Christmas story by the drama class. The Fulness of Time brought the message of the birth of Christ by
means of Scripture and hymns and gave an inspiring climax to the Christmas season.

May Fete festivities, sponsored by the Student Council, have officially welcomed spring to the school through the
years. With all the pageantry of medieval society Her Royal Majesty, Queen Alansa I, preceded by her court of
princesses, walked up the scarlet carpet in Scadding Hall to the throne where Lois Martin, Mistress of Ceremonies,
performed the coronation rites. Following the investiture of the court, the audience enjoyed a program of dancing,
readings, and music taken from the annals of May Fete celebration of ages past. Always an exciting feature of the
evening is the annual tapping of the new members of Helenas. Marcia Olsen, president, presented each initiate with
the Helenas’ symbolic yellow rose. The coronation ball with the festive motif of "Maypole Magic" concluded the
evening’s activities.

Yearbooks from 1921-1968 were known as The Delphic and were created by St. Helen's Hall students attending in their high school years. St. Helen's Hall was an all-girls school that pre-dated Oregon Episcopal School. In 1969, the yearbook evolved into The Legend-Delphic with the addition of Bishop Dagwell Hall and male student attendees. After 1986 the yearbook branding begins to singularly list "OES" with a few volumes referencing "The Delphic" or "The Legend Delphic". Yearbooks helped to chronicle the school year's events and activities, in addition to listing each student and staff member.</text>

�BEHOLD US, GRACIOUS SAVIOUR
Behold us, gracious Saviour,
In girlhood’s morning bright—
Look on ils in Thy mercy,
And guide us with Thy light.
Life’s journey lies before us,
Go with us all the way,
So shall we love Thee truly,
And serve Thee day by day.

Those gathered, here together
Will soon be far apart,
But in Thy love and service
Unite us heart to heart,
And keep us pure and loyal
Where e’er our lot may be,
Time daughters of St. Helen’s
And true our God to Thee.

So when Thou contest in glory
To gather in Thine own,
And we shall stand for judgment
Before Thy great White Throne.
Then place us at Thy right hand.
And hearken to our prayer,
Of all St. Helen’s daughters
Let none be missing there!

MAY COURT

36

The May Fete celebrates the coming of spring at the Hall. A queen and her court of
six princesses reign over this beautiful pageant. This year, the crowning of Queen
Carol I started an evening of song, dance, poetry, and fun. The theme of the pageant—
“Over the Rainbow”—was beautifully carried out by a rainbow made of lights shining
onto the stage while the entire room was thrown into a sea of darkness. The theme of
the program and dance was further carried out by the rainbow colors in the dresses
of the princesses. At the conclusion of the program Queen Carol invited her guests to
join her at the Coronation Ball.

Yearbooks from 1921-1968 were known as The Delphic and were created by St. Helen's Hall students attending in their high school years. St. Helen's Hall was an all-girls school that pre-dated Oregon Episcopal School. In 1969, the yearbook evolved into The Legend-Delphic with the addition of Bishop Dagwell Hall and male student attendees. After 1986 the yearbook branding begins to singularly list "OES" with a few volumes referencing "The Delphic" or "The Legend Delphic". Yearbooks helped to chronicle the school year's events and activities, in addition to listing each student and staff member.</text>

RUTH ROSE RICHARDSON

DEDICATION

1

The Class of 1958 proudly dedicates this issue of the DELPHIC to one who has given unselfish service
and constant inspiration to all of us who have worked with her. Her long and loyal devotion to the Hall
— its high academic standards, its precious traditions, and its moral and spiritual ideals — has set an
example in our hearts and minds. She is a teacher, an adviser, a confidant, and a friend, whose unfailing
help has made this annual possible and whose rare sense of humor has made working on it both a privilige
and a pleasure which we shall aways remember and cherish. With heartfelt admiration and affection we
honor in this way one who has given to us so much of herself — Ruth Rose Richardson.

MAY FETE
Spring was officially initiated into our school by our May Fete ceremony. The theme,
“Miracle in May,” was carried out this year by six princesses in pastel shades of chiffon.
The ceremony was opened with the presentation of the queen and her court by Mistress
of Ceremonies, Helen Beecher. A royal program followed consisting of singing, dancing
and choral reading. The Queen, Nola Binnicker, led her royal subjects in dancing at
Scadding Hall, which was gayly decorated with colorful umbrellas and bright spring
flowers.

The fifth annual Hobby Show, sponsored by the
alumnae and parents groups of the school, was pre­
sented May 9 and 10. For this weekend the school
was transformed into a gay carnival spirit, following
its theme, “Circus Daze.”
Clowning chimpanzees and gymnasts contrasted with
the traditional showing of antiques and private col­
lections . . . highlighted this year by trophies from
famed Asian and African big game hunts.
But the bargain hunter and the hungry were not for­
gotten. Mcmontos, weird and practical, were offered
to the shoppers, while the hungry could take their
choice of Danish or Chinese delicacies, or the Ameri­
can Hot Dog.
After the fun-filled and frantic weekend, the weary
parents and students trudged home, grateful for an­
other successful show whose profits would provide
those “extra” school improvements.

�Winter sports arc confined to indoor volleyball games and other gym
activities, although many of the girls find skiing on Mt. Hood a
stimulating exercise during the winter week ends. Spring, naturally,
brings basketball, swimming and horseback riding. But all year
round the girls enjoy the spirit of healthy competition and team­
work in an atmosphere of good sportsmanship.

Another successful year for the Student Council has been completed under the able guidance of Miss
Irene Campbell. Again the chosen representatives of the student body have tried to act as a link between
the administrative staff and the girls in order to uphold the standards and ideals of of the school. Be­
side sending representatives to various regional conferences and the summer workshop, this student
governing body sponsored the Student Council week, school teams, and presented the May Fete Corona­

activities of the council were the annual Birthday Dinner, the costume Halloween Dinner, the Thanks­
giving Dinner, and an informal Boarders’ Dance.

Creating a greater interest in social service, the Junior Red Cross Council, under the direction of Mrs.
Elizabeth Johnson, completed a year of worthwhile projects. Among these were the collections of toys and
books for needy families at Christmas and the filling of a gift chest for disaster areas in cooperation with
Catlin and Jefferson. The Council also sponsored an enrollment drive with movies and assemblies, and
food sales as money-making activities. Each year delegates are selected for the Junior Red Cross Leader­

chapel services and at all the major school functions. It has performed at the Christmas Program,
the Fine Arts Program and the May Fete.

The name of our annual, Delphic, comes from the Oracle of Delphi where Apollo, the god of
light and music, gave sage advice to all who came. This year’s staff, under the direction of Miss
Richardson, has worked loyally to gather all the faces, happy memories and traditions, into one
book which will serve as a lasting reminder to each girl of her experiences.

Helenas is a society which honors those girls who maintain a high standing in scholarship, who
have shown leadership and who have proved their willingness to serve the school. This year the
girls have served primarily in the library. A study of the school’s past and of its traditions was be­
gun at the society’s meetings, where Miss Caroline Paige and Miss Katherine Arnold, alumnae of
St. Helen’s Hall, spoke of the Hall as they knew it as students and teachers.

One of the most active and enthusiastic

yarn octupi, apples and even themselves as slaves for a day, they went on to
sponsor the Valentine dance, “Sweethearts’ Swirl.” Could one attribute their
sense of humor and industriousness to their adviser, Miss Richardson?

A flurry of caps and gowns, goodbyes and promises to meet again, ended the
final year at St. Helen’s Hall for the seniors. The sale of food, octupi and school
supplies, and auctions all helped raise money for the Christmas formal, ' Frosted
Fantasy,” and the senior gift to the school. May the scholastic accomplishments,
traditions and Christian standards they have gained guide them through life.

�TRINITY CHURCH, the scene of graduation for the girls of St. Helen’s Hall, blends all
its dignity to the strains of Pomp and Circumstance, signifying the close of another year.

BEHOLD US, GRACIOUS SAVIOUR
Behold us, gracious Saviour,
In girlhood’s morning bright —
Look on us in Thy mercy,
And guide us with Thy light.
Life’s journey lies before us,
Go with us all the way,
So shall we love Thee truly,
And serve Thee day by day.
Those gathered here together
Will soon be far apart,
But in Thy love and service
Unite us heart to heart,
And keep us pure and loyal
Where e’er our lot may be,
True daughters of St. Helen's
And true our God to Thee.
So when Thou comest in glory
To gather in Thine own,
And we shall stand for judgment
Before Thy great White Throne.
Then place us at Thy right hand.
And hearken to our prayer,
Of all St. Helen’s daughters
Let none be missing there!

                <text>This is an OES yearbook from 1958. The yearbooks were published annually after 1925. Yearbooks from 1921-1968 were known as The Delphic and were created by St. Helen's Hall students attending in their high school years. St. Helen's Hall was an all-girls school that pre-dated Oregon Episcopal School. In 1969, the yearbook evolved into The Legend-Delphic with the addition of Bishop Dagwell Hall and male student attendees. After 1986 the yearbook branding begins to singularly list "OES" with a few volumes referencing "The Delphic" or "The Legend Delphic". Yearbooks helped to chronicle the school year's events and activities, in addition to listing each student and staff member.</text>

Every girl who graduates from St.

We, the class of 1959, fondly dedicate this, our Delphic, to Miss

only has taught us the story of mankind, but also has been our
helpful adviser and guide, showing us the meaning and worth

CLASS HISTORY
When remembering our freshmen year, we find it hard to believe that we actually
thought our days were busy and confusing. Perhaps it was the time spent becom­
ing accustomed to high school and the Hall. The only projects we knew were
raising money for the Delphic and establishing a financial status that would aid
us in the more expensive upperclassmen years. With our sophomore year came
our dance, “Oriental Evening,” a dinner for the graduating seniors and a beach trip
in which the class was drawn together as a friendly working unit. The junior year
found us with many more activities for our spare time. Red Letter Week and
dance, another dinner for the graduating seniors and the Junior-Senior Prom
were our largest and most rewarding projects.
Senior year with its privileges and responsibilities gave us infinitely more activi­
ties. Social projects were the dinner for the boarding department, decorating for
the Christmas formal, “Chateau Noel,” a dinner for the freshmen at Barbara
Christensen’s home, and our senior day which was held at the Anderson cabin in
the mountains near Kalama, Washington. On the more serious side we have pub­
lished the Delphic and with our senior gift have established a fund to assist the
newly introduced exchange program with Rhodesia, South Africa. Breathing a
sigh of half relief and half regret, we close this o.ur finished history.

SENIOR PROPHECY
Here it is, 1965, and letters are pouring in to Mrs. Fariss from the Class of ’59.
These six years have scattered our girls to the four corners. The list is coming out
right now, so let’s check and see what the ’59er’s are doing!
CAPP1E BOWEN has made a big name for herself solving the world’s problems
as the successor to “Dear Abby.”
JUNA HAYES has realized her greatest desire—the establishment of the Bay City
Cafe Expresso.
SHEILA FINK is in Africa using her three doctoral degrees to cure rare water
buffalo diseases.
The greatest ’59er talent, BARBARA CHRISTENSEN, is living in the lap of
luxury from the royalties of her smash hit, “Autumn Leaves.”
LINDA NASH has returned to the Blackfoot Reservation in Montana, where she
is raising sheep and living off government subsidies.
HELEN BEECHER has a profitable business selling palm trees to homesick
Tahititians.
PAT HARRIMAN, as you have probably all heard, is secretary to Nikita
Khrushchev.
SALLY BOWE is happily pumping gas in Grants Pass.
JILL NEUBERT, true to her academic calling, is the spelling teacher at St.
Helen’s Hall.
ALICE HARRINGTON found her life work playing the tambourine for the
Salvation Army.
MARTHA BOYER is a prominent member of the beat generation and is first
Lady Mayor of North Beach.
JEANETTE ANDERSON has moved to Texas, where she owns a 200-acre
horse ranch.
CLAUDIA WELCH is basking in the sunshine of Hawaii and is managing a Pine­
apple Plantation.
The Rt. Rev. SUE STEVENS has become the first Lady Bishop of the Diocese
of Oregon.
MARCIA LESSING, our favorite family woman, is now the old-fashioned mother
of twelve children.
VAL JOSLYN, now engaged for the fifteenth time, has no immediate plans for
the future.
So here is a salute to the ’59er’s. May their lives always be filled with happiness
and joy.

Rosalie Sparrow is remembered with warmth and affection by all the girls who
knew her. Walking to class with her, playing baseball with her in the spring sun­
shine, or just sitting and talking with her, gave you the feeling of happiness to
know such a kind, thoughtful person. Rosalie’s cheerful smile, welcoming gesture
and genuine interest in others won all to her.

MORNING COMMUNION

Every morning before classes begin, the school gathers for Morning Chapel to praise God and
to gain strength and wisdom to live the new day to its fullest. On Wednesdays an early cele­
bration of Holy Communion is held for communicants of the Episcopal Church where senior girls
have the opportunity to serve as acolytes, and once a semester a Choral Eucharist is sung by the
whole student body. All boarders meet twice a week for Evening Chapel, a time of quiet worship
the girls always treasure. The privilege and honor of conducting this service goes to the seniors.
The small Mary Chapel is always available for private meditation and prayer.

Alumnae Award

MARY RODNEY AWARD
The climax of the presentation of school honors on Class Day comes with the announcement of the winner
of the Mary Rodney Award. This honor, named for the school’s founding principal, is conferred on the
graduating senior who has best reflected the qualities of character and decorum which have been the standards
of the “Hall” throughout its ninety years. Her selection is made by the principal and faculty.
ALUMNAE AWARD
Each year the St. Helen’s Hall Alumnae Association gives a tea honoring the new graduates and welcoming
them to membership. It is at this time that the Alumnae Award is presented to the senior who has consistently
demonstrated loyalty to school ideals and traditions, selfless school and community service, constructive
leadership, and sound scholarship.
DAGWELL CUP
The upperclassman who—in the opinion of her fellow students, the faculty, and administrative staff—has
tried to exemplify Christian character throughout her everyday life during the school year receives the
Dagwell Cup. The announcement of the winner is made by the Bishop at the Helenas Chapel in May. Her
name is inscribed on the permanent trophy, and on Class Day she receives a replica of this cherished cup.
MARY AWARD
The junior or senior who plays the role of the Holy Mother in the traditional Nativity observance is chosen
by the student body and school staff. Gentleness of manner combined with a radiance of strong inner faith
and beauty are the guiding principles in the selection of the school’s Mary. This year the honor went to
Sue Goold.

book which will serve as a lasting reminder to each girl of her Hall life.

During the week before Christ­
mas vacation, the Hall is trans­
formed into a Christmas wonder­
land by a whirl of festive
activities. Red roses and fir
boughs gaily bedecked “Chateau
Noel,” our formal dance which
started off the week. The Senior
boarders decorated their rooms in the holiday spirit and the rest of the boarding department competed for
prizes by decorating their doors. The day students also joined in the festivities by decorating the doors of
the classrooms. The week ended by a banquet in Scadding Hall where Santa paid a visit and there were
gifts for all.

CHRISTMAS PLAY

The Christmas program, The Light of the World, presented by the speech classes
and glee club, directed by Mrs. Collett and Mrs. Harrington, expressed meaning­
fully and movingly the true spirit and significance of Christ’s Nativity.
43

�In celebration of the Hall’s Ninetieth Birthday, Mrs.
Collett wrote and directed “Shucksford Hall Daze,” a
light and amusing satire on Hall life. The presentation
of the play was preceded by open house in both Upper
and Lower schools, and, following the play, refreshments
were served.

mmm

The Birthday Cake, which played a great part in the two
evenings’ festivities, was a model of the old Hall building, created and decorated by Madame Irene Wolfson.

MAY DAY ACTIVITIES

Lydia Reynolds as Olivia and Ditti Weinel as Viola

Returning to the. customs and practices of Elizabethan
celebrations of May Day, Hall girls made merry all day,
observing the rites even to the early rising to gather flow­
Judy McDonald as Puck
ers for decorations. In the afternoon came the traditional
crowning of the May Queen and the investiture of her
court, followed by the presentation of Idylls for the May Queen—a medley of English madrigals,
maypole dancing, and scenes from Twelfth Night, As You Like it, and Midsummer Night’s Dream.
In the evening the festivities continued with a formal ball honoring the queen and her court with
Van Armitage’s orchestra.

Princess Martha Boyer, Princess Linda Nash, Princess Claudia Welch, Queen Cappie Bowen,
Mistress of Ceremonies Judy Carson, Princess Sue Stevens, Princess Helen Beecher, Princess
Marcia Lessing.

The rites of spring were ushered into the school year with the
coronation of Queen Cappie I. The gay bouffant gowns with em­
broidered roses and bright colored sashes enhanced the .radiant
beauty of the queen and the members of her court. The honor of
Mistress of Ceremonies this year went to Judy Carson, who dis­
patched her duties with grace and charm.

The beautiful entrance to Trinity Church reminds this year’s senior class that they will soon
be entering the door of adult life and responsibilities.
The class of 1959 was honored by having the song, “We Sing to Thee,” written especially for
their graduation. The music and lyrics were composed by Mr. Carl M. Beecher, father of a
graduating senior.
WE SING TO THEE
We sing to you as parting time draws nigh —
Your children we, who bid you now good-bye.
The one true God be gracious unto you —
St. Helen’s Hall, our Alma Mater true.

Our thanks to you for study, work and fun;
For help in trouble, and for victories won.
The one true God be gracious unto you —
St. Helen’s Hall, our Alma Mater true.

Long patiently you led us by the hand,
Along the path that leads to wisdom’s land.
The one true God be gracious unto you —
St. Helen’s Hall, our Alma Mater true.

We come at last to our commencement day,
And ask your blessing as we go our way.
The one true God be gracious unto you —
St. Helen’s Hall, our Alma Mater true.

Being a representative on the Olds and King's HiBoard this year has been a wonderful experience.
Meeting new friends, modeling, attending slumber
parties, banquets, and working as a salesgirl filled
the year with fun and excitement. Olds and King
always welcomes you. Not only is it a top store but
also a conveniently located shopping place.
Congratulations to the new hi-board member. I hope
this experience will be as rewarding to you as it
was to me.

Yearbooks from 1921-1968 were known as The Delphic and were created by St. Helen's Hall students attending in their high school years. St. Helen's Hall was an all-girls school that pre-dated Oregon Episcopal School. In 1969, the yearbook evolved into The Legend-Delphic with the addition of Bishop Dagwell Hall and male student attendees. After 1986 the yearbook branding begins to singularly list "OES" with a few volumes referencing "The Delphic" or "The Legend Delphic". Yearbooks helped to chronicle the school year's events and activities, in addition to listing each student and staff member.</text>

A MESSAGE FROM THE BISHOP
I am sure diat the fundamental reaction of those
privileged to be graduated from St. Helen's Hall is one
of gratitude—not gratitude because you are leaving, but
gratitude for what has been your privilege. We have been
concerned throughout your days here with the whole
personality—body, mind, and spirit. The whole person­
ality is also God’s concern. Young people are sent to St.
Helen’s Hall because parents want no part of their chil­
dren’s latent potentialities neglected or allowed to wither.
No parent can do more than provide a child with as good
an opportunity as he can for him to develop the body, the
mind, and the soul. All parents with insight into the
factors that do most to utilize the potentialities of their
children feel inadequate and frustrated. Most parents wish
they could go back and bring up the same child again.

There are so many characteristics and potentialities which
could have been aided or abetted in ways different from
those used; so many unfinished buildings; so many man­
sions that we feel could be more stately. It is characteristic
of good parents that they suffer a guilt complex about
their parenthood. Gratitude, then, is your response to
parents and teachers and friends who try to give you the
best in life.
We hope that we have made you intellectually curious.
We hope that we have stimulated in you a hunger and
thirst for righteousness. We hope that we have developed
in you some measure of self-control.
May God bless you all as the days unfold. May you
always be proud of St. Helen's Hall and worthy of her
heritage. Our world desperately needs young ladies who
have been given your opportunities.

This year, in addition to the new students, we wel­
comed three new teachers to the Hall. Mrs. Judy Charlton
and Miss Josephine Day instructed the freshmen in Eng­
lish and history. Mrs. LaDonna Hutchinson, instructor
of physical science, biology, and chemistry, replaced Mrs.
Elizabeth Johnson, who is on a leave of absence for the
year teaching at the U.S. Air Force Base near Reykjavik,
Iceland.
Besides being our teachers, friends, and confidants,
the faculty works “above and beyond the call of duty"
preparing college recommendations for us. We will al­
ways be indebted and grateful for their generous help.

NOURISHMENT AND GROWTH

;

i
i

����FRESHMEN

Those young, impressionable freshmen had an eventful year.
They suffered the terrors of initiation and of dance cleanup com­
mittees with humor and good sportsmanship. They even remained
brave enough to undertake the Senior Commencement Tea, which
we will always remember with fondness and—we hate to admit it—
sentimentality.

�SOPHOMORES
In nine short months the sophomores did much to make us proud of them.
They led, by a considerable margin, all other classes in their contributions to the
United Fund; they made charming bids for the Christmas formal; and they gave
“Forget-Me-Not,” which was indeed an unforgettable dance.

JUNIORS

The junior class was perhaps the busiest one
raising money for the many activities which they
sponsor. Their annual Red Letter Week festivities
were full of fun and excitement, climaxed by the
Red Letter Day Dance and the crowning of the
“Belle of St. Helen’s,” Diana Fanning. Their food

sales and car washes helped to raise money for
the Junior-Senior Prom. This year’s Prom, Mint
Essence, was held in the Crystal Ballroom of the
Benson Hotel. Congratulations, juniors, for add­
ing so much color and gaiety to the year.

RECESSIONAL The Helenas members have the honor of carrying the Cross and flags which
precede the choir in the daily Morning Chapel.

Our school life centers around our Chapel. Each morning a brief
Matins begins'the school day, twice a week Evensong is held by
the boarders, and Wednesday morning the Holy Eucharist is held
for communicants of the Episcopal Church. The spiritual guidance
which we receive will always remain with us.

ACADEMICS

}

Daily classes provide our intellectual nourishment.
Lively discussions, lab experiments, work on those term
papers—all make each school day a challenge.
Unfortunately the major production of the drama
class, The Letters of Elizabeth Barett to Robert Browning,
came too late in the school year to include a pictorial
account in the book.

feeling of being back in school when they visited the Fine
Arts classes in action during their production of Scenes
and Songs. An informal coffee hour followed the perform­
ance and classroom tour.

A. Mrs. Wolfson and Diane Terjcson proudly demonstrate St. Helen’s
Hall’s new language machine to Mrs. Matthew McKirdie. By
listening to foreign phrases and repeating after the taped voice,
students can perfect their accents and comprehension in foreign
languages more readily.
B. A course in speed reading and comprehension designed to improve
the skills of both rapid and slow readers was given this year.

helping where service was needed.
This year the members have as­
sisted in Chapel services, helped
in the library by cataloguing

�SENIORS
SENIOR CLASS HISTORY
We emerged from our freshman year confused, brow­
beaten, and humbled by it all. Through a dance in our
sophomore year, “Sweethearts’ Swirl,” which appealed to
romantically minded student body, we regained status.
Encouraged, we plunged into our junior year with a car
wash, Red Letter Week, and a spaghetti dinner—all con­
tributing to our major production — the Junior-Senior
Prom.
Our Senior year we found to be the most rewarding of
all. We “slaved away” on Delphic and on school work
but still found time to draw the student body closer with
a dinner for the freshmen and our senior sponsored
Friendship Week. But we found the high point to be
“Senior Sneak” at Sharon Parks’ cabin in Delake.
Commencement came at last and we greeted it with glad­
ness for what was ahead, and yet with sadness for what
cannot be regained.

Donald Julie Mack, Sue Goold, Sharon Parks,

Every Friday morning Second Semester, the seniors don gray caps and
gowns to signify that graduation is approaching.
TRINITY CHURCH, the scene of graduation for the girls of St. Helen’s
Hall, blends all its dignity to the strains of Pomp and Circumstance, signi­
fying the close of another year.

BEHOLD US, GRACIOUS SAVIOR
Behold us, gracious Savior,
In girlhood’s morning bright—
Look on us in Thy mercy.
And guide us with Thy light.
Life’s journey lies before us.
Go with us all the way,
So shall we love Thee truly.
And serve Thee day by day.

Those gathered here together
Will soon be far apart,
But in Thy love and service
Unite us heart to heart,
And keep us pure and loyal
Where e’er our lot may be,
True daughters of St. Helen’s
And true our God to Thee.

So when Thou comest in glory
To gather in Thine own.
Arid we shall stand for judgment
Before Thy great While Throne;
Then place us at Thy right hand,
And hearken to our prayer,
Of all St. Helen’s daughters
Let none be missing there!

Being on Olds and King's Hi-Board this year has indeed been an honor and privilege,
and I have gained a very rewarding experience that I will never forget. Meeting many

new
Olds and King’s
Hi-board
Representative

friends from different schools, going to slumber parties/ the mountains, the beach,

modeling in fashion shows, and working as a salesgirl are some of the many wonderful
activities that have helped to make my senior year full of many wonderful memories.
I wish to thank Olds and King for all they have done for me throughout the year.
Congratulations to the new Hi-Board member and I hope you will profit as much from
this experience as I have.

Yearbooks from 1921-1968 were known as The Delphic and were created by St. Helen's Hall students attending in their high school years. St. Helen's Hall was an all-girls school that pre-dated Oregon Episcopal School. In 1969, the yearbook evolved into The Legend-Delphic with the addition of Bishop Dagwell Hall and male student attendees. After 1986 the yearbook branding begins to singularly list "OES" with a few volumes referencing "The Delphic" or "The Legend Delphic". Yearbooks helped to chronicle the school year's events and activities, in addition to listing each student and staff member.</text>

Something seen, yet invisible, and something
felt, yet intangible . . . what is it which makes so
deep an imprint, yet cannot be described? A cer­
tain essence, special to our school ... a permanent
touch of beauty showing forth in all our acts for
all our lives. What is this elusive quality? It is the
sum of St. Helen’s Hall Intangibles, numerous and
various, yet all contributing toward making us our
finest selves . . . traditions and customs that change
and grow and alter to become a part of new genera­
tions ... as well as of old . . . mysterious factors
that make this particular moment inspiring and be­
loved. On these Intangibles we wish to build the
theme of our lives as well as the theme of our
DELPHIC.

Every young wanderer must have
a path to follow; and our path
toward Christian womanhood has
been well lighted. Our guiding spirit
has exemplified by years of service
the noble character and stability of
a true woman. We, the Class of
1961, humbly dedicate our souls to
further nourishment and our Delphic
to our beloved Carolyn Collett.

" What is it to cease breathing,
but to free the breath from
its restless tides, that it may
rise and expand and seek God
unencumbered?’

DIANE JEAN TERJESON

Our memories of you, Diane, are an ever­
present part of our lives. Your giving of
yourself with no thought of virtue in such
giving, your vision that awakened in us the
dreams of timeless youth have become a
part of all that we are, and through us, will
become a part of those who come after us,
as season follows season in the lifetime of
St. Helen’s Hall. It has ever been held true
6

that love "knows not its own depth until
the hour of separation;” but for us, there
is no separation that the soul cannot span.
You are in our laughter, our studies, our
chapel hours, our relaxation, our aspira­
tions. You walk among us as a fragrance
sensed but not seen, adding its essence to
the spirit that is truly at the heart of our
school.

Our faculty is the very heart-beat of our school. They throw a light
across our ascending path. With tireless energy they educate our minds
and feed our souls, equipping us with self-assurance, intellectual curi­
osity, and awareness. Their very spirit endows us with a strong sense
of responsibility, self-discipline and moral strength. As students under
them, we have been given a candle to light the pathway of our future.
May we, in turn, light that candle for those who follow.

For ninety-two years St. Helen’s Hall has been engaged in educating girls. Over these
years a constant parade of young women have marched from its hallowed halls into the life
of every corner of this nation and into many parts of the world. In my short time as Epis­
copal Bishop of Oregon I have found former St. Helen’s Hall girls who have taken their
places as wives, mothers, teachers, writers, leaders in the communities in which our Church
ministers. Their Christian character and convictions and their ideals have strengthened
the communities wherever they are found. As the publication of the 1961 Delphic takes
place, St. Helen’s Hall faces new horizons. The State of Oregon plans to run a modern
highway through our present geographical position. We hope to build elsewhere. New
land has even now been acquired. Tlie members of the Class of 1961 do not need to be
convinced that new buildings are essential, but a building is not an education, nor is a Church
Edifice the Christian Faith. The new buildings will lack the ability to stimulate many valuable
memories which will be yours. I pray that our people will see in you and all St. Helen’s
graduates living reasons to invest in the Hall’s continuance. The Christian education, which
is your possession and heritage, is an ingredient which today’s social order can ill do without.
May the Lord always be with you as you continue your education and your life in the Faith.

TO THE CLASS OF 1961 . . .
You, who have chosen the Hall Intangibles as the theme of your Delphic, must surely have understanding
and love of those Intangibles. You must have deep realization of the truth that the Intangibles of this life are
the Tangibles of Life Everlasting. Now we see, as through a glass darkly, the elusive shadow of all that is
the reality of existence.
May inspiration light the candle which guides your footsteps over the mounting pathway of steady
growth toward new horizons; may vision lift your eyes to the highest and finest in life; may action open
the doors to accomplishment and fulfillment; may achievement crown your dedicated efforts to make honest
use of your hidden resources—the gifts which have been entrusted to you for nourishment; may gratitude
flood your hearts with a true understanding of the standards, purposes, and ideals of St. Helen's Hall.

Each of you is given the grave responsibility and the rare privilege of translating intangible values into
the daily strength and courage and integrity which life demands of those who would give generously and
and receive richly. For you, I would add this challenge: As each day passes, interpret in thought and action
concept of the Hall Intangibles, so that these may indeed become tangible through your living

At St. Helen’s Hall we live in an environment which en­
courages both spiritual and academic growth, to the end
"that our daughters may be as polished comers of the tem­
ple”. Our day-to-day activities are carried on within walls
which encompass an atmosphere rich in Beauty and Tradi­
tion — the Beauty of learning and newly awakened hunger
for knowledge that leads to Vision; the Tradition of almost
a century on which to rely, by which to measure our achieve­
ment, toward which to reach as a lasting goal.
We experience spiritual growth within our Chapel, where
the light from the candles that burn within the very heart
of the Hall — candles of companionship and love, worship
and devotion — enters into the heart of every girl. This
light guides us through each day of the present and will re­
main with us through each day of the future.
Last but surely not least, we are stimulated through our
academic growth, which gives to our minds constant chal­
lenge, always tempered by beauty, tradition, and spiritual
awareness. Our constant endeavor is to understand and work
toward the goals set before us at St. Helen’s Hall, so that
we may indeed come to reflect truly all of those Hall In­
tangibles symbolized in the words, "that our daughters may
be as polished corners of the temple”.

�We participate in sports, social events, organizations
and all the physical activities of our school in order to give
balance and contrast to the rigorous mental discipline of
study and worship. Through participation in sports we meet
new friends and learn to put into play the social amenities
which we have learned through our participation in such
events as dances, teas, and dinners. We learn to engage in
conversation with people we have just met, to become inter­
ested listeners and interesting speakers. Through participation
in our organizations and clubs we learn leadership and par­
liamentary procedure, and we put to use the rules of etiquette
and sportsmanship which we hope to carry with us always.
Participation rounds out our lives, teaches us concern for
others as a part of social adjustment, and makes us aware of
our responsibilities as social beings. Participation is a part
of the physical fiber of St. Helen’s Hall.

This year our traditional Christmas Dinner
became a "giving” party. We decided to
bring gifts to be distributed to unfortunate
children through the Red Cross, thus in turn
creating a true Christmas spirit among our­
selves.

"Silver Shadows” was the theme of our
Christmas Dance. The Senior Class did all of
the decorating and carried out the theme with
silver snowflakes drifting from the ceiling
and a beautiful pendant center-piece.

The Christmas Play, "How Beautiful Upon the Mountains,” was an inspiring performance,
written and directed by Carolyn Collett. The choir and speech groups carried the narra­
tive, linking scenes of the three-act play.

be one of the best of the St. Helen’s Hall an­

money, organizing layout, and writing copy; but
somehow we have managed to meet the dead­

celebrated the completion of our hard work. Our
great hope is that we have presented truly the
Intangibles of St. Helen’s Hall!

The function of the Altar Guild is to care for our chapel. Through
performing such tasks as brass polishing, arranging of flowers for the
altar and the statue of St. Helena, and caring for vestments of our Chap­
lain, the Altar Guild members come to know the very inner being of the
chapel. Through serving it, they learn to appreciate it more and more.

. . . we labor to identify ourselves with its goals and
purposes . . . some of us eventually reflect its highest

The young and untutored approached with hesitant steps, not wholly sure of their
places within the gates. Once having braved the ordeal by fire—new girl initiation!—they
rapidly gained both strength and self-assurance and performed with dexterity and everincreasing skill their many menial tasks, until, at last, they found themselves ready to under­
take even the Senior Commencement Tea and knew that they were really a part of the life
of the Temple.

absorbed in the regular school routine, and all found time for various activities in addition
to their school work. As a yearly project, the Sophomores continued from their Freshman
year the sale of St. Helen’s Hall pennants. At Christmas they made and sold tree decora­

gave an informal dance and contributed to the commencement festivities by having a picnic

The Junior year is never an easy one, but the Class weathered it very well indeed! The
annual Junior Red Lerter Week, taking for its theme "Cargoes from Many Lands," was
climaxed by the dance, Sea Shanty, and the crowning of the "Belle of St. Helen’s,” Dari
Litchfield. Sales of every type added dollars to the junior treasury, carefully hoarded for
the lavish and wonderful Junior-Senior Prom. The Junior Class really worked —and enjoyed every minute of their toil!

much conferring and taking of examinations for college entrance, the glamorous May Court,
the exciting "Senior Sneak,” the class came through with confidence and poise, and an
ability to put first things first. Perhaps no previous senior class has been as fully aware
that idealism must be made tangible through service.

Idealism and. Service . . . The Fourth Pillar

�TRINITY CHURCH, filled with all the wonder of commencement — as we approach its
mighty altar may our hearts be fulfilled in Christ, and may our lives show forth our
fulfillment!

BEHOLD US, GRACIOUS SAVIOR.
Behold us, gracious Savior,
In girlhood’s morning bright—
Look on us in Thy mercy,
And guide us with Thy light.
Life’s journey lies before us,
Go with us all the way,
So shall we love Thee truly,
And serve Thee day by day.

52

Those gathered here together
Will soon be far apart,
But in Thy love and service
Unite us heart to heart,
And keep us pure and loyal
Where e’er our lot may be,
True daughters of St. Helen’s
And true our God to Thee.

So when Thou comest in glory
To gather in Thine own,
And we shall stand for judgment
Before Thy great White Throne;
Then place us at Thy right hand,
And hearken to our prayer,
Of all St. Helen’s daughters
Let none be missing there!

                <text>This is an OES yearbook from 1961. The yearbooks were published annually after 1925. Yearbooks from 1921-1968 were known as The Delphic and were created by St. Helen's Hall students attending in their high school years. St. Helen's Hall was an all-girls school that pre-dated Oregon Episcopal School. In 1969, the yearbook evolved into The Legend-Delphic with the addition of Bishop Dagwell Hall and male student attendees. After 1986 the yearbook branding begins to singularly list "OES" with a few volumes referencing "The Delphic" or "The Legend Delphic". Yearbooks helped to chronicle the school year's events and activities, in addition to listing each student and staff member.</text>
