To that end do we dedicate all that we are, all that we are capable of becoming; and for that end we shall sacrifice all other consid­ erations. We will, with the help of God, be the dawn of light in the darkness, the prom­ ise of peace and its fulfillment. In this Spring of nineteen hundred forty-three, we stand in firm allegiance to our country, proud to be part of the immortal heritage of a nation conceived in liberty and dedicated to the proposition that all men are created equal. — Carolyn Bowers Collett �h- n % i!; i I j: M §> i ■ - i ?dt The fountain of perpetual peace flows there, �I } l : :• r‘ *( !

America has given you a basis for living; To America you owe a return. To the world you are responsible for a workable conception of freedom. May you accept your responsibility in the American way; May you contribute to your country that individual development which leads to national growth; May you help America to bring to the world that freedom to which you have been born; May you have some part in bringing into this universe a measure of that truth which makes men free. — Gertrude Houk Fariss �FACULTY ANDERSON, CHARLOTTE M Physical Education B S , Miami University BAHRS, DR.

Sept 19—Classes started and brought to a close a perfect freshman week All good things must end! Sept. 24—Today we had the first student body meeting of the year. Dorothy Hart was elected secretary, and Peggy Jacobson and Margaret Broten were elected freshmen representatives. Green ribbons for the freshmen and entertainment exacted from the freshmen gave an informal air to the meeting. We sopho­ mores liked ill Oct. 16—I don't feel so well, diary. The freshmen gave us too much wonderful food at their party tonight I wonder if they could have had an ulterior motive? Oct 22—Oh, my back aches from picking up those enormous apples at Hood River, and my stomach aches from eating them!

The fall informal this evening was a big success. I wonder who fell for whom? Nov. 29—Stunt night! We really had a good old-fashioned time. Delta Psi Omega put on "She Was Only a Farmer's Daughter." We all felt quite wicked, drinking cider from beer mugs and banging on the tables Dec. 10—Jingle bells and crystal snowballs decorated Scadding Hall for the winter formal. Everything familiar was touched by the magic of a mid winter-night s dream. Just belv/een the two of us, diary, my dream had a tinge of nightmare! i 1 Jan. 18—Woe is me; woe is me.

April 27—Note I didn't catch up on my sleep! April 30—You'll have to hand it to the acting class, diary They gave "Letters to Lu­ cerne" tonight, and every one is still weeping. The play will probably be talked about for some time to come. May 1—Smooth, diary, smooth! That's the only way to describe the spring informal at the Lakehouse Smooth! May 6—I never saw so much work done at once in all my life! The sophomores mowed lawns while the freshmen manned the rakes at Campus Day today We dug and hoed and swept and cleaned and built booths, etc. On all counts I'm about dead tonight. May 7—Queen Betty ruled graciously over the May Carnival Fun was had by all May 22—Delta Psi Omega Awards tea. Pale pink roses and candlelight everywhere . . all in honor of the ' behind-the-scenes'' workers in the drama department! May 23—Baccalaureate Sunday! Flowing robes and swelling organ music filled our hearts with their beautiful significance. The Torchlight Procession and choos­ ing of new Angelas members completed the inspiration of this day. May 24—I'd like to meet the person who invented exams! May 28—The sophomore dinner, and the last dance of the year—the spring formal. The nostalgia of our final class gathering mingled with the gaiety of the for­ mal was almost too much for some of us! May 29—Commencement, an end and a beginning!

Secretary-Treas The fourteen members of the 1943 graduating class have con­ tributed extensively to all activities of the Junior College. They not only have taken active part in the social functions but have been well represented on the honor roll as well. The last few weeks before graduation were spent in a flurry of activity and excitement. Money-making projects, such as the auctioning of box lunches and the sponsoring of the dance and of a booth for the Carnival, were among the many springtime activities which claimed the attention and efforts of class members. On May 23, the graduates heard an inspiring Baccalaureate address delivered by the Very Reverend Charles M. Guilbert, at Trinity Episcopal Church. They gathered at the college in the evening for the traditional and very inspirational Torchlight Pro­ cession The concluding social function of the year was the Sophomore banquet at the Multnomah hotel. Here the girls spent a last en­ joyable evening together before they became almumnae of St Helen's Hall Junior College. r I •V .. < �CLASS OF '43 ARNSBARGER.

The acting class, Dorothea Thomas, Roberta Perkins, Elia Leibold. and Eleanor Dodson, gave this scintillating satire on freshman life with a spirit of fun that captured the whole audience. Candy, pop-corn, and punch added material refreshment to an evening of laughter. Intrigue, damsels in distress, and handsome heroes brightened the Novem­ ber gloom in the Delta Psi Omega Stunt Night presentation of "She Was Only a Farmer’s Daughter ' Refreshing mugs of cider and bags of creamy peanuts lent atmosphere to this old-fashioned melodrama To make the spirit of the gay nineties more vivid, an olio, the dramatization of old songs, was also given The audience showed its appreciation by responding with violent cheering and equally violent booing With the coming of the new year drama forsook hilarity and reflected the stern influence of war In January, the four members of the acting class gave a most impressive and appropriate program for the sixth annual experimental night Scenes from four current war plays were adapted by Carolyn Bowers Collett, the director, and were produced in purely experimental style without setting or costume The players were invited to repeat this production for the annual Oregon State Theatre conference at the Civic Theatre. Those who attended seemed to be deeply moved by the solemn message of the play The dramatic finale of the school year came in April when "Letters to Lu­ cerne by Fritz Rotter and Allen Vincent was presented Again the theme of war dominated the performance "Letters to Lucerne" is the story of an ex­ clusive girls' school in Switzerland and the effect war. as depicted through letters received from home, has upon the friendship and love of the girls. Outstanding in the cast were Dorothea Thomas and Roberta Perkins, who, in their respective roles of a German girl and a Polish girl, gave sensitive and moving portrayals of the heart-breaking relationships brought about through war - m • «v» ;i .

Judging points were style, suitability, and originality. Winner for the second year in the selfmade dress group was Elia Leibold in a lavender linen frock trimmed with bands of white lace daisies. Dorothy Hart's fresh blue and white dirndl with its block-printed skirt took honors in the purchased class.

The cadet officers heading the drill program v/ere Cadet Colonel Dorothea Thomas, in charge of both high school and college training squads; Cadet Major Winifred Coward, who headed col­ lege activities; and Cadet Captains Betty McCluskey, Ruth Curry, Jean Oshanic, and Dorothy Hart, who directed individual squads.

The small modernistic clock on the old-fashioned highboy threw its arms straight up, feigning horror at the hour A ruffled white curtain floated gently on the breeze from a half-open window. The robust shouts of my small twin boys who played below melted into a symphony of sound that drifted quietly into the stillness of the upper story. The sweet-faced miss of the Age of Inno­ cence smiled complacently down at me. A fuzzy panda bear and a baby doll smiled at me from their nest among the lacy pillows on a twin bed. The still figure on the gold crucifix hanging in the corner reflected its message of peace and gentleness. v. ••i ; ■.? i, . ii.ii '.

Its mate lay forlornly on the floor beside a small deflated heap of white satin and lace An open closei door disclosed a regimental row of multi-colored garments. The folds of a sheer, white dancing dress fell from a hangar hooked precariously over the top of the door The snowy white pillow accented the mop of golden-brown curls which lay upon it A pale blue blanket revealed the lines of a firm young figure v/hich lay beneath. A dance program hung slackly from a tightly clutched silken cord. My eyes turned from the bed and its occupant to the table which stood beside it.

The fates have been against me. I undoubtedly was born under an unlucky star You see, I am an unlortunate being who has an older sister. While it has always been impressed upon me how for­ tunate I am, having one only three years my senior, still I maintain that the class of older sisters should be destroyed from this earth In order to prove just what older sisters are made of (definitely not of sugar, spice, and everything nice), I shall use my dearly beloved relation as an example. "Will you please try to coordinate your muscles and walk across the room and put your coat away!" or "Stupid! Don't you know the difference between singing and howling? — and if you must sing, go into the other room and shut the door," or "Mother, for goodness sakes, I know that I didn't act like that when I was her age." Incidentally, those remarks are all made in the most sarcastic of tones. I have been told that the very first day that I arrived home from the hospital, being a “little bundle from heaven," my dear sister, after listening to me whimpering softly (all right, screaming loudly), was heard to say "Mommy, make that big dolly stop crying." This proves that she was the forceful type even at the tender age of three Another perfectly hateful characteristic that my sister has, is her size. While I am a perfectly huge person, she is only five feet high, and her smallness complicates matters greatly. While she can wear my clothes by merely turning up the hem, I would look just a bit crazy wearing hers — for I am simply not the type who can wear my skirts inches above my knees. l f k ■ f : When we are together, people look me up and down and say, "My, she is large, isn't she?" while upon seeing sister, they chorus, "Isn't she sweet?" One would think that these factors would be enough to contend wiih, but there is still another point which particularly adds to the others — my sister's intelligence. She is a "brain." I, who am just the opposite, finding it difficult to solve the simplest problems, often go to her, in all innocence, trusting her to furnish the explanation without a thought But what does she reply? "I always get along without any explanation, so why shouldn't you?" Oh, it's very discouraging! ; : Of course, at times, sister has a very maternal feeling towards me — at the wrong times. For instance, when I am going to go out on a date and want to make a very good impression, just as we go out the door, sister will sv/eetly say, "Have a good time, children " : I truly realize that all older sisters are not like mine — perhaps some of them are even human! At least I hope so. But don't misunderstand me. I love my sister. — Elsa lean Cordova i ■ ! �, V . , 8s P:»> . !• • : p- ' -|d ' . . w k,^JJ \A ViVJ U £'V- tfe { ■.•••.
