6 CAMPUS MIRROR TtT<y R ^CH?7fiFED0^6M5P The Class of ’44 Dorothy Hood Today the class of 1944 looks out upon a new horizon and the dawn of a new day; a day of chaos but a horizon of new hope. As we advance through the ensuing year it will, indeed, take the wisdom of the owl— the emblem of our class — to maintain a “true heart and a level head,” which are so vital for the very' maintenance of an existence today. However, under the capable leadership of Carolyn Taylor, President; Lelabelle Free man, Vice-President; Mary Louise Smith, Secretary; Marguerite Pearson, Treasurer; and with our motto “Let our reach exceed our grasp” — ever in mind, the Senior Class feels quite sure of its logical position and of its destination. Each of us will continue as she has done in the past to make the class of 1944 a suc cessful one, and the year one well worth remembering. Spelman Students Association Marguerite Pearson, ’44 Every college aims to make her students able citizens of the future. This is done through allowing the students to aid in the administrative projects of the school. This was the basis for the organization of the Spelman Students Association in the spring of 1942. The new organization made success ful and admirable progress under its first president, Miss Helen Rice, ’43. The first year’s work laid a sturdy foundation for fu ture building. The executive committee, made up of stu dent representatives, a faculty advisor and an alumnae representative, has drafted a constitution which is ready to be presented to the administration and the student body. Ella Tyree, now president of the Students Association, cannot be expected to carry on the business of the organization without the united effort of the entire student body. The year 194344 cannot be successful without the full cooperation of every Spelman stu dent. This is your organization, run by your representatives and the issues before it are voted on by you. You are the Spelman Students Association, and without you and your support nothing can be done for you or by you. The Class of ’45 Rebecca Guyton, ’45 The class of ’45 once again weighs anchor, raises its sails and embarks on the sea of enlightenment. With our emblem, the Lamp, to guide us, we shall acquire more knowl edge, abundant happiness and formerly un attained heights of success. Our class officers are: President Julia Brown Vice-President Madeline Patterson Secretary Althea Palmer Under their capable leadership we shall fill the Lamp with “oil” (our experiences), light it and hold it high, so that it may guide the path of our sister class, the Fresh men. Sporting Round In the world of sport, no concession is made to the famous saying, “History repeats itself—,” whether in one year, two years, or eight years! In the event of Saturday, October 16, it was eight years. Yes, eight years had passed since the Maroon Tigers of Morehouse had beat or tied the Morris Brown Wolverines. Morehouse made the first touchdown of the game with Pearson of Kentucky carrying the pigskin over the goal line. Morris Brown in the last minutes of the second quarter made a touch down to even the score, 6-6. This game was especially eventful be cause, aside from the fact that an eight-year record of Morris Brown had been broken, the Morehouse team was playing its first game of the season, coached by Mr. Vernon Smith, a Morehouse graduate of the class of 1933. Spelman is squarely behind the Maroon Tigers and is anticipating being represented at the next games which will be played in Harper’s Field. Please bring home the bacon for Spelman. Upperclassmen Entertain Freshmen On October 9 the first social event of the season took place in Howe Memorial Hall. The occasion was a getting acquainted eve ning for the purpose of giving opportunity to the upperclassmen and the freshmen for becoming better known to one another. A well varied program and cheerful atmosphere helped promote a successful evening. The upperclassmen began the ball rolling with representation from Morehouse North and South. Faustina Hall, Bobbie Latimer, and Barbara Mosely composed a trio from The Class of ’46 Johnnie Hogg, ’46 We, the members of the class of ’46 who are back a second year to greet old friends and classmates, regret that there are those who did not also return. We are especially happy to make new acquaintances among the freshmen and extend a hearty welcome to them. This year Spelman is fortunate to have the largest Sophomore enrollment of its col lege history.
