Activities 2

In planning this yearbook the staff decided to magnify the college year by thinking big. This meant that trustees, faculty, staff, seniors and freshmen should not be compartmented but that all five groups should be united and considered as the Centenary family. Thus the bottom of each page was reserved for the family group as a

ably a few sleepers, letter writers, conversationalists, gigglers and note passers. This is common to all classes. Yet there seems to be a higher rate of students occupied with more important things, the discussions taking place.

Victory makes it all worthwhile Whether it's splashing through the rough waters enemy lines, dodging an opponent with a quick move or smashing a ball across the net, we possess the desire to win. Without this desire where would we be? It doesn't matter if the team consists of eleven members or just two; it is the enthusiasm and the

of competition, driving the ball through

harmony that count. Working toward a victory with hours and hours of practice is only fulfilling

and satisfying when that goal is reached. - Catherine Helfrich

Believers keep theater exciting When the curtain falls and the applause of the audience is ringing in your ears, it's all over. Months of hard work have come to an end, but the elation over this accomplishment makes it all worthwhile. Putting a show on takes more than memorization of lines by those playing roles behind the proscenium. A successful production takes people who are dedicated and truly love the theater, people who are willing to give of their time and energy to create costumes or stage sets or to work behind the scenes or out in front of the house to make the show run smoothly. It takes the kind of people who really believe that the show must go on. - Catherine Helfrich A. - Ronald Walters of Hackettstown as

Abram and Sarah Pryor'72 as Ludmilla shared principal roles in Valentine Katoev's "Squaring the Circle." John Carey directed the farce on Russian life for an April 18-22 run in the Little Theater.

Artists beautify the commonplace Emotions and creativity are depicted through an individual's art work. The artist may choose to express these feelings on canvas, with watercolors, charcoals or any other numerous techniques. Without words the artist can explain the thoughts and ideas that are running through her head. What better means of self-expression is as beautiful as an original work of art? - Catherine Helfrich A. - Ralph Della Volpe, art chairman of Bennett College, N.Y., exhibited his oil, "Windy Beach," and other paintings January 16-February 4 in the Ferry Art Gallery.

Visitors express new out looks Learning involves more than classrooms, books and tests. Chapels relieve the students of the tedious work of reading and allow them the pleasure of sitting and absorbing the spoken word. The girls are stimulated with new thoughts and ideas after one of the various speakers has expressed himself. Chapel is thus a chance to broaden horizons and expand viewpoints. - Catherine Helfrich A. - Talking about "Honesty and Fair Play" at the October 5 chapel program, in the bottom row, were Miss Abbie Rutledge, physical education; Miriam Brown, Carol Allen B.S.

Two years of hard work, dormitory parties, roommates, tears, mixers, fraternity parties, term papers and homecomings have ended. Your college days become part of the past. All the memories may not be happy ones but they are sustained by pictures, scrapbooks, yearbooks, letters and various remembrances.

Women's colleges are here to stay Centenary was founded largely on faith and determination when there wasn't much else with which to found a college. John Gardner once made a comment to the effect that every devastating difficulty is only a giant opportunity in disguise. This is the spirit which gave birth to Centenary, and this is the spirit which can reinvigorate her in a time

when some of the prophets are heavy with pessimism. Of course, it is time for us to reexamine our collegiate purposes, more than carefully reorder our priorities and then direct our major efforts to deliver effectively on the highest of these priorities. At present I continue to agree with Dr. Russell Carpenter, secretary of Smith College, when he

said, "You can make a tremendous case that womm's liberation has caused an increased level

of appreciation of women's

colleges.

least

it has caused womear to think about who they ate."

An article in the New York Times stated that girls are having second thoughts about coeducation, that there is a swing back toward the single sex college, particularly in the case of women, and here are some of the reasons for this swing back. 1. Given the present status of women, it is in the women's college that women can be assured never to be second-rate citizens. 2. In many acadernic disciplines women still tmd to play a subordinate role in the classroom and in scholarly competition.

3. Even though equality of opportunities, advancement and pay is the only acceptable goal, the pattern of life for women will remain different, and women's colleges can respond to this. Women's colleges over one hundred years ago were founded as a means of liberating women from that enforced position of inferiority that had until that time excluded them totally from higher education. These colleges today, however, must ever be alert to the changing times and must adapt their programs to best fit the needs of their constituency. Contenary is doing this and will continue to do so in the days which lie ahead. We are on the move. The future of our institution rests in our hands, but if we are to continue to move it is imperative that we have the fullest of cooperation from every person - be that person a student, a faculty member, a staff member, an alumni member or an administrative officer. I am optimistic about the future of Centenary and hope that the future drearns I have for this institution will become realities, let it not be said of us that we failed to carry the torch that was so brilliantly lighted on this spot for us some 105 years ago. - Dr. Edward W. Seay

lands, new people and new ideas. Each day we strive to absorb the knowledge that is being offered to us and each day we change and grow with this experience. The teachers guide r'r, on our journey, taking great satisfaction in imparting all the knowledge they hold for us. When one of their students shows great interest in a subject she is encouraged to explore it further, just as the floundering girl is saved from drowning. Through this cooperation between students and teachers much is learned about ourselves and the world around us it is a total learning experience. This voyage does not have to end with the gradu.ation ceremonies; it is a trip that should last a lifetime. -Catherine Helfrich

Dance Group, Iiterary magazine, theatrical productions, Art Club, Chess Club or psychology Club they all offer you a means of involving yourself with others who share your mutual goals and interests. Many girls find the different organizations exciting and interesting diversions from the books and classes they are faced with day after day. No matter where your interest lies, there is a group of girls who share it also. The bonds of friendship grow from day to day, uniting the girls with one another. They become involved. Every girl plays a major part in making her organization tick. Without each individual's dedicated work, the groups would dissolve. College life does not consist merely of books, lectures, tests and term papers but encompasses the exchange of ideas and opinions between friends. - Catherine Helfrich

Revision, change get its support Covernance of the students symbolizes the Studmt Government Association. At the meetings officers and representatives discuss and suggest ways to improve the life and structure of the college.

The two committees under SGA are the Student Life Committee and Curriculum Committee. These discuss questions and grievances of the students and also suggestions to help the college.

This year SGA brought about the minimummaximum dormitory artangement and devised a plan to enable men to remain overnight in Reeves on weekends. Members also passed a plan for the possession and consumption of alcohol on campus. They then took this plan to the board of trustees, where it was unaminously passed. Smoking in the new dining toom was another issue they had

approved.

Predict yearbook to be trendsetter Hack '72 entered four competitions, emerging from all with honors and from two with double awards. Trendsetter (the only college-university or junior college to be selected) and medalist (ten percent of the first-place winners) were double honors awarded to Hack '72 by Columbia Scholastic Press Asso-

ciation, Columbia University. As the judges read and rated the books, Director Charles R. O'Malley said, "they watched for and noted the new trends. "These are not the radical departures, the flashy innovations, the spectacular presentations which are often one-time efforts but rather the changes, the improvisations, the things that are based on sound, basic principles of layout, makeup, graphics, that are possible to any school, any staff, any year, if and when full advantage is taken of the possibilities inherent in the publishing art." Ten books were found to be trendsetters, a new designation. Through it the board of judges honor those staffs and advisers who, "setting a new trend, become the pioneers, the inaugurators of this new classif ication." Hack, one of lhe-1,972 trendsetter books, was the "only book from a college-university or iunior college to be selected as a trendsetter," Mr. O'Malley said.

"You could set a new trend," said National School Yearbook Association, Memphis, Tenn., in giving the yearbook a double award - A (excellent) for the regular critical service and a special A + for art-photography-design. The critique explained that "the idea of placing portraits here" (as running 95 CENTENARY

copy at the bottom of the pages and integrated with all sections) "is one of the first new ideas on this troublesome problem to evolve in the last 50

years." Future Journalists of America, School of Jour-t972 edinalism, University of Oklahoma, gave the tion its top award, Americana, for the second consecutive year, the only times it has been entered in the competition. The critique summarized with "a
