After swearing to write every night, I've let the whole first week go by without a word. There has been so much to do—re- ceptions, class assembly every morning, swift changes from pajamas to evening clothes, to angel robes, and so on. Yesterday, after hearing Lou Conway—the first person I met at Wellesley—lead chapel, and was that a thrill! I moved from Eliot to Davis. Last night the Barn Reception, awfully' exciting, with Miss Knapp making a lovely speech. Today, though, I'm more than a little homesick. I know it's silly, but I have the most depressing feeling that I've left all my college friends behind in Eliot. The fresh- men here seem to be a grand bunch, and no doubt I'll get to know them, but all the same . And the seniors are so impressive I'm afraid to open my mouth. A funny thing happened this afternoon. I was lying on my bed writing a letter, and a girl down the hall was laughing the queerest laugh I ever heard—more like crying than laughing—when in walked the junior who lives two doors down, with the most dis- tressed expression on her face. She thought the noise had been issuing from my room, and that I was having a regular weeping fit, so she came in to comfort me. I thought it was mighty decent of her. We laughed about it, and she stayed and talked quite a while. Classes begin tomorrow, and heaven help me. This place is literally teeming with brightles, and if I were to be exceedingly honest with myself I'd admit that I'm scared. Wouldn't it be ghastly to flunk everything? Ah, well! October 11 Well, the serenade is over, and it was one of the loveliest sights I ever hope to see, with the lanterns weaving in and out along Wellesley's winding paths. I could hardly listen to the singing for watching the way the lights wavered on the grass and fell in hundreds of leaf-shaped little patches on the dark trees. I shall never be able to think of Wellesley without thinking of the sound of girls' voices at night, and the echo of that last clear "Wellesley" flung back to our waiting silence at step-singing. I wrote Mr. T. today—he was so anxious to know what I thought of everything, particularly classes and such. Now he will know, and if he doesn't think I've lost my head in admiration, he'll be pleased. I told him about the thrill of being set loose| on a sea of background reading for seventeenth century lit., and how right he had been when he urged me to plan to like zoology. I thought once that there just couldn't be any other class anywhere that would turn me inside out and make me want to yell for excitement the way his used to, but I've found out I was wrong. And the nicest thing is that I was able to tell him so and know that he would be glad. N. B. Am at present working on the problem: is the Wellesley girl perfect, as I have so fondl^^ imagined, or has she just the tiniest, and perhaps rather comforting faults? November 5 Things happening thick and fast. Prof. Blanchard's lecture last week on La Corse still has my head spinning, what with so much French at my disposal that I can actually say "Fermez la porte, s'il vous plait." Thank heaven there wei'e pictures. M. and J. said that it was a grand lecture, to one familiar with the tongue. Well, I suppose people have struggled with French 102 before this and been none the worse for it. The Boston Symphony opened the concert series, playing the 7th, for which I always have had a failing. It's what you might call convenient to hear some music once in a while no farther away than Alum. This afternoon at Billings the Hampton Quartette Pai^c 114 c^3V,c^SV.c^2V,c^^V.c^?«V3C^Sl.c^\>c^m3C^§5V.c^V, LEGENDA'' l934 — sang spirituals "Ezekiel Saw de Wheel" has been zooming around in my head ever since, not mixing any too well with the characteristics of the protozoans. The trees have been so lovely every way you look that it's impossible to write about them. And whv, after all—as if one could ever forget! December 11 Yesterday afternoon Countee Cullen read his poems, "Judas" among them, and that lovely ironic epitaph. And tonight Myra Hess playing the Brahms Variations on a Handel theme—something to remember for a lifetime, along with Bernice's voice and the tilt of her head last week in Ar/a da Capo. And here am I with a quiz tomorrow, and unable to think about anything except the moonlight on the lake and the tragedy of being stupid. College so far has been one long succession of emotional ups and downs—but I guess the ups have been more than worth the downs. January 12 Exams are in the air these days. I wonder if they're as bad as the sophomores would make us think? A good many people seem to have survived them! V. and I went for a long walk out i^Washington Street this afternoon, laughing over Tradition Night. It will be such fun to see it again in '34, when we shall know so many more of the faculty. I get fonder and fonder of V. It was she who urged me to start going to the life class every Friday afternoon in the Art Building. My attempts are pretty poor; but it's an unusual opportunity to draw from a living model, and I've had great fun out of it. March 14 J. and E. and I went in to Boston on the special this afternoon to see Elizabeth the OiLeen. A woman behind us said that it was well acted, but not exactly true to history—which struck me as a terribly silly remark, though I didn't know just why until, on the way home, E. told us something Miss Hart had said in their criticism class about the difference between historical and artistic truth—how the artist's duty was to give unity and meaning to the haphazard events of actual life. Day before yesterday was Honors Day, and very impressive, with the wind blowing the gowns as the academic procession came into chapel. Professor Compton spoke on the romance of study—and I think I saw what he meant, particularly as I look ahead to next year and the next and see how beautifully one course is going to fall in with and bulwark another. It is tragic that we have so little time and are so oppressed with odds and ends of responsibilities that we can never hope to take a third of the college work that we'd like to. And yet other things are important, too, and I think that fact is pretty generally recognized here. Take the Model Leapue that met here last week, for instance. I imagine those people would say that their college work had suffered, but that the experience was altogether worth it. No doubt it's a wise combination of the two types of activity that is one of the greatest opportunities college affords. I'll have to learn the trick, and stop my intemperate spurts of unmitigated study (!) followed by spurts of unmitigated relaxation. March 17 This was a big day in the little Wellesley girl's life, for we turned wreckers for an hour and went pretty far toward demolishing the old Ad. Building. Its pitiable lack Page 115 6 LEGENDA'' i934 c^3v,c^sv.c^sv,c^sv3c^2\oc^sv3c^^v.c^^v.c^2v.c^2v. of resistance to our blows gave one pause—that our administrative offices have been housed in that gallant little shack for fourteen years! No class after 1934 will have the memory of it, which seems a shame, for it stands so perfectly for that Wellesley spirit which endures gaily and turns adversity into new strength. We went from the destruction directly to the formal opening of the new building, singing "America the Beautiful" under the arches of apple tree court. For all its beauty, I don't see how the tower can ever mean so much to future generations of Wellesley girls as it means to those of us who saw it rise and who realize its striking contrast with the chicken coop. May 2 Spring is coming—nay, 'tis here. Yesterday, all in white, we cheered the first bride of '31 on to victory, marched into chapel, and on to the Sophomore numerals on the hill. I snapped a picture of their formation of the tower as the}^ sang an appropriate version of "The Bells of St. Mary's"—hope it turns out well. There is still a sharp wind, but it smells like May at last, and what more could one ask? Tonight we went to Shakespeare Society's Romeo and Juliet, which was quite beyond description, really. Ginny Thayer and Joan Pierson as Romeo and Mercutio were unbelievably good; and the whole thing was so lovely that I came home with a worse case of Spring Fever than ever. La!, no more of this. I must to my books. May 21 Well, '34 didn't come out so poorly at the Field Day, if you ask me. B. and M. were much thrilled at winning the archery contest, and are at the moment glowing modestly amid congratulations. I should have made myself take the time to write a word or two last week about Float Night and Tree Day, for I can never recapture the feeling that seeing those two Wellesley events for the first time aroused. Even the threats of rain could not lessen the delight of those lighted floats rounding the dark cove, or of those dancing figures on Tower Court green. We all tend to forget the beauty of Wellesley until something like that brings it upon us so forciblv that for days we can see nothing else. June 7 In the heat of exams I take a moment off to put a last note in m)' journal for this year. Someone is playing the carillon in the tower, and the sun is streaming over the campus as if there were no other place in the world where its light were needed. V. and D. are here writing letters and stud3dng. Every now and then one of them sighs, and we all smile. D. is quite surrounded by photographs of Greek sculpture, and just now she laughed and said, "I ask you, isn't this fun?" It is fun, all of it, even the things we are always groaning about. I suppose no two years can ever be quite the same, but if next year is anything like this, I shall not be dissatisfied!

October 3, 1931 I am growing old. Sophomore year—even the very beginning—does something to you, and suddenly you realize that you aren't the youthful creature you once were. It came over me as I took my Freshman, E. W., to Barn reception—Arnold Bennett's "The Stepmother" very charmingly done—when we went down to the ballroom to dance. Last year as a Freshman, I remember distinctly standing amazed at the door, wondering why the group of dancers looked so unusual. The fact that several hundred girls were dancing without a single man struck me as the oddest and yet the prettiest sight in the world, a kaleidoscope unmarred by a single spot of black. Tonight it seemed perfectly natural. What didn't seem natural, though, was the thought that a whole new group was here, taking our place. The younger generation's pushing us out, but we're getting a foothold on the upperclass ladder! M. and I talked of this, during the afternoon when we dashed into Boston, (the quarantine being lifted) —to see "Winter's Tale" presented by the Stratford Players. Boston was lovely, and we did so want to stay in and walk through the Garden, for the sunset was very nice. October 11 Several days ago G. and I took a walk down Tupelo. Of all the places around the Campus, that seems to bring me peace, for if it's warm as it was today, the water laps the shore so lazily in the sun, and Press Pen's house stands serenely on its lawn across the Cove. One is quite alone down there. Not a soul in the Hunnewell gardens—the hills over to the right are quiet, and only the sun is there, beating down on the moist, shiny rocks. That's really happiness—to be with a friend whose whole make up is attuned to one's own, in a place quiet and full of beauty, with one's mind and heart at rest. Last night was our serenade for Freshman. I loved it every bit as much as last year. It was the first cold night, and as we swung down the hill from Stone and Davis, the lanterns gleamed like green ice. The effect of the long white line as I turned to look back, is something which will never leave my mind. The class seemed very much of a unit at that moment, and I had a real sense of "college spirit"—although I hate that expression. Later G. and I walked home by the lake. The moon and stars were out and brightly shining. November 9 Much has happened, and as usual when there is something to put in a diary— haven't the time. October 19 we celebrated Miss Pendleton's twentieth anniversary of Presidency. There was the Academic Procession, which always thrills me beyond words, —the colors in it are so breath-taking,—Miss Clark's scarlet hood from Edinburgh, Miss Hawk's ermine from Oxford, the purples and the blues. Miss Knapp spoke, followed by Mrs. Atkinson. She outlined the college history and made a splendid speech in tribute to Pres Pen. The 23rd we elected class officers: Kass, President; Peggy Hull, Vice-President; Jackie Peck, Recording Secretary; Anne Lord, Corresponding Secretary; Janet Emerson, Treasurer; Edith Levy, Song Leader; M. K. Britton, Polly Starks, Mae Bliss, Executive Committee; Adra Armitage and Betsy Taft, Factotums. Tlie ceremony of announcing them is so distinctly a part of college that I shall never forget it. Nowhere else will I ever stand on the steps of a chapel and yell! Quite a while ago, I think it was around October 5,—Robert Hillyer spoke, dis- cussing Amy Lowell. He and manv others tised to dine with her, and talk late while she smoked her cigars. Informals were Halloween. The plays were Granville Barker's "Rococo," Pave US c^2V.^^2V.c^2V,c^3V,c^2V,f^SV,c^2V.c^3V.c^2V,^^2V, LEGEND A'^ l934 "Jephtha's Daughter," "Tickless Time," but I'm afraid I don't remember much about them, because the dance afterward provided much entertainment, and I talked with a most unusual man. Today Stephen Benet was here, lookmg quite unlike a poet, but holding us all completely as he read from John Brown's Body. Since then there has been a New Haven weekend, and evenings at the goode olde Copley. 'Nuff about that. December Once a month is about the only time I can write in my book. It's dawned on me that I haven't said anything about the place I'm living in, and it's an absolute innovation at college—the French House. There are eight of us: a Canadian, a Russian, three Southerners, and three Easterners. We have the best fun, for we have "soirees" at which French poetry is read and songs sung. I've never felt such a complete feeling of warmth toward people as during some of those evenings from seven to seven thirt)^. Fall Formals were the 5th, and Lucy Tompkins enacted the leading part in the "Swan" by Molnar. It was a beautiful production. And now we are getting ready for vacation. One does like college, but oh, vacations! January and February The Depression set in after Januar)' 7, and except for seeing "As You Like It" very well presented by Shakespeare, and going in to the French Church, and dates at the Copley and Mayfair, we've done nothing in this house but write final papers on Peregrine Pickle and Gil Bias, studying for Psych, and sympathizing with G. who is composing seven poems for versification Mid-Years. There hasn't been an)' snow here, consequently little skiing, no skating, and at Dartmouth they imported snow in order to have a Carnival. Not onlj' a personal depression, but the Depression itself is getting hold of the nation. C. G. called a mass meeting Jan. 21 "to consider national and local relief." We're to put nickels in milk bottles when we go out on dates, to "do our bit." March 12 oh. Spring, tra, la! Informals tonight. Pat Parfitt coached "Brother in Arms," and Bernice Bernstein was a finished product as usual. Anne Lord, Molly Ames, and Marie Kass were fine. Katherine Cornell drove out in a handsome purple Packard with a handsome chauffeur to see the Browning Letters. H. Gunner talked to her, wanted a story for News, and told her what a great woman she was. The rest of us who couldn't see her, looked at the chauffeur for want of La Cornell herself. March 3-5 the Model League of Nations was at Brown. M. and G. went down as unspeaking delegates, or whatever they're called! Judging from reports lots besides business of international consequence was accomplished! March 31 We are growing up. Vil Juniors have been announced for next year (our own class), and Rose Is Junior Vice-President of C. G., Jackie, C. A. Vice-President, and Bobby Smith, Vice-President of A. A. There was a picture in the paper today of the dark-eyed diplomat who comes next year from the University of Turin to teach Art. Vacation!

And the next day it snowed! G. and I went to Mr. Gamahel Bradford's funeral. It was so simple and lovely and painless. I want my funeral like that. College right now is heavenly. 'Warm weather has made the daffodils bloom back of Homestead. The evenings are lengthening, and it's so impossible to study after dinner. In fact last night G. and M. and I didn't. B. and W. and D. came out and we drove off somewhere to see the sun set from a pretty hill. Tennis classes every afternoon, open houses at the Societies, "New Moon" playing In Boston, spring fever and sentimental ditties are rampant. Some trouble in concen- trating. G. found a poem by Lizette Woodsworth Reese on "April Weather," the last stanza of which is; "And Grief goes out and Joy comes in. And Care is but a feather And every lad his love can win, For here is April weather." May 2 May Day. Of course the morning was perfect with a deep blue sky. I think May is Wellesley's month. The hoop rolling was hilarious as usual, and our formation of '32's numerals on Tower Court hill was very ingenious. We made a mortar board first, which nobody recognized, and then a bridal bouquet which wasn't much more evident. In the evening we had step singing, and '3 3 came down the hill with their huge banner flying. It made us feel pretty low seeing them mount the Senior steps, because it means thy'll be leaving soon. That's one of the most stunning effects, the tramping, swaying line of girls, five across, all marching with their heads high. The song is — 3" grand "Forward march, oh, Wellesley '3 —it's something to live up to. This time next year we'll be doing the same thing, and moving up into Senior steps! How can it be? Sometiines it almost seems as though the changes which come about here are too swift. One no sooner makes friends, than they leave the Junior steps and sit on the Senior ones. Tonight the Seniors marched off in the distance, the singing growing fainter and fainter. May 19-20 Float Night was last night. It was perfection with the moon as high and round as I've ever seen it. In fact it was so big that I almost didn't see the Peter Pan floats. But the combination of Peter and Wendy and the pirates with the Lost Boys, and Mendelssohn's, Tschaikowsky's and Wagner's music was so appropriate for the Spring evening that nobody could find anything but praise for the whole effect. Ate lots of popcorn, walked about, drank lemonade, admired the moon, and danced at Tower. All taken by and large, college and life are quite wonderful! Today was Tree Day—the Development of Light, with Ravel's "Dream of a Naughty Boy" played. The costumes, dancing girls with hair streaming over their shoulders made me think of an English folk dance festival. May 23 I don't know what else to say. Our Jackie Peck died. And so for her it must be "Tomorrow to fresh woods, and pastures new." The first half of our college life is finished. We leave tomorrow. G. and I have packed our books and pillows and curtains. There are summer plans, and next year plans, but we'll never be Sophomores again.

Such fun— as we all gradually assembled—it's always exciting to find when the Chicago train is due, and when the Texan one will arrive, and to know that in a couple of hours we see everyone that we haven't seen since last June. We're all on the same hall. Nothing quite so nice as to know one's best friends are scattered up and down within calling distance. My room looks out over the green and at the tower. October 17 This month has been full and rather inore exciting than other Octobers I have known. We've taken a great many walks down Dover Road, over the golf course, by the aqueduct which is like England with the winding river reflecting the brilliant colors. We've worked hard and relaxed harder. We've had the election campaign—Roosevelt! We all fight on the corridor because some of us are for Roosevelt and some for Hoover. Society initiations were tonight. The class officers were elected around the 13 th, with Jean Farleigh the president. Are we really we? Choosing our Junior officers! In between this and Koussevitsky's leading the Boston Symphony out here (they played those lovely nocturns of Debussy, Ntiages and Fetes) we went to Billings and heard T. S. Eliot read about "brass shoes" or was it brass shoes? G. and I walked home discussing him, but could reach no satis- factory conclusion as to his poetry. November 7 Tonight was the great political rally. M., N., C, and I all went as underpaid school teachers. I never saw such an assembly of people! Signs of every form and description paraded up and down the aisles of Alumnae—"Clean Hoover with Roose- velt," "We want beer"—or, on the opposite side "Gin is Sin"—a banner carried on an adorable gay ninety figure. One really gets a new slant on everyone at a time like this. Each is so enthusiastic about what she is campaigning for, even if it's a "campaign for Champagne." The Wellesley Brass Band played stirring tunes, and after marching across the stage, we sat down to listen to speeches. November 11 After our happy evening at the rally, everyone was shocked and terribly saddened to hear of Elsa Buerk's death today. She was an exceptionally fine and eager person, and I'll always remember with the greatest pleasure our long talks together in Eliot Freshman year as we washed stockings arovmd midnight. Today there was a memorial chapel. Novemiber 28 There's been the Army game, with dinner afterwards at Hartwell Farms, and the Copley. There've been quizzes and hectic Comp papers, and there've been walks, and talks until 2:00 a.m. Today Clayton Hamilton talked on that magnificent play, "Cyrano." Talked? It was the most enthusiastic praise that could ever be granted anything. Mr. Hamilton declared that he had been waiting around all the centuries before he was born, so that he could be born exactly at the right time in the Nineteenth Century to see "Cyrano." December 5 The "Cherry Orchard" with Critch as Chairman of Production was one of the very best plays which Barn has ever put on. Men in the cast from Harvard, lovely costumes.

I always think of Eva Le Gallienne's words, "Surely Tchekov understood people—just ordinary people. . . . He saw with his infinite tenderness and compassion that man is neither good nor bad, happy nor miserable, strong nor weak, but all these things at once, inextricably woven into the fabric of the whole—the magical, joyous, heart-breaking ." fabric of life . . 193 3! Another vacation over. Only one more Christmas. This one was quite perfect, and it's—shall we say—un petit peu difficile to get back to Bible and stuff like that. Tonight, January 19th, we had rather a unique experience. The Casadesus Society of Ancient Instruments played—instruments of the Eighteenth Centurj'. The names of the instruments were so pretty, the viole d'amour particularly—and M. Henri Casadesus played a "Divertissement pour viole d'amour" on it. Four of the five artists are members of the Casadesus family. At the last, one of the players showed and played the violin of Madame Adelaide, daughter of Louis XV. That almost took my breath away. To see the personal property of the daughter of a king handled in a familiar waj' is out of the ordinary. January 23 The Honorable Victoria Sackville..'West and her husband, Harold Nicolson, sat in the Great Hall after her lecture on the writing of novels, and she told us of Knole, with its ten acres of roof, the fifty-two rooms, and seven courtyards, and the ruined tower where she lives. I could barely take my eyes off her. She represents so much, and the delightful part of it is that she looks as though she did, dressed in a coppery velvet with a long string of amber, and that glorious English skin. We engaged Mr. Nicolson in a long conversation about Persian Gardens. He was born in Persia, I believe. He's a diplomat, and looks like one. They lent a decided glamour and charm to college which didn't disappear for quite a while. February 10 I have heard Paderewski—not only have I heard and seen him, but I have heard him interpret the "Moonlight Sonata." Never have I been so moved. The entire evening was like a beautiful dream. We clapped and clapped, trying to put all our emotion and longing into that inadequate sound. February 27 Everybody's up at dawn this morning to go into Boston to catch the snow train. Oh, what a time! A whole day of snow and motintains tip in Plymouth with the smell of skii wax in our noses, steaming coffee served in the food house, the trucks rumbling along, transporting us up into the hills—oh, it was perfect. March 4-30 Bank holiday—may sound like it's one but it's not. It started in Michigan and has spread all over the country. Everybody' here rushes to the Telegraph office to get money. It's rather odd to be so devoid of funds. We all stay in college from one week-end to the next, and fall back on our own resources for entertainment. Spring Informals. Our Class Play—Maeterlinck's "Interior"—won the prize. March 23 Today was a big day. Our own class took over the reins of government! There was a small blizzard, and the announcement had to be made in Green, but it was every bit as thrilling. Rose, C.G. Billie, C.A., Ellie Wilcox, Chief Justice, Peter Johnson, Pane 123 LEGENDA^ i954 ^^2v.^^2v,^^2>oc^2V3c^2v.f^2v.c^2v.f^2\.f^2x.c^2\. Barn., Anna Hale—Business Manager of Barn, and all the Vil Juniors were announced. Afterwards we came home and talked it over with our Senior friends. They're feeling somewhat limp, as though they had suddenly been put on the shelf. April The month of daffodils and Prom! April 16th we spent Easter Sunday in town. Went to Emmanuel Church, at which most of Wellesley was present. Dinner in Pinkney Club up on the hill, which everyone, who has been at college, knows at some time in her career. The weather was so spring-like, with a sudden little shower in the early afternoon, and then the sun very bright. Step singing has begun again. The evenings are beautiful now. It's impossible to study after supper. The long, pale twilights with the Tower so clear against a rose sky are too perfect to leave. R. often drives out on the spur of the moment, and we watch the sunset from some hill, or else go over to McManus' for ice cream. April 28 Prom. I think without doubt the most wonderfvd one that ever took place. From the moment when the little Sophomore maid came up to announce R., through the dinner when I sat straight as a ramrod for fear of crvishing my new dress and gardenias, till the grand march—every instant was thrilling. It was so warm that we could walk over in thin wraps—and the inoon was shining! Somehow we all managed to get to 8:40's, but what a relief when they were over. Off on a picnic to Hingham, and supper later at the Crane & Kettle, with the dance at College later. So warm that we could sit on Alumnae terrace. Quite a perfect sight, for the stars were out. I've always liked the trees that you can see against the sky from Alum. May 1 We'll be the next ones to roll hoops. Wellesley looked as Mayish as possible this ." mornmg. "The grass is growing greener every day. . . This morning when I woke up there was still a faint mist such as one sees early on summer mornings. It was so quiet that I almost forgot that I was in a place as alive as college, for the only sound I could hear from "my casement window" was the birds. All below me seemed to be emerging from sleep. May 20 Float Night was a splendid sight—Joan of Arc in all her phases. Everything went well until Joan's "Renunciation of her Lover" was lost far out on the lake some- where, and they were forced to send the last one on—Joan's Burning. Immediately afterwards the "Renunciation of her Lover" was captured from the winds, and, of course, had to be shown, for it was such a beautiful float. Dancing followed in Tower. R. and I sat without and gazed upon the moon over the lake. What a place is this m Spr-i-n-g! Tree Day this afternoon many said was the most beautiful in years. The Pandora Myth seemed admirably suited to an outdoor performance—and, too, nothing could have been lovelier than the sun on Bea Moore's hair. The whole spectacle of Tree Day impressed me as a tremendous piece of work which has required hundreds of work- ers. Heaven knows Elodie worked hard managing it. I'll never forget her worry about costumes. She had to stitch some of them herself, and then a Drama paper at midnight. Of such things college is made.

The weather is unbelievably hot, and at night as we sit up writing final papers, milhons of small bugs crawl over the lights and plaster the ceilings. As I sit working there's a storm gathering. Against the gray and white sky the Tower stands out—like black onyx. Work on June Play "The Importance of Being Earnest." Peter Johnson's first production in Barn, with Pat Parfitt taking the part of Earnest. Parents of Senior friends arriving, suppers at the Wayside Inn, the college lovelier than ever with the roses in bloom and trees thick in foliage, people dismantling their rooms, last glimpses of friends, sudden pangs at the thoiight of next year's finality . . . we're so excited, so depressed, so hilarious, we shed tears and laugh suddenly. . . . Junior year is over. September 24, 193 3 Already those dread "Last times" that Seniors are always wailing about are upon us. For the last time we went to the vaudeville last night. And for the first time heard, or rather shouted. You've taken 1934, that embryonic mass, And changed it by a miracle into a Senior Class! There are other changes, among them a Grey Book test for the whole college quite an affront to ovir seniority, is it not? But a good idea, none the less. I sup- pose nothing of the whole year will seem at once so glorious and so incredible as our being part of the academic procession yesterday morning. The caps still look a bit unused to our heads, but time will cure that, no doubt, and by June we shall wear them at as discreet an angle as even those matchless seniors of three years ago. October 30 Today we have with us two charming and gifted guests, both alumnae—Bernice Kenyon, who read from her newest poems yesterday in Billings, and Ruth Nichols, the aviatrix, who spoke this morning in one of the Astronomy classes. In times like these it is a comforting thing to know that Wellesley girls not so much older than we are have won honor and happiness in work that means a great deal to them. I had almost begun to think that the best one could hope for was a place behind the counter at Woolworth's! Every odd moment for the last three days I have found myself harking back to the really inspired innovation of an undergraduate play at Informals. Betty Smith's Office seemed to me to show quite remarkable depth of thought and skill of dramatic technique; I think whoever is responsible for the contest ought to be congratulated. After my pathetic attempts this summer I have a faint idea of the dramatist's difficulties; and surely the chance to have an experimental play produced by Barn is coming to that brave soul who can achieve one. November 12 I am so mad that I ought not to write until I've cooled off a little, I guess. But at any rate let me call forth my most fiery invective on the American press, which is a comparatively safe object. All this, of course, refers to the Peace Parade yesterday and the ridiculous misinterpretations of it in the papers today. I never witnessed any- thing more orderly, more dignified, nor more sincere than the behavior of the paraders. It is good to know that our college pacifists did not hesitate to risk severe criticism Page 126 c^sv,c^2v.c"S>oc^3v.c^2v,c^2v,f^sv.c-sv.c^sv.c^sv3 LEGENDA ^ 1934 in an .ittempt to make Armistice da)' in the town of Welleslej' a true celebration of peace. It is good, too, to know that the administration was behind them, with friendly understanding of their motives, and wise admonitions to be courteous and orderly. Well, that's off my chest; and I suppose it really doesn't matter very much. But when I knew how anxiously and earnestly the peace leaders had considered the move, it made me boil to hear such unperceptive criticism thrown at them. Now to a calmer subject—the other day, after all the years I've been here, I actually went over to the library to see the Browning letters. Miss Weed showed them to me, telling their history and lots of interesting little things about them. But it was not until I came home and read Sonnets from the Portuguese that the full excitement of their being right here among us came over me. When I got to XXVIII, I all but died of the thrill, for this is what it says: "My letters! all dead paper, mute and white! And yet they seem alive and quivering Against my tremulous hands which loose the string " And let them drop down on my knee tonight and so on, recounting phrases that are still alive and quivering on their dead paper, not a stone's throw from the room where we poor, hopelessly unimaginative chits gather three times a week to study nineteenth century poetry. November 27 Erwin Schell talked this afternoon on "How to Get a Job," and I guess I must have been in a poor mood, for I came home in the deepest melancholy. People talk about the difficulties of making adjustments to college life, but to my way of thinking they are ease itself compared with the adjustments of graduating. It is so perfectly blissful to be here with people who are alive and congenial, to be working my head off at the things I love to work at, to be—Well, it could go on forever, and in down- right honesty, I'd probably hate being a college girl all my da^'s. But at the same time, the villain in my life's drama right now is an ogre of terrifying vagueness whose name is "Next Year." December 10 Today Reinhold Niebuhr preached in chapel; and if I ever again hear such a sermon I shall be an uncommonly lucky person. As it was, he not only spoke with great intelligence and frankness, but his theme fell right into the distressing gap in the theme for my 3 04 novel. I came home and put it all down before I could forget it; and now at last I begin to see light on the thing. My stars seem to be fortuitous these days! January 26 What a night! It is still to be decided whether good Saint Frances Knapp or King Henry Jencks VIII or cigarette-puffing Calypso Roberts was the high spot of the evening. I am really sick from laughing. But even more than the fun, I have an idea that the sense of Wellesley's unity will stand out when I remember this Tradition Night in years to come. Alumnae Hall bulging with girls all singing and laughing, all bound together by that strange, indefinable sense of belonging together was some- thing in itself; but when Judge Soffel twisted us so delicately around her finger, when she so consummately drew us from shrieks to the silent recognition of what Wellesley has always stood for and must continue to stand for—then the evening was Paiie 127 — LEGENDA^ l934 c^S\.c^SV3C^3l.c^l.c^2V.c^2\.c^2V.c^2\..-^3\.c"=^o quite perfect. She said what I have been thinking in my vague, uncertain way for many months. And she predicted that sense of Wellesley's tempering effect on us all by pointing out our obligation to weld what we have learned here into a world beyond campus and classes— a world very sadly in need of courage and idealism and intelligence. I said to myself when she had finished, and I know every other girl in the room said it too, "Well, she is the embodiment of Wellesley's ideal. If our generation can turn out one or two who can match her, we shall have reason to be proud!" February 17 They say that the college's fleet of trucks won an award for safety some time ago. Funny thing, isn't it, that we almost never stop to realize what a community we live in. And certainly if you had asked me to guess what new honor had been bestowed on the alma mater, that's the vei'y last thing that I should ever have guessed. Well, one walks through life more or less blind to the obvious things around one. It seems to be the signal human failing! March 12 Prom is over—our last prom. And it was the nicest of all, as it should have been. L. and P. and E. and I went, with our respective escorts. Coming in from the perilous ice and that bitter wind to the flowering garden of the dance floor was one of the loveliest experiences I've ever had. And the dresses and the faces looked like spring, too. Ah, well, it cannot be put into words, so why try? Senior Prom is Senior Prom; and that's all there is to it. Legenda is going to print in a day or two; so the rest of 1934's Journal must be imagined. These last months are like no others. We are sad and happy, worried and excited, crazy and dead serious all in a breath. All the best things seem to pile up right at the end to make our coming departure from the halls of learning even more poignant. I was looking back over my freshman jottings today, and it seems to me that I've come a long way toward maturity. Indeed, these last few days I have been living much in the past, m memories of first meetings, first thrills, first disappointments—and that, they do say, is a sign of middle age. That it should be upon me so soon! I scarcely know how to close, for there are so many things that have made college what it has been—things that I couldn't express even if I tried. Perhaps one ma)' just '34 tilt back one's head and laugh, "Hail, Class of —the best is yet to come!" Vase 128 c^SV.c^\.c^3V3C^2V3^^eV3.r^3l,c^V.c^SV,c^2V3^^3V.

College Government feels that the new freedom of recent college years challenges each student to show herself worthy of the confidence thus placed in her, furthermore it is felt that by attempting to live up to the high standards of citizenship which is the basis of Wellesley's commvmity life, we are but filling the requirements and the demands of citizenship in any community. The value of such a community rests upon the interest and the cooperation of each individual. Consequently College Government, as representative of the entire student body, has encouraged criticism, advice and a free expression of opinion regardmg means of bettering all phases of college life. In view of the many changes in legislation, so recently effected, the senate voted in March, 193 3, that an examination, based on the regulations in the Grey Book, be given to all Sophomores, Juniors and Seniors at the beginning of the college year in September, 1933. Such an examination was given and proved to be a success, for it forced attention upon the new rules, seemed to lessen the number of mistakes which customarily result from ignorance, or misunderstanding of the regulations and called to the minds of all, in positive or negative form, some realization of the necessity for government and the demands which accompany it. Thus it is that the present administration of College Government feels that its year will not have been in vain if it has in any way succeeded in bringing to a few students a broader conception of citizenship and the eternal challenge which it holds.

We determine to have a part in making this life possible for all people. In this task we seek to understand the ideals of Jesus and to follow them." These words are the guide of the Christian Association, and this year every task undertaken has been an effort to live up to the purpose in the best way possible. The work began with Freshman Week when "Ask-Me's" met trains, welcomed newcomers and assisted at the Get-Acquainted Tea. C. A., as the organization is com- monly called, edited "Freshman Bibles" to be of further help to the new students, and then in cooperation with College Government, welcomed the Freshmen to a Campus Sup- per and later took them to the traditional College Vaudeville. C. A. reinstated the "Big Sister" custom this year, to the apparent satisfaction of everyone. It continued the plan of having a Sophomore Council to keep the Freshman in touch with C. A. until their own house representatives were elected. In helping to make a full and creative life possible for all people the Social Service Committee has been most active. It has placed A^olunteers in many different hospitals and agencies in Boston, and it has enlarged its work with the Wellesley Hills Convales- cent Home so that it is no longer simply a Freshman project, but one with which upper classmen may be connected. Another committee has done similar helpful work In our own community. The Student Industrial Group has continued its contact with a group from Framingham., and has further widened its field bv attending Industrial meetings In Boston to study the N.R.A. In an attempt to become more familiar with national and international problems members of the Christian Association have attended several conferences throughout the year. A Model World Student Christian Federation was held for the first time at Wesleyan. Another conference was held at Babson Park, and the annual Silver Bay delegation, at the end of the college year, will leave for Silver Bay to discuss problems vitally affecting present day living. The World Fellowship Committee has furthered this relation with the people about us by making contact with all foreign students at Wellesley, bv helping to edit a magazine under the International Student Service, and by keeping in touch with the World Student Christian Federation. Lastly, but of the utmost Importance, comes the Christian Association's contact with religion on Campus. It arranges Vesper Services; it supports a Religious Forum; it sponsors group discussions on present day problems; It presents a nativity play. Thus Christian Association offers many opportunities to participate in various phases of student work. It aims to bring to the students a more thoughtful and deeper appreciation of life as it is today—dangerous, interesting, and challenging.

But hockey practices and "catch 2-3 's" on the lake, capped by a Freshman victory in an inter-class "Standing-up Canoe Race" in the Swimming Meet were all we needed to cheer us up. By Fall Field Day, our pep, though netting us only fourth place in the inter-class competition, had given us a place in the sun through the efforts of Cowenhoven, Carter, B. Smith (ex '34), Kasper, and Macintosh who won coveted varsity positions in hockey, basketball, and volleyball. The tug of war in the Snow Carnival our Freshman year, gave us a chance with the help of our big sisters to pull snippy Sophomores and exalted Seniors into the slushy pool of ice water at the bottom of Tower Court Hill. Another victory over the Sophomores in the winter gym meet, and Ellie Ode and later Marie Kass as Secretary of A. A. and Boots Wiggins as Custodian inflated our ego immensely. But spring teams showed the savage depletions of our own particular brand of "pro" regulations—only seven were eligible for the lacrosse team. However, we managed to climb to third place in Field Day (a creditable achievement for us in the light of subsequent history) , and saw Beth Aery make varsity in archery. A fourth in Float Night failed to quench our excitement at the thrill of forming the "W" and the splendor of the "Idylls of the King" floats. Besides we had an act of our own in the christening of our shell, "Timoga," and didn't Kass row proudly by in the varsity? In the fall of our Sophomore year, our second crew distinguished itself by beginning its bumping career, but Catherine Hathaway redeemed us by winning the singles of the fall tennis tournament. That winter showed Boots Wiggins as a skating star, and Jean Farleigh, Jeanne Spencer, Olga Frankel, and Charlotte Rice as charming dancers in the Dance Drama based on Matthew Arnold's "Stanzas from the Grande Chart- reuse." An icy wind churning the lake, blowing crews and "Peter Pan" floats out of position and even unceremoniously dumping one "Never Never Land" into the frigid water, was made even sadder to us when our second crew again disastrously departed from the straight and narrow course, and the dark horse Freshmen spurted past our much heralded first crew to win the race and Float Night. At rain-drenched Spring Field Day, Charlotte Rice in archery brought to '34 its first individual cup. Junior year marked the birth of the new Riding Club with its supper rides and dare devil stunts, an organization which is already such a lusty Page no c^sv>c^av.c^3v,c^v,c^v,f^2^oc-^'2\.c^2\3c^sv3f^3\. LEG END A"'' 1934 infant. Fall Field Day made the front page of the newspapers with the winning touchdown of Captain Mapes in the Army-Harvard football game (Major officers vs. A. A. for the benefit of those unfortunates who missed the thrilling score after a fifty yard run and three bounces, which so grieved Captain Best that she had to be carried out on a stretcher.) Virginia Stevenson won the individual volley ball cup, and Miss Hatha- way-Wills again added glory by her victory in tennis doubles with Esther Edwards. With winter came the swimming pool carnival—and dimes for dances, vaudeville, faculty baby pictures, fortunes, and food set us over $500 nearer our goal. Mary Wigman and her group dancers, Dance Drama in its version of Meredith's "Shaving of Shagpat," both for the benefit of the swimming pool, and a contribution from the profits of Float Night added another $500, bringing the fund to practically the half way mark. We'll have that pool yet! The winter Gym Meet put "W's" on the proud chests of Bowlby and Ludlum. Dorcas Jencks did a grand job of managing the Individual Sports Day, at which we entertained Radcliffe, Simmons, and Boston University. At Spring Field Da}', Clement, Rice, Donaldson, Grant, Wig- gins, and Childs joined the "W" wearers, and Billy Bowlby became the first '34 owner of that highest award, the blazer. But Float Night! A calm lake, "Joan of Arc" floats, and "W's" to Foster, Goerner, Kass, Jencks, and Smith, was all crowned by our very first victory on land or sea. "O frabjous day! Callooh! Callay! (We) chortled in (our) joy." Gray hairs and aging limbs to the contrary, as Seniors at Fall Field Day we lost our dignity in a human croquet game and won many new names on our "W" and varsity roll of honor. Since that day, too, Polly Starks, Boots Wiggins, and Ruth Stevenson may be seen in blazers. A smashing victory in the ice carnival, due largely to Boots and Anne Grant, showed the youngsters that, though we may have come in second in fall crew and fourth in Field Day, we still constitute a threat. The abolition, this year, of training and of a good many awards smacks of revolutionary ardor. Like Fiitler, may we continue to sweep aside all obstacles, including the general, and place our purple banner supreme over fields of victory!

Fitting music, some perhaps from the opera, "Hansel und Gretel," will be played for each float, with improvements promised in the amplification. Although utterly different from the majestic scenes of the life of Jeanne d'Arc, given last year, with their accompaniment of Wagner's music, these bright German pic^ tures should be equally attractive. Float designs will be chosen, as has been the custom for the last two years, by a competition held before the Easter vacation.

Tree Day THIS year Tree Day follows 1933 in the return to the simplicity which charac- terized the pageant before it turned modern a few years ago. The subject is the Young King, a fairy tale by Oscar Wilde. It is the story of a peasant boy who becomes a king. His mother, the royal princess, had run off with her peasant lover; the King had had them both killed, and had left the child to be brought up by the peasants. But as he was dying, he relented, and sent for his rightful heir. The young king is dazzled by the beauty and splendor of the court. He orders a magnificent gold cloth to be woven for his coronation robe, and sends far away for rich gems for his crown. But on the night before his coronation he dreams and sees men toiling and suflfering to weave this very cloth, and to procure these very gems for him. He is so inoved by this vision' that he will not accept his beautiful robe and gems. The courtiers and people do not understand him, and threaten to kill him. The bishop attempts to explain to him that it is inevitable that the poor and the weak must suffer at the hands of the rich and powerful. The king falls on his knees and prays. A light from heaven, exemplified by the Tree Day Mistress, shines down on him, and transforms his peasant garb into beautiful, shining raiment. The people, realizing that their king has been crowned more beautifully than any earthly hand could have done, fall on their knees and worship him.

It proved to be worth our anticipation and more. Things started happening on Friday night with dinners m Tower, Claflin, and Severance. Then came Prom itself! As we entered the ball room of Alumnae we were at once transported to the lands of the Arabian Nights. The reassuring modern touch was given by Bert Lown and his orchestra, to whose music we promenaded and then danced gaily far into the night. The festivities continued on Saturday with various tea dances and Prom Event, "The Critic," performed by the Dartmouth Players, fol- lowed by more dancing. It was a very merry weekend.

Our familiar Alumnae ballroom was truly a lovely sight to behold. Supper at midnight—cabaret fashion—with entertainment and all.

On such occasions the formidable dignity and austerity of professors and instructors is cast to the winds and there lies revealed a wealth of humor and hidden talents. Unfortunatel)', the faculty perform publicly only once in every three years. The great event is Tradition Night. The custom of Tradition Night was begun in 1910 when the first of the faculty plays was presented in College Hall Center. At irregular intervals thereafter members of the faculty changed their personalities and entertained the students. In 1928 the triennial Tradition Nights were inaugurated, and it follows that 19.H and 1934 each witnessed one of these memorable events. On Friday night, January 26, Alumnae Hall was converted into a stampede ground and picnic park combined, for at eight o'clock that evening members of the faculty and administration cast aside their academic gowns and clothed themselves in angel robes and flowing Grecian garments and the gay finery of the sixteenth century. Students fought with one another to see the faculty turned Thespians. By supper time half the house was filled by the waiting audience who brought with them their lunches, which ranged in content from fancy chicken salads and ordinary sand- wiches to ginger ale and hot chocolate. Long before the curtain rose every seat was taken. President Pendleton, resplendent in red and orange velvet and with a crown of gold upon her head, presented the prologue which was written by Miss Tuell. It is impossible to comment here on the merits of all the acting, for that would Involve a detailed account of the excellencies of each role. Several of the characters, however, were portrayed with peculiar distinction. Undoubtedly, the most appealing characters were the two angels, played by Miss Knapp and Mr. Procter. They were pleasantly earthly angels with just enough heavenly patience and sweetness to be v.'-orthy of their crowns of glory. Mr. Haroutunian, as the worldly bishop in the same play, never lost an opportunity to cast malicious glances about the scene. He seemed to get as much, if not more, pleasure from his licentious role than did the audience. Mrs. Nichols' interpretation of lj>higcnia ("Ippy" to you) was most amusing and her feigned weeping very realistic. Mr. Jenks, as Henry VIII, thundered about the stage, gesticulated dramatically and hurled abuses at placid Catbr'nic Parr (Miss Snow) because his breakfast egg was too watery, and because he and his wife could not agree as to whether Alexander's horse was black or white. Miss Bosano was a romantic and passionate Don Jnaii. The anachronisms in production only served to make the five Faculty Plays more entertaining Henry VIII reading the Boston Tnuncripf at his breakfast table; the southern accents of Iphigenia and Clyft'.emnes/ra; the cocktail glasses in which Calypso served "double Circes" to Ulysses; the beards worn by Dean Lindsay and Dean Wilson; Miss Robert's strange, straw-like hair which she tore from her head dramatically, but with remarkable ease. The class of 1934 is one of those more fortunate classes which have had the privilege of seeing two Tradition Nights. A long time ago, when we were freshmen, we sat in the back rows of Alumnae Hall—because we were not smart enough to get there early—and saw the faculty present The Rose and the King. We looked admir- ingly at the dignitaries of the senior class who impersonated various members of the faculty and administration and sat in the "royal" boxes. At the time it seemed that only in the indefinite future would members of our own class be temporary deans and presidents and heads of departments. Yet now the momentary term of ofHce is long since over and the seventh Tradition Night has passed into the files of history.

It is only a couple of weeks away. Of course, that involves a lot of new clothes, and I just bought that new suit at Fredleys last week. But it was certainly a good investment. The girls all love it, with its cute beige jacket and red lapels. I read in Vogue this morning that dark skirts with light jackets were to be all the rage so I'm right in line. I only wish this horrible winter weather would clear up so I could impress Peter with it. But there is an idea. We are planning to make a weekend out of Prom—the North Shore, etc., on Sunday, and my suit is just the thing for the drive. Mmm— it sounds like fun. But there is still the problem of the evening dress. Kate got her Prom dress at Fredleys last year and if I can get one as knock-down-and-carry-em-out as she did, life will be all moonlight and roses. After all she announced her engagement right after Prom so there must be some- thing to these Fredleys dresses. I don't want to be an old maid all of my life just because I didn't go the right place for my clothes. So—to Fredleys for a dress that is Unusual. And now for a tactful letter to Dad so that he will foot the bill — it won't be large. FREDLEYS West Street, Boston Central Street, Wellesley (^ m SUNDAY, MAY 13 Ray! I passed that golf ordeal with Peter today with flying colors, and that's saying something, for my golf game is enough to turn any man in the other direction fast. But that good-looking two-piece green sport silk that I bought at Conrad's saved the day for me. I looked so simply ravish- ing in it that Peter forgot all about golf by the third hole and concentrated on me —which is as it should be; but the outfit deserves all the credit. Those bubble but- tons on the front are so cute, and the string hat that I can pull on in a million different ways just intrigued the boy. What is more, it is such a cool and comfortable dress that I could drink tea after the ninth hole look- ing fresh as a daisy. It certainly was a bargain at $19.75. I am going into Con- rad's again soon and look over the rest of their things. It is the sort of place where they outfit you from top to toe—hats, bags and everything, at prices we can afford to pay.

I am actually going to West Point—brass buttons, parades and all. Of course it is only a blind date, but I have fixed it so that I will have more than a look-in. I have all the clothes that any promtrotter could want. I'll admit things looked pretty black for a while because I couldn't get into town, but I followed Mary's sugges- tion to go to Slattery's and I found every- thing there that I could possibly need. I got a stunning suit, three-piece with a checked coat and a plain color suit under it; a darling Breton Sailor; and a simply knockout purse. They ought to captivate even a hard-hearted cadet from the first. And I am going to follow through with a white evening dress with turquoise acces- sories, and a gay print silk for Sunday. It's going to be a grand weekend. If It isn't, no one can say that I didn't go with all my war paint on, what with all these good- looking clothes. Tough luck, Mr. X, but I fear me you are doomed!
