     Phi Lambda Athletic Assoc.; Home Economics Club; Argonian Literary Society; Valdosta Club; Pine Cone Staff, '28-'29.

Catherine Lee
A.B., Education
Dawson, Georgia

     Y.W.C.A.; Argonian Literary Society; Phi Kappa Athletic Assoc.; Valdosta Club, '25-'26; Treasurer Argonian Literary Society, '27-'28.
     Although Catherine is not one of the most conspicious characters on the campus, she is one of the most likeable.  She has not spent much of her time in many activities, for numerous hours of her time are spent in pursuit of the mysteries of Physics, Chemistry, and Biology.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Mary Louise Maxwell
A.B., Education
Calvary, Georgia

     Phi Kappa Athletic Assoc.; Argonian Literary Society; Student Recorder of Points, '27-'28; Sock and Buskin Club; Field Day Honors.
     In the years to come, Max will be remembered as the girl who won almost all the individual points on Field Day.  It is predicted that the students will grieve her absence as an athletic star, and as the attraction that brought a certain blue roadster on campus.

 

pg. 38

Rose Morrison
A.B., Education
Waycross, Georgia

     Entered '28; Phi Kappa Athletic Assoc.; Sock and Buskin Club; Argonian Literary Society; Chairman Program Committee Sock and Buskin Club, '28-'29.
     Versatility is the keynote of Rose's character.  She makes the ideal hero for the Dramatic Club plays; she is equally effective as basket-ball player, as a globe trotter and as a linguist.  Rose has not been at G.S.W.C. long, but she has quickly made her place in campus life.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Lois Mullins
A.B., Liberal Arts
Baconton, Georgia

     Entered '28; Y.W.C.A.; Sororian Literary Society; Sock and Buskin Club; Phi Kappa Athletic Assoc.
    Though Lois has been at G.S.W.C. only a short time, every one has been quick to recognize her abilities.  Probably Lois' greatest interest lies in dramatic endeavors, as evidenced by the active part she has taken in the Sock and Buskin Club.

 

pg. 39

Lucile Nix
A.B., Liberal Arts
Jesup, Georgia

     Y.W.C.A.; Argonian Literary Society; Phi Kappa Athletic Assoc.; Philharmonic Club, '25-'26; Fine Arts Club; Sock and Buskin Club; Inter-Society Debate, '26; Y.W.C.A. Cabinet, '25-'26; Pine Branch Staff, '26-'27; Secretary Phi Kappa Athletic Assoc., '26-'27; Pine Cone Staff, '28-'29.
     If there is any question up for debate, Lucile will be sure to sponsor one side or the other.   She has shown her ability in this as an Inter-Society Debater.  Lucile has also been an active member in a great many of the campus clubs.  Though she sometimes sighs for "the University," Lucile has been a loyal G.S.W.C. girl.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Ila Spooner
A.B., Liberal Arts

     As a pursuer of the elusive ad, Ila shows her ability.  She, too, has spent part of this year in expounding the benefits derived from putting a large ad in the Annual.  She ought to make a good spokesman for some worthy cause, for she can furnish very good arguments for the interests she favors.

 

pg. 40

A.B., Education
Dixie, Georgia

     Sororian Literary Society; Phi Lambda Athletic Assoc.; Chairman Program Committee Home Economics Club, '25-'26; Valdosta Club; Home Economics Club; Pres. Home Economics Club, '27-'28.
     Because of her active interest in home economics, Mary has been Chairman of the State Home Economics Clubs this year.  After completing her courses here, Mary probably will be going over the state organizing clubs in the various schools, or be the Home Economics teacher in one of them.

     Entered '26; Glee Club; Phi Kappa Athletic Assoc.; Argonian Literary Society; Valdosta Club; Chairman Program Committee Argonian Literary Society, '27-'28; Pine Branch Staff, '27-'28; Pine Cone Staff, '28-'29.
     One student has been quoted as saying, "Is there anything Bessie can not do?"  It is true that Bessie can dance, sing, play, write stories, and even produce all the literary work in the Annual.  In other words, she can do anything she wishes.
