Dean Ferguson Arranging
For Golden Bowl Dinner
tiif, megaphone
Mrs. Score Named
Guest Of Honor
One of the most treasure] tra-
ditions of Southwestern University
is that of the Dinner of the Golden
Bowl which was instituted in 1928
by the late Miss Laura Kuykendall.
The Friendship Dinner of Oxford
suggested the idea to her, and her
desire to foster the feeling of
friendship and loyalty in the hearts
of all the women of the “South-
western Family” resulted in the
“Rainbow Dinner." Mrs. Margaret
Mood McKennon wrote the ritual
for the first service, using as her
theme the legend of the pot of gold
at the end of the rainbow. Each
color of the rainbow symbolizes an
attribute which friendship gives, i
and the brass service, the pot of
gold at the end of the rainbow, or
ideals enriched by friendship.
A few years later, Miss Kuyken-
dall changed the name of the Rain-
bow Dinner to that of the Golden
Bowl, and Mrs. Herbert Minga
(nee Miss Annie Edward Ramis t
wrote the ritual that is used at !

love and loyalty to their Alma Ma-
ter. In 1940, Mrs. Ruth Ferguson,
Dean of Women, wishing to in-
clude all the girls of the Senior
Class in the service of the Golden
Bowl, wrote n Prologue to the rit-
ual. In it. as the rose tinted clouds
enhance the beauty of the rainbow,
heralds, dressed in white, rose, and
blue, respectively, are emblematic
of the purity, ardor, and loyalty of
true friendship.
In October of each year at this
traditional dinner, Southwestern
University honors the women of
the faculty, the girls of Laura
Kuykendall Hall, the mothers of
the senior girls, the ex-student

Jack Wilson turned from study-
ing history at Washington State
College to making it. After five
semesters as a history major, Wil-
son joined the army air force and
is credited with being the first
American pilot to down a Gerraon
plane in Africa. After his victory
Wilson had to make a crash land-
ing behind the British lines, but
was uninjured.
On this page are reproduced sev-
eral pictures of the Southwestern
University Band while it was un-
der the direction of Tom Johnson,
who is pictured below. During his
seven years of directing at South-
western, Johnson built a fine or-
ganninzation out of nothing. His
Pigskin Revue came to be known
all over Texas as the best possible
entertainment from college artists.
He trained musicians which have
gone out to all parts of the state
and are successful in directing
also. He has now become a part
of the United States Army and is
continuing his musical career as
an army director.

The Moron,
types,
He siestas through
mills of night.
But the majority of Morons are a
great deal of fun,
Fun isn’t everything—it shows the
essence of dumb.
S. TVs had cases of the mentally dis-
ranged,
They’ve had ’em years and years
—this isn’t strange.
The jierson who studies day and
night,
Has concepts of the future and un-
derstands natural life.
the Moron is different, which
you've got. to admit,
He can be happy, contented, gay,
and just sit.
These are the follows that live in
