Fifty-Nine Years Old:
Senior
Ivy Day, one of the oldest tradi
tions of the University ' began in
1893 as Senior Class Day.
The spring festivities were first
called Ivy Day in 1901, when sen
iors marched to the. south side of
the old University Hall and sang
the school song. After the senior
class president turned over the
ivy trowel to the junior class presi
dent, the senior dance was held.
Two years later, 13 Innocents
were tackled, and 16 senior wom
en did a May Pole Dance to make
Ivy Da an even bigger occasion.
In 1905, the Order of the Black
Masque, the local chapter of Mor
tar Board, was founded. The mask
big of outstanding junior women
added more excitement to Ivy
Pay.
Ivy and Daisy chains were add
ed in 1910. Fifty girls carried the
chains around the campus. The
first May Queen was crowned in
1912.
In 1913 a large flag of 1403 stars
was presented to the University
In honor of college men in the
armed services. Ivy from Dough
boys was planted.
When the war was over, the Lord
of the May was presented on Ivy
Day, but this presentation was
soon discontinued.
Ivy' Day in 1938, included Farm
ers' Fair, E-Week, and the grand
openiug of the new Student Union.
Now a May Queen, the Ivy Day
Court, Ivy and Daisy chains, the
Ivy Day Sing, the tackling of new
Innocents and the masking of new
Mortar Boards, and the plaiting
of the traditional ivy are all a part
of Ivy Day.
On Ivy Day afternoon between
five and twenty -five junior women
will be chosen to continue the 51
year old tradition of the Black
JMasque Chapter of Mortar Board.
The women will be chosen tm
the basis of leadership in student
activities, Service and scholarship.
New members must ' have over a
6.1 cumulative average and must
bav given service to the Univer
sity. The nineteen women who served
s Mortar Boards this year are:
