PHOENIX: Fabulous Arabian bird. Emblem of<br />

solar or fire worship. It supposedly<br />

great age,<br />

lives to a<br />

at which time it burns itself to ashes<br />

and after three days comes to life again. Thus, it<br />

is symbolic of immortaHty, rejuvenation, self-<br />

immolation. It appears alone, without mate or<br />

companions. Figuratively, a person of singular<br />

or superlative excellence, a prodigy.


Its advent heralds an auspicious<br />

event; its departure foretells a<br />

calamity. It is symbolic of abundance,<br />

beauty, prosperity and re-birth.

The dedication of a yearbook<br />

^'*^iV%f-l<br />

must reflect the interaction of the entire<br />

community. Such tribute should be to those who have touched<br />

the moments or days of our lives. Thus,<br />

we dedicate<br />

<strong>Phoenix</strong> to each of those who have lessened a<br />

moment of crisis or shared an hour<br />

of happiness. Thank you.<br />

So closely interwoven have been our lives.<br />

Our purposes, and experiences,<br />

That separated, we have a feeling of<br />

incompleteness.<br />

United, such strength of self assertion,<br />

that no ordinary obstacles,<br />

differences, or dangers<br />

ever appear to us insurmountable.<br />

Each year. Social League treats us to a Spring Weekend, which, despite<br />

trials and tribulations, is always a success. Men from miles around flock to<br />

it's beer but<br />

Mount Vernon to revel in wine, women and song (actually<br />

who ever heard of wine, women and beer?). This year's Spring 'Weekend<br />

was brought to you by Cyndi Steele and Katie Kittle along with their<br />

SPRING WEEKEND .<br />

. . <strong>1979</strong><br />

Mount Vernon was treated to an adventure in theatre this<br />

year with the production of Jack Heifner's 'Vanities."<br />

Produced by Marilys Ernst and Cunain Callers, the play<br />

was directed by Andrew Pyne, a graduate student in<br />

theatre at Catholic University. "Vanities" is concerned<br />

with the lives of three somewhat confused, somewhat so<br />

cially non-conscious young women who grew up in the<br />

sixties. The three stages of the play find them first in high<br />

school concerned only with cheerleading, boys and popu<br />

larity; in college, concerned only with sorority, boys and<br />

popularity; and then reunited briefly at a New York<br />

apartment as they are turning thiny, a Httle older, a little<br />

wiser and a little different. "Kathy," played by Mirra Pren<br />

dergast (center cheerleader) ended up searching for<br />

something with some meaning. "Mary," portrayed by<br />

Sarah Smith (cheerleader at right) became a thirty-year<br />

old world traveller and the somewhat bitter and over<br />

sexed owner of a pornographic art gallery. And "<br />

"Joanne,<br />

the girl who never quite grew up but nonetheless married<br />

the boy of her dreams was brought to Ufe by Nancy Rob-<br />

140<br />

bins (cheerleader at left). The three girls are friends<br />

throughout their lives, so much so that they can never<br />

of time. Their de<br />

remember being apart for any length<br />

pendence on each other is touching and somewhat sad as<br />

their last act of sharing is Joanne's husband, Ted.<br />

The tennis team finished the season with a record of 8 wins and four<br />

losses this year which Coach Jan Hollack feels is an impressive<br />

record. On<br />

Saturday, April 28, <strong>1979</strong>, the Women's Capital Collegiate Tennis Tour<br />

nament was held at Mount Vernon. Jean Benoit (no. 1), Brooke<br />

Rosenblatt (no. 2) and Margaret McBee (no. 3) represented Mount 'Ver<br />

non in the singles matches. For the doubles matches, Tina Teipel and<br />

Martha Broeker as the No. 1 team and Susie Rammel and Lauren Venuto<br />

as the No. 2 team represented the College. In an exciting match, Tina and<br />

Martha beat the St. Mary's team to win the tournament title in the dou<br />

bles consolation period. Coach Hollack is quite proud of her team's per<br />

formance this year and is looking forward to another great season.<br />
