Miss Elizabeth Tucker Retiring At St. Mary’s
Miss Elizabeth Gordon
Tucker has personified one
advantage small college
campuses have over large
ones.
Many graduates of St.
Mary’s Junior College
whom Miss Tucker has
served over the past 36
years will testify that Miss
Tucker’s individual coun
seling, advice and help has
been a major advantage of
studying at St. Mary’s.
As retiring registrar at
the Episcopal high school
and junior college for girls.
Miss Tucker is proud of
the fact that over 90 per
cent of St. Mary’s junior
college graduates go on to
a senior college.

Putting-you-firsts:
(A quick tour of some of the thoughtful new features the 1969 Chevrolets
offer that other cars in Chevrolet's field don't.)
Headlight washers
You push the windshield
washer knob and hold it, and your
headlights come clean.
Fluid is diverted to two jet
nozzles at each light lens. (Outer
lights only on duals.)
The spray removes up to
80% of accumulated dirt.
The feature is standard on
1969 Corvettes. It cranes with the
hidden headlights available on
Camaro, Caprice and Kingswood
Estate Wagons. It is available on
all other models except Corvair.
Heated glass
In a moment your rear win
dow will self-defrost.
Because we've built onto it
a network of tiny ceramic strips
capable of heating the entire sur
face.
Fog and frost disappear
quickly and quietly. You just flick
a switch.
The heated rear window, is
available an the 1969 Caprice
Coupe and Impels Custom Coupe.
Pushbutton tire chains

instrument panel and the rear
tires get a shot of “liquid tire

Edenton, North Carolina, Thursday, October 3, 1968.
in an interview this week.
“That personal contact
with the people at St.
Mary's is what I'll miss
most.”
Her duties of recent
years as registrar have
been in sharp contrast to
her first couple of years
at St. Mary’s.
“In 1932, St. Mary’s was
in dire straits. We were
coming out of the depres
: ion. I came here with
Mrs. Ernest Cruikshank,
St. Mary’s first president.
We had to go out and beg
students to come. We
couldn’t hire staff or fac
ulty. We had to do a
little of everything to
keep the school going. Now
we have to be very selec
tive about students and
personnel," she compares.
Miss Tucker came with
Mrs.' Cruikshank to St.
Mary’s from Columbia In
stitute in Tennessee, which
was forced to close be
cause of the depression.
She served as secretary
to Mrs. Cruikshank and to
Dr. Richard G. Stone, who
became president in 1946.
He will retire at the end
of the 1968-69 school year.
As St. Mary's enrollment
grew. Miss Tucker also
assumed duties as fulltime
Manufacturer's Lie. No. 11#
registrar five years ago.
Thirty-six years ago, there
were about 150 students
and the curricula included
grades nine through 12 and
the first two years of col
lege.
Today St. Mary’s enroll
ment, is about 475 and the
curricula includes the last
two years of high school
and the first two of col
lege.
Upon retirement at the
end of Lie month, Miss
Tucker will return to her
home in Hertford, where
she was born. She moved
with her family to Wash
ington, D. C., and Ply
mouth before returning to
Hertford.
A graduate of St. Mary’s
herself, Miss Tucker’s
giandmother, great aunt
and sister also attended.
“I feel a part of it, in
volved in the whole
school,’’ she said. Indeed,
her work at St. Mary’s has
extended beyond the func
tions of secretary and reg
istrar. Ever since she and
Mrs. Cruickshank were
serving as jacks-of-all
trades to see St. Mary’s
through hard times, she
has served on many com
mittees and assumed many
responsibilities.
Miss Tucker has been a
major influence in bring
ing St. Mary’s to its pres-
I ent status.
As an avid bridge play
er, she is a life master and
treasurer of the Raleigh
Bridge Club for the 12th
year. She hopes to find
more time for bridge.
In 36 years, Miss Tucker
has worked with over
5,400 St. Mary’s students
on a close, personal basis.
“Many daughters of stu
dents I have worked with
are coming to St. Mary’s.
It appears I’ll be leaving
just before their grand
daughters get here.’’

Turnabout
“Does your wife go to j
church to see what other j
women wear?” asked j
snoopy Mr. Harris.
“Oh, no," rejoined the
newly-rich Mr. Updyke,
“my wife has so much
money to spend on clothes
now that she goes to
church to let the other
women see what she
wears.”

Your tomorrows will be

songs of love that will
turn into lovely music,
For in my fleeting day I

exquisite tenderness

devotion.
For in my fleeting day
and all of my tomorrows

and complete affection.
People shall marvel at
your love for it shall
abolish hatred one for

Our romantic love shall be
