But that ' s not the important part, — at least to us! Ask the College English class if Laura can write stories. Look in the Courant for samples of all her writings. Laura played Clock Golf for us on Bradford Day, and it ' s just like a lesson to watch her. And Clock Golf is not the only game she plays. If you are somewhat unexperienced in bridge, play with her, not against her! Laura is versatile and very lovable. PRISCILLA BRADLEY " Pris " Hartford, Conn. Art School Four years Fidelio ' 22 Q. E.

T h e A b b o t C i r c 1 e 19 24 DOROTHY ADAMS ' ' Dottle " , " Dor ' 1 Pittsfield, X. H. Smith College Two years Fidelio ' 23, ' 24 Baseball Numerals ' 23 Arm Band ' 23 " Music can touch beyond all else The soul that loves it best. " When there ' s fun to be had you don ' t have to look far for Dottie. She lived in Sherman cottage last year and that ' s all I ' ll say except that if you want a good recipe for making fudge just ask Dottie. Better make fudge before " lights out " after this, Dot. Fudge making is a mere detail in her life compared with her musical ability. We hope she will continue with her music for we are planning on our Dottie being famous.

Syracuse Three years Hockey Numerals ' 23, 24 English V Play ' 23 Class Treasurer ' 22 " The only way to have a friend is to be one " " Say, did you hear — ? " Then there is much whispering together and all the latest gossip is transferred to the newest-comer. If you want to learn news just ask Dottie. She knows! She certainly does have a h ard time keeping her room-mate on the straight and narrow path. — Especially about bobbed hair! Dottie is going to Syracuse next year too. We know she ' ll make a success there because she knows just how to be a good friend. 14

How many times a day do we hear Betty ' s laugh run up and down the scale! But there is a great deal more to Betty than that. She can draw and sketch like " a real one " . Does she act?
