She is as good on the hockey field as she is— well, just anywhere else! Her room is usually full of peop ' e. either because of an important A. A. A. meeting — Fran ' s president of A. A. A., you know — or just because her socialness naturally draws people. Fran ' s halo of golden hair is most becoming, but is hardly compatible with her vivacious personality.

Who ' s that playing the piano so beautifully? Why. it ' s Bertha of course! She ' s one of those com- fortable musicians who hadn ' t a lot of temperamental oddities which prevent her from making friends. She always has a smile for everyone, and more than once, unwittingly, perhaps, cheered up some downcast per- son. We thank Maine for sending us such a repre- sentative. 24

The Abbot Circle 1 933 HELEN BULLARD RICE 14 Winthrop St.. Marlboro. Mass. Five Years Philomatheia ' 32 Student Government 33 Vice-President A. A.

' 33 Numerals 30 Chevron 32 Senior-Mid Plav ' 32 Secretary Junior-Mids ' 31 Athletic Council ' 33 There ' s only a few of us left applies to Helen in two ways! First, she has dwelt within these hallowed halls for five years, which is more than most of us have done, and second, while the good dispositions and good tempers of many are flying out the windows. Helen ' s remains unchanged. All our diet addicts gaze upon the fair Helen ' s figure with ill-disguised envy and wonder why they aren ' t naturally slim and slender. As a dancer Helen ranks at the top of our list. And how sorry we are she couldn ' t go to Intervale with us. JANE BRADLEY RITCHIE 4 Arundel St.. Andover. Mass. Four Years Numerals 30 Club Basketball 29. 30. 31. ' 32 Bible Recitations ' 29 Senior Play ' 33 When the little red car comes through the gates, general opinion has it that Jane Ritchie has arrived. How we ' d miss that essential part of the Circle if it weren ' t there, and even more so its occupant, for al- though she ' s quiet and unobtrusive we couldn ' t get along without her. We ' ve heard you excel in the culinary art. among other things. How about it. Jane? 26
