RUTH SIBLEY PRATT JRufbie 109 Central Street, Andover, Mass. Tito Years Who can probe the mysteries of those talks about the Crystal Ballroom and the Casa Loraa Orchestra, when Ruth and the gang get their heads together? But even if, mv friends, such se- crets are not for us, it would not require the powers of a Sherlock Holmes to realize that blond curls, lovely coloring, and a bubbling laugh are the stuff that popularity is made of. even when not seasoned, as thev are in Ruthie ' s case, by a liberal sprinkling of intelligence.

To wit, she designs her own clothes, is a whiz at phvsics, and can certainly convince the male sex of the value of these attractions. And dare we mention those evening lullabies to that cotton P g !

Smith CLAIRE RUTH OPPENHEIM 81 Sunray Street, Lawrence, Mass. Two Years Claire is one of those Lawrence day scholars whom we get to know through the medium of the senior parlor. Who will ever forget those grins of hysteri- cal joy on Claire ' s face at the latest sally of Dossy, her aide-de-camp? Or that original(??) dance step, executed in the senior parlor to the slight detriment of floor and carpet 3 Claire also has a sly, oh most sly sense of humor all her own, that various of us who are on the inside have come to appreciate.

Four Years A brief glimpse of twinkling eyes, peering out from under a very Frenchy bang, a familiar, cheery Hi, dear! , and Jean from good ol ' Canada is in our midst. We ' re certainly going to miss Jean next year, but the question is will Jean miss us? For you really can ' t blame us for wondering, considering the alarminglv regular arrival of certain letters, just how soon it will be, before she goes back to Canada for good. A.D.S.

ALICE BEST ROBINSON 30 Chedell Place, Auburn, New York Vassar Three Years Alice is one of those people with a decided taste for things literary- Some of us perhaps can think back several vears to the time when Alice first came to Abbot, and used to hold colloquia in her room over crackers, peanut-butter, and Beau Geste. We also have great admiration for Alice ' s cleverness at the piano, and we would rather hear her play a Brahms waltz than almost anvbodv we know.

Smith Two Years Dossv, our class bluffer! We ask you if vou remember Dossy, slumbering in the senior parlor, franticallv embracing three or more pillows, or that famous kick of disapproval when the world was treating her pretty shabbily? We all look upon Intervale as the great exposition of Dossy ' s quaint humor and musical ability, just in case you didn ' t happen to know that she plays everything from Beethoven ' s Moonlight Sonata to Gershwin ' s Rhapsody in Blue. Yes, indeed we venture to say that in this respect Dossy will continue to make a play for attention. Day Scholars Entertainment ' 34 Abbot Birthday Committee ' 34 31
