Alaska Never lacking a witty remark, always possessing a good sense of humor, and having the ahility to blush to a deep rose in modesty mark Jean as one of the most prominent girls of the Senior class. It has been wonderful to see Jean, in her four years here, suc- ceed and win the most coveted of Seminary honors, such as leading the student body, presiding over Stu dent Councd. and carrying the chapel cross. In all of these, she has carried her responsibility and upheld the trust we have placed in her. We take pride in Jean and her many achievements, and we shall al ways remember her swinging leg. loyalty to the Eski mos, and her dimpled smde. for she has truly been the key ' girl of our class. MARSHA MOFFAT YORK Tacoma. Washington Weren ' t we supposed to have a test on Monday? asks Tuppy with half the class hissing at her so that the teacher won t hear. It s not that Tuppy likes tests, it s just that she likes to be rid of them. One less exam means more otuside time to practice for the hockey and basketball games, and the bowling and badminton tournaments, for Tuppy is one of our most enthusiastic Slues. Her activities don ' t end with sports. In the journalistu held, she was editor of our Junior Journal and slai ed many hours on the Shield Staff. Her list of achievements is a long one: S.A.C., Flag Bearer. Maid of Honor, and Vice President of the Senior Class are a few of them. Yes. Tuppy has been one of the strong pillars of the Senior Class, five feet seven inches of reliability, good sportsman ship, and fun.
