GEORGE BRUNSON-,With the stamina of an all-night bridge player and the rash audacity of a camera fiend, George can hold his own with any econ prof on campus. Formerly '44 material, the Army marched and mechan- ized him all over Germany. His ambition- 'To achieve Unity with the Timeless. LOUISE BUENGER-A history major, Bing can tell you what happened from 'way back. Four years with the Chapel choir, charter membership with the glee club, Friday night sym- phony concerts, are but exam- ples of her many musical inter- ests. When it comes to riding and skiing, she knows all the tricks. LUCILLE BURNHAM-Lucy's English major shares the lime- light with outside activities. An expert at the French horn, she has been one of the main links for four years in orchestra, band, and chapel choir. One of the most active letter-writers on campus, she's wearing smooth somebody's P. O. box. ROBERT CAREY-Bob spent 14 months overseas on an AKA. A former '45, married to Jean- ette Davey C44j, he's the father of a baby girl. He tells us that his first baby was the '42-'43 dance band, and Careys on the tradition with his singing at dreamy Sayles-Hill dances. He likes golf, music, and more mu- sic. Incidentally, wants to go on in music. X AUDREY CARLSON-Club- woman Audrey not only joins 'em but she works on 'em. Long remembered for her '46 CBS lead, Aud could alternate quick- ly from sultry siren to serious pscyh major. She knits, she plays bridge, she had a divine time at the '44 Congressional Ball, and she plans ultimate matrimony, of course. NORBERT C A R L S O N-Al- though Norb was chosen on the All-Conference football squad, and lettered in hockey, he may be better remembered for his role as Santa Claus at the Philos' Christmas party and for his ef- fective disciplining of Senior Court offenders. As a Marine he studied at Oberlin in prepa- ration for duty in China. JOAN CHASE-Birdie, with a double major in violin and pub- lic school music, has been an ac- tive member of the Carleton or- chestra, but we think it's Bob that makes the bridal chorus from Lohengrin her favorite melody. As a junior she was a popular member of the Davis squelcher squad, and it was only in the senile stages of her senior year that she discovered knitting. ' STEPHEN CHASE-A member of Carleton's V-12 colony at St. Mary's, Stephe returned to Carle- ton from the late great war a married man QElinor, '45j. Un- der the new order, Stephe's for- mer talents have been shelved in favor of the assiduous pursuance of an econ major. Object: injec- tion of the Keynesian theory in- to Eskimo economy. G E O R G E CHRISTIE-Chris formed an integral part of Griff's third Severance water- bomb battalion and while play- ing bridge to lamented calls of Geoorge, and zooming VVillis from Wold-Chamberlain, found time to spend 32 months as a pilot in the Navy and to return to complete his econ major. He's single-and how-and wants to be a success. CARL XVILSON CLESSLER- Formerly '44, Carl returned after three years' destroyer escort duty with a beautiful plural on the Clessler name. His other inter- ests run to collecting jive, books, and bridge trophies Qsee Carl tournament champ, '42 divisionj, and running to the grassy greens whenever he has a chance. His ambitions are golf and business -in that order. Page 15

. 1 its Yay ,, t, Y vi! X , R 4 f - ' Page 14 JOSEPHINE FINCK BERG- Carls all thought Joey whizzed when she backed the cabinets of YVAA, Y, and Women's League, junior-headed in Davis, served on Co-op, and a little swimming and skiing on the side, but they hadn't seen anything until she stepped up her soc major to graduate in January and marry Bob the day Christmas vacation started. JOHN BIERMAN-Three years with the Army Air Corps in the North Atlantic QLabrador, New- foundlandj, and the ETO, .in- terrupted John's '44 graduation plans. He leaves Carleton for Michigan or Minnesota graduate school, having acquired a history major, wife Betsy f'45J, and son John, Jr., frosh football numer- als, and membership in the Phi- los and history club. VINCENT BJOIN-Vince left Carleton after two years of band, choir, and intramural sports, to return after three years of Navy to live in the Severance tower, look at the choir from front row chapel, and graduate in Febru- ary. He spent a term in the Navy at the Harvard business school and aims at the field of economics with his major. Hope Joyce is thrifty! JANE BLOSSOM-The pride of Peoria Heights, Blossie has succeeded in discovering the amusing and amazing in all her Carleton activities. She majors in psych, sort of, but her deepest energies were directed towards art, the walls of second Nourse being not the least of her achievements. Her tales of Life with F. M. never cease to astound all within earshot. ELINOR BOESENBURG-As a member of the Phelan Fan club, Boesy devoted the strength of her days to the study of sociol- ogy, although LWV, econ club, and psych club also demanded a share of her time, not to men- tion collecting for CSF, running a Junior Carnival booth and in- dulging in her favorite pastime, knitting. BERNARD BOLLS-Free and 21, Bernie's time has been di- vided between Purdue camp- ing, the woods, Burton kitchen, the Flying Carls, and an econom- ics major. Though a constant admirer of Carleton's femininity, he is very anxious to leave Qin- sists on diploma, howeverj. With that in his pocket, Bernie will unleash' the waters of Ly- man Lakes into the Cannon. PHYLLIS BORMAN-A cheery smile and perpetually happy outlook on life best character- ize Phyl. Most often seen wan- dering into the music hall or setting off to practice-teach, she majored in public school music and intends to teach upon grad- uation. The choir and music occupied most of her four years in addition to swimming, skat- ing, and movies. S U S A N BRECKENRIDGE- Whenever there's a big job to be done, Breck's on the committee to do it. CSF, Co-op, CBS, Y, SWIC-these are among the campus activities with which she was actively concerned. On weekends Sue dropped her knit- ting needles and soc books to keep those love lights burning in Minneapolis JAMES BROOKS-Twin broth- er to Bob, Jim's interests are centered around the water. ln the Navy for three years with duty in the Philippines, he re- turned to Carleton to continue on the swimming team and to join the econ and camera clubs. A sociable guy, Jim is always ready to discuss econ, his major, or any topic on the fire at the moment. ROBERT BROOKS-The other half of the Brooks team, Bob is often mistaken for Jim, although he does as well as his brother on the East Side. St. Marys and Columbia nabbed him for the Navy program and he was over- seas for a year and a half as a CO of an LCS. Swimming, track, and his major, econ, are his interests.

Page 16 JUSTIN C. CRAWFORD-Can rying on the Culver tradition, Jus is exceptionally talented in pursuing electronic phenomena around the physics lab. On a par with Culbertson at the bridge table, an authority on the occupation of Germany, and a former member of Patton's pill- box-pushers, Jus is glad to be back on the Carl campus. CHARLES CROSS-Chuck came to Carleton from the Orient. He has been active in hockey, track, the Cosmopolitan club, the AVC, the Philos, an MS contributor, and was president of the IRC. As a Marine ofhcer he saw serv- ice in the Marshalls, Saipan, Tinian, Iwo Jima, and China. Married and a proud father, Chuck will continue his studies in international relations. ROBERT CROSS-Overseas 22 months in China, Bob, former '44, returned to continue with women, photography, and a ge- ography major. Did philosophy 301 have anything to do with his desire for Unity with Time- less? or was it sculling in Grid- ley? JOAN CROSSMAN-A fine horsewoman, Jody practiced her skill at Cheley Camp and is an enthusiastic booster of the Colo- rado Park. She established her reputation in the equestrian art by appearing in four Carleton horse shows. An English major purely for the love of it, versa- tile Jody plans to try interior decorating as her first venture into the career world. CYNTHIA DAVIDSON-Cindy's activities at Carleton largely in- volved the literary, and MS car- ried a number of Davidson con- tributions during her sojourn here. Creative writing club and discussion groups also found her an interested participant, as did the swimming team which she sparked to victory in an inter- collegiate telegraphic meet. The pearl on her left hand signifies her post-graduate plans. EDITH D A V I D S O N-Edie's past, present, and future concern a guy named Bill, and she has the left hand ornament to prove it. Seen behind the counter or on the other end of a Tea Room tray, Edie was also social chair- man for Women's League, served two years on the WAA board, was senior dorm president, and JS and '46 Homecoming were successful because of her aid in decorating. ROBERT DAVIS-Another of the St. Mary's boys, Torger' glanced briefly at Carleton as a freshman and as a senior. His math major, however, takes a back seat in any conversation in- volving gliding down Carleton's snow-capped mountains or plow- ing through the waves, as he hopes, in the annual Mackinac race. Frosh track, photography, waiting, and MS provide other data on Davis diversions. GEORGANNA DEAN-George is definitely from Princeton. Knitting in hand, she can be found in the midst of almost any debate. Happiest when she is busy, she is always anxious to lend a hand in any of Carle- ton's pet projects. Anxious to help a friend, too, whether it be information you need or just a sandwich from the T. R. MARY DEANS-XVith Mary's arrival Duluth became more than a dot on the map, as fas- cinated friends learned its social, political, and economic aspects. A genuine interest in people and contemporary affairs, a sub- tle sense of humor, and a quick wit earned her secretaryship of the econ club, and point up her amazing versatility ranging from econ to eating and sleeping. MARY ELLEN DENNIS-Melly provided much enjoyment for Carls with her pianistic talents. Anything musical such as choir, glee club, accompanying, found her a willing participant, as did the '46 chapel committee and MS editorial staff, LXVV, and the Y. The future? Carleton's sis- ter school, Michigan, and then- only John knows.
