This is the usual cry when members of IVA see Margaret come into the room, for she always has a bag of candy. In a short time only the bag remains, but Mar- garet doesn't mind at all, for she is very generous and she knows we like her candy. Margaret is one of our soloists, and much to our delight entertains us quite often in music classes. She is not very fond of lessons, but when the time comes for dancing, she is Johnny on the Spot. WILLIAM MINSON POWELL The yawning youth. scarce half atuake. -Persius. Minnie. the quietr' Minnie, the sleepy. This is he. He has a queer little habit of coming to school every other day, since he believes variation is the spice of life. Another peculiar habit of his is having his lessons prepared, most of the time. We say most of the time, but at times when they are not prepared, he has good excuses to present. These excuses are even better than the ones he hands in for lateness. Minnie isn't noticeable in a crowd, but he's a wonder alone. DOROTHY NAOMI PROCTOR Eager of action.-Virgil. We can almost call Dot different from the rest of us, because she is always so sincere in everything she does and says. One always knows one has the truest of friends in Dottie, and she's helped more than one of us out of a hole. But no one is perfect. and Dot's one failing is talking continuously upon one sub- ject to her friends. However, Dot's sure to get along in this old wo'rld of ours. Twenty-nine

Philly is our class movie critic. When- ever a current picture is under discussion, he pipes up, Yes, it's a good one. I saw it yesterday. By careful calcula- tion it has been decided that he averages five trips a week to the movies. Philly is a firm supporter of the C. M. T. C.. and on the slightest provocation he will go into a lengthy discussion of the merits of army life. He is one of the most ardent workers on our year book board, and we might even dare to say that he has contributed as much work as the art editor himself. DOROTHY ELEANOR PHILLIPS Not to be startled by anything that ap- pears.-Horatius. Life is a joke: all things show it, seems to be the essence of Dot's phil- osophy. In casual acquaintance with Dorothy one gets the impression of a quiet and unassuming person. Now that we know her better, we find her optimistic attitude has aided her in en- joying her high school life as much as. or even more than, most of us have done. MARY LUELLA POOLE The most cautious.-Plautus. Silence is golden. This seems to be Mary's motto, for she never speaks un- less she is called on. Mary quietly goes about her work in a business-like man- ner, never bothering anyone else. Her books aren't always on time, but when they do come in she always gets A- Mary might be characterized as slow but sure. i Twenty-eight

And now we have Dave-Dave, the debonair and likable chap from Hale- thorpe. Of course, being from this city CU is a drawback, but we won't hold it against him. From a glance at his snapshot it will be seen that Dave has achieved man-sized trousers and wears them like a veteran, minus garters vetoed by a student vote. As this book is portraying the Roman Age, we must say that Dave is not fond of Latin. But Dave is certainly Roman, in fact. he roams all over the place, both on Shank's mare and in his Chrysler. ELIZABETH COLT SCHERMERHORN But I, light foot, will pass.-Ovid. Libby might be straight from Antwerp, but, of course, she's not. This tall maiden with black hair and brown eyes is our French star. It was her pro- ficiency in this language and her perf fect poise that helped to get her the part of Madame in Pomander Walk. Whenever a dance is on the program, Elizabeth may be found in the center of the floor showing new steps. MARGARET LEE SEIP They laugh, they sing.-Virgil. Margaret is the nearest thing to a night- ingale we have in our midst. Her un- usual ability as a song bird has mani- fested itself, and is quite well known all over the school. Many times she has honored us with a song, and once was presented with a bouquet made up of that rare yellow flower, the goldenrod. and some lovely blue posies, which she still treasures. Margaret's merry brown eyes always reflect her gay nature as set forth in her music. Thirty
