FLORENCE CAPEK “Oh, yah?” Florence came to us at the beginning of the senior year, but since she is a good mixer, it did not take her long to become acquainted with us all.

DORIS CHASE “Well, of all things!” She is like a little sparrow—always dart- ing hither and thither, picking up little crumbs of news, and chirping bright sayings to any attentive ear.
