In Hollywood Miss Betty Reed, The rising picture queen Was playing with Bob Taylor On the Metro-Goldwyn screen. They were not there, but we did hear That where the Yangtze rolls Marguerite and Alicia Rinderly Were giving their liues for souls. A stately, sweet-faced woman Who came up then from her car Was the world-famed joan Reams, A Metropolitan Opera star, The striking girl in yellow Who came next upon the scene, Said she was the Polly Sainton Who appeared upon the screen. Marian Warning's smiling face That night did not appear For she had to tend her greenhouse Out on Broadway-so we hear. In a suit of green and tailored brown That matched her auburn hair Sat the comedian of the jello hour Mary Catherine Gajney there. Margaret S. came in and said She'd scarcely time to stop For she had to set a finger ware At the Margo Beauty Shop. Georgiana Presser, a graduate nurse, And really the best to be had, Cares for orphans at St. Anthony's And mahes their small hearts glad. A blushing bride then sauntered in And paused awhile at the door, She'd just returned from Niagara Falls, It was Helen Rita Mohr. The Democratic Governor From Columbus, O., this year Was Mary Frances Hunter, S o we rose and gave a cheer. Senior Scroll, I936 Rita McGuire appeared on the stair Attired in a uniform neat, She now was employed by U. S. air lines As a stewardess pretty and sweet. feanne Hillabrand dashed into the room And joy was in her eyes, For her latest art exhibit Had won a national prize. Virginia ever noted For her gentleness galore Was a great success in business At the Ernsthausen store. Petite Marge Edwards tooh the stand I'd like to ash you all To help me crush the Socialists In the primaries this fall. Aline's painting scenery For the best Shahespearian plays, Ezfen as she copied Chaucer In those far of high school days. Ann Marie Zellers, that southern girl, Now lives a fairy tale life, For in Madrid a Spanish Count Has tahen her for his wife. Doris E. was absent, She had gone far o'er the tides In a uilla large at Naples Is where she now resides. POST VIEW I rubbed my eyes and started up, It seemed I was alone once nzore, The room was dark, the embers dead, W' here were those happy girls of yore? And then far off in the twilight A trumpet sounded clear. It filled the air with music And gently soothed my ear. - The lay then sounded fainter And floated far auzzy. Virginia Earl was playing taps To end a perfect day. -sabyu II4

-autobiography of the spirit of '36 OUR years ago I first saw the light of dawning day. It was on a September morn in the year 1932. I don't think that anyone really knew what spirit was until they saw it in the class of '36. From the very first day when forty-four girls, straight from grade school barged into room 115 and established themselves as the class of '36 I knew that I would be proud of the name I bore. I'll always remember Pauline Sainton with her long, straight hair and her pale face, entirely devoid of any make-up whatever, and Mary Catherine Gaffney. who was the shortest girl in the class. My sympathies overflowed in the winter that year when I saw those timid little Freshmen, standing, day after day, in rain and snow, giving first place to the upper classmen in the tea house. I shall always remember the way my little custodians of that year absolutely shocked the whole school by the apparent overflow of energy which they all seemed to have in abundance. I'll never forget how proud I was of them when their skit, which won first place in a pep meet- ing contest conducted for the first Cherry Blossom Festa, started a panic in the audience. Virginia Werner as Gracie Allen kept the students and faculty alike in stitches. That year they seemed to come out on top in everything they did. Idon't think I'll ever see nine months go by as quickly. Vacation flew by and once again the opening day but this time I was back- ing sophomores. The first feeling that seemed to come over my girls was one of relief at no longer being freshmen. They seemed to realize that suddenly they were the sister class of the seniors and models for the freshmen, consequently they added Il5 -Barbara Brannan, '36 a hitherto undreamed of dignity. Records show, however, that a few had left my class for various reasons, but joan Reams joined it and made up for those who had gone. With Sister Raymond in charge, the class gave a play for the missions called, A Study in Black and White. Georgianna Presser made an ideal colored mammy with a large group of sophomores as her little pickaninnies. The play was a success and added an amount to their mission fund. Tap-dancing lessons during the gym period developed new talent among the ever progressive sophs, except for Vir- ginia Gelin, who, as soon as they started dancing was sent to open the windows. By the end of the sophomore year the spirit of '56 had been firmly established as a part of life at St. Ursula's. The next September marked the begin- ning of the second half of their lives at U. A. With it came new pleasures as well as feelings of responsibility. The sec- ond floor was now their domain. They were honored by being allowed to occupy seats in the center of the auditorium for instructions and assemblies, the seniors only were served before them in the tea. house. The first day of school Virginia Earl started the year off by coming in late and bounced into junior records when her chair, too weak to cope with the heavy responsibility, suddenly gave up the strug- gle and collapsed leaving Virginia a heap on the floor. Anna Marie Zellers, Alicia Rinderly, and Marcella Breska joined us that Sep- tember and it was not long before they too, caught the real spirit of '36. In November with the help of Sister Mil- dred they gave a debate based on their study of A Tale of Two Cities. Doris Effler, as chairman, kept peace and re- I936, Senior Scroll
