1 f I Eileen Cox C ILEEN thought she knew how to disguise a yawn; or rather, that she knew how - ' to prevent an interior yawn from showing on her face. But one prof, knew the symptoms. He was old at the game and Eileen had had only three years ' practice. She was caught and we all enjoyed the joke. But don ' t leap to the conclusion that Eileen is sleepy. The reverse is quite easily proved. She is among the renowned few who did college in three and a half years, and she is president of the Abacus Club, the study club of the Mathematics Department. Her favorite indoor sport is playing with calculus and the history of Oriental notation. Eileen enjoys a practical joke better than anyone, whether it is on herself or the other fellow. She is fond of playing them and takes them like a good sport. That is why the story of the yawn has become famous. tt gaOA-gCisTSQ T J ShsL ?

i I Agnes Gervase Coughlan V7 HAR HOOK write-ups sometimes seem to reveal a race of super-women, efficient and A successful in all they undertake. And we certainly lay no claim to such eminence. This prologue is necessary before Agnes ' s sketch for we have a funny feeling that when we finish you might doubt us and think we did believe quite firmly in our own greatness. Agnes has served the class of 1930 in a very special way. As treasurer for two years, she faithfully guarded our finances. As a member of the Junior Promenade Committee, she helped make that the success which we so well remember. But it was as Class President in Senior year that Agnes really distinguished herself. In this position of responsibility she fulfilled our ideal of an executive completely. At the beginning of the term she was president pro tern, of the Undergraduate Association, and conducted the election of U. A. officers. As Chairman of Parents ' Day, the first in the history of the college, Agnes established a precedent that succeeding classes may well follow. As Honorary Chairman of the Senior Promenade, she was in fact an active member of the committee. She also helped the program of Senior week. Withal, Agnes is quiet and to use an old, old phrase, unassuming; but this one characteristic makes one confident of her success, always. Eighteen 4 O g TiQT 3Q

t i I Margaret M. Crowley A dillar, a dollar, a ten o ' clock scholar! Why do yon come so soon? You used to come at ten o ' clock. But now . ' BELIEVE it or not, though, coming at ten o ' clock is making the trip in good time for Margaret. We think that if her daily mileage were totalled, she would have the distinction of being the world ' s greatest traveler. But it is hardly fair to introduce Margaret as the tardy member of the class, for actually she is known better for her quiet, but nevertheless constant, support and strong loyalty to Thirty. She is pos- sessed of a fine reserve, and it takes one a long time to know her — but, knowing her, one is proud to call her friend. Margaret ' s abilities lie very definitely in her chosen work. We will not forget the thoroughly capable way she conducted a lesson one day in English Methods. And who could forget the comments of the professor on the young teacher ' s pleasing appear- ance — who could, having seen Margaret ' s blue eyes? Twenty r) ( LJX 9 30 TU SL3
