MARCIA FEINN In maiden meditation, fancy free. THREE YEARS Board of Editors of Salmagnndi Marionette Member, II-III-IV Marionette Play, II Glee Club, II-III-IV Cercle Francais, III-IV Socim Latinae, II-Ill Class Basketball, II-III Class Hockey, III Christmas Choir, IV Eleven seats down in the row by the window sits a girl, a stunning, black-eyed girl. We defy you to give her a fleeting glance! The black eyes have decreed that you shall look twice. If you are wise, you'll look deeper. There you'll find no Pandora's box with a thousand evils ready to burst forth, but a thoroughly gentle and attractive personality. You'll find a willingness to help, under- standing, and a rollicking sense of humor. Perhaps this will explain why a certain Chevrolet is never lonely, and why a certain driver is never alone. And, after all, what is more essential and winning than abundant good nature? r GERTRUDE A. GALE The glory of a firm, mpariaur mind. Two YEARS Board of Editors of Sulmagundi Marionette Member, Ill-IV Cetcle Francais, III-IV Socize Latina, III-IV Gertrude sits calmly, arms folded, surveying the scene from her calm heights. At least, that's what the casual observer might note-in addition, of course, to the lovely curly hair above the calm brow. Again appearances are most deceiving! Gertrude is far from being the lonely observer, although her keen mind must at times pass judgment on our follies. But she really and truly is the best friend a person could desire,-truly charitable, generous in word and deed, never too busy to help, always appreciating a good joke, and what's more, often making them. This is a case where you will be repaid for closer scrutiny. 'Twenty-nine

VIRGINIA DYER A Jzweei, altmrlizfe kind of grace. Two YEARS Board of Editors of Snlnmgundi Marionette Member, III, IV Class Hockey, III-IV White Hockey, III-IV Varsity Hockey, III-IV Captain of Class Hockey, III White Captain, IV Christmas Choir, IV Ginny might be called our Miss Saint Margaret's on both a beauty and a popularity ballot, and quite rightly, too. Her sweet, generous disposition alone would give her the vote-but think of the way she flies down the hockey held for goal! What could we do without her? is the repeated question of the Whites. No wonder! She's one of their best players, a good sportsman, and their captain. fThere seems to be an echo of that question in Ginny's frequent summons to the tele- phone.j But she deserves it all, for, figuratively speaking, she always is sympathy itself and ties up our hearts with loving words and gentle kindnesses. CHRISTINE ENGELKE Thur I .ileer my bark and mil, on even lveel, willy K gentle gale. THREE YEARS Assistant Editor ofSt1lmagumli Marionette Member, III-IV Marionette Play, IV Glee Club, II-III-IV Cercle Francais, Ill-IV Secretary of Cercle Franqais, IV Christmas Pageant, IV T OHL A11 If actions didn't speak louder than words, we might be tempted to think Chris a second Spectator, But don't be misled by her quiet smile and her unassuming mien. When she wants words, Chris has them,-and the right ones, too. The smile reveals a quiet friendliness and the modesty is as natural as the friendliness. But so far as we can see, Chris really needn't be modest! We have discovered her sweet voiceg her capable, logical mind, that cuts through the tangles of mathg and her ability in French Club and Marionettes. And we have admired-and loved her for it-her carrying on, whatever the task, no matter how diliicult. 'Twenly-eight

C. ELIZABETH GARDINER The power of llwugbl,--the magic of the mind. ONE YEAR Class Prophet Associate Editor of Magpie, IV Marionette Member, IV Marionette Play, IV Sociw Latinze, IV Senior Essay Contestant A clear and candid gaze confronts you--holcls you-and suddenly you discover that those eyes are also keen, subtle, penetrating. You think to yourself, Humph-this girl knows more about me than I ever told her. Then instead of fleeing, you straightway make friends with the clear and candid gaze and hnd a friend who is thoroughly human, lovable, and delightful! It is a source of wonder to us that one mortal can be so absorbed in Tolstoi one moment, and the next delight equally in a ten-cent store excursion. Strange how a love of intellectualism and a love of fun can combine in such a friendly spirit to make a matchless Lib! ii Lois KILEORN The ,alum of furbiofz and the would uf fllflllf The 0b.lL'l'l'L'Lj of all ub,vw'1fer.r. Form YEARS Marionette Member, IV Glee Club, I Cerclc Francais, lIl-IV Christmas Pageant, IV Lois with her smart gowns steps right from the pages of Vogue to grace our Sal. As a little girl -with long curls, we were about to add, but who could imagine her without that sleek black bob of hers?-Lois walked clemurely into the junior Room, and since that first moment, she has been one of the staunch backers of the school. And, in return, she receives just popularity. Some of it she's recently earned by her tonsorial skill. But, joking aside, why shouldn't she have a full mail box and a long invitation list? She has the appearance that makes you look twice, and the manners and dis- position that encourage you to call again. fffairly 3 OLUHW Que..
