T 1 1 h A b bat C i r c 1 e 192 3 ELIZABETH WHITAKER Betty , Bett North Adams, Mass. Wellesley Two years Class Basketball Team ' 22, ' 23 Bible Group Leader ' 23 Northfield Delegate ' 22 Student Council Vice-President (sec. sem.) ' 23 Deep brown eyes running over with glee, Bonny brown eyes are the eyes for me. Betty comes from North Adams, the Home of the Mohawk Trail. Maybe that accounts for the wa ' rwhoop laugh that we all-stop to listen to. Betty likes Symphony concerts and College Math. Quite a combination! Just one word of warning — don ' t break your neck trying to get a look at those eyes. MARGARET WOLF New York City, N. Y. Smith Two years Class Hockey Team ' 23 French Play ' 22 Arm Band ' 22 Honor Roll ' 2. A tender heart, a will inflexible. Sure! is Margaret ' s pass word. Just ask her to do something for you and see if that ' s not so. Steadfast in work, firm in her views, she ' s as strong a girl as ever entered Abbot ' s gates. 28

The Abbot Circle 19 2 3 EMILY VAN PATTEN Pat Davenport, Iowa i wo years Draper Reader ' 22 French Play ' 22 Bible Group Leader ' 23 Fidelio ' 23 Conrant Board ' 23 Class Book Board ' 23 Senior Play ' 23 Senior Mid Play ' 22 The wisdom of many and the wit of one. All Emily lacks is a wig and gown, and before we know it, she ' ll have them. About ten years from now we ' ll be taking our lawsuits to Miss Van Patten, D. D. L. You see we ' re betting on Em. But we wonder if maybe she won ' t try the stage for a while first? We ' re sure she could succeed in any profession, however, and the more the merrier. ELEANOR WARREN Ellie Westfield, Mass. Two years Advisory Board ' 23 Glee Club ' 22 Arm Band ' 22 Northfield Delegate ' 22 Bible Group Leader ' 2i On thy face I see The map of honor, truth, and loyalty. She ' d work her hands off for a friend in need and that ' s not sarcastic, either. She tries to work herself to death in gym class — poor girl! and we ' re afraid Miss Nelson doesn ' t appreciate her efforts. But Elbe ' s not all work; if you ' ve never heard her giggle you ' ve missed a treat. We wouldn ' t call her exactly eccentric but it ' s absolutely true that she made her bed in the bath- tub, one night! ' S fact.

The Abbot Circle 192 3 MARY JANE WOLF Jane Rockwood, Penna. Randolph Macon College Two years Arm Band ' 22 Class Basketball Team ' 23 Few disputes exist which have not originated in women. Some day someone is going to be blinded by the reflection of light on Mary Jane ' s hair. Look for that blonde head whenever there ' s an argument going on — in the Senior Parlor or any place. But Mary Jane is merry Jane and deserves every nice thing that comes her way — especially if she has to argue for it. ESTHER DAMARIS WOOD Woodie Detroit, Michigan Two years Basketball Team ' 22, ' 23 A. A. A. Vice-President ' 23 A Society ' 22, ' 23 Entertainment Com. ' 23 Class Basketball Team ' 22 Bible Group Leader ' 23 Arm Band ' 23 Senior Mid Play ' 22 Small, but mighty in many ways. Not long after Woodie came to Abbot last year, we were all wondering how the Basketball Team ever beat Bradford in by-gone years, with- out Woodie. This year we wondered still more. Wherever Woodie goes, everyone else wants to go; whatever she does everyone else wants to do, for she ' s magnetic — just go into her room and you ' ll see. Besides being an ath- lete, and actress, and musician, and many other things, she ' s one lovable peach and everyone ' s friend.
