' 24 Chairman of Calendar Committee ' 24 We must laugh before we are happy. Giggle giggle! I wonder who that can be? It ' s not very hard to guess. That ' s Betty Bragg. How many times a day do we hear Betty ' s laugh run up and down the scale! But there is a great deal more to Betty than that. She can draw and sketch like a real one . Does she act? Think of the Senior Play!! POLLY ETHEL BULLARD Pol Elmira, N. Y.

r h e Abbot C i r c 1 19 24 LAURA PHILBRICK BLISS Laurie Burlington, Vermont University of Vermont Two years Arm Band ' 22 Clock Golf ' 23 Courant Board ' 23, ' 24 Bible Group Leader ' 24 Honor Roll ' 24 Knowledge comes of learning well-retained Cover up all of Laura ' s picture except the mouth, and could we fail to know her? But that ' s not the important part, — at least to us! Ask the College English class if Laura can write stories. Look in the Courant for samples of all her writings. Laura played Clock Golf for us on Bradford Day, and it ' s just like a lesson to watch her. And Clock Golf is not the only game she plays. If you are somewhat unexperienced in bridge, play with her, not against her! Laura is versatile and very lovable. PRISCILLA BRADLEY Pris Hartford, Conn. Art School Four years Fidelio ' 22 Q. E. D.

Squeak, Squeak, Giggle, He-Haw! Here comes Pris. Could anyone doubt that? Never! There is a shirt-waist string, and here a hairpin falling out. Who is that? Pris! She ' s in the A Society, Q. E. D., Senior Play; is on the Student Council, Advisory Board, — Say is there anything she isn ' t in?

The Abbot Circle 1924 MARGARET BUSH Peggy Essex Fells, New Jersey Wellesley Two years Arm Band ' 23 Basketball Numerals ' 23, ' 24 Honor Roll ' 23, ' 24 Basketball Team ' 24 A Society ' 24 Q. E. D. ' 24 Bible Group Leader ' 24 A. A. A. Treasurer ' 24 Senior Play ' 24 There is great ability in knowing how to conceal one ' s ability. Peg is one of our numerous athletes. She can do almost everything. We know because we saw her impersonating Ben Hur at Intervale, on the toboggan slide. Peg is a fine all-around girl, and can she laugh?! The rashest thing she has yet done is bob her hair!! Peg is chuck full of pep when it comes to fun, and determination when it comes to studies! NANCY CHAMBERLIN Hefty Windsor, Connecticut Wellesley Two years Class Book Board Arm Band ' 23 Fidelio ' 23, ' 24 Honor Roll ' 24 Spanish Play ' 24 French Play ' 2 4 Thumping, and plumping Bumping, and jumping. Will we ever forget Hefty in Math class? I don ' t believe it ! When to our great delight and Miss Kelsey ' s chagrin, she would wave the pointer wildly over her head, trying in vain to explain her problem. What contortions Hefty did have to make to get into her clothes going down to breakfast! Her favorite haunt was the tea-room where she would indulge — -extrava- gant creature — in a cup of black coffee; but very reducing, eh Hefty ?
