SENIORS 1.5 Society ' 28, ' 29; Chevrons ' 29; Senior-Mid Play ' 28; Advisory Board ' 28; Northfield Delegate ' 28; Honor Roll ' 29. First and foremost, Alish runs our athletics. She is certainly capable of this task, as she shines in every sport going; and if anyone knows the meaning of the word sportsmanship , that person is Alish . But the name Alice Butler is honored in other ways, for hasn ' t it a firm position on the Honor Roll? Yes, Alish knows a lot about books too. May and Alish are a great pair of roommates. We often wonder what they ' d be up to if Alish weren ' t on Stu. G. As it is, there is always a lively time to be had when they are both around. We feel that Alish is an indis- pensable member of ' 29. CHARLOTTE SERENA BUTLER Meriden, Conn. Smith Two Years President of class ' 28; Vice- President A. C. A. ' 29; Treasurer A. A. A. ' 29; Advisory Board ' 29; Athletic Council ' 29; Abbot Birth- day Committee ' 29; Hockey Team ' 29; Track Team ' 28; Posture Committee ' 29; Student Council ' 29; Honor Roll ' 28, ' 29; Odeon ' 28, ' 29; Numerals ' 28; Senior Play ' 29; Senior-Mid Play ' 28. Charl was famous last year for her wee, small voice, but even so she made a very successful president of our senior-mid class. Her voice must have gained strength with age, for she played Mouth in the senior play, which was a rowdy, rackety part. Charl is also small in stature, yet she made the hockey team over many huskier candidates. When it comes to her brains, however, small is just the wrong word, for Charl is one of these brilliant girls! She passed all her college boards last year and is merely taking this year ' s work for a firmer foundation.

Kay is the life of the party no matter where she may be. She is one of our best dancers, and may always be counted on for a never- ending stream of bright remarks ' ' . By the way, Kay, where do you get that slang? Food is one of the chief interests in Kay ' s life, and she does get away with a sur- prisingly large amount of it. Remember the box-lunch, or lunches, she had on the train going to Intervale? Her cheery good nature and sunny spirit have carried us through many a dark day.

16 THE ABBOT CIRCLE GERTRUDE MAE CAMPION Andover, Mass. Four Years Fidelio ' 27, ' 28, ' 29; Aeolian ' 28, ' 29; Secretary and Treasurer of Aeolian ' 29. Gertie is what one might call a frail flower. She seems so delicate that one good puff of wind might blow her completely away, but that doesn ' t mean she can ' t do things. Just hearing her play the piano will more than prove that. She has been in Fidelio for three years and in the Aeolian Society for two and, as you may see above, she is now Secretary-Treasurer of Aeolian. Gertie is -another day- scholar that we boarders have become really acquainted with this year, partly through the Senior Parlor, and partly through Intervale — and we surely are grateful to both. FRANCES CONDIT COBB Cobb Boonton, N. J. Pratt Institute Five Years Fidelio ' 23, ' 24; Northfield ' 25, ' 28; Entertainment Committee ' 28; Croquet Team ' 29; Senior Play ' 29. Cobb has been here five years altogether. She left one year and went to another school — only to discover, as all true Abbot girls do, that Abbot is the best school after all — and the cat came back . We ' re glad she did. Imagine our class without Cobb ' s
