22 THE ABBOT CIRCLE outside?? She may be quiet, but she ' s none the less popular (so we hear), with the inmates of our brother school on the hill! Who would doubt the fact, knowing her engaging smile and twinkling blue eyes? Dot is quite the rider, as we discovered at Intervale where she so aptly led the skijorers. And that wasn ' t the only thing she did at Intervale — speaking of pipes bursting! Wilson College HARRIET BEATTY GILMORE ' ' Gillie Chambersburg, Penn. Three Years L. B. A.

' 29; Advisory Board ' 29; Class Secretary ' 28; Class Treas- urer ' 27; Club Hockey Team ' 29; Gillie has many accom- plishments. Besides keeping us straight as President of A. C. A., she handled the new girls with great skill, and as a staunch mem- ber of L. B. A. has helped decorate many banquets. And did you ever see such a crowded room as Gillie ' s when the picture arrived? Why, there wasn ' t elbow room! And some people wonder why Gentlemen Prefer Blondes !

She certainly brings lovely ones — and often we wonder where they go ! MARY KENDRICK FRANCIS Polly Andover, Mass. Art School Five Years Fidelio ' 25, ' 26, ' 27, ' 28, ' 29; Armband ' 25; Track Team ' 28; Numerals ' 28; Student Council ' 28, ' 29; Third Vice-President of Student Council ' 29; A. D. S.

She is either Robert Trowbridge, Jakob Zorn, Gioconda, Harry, or best of all, Pierrot! For hours, we sit enthralled, listening to the passionate voice of our ideal man — then, plop! The lights are on and there stands Polly, our hero. Do you think we are disappointed? Not on your life! Boy or girl, on stage or off, we love her just the same. But acting is only one of Polly ' s numerous virtues. Doesn ' t she make those wild and reckless day-scholars toe the line? HESTER DOROTHE GERRISH Dot Andover, Mass. Holyoke Five Years Odeon ' 29; Entertainment Com- mittee ' 29. Dot may seem quiet in school, but is she that way

Lo is one of the busiest girls in the school, and in spite of all her business, she tops the honor roll, smiles continually, and adores athletics. Any day you may see her riding horseback, or training rigorously to heighten her speed for hockey or track. Complaints and frowns are nonentities in Lois ' life, and in years to come we ' ll remember that she could be de- pended upon to get things done, and that her hair was curly and almost golden. MARY JEANETTE HUBBARD Jean Pontiac, Mich. University of Michigan Les Beaux Arts ' 28, ' 29; Vice- President and Secretary of L. B. A. ' 29. Jeanette is our blushing prim- rose (with all due respects to Jarman). Jean, Jean, with her cheeks so red; we wonder if she takes them off before she goes to bed. Jean is a talented member of L. B. A., and helps us out with artistic posters now and then. To a casual observer she may appear quiet, but not so! When she and Jarman get together, they ' re cer- tainly a witty pair! Three Years
