SENIORS 2.5 Thus runs our train of thought when Helen is mentioned. Now Helen is a very capable and very entertaining little girl as well. We don ' t know what Philomatheia would have done without her. As Doll in Prunella , in spite of her unf eelingness she won our hearts. Speaking of hearts, won ' t we be proud and thrilled when she graduates and — and — guess we won ' t go into that after all. JOYCE JARMAN Jcii-man Scarsdale, New York Barnard Extension Course Three Years Basketball Team ' 27; Advisory Board ' 28; Posture Honor Roll ' 27, ' 28; Class Hockey Team ' 27; Varsity Hockey Team ' 28, ' 29; Second Hockey Team ' 27; Class Numerals ' 28; Griffin Hockey Team ' 28, ' 29. Jarman, carries out our idea of what the well-dressed girl should wear — a virtual echo of Vogue. But this isn ' t her main forte. Her dry English wit is unbeatable, and is particularly enhanced by the non-committal expression with which she utters her telling remarks. Hockey takes on new vigor when Joyce is play- ing steadily in the backfield, and we feel sure that she ' ll always be there to intercept that pass. F.

E. D. ' 29; Head of tennis, fall of ' 28; Hiking Leader ' 28; Senior-Mid Play ' 28; Club Tennis Team ' 28. Hulse , as we call her, has the most logical mind in the class, and her frankness is refreshing when we are wearied by too much suavity. We think that her determined jaw and broad shoulders, together with her logic, indicate that she would make a successful lawyer. Betty is a good sport, and plays an exceptionally strong game of tennis. And isn ' t West Point near Vassar? HELEN MERWIN HURLBURT Glastonbury, Conn.

26 THE ABBOT CIRCLE Q. E. D. ' 28, ' 29; Vice-President of Class ' 28; Numerals ' 28; Hiking Leader ' 29; Q. E. D. President ' 29; Head of Clock Golf ' 29; Athletic Council ' 29; Editor-in-Chief of Class Book ' 29. Brown wavy hair, deep brown eyes, a sunny disposish — that is Gwen. She upholds the beauty standards of our Class, and maybe our brothers at P. A. haven ' t discovered it too. The long and the short of them appear once a week and Gwen tactfully keeps them both happy. As for her missing a tea dance — that ' s beyond our imagination. However Gwen still has a weakness for the boy she left behind her in Cincinnati. We wonder if a snappy new brown Dodge has anything to do with it. But even with all her social activities and many letters Gwen has time to run Q. E. D. and to edit this book, and, as you can see, she has been very successful. Gwen, above all, is loved by everybody for her graciousness, her kind-heartedness and her sweetness. ELEANOR JONES Lebanon, N. H. Three Years A. D. S. ' 28, ' 29; A. D. S. Play ' 28, ' 29; Senior-Mid Play ' 28; Senior Play ' 29. We don ' t know Eleanor ' s plans for next year, but we are willing to recommend her as an actress to any theatrical producer. She has proven her dramatic talent here. Eleanor portrays many characters equally well. The Old Lady, an Irish maid, a gossiping neighbor, or a Pierrette. We could also vouch that she would make no show of temperament at rehearsals, but rather help to make things run more smoothly by her even dispo- sition.
