IGNATIUS ATHLETIC CLUB-'30, '31 Sweet ae the thoughts that savour of content, The quiet mind is richer than a crown. UNE might say that Marion has appeared among us unobtrusively. However, to her companions she is always a reserved, friendly comrade with a certain humorous nature concealed beneath her serenity. In all that she undertakes, in studies or athletics, she manifests a steadfast determination and confidence in her own ability. Marion's latent ambition has not yet been learned, but with her unusual perseverance, she will achieve great things, pursue steadily her life work, and stop only when the highlights of merit and nobility are reached.

WEIR HOLY NAME Damvmric CLUBVSSO, '31 RECEPTION COMMITTEE?l31 Elegant as simplicity and warm as ecstasy. WHEN recollections of these dear old goldenfrule days return to us in years to come, our thoughts will include this pleasing Miss, whose infectious laugh and optimistic nature has brightened our Cathedral school days. She is a fluent conversationist and a devotee of dancing. Her school spirit has been evidenced in the many activities to which she devoted her time and talent. Her warmth of disposition, her original opinions and her characteristic frankness can only merit honor for her. Let the old Caesarian expression Veni, vidi, vici be your motto, Anne, and when you have conquered, may we be among the first to voice our congratulations. inf VIRGINIA possesses a somewhat duplex disposition, she is at once serene and drole. Her sparkling Wit has entertained us during many a dull moment, and her knack of deriving fun from the most serious incidents makes her a lively and desirable chum. She is quiet at times, and at others all gaiety. Her laugh is deep, and resonant with a genuine ring. We love Virginia, not for what she has accomplished, but for what she is, a universal good sport, comrade, friend and loyal mate all in one, an enigmatic, yet none the less appealing young lady.
