FRIENDS, we introduce to you one of our leading literary critics. Anne has provided many pleasant moments for us with her deep appreciation of the subtleties of literature. We shall above all, remember her for strength of character and determination. Yet calm and unconcerned as the mountain stream, she def lights in meditation. Her work, however, has always been characterized by initiative, energy and optimism. Never shall the memory of Anne, whose solid virtue the shot of accident, or dart of chance could neither gaze or pierce, leave us. I W fl f I V ST. ALOYSIUS, GREAT NECK, L. I.

GLEB CLUB JEAN DICKSON HOLY TRINITY Mildest of manners and kindest of hearts. EAN came to us not heralded by the blare of trumpets, but with a shyness that has never deserted her in the time that has elapsed since our first acquaintance. She is a girl who daily attends to her tasks with as zealous promptif tude that is part of her character. Taking her past achievements as a criterion, we have no doubt that she will become a great credit to her Alma Mater even when time has gently effaced memories of high school days. l HELEN AGNES DONNELLY OUR LADY or soLAca-ANNIzx 1 ATHLETIC CLUB-'31 May that smile like sunshine Dart into many 0. sinless heart. IT is rather difficult to state definitely what magnetism attracts us to Helen, but the answer lies in her individuality. While her scholastic tasks are done earnestly, we do not associate Helen with being a typical student, but we rather wish to remember her as extreme- ly witty. Her humor has a stimulating effect on her acquaintances. She ives evidence of a suppressed penchant for athletics and so we do not hesitate to say that she will become a successful physical culture directress. May success be yours, Helen! Thxrtyfthree
