ANNA VERUNICA HIRO sr. Jos1zPH, YORKVILLE ATHLETIC CLUB'-'30, '31 A sweet heartlifting cheerfulness Like springftime of the year, A SPARKLING personality, with a remark' able tendency toward drollery has made Anna a favorite among her classmates. ' Bubbling over with vitality, Anna clearly shows that she is a firm advocate of school spirit. Surely you must have often seen her rushing at a rapid pace through the corridors on an errand pertaining to the Welfare of all. Her sporting nature and her enthusiastic support of everything she favors, have won for her the love and admiration of her associates. For Anna, we predict success and the happif ness that she so willingly extends to others. FRIDA TERESA HOFSTETTER MOST HOLY RBDEEMER VICE'PRESIDBNT-130 Graceful and useful all she does Blessing and blest wl1e're'e1' she goes. GOLDEN hair and soft, expressive eyes are apt to prejudice one where Freda is conf cerned. Yet although she is slim and graceful, her charming appearance is not her only asset. Freda's unusual amount of common sense is most noticeable. Seldom ruffled-she is quiet yet funfloving, undemonstrative yet affecf tionate. She presents a picture of fragile lovelif ness, yet she is a young woman of decided opinions and determination. Her inclinations tend toward business. Her practicability and precision will insure her ad' vancement in that element so admirably suited to her. Fcrrty-seven

Forty-six MARGARET MARY HICKEY ST. IcNATIus LOYOLA SECRETARY-'28 TREASURER-'29 ATHLETIC CLUB-'29, '30, '31 Her friendship, once determined, never swerves, Weighs 'ere it trusts, but weighs not 'ere it serves. CLEAR thinking, confident and ambitious, Margaret is the possessor of that rare gift of forming and cherishing friendships. An excellent athlete, especially adept at basketball and baseball, she has helped to hold aloft Cathedral's standards. Truly representative of a worthy Memorialite, she has shown interest and enthusiasm in every school activity, and social events have found in her a steady sup' porter. Margaret's is a noble ambition-that of becoming a nurse, and we, who know her, are sure that with her invincible spirit and ability, she will spend her life well in noble social SC I'V1CC .

YOU know her, don't you? She is the girl with the rosy cheeks and wide inquiring eyes who always seems to be doing more than she can, yet who always accomplishes what she attempts. As captain of our Varsity, she has led her team through fair and stormy weather to honest victory or noble defeat. She thinks beautiful thoughts, dreams lofty dreams, and plans brilliant exploits. There is none other like her-none other so naive, so kind, so capable of discerning the right thing. Of course you know our Anne! She has proved, while among us, that sh ecan attain the highest peak of achievement. May Excelsior, then, ever be her motto.

To those who know thee, Know, all words are faint. XX IE are loath to bid Adieu to Margaret whose charming and distinctive per' sonality has endeared her to us all, describing whom mere words are truly inf adequate. The possessor of infinite Margaret retains a nonchalant and imperturbf able nature, capable of attacking any situation and emerging victorious with an unrullled exterior. As an active member of the Art clu garet has combined originality with talent and has produced unique results.

WE penetrate a mask of seriousness and find a smile, and as we realize that that serious smile is about to leave us, a tear of reluctant sorrow falls into our cup of joy. The talents of Constance lie mainly in musical fields, and as first violinist in our orchestra, she has often regaled us with en' trancing compositions. Although Connie's music is her chief interest, her studies have never suffered because of it, and her sociability soars high above the level of ordinary friendliness. Now, as we part, we propose a toast to this sister Cathedralite: May the name of her whose memory shall ever be entwined with music reecho in the hearts of the class of '31, and lead them to Wish that she may prosper in the calling that allures her. and in poise, b, Mar' lligence, in the race.
