What sort of char- acter is Christopher amid paperbacks and ski wax, Council min- utes and his daily hot cup of tea? Christo- pher's character can- not be discerned by his immediate involve- ments. Chris is evolving into a gentleman. He has no patience for folly or small talk. He is al- ways a front-line man who often appears to follow rather t h a n lead, but somehow al- ways emerges to score a goal in a game, or provide an ingenious interpretation in a dis- cussion. His complacency is deceiving, a l t h o ugh his views are con- tained in his discreet and diplomatic man- ners, he is the first to defend his position and the last to abandon his ideals. A deep laugh or a swat on the head with a rolled newspaper in- dicates Christopher's amusement with silli- ness. Although his con- servative disposition takes over in most in- stances, and he is usu- ally the one to slacken the reins on foolishness at Barlow, his oFf-cam- pus attitudes assume a boyish enthusiasm for the absurd. christopher iames haig

Outwardly, she maintains an almost stoic poise, her mo- ments of humor are frequent and superb whether she's playing with pantomime or toying with her abun- dance of superior wit. She very effectively employs this sense of humor to ward off problems. Glenna has a sense of loyalty that will override any s o c i a l frown or even personal discontent. Although disillusioned about a person, if he or she needs her company, Glenna, regardless of the personal cost, will sacrifice her time and conversation for them. S h e confines h e r modes of expression to tacit mediums, because Glenna's essential de- sire is to be free to dis- cover herself before she must submit to others.

'muy iulia ann shively Who is that little girl skipping barefoot through dandelions or snowdrifts? lt's Julie. Julie's spirits are portrayed in her every action and word, She's easily ruffled to tears and more easily con- duced to uncontroll- able laughter. Unhar- nessed sentiments sel- dom keep us curious as to her mood. She is supplied with an abun- dance of D.H. Law- rence lines, E.E. Cum- mings kisses, and pieces of Lewis Carroll nonsense. These traits seldom infringe u p o n her work, though. Julie is a dedicated student, and although you may find her momentarily submerged in a disar- ray of details in the early morning hours, she always reasons with clear perspective. Julie has many peeves and passions. She adores clean sheets and cannot endure sorrelberries.
