PAUL DAVID GAYLE One of the most individualistic natures of the senior class belongs to Paul Gayle. Never a willing conformist. Paul regards ony attempts to change his views with a dry, I don't believe this I Underlying ony sarcasm or ridicule, however, are both charm and intelligence, which he confidently displays whenever the mood strikes him. Paul likes Friday nights, debate trips, conservatism. Mad Magazine, and tall women, not necessarily in that order. He dislikes chaos, physical exercise, and mornings thot begin before 1 P.M.

MINDY GRUENBAUM Mindy is a girl who has, is, and does everything. Intelligent, vibrant, and worm just begin to describe her. In addition to her outstanding personality she plays the piano, sings in chorus, and sews. Mindy values sincere people highly and just loves Fords ond pumpernickel bread. Phonies simply don't rote, and she despises Sundays and writing term papers on undefined subjects. Her goal is to get out of Beacon, and in our opinion it will be Beacon's loss.
