You think that in the race which has been run, you have been the pursuer. Don't deceive yourself, Miss Graduate. It is Life which has caught up with you. For too many years, she has dogged your footsteps like a persistent shadow. N ow she can no longer be avoided. You cannot turn your back to her in the fu- ture, you must face her. There, we've said it, you must face the world, tomorrow, what graduation is go- ing to mean to you-you who are bravely meeting the fact that now you are a woman with a woman's problems to solve --a woman's life to lead. And the burden, the responsibilities which till now you have not been asked to carry, the oppres- sions which have laden your shadow- what of them? They are yours now, yours to be borne, yours to be utilized as anti-toxin against the dreaded failure. Yes, graduation will mean many things to you. It will open unknown vistas of opportunity. But these Cbe sure you real- ize itj, will not be sighted if you travel with a ticket of leisure. It means more striving, more endeavor, more sacrifices. It is an introduction to harder and sturdier, more strenuous efforts. It is merely the doorway to a school of responsible and de- manding tasks: of increasing and exacting qualifications. Contact with life to be conquered will not be fun but it is no cause for a faint heart. Don't let the world of reality defeat you. You are young, you need not fear, for as long as you sow your seeds wisely there is ffhope for a harvest. Ebb Tide Ebb tide-it's carrying us out to sea. How fast the sands of Memorial are fad- ing from our view, how swiftly we are be- ing borne from their vicinity. We have lain on Bishop's beach so long. Sometimes, it seemed that the wave which would catch us in its foamy teeth and bear us to a foreign port would never come. Sometimes, we did not wish it to. We wanted to lie where we were forever, like a fish washed up by the tide of life. Yes, there were moments when we yearned for the security and carefree happiness of school life. But there were other mo- ments, too -- moments when curiosity aroused within us a thirst for a quenching draught of adventure, moments when we desired to discover for ourselves whether or not the principles to which we were being schooled were practical, whether or not the plan of life we were adopting was feasible. Our world was one of certainty and we longed for one of uncertainty. We were sick of being ostracized from realism, we were too full of youth's singing courage. To discover, to Contact magic cities tinged with shadow and light, dreams and dis- aster, to meet success and failures, to be- come a part of the great knot of tangled lives which time alone unravels, to mingle with people of all types-rich and poor, important and unimportant, young and old -this was our desire. We longed to know how it would feel to be plunged into a whirlpool, at last we are going to find out. And we shall need all the balancing powers in our possession to keep our heads above water. We are going to need equilibrium, we are going to need common sense. It will take a good deal of effort, a good deal of fighting to keep our ideals from being dampened. It is hard to sail in an open boat and not get wet. Yet, it is equally true that Where there is a will, there is a way. More im- probable things than water-resistance have been proved possible. 5 f 4 I E 1 7 QW! Yes, tomorrow is upon us-impatient and demanding. Like a spoiled child. And yesterday-is but a bucket of ashes -ashes upon which there can be no look- ing back, ashes from which we can glean a faint glow of courage and then cast them forever to the winds of forgetfulness. Who can tell what the answer to the riddle of tomorrow will be? Who can tell into what unknown region the magnetic tide of on- rushing time will propel us? There is only left for us waiting-waiting with the cer- tainty deep in our hearts that there is no storm so violent that it can penetrate the slicker with which our Catholic education has provided us and that in any event if winter comes, can spring be far behind ? CQQQ .s Cgfzfluoay On every side a new path leads, Hands direct my choice And life's clear charts look new and shine, And some delight this will of mine. But is it Thine? 'Tis said in every woman's heart Sweet sacrifice is sown. ' She turns to cure all aches and ill- It does seem noble, God, but still, Is it Thy Will? Or shall I be a chosen soul And have Thee for my Spouse, A gift so pure, like unto none? Vain hopes, desires, I have but one- Thy Will be done. Repeated Erformance Atop a snow-covered mountain, a girl stands. Flushed with excitement and cold she gazes down at the twisting, winding trail that is suddenly enveloped in the black folds of night. Our skier pauses be- fore she gives a final tug to her ski strap and glides down that path into an unpre- dictable tomorrow that will yield a shining future. Poised at the summit she appears so young, so defenseless, so unprepared to tackle the curves of the perilous slope. Yet, with inexperienced youth as her one obstacle the blackness of night gives way to the grayness of morning, for our skier is not as unprepared as the first glance would have us believe. She turns to mo- mentarily view her past. Sheltered for four years from the ups and downs of life-fitted ffto the teeth with Catholic standards and ideals, counseled and ad- vised by a priceless faculty, equipped with wisdom from these sages, she is ready to swerve to and fro as she laughingly races the wind, the moon and the stars down the mountainside. With a quick laugh her reverie is shat- tered. She tightens her strap and glides down the bank, o'er the glistening snow and her words, thrust backward to those guid- ing stars, are caught by the wind and are echoed and re-echoed down the mountain- sfide- Thank you - God Bless You. lic AJ UB- srr ha co o A I alt Se ye ma ch ah 104 re' clt fe' m: at, no tir th Y4 SP Sc of so 35 gr ke mi in wa th ar de fii fr' va til m af hi hz or G S1 fu al ft Typical Memorialite ................ Sally Dowd JANUARY, 1942 LAUREL PAGE Q . . Through The Air With The Greatest OF Ease Four years ago, years that apparently flew like the wind, I set out on my first airplane trip. I didn't know whether I'd succeed or not, perhaps I would have to turn back. I was tto put it lightlyj petrified. But we did not turn back, and during the four-year course involved in journey- ing from the First to the Eighth term, the seventy-eight pilots explained to me, as well as to the other 323 passengers, that there was absolutely no cause for alarm- for we had one of the most famous Catho- lic ace-pilots, and we had boarded one of America's foremost Catholic planes-the Memorial I tried ever so hard to make myself as small as possible, so that the pilots might have more space in which to operate the controls. Ah! But I had forgotten the objective of the ship-co-operative work. And so, along with my fellow passengers, I did my part to keep the Memorial aloft. We hung suspended over the First and Second terms for some time, perhaps a year. I sat tight, no shrimp ever had as many wrinkles as I, my back assumed the characteristics of a closed concertina. Up ahead the cloud labeled f'Algebra Regentsn loomed jeeringly. I had an opportunity to review my entire past life as we neared the cloud-my good deeds, of which there were few, my misdeeds, of which there were many. I wondered if I would be missed at home should the Algebra cloud decide not to let me pass. Then one of the pilots noticed that the time-clock registered 1939. We began, therefore, to cruise above the Sophomore Year. It occurred to me to win the re- spect of the pilots by appearing confident. So I forced myself to peer over the side of the ship. The earth was dropping away so fast-proposition No. Z, proposition No. 38, proposition No. 51. f'Smile-keep a grin on your face! my unconscious self kept repeating. I couldn't have closed my mouth had I wanted to. Finally by bow- ing my head I shut my jaws. Ouch, there was Caesar playing again-whacking me in the face with my chin strap. The plane sped along faster and faster, and at last that everlasting pest, Julius, departed. We began our third year of flight. The Pitman family had a little frolic with their father, Isaac. They ad- vanced to the front of the plane-and every time one of those tiny shaded figures struck me, I shuddered. That was about all there appeared to be in the fiight for me . . . huddles, shrinks and shudders. Bump! A slight jar! Airpockets! We had dropped, or shall I say had risen, to our Seniority! The machine was intact. Good old machine! Nice old Memorial! Suddenly I relaxed. A feeling of delight- ful content surged through me. We were approaching Graduation. The absolute futility I had felt at the outset receded fContinued on page 19, column 21 If Catherine S chustef' Q,efQeiWe 'T il we meet again, Catherine Schuster, we will remember your casual air of in- formality, your lilting laughter that echoed and re-echoed so often through our Laurel Room 5 the rhythmic grace of your dance steps. We think there will be a strange emptiness here when you leave. It isn't only your spirit of generosity, your persist- ance or your genial hospitality-so perfect for putting 'fCubs at their ease. It's something much deeper than that-an in- defrnable, a lovable quality-we call it Shush. Carol Young, remember ye old year 1941, when on the tenth of December you hesitantly mounted the stairs leading to Memorial's stage and delivered a speech on your favorite topic, the LAUREL. Again, remember a dusk-filled auditorium and your rendition of the old and the new, the haunting refrainsg your hastily scribbled sketches, your magic poetry, your rambling chatter. Orator, pianist, artist, poetess, Carol-you leave us breathless. Mary Lynch, we consider you and 'fDriftwood,' synonymous-the very es- sence of expression and originality. Light laughter rippling from the fountain of youth enhanced your every movement with an effortless grace which we found de- lightful. You are the bundle of energy which proves that aged maxim Good things come in small packages. Genevieve Reilly, your spirited friendli- ness and constant merriment will provide you with some of life's most useful equip- ment. Practical' you are and generous- almost to a fault. Yours is a friendship that will always be valued, for it has im- parted to us, its willing recipients, a glow of beauty so warm, it will neither falter and a truthfulness so deep, it will last for- ever.

On June 8th, in our Senior year, Magda- lena Braun was called to the Court of God, as a representative of our class, leaving behind memories that will linger through the years. Her pleasant words, her cheer- ful smile, and her willing offers to assist, endeared her to all who had the unforget- table pleasure of her acquaintance. During this, our last Semester, Christ beckoned to Regina Smith and joyously she answered Him. We, who are left here, mourn her departure, we revere her mem- ory.

The French Orphans Listen my children and you shall hear, of the very sad plight of our four years. CW hat an attempt at sublime poetry! J We were the French group, 'ftres francais and very mistreated. We were the women without an official class, we were the paper strewn to the winds. We were dis- tributed so often we made ttThe Man Without a Countryl' look insignificant. In spite of everything, we survived and are here to relate our story. For French read- ers it is a Utriste histoiref' We may have had our rebellious mo- ments but we always had Kathryn Liddy to help us 'ftoe the mark. Then there were: Irene Dolan with her accuracy, and Eileen Costello with her rapid diction, Eileen Donohue, with her forgetfulness to remember, and Eileen McCarthy, the most interrogated member of 'fNotre Classef! Muriel Dorff with her honeyed phrases and Helen Litts with the voice made just for French songs, can never fade from memory. Though we loved them all, Kathleen Cassidy, a particular 'fjeune f1lle, received our deepest respect, for she gave to the French class a certain vitality, a definite zest. Her translations were a frolic for students, but good sports as were she and her companions, jean Carroll and Barbara Byrns-in the very best French manner, they grinned and bore it. So if we never should see romantic France with her magnificent cathedrals of Notre Dame, Chartres, Amiens and Rheims or the France of History with Les In- valides, le Louvre or the Eiffel Tower, we shall at least have had a glimpse of a great brave land, where even in the dust of con- querors she still stands proud and beauti- ful. France cannot die as long as her lan- guage and customs reign. Here in Amer- ica, forty-five young, American girls have indeed taken France to their hearts.

Mary holds the unique honor of having been elected President eight succes- sive terms. Her mag- netically gay personal- ity, her ready wit and her beautiful voice combine to make her Memorial's most popular Senior. Naturally you num- ber among your ac- quaintances Susanne Maccari. More than once her name has soared to the top of the honor roll. But out- side of being a con- scientious student, Susanne has a delight- fully charming manner that insures her future success. Few graduates pos- sess that easy, ef- fortless grace so very typical of our Alice Downey. She is the type person whom you like instinctively and instantly because of her obvious good na- ture. Hers is a warm friendliness that her classmates find quite irresistible. V lg Ti. A Margaret McCauley will, of course, always be associated in our minds with music and the Memorial orches- tra which was one of her outstanding inter- ests during high school. She is noted for her ability to co-operate and for her spirit of combined good humor and sweetness. Kathryn Liddy is an individual who has cer- tain charm-vivacious, yet calm, merry, yet serious, surprising, yet practical. Her school work has always been outstanding, as has her popularity among her classmates who cannot help but notice and appreciate her many fine qualities.

JANUARY,1942 LAUREL PAGE S Driftwood By Mary Lynch Let's think back four years and remem- ber. Surely you remember. You couldn't forget. 1938-1939 Remember you as a Freshman? You knew very little about popular music but you didn't know you didn't know. You had a permanent that was a little too short and a little too curly and you experi- mented with Tangee-Q'fBe yourself g be natural. J if Chartreuse was THE color that season. You hated it and wore it con- stantly and thought you looked wonder- ful. To conquer the Big Apple was your aim in life, you learned it just as every- one else gave it up. You always did your homework and told your friends you were going to fail simply everything and you got on the honor roll. 1939-1940 This was the year of Indian Summerv and Deep Purple. By this time you knew your orchestras and you idolized Tommy Dorsey. You had a page boy that looked as if it had taken hours to achieve and probably had. Elizabeth Arden's Sky Blue Pink was your method of cap- turing glamour. What's that? Why, of course, you were glamorous. YOU were a Sophomore, practically a Senior. You called yourself a Jitterbug and thought you were just crazy about the Lindy. Your family thought you were merely crazy. 1940-1941 You sang 'fFrenesi and Health, Wealth and Love. You liked Vaughn Monroe but Jimmy Dorsey jumped to first place on your hit parade. The pageboy was replaced by a long Howing bob and you used Irresistiblel' now. You saw Wuthering Heightsv and talked about it for days. You read Terry and the Pi- rates faithfully. You did the Conga so much you were saying one, two, three, kick, in your sleep. You loved the Conga, you loved Memorial, you loved living. 1941-1942 Senior year-most Wonderful of all but so short. You imitated Helen O'C0nnell to no one's satisfaction but your own, and you did the smoothest Peabody. You wore Don juan's newest color creation and braided your hair, after showing it to your friends you probably Hde-braided it-'fbut quick.

Before us stood a dusty, ragged stranger-a wee bit of manhood. Look- ing closer-we discerned not a stranger but foh, horrorsj our Lawrence. With tears streaming down our cheeks, we ush- ered him into our sanctum and pressed him with numerous questions. Wearily he waved us aside and slumped into a chair. It was then we unbelievingly discovered he was carrying a tray, and buried in inches of dust we saw a moulded apple, signs of pretzels and a soda bottle whose contents had evaporated Qremnants of our orders of October, 19415. Realizing that Lawrence would tell all' in good time Csince Law- rence has a way with himj, we watched our man of the LAUREL room while he slept 'round the clock. Then his eyelids ilickered and he sat upright, he stretched himself and after giving us his famous Lawrence smile, he began- DEAR LAURELITES-On that fateful afternoon in October as I was returning from market, I suddenly was possessed with a great desire to wander, to go be- yond the first floor, to discover the numer- ous unexplored niches in Memorial. Braz- enly I passed your door and trudged up the flights of stairs and found I was being drawn magnetically into a tiny room Ceven I had to stoop to enterj. As I passed the threshold of this room, the lock clicked behind and I realized I was imprisoned. My only consolation was a small crack in the door which proved my only source of information in the months to come. From this moment on, I sat with my ear glued to the door in the hope that I might receive some inkling of your progress. I heard about your gallant efforts to obtain Senior buttons and your securing of them, about your colorful hued crew hats, the early arrival of your rings, the Prepsters, play, fWhat a Life,' and the correspondence be- tween 'the F. A.' and the cast, Memorial's drama, 'Elizabeth the Queenfg of the Christmas tableaug the Senior assemblies, the award assembly and lastly the Com- mencement Issue. When I discovered how long I had been disarranged in that two by four space, how much I had missed-I beat my fists on the door until I was heard and -well, here I am, worn and tired-but eager to offer the class of ,42 my sincere congratulations!

Yes, the fighting is finished. And now that its 'fall quiet on the western front we can look back and see who were really the heroines during our four years, siege. We can reminisce and realize who the valiant in- dividuals were who not only performed the necessary tasks laid out for them but who also plunged themselves into the well of extra-curricular activities and emerged with recognition of distinguished service. Among the notables, Margaret Mc- Cauley and Catherine Walsh take up resi- dence not only for their commendable con- tributions to the orchestra, but also for having been at heart- true Memorial- ites. Josephine Barrett and Carol Young, two of the champion C. A. L. C. bookworms, did their bit to help discern golden litera- ture from that which merely glitters. Gloria Edwards, our own Math Presi- dent, takes her place among the numerical bright lights while Alice Ahearns and Anna Martin, two amiable students with a Ger- manic twist to their tongues, hold their own position in the hall of fame. Not to be outdone Mary McGee and Annunciata Balsamo rushed to the fore with the Italian Club banner in evidence, closely pursued by the French Club Cru- saders - Eileen Costello and Genevieve Reilly. Popular Betty Quinn and Marilyn Hoek strove nobly to uphold the standards of the Spanish Club-an effort facilitated by their inexhaustible capacity for energy and merriment. Heading Memorial's indispensable or- ganization, the M, U. A., were Jane Debus and Annamarie Collins, both worthy of commendation for their unselfish efforts during their Senior year. Much concerned with the welfare of the student body, and in return much consid- ered by the student body are Regina Mc- Grath and Margaret Murray, who headed the ranks of the S. S. L. Faithful is the word for Margaretha Oetheimer, Glee Club President, who has been a member of that musical group for eight terms. Vivacious is the word for Phyllis Vary, Vice-President with musical talent. The girls with the twinkling toes who lead our Sienese Secretarial Club are Vir- ginia Maclary and Bernadette Kelly, two of our dancingest Seniors. These are-these were our leaders. What will the future hold for them? Over what roads will it carry them? There is only left for us the extension to them of our hope that their zeal for activity may never falter and that there will always be emblazoned on their hearts the red badge of courage. ing to Webster, but in Memorial they are one and the same!

It's true you are stepping forth into a cha- otic world of misfits and mishaps but they should only act as incentives to have you unfurl Christ's fiag over all America. Why, you're fully equipped and staunchly fortified to subdue the world to bring souls to God because you're right, and to mis- quote a much-quoted axiom-Hright makes might?

You ' : X are invited to ' 'fir V, come with us and - - 7 observe our grad- uates as they are likely to appear some years hence. The sound of music reaches our ears and suddenly we behold an orchestra led by Jean Carroll. Anna Louise Martin is play- ing the piano while Florence Geraghty lis- tens attentively. Well! Times have changed since those days in Memorial when Flor- ence thrilled only to the 'fmusic of the masters. Enter the vocalist: Carolyn Bub, of course, her voice as delightful as ever. Our scene now shifts to the hospital where We spy nurse Anne Maguire, pleas- ant as always, who informs us that Anita Spence has just bought seven new Kerry Blues, one for each day of the week. Catherine Lundrigan, supervisor of nurses already, is sitting quietly C?j at a desk reading a magazine. Peering over her shoulder, we see that the story has been written by Carmel Fullam and illustrated by Joan Mary Quinn, Jon Whitcomb's successor. She turns the page to the critic's notices Cfavorable, of coursej of Mary Lynch's latest literary achievement -a play no less. And speaking of the theater, Catherine Aspland is now playing opposite Maurice Evans. I wonder if she still remembers how many to-morrows crept in that 'fpetty pace in Memorial. What odor reaches our nostrils? FOOD. Mary Nosser and Sally Waters are still practicing the art of cooking and improv- ing with age Cwe hopej. Betty Quinn ap- pears dressed as an air hostess. With her are Carmella Rapisarda and Anne Will- man, those perennial Dodger fans. Marie Alto and Dolores Trainor are now well installed in secretarial positions. Each day they interview draftees-dull work, of course, but then one must make such sacrifices for one's career. Genevieve Reilly profited from her ex- perience as LAUREL Managing Editor.

Forward Pass Those two little words can mean but one thing when Memorial speaks. You've guessed it-they're meant to serve as an introduction to an expose of our cafeteria Ushenanigansf' Mr. Webster would have us believe that a cafeteria is a restaurant where the pa- trons serve themselves-mere folly, this. Four years of digestable devourings in the confines of Memorial's lunch room have provided us with ample cause to write our own definition of cafeteria Not that we'd dare attempt to parallel our learnings with even a smattering of Mr. N. W.'s as- semblage of knowledge - perish the thought! But we would like to dissertate on the things that inspired our private in- terpretation of cafeteria and how we all have really lived, not merely existed, dur- ing that cherished lunch period for nigh on to four years. As Methusaleh peeks nonchalantly over our shoulder, we wonder how dusty his recollections are of . . . Gloria Fish, of the shimmering tresses, who used to wish so hard that she could stop the clock, that she might finish the remaining delicacies of her enormous lunches. But times have changed, as have lunches-and waistlines. And breathes there a Memorialite who hasn't joined in the chorus of Happy Birthday when Muriel Dorff, Mary Mc- Cormack and Company gathered to gar- ner one of their dozens of friends with fe- licitations and song during the lunch pe- riod? ' In the midst of retrospecting, We could appreciate Peggy Forestys smooth inter- pretation of Wim, or of anything set to music, 'cause Peggy always charmed with her lilting rhythms. And her most ardent listeners of late have been Alice Murphy and Betty Lawson, who have had reason, and then some, to join in the chorus of 'fThis Love of Mine? Meandering farther back through dreamsville, shadows of the past cast an outline familiar with the figure of Betty McGrade devouring that pickle she prized so highly. And the sound that now dis- turbs these thoughts might be the pop,' as Mary O'Gara dutifully sets to open soda bottles for ever patient students. This noise breaks in on our retrospectiong all that remains, Memorial, is for us to say: Ulf we could have but a wish or two Let us remember these things of youf' IVIARIE INIARSHALL, Room 201, JANE STEIGERVVALD, Room 309.

It's the little things that you remember -such things as these magic memories: Carmella Rapisarda, ever upholding our famous Brooklyn Dodgers, Doris Vor- back, bemoaning the extra pounds. Betty Porter and Marcella Salamone-the ideal friendship, beautiful cardigans an eternal remembrance of Mary Malzone, Marcella Gall's conscientious industry prompting us to work, Irene Cliffordis continuous rush, making each day a busy one-she kept us breathless-yet content. Lorraine Fa- chet's beautiful voice-she lifted us upon the wings of melody to new heights of ap- preciation, Gloria Edwards' gleaming burnished hair-prompted us to receive a love and gratefulness for God's gifts to us. Regina Cunningham's struggles with Chemistry-each test, followed by her own inimitable reactions will endear her to our memory. Gladys Wilson's lively hands signified the warm clasp of friendship with which she greeted each classmate. Gloria Fish's shining dark tresses and sparkling smile-she warmed us with her loyalty and humor. Virginia Kenny's visits to the li- brary-her taste for books gave us prece- dent for teasing and admiration. Dorothy Donogheyls twinkling eyes-she made us believe that the eyes are truly the f'Mir- rors of the soul. Virginia Felgner's rosy dreams and wishful thinking-she directed our thoughts to the future with new hope and anticipation. Alice Ahrenls charming, classic braids-through her we recaptured forgotten glimpses of perfect simplicity. Jean Weber's skill with the knitting needles -our first hint of aged contentment blend- ing smoothly with youthful effervescence. Esther Fitzsimmon's breathless interpreta- tion of the 'fLindy --she embodied in us a true and lasting rhythm. Dolores Hayes' playing the piano, her agile hands gracefully sweeping the keyboard filled us with delight at the richness of musical tal- ent. Carolyn Bub's dream of her Pal Joey -she formed the final vital picture that is a strong link in the chain of high school memories. Yes, these are little details we shall never forget. And it won't be hard to recall those Familiar Scenes . . . Mary Rogers breezily signaling the sec- retary of her presence in Helen Cunning- hamls seat, Kathleen McGrath calmly dis- placing a noisy clamor with peace and order, Helen Mosleh putting the final touches to an already perfect hair-dog Jo- sephine Barrett strolling dreamilv into the room, Maria Cox just beating the hell to be in time for prayers, Anne Maguire worrying about those cancer pads, l -yt Walsh with her sweet calm smih: Ma , Slater quietly wa, unff al Saying little, jo Oils , bring Mg forth gales of laughter -. - ' 'tiling humor. The quiet gentility ,of M Dowd, coupled with the warm vivacity i Catherine Hirsch form a flattering com- bination. Betty Lawson epitomizes per- fection in athletic grace. Alice lX.urphy with her charming manner excels in her Own type of personality. Justine Jones never fails to be serenely helpful, and friendly. More Pen Pictures: Catherine Dailey running to catch the Franklin Avenue Express every morning so that she can wave to Vinney. 'flt came, it came. This is little Margie's famous and oft repeated quotation concerning those letters from Jersey. Kay Breene is still talking about the Princeton-Navy game. In among the Brooklyn Prep root- ers we find Anna Brennan wearing a red corduroy suit and blissfully waving a St. Iohn's banner Cas you may well imagine she was nearly killedj. Peggy Cashin is strictly Brooklyn Prep conscious, too. Could it be that her friend is a member of the basketball team? Who Ever Suspected That Catherine Lundrigan could be the victim of a nickname like f'Angell'? That Catherine Schuster is called Petty', by her very best friends? That Phyllis Varyls delightful C?j nick- name is Flea',? Do we hear weeping and gnashing of teeth as a result of these disclosures? Never mind, because This Is Only the Beginning: Marie Marshall displays a growing ap- preciation of Lehigh , Ruth Fagan for 'LCornell g Margaret Hannon for Ford- hamf' We wonder why! Dorothy Don- oughyls favorite pastime is walking. Well-Uvariety is the spice of life. Or so they say! Margaret Moron is one of our most agreeable graduates, Claire Maguire num- bers among the most helpful, Eleanor Mayer among the sweetest, Mary Higgens among the most poised. Caroline Arndt is so quiet you might forget her except that when she is needed she is always there. And that is what counts. Mary McGee tells us excitedly about her new dress-red and white and glam- orous. f'And thereby hangs a tale.

Mary Genevartfs Rendezvous in Rio ANDTHEIQ WAY . . I shall say something different. Not once will I utter: We, the Class of l4Z, . . . ready to venture forth on life's highway . . . leaving behind four years of glorious memories .... H Leave that to the poets with their beautiful gift of making com- monplace, everyday things seem new and wonderful. I should only be able to re- peat the same old things in the same old way. But what phase of graduation has not already been portrayed? I shall not sug- gest the time-worn thought that we are leaving a life we have grown to know and love. Not mine is the task to attempt an accurate description of the fears and uncertainties of what lies before us. This is something too profound for even the poet soul. Some thoughts are imbedded so deeply in mortal hearts that they are in- visible to the most discerning eye, impos- sible for the most eloquent tongue. Gradu- ation, you see, inspires a wealth of varied impressions. For one person it may be sad as the sun withdrawing with painful slowness its outflung radiance from the sky, bringing to an end something brief and lovely. For another it is as happy as the dawn of a new day of sunshine and light. To you it could represent release from some binding force, to another, per- haps, it is the continuation of a crushing mission without guidance or aid. I cannot guess what is in your heart nor do you know what lies in mine. You could not tell me if you wanted to, I could not tell you if I tried. This is the reason why any attempt at originality will surely fail: because the things that really matter simply cannot be expressed. Despite this, graduation is now assuming momentous importance to us, . . . the class of '42 . . . ready to venture forth on Zife's highway . . . not leaving, but beginning-education ends only with life. L transported her listeners South of the Border ? When Day is Done-You'll remember that Agnes Kenna could spell out art on skates, Connie George for her lapel in- signia and its historic background, Ruth Gabriel for her smile, her laugh, herself, Anna DiMizio for her voice and her twink- ling brown eyes, Carol Young for her po- etry reading-a hush and a sigh! Just Think: Of what would be the result if it were possible to merge: The hands of Katherine Hughes: the complexion of Marjorie Mc- Entee, the eyes of Maureen Wainman, the hair of Barbara Byrnes: the smile of Kitty Kelly, the personality of Betty Quinn. Of course it's an impossibility. But we can dream can't we? 'fGuard these dreams so carefully, That they will not depart. Keep your golden memories Hidden in your heart.

The vessels waited tense, alert for sailing, And proudly flaunted white sails in the breeze. And some were gay and eagerg some reluctantg The sails unfurled and each from out the harbor And some were beautiful and strong and freeg Directed then a steady course that morn. And some ever kept their silent eyes before them- And each goes out alone across the darkness Intent upon the port beyond the sea. To meet again beyond the distant dawn. CAROL YoUNc, '42
