Seniors JANE PIXLEY HEFFER 1090 Wegmen Road Rochester, New York Liberal Arts “Heff” is our president of the Athletic Association and an interested Delta Psi. Y. W. C. A. and the Acorn Staff are among her other activities. Basketball and Jane go together like ham and eggs. If you think you hear a bird, it isn’t really; it’s merely Heff whistling. Only time she opens her mouth is when she eats. “Did you say Cornell?” Heff’s pet peeve is being tickled— “Oh, how I hate it!” VIRGINIA ANN HOLLAND 204 South Fourth Street Maywood, Illinois Liberal Arts “Oh, how I love to study!” “Gini” is president of the “Y.” “Has anyone got something to eat?” She has the unusual ability of being able to keep a straight face when she wants to laugh. Another talent that Gini possesses is the ability just to talk and talk. Gini is a Delta Psi and, even though you don’t see her on stage, she always has something to do with each production. She is on the varsity hockey team. Her major gripe is gossip that she doesn’t know about. { 20 }■

Seniors HELENE STAPLETON GUMPEL 335 Rushmore Avenue Mamaroneck, New York Liberal Arts Helene is secretary for the Senior Class, and we all thank her for writing the class history for us. She is on the A. A. Board, a dining room hostess, and the speedy center of the varsity hockey team. Oh, that lilting voice over the loud speaker. As a rule she can be found with her roommate, Dee. What hurts her most is having to get out of bed and dressed for a nine o’clock class while Dee sleeps. MARY ANNE HANNA “Open Hearth” Lewistown, Pennsylvania Physical Education Our most beautiful lass takes part in such activities as the A. A. and the Dolphin Club. She is a Delta Psi and the vice president of the Senior Class. Mary Anne is very anxious to gain some advanced education at Penn State next year. Mary Anne, make like Jimmy Durante for us. If you ever want to find Mary Anne, just listen for her hearty laugh. Mary Anne is a wonderful girl, and we’re all so proud that she is our May Queen. 19 }

Seniors BARBARA JEANETTE KINLAW St. Pauls, North Carolina Liberal Arts “Jeanne” is an active Studio Theater member and is on the recreation committee of the Y. W. C. A. Jeanne proves that good things come in small packages. When she talks about Hennie, she’s bound to say, “But he’s so b-i-g!” Lucky girl, she manages to get home quite often. Her most oft-quoted request is, “Sit on the other side.” “Hey, Wowaine, ain’t you writ nothin’ yet?” Jeanne’s greatest dislike is blind dates. RITA ELON LANIGAN 41-08 42c! Street Sunnyside, Long Island, New York Liberal Arts Rita, our strongest advocate of the “new look,” is secretary of the Y. W. C. A., editor of this Acorn, member of the House Council and Newman Club, co¬ editor of the alumnae newspaper, and an ardent Delta Psi. Won’t somebo dy tell her the meaning of the word sleep? Rita loves English literature, all kinds of music, and Notre Dame. What she doesn’t like is rushing and then waiting. She can be located in the dining room along with Sarah, Jeanne, and Lorraine long after everyone else has left. Looking for food? Her miniature is the prized possession and a sign that she’ll soon be sitting with her own children. 21 jo
