Lampas 1929 Genevieve Frances Campbell And her dark eyes — how eloquent! Ask what they would, ' twas granted. Art Club ' 26; Athletic Association ' 26; Classical Club ' 28, ' 29; Drama Club ' 26; English Club ' 28, ' 29. In Gen we have the happy but unusual combination of beauty and brains. Her sparkling brown eyes, her glisten- ing white teeth, her wealth of gorgeous dark hair, — they are subjects for a poet ' s pen. Gen is blessed with a keen intel- lect that enables her to earn an A with minimum effort. She always has displayed keen intellectual power in her special field, English literature. All who come in contact with her admire her for those indefinable qualities which have earned for their happy possessor the title of good sport. She has amiability, charm, poise, chic, — in short, personality. Because everyone likes a person with a fund of interesting and original comments, Genevieve is always refreshing. Mary Agnes Consodine So well to know Her own, that what she wills to do or say Seems wisest, virtuousest, discreetest, best. Class President ' 29; Welfare Club (Third Vice-president ' 28); Athletic Association ' 28, ' 29; Drama Club ' 27, ' 28, ' 29; French Club ' 27, ' 28, ' 29 (Vice-president ' 28); Spanish Club The ideal of a senior class president is well fulfilled in the choice of the Class of 1929. With a scholarship record un- surpassed, with a power to lead, with a willingness to follow- when necessary, and with a sense of humor delightfully in- telligent, Mary has brought to us all the glory that is ours. We marvel to find that she always has time to participate in the many phases of college life. Her creative ability has ever been at the command of our college and of our class. Under Mary ' s wise and noble leadership, S IV has done great things. And as the Class of ' 29 goes loyally onward, it will carry on the ideals that its president has ever kept before it; they are but the magnified qualities of her own lovely character.

Lampas 1929 Anna Louise Brawley Her air, her manners, all admired; Courteous and gentle, tho ' retired. Class Treasurer ' 28; Welfare Club (Secretary ' 28, Advisory Board ' 26, ' 29); Athletic Association ' 27, ' 28, ' 29; Drama Club ' 27, ' 28, ' 29; English Club ' 29; Science Club ' 28, ' 29. All S IV is grateful to Anne, its only Chemistry Major, for the many willing and unheralded services she has done to make our class and club activities a success. High scholarship, together with an unusual interest in literature, account for the fact that Penelope knows. Glance at the clubs listed above! The long list only partially indicates Anne ' s versa- tility. These interests, which she is ever ready to follow, make Anne herself most interesting to anyone. Would that we had her limirless vocabulary ! What we like best, however, is Anne ' s sweet humility — her willingness that another ' s work should be praised, another ' s opinions accepted — while she still maintains an ideal of service that all might imitate. Harriette Marie Brazzelle Haste thee, Nymph, and bring with thee Jest and youthful Jollity. ' ' Vice-president of Class ' 29; Lampas Staff; Welfare Club (Vice-president ' 28, President ' 29); Drama Club ' 26, ' 27, ' 28, ' 29; English Club ' 28, ' 29; Geography Club ' 29- Personality plus seems to be the term that best describes Harriette. Her dynamic force of character has been evident to us in many ways during the four years we have known her. It is only natural that it should seek a dramatic outlet; and Harriette possesses histrionic talent to a remarkable degree, as her incomparable Touchstone in As You Like It and her memorable Mrs. Ruggles in Birds ' Christmas Carol bear wit- ness. Both her club activities and her daily class work are vitalized by this dramatic ability. Her delightful sense of humor and her true college spirit never fail to start the ball rolling or to keep it in motion.

Lampas 1929 Catherine Cecilia Curran A smooth and steadfast mind, Gentle thoughts and calm desires. Athletic Association ' 27; Camera Club ' 29; Drama Club ' 29. Catherine is the mathematical genius of S IV. Th e problem which she cannot solve is yet to be found. However, she is the most unpretentious one among us; she always allows others to have first chance, and then, when all have given up the problem, she modestly offers a correct, straightforward, and apparently simple solution. Thus, on many an occasion has Catherine saved the reputation of the class. In regard to her personality, all we need to say is that she is just as sweet and loving as she looks. She has been blessed with a good sense of humor and a remarkably friendly and even disposition. For one so well qualified in every way, we can foresee only success. Virginia Marjorie Dente And still they ga%ed, and still the wonder grew, That one small head could carry all she kneiv. Art Club ' 26, ' 27, ' 29; Athletic Association ' 26, ' 27, ' 28, ' 29; Camera Club ' 29; Drama Club ' 27; Science Club ' 28, ' 29. Virginia may be unassertive and quiet, but when the occasion arises, she displays innate ability and a deep fund of knowledge. She is one of the versatile members of our class, her interests extending from art to athletics, thence to mathe- matics, and even to tests and measurements. Her artistic posters keep the world informed of activities in our class, and we realize that our success has been due in no small part to her work. She has been an excellent student, and we feel sure that she will make a good little teacher, as one member of our faculty has predicted.
