Carmel Jeanne Byrne The great sociologist! Witii a twinicle in iier eye Carmel will tell you that her interest in the Arena and the skill of Mr. X is research for a book called Entertainment and the American Public. It should be revolutionary, for we are all well acquainted with her humorous outlook on even the most serious of subjects. This book will probably be illustrated with clever sketches, for she is actually a talented artist. Many of our Lampas drawings are adequate proof of her artistic ability. She will bring to her progressive classroom an understanding and warm-hearted dis- position. Electives: Art and English Art Club; Music Club; Literary Club; Debating Club; Athletic Association; Art Editor of the Lampas Mary Claire Collins Claire, as most of us call her, is a friendly classmate. Her charming manner has won the hearts and the admiration of all at the College. Her co-operative spirit on all occasions has given her the reputation of a loyal, dependable worker.

Pauline Barlas In her modest and unassuming fashion, PauHne has brought to us much pleasure by her skill at the key- board. Music at its best provides an interest which she willingly shares with others. Firm ambition and diligent spirit are the forces behind her careful study. Who can tell what distant goals she may reach as a reward for her conscientious work? A perfectionist in all her ways, our quiet Polly has won a special place in our hearts. Elective: Music Music Club; Literary Club; Athletic Association; Welfare Club (Co-Chairman of the Thanksgiving Basket Committee) Kala Barbara Brandes The Senior Class put its trust in Kala ' s aptitude for higher Math when it handed her the Lampas bank- books. In her careful way she proved that we had not misjudged her abilities. But her talents lay in many fields. She could deliver a marvelous speech in the hall, and even make her quiet voice heard amid the locker-room din. Her sewing and handwork are dainty and faultless. A perfectionist in every detail is our charming and gracious Kala.

Katharine Honora Comerford When we recall Kay in years to come, we shall think of a capable, cheerful, and self-effacing friend. There is an undefinable buoyancy about her whicTi makes her enthusiasm for sports seem very natural. A quick serve in tennis, an impossible shot in basketball, or a difficult slalom down Cranmore Mountain, — in these Kay excels. For you, our sincere wish is that your path of lite may be a path of success. Electives: Economics, Art, and English Chairman ot the Christn Literary Club Assembly ' 48; Athletic Association; Anne Marie Connolly Dark, petite Anne, with her flair for fashionable dress, is one of our more quiet members. A model of neatness, she wears her clothes with an air of dis- tinction. Her quiet dignity is enhanced by a subtle touch of humor. The handkerchief counter in New England ' s Largest Store benefits by her charm which makes buying a handkerchief a joy. No matter how busy her day at school or store, she is always ready for an evening ' s dancing. If you wish to see Anne ' s eyes sparkle, just mention that blond with a crew haircut.
