V. SPECIAL Elizabeth Black — Liz, who came to Branksome from Belleville, is Five Special ' s class presiderrt, and a sub-prefect. She is noted at Sherb for her generosity and fo ' - her love of song. Her plans include further training in Home Economics, and she hopes to make Detroit her place of residence. Being a born planner, we ' re sure she ' ll manage to achieve both goals. Ann Magee — This petite miss came to Branksome from Lawrence Park Collegiate. She has a very determined eye on nursing; we preoict that her quiet efficiency and high marks will insure her a successful career as a dentist ' s assistant. Jane Henderson — Jane is completing her final year at Branksome as the secretary-treasurer of Five Special. She collected Lent money from her class and carried off honours for reaching the goal first. Jane hopes to become a nurse, and we feel that her patients will be in good care. Anne McLaren — Anne, who comes from Van- couver, wants to know where all our winter weather went. Our answer? Why, to Vancouver, of course! Anne loves all sports — but from the spectator ' s bench. And in the future we think you ' ll find her in nurse ' s training at the Van- couver General. Peggy Seagram — I just can ' t is cheerful Peggy ' s favourite expression. Nothing is ever too quiet with Peg around; she adds life and laughter wherever she goes. The Banff School of Fine Arts is Peggy ' s destination this summer, and she plans to enter the Ontario College of Art in the Fall. Joan Streatfield — Joan is V Special ' s Library Representative. Her warm smile and charming dimples have fascinated all her classmates. An interior decorating course in New York is her next project — and we v.ish her every success. Elizabeth Wilkinson — Beth made quite a name for herself as a handicrafts director at Bolton last summer. This year, at Branksome she carries the responsibilities of a sub-prefect, library assistant and clan scorer. Every day, faithful Beth files her fines; with her perseverance, she will be very successful wherever she goes. Janet White — Jan loves both badminton and music, but her real interest lies in the V est, and she hopes to make a trip to Calgary very soon. After that she plans to enroll in an Art College. Lots of luck, Jan, and we hope you ' ll achieve both ambitions. — Goodbye, Branksome! We ' ll always remember you — hope you can carry on without us !

Joan is known as Grannie to her ballet teacher; our Gran is also interested in dramatics, and plans to take a drama course in New York next year. Magarct MacPherson— In the sports line.

Eloise is ambitiously planning to enter the business world. With her ability, she should have a very successful career.

We wish Mary Lou the best of luck, always. Kathryn Putman— Kathy, who comes from Pres- cott, is a member of Sherb ' s Big Four.

Oh. Sliver! Margaret Sommacal — This gal from St. Clemei ' ts boasts a head of rich auburn locks, and an interest in good music. At Sherb, Marg un- selfishly supplies the boarders with delicacies.

Margaret Taylor — Bonnie is a former student at Parkdale Collegiate. At Branksome, she is famous for her numerous telephone calls from home, and for her long, dark hair. Boarding at Sherbourne certainly doesn ' t provide many djll moments, and Bonnie is right in there with the best of them. Her special interests lie in riding and dancing. Our sincere wishes for her success. Diane Tiller — Di, who comes from Guelph, is one of the lucky ones who sits in on the Big Four. Her favourite exclamation is, Who ' s going to the ' Queen ' s ' after school ' Di is V Commercial ' s answer to the perfect secretary. She plans to become a shorthand reporter in the future. Barbara Wright — Barb has a passion for good sport matches — be it major league hockey or a school tennis tournament. At Branksome she is the president of V Commercial, and has won all her classmates with her twinkling eyes and hearty laughter.
