CLASSES MABEL HELENE LARAMEE 45 Park Street, Palmer. Orchestra 1, 2, 3, 4. Glee Club 1, 2, 3, 4. Choir 1. French Club 1, 2, 3, 4. Dormitory Council 2, 3, 4. President of Normal Hall 4. Large was her bounty; and her soul sincere. Tout bien ou rien must constitute Mabel ' s philosophy of life, for she carries her entire personality into whatever activity she undertakes. Appreciated? Yes! Why? For her conscientious efforts in French Club and her tactful sym- pathy as Mother Confessor of Normal Hall. ELIZABETH LAWRENCE 121 Chickatabot Road, Quincy. Student Coun- cil 1, 4, Pres. 4. W. A. A. 1, 2, 3, 4, Pres. 3. Bas- ketball 1, 4. Hockey 1, 2, 3, 4. Baseball 1, 2, 3, 4. Life Saving 1. Glee Club 1, 2, 3, 4. Choir 1, 4. Scouts 2. Class Secretary 2. A perfect woman, nobly planned To warm, to comfort and command. Here is one whose efficiency and many accomplishments have never changed her. Freshman and senior alike feel that all-encompassing sense of charm and dignity, those same qualities which preserve the traditional standard of student government at Bridgewater. ANNA KATHERINE LEARY 154 Hanover Street, Fall River. W. A. A. 1, 2, 3, 4, Hockey 1, 4. Orchestra 1, 2, 3, 4. Scouts 1, 2. Topics of the Day Club 4. There is no joy but calm. Could you picture lovable Mother Cary standing with a violin bow in her hand, tapping her foot when in and out of tune with the world? That ' s Anna — her heart as wide as her smile and as true as those blue orbs of hers which never could stop at a mildly surprised look. One big vote for a top ' o the mornin ' personality. 29

1933 ALPHA MARIE ELIZABETH KELLY A. B., Emanuel College 3 Newbury Street, Roslindale. Persuasion tips her tongue whene ' er she talks. Would you be revolutionized in all your pet prejudices? Then pause in your travel to hear those arguments as she summons them into battle array; follow her as she builds up ramparts about them out of the material which a life of historical reading offers. She will not be carried along by the common current, but will courageously take her place as a lover of wisdom and a defender of truth. STELLA HELENA KRUPKA 7 Fitch Terrace, Randolph. W. A. A. 1, 2, 3, 4. Hockey 1, 2, 3, 4, Baseball 1, 2, 3, 4, Tennis 3, Track 1, 2, 3, Basketball 1, 2, 4. Glee Club 2, 3, 4. Hobby Club 3, 4, Sec. 3, Pres. 4. Day Stu- dent Council 4. ' Tis thy dream to make the rainbow sing, To make a stone leap to the sky. Found! The secret of success! — What? Love of people, a sunny disposition, and varied interests. — In whom? Stella — Where? On any team in sports, in the art rooms, or at the most congenial spot in the commuters ' room. — When? Any- time . . Continuous office hours to remedy all ailments. GERTRUDE LOUISE LAIRD West Barnstable. Campus Comment 1, 2, 3, 4, Editor 3, 4. Normal Offering 2. French Club 1, 2. W. A. A. 1, 2. With irony in look Poetry peeps into my heart. Words are indeed only the skin of thought when de- scribing Gertrude. They seem such futile weapons with which to pierce that coat of reserve that so sheathes the friendliness and sincerity beneath it. Her common sense bears fruit in the capable management of Campus Comment. But her uncommon sense — ah! therein lie her fascination and subtlety. 28

1933 ALPHA MARY CECILIA LEWIS 484 Commercial Street, Provincetown. W. A. A. 1, 2, 3. Hobby Club 3. Garden Club 1, 2, 3, 4. And all I ask is a tall ship And a star to steer her by. Mary is thoroughly interested in the theatre — especially in the new American drama portrayed by Eugene O ' Neil. She has a true love for sand dunes, ships, and swimming. But oh, how Mary does dislike those sarcastic proctors who are always shushing people. MILDRED KIDDER M acDONALD 27 Beacon Street, Gloucester. W. A. A. 1, 2, 3. Culture Fund Committee 3, 4. Hobby Club 3, 4. Pres. of Woodward Hall 4. Vice-Pres. of Dormi- tory Council 4. Assistant Stage Manager of Dramatic Club 3. Stage Manager 4. Her presence lends its warmth and health To all who come before it. Those who have seen only the dignity of Woodward Hall ' s president, have missed much of — Mildred. Only those who really know her can appreciate the president submerged by the friend. DORIS VIVIAN MacGINNIS 412 Maple Street, Marlboro. Glee Club 2, 3, 4. Choir 2, 3, 4. W. A. A. 1, 2, 3, 4, W. A. A. Board 4, Hockey 1, 2, 3, 4, Basketball 1, 2, 3, 4, Baseball 1, 2, 3, 4, Soccer 3, 4. Archery 2, 3. I ' m freedom ' s happy bond-slave. Where would our class teams be without Dot, who is ever ready for any and all games? How she does shoot those baskets! In her social, studious, and athletic life at B. T. C. we find her a never-failing sport. Even such a jolly person has aversions. Just mention quiet hour rules in the dorm to learn Dot ' s pet thorn in the flesh. 30
