ELIZABETH BRINE Newman Club, Hobby Club, Women ' s Athletic Association Betty, the short member of the Brine-Hill combination, has lovely dark-blonde hair and eyes that crinkle when she talks or laughs. An infectious smile breaking into a contagious giggle is an indication of her jolly personality. Brisk in action and abrupt in speech — she is keen and spirited. Familiar to the geog and math classes is her long drawn-out w-e-l-l as she frantically formulates the answer to an unexpected question. Witty comments and snappy comebacks provide mutual enjoyment for Betty and the South Door Gang. J. RAYMOND BURNETT Campus Comment, Topics of the Day Club, Men ' s Club Ray is Bridgewater ' s representative in the service who trots into the navy yard every Wednesday night. For four years he has been noted for his Crysto-mints and cuts , amassing an all time high in the total of each. His actions fail to hide his ability, though, for a special report or a recitation will reveal an analytical mind and a twelve cylinder vocabulary. Flipdo ' s car and shirts add to the color of our class. HELEN CAMPBELL Class Representative, W. A. A. Completely self-assured, Helen knows what ' s what and as the Dorothy Dix of the class, what to do about it. Keen and penetrating, she uses her wit both for amusement and as a weapon. Helen has definite opinions and expresses them pungently, punctuating her remarks with little emphatic gestures. Always late for class, she is nevertheless usually on time when it comes to chauffeuring her many and willing passengers. The little Dutch Maid ' s accounts of life at Falmouth make it an exciting place. JUDITH CARLSON Literary Editor of Alpha, Library Club, Topics of the Day Club Tall, capable and Swedish, Judy is ready to argue dogmatically and intelligently on any and every subject, any and every hour. It is then that one gets a glimpse of her vast store of information ac- quired from many a library shelf and current magazine. She lends her talent to the production of a better Alpha and a more interesting Campus Comment. This out-of-the-ordinary girl relaxes in just as different a way showing moments of being a Russian ballerina, a Jenny Lind or just a plain paradox. LA V ( ' ■ Page twenty-one '
