1927 CLASS BOOK DOROTHEA BOIT GIERASCH Address-130 Longwood Avenue, Brookline, Mass. TID Entered, 1918 Born, May 10, 1910 Dark with excessive bright. -Milton. A situation would never upset her. Indeed, her independence, which fits her for traveling, took her to Europe, away from us for almost a year, when she should have been a member of om' second class. Of course the result abroad was startling, but highly gratifying to us, for the Salon Frangais accepted herwork, a bust of a blind woman. In all ways Tid is an enigma. Her ability to add a witty remark and a quizzical look on every occasion has made her an asset in recitations. Though she may not scatter heedlessly her ideas, it is quite evident that she never lacks something to BBY, the fact that she easily leads us to think she is disclosing ber inmost thoughts causes us to reveal our own secrets all too readily. One drawback about Tid is the difficulty with which the less-favored of us comprehend her witty attacks. Quite often we lose the point, though we are prone to believe there was one. How- ever, we must make the most of her, source of pleasure and exasperation that she is, for we are fully prepared never to meet her like again.

1927 CLASS BOOK Printing Committee of Class Book Page Sixteen THE SENIOR CLASS RUTH COX GIBBONS Address-6 Houston Street, West Roxbury, Mass. RUTH, Mas ASTORH Entered, 1920 Born, January 8, 1910 Take heed lest passion Sway thy judgment to do aught. -Milton. At three minutes of nine, many eyes are anxiously turned towards the Study Hall door. At two and one third minutes of nine, while Miss Smith reaches for the door knob, a great scurry outside is heard, and in rushes Ruth, to flop down at her desk just as the bell rings. This dramatic scene occurs at least twice a week. Other mornings she saunters in during the first period, for Ruth mustn't miss her diurnal cup of collee at Marston's. To gaze upon her madonna-like face, one would readily believe her to be a gentle, peace-loving soul. But Ruth has her brainstorms every so often. While we are quietly gazing heavenward hoping to be inspired for tomorrow's theme, a loud 1-rash of falling hooks suddenly sends a chill through our spines. But immediately we return to our day-dreaming, Content that it is only Ruth, a bit disturbed over a science problem. Only her closest friends know that Ruth is quite musical, for it is not very often that she will favor us by playing Red Riding Hood and other nursery songs on the pi:-mo. Ruth can also play-sh! whisper it- a guitar!
