CONSTANCE LILLIAN BLAIS 32 QUINCY AVENUE PAw'ruckis'r, R. I. Glue Club fy, 43: Dearfs List lg, 45: French Play C3, 45, Pres- ident French Club C455 Curriculum Committee, Phi Bela Kappa C45 Petite, feminine, the Pembroke expression of the much-to-be desired chic, and withal an excellent student is Connie. French Club became a thing of interest under her management, and her ingenuity and social poise lent prestige to the organization. East House has witnessed the triumphant exits to games, teas, and dances innumerable which Connie indulges in to while away the hours not spent in Curriculum Committee or Advanced French courses. We read Constance Blais among the privileged few on the Dean's List. yet when one thinks of her, one thinks rather of the slender bathing girl in the scarlet bathing suit, way back in the .Iunior Vaudeville Show, rather than the student. ANNA l-IARLOW BLOSSOM FAIRHAVIEN, MASS. Math Club Cz, 3, 43 Anna is one of those coura eous souls who dare to take a Math major. We should probably be a little in awe of her, were it not for her demure manner and small person, and then she can't be fearsome, or she couldn't have such a way of making Freshmen forget their homesickness. As a Freshman she could spend her time chatting on the fourth floor of Miller with her classmates, but now Math Club claims her and she has deserted Miller for polyhedra and other ghastly objects. NETTAE BORETZ Cotciaiitsrizix, CONN. Nettae is an individualist. She believes in expressing her own opinions and ideas regardless of whether other people agree with her or not, and for that she has our respect and admiration. Nettae spends most of her time over in the chem and bug labs, so we do not see much of her. We know that her strong, philosophical, capable mind and her friendliness will bring her success in her chosen work-here's luck to you, our young Dr. Boretz. 36

F9 J' 5 i 7-E-tn' G - R, 0 CU S a s ti? BRUWAEL l MARY IRENE ADAMS 617 Piv.oc:ixEss AVENUE PROVIDENCE, R. I. Phi Bela Kappa C45 Irene for a few years was listed as a special, and for that reason we of '16 hardly feel that we know her at all. In her Senior year, however, when she did join us, she came into prominence as one of our Phi Betes. And although we know little of her, and see her as a quiet and unassuming girl, we have heard that she helps to make the lunch-room a center of much laughter and gaiety. LAURA ELEANOR ALLEN 85 CEN'l'RAL AVENUE DALTON, MASS. Phi Beta Kappa C4j,' Fistball fr, 2D,' Bowling C1J,' Baseball fzjf Preliminary Honors fzlg Math Club fz, 31 Eleanor is a remnant of our brilliant predecessors, the class of iozg, since she stayed at home for a year. However, when she did return, she joined us and became one of the Phi Betes of our class. She has a turned-up nose which seems to have a keen scent for news and is not at all stingy about sharing it, as Miller Hall will be able to testify. Also she has a great devo- tion for the great subject of Biology and is never happier than when chasing animals in the lab or down at that wonderful place called Cold Spring Harbor. CONSTANCE WARREN ARNOLD gzo Ei.1o'r STREET MILTON, MASS. Sigma Xi C41 Connie! Oh, Connie! Requests for Connie float through the lab and Miller Hall from morning till night, for she can do everything. She got Sigma Xi, but nobody has even seen her study-it is just her superior mind: not grinding. Being so clever in a number of things, Connie cannot decide in which field she should concentrate her activities after leaving college. Perhaps she will be a teacher, perhaps a nurse, or perhaps there will be a Doctor Constance Arnold of great renown. Her reputation is established now and an extensive practice is sure to follow. 35

J N vp 'fi a s A MARION MARY ELIZABETH BROADBENT O71 MAPLE STREET FALL RivER, MASS. Preliminary Honors C215 Phi Bela Kappa C3D.' Dearfs List C3. 4D,' Curriculum Committee Since the middle of Junior year, Marion has had to live down a stigma which is considered a frightful one in the best collegiate circles. Marion became a .Iunior Phi Beta! junior Phi Betes are awesome things to the rest ofthe college, this accomplishment being more than sufhcient to scare away anyone. When we had been courageous enough to disregard this fact we found, however, that Marion was not so terrifying, but underneath that Phi Bete exterior was indeed a sociable, pleasant person although she had been endowed with such high academic honors. MARION NADINE BROOKS z7q IVIORRIS AVENUE PRoviDENc:E, R. I. We are now going to confess that our judgment is often erroneous. We have known and talked with Marion, taken gym with her, and we mentally catalogued her as a cheerful, friendlv person who skipped through her college work to the best of her ability with the rest of us. We heard her chatter about dances, etc., so much that we thought she was one of us. When the rating list came out we received a shock. lvlarion was in the first group! Any girl who makes the first group and yet prevents anybody from suspecting such a thing has our heartiest admiration, ANNA CARPENTER BULLOCK 76 TQEENE STREET PRovinENeE, R. I. Clee Club C3, 43: President Musical Clubs C4D,' Question Club C455 Chairman Cap and Gown Committee C455 Ring Committee C4Jg Spring Day Committee C435 Phi Bela Kappa C4lg Class Fistball Cz, 3, 435 Captain Cgj: Varsity Fislball C4j,' Class Basketball C3, 45, Varsity Basketball C3, 43, Captain C4lf Class Tennis C4j That stately young woman in that stunning squirrel coat is Anna. I-Ier chief concern in life is the welfare of the Musical Clubs and Dorothy Stafford. Aside from her musical self, there is another Anna-a girl who calmly receives A's in those difncult Social Science courses which we hope to pass. Yet a ain there is another Anna-the Anna who captains our Vgllrsity teams and brings them to victory. Athletic, socialistic, and a prominent figure in our gayer functions, an excellent student, and a good friend, what more would you desire of one girl? 37
