' eyes lingering on the shining chrome and the ai gleaming porcelain of the beautiful sink. Vodi' ,g amy -water sprites. Plumbing would never cease to be a miracle to Marusza. Hurry! She must hurry. Gently she picked up the heavy bulky package, wrapped carefully in newspaper, and quickly closed the door behind her. The street was crowded. So many people all hurrying. But it was good to walk in the February dusk and to know that you were a part of Maple Street-that over there above the tinsmith's shop lived your good friend, Hannah Cohen. whose youngest son was with your grandson in the same army camp-and who could speak to you a few words of the Lett language and whom you had taught to make the good solid soup. It was comforting to pass Patti's Pharmacy on the corner. Old Patti was your friend too! How nice the new lights were in the win' dows. That girl of Patti's-how smart! To learn to make medicine and to run the store. Patti was still in the store sometimes. He liked to see his neighbors and visit. He had learned to speak English in the same night class with Ivan when they had first come to America. Ivan spoke English real good before he died and Marusza remembered with pride how he could even correct the children sometimes. Ivan had been a good husband. ' Marusza walked faster. The street lights were on now. Colin O'Brien wasn't on duty. Maybe he was sick. He was a grand officer, young Colin. Each week he gave money to his Batooska in his church for milk for the poor children, and he'd helped the Urbanski boy get a job after he'd been paroled. The Mikklas were doing nice business. The store seemed full of people. Good- good-once the Mikklas family had had to go on relief. It was because they were so kind and gave too much credit-but now they had a new store and that was good too. Thank the good God the Peteroff family had not been on relief. Dimitri had work all through the depression and Kati had kept her job-sometimes only a day each week she worked. But they had managed. She paused to cross 6th Street and waved to Tim Hurley. To think that big gas station belonged to Tim. Marusza smiled a gentle smile when she remembere SEMINARIA 194gWMA ig gr- IQ the many dreams she had seen born in her kitzhen when she and Ivan had lived on 6th Street and her children were young. All those bo, s-Michael and Tim Hurley, and Colin O'Brien's father-the first Colin, the Urbanski boys and the shy dark Phillip who ached so much to be a doctor. All su:h big things those boys had wanted. And Tim had his gas station and Phillip was a doctor-a fine doctor, and her own sons, Casimir whose son was in the army, and Dimitri who was a foreman at the factory-how far they had gone! Mad dreams-which she had seen come true before her wondering eyes. Marusza paused to shift her burden to the other hip, and slowly climbed the steps of the settlement house. How pretty it was. All the hallways trimmed with red paper hearts for the Valentine dance. Kati had a new dress for the party. That was good- irls-all girls-American girls or Lett girls-should have retty dresses for Iuesiias. Soon-too soon, one was too old for the gayety of hcsidas-the whirl of a mursurka and the musi: of concertina and balalacka. Now music was radio. It was keen or smooth or l.ot. Marusza walked to a door whizh stood ajar and knocked- Come in. She entered the large office where a pleasant white'haired woman sat behind a desk and a young gir worked at a typewriter. Mrs Peteroffh how nice to see you. Come in, come in and sit down here. How are you? GoodH-thank you. I stand! I stay one minute. I bring this. Will you get the much money from the man-the man please, you know?' The old woman spoke slowly and carefully. To her, English would always be a foreign tongue. She placed the package on the desk and unwrapped it. ' Mrs, Peteroff-your samovar! Why do you want to sell it-now? Your family are all well and working? Marusza nodded. But I don't understand, said the woman gently, and a perplexed frown touched her brow. Five or six years ago when you really needed the money badly you refused to part with it-and now- Miss Snow paused and looked into Marusza Peterolf's worried eyes. The man-he still buy-no? she asked quickly. Oh yes, I'm sure he still wants it. It's very beautiful-the most unusual one I've ever seen. And Russian antique brass brings a very good price. But are you sure you want to part with it? Yes, please. ' Will you tell me why? The Russian woman stood for some seconds in silence. There was a quiet dignity about the still figure in the black shawl, the dark eyes fixed on the gleaming samovar. The samovar-it is my own thing. From the old country I bring no things but the Icons and my samovar. In my village there is not one like it. The Z0 SEMINARIA 1942 Pomieshchik gave it to my mother. In the old country the samovar is-how you say-- she paused. A symbol? gently prompted Miss Snow. Marusza nodded. In brass, in copper, in those things are made the samovar. But not one in my village was so. She gently traced the intricate silver design inlaid in the brass. Samovars are so- her hands described straight sides. No one but mine is so- her worn palms passed caressingly over the urnfshaped sides of her treasure. A tear trickled down her cheek and she sighed. But that is in the old country. Here the samovar is no thing--not any. Here no one need samovar. No one use charcoal-tum on stove. So I think to give my samovar to Kati-but she laugh. Marusza shrugged her shoulders and smiled apologetically at the woman across the desk. So, Miss Snowfdear, it is my thing. My Casimir's son Alex, he is in the army camp. My son Dimitri, he works hard and his daughter Anna, she works hard too. But me-I do nothing. I want to do! Sol say 'Marusza, you take the samovar to Khazyalka and she will get money from the man and you can pay for bond !' Unnerstan'? But you are giving your family to our country. You need not sell your most valuable possession. What is this 'most valuable possession'? Miss Snow explained and Marusza shook her head. She stood looking thought' fully at the exquisitely wrought, old, brass samovar, polished and gleaming- a perfect museum treasure the man had said. But she didn't see the samovar-she saw the bearded face of her husband, Ivan Peteroff, and heard his voice just as it was when he left her alone in a strange land. I leave us, Marusza, you and our children. But there is no need to fret. We have had a good life and here in America you are safe. There is food and warmth for all, there is opportunity to learn, and work for our children and theirs-and for each man his soul's own God. Ivan was gone. Now the samovar must go-the Russian samovar that would buy an American bond, a bond to keep the safety, the warmth and plenty, the opportunity-and God, Marusza shook her head again-this time definitely and firmly. My samovar is not-my most valuable possession, Khazyalka. I sell my samovar!

Say, listen here, little girl! a young surly policeman barked. Janie looked up at him guiltily and smiled. Janie's smile wasn't an ordinary one. Something special and wonderful happened to her mischievous bluefgreen eyes, and her rosy mouth curled appealingly. The street lamp changed the raindrops on her long flying golden hair to diamond dust. The policeman gulped his half' finished rebuke and just looked at her. As the stopflight changed, and Janie ran through the bustling crowd to the other side of the street, she called back to him with a laugh, 'Tm not a little girl, though, I'm nineteen l But the policeman had probably discovered that for himself. i Janie was in a hurry. Someone very particular was among the hundreds of soldiers coming on the fiveffifteen Empire, and she just couldn't be late. Never in any of the crucial moments of her life had she been known to be on time. But then, Tim wouldn't expect her until at least ten minutes after he had told her to be there. Tim knew her too well. Why, she couldn't' think of anything in her whole nineteen years that she hadn't shared with him in some way or other. He -lived next door, and they had grown up together as brother and sister, only' alittle more inseparable. lt was funny, but he had alwaysppreferred her as a steady play' mate towany of the little boys of the neighborhood. She guessed it was because they were so much alike, both so impetuous, hotftempered, and irresponsible. lt seemed that they always thought of the same thing at the same time. They would go into spasms of laughter over some mysterious joke, leaving all. theirfother friends completely puzzled and annoyed, and later a little disgusted. , The other. little boys never thought Tim was queer for playing with' a girl, never called him sissy, or tortured him the way they did Stinky Lewis for weeks after he chose Penny Miles for dropfthefhandkerchief. lt was probably because Tim was stronger than Stinky. He always protected Janie from all the nasty little boys of the neighborhood when they wanted to squirt her with the hose in the summer time, or deluge her with snowfballs in the winter. She remembered one time he had told them in no uncertain tones to stop using her as a target, and she had walked by them with head high. Suddenly she had felt a heavy thud on her 5.EMlNA.R1A 19.42 has . - a has al neck, and an icy wetness had seeped down her back. She had turned indignantly to End Tim grinning at the other boys. Nope, he laughed, Nobody hits her but me! Tim was always around the house. His father and mother had been killed when he was a small baby, and he lived with his aunt and uncle. They were elderly, had no children, and seemed to make it rather evident to Tim that they had never wanted any. So he had shared her parents. Her mother and father had hoped for a son. And look what they drew, she smiled to herself, and bumped into a moving pyramid of packages, which she later found was being propelled through the crowd by a very irritable woman shopper. Yes, she thought, as she again resumed her walk to the station, her parents had wanted a son, and Tim seemed to suit them perfectly. Tim saw just enough of her home life to know what he was missing. Sometimes he would get awfully despondent and moody, and it would take all of Janie's humor and foolish antics to restore him to his happy self. And then they had grown up. They had left behind them the tempests and tears, the ecstasies and complete joys of their childhood. They left behind them the worrisome, gangly period of stringy pigtails and dirty faces and legs. They emerged into their teens, a whole life of complexities ahead, and they had had lots of fun. CAt this point in her reminiscence Janie dextrously avoided a blind man selling pencils.J They had had a busy time, going to school, learning their lessons, and perfecting their lines. Janie and Tim had fallen in and out of love many times, and each always depended upon the other's advice in serious matters of dates and things. Two memorable events stood out in her mind. The first was the time Tim took her to the movies last summer at Thousand Island Park. She had just reached the reducing stage, deciding that a liquid diet was just the smartest thing to try, and that day she had gone without food. The openfair theater, with its wooden benches and sawdust floor, was a primitive structure. During the picture, boys would go through the audience selling 'peanuts and popcorn. Janie had never been disturbed by this before, but then every call of food, every whiff of the heavenly stuff, every satisfied smack reached her with piercing plainness, sending a sharp pain through her stomach. Finally she could stand it no longer, for she felt rather faint. I'm going home, she had whispered to Tim in a strange, empty voice, but he had paid no attention, thinking she was in one of her nasty moods. After a few minutes, Goodbye, bring ,my shoes when you come, she had said in a trance, and got up, dragging Tim with her. When she came to the end of the aisle, some' one's feet got in her way and she fell headlong into the sawdust. It was the first time she had ever fainted. Tim, in a stage whisper heard above the guns of They LAY!-J-i hm SEMINARI-A 1942 Met in Bombay said, Oh, for gosh sakes, Janie, get up, and he gave her a little inquiring prod with his foot. Tim at that time hadn't quite reached the chivalrous age. And then he realized what had happened, and cried, Oh, hey, she's dead or something! What confusion had followed! The second event was the day Janie had begun to see that her engagement to Malcolm wasn't really what she wanted. She was standing on her porch, looking like a very small, bewildered, woebegone child, when she had heard a sputtering, tinny clatter behind her and had turned to see Tim's familiar Model T. He had come home from college unexpectedly. She had told him her problem. You see, I didn't want to do anything as drastic and complete as marrying. I just liked the feel of it. Engagement, I mean. For gosh sakes, he had said, I don't see what your family was thinking of when they let you get engaged. You can't cook or-well, anything. Malcolm knows it too, if he would only admit to himself-- Go0d! Then you tell him. That's settled, and I won't have anything to worry about any more. Something bright and blue and sparkling had kindled in her eyes and then disappeared. Except-except-Well, maybe I'd like to marry you- sort of- Oh, I've had that planned for a long time. But it won't happen till we're older. You've got lots more to learn about life and love and people. And me, well, I've got to finish college, and then there's the army and-by the way, there's going to be a house party at college next month. Do you want to go? And meet all those supermen you've been writing me about? I'd simply love to. I'll marry you later. Now,I guess I'll just have fun. Janie had laughed then as she laughed now at that foolish person she used to be and probably still was. No one really understood hertthat is, except Tim. He knew her adorable, scatterbrained chatter, careless manner, and childishness were only three-fourths of her whole self. Once in a while she showed a few grains of sense, and it was because of these that he had advised her to go to Art College. She really did have talent and he knew it, so while he went to Cornell, she studied fashion design. She was glad she had been busy, because otherwise she would have missed him more, missed his sense of humor, missed his wonderful personality, missed the long, semi-serious conversations, missed all the marvelous times they had had together. But she had never thought of him as anything except her best friend or a brother until, until-well maybe it was when he was drafted, but she wasn't sure. Maybe it wasn't until today, when his telegram came: Leaving for the SEMINARIA 1942 has 7. a. -.-mt Pacific and action at last. Stopping over an hour at Syracuse at 5:15. Meet me. I've got to find out something. Don't be late, as usual. Love. Tim. Paper-paper, miss! A grimy little boy stuck The 'Times into her face. The Japs have landed at Singapore Island! Paper! Paper! And Janie moved on. It was 5:12. She had to hurry, she had to hurry. Breathlessly she reached the sta' tion and raced down to the track just as a whole trainload of laughing, noisy young men in khaki uniforms was pulling to a stop. How will I ever find him? she thought, and shivered inside. Then she saw him through the window of the car and Tim spied her at the same time. She waved violently, knocking several hats askew. Finally he reached her after minutes of struggling through the unruly crowd. He put his arm around her, there was no room for anything else just then, and led her into the station. Once inside, there was plenty of space. Tim hadn't changed a bit, Janie thought, as she looked across at him in the booth of a funny little restaurant they had found near the station. There was no time to waste going to any of the usual places. No, he was still the same, still had the same glossy dark hair that just would wave ever so slightly despite him, still had the same roguish grin, and the same black, laughing eyes, which always gazed quizzically at the world. They sat and talked of silly, senseless things, the per' sonal things they had shared, of the time Tim had decided that her dog would look more like a thoroughbred with two tiny white spots at his neck and had mixed some peroxide, vinegar, and lemon juice together into a mysterious conf coction he had called a bleaching solution. It's perfectly painless, he had assured her, Oops, oh, well, a couple more spots! But, Janie, it'll grow out in two months. Hey, you're not mad, are you? After about a year, Janie had changed her dog's name to Spotty. They talked of the school's jitterbug contest they had entered and lost, of the tree house they had built, of the closing dance at the club house last summer when they had had an unusual cold spell. They had closed the doors, lighted a wood fire in the huge stone fireplace, turned off the lights, toasted marshmallows, and later had danced in the flickering, crackling light. They talked a bit about themselves, too, there was so terribly much to say, and yet so little. And then it was time to go. Janie wished fiercely that she could clutch the relentless hands of the horrid little clock on the greasy wall and pull them back an hour, a day, a year. They walked into the night. A heavy mist had taken the place of the rain. For a moment it was as if they were two little children again, lost, groping their way 26 I-g SEMINARIA 1942 in the dense gray nothingness, looking for home. A loud Board sounded, and Janie tried hard to conceal the tears that just would come into her eyes. You will wait for me? he made her promise for the thirteenth time. The train was again filling with boisterous life. Just always. She was really crying now, an awful pain came over her. It wasn't like the one she had had after she had been riding on the handle bars of Tim's bike and they had hit a bump. It wasn't quite like the one she had had when her dog had died. It wasn't like anything she had ever experienced before. If it wasn't for you, I don't think I'd care if- Don't! she said. Great stinging tears streamed down her cheeks. But I do. He kissed her. For a while nothing else mattered, the pain had gone, she ceased thinking or feeling. Time was nothing. Board ! At that moment Janie changed. She knew in some intangible,intuitive way. She was no longer a little girl, a silly flighty child to be protected from sorrow and pain. E Whenever you come back, I'll be right here. Ten minutes early, too. And I'll write just every night. . The train, slowly leaving, looked like a huge black bug with waving arms sticking out crazily at all angles. Everything swam before her as she turned dully to go. She looked about at the other people on the platform, at the other grief- stricken faces, and she dried her eyes. There was the pain again. She wondered, not caring, if it would ever stop. He must come back, he must come back, he must come back. Her heart thumped violently as she walked slowly home. Home, she thought, with a question mark. He must come back, he must comeen Janie glanced up at the inky sky. The mist cleared for a second, and two tiny stars' were mirrored in her eyes. Star light, star bright- She stepped off .the curb into the swirling muddy water in the gutter. First star I see tonight- A shrill whistle rent the air. Wish I may, wish I might, have the w- There was a screeching and grinding of brakes. I PATRICIA HALLORAN '42 qi?

After quarrels and trials they opened unto you, Emaciated, dying at the gate, From feverish lips those tardy words they drew, But the fist of War had crumpled up their fate. No knell tolled forth your death and our last peace Save the chimes of loss that wailed our bleak despair, Nor could guilty men your blazing fame surcease, For dark stains of blood traced the story there. Yet, like smoking wick of snuffedfout flame, You, sallow ghost, may light our hope again. Resurrection TO MAC ARTHUR Oh barren skeleton of longfpassed chance Those fleshless bones with life are clothed once more: Oh Opportunity, what hero's lance Has pierced Death's veil and battered down his door? What mortal hand has tumed your dust to flesh, What mortal eye has seen your smoking flame, What human breath has blown you life afresh, And nourished you until you walked again? When enemies would capture your new might Who took their every action in his scopeg Who placed a shade on your revealing light And held you like a banner for our hope?

MHA 32-12 iitee but t t t. - .M ,Ml Tun Late PRIZE ESSAY Funny, I mused, funny that it should turn out just as Mother had predicted- starting on my own just after reaching my eighteenth birthday. I gazed around the efficient modernistic ofhce. The turquoise wallpaper blended harmoniously with the deep bluefgreen of the furniture. The trim receptionist looked as if the atmosphere had affected her, for she was as modern and eihcient as her surf roundings. My gaze wandered to that sacred door to which only the eflicient receptionist had access. In small, unobtrusive print were those two stark, power' ful lines: MR. HOPKINS ' Producer I'd be scared stiff ifl were he. Imagine having to pick out people for a great New York play. What if you picked out a flop? No thanks! as far as I'm concerned, I'll stay right where I am-trying out for the part, not picking the player. My mind returned to that former thought. When had my Mother said that? Must have been simply years ago. I can remember her very words-something about I'm goin to see to it that you wait until the proper time to get a job, Penny. I won't iave you gallivantin' away from home until you're plenty old enough-around eighteen. I didn't think about her resolution again until I reached the anile age of eight, at which time my father had a long, serious talk with me. Penny, you're gettin' older now, and it's high time you realized a few things. First of all, if you want to git somethin' done around here, you've got to go after it yourself. The next thing's concerning yer Maw. I've loved her fer nigh on twentyfeight years, and I'm jest beginnin' ter realize one thing. Yer Maw's a mighty determined woman. She sets her mind on a thing early and then she goes after it. Furthermore, five outa six times, by heck, she gits it. Now most a her ideas are good-old fashioned, maybe, but sound. Ya don't have ter worry about the sound ones, but every once in a while she pops out with somep'n she don't mean. Then yer Maw turns ornery, and unless ya discourage her right from the start, she'll spend the rest of her life in makin' it come true. That was the longest speech Dad ever made to me, and the last. He died three days later from a heart attack. Then came the start of a new existence. Dad had always let me think for myself and make my own mistakes. However, Mother had different ideas. She decided everything for me, and although it was hard at first to do just what I was told, it soon became the path of least resistance to do something because Mother said I should. The first time I asked permission to sleep at my best friend's house, Mother tumed and cried sharply, But, dear, you're much too young! I had grown so ZQUW W Wgfg-gg-,Vg YSEMINARIA 1942 used to accepting everything she said that I made no comment, merely tumed and went up to my room to unpack the little bag I had so carefully prepared. I heard that shocked exclamation often. I wanted to go to camp with all my friends, but upon telling Mother- Why, Penny! You're much too young. Wait till you're eighteen. Mother, can I get a long dress next winter? Young, Penny, much too young. Mother, can't I go out with Jimmy tonight? u My little girl on a date? But you're too young! Too young, too young! Was I never to hear the end of those hideous words? When I went to boarding school, I thought everything would be changed. Mother was, at first, rather unhappy at the idea, but then she became resigned, and adopted the eternal look of a quietly suffering martyr. She helped me pack, and drove me all the way to school, two days' travel. Then she displayed some overly dainty accessories which she had made for my room, and I'll never forget how awfully embarrassed I was when she pulled out my pillow and said she had been too afraid her little girl would feel strange Without something from home. I was in bed one night CI always went to bed earlyj when I heard two girls talking. I only caught a few phrases, but these were enough. They were murmur' ing something about Penny and her Mother's apron strings! When Mother got my telegram, she came right away with the car, and happily drove me home again. I was seventeen years old, and had always been interested in Dramatics. Mother, I'm going to New York and get a job as an actress. Of course not, darling. You're much too young to be doing anything like that. Eighteen is plenty of time. But, Moth- That's all, Penny, I simply won't hear of it. I dropped the subject until a year later, when, upon opening Variety, I chanced to see a notice that there would be tryfouts in two weeks for a new play called 'Young Lady. I looked eagerly at the list of characters. Two stood out-the role of the young lady, and of her older sister. Why shouldn't I try? I'd always taken part in the school plays, and had gone to dramatic school every Friday afternoon or simply years. I investigated the older sister's part, and found that the tryfouts for it were about three days earlier than for the other. I discussed the matter with Mother, and was astounded to hear her say, Why I guess so, dear. You're eighteen, now, and though I still think it's a little young, I think it will be all right. That young lady part would just suit you fine. But, Mother, I wanted to try out for the sister. No, dear, the other part's just right. Now don't argue or I'll fear that you SEMINgQpRIvQp 1942 -g SI aren't mature enough to start out on your career. I'm sure you'll love that part. What was it that Dad had said? When she gits ornery, stop her right there, or- Oh! Well, why think of that now? It certainly had been fun, that trip on the-I felt a tap and looked up to Gnd the trim receptionist smiling at me. I called you, but you didn't seem to hear me. Mr. Hopkins will see you now. She smiled again, reassuringly. Mr. Hopkins, I'd like to try out for- Why you must have meant to come the other day, when we were casting the older sister. No? I'm awfully sorry then, but let's not take up your time or mine. You see, you're much too old. BABBTTB Bam '43 Curses On copying Ogden Naslfs singularly inimitable style of verses. They have asked me For my opinion, very worthy, and I have answered, Yes, I agree. That Ogden Nash, the celebrated poet, is very funny And also clever! His poem, The Turtle is a honey, But slightly risque- Though, really, nothing's very shocking in this de And age. Sometimes, Cwhen I've nothing better to dob I try To write euphonious poetry like his, which is so very clever, but-oh, my! His style is so intricate, it wows me, And my imitations are lowsfee. So next time they ask me for my valued opinion, I'll only grin-ion And smirk. Because writing such original rhyme is much too much like work. So I'll merely raise the ancient Ogden Nash unfair to organized rhyme and meter chant Because no one can create Nash's Trashes- At least, I can't!!! CLAIRE Lizvy '42 32 sEMiNARiA 19,42 The World ls Ynunq LOWER-SCHOOL STORY SUNDAY Dear Diary, Today, we drove up to the Adironf dacks. The ride in general was simply awful, for Mother, now in the midst of her latest artistic bent, wanted to stop almost everywhere to sketch a lonesome group of pines or some dilapidated but antiquated farmhouse. Pop finally got so angry with her that he lost his temper, and wouldn't stop anywhere at all: so the first thing Mother did when we reached the hotel was to get out her easel so that she could paint the picturesque scenes which she had passed, before they vanished from her memory. Bud was out of sorts, too, because Pop wouldn't let him drive, and he gloated audibly whenever Dad forgot to stick out his hand or shift gears. 'ell, it will be two whole delicious weeks before we go through all that agony again, and l mean to make the most of them. MONDAY Today, I met the cutest boy! I was down hy the swimming pool in my new yellow bathing suit trying to get a tan, when Craig Cthat's his namel got out of the water, and in doing so, splashed and dripped all over me, and that's how it began. Of course, he immediately apologized, and soon afterwards we were talking as if we had known each other for years. l'le is sixteen, quite tall Cheaven he blessed lj, blond, athletic, and oh, just a dream boy! He asked me ifl was going to the dance tonight, and also if we could eat supper together. I said no to the latter, hecause you know you must never appear too anxious. But he sent me a corsage of gardenias and danced with me the whole evening. There is a beautiful moon out now that is reflected in the lake below like shim- mering damask, and the stars are like surprised eyes, blinking every time they see something shocking. There is a drift of music from downstairs where some of the guests are still dancing, and the noise of talking rises and falls like a gigantic wave. Every now and then, the trees sway a little like protecting iangels. What a won' derful place! Goodnight! SEMINARIA 1942 33 SATUXDAY Oh, Diary-I haven't written in you for days on end, I know, but there hasn't been an ounce of time in which to write a jot. Every day has been filled to over' flowing, and I hate to think of the time when this perfectly glorious vacation will end. In fact, I don't even think about thinking about the er 1 of it. Bud has been teasing me unmercifully about Craig, and Mother is forever worried whether it is proper to do things with one boy so much. Dad takes no notice of us at all, and practically lives on the golf links. Craig is still as perfect as ever, more so, if it is possible. Dear Diary, do you think sixteen is too young to get married? I've decided that marriage is far preferable to a career-even to that of beigg an actress! If The weather has been heavenly, sunshine every day except one, and that was the best of all. It was a real storm, with thunder and lightning, and a terrific wind that beat the trees as if it were a cat o'nine tails, and howled and whistled around the hotel. We all sat around a blazing fire in the Grill, toasting marshmallows, popping com, and singing songs. Each day seems better than the last. It is late now, so I'd better be getting to bed, in order to be beautiful tomorrow. WnnNnsDAY U g Oh, Diary, I've been neglecting you horribly, but, as usual, there hasn't.b1,3n any time in which to do anything so unimportant as writing. I don't know what I'm oing to do when we leave Sunday. just think of having to spend the rest of my Efe with such unimaginative people as Mother and Dad, and worst of all, with Bud! Brothers are simply awful! Craig is so different, and we've had such perfect times together. Oh, darn, Mother's calling rrf to put out my light, so Goodnight. SUNDAY Well, here we are home again. Those two weeks flew by like lightning! Craig promised that he would write soon and often. The ride back was worse than the ride up. Mother fretted the whole way because she was sure she had forgotten something, and even made Dad go back twice Cbut we'd only gone about five milesj E some dopey pictures she had done. What a relief Hnally to get home and to d! I MONDAY What an awful day! All we did was ride our bicycles, and Janie chattered about nothing except her new dress-some sort of a yellow affair. I wanted badly to write to Craig, but I know it isn't proper, or something. I should get a letter from him tomorrow or Wednesday. What bliss, when I do! ! ! ! ! W1znN1zsnAY There is nothing to do here at all-only tennis, swimming and bike-riding. I'm invited to a dance two weeks from Saturday with that dumb boy next door-How 34 SEMINARIA 1942 hideous! No letter from Craig yet, but I hope I'll get one tomorrow. I have the answer to it all thought out-not too distant, but not too near either. After all, you can't expect a boy to write too soon-not even Craig! SATURDAY Still no word from Craig. I wonder if anything has happened to him-oh golly-Should I write Hrst? The weather has been terrible. If it is sunshiny, it is hot and damp and sticky, and if it rains, it is even more boresome. MONDAY Everything is as stupid and hideous as it can be! Everybody is either dis ust' ingly bright and gay, or horribly gloomy. The sun has beat down unmercifilly, and I simply hate this dull place. Why, oh' why doesn't Craig write to me? It has been over a week now since we left, and still not a word. THURSDAY Dear Diary, I know I haven't written in you regularly, but there just isn't enough energy in me. Mother has upset the whole house and our stomachs in the bargain because she can't get a cook. Imagine worrying about a cook at a time like this! Craig, please write soon. SUNDAY What a day! Everyone was grouchy and nasty, and I haven't had a letter yet. There seems to be dust all around from this hectic heat. It gets all over you and scratches. Nobody else has said anything about it, but everybody is stupid anyway. I can't even get to sleep nights, because of that darn moon that shines in through my window. TUESDAY I've given up all pretense of being gay. I haven't received a letter yet, and it has been such a long time. WEDNESDAY Oh, Misery, why don't I get a letter? The mailman has gotten to the place now where he says not yet, every moming, and I wonder that the postman isn't haunted by me, or at least, that he doesn t feel that way. What should I do? FRIDAY Mother dragged me downtown today to get a dress for the dance tomorrow night. I don't see why I have to go, but Mom's making me, worse luck. If only I SEMINfIl1IAgIg942Y -n A . 35 were going with somebody nice-or Craig. I could cry when I think of the dances we went to together. Why haven't I gotten a letter? He is all I ever think of, and today, when I was writing a telephone message, all I wrote was, Mrs. Craig called and wants you to Craig next Craig. Oh dear, I wish I were dead! SATURDAY Tonight, at the dance, I met the cutest boy' SUZANNE DORNTGE '44 lln Beinq Sixteen I lie beside the friendly brook And all the woodland's pleasures see, Or settle in the garden nook With poems of love and chivalry. My heart's grown tired of childish fun, The rowdy games I used to play, Like climbing trees or playing tag Or cherryfpicking outs in May. My favorite poem enfolds a rose, The nightingale could boast my tone, I've learned to glide instead of walk, And I'd far much rather be alone.

SEnIvilNARIA 19472 37 Lnve thy Neiqhhur l It was a lovely Sunday morning, the church was filled with flowers, the sun was shining, the snow was melting, and the crocuses were peering out at the world with muddy, yellow facesg but I was in a bad mood. Today the minister had used Love thy Neighbor as his text. I wondered if he really believed what he was sayingg or if he had always lived in a cloister fat least in a place where all well' meaning neighbors were firmly kept outside the threefmile limit. In the lirst place neighbors must be treated with politeness just because they are neighbors. 4 If the man next door runs over your newly 7 seeded lawn with his car, you must put on your accidents-willfhappen face and smile forgiv- ingly. At any other person you could swear politely and give him a suitable black eye, but your neighbor isa special parasite who deserves the most delicate language. When you see his wife coming up the front walk with one of her Hindigestion pies, you put out the Welcome Mat and tell junior to go change his shirt. When their black cat does a Lawrence Melchior on your back fence, you put the pillow over your head and only dream of throwing shoes. When their son's baseball comes crashing through the window and makes a direct hit of your prize Ming vase, you boil all over your family, but you simmer down to a boysfwillfbefboys attitude by the time Mr. jones comes over to apologize. But the main trouble comes when Mr. Jones has a wild party and in desperaf tion you phone over to ask him to quiet down. The next week you have a party and Mr. jones calls over and asks you to make less noise. Then every morning you smile politely and good morning each other while Mr. jones is thinking The idea of asking us to be quiet after that brawl they threw, and you are seething, The nerve of him, calling just to spite us. This party trouble has several other disadvantages. There is also the neighbor who believes that she should be invited to every aihiir you have, and therefore offers to lend you her coffee urn, a chair or two, her handfpainted bread and butter plates, and a dozen other articles you do not need. Of course there is nothing to do but invite the woman and Race the problem of tactfully disposing of her squatty chairs and cracked china. as 'gg M A EAQMINARIA 1942 By the time your own party is forgotten, you meet the ,Ioneses at a tea. There is nothing to talk about because each family knows too much about the other's personal life. For the past four years you have seen Mrs. jones' shadow brushing its teeth and have watched Mr. jones, baggy trousers and all, cleaning his car. Undoubtedly they have seen you taking down the laundry when your hair is in curlers and your slip is showing. You hesitate to leave the tea for fear they will start talking about the argument between you and your brother, and they hope that you will go hrst so that no one will hear how their daughter let herself out of the attic window on a rope. This uncomfortable relationship is made more acute by the car situation. Mr. Jones and you have the same driveway to your respective garages, and he is always leaving his car in the drive so that you are late in taking junior to school. When his car is not by your back door, it is parked so as to obstruct your front walk and your family always has to get out into the mud. At night, when your household is asleep, Mr. jones goes banging up the driveway in his old rattleftrap Ford, rolls back the rumbling garage doors, and in every way does his best to arouse the entire family. But he is your neighbor and nothing can be done about it. You and Mr. jones have seasonal troubles too. In the summer all the dandelion seed from his lawn blows over on to yours, in the fall he allows his piles of leaves to stand so long that they drift over to your side, in the winter there is the old dispute over how far to shovel and who is going to do it. And when Mr. Jones piles the snow against your house, it leaks through the walls. The spring usually finds you going around after the Jones' boys, putting up the guard rails around your new grass. Why is it that boys always insist on pulling up stakes? But your troubles have only begun. You are probably blessed with the help- ful neighbor who tells your children what to do, who informs the dryfcleaning man that you are not at home when you usually are, who takes packages for you and forgets about them for weeks, who instructs your milk man that she is sure you made a mistake in ordering that much cream, who feeds your dog which is supposed to be on a special diet, and does her best to loosen the bolts of your family machinery. There is nothing you can do but tolerate her. Yes, there is no doubt about it. Your neighbor is your most polite but worst friend. He is the smudge on your makefup of deception, the peekfhole into your private life, the uninvited spectator of your morning exercises, the instigator of your subconscious instinct to murder, the motive in your before-breakfast grouch, the stain on your garb of respectability, the skeleton that you found in the closet of your house when you bought it, the dark cloud over your domestic horizon. If you paint your house gray with green trim, he will rob it of its originality by doing the same, if you plant your yard with clover, it will blow over and decorate sg1gM1NAR1A img, so his lawn, if you set out rose bushes, the best blossoms will be on his sideg if you plant tulip bulbs, his cat will dig them up, if you hoard sugar, his wife will come over and borrow itg if you take the evening paper, his dog will trot home with it. When as a last resort you pack up and go to your summer home, you find the Smiths' little boy drilling holes in your hotfwater tank. At this crisis there are two ways left open to you: you can go find yourself a nice, peaceful, quiet hermitage, or you can be a hypocrite and Love thy Neighbor. ALLISON Ross '42 Niqht Scene The wind on the hill is cold and chill, And the trees are bent with pain. And God looks down with a troubled frown On a world that's gone insane. The sky is bright with a Eery light That comes with a cannon's roar, But the flash is gone and the echo is bome Into the dark once more. Stop, while yet you may forget, And greet the morn againg And live once more as you did before, Freed from your old, old pain. Oh, why does earth again give birth To Hends and disasters like these? No answer comes back through the eerie black But the sighs of the aged trees. No road goes back. The night is black, And the moon withdraws her beams. The wind on the hill is cold and chill, And the world has been robbed of her dreams. BARBARA Goom-run '43 if-gpm SEgMINARIA Snug Tn The Unhurn To you who still lie sleeping far from life And cling to heaven's last security- What world is this that you emerge upon, What earth is this where you will come to be? Men sing to you of rage and tyranny, Their lyres discordant with embittered hateg They chorus of a bleak and barren world And sing thee of a catapulting fate. They chant of men, who, loving liberty Much more than life, have risen up to fightg Spewing forth venom on their fellow man To defend with empty vengeance unknown right! It is no pretty tune they sing to you W'ho have not yet departed from your God, And yet it is the song of sweetest liberty, Long lost upon our blackened, bloody sod. Oh, curl your chubby fingers in disgust And turn to them your guileless, azure eyes- And do not listen to their hymns of enmity, But spum their propaganda and their lies. And tell them of a new and shining world- Of clouds of cotton drifting on the blue, Of verdant hillsides and of frisking lambs, And the sweet scent of narcissus bright with dew. And with the harmony of purest innocence, Carol with a baby's selfless graces About the sweetness of a summer rain, Leaving but the tearfstreaked pansy faces. And laugh with lightness, baby, unaware- And lend them of your stillfbelieving youthg Oh, unborn child, sing out to heaven's height And lead the way for God's own psalm of truth!

Then I had felt nausea, sharp pain, Q and a steady, throbbing ache. But this too was an ache, an ache in my heart. Wheia I was very little I used to run to my brother, Win, with my secrets. The day I watched my canary die,I cried on his shoulder. The time I saw the always friendly grocer shout horrible words at a frightened little boy who had knocked over a display, I ran to Win and poured out my indignation to his com' forting presence. He tried to explain that the grocer had been feeling badly that day his brother had just lost his job. He hadn't meant his words- -was just blowing off steam. Win would talk to me, not with great words and inspired phrases, but hesitantly and simply. As he spoke, his own wishes, beliefs and dreams were transplanted to my mind. After Wiii started taking girls out, he still came to my room every night for a few minutes. Telling me about the dance, he would say just how a fellow liked a girl to act-enot gooey, or bored, but lively and interested. He said that he would bop me good if I ever frizzed my hair or plucked my eyebrows, and he and Freddy Powell made a pact that they could spank each other's sister if either one ever caught Patty or me smoking. We made sure they never did. But Wiia wasn't just someone to kid with. When he couldn't decide whether to quit school and keep his summer job throughout the winter or give up this good chance, he came to my room and told me what he thought. I never told him what to do, mostly because I figured that he knew a lot more, and partly because I always seemed to agree with him in the end, but he liked to talk his thoughts out loud, and liked someone to listen to them. Long ago we had made a pact that we would talk our problems out together. His new problem about school was the biggest one yetg so he went on talking for a long time, and I listened. After a while he decided to go back to school. QEMI-I-NARIA 1942 43 I had many problems too. One day I had my own money with which to buy a dress all by myself. I bought the clinging one. When Win saw my new dress he didn't say he didn't like it, but he looked at me sort of queerly and waited. I felt that I had to explain but the words would not come out. The next day I took the dress back. My brother sighed with relief and grinned, If you ever get a drape like that again, I'll bop you good. Win was nineteen in the summer before December seventh. His birthday was in August and Mother always said laughingly that she could never understand why a son like that was born on a Sunday. After graduation from high school Win almost naturally had taken a job at the defense plant near our home. All the fellows did. Freddy Powell and Shorty Tarmer were both working there. But Freddy wasn't the steady kind of fellow. He'd rather fool around at the store where the gang practically lived than work eight straight hours a day. He lost his iob and found another cliauffeuring an elderly lady around. Win and Shorty stayed on, and after a while Win was earning over thirty dollars a week. Shorty had a year's more experience and had a good oiiice job, while Win had been in the shipping department- tossing freight cars around, he often told me-until a few weeks ago when he had become an inspector. Win wasn't right for an oflice job, but he was quick with his hands, had a keen eye, and could boss other fellows around without their getting huffy. His new job had wonderful chances for advancement, and would become so essential that he might never have to go into the army. I had gone into high school and had lots of homework every night, but we still liked to talk to each other. It wasn't exactly confiding because we didn't discuss dark secrets-we just talked about every day. Until one evening. While I was kneeling on the floor in front of the bookcase, I overheard Win dialing the phone. He sounded serious when he asked the operator for the Army Flying Cadets' recruiting office, and he was very polite when he asked if it was true that the age limit had been lowered. After he hung up, there was a moment's pause before I heard him dialing again and then talking to Freddy. I was just naturally listening until I heard him say that he hadn't spoken to the family yet because they wouldn't understand why he wanted to enlist. He said yes, that he would meet Freddy at nine in the morning, and that was all I heard. I don't know whether he hung up then or went on talking. It wasn't for a few minutes that I repeated his words to myself as I methodically put books back on the shelves. His going away wasn't the cause of my tense faceg his tone of voice was. He had said in a beaten voice that he hadn't spoken to the family because they wouldn't understand. I was in the family and he hadn't told me about this wish of his. At dinner that night Win announced that he was planning to enlist, but he 4v4 gr igg g SIQMYINARIA 1942 needed the written consent of his parents. My sister, a year older than myself and a popular, pretty girl, widened her eyes and oohed with delight. Think of a brother in the air force! She could come to visit him and he could get her darling dateseeall men in the air force were so cutefbut be sure to make them tall! Mother looked mistreated and ready to bring out a good crop of tears. Dad said nothing but got a hirfaway dreamy look in his eyes. I stared at the glaring crystal. Win went on to say that he'd been thinking it over for quite a while. QI winced when he said that, but he didn't seem to notice.j He looked helplessly around the table as no one spoke, and then hurried on to add that Freddy was enlisting too, Shorty was Waiting to be reclassified because his defense job had deferred him before, Smiley Richardson had enlisted in the Marines a week ago. As his voice hurried on, it became more enthusiastic and his words seemed to tumble out. He really wanted to go. He talked about being sent to Arizona for his initial training, about having six months of intensive study, about being commissioned as a secondflieutenant, and about the tests he would take in town before leaving-A he'd heard they were snaps, and we could bop him good if he didn't pass easily. All the while he talked I sat watching the shimmering glass. I listened not to his words but to his excited voice, and I kept repeating over and over to myself, My family wouldn't understand why I want to join. Maybe he was right. Maybe we would not want him to go, or think that he himself really wanted to leave the job he had been so proud of. But he didn't ask us, he didn't ask me. I wouldn't understand, either.

U2M.1L5':!S!,f'L1 9 4 2 47 Excerpts From THE MUSIC TEACHER RUTH Fowuza Anna's long bony fingers skimmed lightly across the keys as the tinkling notes of the Merry Widow Waltz cut the cold air of the room. It was the gray hour before twilight, and a topfheavy lamp with a spotless, faded shade threw a semi' circle of light on Anna's bony face. Occasionally she started and gave an in' voluntary shiver in spite of the black crocheted shawl which was wrapped tightly about her frail body and emphasized the sharp bones of her shoulders. A little smile played at her lips, and her eyes sparkled madly as she tried to race with the gusty snowflakes outside her window. Faster and faster she tapped the keys, and faster and faster the snowflakes whirled and twirled. Now she was ready for the last chord, but her fingers slipped, and a shrill dissonance shuddered along the bare walls. A thousand repressed fears jerked her to her feet. The dreary, barren room offered no comfort, but the kitchen was a brighter place. She stood on her tiptoes and peered into the cupboard. Spying a dry, curling sandwich lying beside an empty tin can, she found that the exhilaration of her past mood was gone, and she was not hungry at all. Back she wandered into the dark room and sat down in a faded rocker. Watching the snowflakes frolic outside made her almost forget the chill of the room. The vulture wings of night seemed to close about and suffocate her. Tomorrow was so near . . From TOMORROW CAME JUDY WILHELM Vacation came at last.

Her pose may be languorous, but her look is demure. The height of Ackiefs ambition is to be sophisticated and to wear a black strapless gown. jean also affects a pompaf dour, and nails very, very long, and dark, dark red. Adverse to too much work, and in love with dancf ing, jean mixes school and pleasure, well, if not wisely. ' JEAN ALVORD 1 l their own destination ROSALYN BANKS In four years Rosalyn has gained control of her modest blushes, and is now as serene as a Senior is supposed to be -fexcept when caught in one of those sudden giggling spells that can disrupt any class. Her quiet plaids and favorite maroons and greys are known from archery in the gymnasium to the piano in the music studio where she practices in- dustriously. Her light soprano singing voice is in surprising contrast to her deep throaty speaking notes. Rosalyn's punctuality and dependability are two of her distinguishing assets. Blessed with the rare comhin ition of brown eyes and golden hair, Jean stands out from other blondes --a mischievous imp whose hearty chuckle and gossip are heard from the Semin iry h ill to her green Chevy. Nothing but her easy pessimism curbs her enthusiasm, but given anything to do she is sure to do it well. jean has a natural talent for ev ilu ltmg people in one word, though she may have met them l only once.

DOROTHY BAUCKUS Dottie is the girl of the shadowy tresses and the lithe form swathed usually in a long, lush sweater, one of her collection coveted by all her senior mates. Gentle and sweet by nature and by deed, she reveals these qualities in the light of her soft brown eyes, timid as a startled doe's. One of her cutest mannerisms is twiddling a stray strand of her dark brown hair around one of her enviably beringed hngers. Altogether Dottie is our lass with the .. delicate air. SALLY BOYD Were it not for her famed splurges of red, Sally, with her pink cheeks and matching sweaters, might easily be mistaken for a Dresden doll. Envied for her proud ownership of a smooth convertible, Sally pads through life in velvet shoes, often changing to roller skates for a whirl. Equipped with soft tones and a slow, sweet smile, and with a colleague at her side, Sally makes no splash, but always a pleasant ripple. JANE BUTLER Despite Jane's quiet demeanor and her estimable habit of listening to what others have to say, she often scurries off to hear that simply wonderful baritone at church, extols the virtues of the Ford Sunday Evening Hour, or sings herself in a clear, pure, beautiful soprano. Distinguished for eloquent brown eyes and her generosity in passing out coughfdrops to starving bookworms, jane has astonished us for years with her amazing ability to soak up knowledge, seemingly without appreciable effort. 1942 Wu if g 53 jAN1cE COATSWORTH Don't let janice's demureness fool you-she's really quite a chatterbox. One usually finds her, her A petite form draped in a size 40 sweater, standing in front of a mirror, slipping a comb through those floppy dark locks, her pert little nose wrinkled in animated enjoyment of conversation. Narfs cute portrayal of Ducky gave everybody a great deal i of pleasure. Since she joined our ranks last year, she has become a prominent member of the convertible set, and, with Sally Boyd, often flies low around the city. NANETTE COFFEY Nonngfs peachesfandfcream complexion, surf rounded by a halolof golden curls, is the envy of us all. Though she may seem scatterfbrained at times, because of her weakness for being late for not com- ing at allj, Nanette always has very definite ideas to which she sticks doggedly until convinced other- wise. During class she is sure to confuse her teacher as well as her classmates with her tardy questions. Non's abhorrence of affectation is perhaps responsible for her own genuine naturalness, sometimes humor' ous, but always appreciated. CAROL DoNovAN Should you one day find Carol's name in a list of champion swimmers, don't be surprised for she has long been noted for her superior back stroke. Or if you ever need someone to laugh at your wittif cisms, look up Carol ! Yet, changeable as a chameleon, her smile may widen into a Cheshire grin made entrancing by her green eyes fringed with exotic lashes, and the next moment resolve into a stormy pout. Carol's practical-mindedness Hnds an outlet in her knack for knitting. Observe the intricate argyle plaid socks she produces! a j,Eh4Ui4RlA. 1012 MARYELLEN GOULD Clerk during her junior year and Executive Secretary of School Government this year, Mary' ellen has proved her ability to rule with a giggle. Yet when the situation demands, Gouldic has amazing dignity and force. But she is just like the rest of us in her groans at the Vergil assignments. On tlie hockey held Maryellen is a whiz, her fluffy blond hair bobbing as she races toward the goal, and her head bobs just as energetically at a down' town movie. Her sparkling eyes and quickfrespondf ing laugh have won our Gouldie many friends. RUTH GUNDLACH Ruth is our southern belle, for that Gone With the Wind waistfline has all her friends green with envy. But her hair! When she is not washing it, she is worrying about when she is going to wash it. And her clothes! The hours she spends downtown searching for those which will give her that robust look that she attempts to cultivate in endless waysffwitness her extravagant coke' drinkingj. Economical of speech, she occasionally mutters as she goes about the study hall, Oh, sfafy now, or you and me both! PATRICIA HALLORAN Pat's imagination has provided her with much material for her admirable literary efforts. Add to this a delightfully quaint humor, an artistic ability that has decorated her books with clever drawings, and an inability to arrange letters the way Miss Thompson and the dictionary prefer them, and you have Pat. But we warn you-Pat is final in her decisionsg she does not take advantage of the proverbial woman's privilege and change her mind, no amount of persuasion can bend her determined will. SEMINARIA 7194i g hwgff MARGERY HELLINGS Big as a minute and twice as quick, Marge always knows what is going on in everyone's love life, school life, and general affairs. Monday through Friday, she is found as often at the piano, faithfully practicing hours a day, on Saturday, in the front row of the movies. She is far-famed for her heterogef neous collection of records, and for her tiny feet. An imitator of girls whom she admires, Marge surprises you by speaking like one, walking like another, and gesticulating like a third. MARY'LOU HOPKINS Vibrant and alert, MaryfLou's personality may spring at you from unexpected corners of her mind with clever phrases, spicy and wellfaimed remarks, snatches of song from the high C level, or thumbfnail sketches which fill her books. Elevated by those high heels she loves so well, that bright orb you see before you isn't the sun-it's her .t ' Titian hair. And mirabile dictu--she doesn't mind Exe being called Red. Not infrequently MaryfLou ii irit sallies forth to battle whence she emerges not inf . frequentlyfnbloody but unbowedf' MOLLY JACKSON Delightfully gay and lightfhearted, Molly has shown an incredible capacity for hard work in her excellent management of the Business Board. Among her friends, Molly's realism and frankness are evident in her salty remarks and her flares of temper, swift, but soon forgotten. A devotee of fieldfhockey, she has raced each season up and Clown the field, her cheeks aflame and her blonde hair streaming in the wind. But on a weekfend night, Molly appears, blase and sophisticated, on the dance floor. Q l O d.md.-....d.. .... . E S E M1lifXR I 4 E Wi? ELAINE JAMES A tall figure dressed in a frock with buttons down the front, a Mona Lisa smile, impeccable hands-and you have Jamie. Though she definitely is not the boisterous type, you know she is there. Her quiet humor and love to hear fbut not to dish? gossip make her welcome to everyone who likes to talk. Her favorite sport is riding in convertibles and she is famous for her tremendous assortment of relatives. We predict that whatever the situation, Elaine will meet it in a calm and ladylike manner. JEAN JEFFREY Jean's spanielfbrown eyes and expectant voice are easily recognized, for if she is not earnestly questioning you about your weekfend, she is asking your expertadvice on her own affairs. Her mind jumps quickly from one extreme to the other, leavf ing her friends breathless with surprise at her changes of mood. A champion swimmer, Jeanie has rows of silver cups, and is also an excellent shot with a rifle or revolvergbut withalf-vusoher, steadfast, and demuref' JEAN Joict It would be hard to forget those twinkling eyes set off by bangs and pigtails which made Jean a piquant little person when she entered the Seminary. Garbed in a costume of her sister's latest design, Jean may be observed in determined concentration on Vergil, occasionally offering in her soft voice a selffassured answer. Or you might find her wearing a wellflettered tunic, bobbing about with a tennis racket. No matter where she is found, she adds to the pleasure of the group by her tranquil friendlif ness. SEMlVNARYlA WlQf4Y2 M gg GLORIA JONES If, by chance, you should hear a giggle developing into a roar, you may be sure it's jonesie. Being the type who splashes in a sunshiny mood which ex' tends even to her red hair, she is often the only one who sees something funny in her puns and jokes. Gloria's wit, at times biting, is carried even into the classroom where she is known for her high marks as well as her remarks. Decidedly not the athletic type, she is, however, extremely active in other fields. ALICE KLINCK Grey eyes, dark hair, a good figure, and a hearty laugh introduce Alice. Her low voice is often heard arguing steadfastly for her own point of view as she emphasizes her remarks with a nodding head and ex' pressive hands. With no apparent emotion, Alice plows through her work, not stopping until she has done her serene best. Alice's friendliness and appref ciation of humor, coupled with her dark beauty and poise, assure popularity for their possessor. JOANNE LAUTZ losie is often found in 1 music-loving audience, her pale, blonde hair perfectly coiffed, as she sits calm and absorbed. But frequently jo's mood changes to a volcanic rage, with flashing eyes and a telling tongue. Although her wrath may be kindled over some little thing, when confronted with a difficult problem she remains quiet and composed. A perfect hostess, josie exercises her meticulous good taste and her perfected manners in daily conduct. .C EEMINARD5 oooo 3252 AVERY LEEMING Hear those melodious violin strains, those pon- derous piano chords, that ringing contralto? That's Avery all right. The serene countenance with its habit of becoming fiery red, and the stately bearing unspoiled by those enormous strides which get her places in record time, invest our Avery with an air of assurance. Her analytical powers, her quick answers, her temperamental explosions make her a companion always delightfully varied. If the hours' afday practising is any indication, Avery will not allow her talents to lie idle. CLAIRE LEVY A tall figure with tapering legs hastening down the hall to hand in a paper she- forgot? -fClaire, you may be sure. Past master of the art of story telling, Claire makes commonplace incidents fascif nating. Were she telling one of her stories in the middle of a flood, no one would budge till the water rose chin high. Should a villain pounce on you, or a meek little, hiccoughing man offer you a limp hand, it probably would be Claire, not quite out of a character she has lived on our stage. HARRIET MICHAELS Absentfminded Hattie makes classfroom discus' sions delightful by her wandering prattle, her ability to wage a convincing argument, and her idealizing of F.D.R. When not embarked on one of her unconscious escapades, she is recuperating from overwork, or really listening to what you have to say. Her quiet, unobtrusive mannerisms are occasionally bombed by witty remarks, intentional and otherwise. Blessed with a complexion not com' mon, alas, to the average schoolfgirl, she is always carefully dressed, usually in some shade of red. SEMINARIA 1942 MARJORIE MONTROSE To be understood, Marge must be seen in at least three different moods. In one, she is found strugf gling diligently to attain higher grades, in another, she is seen poised and confident, carrying out some school projectg in a third, she is found dashing about the city in her own little coupe, gay and giggling, crinkling her eyes when she laughs. Even when Marge is busy with her own work, she is willing to help another girl or, with a friendly inf terest which charms her beneficiaries, listen to a woeful tale. CECILY Moor A slammed door, a deep jolly voice, a jubilant laugh, and you know Cess is in the ofling. With her flashing smile and dynamic personality, Cecily is the buoyant spirit of the class. Disliking poetry, loving sailing Cshe's the nautical queen of Thunder Bayuj, easily bored by palaver but willing to listen to any body's real story, and with hearty compassion for the unfortunate-eCess laughs off her own troubles with an ability we much admire. Her friendly is a password in the halls. MARJORIE MouL Swish! There goes Marge in her big blue Buick. Perhaps her speedy driving is a mark of her courage vor should we say nerve? Marge is afraid of no one, and is often heard voicing her opinions to the strictest of teachers or parents. Always the perfect hostess, she is famous for her merry parties and her sense of humor which, with a touch of sarcasm, de- lights all her friends, except the helpless victim. Explosive as a firecracker, Marge praises at one mo' ment and blames at the next. 50 o5EMI,Nf5-RIA 1942 MIRILYN MOWAT In the past four years, Mirilyn has changed from a shy grammarfschool lass into a regular glamour' girl. Although she occasionally plays basketball, badminton claims most of her attention. A steady, hardfworking student, she amazed her fellow suffer- ers by taking Caesar in her freshman year. Wherever Mirilyn goes, she is always welcome for her good' natured open-handedness. Her high spirits and enthusiasm for anything in which she has a part, no matter how small, are two of Mirilyn's chief assets. VIRGINIA MURPHY Sparkling green Irish eyes, wavy chestnut locks, and a ready smile are only the beginning of Ginny's charm. Always goodfnatured and willing, she is usually the amiable victim of her friends' jests, which makes her a favorite among us. When it comes to work, she takes her own sweet time, but she does the task well. Not being of very practical I mind, she is often seized with spells of gurgling. Enthusiastic, as well as sympathetic, Ginny has a I train of youthful admirerseand older ones too! MARGARET GQBRIEN Crash, bang, rattle-here comes Margie! Alf though she drives a car so smoothly you don't feel a bump, she can't seem to walk that way. O.B. is generosity personihecl, and as a hostess, makes you feel right ta home. Our song for her is, For she's a jolly good fellow, one explanation of her excellent captaincy of the Hornet team. Food and sports are two of Maggie's strong points, - ' . another is that she'll at least try anything else she thinks worth while, still another is that when she says I will, she will. SEMINARIA 1942 BARBARA PETERSON With her head in the clouds, Barbara is often seen shuffling placidly down the hall. Though she may give one the impression of quietness,she is talkative enough when she is with those she knows well. Loved for her sense of humor, Pete is one of those girls who make humorous remarks without realizing their value until minutes later. Although she does not smother herself with other work, Barb un' accountably enjoys mathematics. We grin at her hey, listen, but we depend on her word. BARBARA Porrs Known for hilarious clowning, tongue tipped with sarcasm, and unshakable loyalty, Pottsie may seem a reckless choice for class treasurer, but those who know her stickftofitfiveness understand the great success with which she accomplished this task. Her strawberry blonde bob, her lush pastel sweaters Cnotwithstanding a marked preference for navy bluej distinguish her from our other class wits. Her apt imitations and cleverlyfcoined phrases are the envy of all her fellow seniors who know how i engaging such abilities can be! VIRGINIA RADLEY Long eyelashes and an adopted giggle remind us of Ginny, and oddly enough, she is seen as often on the sports Eeld as she is on the dance floor. Her widefeyed baby talk is realistically juvenile because she is the only one who can possibly understand it. Noted for her innocent blink, her lipsticks, and her collection of photographs that change with the seasons, she has often graced our Seminary stage with herself and her histrionic abilities. -Egg gg gSgElxfIINARIA 1942 SUZANNE REBSTOCK Suzy's smile is almost as quiet as her voice, and she is as much at home in the lab dissecting frogs, as she is in the kitchen making crepes-suzettes. She is known for her Dutchfdoll appearance, ber lacerf ated hands which are one reward of being kind to animals, and her frequent visits to New York. Bef tween whiles she marries off a brother or a sister. Hesitant to voice her opinions,Suzy nevertheless has good ideas, as proved by her capable chairmanship of the Social Service Committee. NANCY REED Nan's flushed face, button nose, and crinkling eyes may greet you anywhere from an athletic field to a swanky tea. Her frequent flares of temper are accompanied by sarcastic gems which she passes off with a disarming grin. Her boyish figure is always attired in the latest feminine fashions. Behind that vital face lies the sensitive, artistic mind which produced those very original cartoons and adverf tisements which gained for her the joint editorship ofthe Art Board of the SEMINARIA, and very well has she performed her task. HELEN ROCKWELL Rockies low voice and slurring enunciation puz' zle her companions who, perforce, listen attentively. Qften fooled by her serious countenance, en- lightened by her wistful brown eyes and expressive mouth, one is surprised by her occasional sardonic humor. Although Step'n Fetchfitfy, Helen in- evitably completes an undertaking creditablyee witness her work as SEMINARXA cofeditor of Art. Her repertory of jokes and songs, her hilarious take- offs, both by word and gesture, coupled with her warm but undemonstrative friendliness, make her a beguiling companion indeed. sgEhMINgAI1IA V19A4Q g 63 VIRGINIA ROOT r Ginny's pet hates are being misfcalled Martha, and having to endure odd pronunciations of her surf name. Her bestfknown ability is looking as if she agreed with you, with sound effects for accentg her hestfknown rendezvous are Young Peoples', or her own private kindergarten, or cruising around Lake Erie while eating hamburgers and communing with the fishes. But ofcourse we will remember Ginny's most astounding achievementfGETTING OUT OF GYM FOR FOUR YEARS WITH A GOOD EXCUSE!! CSorry, she's got it patentedj ALLISON Rosa Allison's acrobatics in spelling are amazing when contrasted with the extraordinary wealth of in- formation, gleaned from hundreds of books, which she brings to class. Her talent for literary chef' d'oeuvres, and her enjoyment of poetry and paint' ing might seem to indicate a temperamental artist, but tempered with a realism and sense of fun, they make her an interesting individual. Allison's inf tense dislike of tunics and gym, and her love of R Wuthering Heights show the triumph of the l romantic in her nature. MARGRET SCOTT The cuddly type, Peg cuts a figure eight in the classroom as well as on the rink. An authority on philosophy, she combines that innocent look with a sense of humor. When she says something out loud, it is usually worth listening to, but when she uses those talkative eyesf-swatch out! Her collec- tion of perfume bottles and equally fantastic but engaging hats, to say nothing of those enormous purses, make life more interesting. Don't let that cherubic face fool you-back of the pug nose, the brain! I 64 sEM1NAR'iA 1942 SALLY ANN SELLECK Blithe Sally combines with a capacity for work, an easy adaptability to different jokes. Whatsoever she tries her hand at is done thoroughly, be it hockey, knitting Cthis year she learned to turn the heel of a sockj, or playing the piano from which she evokes classics with a sprinkling of swing. Always on the bounce from one occupation to the next, she is recognized everywhere for her mischievous gaiety, her embarrassing naivete, and her innumerable questions. PRISCILLA SMITH A bright red coat, dark hair, and a lovely profile fthat is Pris. She doesn't like excessive makeup, and practises what she believes. A gift for flattery just when it is needed, coupled with an easily' aroused temper lend variety to life with Priscilla. Although she views with friendly interest all happenings, she sometimes hangs on stubbornly to adverse opinions, and then she speaks her mind with a brisk voice and snapping eyes. Despite these hot and cold outbursts, her sunny charm and gay smile have won her many friends. JUNE STAFFORD Pert and saucy june dehnitely prefers hand' tooled eyebrows, extravagant hairfdos Cfrom up' swept to featherfcutj, kneeflength sweaters and light blue convertibles to the Seminary tunic and calisthenics. Small and quick Cremember her prancf ing Irish jig?j, she has a rare gift for mimicry that is equal to a thick brogue or Brooklynese. Always conf siderate and loyal, and efficient, her joyous laughter in descending scale and her fastidious manners are recognized and heartily appreciated by students and faculty alike. SEMINARIA 17042 65 BARBARA STREBEL The languid stance, the floppy bangs, and the turtleflidded eyes, all of them the furnishings of one damsel, would be surprising enough even if one clidn't know that behind this glamourous veneer hides Strebie. Her expressions are tidfbits-and who hasn't heard them floating down the hall in the wake of that extremely individual walk. Never Cif she can help itj on the sports Held, and seldom Cin fact hardly everj burning the midnight oil, Streb's knowledge is gathered largely from fields neither athletic nor scholastic. BARBARA SWEET Proof of Barb's popularity lies in her election to the class vicefpresidency, an office she has filled very well. Her bouncing upfandfdown gait as well as her ceaseless hand gestures can be recognized from afar. Babra's remarks are always accompanied by giggles which may grow into hysterics over nothing at all. She has the nrt of making others happy by doing and saying the right thing at the right time, in Hict, her chief attractions are her happy heart, genuine sympathy, and newlyfeut bangs. SHIRLEY TAYLOR Three years ago, Shirley slid into our class bring' ing her slow drawl from Colorado. She made no noisy splash, but eased herself into Seminary life endearing herself to us by her soft tranquillity. Her low tones, direct manner, and erect carriage give her an air of dependability, and her histrionic ability was proved by her Hnished interpretation of Paddy Clancy in the senior play. Only a farfaway A look in her eyes and an occasional dotter for daughter remind us that Shirley wasn't always one of us, as she now truly is. SEMINARIA 1942 KATHLEEN TIFTICKJIAN From shy braids to sophisticated pompadour, K. T.'s appearance has changed much in four years, but not that staggering average which follows her still. Kate pays for those laurels though with hours of studyg but that study doesn't keep her from gadf ding about in the T's station wagon. We envy not only her scholastic ability but also her priority on luxurious lashes. We do not envy but wish her all success in her chosen Held of Latin, we know she'll make a Hne teacher, for Kathleen gets what she goes after! WENDY WADSWORTH Grandmother saysfu Yes, that is Wendy talk' ing, her short babyfsoft hair bouncing as she nods her head decisively to emphasize her words spoken in a breathless voice that has never learned to whisper. Her dark eyes open wide as she tells us, too often, the absolute truthf-no halffway honesty for Wendy. Friendly as a puppy and joining in with her uproarious laugh when any fun is going on, Wendy shows a temper when she is balked, that is quick to rise, and as quick to subside. BETH WHITLHER Our jacket captain is perhaps the most energetic athlete in school, practically living in a gym tunic. Past master of the trombone, Beth is now setting out to master the violin, and a real animal lover, she varies her pets from snakes to goats. Frank and open' minded, she will try anything once and, kind to a fault, she worries when she can't arrange sports to please everybody. Beth is so sensitive to other peof ple's moods, that one can usually tell by her looks, the dispositions of her friends. SEMINARIA 1042 67 JUDY WILHELM ' Happen you are feeling blue, Judy's warm smile is very welcome. You'll often find her, with her spidery legs wound around a chair, the centre of a group of adoring freshmen. She wears a baggy sweater and whips her wild mane, and she gets away with it admirably. Other times she is equally at home in the study hall wearing her responsibility with senior dignity and confidently exercising her presidential authority to subdue noisy groups. Afhible and laughable, Judy remains an imperturb- able person you just can't help liking. BETTY WILLIAMS When we think of infectious whoops of laughter, an uncontrollable blush, and armfuls of silver bracelets, we think of Betty. Modishly dressed and always well-groomed, her clothes have been a topic of admiration, imitation, and conversation through all or her four years at the Seminary. The en' thusiasm with which Betty relates the latest gossip, and the eagerness with which she listens to still more, are direct methods of achieving a warm wel' come in any group. POSTfGRADUATE BETTY Lou HAMPTON One of auburnfhaired Betty's favorite pastimes is exchanging weather reports with Florida fans, for she came to Seminary this year from sunny Calif fornia. She also proudly declares that she had never seen snow, except on mountains, until she reached Buffalo, and then had to buy a winter coat. Her extremely professional art work is a source of envy to the many friends she has made with the aid of her gay smile and that low musical voice with the slight western twang.
