IN MEMORY OF Death cares not for youth, nor youth's ambition, and thus it snuffed out the life of a beloved school- mate and friend, Joy Eidson. Her years were short, yet they were lengthened as she brought the happiness and casual carefreeness that can only be associated with a young girl. Her capacity for undaunted humor, and a personality which was her trademark, followed her and grew with every day of her life. Life is so short, yet hers was shortened as she had only begun to discover life, a child on the threshold of adulthood. with Joy's death, we have all come to realize what joy she brought to each and every- one who had met her.
