We all love Evie BelinoWitz's nose, With Fischer's smile We'd surely pose Peaches and cream, that's our lac, A figure Audrey does not lack. Carla has That Cosmopolitan Look, And Pat Kelsey can memorize a book. For legs, with Fong Fong We can't And neither with Natalie's tiny feet. When Mosher laughs We all join in, Our potential actress is lewel Finn. Happy leads the class in sports, Emily is never out of sorts. Betty Ketcham's piano is a treat, And loy's manner is so sweet.

SENIOR Glafu lla Now, Miss Cornfield, will you tell me the secret of your success? You Were excellent as Tizzie, in Tin Can Alley! Could it be the influence of your high school career? Well, I was very interested in a dramatic course I took in my high school days. Not really a dramatic course, odd name, Dance Major. How well I remember! Dance Major! Funny, we had a course like that at the school I attended, Mary Burnham. Don't tell me . . . but . . . I thought I recognized you! Aren't you Pat? ' Marjie! Imagine your interviewing me for 'The Timesl' Brings back those days at Burnham! How've you been? Never mind that! Grab your coat, there's a reception at the Gabey's, You remember Dot, don't you? Well, she's famous now, three sets of triplets! The entertainment will be good. Betty accompanies Cynthia and Gretl. They are touring the states now, Billy Rose is their manager. Later on we are going to the grand premiere of 'Incisionf Bunny's production, starring jewel, lane, Sally, Cozy and Nat. Burnham gals have done well, it seems! l..et's be on our way. CLater at Dot's and Marty's. Dot is dumping the dirtl . . . and what's more, Arthur Murray will be here as soon as he has finished taking a dancing lesson from Teeter. You remember Brownie, my former roommate, don't you? She'll be over as soon as she picks up the Nobel Prize. Shes just perfected a cure for urgaphobia, for which Miss Fuller is duly grateful. Speaking of this and that, did you know that Natalie and Lynn are trying to push a bill through Congress allowing Prep school girls to Come and go as they please! Carla has begun her campaign to improve French-American relations. This you'll enjoy, girls. Conkie and Maggie have just completed the training of 'StelIe, Ir.', their protege pony. I hear he is now eligible to enter the races at Sara'- toga. judy is up against protest. It seems the public does not go for her series of lectures, 'why we need cleaner transportation from Northampton to Springfield' She's a social worker now. Wait until you hear! Halliwell has just announced her engagement to one of her psychology students. His name, it seems, is George, and he knows all the answers! The Swenson's daughter, Matilda, has been chosen sweetheart of the boys at N.Y.M.A., which is run by the Pohle's now. Stevie has gotten herself a new hat, which is the cause of rnany a feminine flutter. Happy is nursing girls back to normal at the Burnham infirmary, and has just heard from Lucy, who is keeping medical records for Concord's seven busiest doctors. Oh! Did you hear about Liz? She and Enstien are working hand in hand on some secret theory. Mary and Dexter now enjoy the tea in China, but are finding chop sticks rather difficult to manipulate! They say the Soldiers of Fortune are dashing! Evie, joy and Mimi run the State Street Fruit Store now, and Ie-anne teaches dance tech- niques. But, 'nuff said! Come, or we'll be late for the play. We're meeting Evie, Ed, Teddy and Eddie there! Stop, you're confusing us! Let us be gone. 42
