Back row: Mrs. Whiton, Mrs. Ballaine. The boarders live up the hill from school, at Taylor Hall, a few at Kenyon Hall, and the 7th and Sth grades at the Annex. Taylor Hall is a big rambling, pleasant house that is probably kept surprised most of the time by the activities of its occupants, who do numerous and astonishing things. This year we're under the capable hands of Mrs. Nora Whiton at Taylor Hall and Mrs. Sally Ingham at the Annex.

You dis- cover lots of hidden talents like Geneva Spaulding's singing, Dor- othy Wall's piano playing, Pat Ke1ly's hula and lots of others. A boarder learns things like cooperation with others and how to iron her blouse in the laundry room without burning it. Somehow the boarders survive epidemics of stomach flu and Frank Sinatra crazes, drown their woes in a coke at the drugstore and take pic- tures of everything possible. To follow the lives of the boarders you'd have to be pretty active and on the go from breakfast to evening study. Even then you'd be lost in a maze of dramatics, after-school sports, the 1090 Club and numerous other things. It's really been fun and very in- teresting to say the least. Just ask any Boarder!
