Hang o'er her courser's head with eager speed, And earth rolls back beneath the flying steed. lf there had been a sign of a horse in the horoscope, Dorothy Barrett would certainly have been born under it. As it was, though, the nearest she could come tv that particular animal was Leo, the lion, The stars do say, however, that Leo women make good nurses when they are in sympathy with their patients. This could be changed in lDorothy's case to say Leo ladies make excellent horse-women when great horse lovers. Besides winning numerous ribbons, a good many blue ones at that, she has the distinction of being one of the few women sulky drivers of the northwest. For the uninitiated this means that Barrett can drive a horse and two-wheeled cart like a jehu. lJorothy's talents are not all confined to horses and buugies. As Tony Trent, the young news reporter, in Sinister l-louse, she turned in an excellent per- formance. More than one envious person was heard to comment on her wonderful figure. lt should be mentioned now that the figure won her a part-time modeling job at Frederick and Nelson last summer. During the first semester Barrett was chairman of the Property Committee and did much to help improve the looks of the school, The Social Committee received her services the second semester.

Barbara Barrett, one of the three new additions to the senior class last fall, brought with her a wonderful sense of humor which is characteristic of people born under the sign of Libra. She came from Blaine, VVashington, not only the best town in the west, but the best in the world, to join eleven other seniors at Gracemont for the school year. Another Libra asset which she possesses is gray matter. Because of this she was one of the fortunate lone survivors of a Lister special, and was denied the questionable privilege of returning to school one Saturday for a morning of study. lt should be mentioned here that Barbara is not all brains. She is a first class jitterbugger too. As Mrs. llirks, the tough housekeeper, in the Senior Play, li tthat is her nicknamej proved her ability along dramatic lines. During the second semester, Barbara was a member of the Publications Committee. She was most welcome because a good typist was very much in demand. ln fact, if it had not been for her willing and well trained fingers. the second semester Ramblers might not have always appeared on schedule.

Where order in variety we see, And where, though all things differ, all agree. Another Libra-ite is June Beck who is more commonly known as the Donut Debt Collector. As is always the case, annuals must be paid for, and to raise and keep track of funds is a nice, juicy job for anyone with energy and a small degree, at least, of calculating genius. Immediately June was elected to fill the post. Her first large-scale undertaking concerned the sale of donuts to both upper and lower schools each week. She did a magnificent job, and at the end of the year over one hundred dollars-more than any senior class had ever turned in before from this particular project-had been collected. Nearly all the credit for this stupendous achievement goes to June because the only help she really had was in the selling of the donuts, Another bit of claim to fame she has is her speaking voice. During her four years at Bush, june has pleased many audiences. When the class of '45 were juniors, she took the part of Narrator in the Christmas play and was a great success. Not known to too many people is Iune's accordion ability. Her daily dis- appearances during sixth period were for the purpose of practicing at Gracemont. She had to do it then because her roommates did not think they could stand such invigorating music at 6 a. m. every day. M20,
