According to her sign she has a choice of being one of the strongest or weakest people in the world. So far she is one of the strongest-both in brains and social life. Her favorite occupation is honeymoon bridge, and it takes more than an ordinary class to stop Gwenivere as she is sometimes called by Mrs Lister. It is not known whether this game revives past memories or conjures up future thoughts concerning her rather un-private social life. However, when the cards are dispensed witli, Gwen be- comes one of the fortunate souls gifted with that precious, all too scarce, gray matter. ln chemistry one day, though, it went on a vacation, for Gwen ceased to remember that liquids can boil over. The hydrochloric acid plus a few other ingredients made ll delightful pop, and splattcred all over on that fateful occasion. She was a member of the Property Committee the first semester and on the Fine Arts t'onnnittee in the spring. Gwen, or Stein as she is also known, took the pnrt of the fresh and rather nox cl Midge Towers in the Senior l'lay :ind had everyone marveling at her here- tofore unknown ability. ,gg-

Under the sign of Scorpio, Cynthia Bruce saw New York City for the first lime. By degrees she traveled westward and eventually arrived in Seattle, at the Helen Bush school. Up until this year, Cynthia was in the class of '46, bttt with a sudden burst of speed and energy combined with taking two courses in English at once, she became a member of the class of '45. At Gracetnent, where she boarded with the rest of the seniors, Cynthia was probably best known for her flawless excuses, or perhaps one should say her time spent in concocting perfect excuses. :Xt school she was easily identified by her red and white saddle shoes ttntil they turned light brown in March, lt is rumored that this change of color was brought about by the Court which thought brown was more becoming with the Hush uniform. According to Scorpio Cynthia should be especially fond of outdoor sports and travel. Her affections for the former, however, are not very great although she has been known to indulge in a game of tennis. As for the travel end, Cynthia herself says she loves it. ln fact it is her hobby and next to graduating is her favorite occupation.

Like George Washington, Joan Frayn was born on Feb, ZZ under l'isces ,the sign of the lfish. The horoscope cast fer those born under this sign says that they make good friends, and this quality is certainly true in joan's case. However, the part of the horoscope which states that she is essentially lazy certainly does not hold true, for besides being the hard-working editor of this year's TYKOF and having to chase after the printer, the engraver, and all the writers who did not get their material in by the deadline, she spent hours on the Rambler staff last semester, seived on the fourt for the third time this semester, and was the captain of the Senior Basketball team, playing both guard and forward, to the dismay of the opposing teams. Joan is amply blessed with brains, and she made up the other half of the exclusive trig class. Her dramatic talents were exereised as the corpse in the Senior play, and she helped handle the financial end of The Sinister House well. -Ioan is a wliizz at tennis and badminton as well as the other sports she takes part in Cbaseball, volley ball, et all, and true to the sign of the Fish, she likes to sail. Smith is where joan is bound next year, but as yet she has not decided in what field she is going to major. -233
