The Seniors Said HELEN DANIELS-Bimsy has filled her four years with studying, working, and fun, but found time to make many friends and preside over the Cosmopol- itan club. Born in China, the daughter of a medical missionary, Bimsy hopes to follow in her father's footsteps. SHIRLEY DANKERS-Perhaps if Shirl had gone to bed nights, she could have gotten up to make her eight o'clocks on time. But being late to classes didn't seem to handicap her in getting good grades. Her rnain interest after graduation is marriage. NANCY DEVONALD-ln spite of the fact that her record shows a history major, Devie really deserves a BA. in community living after spending her last two years with five roommates. She's made her mark by doing unusual things at Carleton-one of the first women to fly here and one of the first to wait in the Tea Room. ARLEEN EHNEAShe's Ehn-the-Bean to all her friends-which means most everyone in the class of '45, Dorothy Dix of the campus, she's settled every- thing from what to feed your dog to how to get HIM to propose. Easygoing Ehne trots to the Nursery school for some of her happiest hours with my little kiddies. NANCY GALE-There's never a dull moment when Nance is around. She hasn't been VERY busy, winding up her senior year by being head waiter of Burton, editor of the CARLETONIAN, president of Severence, and member of Pi Delta Epsilon and Who's Who. Highlight of her college life: the '44 F all formal-just ask Bill. CORNELIUS GILLAM-Neil will graduate two years before his class. Taking a profuse number of courses and getting A's in practically all, he has not neg- lected extras: a proctor, co-chairman of campus Re- publican committee, member of Delta Sigma Rho, debater-and naturally a Who's Whoer. SALLY GORROWwDistinctive Sal was the girl with the dozens of identification bracelets and monogram- med sweaters, the girl who could quip incessantly with ne'er a smile, and one for whom the Meteorol- ogy unit did more than block the Way with their marching. She graduated in Ianuary with Wedding bells ringing in her ears. PAGE 15 MARILYNNE GREENE-May Pete day is a busy day for Greene-she takes prizes in the Horse Show and then she stars in the May Fete. She keeps in prac- tice the rest of the year as member of Dance club and the Saddle club. She was decorations chair- man for the Iunior Carnival too.

'A 1? va... 'Q Somehow in the room drawing of the previous spring, 211 Severance had become the presidential suite with the influx of the gavel-girls of the CSA, Women's League, and YWCA. The usual quota of furniture plus relics from other years found the five occupants living so close that they combed each other's hair by mistake, After much experimentation they found that by hanging the footstool out the win- dow, Dodie could get in to see her roommates, and by hanging Dodie out the window they could install a telephone. They let her come in at night too. Before many weeks had passed, it was easy to pick seniorial dignity from the rest of the student body. No one else wore pre-War saddle shoes with adhesive tape holding on the soles. No one else had two-tone tweed coats with one tone gone and the exclusive zip-in, fall-out lining. They could also be identified by the fact that at mail time when PAGE 14 ANN CARRELkCarleton has meant a lot of things to Anne-sfdusk through the chapel windows, sunsets from Burton, fun in We're Rushedu and ice skates which she still can't stand on. Annie's mea to Carleton too, especially on and off stage in as the friendly, indispensable drama major. MARY COOK--Petie of the auburn hair has one of those striking personalities that Carleton will long remember. Her grades might make her out as a book-worm, but we know better. She's always on the spot where there is any excitement, and has kept things of the picnic variety happening for four years. nt a lot Nourse IANET COOPERfCoop may be small, but what a wallop she packs in everything she does. IS usher, Homecoming Queen, junior headejust some of the better skeletons in her closet. She refers to life in Gridley gym after the Dean Lodge fire as interest- ing, Our fighting Carls thank her, too, for their CARLETONIANS. IANE CRAWFORD-lane began a journalists career as class editor of the '43 ALGOL and member of the CARLETONIAN staff, building up to the worthy co- editorship of the ALGOL and membership in Pi Delta Epsilon and Publications Board in '44. lane has taken in the social side, too, with Iackffnumber one memory being the IS. IEAN CUMMlNSf Well, hello there -it's Cummie again with her infectious smile and neverftoo-busy air. She climaxed four years of extras by heading Soc club and SWlCfeno wonder she's a Who's Whoer. She is one of those who called Richardson 1-louse home for eight fun-packed months. ELLEN CURRAYeEllen, known to all as Curray-the- Surrey or Block-that-Mouse , has made a flash through Carleton in three years trailing a soc major behind her. After a quiet year on fourth Burton, she's ready for a stab at the New York's under- privileged, until Bud comes home. A Lull in the Battle of 211 if 's..i .fl

To Talk of whiny Things . . . 'K A X t I gg. MARY LOUISE GRAY-Lou has been greeting fresh- men ever since she was one herself-first as chair- man of the sophomore welcoming committee, then junior head at Wilson House, and this year as cam- pus sister chairman. Richardson House and the sophomore year rank tops in her estimation. MARY LOUISE GRIFFIN-Besides being the girl half of Mrs. Griffin's twins, Meese claims fame by being an old Dean Lodger, a member of Booker's bridal party, and the unconventional back waiter in Burton for '44-45. Psychology is her field and post-gradua- tion plans are for personnel-administration work. MARY VIRGINIA GROTH- Smooth is the word for Ginny Groth, who fitted right in with the sophistica- tion of Severance. A sophomore IS usher, a junior head, service chairman of SWIC, Y finance chair- maniejust a bit o' Ginny. On the side it's just one hand of bridge ! PHYLLIS-CLAIRE HEDEEN-Phil transferred to Carle- ton in her sophomore year and immediately took over in the art department. Paints and palettes fas- cinate her so much that she majored in art and plans to go on to post-graduate work. Riding and skiing might account for her frequent trips to the infirmary. RUTH MARIE HENDRICKSON-With an uncanny ability to stay calm under any situation, Hendrick kept cool even at the Dean Lodge fire when she found she was president of an ash heap. She kept busy for four years with the Winter Carnival, IS, Women's League, Sociology club, and as treasurer of CSA. DAVID HERRERAfSouth America has sent us some smooth examples of Latin charm, Dave being one of these. He's quite the linguist, too, speaking English, French, and Spanish fluently. He's doing graduate work in English as a special student, having already graduated from Bogata, Colombia in philology and languages. PI-IYLLIS HUGHES-Whether she's whipping up an Easter bonnet or arranging for junior carnival dec- orations Phyl's full of ideas. She's been cabin chair- man, Co-op faculty-student coordinator, chairman of the art interest group, member of the Women's League cabinet, ALGOL writer, and junior head. PAGE I6 IEANETTE IAYNES-With her tongue in her cheek, a bee in her bonnet, and a diamond on her third left, this elfin dynamo proves she was one of C.C.'s busiest. Look at her list-director of CBS '44, creator and head of Committee managing editor of CARLETONIAN '44-45, and member of MS staff '43 and '45,
