lunior Glass Tile Spirit of 747 September, l944, found us launching en masse into Burton, the former men's dorm. We weren't alone, for some sophs, seniors and transfers also managed to help us confuse Burton's inner sanctum. What the dressers thought of perfume bottles instead of shaving lotion we leave to posterity to uncover. lt didn't take much to make us realize that as upper classmen we had much more to do, that along with new privileges came new responsibilities. So we worked hard that the customary contributions of the junior year might come out as scheduled. The junior heads assumed their mother roles, others slaved over the ALGOL, and we all amused the campus with our new creation, the lunior-led Maize Daze which substituted for the homecoming activities. Strains of We're Working Our Way Through College, Sophisticated Swing, and Butch Crabb's unforgettable operatic solo permeated the campus so thoroughly that we felt quite proud of the feat. Then the Patchiv, alias the junior carnival, came onto the scene. The traditional concessions, in addi- tion to the horror house and the unique auctioning of the faculty for night club dates, helped the finan- cial situation immeasurably for the onrushing, in- evitable IS. 5.

MARY WELLERefA chip off the old block, Mary is graduating in the footsteps of her grandmother Cclass of '85l and her mother Cclass of 'l6J. She's done right well, too, capturing honors in her major, geog- raphy. Her friends' pet name for her is Tom, which may have developed after her summers work in the shipyards. BARBARA WHITAKER-Whit's Carleton life has been mostly highlightsffrom ushering at the IS, to the part of Wilt in CBS, to being Co-op chairman this year, to her diamond. She claims she must have left footprints in the ALGOL office where she made the good book of '44 pay as co-business manager. MARIAN LOUTSE WHITE-Curly-haired ludy transe ferred her junior year from New York University. She hides her infectious grin behind the name of Marian Louise and pretends she likes sleeping better than writing, which isn't so, as anyone can tell from her MS contributions and that English major. BARBARA WOODe-Barby's laugh has been fun for Carleton. She's just as well known for her choir solos as for her tennis playing, and has been junior head and WAA cabinet member in '42 and '43. Until Bernie comes home and adds another ring to her left hand, she'll turn her public health major into a career in physiotherapy. NANCY WRlGHTfeNance successively edited the feature and senior sections for the ALGOL, headed the first publicity committee, and labored to enlighten the froshfsee her Women's League Handbook. Her delightful anecdotes feature Richardson, juniorehead- ing at Wilson, and an exquisite ring. ELIZABETH YNTEMA-Yntie and the Tea Room look well together. She spent two of her Carleton years as a waiter both behind and in front of the counter. Sports and a position on the WAA board for three years boosted her into the role of WAA President her senior year. 'X X.: The winter seemed long as dozens of tired legs carried dozens of heavy boots over the slippery pig- paths winding through the snow. Suddenly the sun came out and it was spring again. The Cannon River rose to its usual heights. The many new own- ers of diamond rings could take off their mittens with- out freezing their fingers. The rains came and with them came the straight hair and braids with an air of abandon. The days seemed to break into a run, pause a minute for May Pete and suddenly pull up breathlessly at lune 4th when 84 more people owed their annual dues to the Alumni Association. This is the only class of l945 that Carleton will ever have whether they've liked it or not. lt's taken four years for Carleton to get used to us and for us to get used to Carleton and now it's time to get used to someplace else. This is where we came in. This is 1945. PAGE 23

Rucker, lensen, Howe, Rosemeier, Badger, Starr Yes, the IS did get here, on February 24, to be exact. We wanted it to be remembered in spite of necessary changes so we delivered it as planned-- formal dinner and dance for all juniors and seniors. After the banquet in the Tea Boom we danced to Bert Lindstrom's music in Great Hall. CBS, re-organized to work in cooperation with the faculty, set its Wheels rolling under the direction of lean Thorn, and on March 24, the spectators again sat before the lights and scenes of Carleton'on-the- stage. All of this happened to us in one short year that almost seemed shorter than the rest, and we are ready to go ahead to all that is offered to us the next and last year. 5 Oswald, B.
