THE BLUE MOGN . EDYTHE RODGERS Edie Overbrook, Pa. Entered '25 Secretary Senior Class '25-'26 Non-Resident Business Manager of 'LThe Blue Moonly '25-'26 Blue Team '26 To be famous when young is the fortune of the gods. ONG blonde curls, a stiff sea green tulle skirt, a charming Pierrette. Faintly grey hair, a dark gown, a dignified matron, Mrs. Briggs. What ? Oh, who is this Pierrette and this lkirs. Briggs? Never heard of them before. Don't be silly, never heard of them before. Surely youlve heard of our talented and sweet classmate, Edythe. Well, think hard, and you'll realize that Edythe por- trayed both Pierrette and hlrs. Briggs in two plays that were presented on Dramatic Night and portrayed them beautifully. In fact, Edythe is one of our true artists, that is, one of the true artists of the Class of '26, and that's not an exaggeration, either. YVe feel confident that we will be very proud of Edythe in a short time. Not only has she the necessary dramatic ability, but she has all the other requisites-a slim and graceful figure, and a charming personality. Also, that greatly envied quality of versatility, which is shown further by the capable Secretary of the Class that she proved herself to be. And there is not one of her studies that is neglected, for Edythe is a most earnest and conscientious student. Speaking of studies, we mustn't forget to mention geometry. Edythe certainly is a wonder at figuring out the whys and wherefores of squares and circles, and we don't mean maybe. Not only is Edythe popular in her class, but also in another world of say-Pennsylvania and Harvard, or wherever else she pleased to be. IMPRESSIONISTIC PICTURE: A bunch of balloons.

THE BLUE MOON VIRGINIA HANDLEY ffcinll New York City Entered '25 Vice-President Senior Class '25-'26 Hockey Team '25-'26 Assistant Society Editor The Blue Moon '25-'26 Captain Gold Team '26 The reason firm, the temperate will, Endurance, foresight, strength and skill. gg REMEMBER one night when Dick-, our Gin in a confidential mood. It gets to be sort of a game when Gin gets to feeling that way, if tonight's moonlight will be conducive to thinking of Dick, or George, or Stew, or--well, what's the use of even trying to mention all the numerous swains from Kazoo-or any place else. But please don't gather the impression that Gin is romantically inclined all the time, far from it. Sometimes we have a true New York cynic Qwhatever that isl, sometimes we have a sweet, simple schoolgirl Qno fair laughing, because there really are somej, and then again we have a person engaged in the very mundane occupation of vowing earnestly three, or is it four, times a day to diet tomorrow. However, Gin always concludes, What's a pound or two among friends, and everyone likes her just the same, so why worry? There's not a thing Gin can't do from being a facial expert, and knowing more Latin than even old Virgil himself, to wielding a mighty tennis racket and playing Marcheta on the piano. Anyone that hasn't heard Gin play Marcheta has missed one of the pitifully pathetic and heart-tending recitals being given in the musical world. A remarkable resemblance has been discovered between Gin and a Princess of Greece at present engaged in showing off the newest Parisian frocks fno, we mean the Princess, sillyj. Nevertheless, perhaps Gin can live it down. Thank- ing you for your kind attention, ladies and gentlemen, may I add a few words in clos- ing to the effect that Gin's Spanish will enable her to capture at least a Grandee of Spain. God bless her! Long may she wave! IMPRESSIONISTIC PICTURE! A Chinese lacquered pergoda. Picnics in the woods. Paul Whiteman. Eleven

THE BLUE MOON DOROTHY JOY LEDOGAR HDotI! Merion, Pa. Secretary junior Class '24-'25 Treasurer Senior Class '25-'26 Society Editor of The Blue Moon '25-'26 Gold Team '26 A nd her face so fair, Stirred with a dream, as rose leave: W ith the air. HO has big brown eyes, black hair, baby stare, petite figure, that schoolgirl complexion ? Yes, you've guessed right-none other than Dot. She was voted the prettiest girl in the Senior Class, and we all agree that she is. We cer- tainly do envy Dot her figure and the way she wears clothes-well, she just takes the prize. Imagine not having to worry about what you eat for fear it might make you fat! Dot is Treasurer of the Senior Class, and she fills the position admirably. If the dues are not paid on time Dot goes right out after the offender and makes her not only pay the dues, but the interest which has accrued. That's the kind of a Treasurer to be. Dottie certainly knows how to do things wright.' Dot was a boarder last year, but for some unknown reason she deserted our ranks this year to join the ranks of day pupils. I imagine that if we wanted to try hard enough to find some reasons for this change we would find that Penn dances and things are very important. Did you ever ask Dot what she was going to do next year? Well, you would probably get the same answer as we did, I don't know. Even if you don't, Dottie, we bet we could make a pretty good guess. Good luck and best wishes in whatever you may do. J IMPREssioN1s'rIc PICTURE: - A portrait by Zuloga. Peacocks on a marble terrace. VVorn-out silver slippers. Thirteen
