helllarh None of us, of course, will miss jean Foltis's debut at the Metropolitan Opera House this coming season as Marguerite in Gounod's Faust . Millicent Dimmich has deserted her career as a nurse to assume domestic duties in Pennsylvania. Still maintaining their roles as comedians, Isabel Dizzy Smith and Ruth Ru-eth Perry have attained national fame on the Kill-or-Cure Iilea Soap Hour. Upon Miss Couch's return to the stage, Mildred Vey is stepping in as dramatic coach at Centenary. Elnora Breithaupt has become a notable fashion expert, and is at present in England as fashion editor of I-Iarper's Bazaar. Our ladies of leisureu, Jessie DeVoe and Adelaide Wolfe, are soiourning in Florida for a few months after having returned from an air trip to the wilds of Africa where they spent their time hunting all sorts of wild game. Deserting her work in the held of education, Caroline Ford has refused a position as Dean of Women at Mount Holyoke to pursue a social life in Army circles. Millwood Lambert has unintentionally stolen the spotlight from Mrs. Dionne hy presenting America with hve little beauties, all displaying fiery red hair. Mary Louise jones, alias Hoover , has fulfilled our expectations by obtaining the position of chief Librarian at the New York Public Library. Also in the great metropolitan area is Ruth Mortensen, who is ably serving Bonwit Teller as buyer. Her trips abroad make it difficult to keep an accurate account on her whereabouts. Mary Harper Tewksbury has returned from furthering her education in England, and anticipates settling down to a quiet life in a recently obtained pent-house on Park Avenue. Phyllis Ecker is still displaying her dramatic ability on Broadway, starring at the present time in the huge success, Why Girls Leave Horne . Betty I-Ievenor was last reported starting on a cruise around the South Sea Islands on her yacht, the S. S. Lafayette. It is rumored that this is her honeymoon trip, but of course, we can't say for certain. Dorothy Lyons Smith continued her study of Child Psychology after leaving Cen- tenary, and is now using it to a practical advantage on her own crop of future presidents. Marty Woitscheck has left her position as private secretary to take up residence in London, England. The casual factor seems to be a husband engaged in the Diplomatic Service. Priscilla Ritter is kept busy being a House Mother at a Sorority house at Rollins Col- lege, Florida. The chemistry field is pretty fortunate in having Margaret Brunn as one of its work- ers. She has proved something-or-other, but don't ask me, for I never did pass the course! Mary Elizabeth Robson is kept busy supplying the New York Woman Shop with her own creations and designs of knitted suits and dresses. Martha Rice is still traveling around the world. When last heard from she was hav- ing a wonderful time on the Riviera. At Cedar Crest College, not far from our Alma Mater, Winifred Chamberlain is enjoying her work as Counsellor. Dorothy Roy is earning a tremendous salary at Lord and Taylors, I hear, and is saving most of it for a certain step she will take very shortly. Willie Nordstrom, from the latest reports, is looking very excited. We wonder on what branch of the Jones' Tree she will hang her hatl The information I obtained from Mrs. Trevorrow was a great source of satisfaction to me. I had always thought the Class of 1937 unusually capable and progressive, and was naturally elated to learn that our hopes and plans had successfully materialized.

l l he M l l 'lIomorrow, and tomorrow, and tomorrow-- 1947 Have you ever had the urge to go back ten long years? Well, I have, and I just couldn't resist that feeling any longer. I tore back to Centenary and hustled to Mrs. Trevorrow's ofhce. The after-dinner rush was on, and so I patiently awaited my turn, as usual. Mrs. Trevorrow escorted me to her apartment and we picked up the threads as we had left them years ago, and followed each girl's accomplishments to date: Remember the excitement Elsie Bomhoff's engagement caused? Now she and Presi- dent Cornell are successfully guiding students of their Alma Mater through college years. Speaking of colleges, Josephine Gernert has attained eminence as a faculty member of Vassar.

And still Ugadding about town are Bertina Hibson and Anne Stimson. Their bachelorette apartment will soon be vacated for two excellent reasons. Mrs. Trevorrow mentioned that Mildred Stelter has entered her training period in preparation for the Olympic Swimming Team. Isabelle Stelter is considering deserting her army duties to accompany her sister. Rose Iorio has deservingly been promoted to an executive position in the New York Life Insurance Company. In the same company, Genevieve Scheffield is successfully employed as the head physician. Having recently completed her assignments in China, Constance Koss has returned for renewal of assignments with the United Press. Wliat we would term a difficult task would be to interview Elaine Braun, now a much sought-after artist's model. A little Army, belonging to none other thanjthe former jean Favor, has been imported for a short visit to the United States. Proving her true altruistic qualities, Margaret Mae Terhune has become prominent in the field of Social Service. Strong competition for Katherine Gibbs has been inaugurated by Lyndall Potter's and Winifred Pearce's new Business College in New York City where many competent secre- taries are being trained. Celia Redman's little girl is following in her mother's footsteps in that she is attending Centenary between week-ends at Lafayette. Personifying domestic accomplishments, Anne McClave is happily situated in her country home, adding in no small way to the population of Connecticut. Many future orators are being educated under the skillful direction of Ruth Den- man in the famous Primary Elocution School in New York City.
