i ii if ' I Shooting Ahead Have you seen the new magazine made up entirely of candid pictures of important women? We have just received a copy of the first issue and it might be interesting to turn the pages and see some of these people who make the news. The first picture that greets our eye is one of JACQUELYN BAVIER in her School of the Modernistic Dance where she teaches her pupils to trip the light fantastic to the accompaniment of all Benny Goodmans recordings. Speaking of music, here we see orchestra leader KAY CONOVER in front of her own swing band at GINNY RUMSEY'S newly opened night club. It is called Ye Late Hour and is quite the place to go. The next picture is of the domestic type-fln this we have the former IINI STEVENS and she must be trying to cook dinner. It is so smoky that it is hard to tell. Poor Bill! He has been looking so thin lately. Is this another revolution in Cuba? No, we understand that it is just because ALVAREZ is running for president. This picture shows her right in the thick of the fray with MARIAN HAIN helping her to pacify the howling mob. And guess who is leading the opposing party? You're rightfit is ELEANOR RENCKEN on a soap box. The next picture is of BETTY SCANTLEBURY in a starched white uniform that goes with her position as chief cook and menu planner at the Waldorf. And here is GEORGIANA PERKINS in her own drug store trying to invent a large 'coke' for a nickel so it won't take too much out of the profits. Now look at this picture-the latest studio portrait of business woman ANN PURSEL at her desk. She is now the president of her own company with HARRIET ZIMMERMAN as perfect secretary and co-stockholder. Now who are these four girls? Two are in riding clothes. Why, of course,-fit is WILLIE BROECKER and TUNE SCOVILLE, the foremost horsewomen in the world! and the business managers are JEAN FRASER and MARGARET MILZER. You don't suppose that one has to check up on the other? This is a good picture of an attractive young woman swinging down Park Avenue. It is PAT SWEENY going to her duplex apartment after several hours of writing to- morrow's editorial for The New York Times . Here is another young lady of the worldfthis time in a grass skirt, and it is LIL SPITZER on one of her annual jaunts to Hawaii. The next is a theatre program and we see that our young actress, LIZ HAVEY, is again starring in another Broadway hit called Love or a Career . On the same program in an advertisement is another lovely girlfyou will remember her as IEAN ROGERS. Since then, however, she has acquired a title and is posing for cigarette ads. Wfe next see PIP MCKEEVER-now the wife of that famous doctor. Look at all those children, too. It is your private kindergarten or the result of your course in Child Ps ch? Y The next picture was snapped just in time to catch WASHIE and PETZ tearing along one of the approved air-lanes in their new super-streamlined airplane. They have just broken the world's record for speed. VIRGINIA TAYLOR, we find, is now the chief of the Biology department in an experimental station and is running a little theatre group on the side. This next snap-shot was taken from the sport page. It shows us BARB MORRELL as the national golf championfHere we find her in her trophy room shining her latest cu . P The next picture is one of RUTH THIEL in her dress shop called Ye Smoothie One Dress Shoppe . We know that she makes monthly trips to Paris to get all the latest CREATIONS BY KLIE wjane has acquired a French accent-and is acknowledged to be the leading authority on clothes. Ninet y-frm 1'

TH1: HACK ff growing from the floor, and here is another picture of all of us doing The Big Appleu. W'e'll probably always remember our last year at Centenary synonymously with the Big Apple . Pictures of the various athletic activities reveal our class as carrying forward our reputation for versatility and outstanding successes. XX7e won the inter-class hockey game and hve of the members on the honorary basket ball team came from the class of '38, The Athletic Association, which has been unusually energetic this year, had Charlotte Gulliver as its president. A few snapshots come into view of the tennis tournament, and again they were seniors who carried away the honors. From these pictures it would seem that anything we turned our hand to we shone in--but we have the grace to bow our heads over our athletic record of our junior year. Not that we were completely routed, but we must admit that we placed second in a couple of events. More pictures of Mrs. Haring slaving away, trying to drill tap routine into our heads, or planning modern dance figures. Remember how in the winter we fussed because it was too cold to dress in gym uniforms and then in the spring it was too nice to be stuck in the gym? Wfill you ever forget the craze we all had for losing weight, by swimming madly up and down the pool for hours at a time. followed by a brisk game of ping pong and then a stroll down to the Carlon Shoppe where we would decide to go off our diet just this once ? Wfe must not neglect the pictures of our frantic efforts to obtain sun-tans in March. '1'here's one with several of the girls in the foreground blissfully sprawled in the sun's rays---but in the background is someone huddled in a fur coat! How anxiously we compared tans every hour and how we redoubled our efforts when someone seemed likely to get ahead of us in this roasting game. It was worth all the effort, though, when we arrived on the beach in early summer looking very brown and everyone else looking pale and seedy. And didnt that early tan look ultra with evening dresses? And now the last lap of pictures comes to view. The May Iiete, with Ruth Gooding as the first Centenary May Queen, surrounded by her beautiful court. Afterwards our senior dance, which brings a lump to our throat because it is so near to being our last dance. Cramming for those final horrors , june exams, and wearing our gowns to chapel. Then comes Baccalaureate, Last Vespers, Singing on the Steps. where we realize that now we are almost through. And last of all, the final picture, that shining goal toward which we have all been striving--f,Graduationl Yes, school days are over for almost all of us, but the friendships that we have made, and the memories that we have stored here at Centenary will be among our most valued possessions as we part to go our separate paths down Lifels highway.

'i ii' T1-112 ff Here is a telephoto picture from London, and if you look hard you will see that it is MARY LOU BOGERT, who is the correspondent for the New York Times. Hackettstown is no longer a mere village since the APGAR-BEATY reconstruction bill passed the Bi-Hackettstown Congress, and here is a snapshot of their first project! a dam in the Musconetcong. This photograph is one of money-maker VIRGINIA ASHLEY in her radio station W'-HACK. She started it herself and now has a coast-to-coast hook-up. Next is ELIZABETH APGAR pictured in her own studio. She has developed her artistic temperament and is teaching voice. UIANE KASS has been causing a sensation in the court room by winning every case she has undertaken. This picture portrays her delivering the last address to the jury in :n case of international importance. AUDREY LANFARE has invented a new way to do accounting, which she teaches every day to crowded classrooms. This picture shows the class throwing confetti after she has simplified a difficult problem for them. The next picture is of a rural scene with WINNIE COSBEY in the middle of it. She is out in the country somewhere trying to figure out Einstein's theory on relativity. She is his protege, you know. This looks like the South Seas and there is RUTH BOWERS getting off the boat Ready, Set, Go for a vacation on one of the islands. Her husband is the captain, and this is the first time they have been on land together. Wfho is this? She certainly looks all wrapped up. Ohfof coursefit is JEAN HAMON in her spaghetti factory trying to make her product bigger and better. just for old times sake, I guess. SWEETIE MARTIN is causing a panic, and you see her picture everywhere now. She has gained her fame by taking the core out of the Big Apple . Here is a girl in a dance costume whom we recognize as VERA FILES. She is working very hard as chief ballerina in the Metropolitan Ballet. The next is a sketch of socialite FIITI FRIDIRICI in a typical tea-table pose. She is dashing from place to place now, keeping ahead of the season. BETTY BACKES is next, and we find her pictured in the daily outfit she wears for her new job. She is working in a home for delinquent girls. Don't take that wrong, please,+we said ON the cases, not IN them. Here is another musician in the person of MARY FIELD. She is the star of a light opera company which is now producing a hit called Far Fetchedn. She still sounds the way she used to when she sang on the hall. Our expert on international affairs, POLLY HARRIS, has just completed another book and we have a picture of her autographing first editions at the book counter in Macy's. Here is the picture that DORIS IUDSON has been using in the catalogue for the boys' school she is running. You'cl be surprised how quickly business picked up when it first came out. Wfe now have a picture of that young pianist, RUTH GOODING, giving another recital at Carnegie Hall. All the tickets have been sold for weeks, but if you hurry you may be able to get some for her next concert. This is the last page of our magazine, and here we see three very unusual pictures-- one is of ELIZABETH SCHINDLER on top of Mt. Everest. She started out for a walk one afternoon, and this is where she landed. The next is of EUNICE THOMAS, our wonder girl. She has started a school for housewives who have to live on a budget. You should have one of the meals that cost next to nothing. c The last one is of VIRGINIA HOFFMAN as ringmaster in her own circus. Some- times she doubles up as bareback rider, as do the two bearded women, MARY HANK- INSON and CHARLOTTE GULLIVER. They call it the 'greatest show on earth'. Ni'nc'131-firr'
