MARGARET O’NEILL liejiinniiij? with our Sopho- more year, Miss O’Neill took the place of the one and oidy “Guy” as head of our Latin Department and, during- her two years incumbency, it must be said that she tilled his place in a satisfactory and efficient manner. Merry- hearted and pleasant, she soon won a place in our hearts. N » one could “Get away with anythiiiif” on “Peii ' j;y, ' ’ how- ever, as many found to their soiTow. We htst her throu,ah marria te last year, and trust that lUiUTied life will be for her a pleasant voyasre. MARIE GIBBONS Miss Gibbons is that be- witchinjr young brunette who lords it over Room Eight with sm-li delightful sovereignity and severity. Everything she says goes, for who could re- fuse lierV We’ve taken French from “Marie” for two years: we wish it were twenty. You know, she’s that kind of a girl. Her ripiding humor, and h( r delicate, satiric thrusts w(M-e outstanding features of “Marie” in our mind, and th( se things, plus her undeni- able teaching ability, have made her acquaintance well worth while. We trust that Fortune will continue to smile on Marie in the casting of the lots, and that her i ath will be (»f a roseate hue. 12

JOSEPH F. McCaffrey “Joe,” as our athletic coach, ami as our teacher, has liatl ample opportunity of showing us what he has of ability and we must admit that he is “there” — and “there” with em- phasis. The hug:e success which has crowned his efforts on the athletic field is evident by a jjlance at our school ' s record of the past year. As a teacher, he has won our re- spect and esteem. Joe’s sin- cerity, honesty, and straight- forwardness have made him tremendously popular with every one, and it is safe to surmise that he runs even the incomparable “Doc” a close second. We wish “Joe” luck, and all the things that go with it. MARY KERRIGAN Mary Kerrigan “Molly” our l»etite Latin and French teachei- is very popular with the girls and boys. Although she is a new member of the faculty, she certainly is a pleasant addition. We all know that Molly never forgot her High School days and we all love her for being leni(‘iit with us at times. I»ut did you ever try to get a drink luring foi-bidden hours while “Molly” was on guard? “Try and do it.” Also, did yon ever try to get excused from rei)orting ba- misbehavior? Try it s mie- time. It’s fun. but you ' ll re- port in the end. “Molly’s” prim but she is a (la ding, and W( ’1I never forget her with her sweet smile and curly hair. 14
