How many times has this class, renowned for its moments of depression or elation, called on Julia to set it back on a straight course? As President of the class during the Eighth and Tenth Grades, and as Head of Student Council this year, julia has been a steadying influence on the class and has won the respect and friendship of everyone. We knew when she joined the unruly, raucous members of the Sixth Grade, that we had a prospective leader, and in her unassuming way she has filled this position. julia has energetically undertaken any task set before her. Her intellectual ability as well as her amazing artistic talent have been the envy of many. julia can draw anything, from the anatomy of a cat to a fuzzy bear. At times her aesthetic appreciation exceeds her zcal for physical activities, but she gives staunch spiritual support to the athletic cause. julia can be seen not infrequently with that illustrious group of wholesome Seniors who indulge in eating and making merry. With her efficiency, Julia can be noted in the middle of the day, tearing her hair and bemoaning the loss of a pair of glasses.

Pet Peeve: the 7 A.M. bell Pet Passion: Florida Betty Bet: Tru: l Betsy came tip-toeing into CA. in her Sophomore year, and immediately sat down to write a list, she's been doing this ever since. In fact, an alert faculty member is very liable to discover a stray list on one of Betsy's papers. ' lj Do laundry .241 Call Mummy 31 Take Bath 41 Miss Bilinska's Tea 5j Do extra exercises! During her first year, Betsy was best known for her terrible marks . . . B+. But it was in her Junior year that she really gained fame, due to the heroic sprint in the indoor meet, when she wouldn't even allow a bench to stop her. This year, as everyone knows, Betsy has calmed down considerably and is majoring in canoeing. Betsy's other talents are as numerous as they are varied. For instance, if you ever get bored or depressed, you can always drop in on Betsy. fIt's the only room in C.A. that sports TWELVE Yale bannersj, and she will cheer you up with fascinating stories of Italy and, of course, her 5,000 relatives. Betsy also spends a great deal of time in the cellar of No. 72. The menacing growl of five washing-machines means that Bets is doing her weekly wash. Let's hope that her college has a well-equipped laundry, or we may find that Betsy is a two-year Senior, fwhich after all, wouldn't be so badj. ffizafiatd BME fjftuafow 1088 Park Ave. New York 28, New York And gladly wolde he lerne, and gladly teche -Chaucer
