0412115 Boo tg Anne Old Concord Road South Lincoln, Mass. To have, H to hold, - and - in time, - let go! - Lazzrefzfe Hope If you should happen to be in the parking lot some ordinary school day, you might see an apparition in a Canary yellow Model A Ford desperately struggling to park it. This is Anne, one of the few remaining girls at C. A. who has had the honor of being in the now non-existent fourth, fifth and sixth grades. In the seventh grade she was the calm president of Miss Clark's class, which was noted for shooting paperclips and using thumbtacks for things other than bulletin boards. Although it was a very difficult job, she kept order and has managed to live through the years here. Anne's tales of taking care of the Booth household while her parents are away are hair-raising, what with sick chickens, sick maids, and broken down cars. Oh dear, please tell me if I should cut it! is a common question asked by Anne about her hair. A former Purp goer, she has now joined the non-smokers once more and has admirably kept up her reputation as a member of this group. Anne has been in the class a long time, and there would be an empty place without her and her usually quiet ways.

g0J2E, BCUU255. Ianie Barney 3410 Volta Place N.W. Washington, D. C. Those who watch one rainbow after another dissolve into seven prisms, they seem to gather reputations for being rainbow chasers. - Sandburg You may have noticed a creature, characterized by her green hooded coat, her tweed skirt, and a circle or two under her eyes, roaming around Concord. Well, that's Barnes. lCourse, she's the best hockey player for the Reds. As a matter of fact, she seems to be so taken with hockey that Barnes and company have been known to make early morning excursions to sweep feathers off the hockey fields. This school is going to be awfully quiet in the years to come. No more will we hear Janie's beautifully trained voice flying through the halls, or, at an even lower altitude, in the assembly hall during chorus. A whistle, perhaps? Have you heard about her summer at Fort Hall, Idaho? If you haven't, you must go ask her. You'll probably find her in her room, that is, if you can stumble successfully through the maze of empty coke bottles. She's planning to put herself through college with the deposit refunds. Her skill as a camper is greatly renowned, especially on cold rainy nights when she played Washington crossing the Dela . . . er, Concord River in a desperate attempt to reach the warmth of the Burley household. But, needless to say, we have all noticed a remarkable and commendable change from the Class II and III jane Barnes, with the exception of a few unavoidable temper tantrums resulting in sore arms and perforated walls. Her marks have suddenly shot up, perhaps due to a bit of college influence, and her name appears only intermittently on the wood list. The Chameleon sparked this year, as did the board meetings, with Janie as editor-in-CHIEF! and student council wouldn't be the same without her.

glazafz Uyfsfon Bfcoarf Ginger Sally Broad Mott Road Fayetteville, N. Y. I love all that thou lovest, O spirit of delight. - Anofzymofu K. 2' in fi, If you hear a typewriter and a Dixieland record, it's ten to one that Ginger is at work. Her busy schedule still leaves her time for such esoteric activities as taking Russian at the high school and extolling the virtues of mid-western colleges. As head of Current Events Club, Ginger has done a fine job keeping the club in existence, despite the late hour and conflicting activities. She is also a charter member of the C. A. chapter of the Grand Teton Fan Club. Her interests extend to ballet, occasional stuffs and the MIDWEST. fIt's the second home of Dixieland jazz, you know.j If you want money, advice or consolation, it is best to approach her after a letter or a Syracuse Nats' victory. During her first year at C. A. Ginger managed to get a reputation for being excruciatingly punctual. It is rumored, though, that she and Heroy held contests all first term to see who could make it to breakfast in the least amount of time. In spite of this Ginger hasn't appeared on the wood list yet - must have been the ones that were lost . . .! East, North, South or Mid-West we're sure Ginger with her enthusiasm will be happy.
