Emie Em Oh, I wish I were in England! I could go to the Royal Ballet every night and have crumpets and tea! Emie's enthusiasm for England is apparent, for her room is strewn with British ballet calendars, annuals, dictionaries, records, and magazines. Because of the Australian influence in her family fone claim to fameuj, she says dressing gown instead of bathrobe and short-sightedl' instead of near-sighted . Speaking of short- sightedness, Emie has been known to squint at objects less than five feet away! This trait was discovered by her voice teacher, who was a bit amazed when she couldnlt read the music. Emie has been urged for many years to take lessons, but because of a British aunt's notion, she waited until she was seventeen. Except for one unrehearsed solo appearance, however, she has sung beautifully in Chorus, Choir and Octet. Another claim to fame is her Stuart nose, which she can trace back to her royal ancestors. Everyone knows Emie by her hysterical laugh, her shiny dark hair and her enthusiasm for sports. Her roommates know her by her distinctive feet, her glugging water after lights, and the baby sweater she has been working on for four years, Enzifta dlflagzynazd Stuart 85 Fairway Drive Princeton, New ersey Without music life would be a mistake - Nieizrclae

cqgigaif Bonney .fjlmifrfi Bonney Lowell Road Concord, Mass. But the child that is born on the Sabbath day Is brave and bonny, and good and gay. -- Unknown Bonney is one of the last survivors from the lower school days, which means that she has witnessed many happenings at C. A. As one of the little girls she crowned the May Queen, enjoyed the lower school operettas and was present when the school had its first fair. This year she headed the Greens Committee after many years of being an active member. How did Mrs. Hall ever get locked under the stage? Some will remember the time that Bonney conveniently managed to lose her voice during the middle of an oral quiz. Since then, however, she has managed to make use of her voice while singing with the jabberwocks. Bonney's favorite hobby is going places. She spent a couple of summers on the Wfest Coast, a summer in the Canadian Rockies and on a ranch in Arizona. Rumors have been heard concerning an eventful trip which she took last summer. Vive la France! Bonney joined in the enthusiasm of the country - and what's this we hear about a bikini? Bonney has contributed much energy to the Blue team. Each season she can be found participating on a varsity, whether it be held hockey, basketball or lacrosse. We are sure she will always have fond memories of her years at Concord Academy. f.' if . an akztw - L' -I , g 'A ws' 5 ii. .

.glzsffay cbfafflawagzj .Swift Trapelo Road Lincoln, Mass. Life is very short, and very uncertain, let us spend it as well as we can. Shell - Samuel folamoiz Shelley became a part of our little group in Class V, and since then the class hasn't been the same. Always active, she's into everything at once though it's often hard to figure out what she's doing. One thing that can be safely said - there's never a dull moment around Shell. Never will we forget her yearly slumber party with its swims in the reservoir and poison ivy after-effects, the nightly stuffs and placid Sunday afternoons. Next week I'm really giving up smoking, really I am has become one of her slogans, as she's been saying it for the last two years. And there are the apple and tea diets once a month. At school we find her madly rushing around trying to get last night's assignments done or off to French Club or Current Events, or running across Main Street in her night gown to be an angel in the school pageant. Weekends inevitably find her at Harvard, which manages to take up a good part of her time, thought and energy, or on the ski slopes, where she just happens to make a hundred new friends. This year, Shelley with her new hairdo Cgreat improvementj and her pierced ears is still the same lively old model. b vw-ww 3 fi S ,.., W1 Ap Vic, . if ,wa
