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

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

Don't get the wrong idea! It isnyt that she's a two-timer . . . just a one-timer for two years! Yes, after a passing glance at St. Markls, Ings decided that it would take her lllllffl less time to drive to Groton, so . . . Don't be misled, though! Back and forth to Groton is not the only road she has ever traveled! After spending the ninth grade at Concord, Ings packed her bags and left us for the wilds of Europe, namely Germany. There she spent eight months drinking in das Deutsch before returning to good old C.A. and its Mixers. During the last two years at Concord, her cry has been, Cookies tomorrow, please! For, as head of The Portrait Committee, she has had the job of making lists, selling food, and searching endlessly for new and different recipes - Anyone know of a good recipe for a not-too-fattening layer cake? - She has been a loyal member of the Reds and an enthusiastic participant in Glee Club. Her numerous other activities have included ice hockey, page 25 of the Groton Yearbook, catching the train on time and DKE's. Help! - Life is never dull, itls i:zf1'e'rZZble. '
