FLORENCE J. APPEL Flossie really needs no remarksthe hysterical giggle rumor has it that she caught it from her room-mate, the scraping of a Vic day and night, the scuffle of dancingthese, combined with a mixture of the undetermined noises that have escaped through the walls of 308 Branford for the past three and a half yearsyea, are not these jubilant echoes enough to advertise abroad the hospitable nature of Flossie J., who gathers around her all those souls with similar tendencies toward noise, atmos- phere, and glimmers of intelligence. man year remains for the most part an unchronicled mystery; ore we can remember only her constant threats to bob her hair, n one square inch of pestilent bangs; her Junior year was one ife to annihilate any robust superfluity of form. We cherished the loss of tonsils might somewhat modify the commotion this Big Bare Barn, but Flossie is not to be so easily subdued, for uch as we hate to admit it we can secretly be thankful. cult to imagine what Florence would be without a demon room- 1d needless to say we much praise Ethel for keeping her away from evious pathways of sin violation of Stu.

CARMELA ANASTASIA Carmela's coming here was heralded to upper classmen in such ways as the following: Have you heard about the Math genius who's living at Dr. Leib's ?? And ever since then Carmela has managed to keep the sympathies of the college arousedchemical explosions, fractured kneecaps, the skidding of roller-skates. Yes, we sympathized with her even when she cut the clicks off K. Culver's heels. Carmela is our highest exponent of scholarship and industrious labor. Yet in spite of her academic application, she seldom misses a dance. She has been known, in the past, to make triply sure of having her invitation ac- cepted by the simple expedient of asking three men. All three accepted, Carmela being unable to differentiate, rose to a state of high tension and nervous excitement, when suddenly Fate took matters into her own hand- and Carmela injured her knee. Carmela's athletic ability is nothing to be sneezed atshe is perfectly at home on a hockey field ; her indomitable energy makes her an opponent to be feared. Great things have been predicted for Carmela along the lines of the medi- cal profession and there is every reason why she should continue along the way of success. 1 23

MURIEL ASHCROFT There is one very definite thing about Murielshe lives in Vinaland when anyone lives in the cottage, nothing else is very definite to the campus dweller. For four years Muriel has occupied a totally unique place in our class. She has led the long staggering lines of our gym class. It is not because her name begins with an A but rather because of her great and tremendous height. Ahwe must have our little jest, yea, even at the expense of Muriel's height. She left us some time during our course to resume her allegiance to Adelphi. But sc strong a hold did C. C. have on her loyalty that she returned unto the fold to the joy of all and the utter delight of the other two of the triumviratePadelford, Mader, and Ashcroft. 3-1 o
