VICKI MONTAGUE Vicki belongs to the night. Not to the darkness outside but to a room warmly lighted. The door closed. The cur- tain drawn. There ideas can be openly exchanged with her closest friends. These are the moments to be treasured. Not watching the hands of the clock. Not caring about them. The hustle and bristle of everyday living was not meant for Vicki. Yet she forces herself through the motions of schedules and routines. When she's caught with some- thing not finished on time, she panics. The World of order has played a cruel trick on her. She will pull down her chin with a jerk and cry out something close to a high pitched Aaaahhhhhl,' She will stare at you. One wrist raised and crooked over her head. A one-toothed index finger combing short frosted strands of hair. Maybe everything will get done. Somehow. Sitting like an Indian. Rocking back and forth. Hug- ging her teddy bear, Dreaming about home and her black furry dog Pogo. The hours go by. You get a lulling sen- sation that nothing could bother Vicki. But things do. Long skirts, pushy people, the results of Vatican II, not having a tan. Vicki would gladly run away from prob- lems if she could. And many a wild plot hatched after two a.m., remain as a result. A nocturnal specialty. To elude the coming dawn. To hide from a certain. tomorrow. IOI i

DEANNE MOORE Balancing somewhere between her worlds of prac- ticality and fanciful sophistication, Deanne radiates an enthusiasm virtually unmatched. ln whatever she does Dee is distinctly herself, punctuating every other sentence with a giggle and an excited, Oh, nolv Her ambitions touch on the bizarre, whether it is to travel to the moon or to wear a James Galanos original. Yet somehow one feels that Dee might just achieve them. Her sustained energy emanates throughout the campus. A scene from an ordinary day might find Dee in academic gown riding horseback and bearing the Dominican shield to announce Shield Day, or smocked and paint splattered tackling the immense task of renovating the Student Union. Deanne is unique. In true scientific spirit she passes late afternoon hours in the chemistry lab, subsequently rewarding herself for such remarkable endurance by a quick drive to Taco Bell. Those few free hours might also find her in her room, sitting cross-legged on the floor with scissors in hand, cutting out a pattern for her latest fashion which she would describe as just a little different and strictly me. Although she tolerates superficiality in others, there is a genuineness which distinguishes Deanne. Her most whimsical dreams eventually give way to definite and uncompromising goals of graduate school and achieve- ment in her academic field. I03
