BARBARA MORRISON A San Francisco sopllisticate or a Southern California beach bunny, Barbara changes her image with the ease of certain taste. Aware of fad and fashion, she never hesitates to be diiferent or daring. She suits her own style, relying on the self-confidence of being well- groomed. At ease with herself, she is able to make others com- fortable by a warm interest and friendliness best ex- pressed in a realistic humor. Any situation is under con- trol and can be enjoyed, at least privately, by the objective recognition of the ridiculous. Barb entertains by the mim- icking rendition of a recent experience, managing to engage her audience by hilarious facial expressions. Her eyes may light at a suggested dare but she avoids trouble by confining her antics to a dialogue or a silliness that achieves effect by astonishment. Barb's light and personal humor is never dull, though often impractical-her most impossible wish is to grow her own frosted hair. She canlt keep appointments and her actions express dislike for a schedule. She is, though, apt to use her time constructively, and will accomplish what she must while also finding time for important mat- ters which pamper her femininity. Regularly found on Pebble Beach, Barb loves the sun and an outdoors look but shuns any athletic activity. The best dressed skier, she is likely not to ski, but will undoubtedly delight those who do.

CATHY NAHIGIAN There is something dark and beautiful about Cathy, there is a depth of character that is complex and confusing sometimes. Cathy is quiet and perceptive, independent and intuitive. She makes dreams inside, builds castles, and fills them with her special understanding of what love is. Cathy is characterized by a deep concern for those whom she considers important. Never seeking the lime- light, she is content to be just a little outside the main- stream, observant and sensitive. She is shy on first meet- ing and perhaps for a long time after that. Cathy is not quick to open up to anyone, but rather careful and de- liberate in choosing those who could truly be called friends. Temperamental? Only to an extent, resulting from something inside of Cathy that will not allow her heart to be involved at times. When life gets to the point of only questions with no seeming answers, Cathy is frustrated by the frivolous and becomes at times too sensitive to the lightness of others who are not so concerned with the seriousness of life and the problems of today's world. But Cathy's moods are usually kept beneath the sur- face-only those very close to her will know when she is disturbed. Others see a bright person, with a flashing smile, big brown eyes, and a hair ribbon to match every mood of every day. It is only when you get inside Cathy,s world that you find out what's really happening there, that you hnd the Cathy who is loyal and sincere, dark and beautiful. l07
