JOANN SPILLANE Jo is obviously of the sun and sand she loves. The California girl, she manages to retain a summer look throughout rainy winter months, to extend her favorite season by anticipation and by the reluctant relinquishing of sandals and short flowered shifts. Remarkable for an organization that produces an ever- handy list and that finds eachitem later checked off, Jo is known to be considerate because her good intentions flower under thoughtful supervision. A never empty mail- box answers the stacks of letters she continually sends. Holiday cards go out by the dozens, the result of Jo's care to preserve friendships combined with a sentimentality that would be laughed at were it less sincere. She is captivated by babies, and often herself expresses a child- like excitement which produces a sudden scream, start- ling or scaring those unfamiliar with her extreme re- actions. Even when not necessarily relishing the occasion, Jo is capable and poised in a social atmosphere-a sharp contrast to the panicked reactions that find her in a closet, unproportionately scared by the knock of authority. A timidity that won't voluntarily speak in class and dis- likes being the center of attention, easily accepts a repri- mand while eyeing an exit, thinking only of being gone. Gullible and completely unconvincing at pretense, 10's disposition is revealed by an impish look that develops into a grin and laughter that fades brilliantly into her white smile. I35
