AVIS ELLEN CAXEDY 'tAvis Her voice ever sojf, gentle and low, --In ercellenz' thing in u'oman. Did someone speak? Why, of course, Avis. She has such a Wee little voice we can hardly hear her. Avis is a quiet girl and the new regulations about talking didn't seem to bother her much. Nevertheless she's got a lot of class spirit, and if there's anything to be done she's always Willing to help. She plays the flute now, which we think suits her much better than a horn. VVho can imagine Avis blowing a big horn and making such a lot of noise? MARGARET ISABELL CARSON Peg Swzjt as a swallow, subtle as a jlamef' And, now, along comes Peg from Briggsville. She certainly started some- thing when she stepped out with the first shingle bob in school. YVe wonder if it originated in Briggsville. We must admit that the whirl of Duties, Dates, and Dreams fascinates Peg far more than the confusing Reading, 'Riting, and 'Rithmetic. Rice's makes an ideal Waiting place, so very many people either stop or pass by, don't they Peg? 19

NATHAN SHALOR BURNETT A miglzfy man is he. One look at lXIilky in a class room would not convince a stranger that he was gazing at a member of Company K., North Adams National Guard Unit. However, closer examination and a glance at the sporting page would serve as proof that hlilky is a bona Hde, active member of Company K. Blany of us who spend our afternoons in the detention room for tardiness, etc., would like to know how Hlilky gets away without keeping us company. Perhaps, when he leaves Drury he will tell someone how he did it. lVIilky is one of our many bright students who gets high marks despite the fact that he spends the mini- mum amount of time on his lessons. Fitchburg Normal is Where llilky will go next year. ANNA CAHILL Of manners gentle, of affections mild. Class Play Commz'z'z'ee 4 Anna is one of our star pupils. Just think-she completed the requirements in three years! No wonder we're proud to claim her! She has been a quiet pupil, and has hardly made herself known to us. YVe think she likes Nliss Radlo's periods-can it be-? But Anna can't make up her mind as to what her life- work shall be. so she has decided to come back for a P. G. VVhat a Wise girl! 18

EMILY CADMUS CLARE Emps '21 daughter of the gods, divinely fall, ,Incl most dz'1'ir1elyja1'r. Baslrm'bc1ll 1, 2, 3, 4 Speaking of hobbies we must surely mention Emps. It is-Blathematics, n'est-ce-pas? She fairly revels in hlath. tests and just can't hardly wait for a test in Geometry. But next to Algebra, Math., etcetera, she certainly took to basketball. Can she play? Not very much! VVhy, other teams just get weak in the knees when they see her play! Emps surely worked hard to stay Certified for Hollins next year, and We expect to see her come back next year with a slow, southern drawl. VVe can't help but like Emps, not only because she's so good- natured but well-because she's Emps. WILLIAM RLUBLN CLARK Mose i'Bill Harry In all their glory, lllonarclzs twain, Aire not arrayed like me. lllanager Baseball 4 S'hIose , a veritable social lion, whose curly locks bring groans of envy from all the members of the fair sex, can be seen coming from the principals othce at any hour during the day-but never without that everlasting grin. Bill takes a great interest in Miss Radlo's specimens, he delights in pulling them apart to find out how they function. He proved himself a natural born actor in the Dairy Maids and a reputable understudy of the proverbial Rudolph. Mose is headed for New York University next yearg We hope that he gives the big city a thrill. 20
