Betty with a new coiffure-Betty's flying fingers furnishing music for the Glee Club and dancing at our social events-Betty watching for the mailman-Betty blushing-ffBetty gay and cheerful-Betty serious and studious-all these picture for us Fitchburgs gift to the Class of 37. True she did leave part of her heart behind her, but the part she brought with her gave us the real Betty, the Betty we will ever remember. Betty was one of our three Spanish students, and one member of the Class of '57 who really enjoyed attending French assemblies. She could say Oui , Oni , with the best of us, but her Si , Si , really had something. Margie and Betty will always be synonomous to us. Your smile, rosy cheeks, and laughing Irish eyes will surely be missed Little Liz. For you we pray that Our Blessed Lady to whom you were so devoted, especially through her Rosary, be as close to you always, as she certainly was in your days at O. L. E.

On a September morning three years ago, we returned to school to find Sally calmly and firmly established among us. That was all there was to her coming. She simply was thereg and just as surely she always will be. Her cool and polite appraisal of her classmates was as frank and sincere as Sally herselfg and the acceptance of each was mutual, Sally never was conspicuous in a gathering yet there never was a moment when we were unaware of her presence. Why, even one of our most imperturbable professors has been known to pause in the middle of a sentence and ask wonderingly. 'jWl1C1'C'S Sally? She possesses a startlingly keen mind. has a well founded opinion upon every subject which presents itself, and most precious of all, has that rare ability to withhold her judgments wisely. The spontaneity of her wit is delightful, and she is a past master at the art of repartee. Her subtle pen can make the most colorless subjects interesting. Were her observations concerning the affairs of mice and men gathered together, they would surely constitute a sparkling piece of literature. Little wonder that we did not hesitate to entrust to Sally the position of Humor-Editor of our annual. True greatness in any held, being ever prone to conceal itself, Sally's natural reticence follows as a matter of course. Serenely and simply she goes through life. If she is troubled, few are aware of it. Yet when we more impulsive souls become embroiled in our various difficulties, Sally is quick to perceive and ready to help. Indeed. this slender little person bears responsibility well. For your sweet unselhshness and your love of wholesome pleasure. for your untiring ambition and loyalty to ideals. for all those things which go to make a fine character, you are dear to us. For you we wish the best of everything. May you always be as you are.

ELMATA - cs fu ANASTASIA AGNES HOAR 99 HALL ST., SPRiNoF1uLD, Mass. Noi hir!

Could anyone forget the dy Ann returned? The ovation in the study hall was well-nigh deafening. Somehow we think that this memory picture typifies perfectly her place among her schoolmates-they were for her, to a girl. Ann's ready acquiescence to participate in class activities evidenced always her spirit of good- fellowship. ln action Ann showed more than good-fellowship. Hers is real prowess in the field of sport. One would never make the mistake of accusing Ann of that diligent application to study that forbodes a recluse. But at moments when sharp concentration was necessary, she never failed to evidence the ability that only a keen intellect can produce. That ability flashed out time and again in the presence of a dithcult Math problem or the complexities of physics and chemistry. Often we have observed it in class discussion. For Ann's is the mind that can be depended on for sound judgment and commonsense as well as brilliance. It's the judgment and good sense that the world is looking for, Ann, and we fear not for you who possess it. Good luck to you in whatever pathway you pursue, Ann. Those who meet you will have to recognize in you the splendid qualities we have. And as we learned, they too, will love and respect you for them.
