T H E E M ERSONIAN 1931 RUBY GRASS MAINE Ruby counts a day lost unless she does her four miles. How she budgets her time, manages to maintain her scholastic record and makes this walk a regular custom is a mystery to us. Can it be true Ruby has become interested in the “starch business?” We understand tis so and wish the best of luck to the girl with the merry twinkle in her eye. Class Stunt 1, 2; May Festival. MARTHA HANEY K rx MASSACHUSETTS “Marty” is another victim of the fates who occasionally decree that dignified Seniors shall be mistaken for freshmen. Her curly head is scarcely five feet above the ground, but we maintain that this youthfulness is entirely physical. As evidence, witness her record at Emerson and the capable way she deals with settlement “opportunities.” Class Stunt 1, 2, 3 ; Treasurer Newman Club 3; Secre- tary Newman Club 4; Men ' s Club Play 3. ELIZABETH HARDWICKE K V X MARYLAND “Telephone Hardy” — the old war cry. People are always calling for Hardy. She hasn’t been with us long, but we don’t know how we’re going to get along without this jolly efficient little per- son. She’s the kind of a girl we like in spite of her reputation of being “always prepared.” She has that personality smile. Fell us, Hardy, is it Pep- sodent ? Secretary-Treasurer Southern Club. ELIZAB ETH H ARRIGAN KF X MASSACHUSETTS Betty is another steadfast little person with a sly sense of humor. She is one of the quiet members of our class, but did you ever get her started over crackers and a “coc” in the drug store? Her cyni- cal philosophy concerning the opposite sex is high- ly interesting, but we’re sure she’ll change her mind some day. Class Stunt 1, 2, 3. Page Twenty-two

THE EMERSONIAN i93 1 EVA FLEISH MASSACHUSETTS Petite and unobtrusive, Eva has nevertheless gained friends. She doesn ' t make much noise get- ting there, but she is always in the right place at the right time. Eva is one of the short ends of a familiar trio. One of the great treats we hope the Recreation Club will stage in the near future is a wrestling match between Birdie and Eva. Menorah Society; Junior Song Day. MARGUERITE FOX RHODE ISLAND Who would suppose the quiet, conscientious Marguerite could harbor such a quick wit, such keen power of analysis of the people around her? We aren’t afraid of her discerning eye, for she’s far too altruistic and kindhearted to really harbor any unkind thoughts about us. Her ambition is to impart dramatic technique to unworthy little urchins, proving that after all these years, Mar- guerite is still an idealist. EDITH GAMPEROLI MASSACHUSETTS Remember the cute “male” pianist in Junior Song Day? ’Twas Edith. We’ve always taken Wednesday Chapel and Edith for granted, and when for some reason she is not at the piano, we stand helpless until she is found. Emerson owes her one of its songs, and we, knowing her these four years, have found that she has talents along other than musical lines. Edith’s scientific budget system will always remain a mystery to us. Class Stunt 1 , 2 , 3 ; Senior Recitals. JANE GILBERT MASSACHUSETTS For a long time Jane managed to fool us with her quiet unobstrutive manner, but we now feel confident in prophesying success and plenty of it for this capable dark-eyed girl. If you ever need a quiet talk, sympathy, or the best of advice you will always find Jane ready to do all she can. Class Stunt 1 , 2 , 3 ; President of Commuter’s Club; Com- muter’s Club Play; Commencement Pageant. Page Twenty-one

THE EMERSONIAN 1931 RUTH HARRIS K r X PENNSYLVANIA “Harris” is the embodiment of the golden rule, good humored and considerate. She’s the kind of girl who won’t admit failure, but whose head is never turned by success. Ruth is given to making “breaks” and is possessed of the most devastating giggle the world has ever known. Class Stunt 1, 2, 3; Junior Recitals; Riddle Pos- ture Prize; Forensic Union; Recreation Club; President’ s Club; Student Government ; President k r x ELIZABETH HELFAND MASSACHUSETTS Here is a true student, one with a real ambition to acquire knowledge. Betty’s psychology quiz marks and her thesises have long been the envy and despair of us all, but we like her just the same, for Betty is not one to call attention to our dis- crepancies. On the contrary, she’s always ready to help, thereby giving additional proof of her fine character. Junior Stunt. FRANCES HEWITT MAINE Ask her a question and she will tell you a long story “with gestures,” for Fran has a faculty of noticing little things which most of us miss and turning these into most humorous and exaggerated stories. Maybe that is one reason we all feel sorry to see her go. We admire her for her many achieve- ments, fine qualities, her determination, and for the way she made Cvmbeline a financial success. Class Stunt 1 , 3 ; Forensic Union; Business Manager of Revival Play. MARIE HOAR MASSACHUSETTS M arie is so versatile that it is hard to describe her. A remarkable girl with the “heart to con- ceive, the understanding to direct, the hand to ex- ecute.” A clever little toastmistress, with blue eyes and curly hair and a wit that fairly crackles, this is our M arie. Class Stunt 1 , 3 ; Forensic Union; Advertising Manager Year Book. Page Tvcenty-three
