VIRGINIA COOK Two Years Advanced Course Athletic Association President of Dramatic Club Dress Committee House Committee Senior Play She that hath knowledge, sparelh her words. ' ENERAL Information to-day? Mercy, I don't know anything! J I-Iere comes Ginny Cook, she'll tell you anything you want to know. And indeed she will! For not only has Ginny a remarkable fund of general information, but she is always willing to impart it to anyone. Although we often marvel at the high marks in her studies, we realize that she deserves them, for she is a conscientious worker, never shirking any part of a lesson. Please don't form your whole opinion of Ginny, yet! Of course, she is quiet, and not many girls have the privilege of knowing her inti- mately, but to her friends she is a true companion and I loyal to the last degree. She has an excellent sense of humor-we love her surreptitious giggle which occasion- ally gets the better of her dignity! Ginny is reliable and capable. When a task is to be done, be it pleasant or otherwise, Ginny, with a smile, will tackle it, and we may feel confident that she is doing it well. Although Ginny is a diminutive person, the place she fills in our hearts is very large and very important. 7-3

GARGUYLEIHEB 5 PATRICIA CONNOLLY Eleven Years General Course Athletic Association Triangle Board Lunch Room Committee Senior Play There is no wisdom in frankness. PATSY is one of the most versatile girls l know. She seems to be able to do anything from baking a cake to drawing dainty ladies or grotesque gargoyles. Proof of her ability as an artist may be had by perusing this GARGOYLEQ and as to her ability to make a cake-well, one cake made her famous. She can wield a brush or needle with equal facility. In fact, Patsy designs and makes most of her numerous dresses and hats which we gaze at with wonder. l-low can anyone be so clever? l dont know what we would do without Pat during the luncheon hour. She keeps us continually laughing with her amusing stories and witty comments on all subjects. We wish you the best of luck, Patsy, all your life! ' ' 22

JANE DEAL Eleven Years College Preparatory for Vassar Athletic Association T Dramatic Club Glee Club T Choir Outdoor Basketball Team QSub.j Study Hall Committee Music Club Cym Team Zealous, yet modest! E surely are glad, jane, that although you are a Trojan, you have lived here for your last two years. We feel that we have been able to know you so much better. Jane is very quiet, and it is only by close contact that one becomes acquainted with her charming personality, Beside her sweet manner, another admirable quality of hers is her neatness. You should see her room! Everything has its special place, and more than that, everything is in its place. When we say jane is neat, we don't mean that she spends all her time picking up, mending clothes, or darning stockings. Instead, she does those duties with dispatch ' ' and then turns with interest to sports. She went out faith- fully for basketball practice all fallg nor were her efforts in vain, for she made sub on the Senior basketball team. If steady, patient work means success, jane will certainly make her way without difficulty. 7-4
