JEAN FosTER Six Years General Course Athletic Association Dramatic Club Entertainment Committee GARooYLE Board Senior Play Elegant as simplicity, and warm as ecstasy. E were all so glad last year when our bonnie jean became a boarder. We had l been wishing for a long time, even from Intermediate days, that shed come to live with us to cheer us along. Jeans curly locks were among the first in the class to be shorng then Jean, her dancing blue eyes full of laughter, watched us as we pondered on the vitally-important question-to cut or not to cut. jean wields a magic pen, from which exquisite verse seems to flow with the greatest ease possible, It produces stories, once in awhile, too. Besides a charmed pen, she also possesses a fascinating paintbrush with which she absentmindedly creates fantastic beauties with lovely eyelashes! And the GARGoYLE has that brush to thank for many of its cuts. To be brief, jean is a mixture of originality, enthu- siasm, perversity, charm, fastidiousness, and pure lovable- ness, 26

1 NANCY FINCI-l Four and a l-lalf Years College Preparatory for Colorado Uni- versity Athletic Association Student Council Dramatic Club Outdoor Basketball Team CSub.D Chairman of l-louse Committee Gym Team Imaginative, innocent, sincere. Of every friendless name the friend. GIGGLE and a quick stepfthat is the outward expression of Nancy's character. Shining brown eyes, a sensitive nose, and a firm, practical mouth show that Nancy is observant, well-balanced and strong. As l-lead of Sage, she keeps us all in order with terrible sternness, or, when this fails, with pleading. l-low well she understands us! Who can help obeying, admiring, and loving her? Nancy has always been interested in social service workfespecially with little children-and, to judge from the reports we have heard, she is making a great success of it. We know she makes exquisite embroidery which she sells for the childrens fund. Nancy is one of E. W.'s oldest inhabitants, having been here since her Freshman year, and the class often benefits by her helpful suggestions gleaned from past experience. Nancy is an outstanding character in our class, full of life, humor, and love-three perfect requisites for success in life. 25

L GRACE GAMBLE Six Years General Course Athletic Association Student Council Hockey Team Chairman of Study Hall Committee Advertising Manager of the GARGOYLE Senior Play None but himself can be his parallel. S X 2 E could not have chosen a better girl to guide us in the straight and narrow path than Grace. With a stern voice she rebukes a wandering student, and her clear command, No talking, girls! is heard down the length of the corridors. She naturally inspires awe in the bewildered Freshmen, but to those who know her well, Grace is all kindness and full of fun. On the hockey Field, Grace has the invaluable position of fullback, and with many a sure hit at the ball she has kept the opposite team from making a goal. We have yet to find a girl with more spirit and enthu- siasm than Grace. lnto everything that she does she puts her whole heart. We often wonder how she takes care of - - all her responsibilities and yet keeps in such good humor. Grace is never so busy that she hasn't time to help some- one out or to join in some fun. 7-7
