Only a lragic accideni could have 1'aken Mrs. Regan away from us. Would +ha'r she reiurn soon lo 'l'his circus! Her wi+, her humor, her vilalify combine wilh her sinceriiy, her curiosiiy, and her afieclion lo make her 1'he wonderful leacher we all remember wirh pride and love. Mrs. Regan is chockful of paradoxes. A devolee of ihe New Jersey shore, she rushes +o her New York Cily home as soon as 'rhe summer season is over. She adores ca+s and loves dogs. Fascinaled by +eaching, she neveriheless enjoys going +o school and aciing ou'r 'lhe role of s+uden+. A grea'I' admirer of song-wrifers like Oscar Hammersfein, she 'lakes devilish deligh+ in parodying lheir work. Mrs. Regan is as 'unusually hard-working and conscienlious as she is unassuming and modest She lakes liHle credii for 'rhe excellen'r ediiions of i'he ORIOLE +ha+ she helped +urn ou+ in +he pas+.
