Red Cross, 45, Tri-Hi-Y, 45, P?-Life, 47, Maple Leaves Staff, 4 . MYRNA JO REASER-Idiot's de- light, a delicious ice cream con- coction, and for that matter, anyone's. A strong sense of hu- mor, and an extreme sense of the ridiculous combine to make Myrner a pleasant companion for dull hours. Girls' Athletic Club, 46-47. LEMUEL REED, JR.- Lem for I short-and so, short-cake, an old southern recipe.
