MARGARET OLSON Being of a quiet nature, one hardly realizes when Margaret is present. How- ever, her quietness is not a discredit to her, but is an added attraction. Upon being graduated, she wishes to join the Cadet Nurses' Corps. Knowing Margaret, we are sure that her patients will like, as we do, her sympathetic attitude. BEVERLY OSTRANDER They certainly grow peaches in El- lington. Bev has truly been an addi- tion to our school with her shining per- sonality and sunny smile. She is vice- president of the Dramatics club, a mem- ber of the Mi-Y, and took part in the sen- ior play, Elmer and the Lovebug .

BEVERLY PETERSON Beverly is another one of those girls who, although present, seems unnotice- able. She is always busy with some- thing and upon graduation, she intends to work in a war plant.
