JANE HELLSTROM HER shining face and perpetual smile have won her a place in the class of '41, Her characteristic pose is munching an apple, of which she eats several every day. QWe guess she is superstitiousj For' ever knitting. she has hecome so accomplished that she can perform feats which few of us would even attempt, such as knitting and studying simulta- neously, knitting hlissfully away while sitting, standing, and even reclining, and last hut not least, knitting while walking hriskly through the crowded halls of our dear Alma Mater. Wtiiiderful girl! We often wonder whom all the socks are forf could it he that they go to those soldiers you are always talking ahout, Janie? Entered 10th, filet' Chili lfllll. Art Club llth. l ?

JAMES D. JOHNSON JIMMY is perhaps the quietest memher of a very noisy class, and is usually doing something conf structive while we're making a terrihc noise in the front hall. It's the same way in class. We may all think a test is hard Uim includcdj, hut in the final counting he always gets one of the hardest questions. How? just hy listening a little hetter than the rest of us. This year he managed the soccer team heautifully, and we always had cars and towels, which is credit enough for any manager. jim is also interested in hoats and is constantly correcting us on our tonnage and class, and how he keeps track of the sinkings is a naval secret. If it keeps up, jim, you'll have plenty of ships to design. Soccer MGTIQEET lltlz. Glee Club 10th. Iltli, 12th. 'Ten' nis. Basketball.

Few people ever see Mary Lee's hair mussed or her composure broken-in fact, few people ever see Mary Lee. She doesn't spend any more time than necessary around AG. F. S, and if Lone Star House should ever prove too dull of a week-end, and we douht that, the Dragon Lady thinks nothing of tooting off to Hill or even Texas for awhile. You can never get near enough to her to say hello at any of the famous dances, and the rest of us just step out of the running when she comes on to the floor. But we don't care hecause she deserves it. Don't break too many hearts, Mary Lee' Entered Kindergarten. Glce Club l0tb, lltli, 12th. Treasurer lltli. Athletic C 0 u 11 ci l Sth. Badminton lltb, 12th.
