ANTHONY ALBRECHT Back from a year in Weisbaden, Germany, this youthful globe-trotter rejoined his orig- inal class this February. Tony has been closely associated with the class of '48, even though he left us behind in the sixth grade, when he was the scourge of the school. He was on the road to fame in his tenth grade MARY LOUISE Mary Lou has been with our class since kindergarten, and we missed her during the last term after she took up housekeeping and left us struggling with our books. Her ab- sence was noticed in the art room where she had spent so much of her time, and at our year when he made the varsity football team, and since has been an outstanding athlete. Aside from having two terrors as brothers, Auz is famous for his humor, and his engag- ing personality is a welcome re-addition to our senior class. ALDRICH MURRAY class parties, for she was one of the people who started us off on our long chain of open houses . Mrs. Murray is the first one of us to be married, and we all wish her every happiness. WINDSOR F. COUSINS, Jr. 'l'o look at that half-quizzical, half-com- ical expression of Cous's you would never guess that under that flame colored top lurked one of the best brains in our class. In addition to his intellectual attributes and his work as co-editor of the Pastorian, he has proved him- self in athletics fwho can forget how he snared that all important pass in the Sanford game?j in comic-opera, fremember Lord Tol- loler in Iolanthe ?Q and with his artistic ability which shows up to advantage in those hilarious cartoons of the faculty.

DEBORAH M. BEARDWOOD As soon as she enters the room, our pet victim of claustrophobia orders the windows opened-wide. Yet the gallant person who finally opens one, is despised for life, and probably freezes to death in tl1e bargain. Besides being famous for her claustrophobia, Debbie is known for her monopoly of the drinking fountains, and, in a more serious vein, for her ac- complishments on the hockey and tennis teams, as well as for her outstanding academic achievements through her years at G.F.S. And, at any one of our famous open houses, her bouncing light brown locks, and corny jokes are always in evidence, adding Zl great deal of life to the party. JOHN B. HAGNER G. A. may have won the football game, but their great loss was when jack Hagner left them and came to G.F.S. In the tenth grade this unfortu- nate individual found himself saddled with the job of presiding over a highly unmanageable class. But it appears he survived this ordeal, as he is once again presiding, this time as class treasurer, and also as captain of the baseball team. The Imsiz' idea is that he plays second base on the baseball team, and sings third base in the choir. Possessed of a longshoreman's appetite, he has a particular fondness for grilled cheese sandwiches and cake. It will be a long time before G.F.S. forgets Froggy and his strategically placed fire drills.

Although she's only 5 feet 2 inches tall, she seems to have unlimited energy to do anything that . is required of her. Many of us have looked in envy at her palace in the country, and the Annapolis manor, where this little princess holds her court. Wherever you go, we wish you luck, little merry Mac. HORACE C. DISSTON, Jr. ' Horace is that fair haired, lanky fellow who was singing Jolson's latest at the last open house. When Horace added himself to the class list, he was somewhat anti-women. Even though our girls don't see much of him, there are rumors of tall blondes, and warm summer EDITH With her red silk stockings and her green perfume, she breezes in and out of our home- room on Friday afternoon, and she's off to a Yale or Princeton houseparty. Deedee is as at home at a political debate as she is among the hearts and spades. Her hairdoe's QDee- W. 11 nights. Whether in physics class, the lunch- room, or our homeroom, Horace is always found giving others a good laugh, or having one on himself. With his poise 'n pipe, Hor- ace is our candidate for the man of distinction of the senior class. DALLAS dee's motto is variety is the spice of lifeuj are something to behold, perhaps that is the reason for the 45 degree angle walk. Al- though her ambition is journalism, it is more likely she will end up in the proverbial vine- covered cottage.
