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.

Whether in physics class, the lunch- room, or our homeroom, Horace is always found giving others a good laugh, or having one on himself.
