MARIE DOOLEY 32 Pearl Street, Dorchester As Marie has wanted to be a teacher ever since she can remember, there is little doubt that she'll ever regret be- coming one. Time will find Marie sitting behind a desk teaching more than text- book knowledge to her students, for part of her warm personality and love of life will be imparted to the irls and boys she'll be making her friengs. Marie, be- cause of her attitude of friendliness toward others, will be a friend. She col- lects foreign dolls and the row of them, all dressed in their native costumes of the lands they represent, make an inter- esting sight. As a baseball and football enthusiast, she does her best to attend these games, and nothing can be quite as satisfying as to watch the players run wildly for a home run or dodge lock and tackles fop a touch wn.

When explaining a new book or her favorite symphony, Toody's excitement sometimes causes her to resort to her native French tongue, reminding her listener of her French background. As vice-president of the orchestra, she is starting naw toward her hoped for goal of being a good mu- sician, ond her other ambition, to be a successful woman is one that she shouldn't have any trouble in recogniz- ing, since she's been so very successful in her school life.

Her shy little grin will soon be topped off with a litte.white cap and uniform in the years to come, for Dot's tip-toeing figure will be walk- ing down quiet hospital halls on the way to some patient's bedside, She plans to take in a tour at the Newton Wellesley Hospital.
