Virginia Margaret Barr VVe hardly see how the two nicknames, Diz and Baby Face could apply to Virginia, hut that just shows her complex nature. Either cognomen suits her, but to attempt to express her sweetness, attractiveness and personality would he doing her a grave injustice, for it just can't be done. YVhat the rest of us commonplace mortals think of her is shown by the fact that we elected her the most attractive girl at G. P. S. VVhat the usuperiorl' sex think is shown by her frequent week-end trips to Atlanta and Nashville. ln other words, Virginia is another reason why gentlemen prefer hlondesf, But lest you think that Diz is a mere hutterHy, let me add that she has been an apt pupil during her four years of sojourn at G. P. S., and has always upheld the principles for which our school stands. We are confident that her successwvdl be as great at Yafard-lielnaont asit has been here. 4165

Mary R. Allen Voted the best all around of 175 girls, Mary certainly lives up to the reputation. Ever since Mary came to G. P. S. in her freshman year, she has captured everyone udth her dehgbtfuHy outmanding permmnahty. fXn cxceHent student without being a grind: that's Mary. Lessons never seem to bother her, she always' has them, but when she gets them nobody knows. Mary has won many laurels in dramatics, especially in the last animal board play, when she fairly took the house by storm. She's a Hiking Club member of long standing and last year Mary was activities editor of the annual. She says she wants to be a business lady and, as editor-in-chief of the Kaleido- scope, she has given us ample proof of her Hne business and executive ability. Mary is planning to go to Wellesley next year. VVe need not wish her success there-that goes without saying--Wellesley is second only to G. P. S. in luck. 1159

Grace Bickers 'J 'Way, ,way hack, six whole years ago, a little girl, immediately noticed and admired on account of her long red curls, mounted the steps of this imposing structure and hegan at once to take her place at the tip-top of her clam. lVlany girls have joined us and some have deserted us, since then, hut Grace still remains, right in the front ranks. Grace has a great many more fine qualities besides her marvelous intelli- gence, however. She is a lot like a fruit cake-has some of all the goodies. This fact was proven when our mighty principals gave her half honors in the Grace McCallie Memorial Scholarship, the greatest honor that can he conferred upon a G. P. S. girl. Grace is, also, a good haskethall player, vice-president of the Pan-Sophian Literary Society, and has taken part in many of our stupendous dramatic productions. Grace goes to Hollins next year, and what will we do-unless we all go to Hollins with her, so that our brightness will still seem natural. We wish her all the success in the world, and know she will make her Alma Mater proud of her. 1173
