'32 Class Roll '32 Swift to hear, slow to speak, slow to wmtlif' giMARiE Can you imagine the crew of the Good Ship Birmingham without Marie? What would we do without someone to quietly help us along when the sea has become a little choppy? Marie has the gift of discerning the best things in life and appreciating them. Even this trait she shares with others for, in the lovely themes she writes, there is always a sense of fineness and an expression of excellent qualities which suggest her own character. Her achievements have been quietly attained, and she has gained much in her work here at Birmingham. Maries sincerity has proved her greatest charm, a charm by which she has endeared herself to all of us. Her next step will be Wells College where she will also be regarded highly, because of her sweet dispositiong they will love her there as we have here. When her name is mentioned, we will always be conscious of the saying, just to have known her has been a gain. Twentyffowr

Soupy No wonder that name Soupy brings a smile. Not the humor of it, but the love of it. Folf lowing in the steps of her sister,Soupy is a Happy the second. Laughing and gay, Soupy has most efficiently gone through two years at Birmingham, making a score of friends who can never be lost. Maybe, because of Soupy's position as candy store manager, she has acquired her sweetness, but we all know that it really was there all the time. And we mustn't forget that Soupy is near the top of the academic list. But one of the things for which we admire Soupy most of all is her taste in clothing. Not only has she quality in her clothing, but quantity. Soupy also is domestic. For one whole term, she made what is known as a howling success in the Senior Tea Room. And as though that were not domestic enough she kept her room in perfect order. Is it any wonder now that such a girl should find welcome popularity among her classmates? No, because we all love you, Soupy, and will be with you in whatever you do. Twentyftlrree

Eoin Someone to deftly slip a basketball to a more spectacular but no more skilful playerg someone to substitute with a nice soprano in the choirg someone to make first honors and not even tell anyone so, someone to proctor tactfully that is Edith Bailey. Complete naturalness and a charming lack of pretense and posing make her worthwhile. Edith never tries to seem anything that she is notg but, we know, she is a lot more than she thinks she is. It may be trite to talk about smiles, but Edith's smile is by no means trite, for she smiles because she is glad to see people, and that is the best of reasons for smiling. And then she is so enthusiastic about doing things, and she is grateful for and appreciative of so much that most people take for granted. She also is one of the remarkable people who can be nice to everyone whether she gets any results from being nice or not. The Cricket has been helped by her originalityg the Green teams, both in hockey and in basketball, owe her a vote of thanksg we Seniors owe her many, many thanks for just being nice to us. Twentyffve
