Marg Olamphvll Butler. Pennsylvania fOne 'Year and a Halfj Glee Club, '31, '32 Cold Hockey Squad, '32 Class Donor, '32 Corridor Proctor, '32 Good humor only teaches charms to last. MARY One of the most individual persons in our school is Mary. Mary has ideas of note and these ideas are expressed with great emphasis. In other words, Mary has what is commonly known as a mind of her own. She is an excellent judge of character and how often we have suffered when Mary has goodfnaturedly pointed out some true defect in our character. Mary is able to express herself with an accuracy and straightforwardness of which we are all envious. We are not surprised to hear that Mary is fond of reading, No wonder she has such an extensive vocabulary and no wonder her knowledge is so general. Perhaps her readf ing has developed in her, her rather subtle sense of humor. The people who are closely assof ciated with Mary are kept amused by her running fire of comments and quick, witty ref torts. Surprisingly enough, Mary has an unbounded knowledge of sea life. But we know the source of thisfher summers spent on a yacht. Perhaps this knowledge of sea life accounts for Mary's interest in the Annapolis Naval Academy. Twentyfnine

There is no mistaking that. When one entireclass decided that she should be its stateliest Senior, something must have prompted their decision. just look at Nancyffyou'll see. What would Miss Perine do if she didn't have Nancyls eyes to rave ahout, and her smile, and her fine carriage, and her gentle air? Now, Nancy is a girl who is fortunate in being ahle to enjoy herself without losing her dignity. Example of that statement was given the night of the elections when Miss Christopher was seen crawling, with a friend, down the study hall floor. Even then, we caught a glimpse of dignity. Nancy thrives on tuna fish, loves driving a car, is not affectionate with girls, and is very domestic. She enjoys sewing, cooking, and dusting, in short, she would love to make a happy home for someone. And, believe me, she will not lack the opportunity, judging from what I hear. Furthermore, she is very conscientious, frank, honest, and always a true friend. A gentle womanf' that's Nancy. Thwty
