NATALIE LOIS JAFFE To be editor-in-chief of the Yearbook, Natalie relinquished the office of class treasurer which she had managed so well for two years. Music hath charms, and Natalie claims her share both in Glee Club and as pianist, while her Thespian talents were displayed in the portrayal of Her- mia. With her many bewildering respon- sibilities she often reminds us of a yo-yo, either all wound up or all played out.

His rare sense of humor and ever-ready laugh have delighted us throughout our high school career.

It seems that his courses in psychology and sociology have given hirn the inspiration for dedicating his life to the work of uplifting not only his classmates, but way- ward humanity in general. l l 1

CAROL LOUISE N UTILE As sophomores we were both blessed and stupefied by the arrival of Carol: blessed with her inexhaustible imagination and athletic prowess which has evoked the envy of all her team-mates and stupeiied by the cynicism of one of such tender age. We are sure that the verve which has been so strong in setting the Student Govern- ment on its way will take Carol easily over the hurdles on her determined course to a career in medicine. Sixteen SHIRLEY MAE MURRAY Shirley is the one little girl who occu- pies the one tranquil corner of the senior room and blushes excessively at the out- breaks of her more vociferous class- mates. The ''never-failing-tobreak-down- when-you're-late Putnam Avenue bus seems to be the one force capable of shattering this gentle nature and exposing Shirley's true vitality. Fortunate, indeed. will be the office which Shirley graces as a private secretary. I
