VICTOR RICHER, V There let the pealing organ blow, To the full-voiced choir below. Since Victors arrival at Hamden Hall in the eighth grade, he has lent an air of everpresent dignity to our class. It was through Victor's skill that we first heard the strains of an organ in our chapel services. And for three years in the Nativity pageant, through Victors voice the presentation of the third king has been a Richer one. To balance his musical abilities is his enthusiasm for chemistry and physics. Certainly we have all felt the benefit of his assistance in chemistry lab. THOMAS PATRICK ROCHE Dum loqulmzzr, fzlgerit lmfida aetarf' Is there an occasion for a speech-a debate, a radio contest, a proclamation or just a class-room filibuster? Page Tom! The frequency of his Latin quotations makes us suspect that he practices them on the train ride from Milford each day. But we have all become aware of Tom's natural flair for histrionics as shown by his performances as Prospero in The Tempest, as Jacques in As You Like It, and as Oberon in Midsummer Nights Dream. Tom's outstanding tellectual ability has won for him the position of valedictorian. A in- nineteen

SARAH ANNE NICHOLS ll7ell lazzglyl Jbe war at lable how to eatg She from her lip! let fall no romp of meat. Blue ones, red ones, white ones-mittens! That pert little person in the front seat is knitting again. Perhaps this is Sally's method of keeping her fingers as active as her toes. Yes, once we had the opportunity of wit- nessing her roller-skating technique, which she so assiduously practices. We've had demonstration of her aquatics, too, and wonder if someday we'll read of a year-round mermaid at Indian Neck. But whether it's by rolling or floating, we're sure Sally will brighten the office where her blond feather cut bobs. EVELYN CORWIN RADEMACHER Hail to zbee, Blizhe Spiiirf' The good mornings always begin when Ev comes in. Ev has been at Hamden Hall for many years and has proved her capabilities in many fields. On her shoulders fell the job of leading the Student Council. Ev's interest in athletics won her the job of sports editor for the yearbook and the captaincy of the cheer- leaders-a club which she introduced to Hamden Hall this year-a product of her school spirit! eighteen

V JOYCE MARIE SLATER Ulmprobe Amor, quid non morlalir pectom t'0gi.f.M Practical-joking Joyce with her mustard sandwiches is one of the main supporters of the school library. Het beautifully shaded pink blushes may be explained by her devotion to tomato juice. Joyce's dramatics have always been a wonder to us, either in class, or on the stage-this year as the spirited Ariel in The Tempest, and last year as the lively Celia in As You Like It. From the fan mail she receives we know she has many a stage-door johnny. FOLA SCHAEFFER The remedier for love .the knew by name, For .rloe war worldly-wire in that old game. A gleaming pair of glasses, a raised eyebrow, and a low stern voice counting, l-2-3-4-5-6-. It's Fola, of course, our editor-in-chief, efhciently tearing out her hairs one by one. Along with her yearbook work Fola has served on the Safety Council for two years and was general chairman of the Shakespearean play. But our Fola becomes transformed on Fridays. Her high heels can be heard clicking down the hall, and she can be seen hauling a suitcase down the path- and once more she's off for another glorious weekend. We wonder if she's managed to get reduced train fare from New Haven to West Point, Dartmouth, Columbia, etc. twenty
