THE SCRIBEol938 FLOYCE RULE BURCHFIELD F LOYCE was born in Ruleville, Mississippi, Which, incidentally, has been built up by the Rule family. The streets have been named after the children, and curiously enough Floyce lives on Floyce Street. By nature she is friendly and chatty and her two years at Holton have endeared her to everyone, Bancroft especially. Floycekshould never have anything to Worry about, but her conscientiousness makes her set high standards that she is out to reach. Horseback riding and swimming are her favorite sports-basketball and hockey she thinks are too energetic. After graduating from Holton, Floyce intends to enter the University ot Mississippi, but as to any other future plans she says, Let nature take its course. 32

H SCRIBEo1938-1939 LYDIA MOORE BRYANT Sl-IES Tippa to us-that real Texas girl. Her leisurely manner and slow drawl, her snail's pace and clroll humor have caused many a laugh. T. says I'l1 always remember the time my mother told me I was going to have a birthday soon. I went all around the house looking for one in dresser drawers and magazines. Here at Holton she's been looking for things too- especially ads for The Scribe. In fact she and Shallberg have covered the waterfront. Ranches, horses, dances, and people with a sense of humor appeal to her-but oral reports, snoring, and eight hundred-page books give her goose flesh. After Holton, it's back to Texas, where she may attend the University. 31

H ESCRIBE01938-1939 ELIZABETH BURGESS BETTY was born in Boston and lived there until her family moved to Washington three years ago. It is characteristic of Betty that in her first year here she should have entered into school activities-Glee Club, Dramatic Club,-and last year she became a member ot The Scribe staff, The Scroll, and the hockey team. Initiative and Yankee ingenuity make her an invaluable ad-getter. She punctuates her mad scramble to get everything done With l'm so happy or the reverse. Betty's summers are spent in traveling and collecting that prodigious dingle-dangle bracelet with its charms from every country. lf you ask her Where she is going next year, she will give that big, prolonged smile and say- Why Smith, of course! 33
