H SCRIBE01938-1939 JEAN ALLYS DAVIS JEAN is one of tive children in a family known as the J. Davises -the father, Senator James J. Davis of Pennsylvania. Holton also has Joan and Jewel. For ten years a student here, Jeanie has been a member of H.A.A., on hockey and basketball teams, leader of the Blues this year, one-time president of the Dramatic Club, and class president twice. Intense and irnpetuous Jean has afforded us many laughs in classroom as well as on the stage. Members of the physiography class say she punctuates her recitations by dropping books. They recall the time she teetered on the edge of her chair trying to think of an answer and in her absorption teetered completely off! Next year she hopes to attend Vassar College. 37

T H ANNE PAGE COACHMAN MANY a time has Miss Yates' table jovially teased Pagie for eating slowly, for she does everything in her own tempo. Appealingly cute in personality and appearance, Page is surprisingly studious and has succeeded in meeting the require- ments ot the senior class, which is an accomplishment for a one-year girl. Her Pittsburgh roommate pronounces her intelli- gent about everything but the Civil War-Page still sticks up for the Southland. Cccasionally, one can hear her squealing in Betty Clarkson's room about some current social happening of her native Jacksonville. She loves its palm trees and sunshine and says she hopes someday she will marry some one ot its boys and find her place in that sun. 36 ESCRIBE019381939

T H DORIS ANNE DEFENDERFER FOR thirteen years DA. has dashed around I-lolton's halls. Here since kindergarten days, she leaves as definite an im- pression upon the minds ot those who have known her as any member of the graduating class. There is no one who has shown more school spirit. As one of her classmates said, I'll always think ot her flailing the air. She's a good athlete, a member of HJ-LA., and important to the basketball and hockey teams. She loves riding, tennis, driving her car-and hates things domestic. She loves movement, activity and it isn't easy tor her to be grown-up. Next year she hopes to go to Bradford lunior College and then on to a university. Her idea is to study medicine in order to be a doctor's assistant someday. 38 ESCRIBE01938-
