H SCRIBE0l938-1939 ELIZABETH GARDNER HALL EVEN though she is graduating, Beekie wants to come back to Holton's lunior College so she can climb more steps and eat more good food, which are what she'll remember best about life here. Calmly she knits away in that Buddha-like position she can collapse into so easily. When not up to some nocturnal escapade, she is the peacernaker of rowdy '25, Beekie tells with giggles her harrowing experience at Lake Louise, Where one dark night she climbed up a mountain in evening clothes. Mountain lions and bears on the loose added to the danger of invisible boulders and precipices. Where she got her nickname Beekie we don't know-probably back in her hometown, Nashville-anyway it suits her-and here's hoping we do see her back next year. 47

THE SCRIBEo1938 ERNA IDA MARIE GRUNEWALD ERNA has been at Holton for two years and has lived in Wash- ington for seven years. Before coming here she attended the Cathedral School and the Gordon lunior High School. Although she has lived in New York a great part of her life, a southern college seems to be uppermost in her mind for next year. It may be Duke, for she has a sister and many friends thereg however, she talks of the University of Pennsylvania too. Erna's favorite pastimes are swimming and dancing, and we hear she is proficient in both. Her hobbies are collecting dolls from foreign countries and making her own phonograph records. Travel appeals to her very much, and she hopes to do a lot of it in the future. 46

THE SCRI-BE01938 1 5 l 1 l E MARSHA NAOMI HATCH ANOTHER Senate daughter. This one is from New Mexico, where she collects that unusual Indian jewelry. Marsha became Bunny five years ago on entering Holton-Arms and has remained Bunny to all Holtonites. She likes to write and to sing-except at musicales in school! Her repeating of a voice exercise after the teacher is one of the familiar sounds in the vicinity of 'l5. She collects rocks and yens to be a geologist, so next year she will study geology-which is quite an unusual vocation for a girl whom Annapolis week-ends and new hair-dos have always intrigued. Anyway she is serious about the physiography of New Mexico and found herself writing a senior essay on it this year. 48
