H SCRIBEo1938-1939 i CHARLOTTE ELIZABETH RIDDICK CHARLOTTE is another Navy junior who comes to Washington after having lived in such widely different places as New Orleans, Haiti, Honolulu, and Boston. At Holton for two years she has acquired a reputation for being reliable and con- scientious. She admits a definite prejudice against strapless evening gowns and hoop skirts, and a definite yen for travel- ing, which it would seem her life in the Navy ought to satisfy. She collects old jewelry, loves to swim and to dance. Next year she will go back to New Orleans, where she was born, for her debut. Holton stands out in her memory for the great interest taken by all the teachers in the girls. 61

THE SCRIBEo1938 KATHARINE POOLE REEVES KATIE, during her six years at Holton, has been active in athletics, as was her sister Anne before her, and has been on the basketball and hockey teams. ln addition to this she has been a member of our Glee Club. She likes the first period in the library, when there isn't the usual sanctity about it, and she can let her gift for chatter have its way. Among her dislikes she lists excess sarcasm and banana splits. Her ambition is to be an alumna! In commenting on her career at Holton, she gives us this: My school life--it's a tragic story of a girl too social-minded to work hard, and too exuberant to be repressed. Make what you can of it! With all that, we note she plans to attend Connecticut College next year. 60

THE S MADELEINE MARIE RIZIK SHE was born in Washington, but has lived in Paris and Beirut, Syria. Her nickname, Mad, is as unusual as it is untrue, for her disposition is even. She loves clothes, travel, and avocado pears-despises cats and long journeys in buses. Her immediate future after graduating from Holton?-a college in Paris, she doesn't know which one. In the more distant future she hopes to be a professional dress buyer. She has been in Holton for nine years, and she remembers best the merited scoldings received from Miss Fran Way back in the sixth grade! They were not in vain, for as Mrs. Holton says, she has been one of the most conscientious students in this year's History of Art class. 62 CRIBEo1938-
