T H i A I BILLIE BYRD WEST WITH us first in the lower school, Billie Byrd returned to Holton after a rigid convent life. She has been here for the past two years where she finds outlet for expression in being one of Miss Happer's most agile dancers fwitness her famous back flip on the dancing pagel. Her daintiness and grace have been featured in the Dramatic Club productions. Such feminine roles as the heartless coquette Columbine in the Watteau play and Ann Boleyn in The Wives of Henry VIII are Billie's tour de force. Her plans for the future are a trip abroad, a debut, and marriage-all of which seems exactly right for glamorous Billie Byrd. 68 ESCRIBEo1938-

H 1 SCRIBE01938-1939 l , KATE WHEAT THOMAS FOR the last six generations Wheat's family has lived in Alex- andria, Virginia. For five and a half years Wheat has contributed her strength of character to her class and the school. A girl of high principles and strong convictions-her ambition is to be surrounded by the beautiful. Typical of her is her love for old silver, china, and lace. After two years of thorough Work in The Scribe's advertising department, Wheat has been an exceptionally fine advertising manager in her senior year. On the basketball team and hockey team for four years, she has received many athletic awards including the hockey blazer last year. She, however, seriously plans to study along literary and artistic lines, though not until after four years at Bryn Mawr College. I 67
