THE BLUE AND WHITE ELEANOR LOUISE P BRADLEY 17 years Pembroke One day Eleanor said Unprepared. Thirteen of the fifteen people in the class dropped their books and gasped. Eleanor is a peach for all that she is a brilliant scholar, and she always is willing to help a pal with a difficult passage in translation or problem in math. She rides horseback like a trouper, and plays tennis like a professional. Of all the girls in our class, she is the most likely to succeed. Good luck, Eleanor.

ETHEL IRENE BRIDGMAN MET!! 18 years Homeopathic Hospital This pleasant little miss is none other than our Et, who in her four years at Hope has won a host of friends with her sunny smile and jovial disposition. Et is a good sport and never says no when it comes to swimming, dancing, tennis or hiking, as these are her pet hobbies. Our Et intends to enter the Homeopathic Hospital upon completion of her studies at dear old Hope. We feel sure that the Homeopathic patients will be reluctant to leave after being under Et's care. We wish her good luck and God- speed, and a welcome will always await her when she wishes to favor us with a visit.

Institute Tutt, not King Tutt, but the modern Tutt is here in the disguise of Sam Broder. Not only is he the leading clarinette player in the orchestra, but he has been in the band since it was organized. Tutt performs wonders on the grid-iron, to say nothing of his powerful stroke on the swimming team. His cheerfulness, good sportmanship, and generosity have won him many friends. We recognize Tutt outside of school driving his royal chariot, steering clear of the opposite sex. ,We have often wondered about this. It is very unusual at any rate. So long, Sam! And don't forget the old gang at Hope away back in 1931. Band, 145, Leaders Club, 115, Orchestra, 135, Swimming, 125, Football, 125, Hope Circus, 135, Hopeful M errymakers, 145. 5.

THE BLUE AND WHITE IRVING JOSEPH BLAIS 18 years Business I-Iere's the quiet lad from Seekonk. Joe is another of those de- pendable' people whom teachers and pupils alike are glad to know. He has the happy faculty of getting along with people to which we attribute his success as a banker. He always has a cheery smile, and we find that he can face misfortunes with a calm dignity that so few high-school pupils can attain. Joe is no mean me- chanic, although he claims that some of his repair work has not been particularly successful. Joe's going into business when he leaves Hope, and we wish him all the breaks of the game!

BLANCHARD 18 years Brown A nine-letter word for an all-round good fellow. Yes, that's it-B-L-A-N-C-H-A-R-D. Here's a snack of pulchritude that is guaranteed to strengthen the strongest eyes and restore sight to the blind. What a boon to the class our young Apollo is! Although outside of school he is full of quips and cranks and wanton Wiles, within these solemn halls of learning he has actually succumbed several times to the wooings of the Muse, as his class-work in literature reveals. Our L'Allegro has big, sad, mischievous eyes, too, 1believe it or not, girls5. In fact Bill is the very essence of vivacity and excels in every sport, particularly swimming. As 5 the college-on-the-hill seems to be his lodestone, we hope he will i reach the acme of success, and popularity there as well as here.

BLUMENTHAL KITINY-93 18 years Katherine Gibbs Where'd you get that grin? Cute, isn't she-our Esta? She's the sunniest, most mischievous, talented little imp in creation and We all love her for it. If you've never seen Es tap dance, you've missed a treat. She's vivacity personified and just radiates It. She and Ruthie may nearly always be seen side by side, and it's funny to hear them argue about which is the taller. Es is always a good pal and a peach of a sport. She's ready to have a good time any old time but knows enough to sail along smoothly in school. S'long, Es darling, we'11 be seeing you!

'THE BLUE AND WHITE 5 PHYLLIS BUDLONG' ' I- PHIL, NPHEE PHEEH 5 17 years , Katherine Gibbs Phee Phee is the most sympathetic soul you could want. She is always understanding, and willing to help. If you get silly ideas, though, she is one of the best people to help you get them out of your system. Besides this talent for humanity, she is very gifted in the art of writing poems and rhymes. In fact, all her friends are positive that she is a budding Edna St. Vincent Millay, the second. 'Some day she is going to take dozens of pads and pencils and go way ofi' into the country, somewhere. When she comes back to civilization, she'll have a whole book of interesting poems all ready for the publisher. Then all her classmates will say: I told you so! Phil,'Told girl, We wish you luck and literary fame.

BUFFIN TON HBOB7! 17 years Duke University Bob is one of those lucky fellows who always seem to enjoy life. His bright, happy smile and his bright yalla sweater are land- marks at dear ole Hope. His ambition is to be a great Journal- ist. We can't imagine our Robert as anything else. We're with you, Bob! He derives the greatest pleasure in debating. Can he de- bate? And how! As many a teacher here has learned to her sorrow. But we mustn't forget to mention his studies. As a student of foreign languages, Bob is right there. We got fine marks together until the teacher moved his seatg then he got fine marks all alone. Alas! I lost my interpreter. Bob intends to go to Duke. Those Southern Beauties are waiting with bated breath for the arrival of our light-haired Romeo. Be good to them, Bob!

The young lady of the dimpled smile, charming manner, and Witty tongue. Many are the mornings that Pearlie' manages to get to her room before the fatal bell rings, but even in her rush she is always composed, neat, and dressed in good taste. Pearl is well liked by all her classmates for just being her natural, unassuming self. Swimming is all up. Pearl is a good pal and sport, and may the standard she has set during her high school course follow her in all her endeavors.
