Judith Margaret Akers Judy 1953 With a golden tan carefully obtained at the family swimming pool, and a boy's ring around her neck, Judy of Akron returns to the dorm every fall. Immediately, she sets to work achieving good grades, simultaneously managing to write daily letters to the owner of the aforesaid ring. Many dormites wonder when they walk into her room, how Judy ever finishes her school work and is able to find all the tax stamps she's forever collecting from the members of our class.

She attacks her aesthetic endeavors with careless ease, but always manages to produce something with an air of pre- cision about it. Aside from this talent, Sue doesn't fit neatly in- to any labeled cubbyhole. Her opinions are her own and she would defend them to the death. She is fond of argumentation - as a way to record these opinions - and she's never been known to submit to onerous necessity without a well-chosen growl. For instance, Why do seniors have to take basket- ball? Why won't dancing do just as well? 0r better? I just don't see . . . Quite right, Sue. The world needs to be told. Beauty and the beast. A
