For five years, the school has coped with our conventionally radical period of adoles- cence, and our adopted mothers of erudition have guided us calmly, sensibly, even cheerfully to our pres- ent venerable position of young-women-about-to-commence''. When we shed our straps in 1955, Mrs. jordan greeted us with that impish smile and laugh so indicative of her famed Southern charm. With that, our mounting fears of upper school disappeared, and we laughed Qand screamed a bitl through a record-breaking junior ac year. Of course, Mrs. Jordan laughed too until we embarked upon a ''make-study-hall-lively campaign. At that point, she decided she'd better stay with us another year to keep us in line. We were overjoyed when she told us she was graduating to freshman year with us. We were ostracized that year to the other end of the hall, but we found our way daily to Mrs. jor- dan's English class on the third floor. There we met the honorable Mr. Shakespeare for the first time in our reading of As You Like It and Julius Caesar, which we also produced in the classroom with Mrs. jordan, of course, as our appreciative audience. With her censoring of our first class song at Christmas that year, we won first prize and thus gained the respect of the upperclassmen. We continued winning and Mrs. Jordan was always behind us with a smile. When june 1957 came, we were reluctant to leave our secluded, private niche and our mother of two years, but then, she reminded us, we were growing up. Yes, but that didn't dull the edge of our ebullient, often mischievous spirit! Mrs. LaChance found us in big study hall, but she had a hard time keeping us there. Her down - to- earth common sense with her cheerful smile made us realize eventually that the primary purpose of rules was not violation of them. Through her, we learned to use a bit of discretion in our display of enthusiasm, but not without trial and error. In her history classes, we became familiar with the world situation then and now , explained in clear, unbiased terms which helped us immensely in developing our way of thinking. Indirectly, Mrs. LaChance showed us our own importance in the world, and immediately we decided to behave civilly. She sent us on to junior year, hopeful that our futures were bright and would bring eventual reward. As juniors, we received our basic introduction to noblesse oblige and late .hours of y:mx-Q-b, inverte- brates, and MacBeth. Miss Bretschneider not only stimulated our intellects through studies of Chaucer, Blake, Wordsworth, and Tennyson, but also she never stopped giving us advice outside of the classroom. College was a formidable thought and Miss Bret, through years of experience, was a competent consultant. She was consulted so much -on any number of subjects she finally made us write our requests on paper. She too spent what spare time she had coralling errant juniors from the halls into study hall. She also spent a good deal of her time in Miss Waltemeyer's ofiice pleading our cause and entertained us after lunch with tales of her cats and English summers. Her final words to us in June were, They told me I really had a handful when I got you, but, you know, I've actually grown quite fond of you. We'd grown quite fond of her too, and, as seniors, we still stop in for an occasional chat on the third floor. As seniors, we hardly ever have those moments to chat. It's Mrs. Lawyer who sees to it that we accom- plish what's to be done. Mrs. Lawyer had been our friend and teacher for years. She was always organizing something like schedules or Thursday morning study hall it seemed to us, but she always had time for her seniors , and we are proud to say we are no exception. Not only does she keep us relatively quiet in Senior Dining Room, she is a delightful companion at the lunch table. Her interest in us never ceases, nor does her concern about our future plans and present actions. She is the one who stresses style and polish in our public appearances such as Senior Play or the Christmas Luncheon and then beams with pride when the final curtain goes down or when we win the class song. She is the one who gives up her free periods to drill us in math for our SAT's then delights at the rise in scores. In June and in years to come, when we recall our Laurel days, our class advisers will stand out among our worthy and wise faculty. They endured a great deal. We hope the progress we have made and hope to continue making compensates for their battle scars. 5 lffl Io lfiglll: laura ,lane llarr, Christie Andrews, Ar! liriiiorx, Anne hillflllillf, I,il1'rro'y Iffiitor, Connie Brett, Iitrxirrrwv rllnzznycr.

EDITORIAL lt was in Nlay ol' last year that the Laurel Leaves Board ol' H359 and lllfill met for the lirst time linthusiasticallv we crystallized our fantastic ideas lor our yearbook. Laurel Leaves was to undergo a complete metarnorphosis to reproduce successlully the spirit ol' the Class of l960. .Xs well always been recognized lor our unregimented llare lor the new and exciting, the year- book theme seemed simply to be down with trllllitiolllu Xlost ironically when September arrived and the Laurel Leaves Board began to apply their inspirations. the try was olten lint we can't do that! lt's never been done before! This was cspet ially amusing to Nliss Hotchkiss who had listened to our early declaration ol' non-conformity. Now it is lfebrttary, and the Board is struggling with layouts. writeups and letterless type- writers to meet their copy-due date. lVe have held to our 'Knew and exciting theme to a certain degree. XVe hav e introduced various innovations: we've relegated the seniors to the back of the book tlor climactic ellectj . lVe've changed the style ol' the events ol' the year in order to better capture the intangible essence ol' our last school year, and we've redesigned many layouts for variety's sake. .Xs we complete the final work, we realize that the purpose in publishing the year- book is tltll to outdo what's been done before but to produce, to the best ol' our ability, a colorful and interesting portrait of Laurel lile in l959 and l960, Despite our general disorganifation in getting the book to press, we hope that, through our pictures. our writing style, and our art work inspired by the modern lines and blocks of Mond- rien, we have accomplished our purpose. May this book bring to each of you a tear or a laugh in twenty years! LA UREL LEA VES BOARD EDITOR ............... .... lv Iary Kay Vaughan BUSINESS MANAGER .... .... BUSINESS BOARD .... .

Il-ronwyn Hurd lures Mrs. Hines' lunch table into 'buying junior Ac cookies to increase the United Appeal contribution. On the day of the occasion, Greens and Whites in traditional rivalry sat on opposite sides of the chapel, first listening to Dorothy Mackenzie ex- plain the function of the AA., then to Susie Crile and Beth Del'uy announce the new team members. Here each team's cheering grew louder and louder until the singing of the team songs sounded like the entire Union army singing Battle Hymn of the Republic. The only place to continue the exhibi' tion was outside, so the school divided into teams and rotated from line soccer, to dodge ball, to volley ball. lVhen everyone was exhausted, they heseiged the dining room where a picnic lunch was being served. X'Vhen the sixth period bell rang, the new girls were totally old, and the spirit was subdued but not suppressed. ln the middle of October, Susie and Clare ap- peared with new United Appeal plans. There were to be no class projects. The stress was on the in- dividual and her sacrificing of the purchase of a Kingston Trio record for a needier cause. At the rally, spirit mounted through the singing of United Appeal songs and the presentation of skits. The Freshmen with their take-off on Ed Murrow's 1'm'son Io Person stole first prize. Had the -faculty entered the competition, they would have had an Academy Award! They opened that sacred door ol' the Faculty Room for all to see the smoke-filled den behind it, where Mrs. jordan and Mrs. l-lines were doing calisthenics, Miss Hotch- kiss was drinking espresso, Mrs. Lawyer was danc- 32 ing the ha-cha-cha, and others were acting equallv unappropriately. Wfhen Miss XfValtemeyer appeared with her flower cart, only Katherine Cornell could have matched her performance as, with great eclat, she presented armloads of flowers. Miss Gerfen brought the entire faculty back to earth with her words for the needy. They then joined in giving their monthly earnings and sang a song for sweet charity's sake. The school was still laughing when they adjourned to the dining room for cider and doughnuts. In the week that followed, class collectors chased after contributions and plotted ways of raising their total. The junior Acs were the first to have l00 l, and, much to everyones delight, spent the week selling cookies to raise their contribution. At the final gathering of the whole school when the total Laurel contribution was read, the Seniors came out with the highest amount per capita, but what was most important was the fact that Laurel had once again gone over the top. Innovations had proved successful! The Seniors planned something new again for the next weekend. They honored their little sisters, the Junior Acs, with a party at Hiram House. After a Senior-prepared lunch of sloppy joes, groups scattered, exploring the grounds or playing games. The Seniors thought they'd passed the stage where egghand-spoon races were fun. They were mistaken. .Xt any rate, it seemed a real tri- umph to receive the lollipop prizes.

Q .'Xt the Thanksgiving chapel, Reverend O'Hear from Saint Paul's spoke. The school sang a special anthem as did the Choir. .fX preliminary example of the approaching Carol Service, it awakened Laurel girls' minds to the truth of Mr. Klauss' threat that Christmas was near. He called extra Glee Club and Choir rehearsals and crossed his lingers that the school would come through. The Music and .-Xrt Departments were seasonally busy, and the three upper classes were practicing their class songs. The Seniors had just about losthope until Nlr. Klauss played their song. .Xt eight o'clock, XVednesday night, December lfi, the school in starched, white shirts, clean skirts or colorful robes, marched into the chapel for their hrst evening Carol Service. Traditionally, they sang angelically, and there was something about the candlelighted room which provoked beautiful tones. Mr. Klauss smiled! .Xs a result, the Friday morn- ing service was not anticlimactic. Seeing familiar faces among the .Xlumnae and finally being over- come by the true Christmas spirit, the school sang as tunefully as they had XVednesday night. Following the performance, the three upper classes cast off their ethereal serenity and once more became gay l.aurel girls for the .-Xlumnae Luncheon. .Xs always, the gathering was a delight- ful occasion for guests and faculty as well as stu- dents. But, it was a decisive event for the girls- the presentation of class songs. The Sophomores began the contest with a melodi- ous declaration of their superiority. .Xdored for their intelligence, enthusiasm, attractiveness, they had evidently frightened their teachers into submis- sion, .Xt any rate, they overwhelmed the audience as the Seniors. fearing for their title, crossed their fingers. The -Iuniors began their song on a nostalgic note, anticipating only one more year within the ivy- clad walls, but gaily embarked upon their twelve- year Laurel history to the appropriate tune of 'l'zi'r'l1'f' Days of Cl1r1'sl111r1s. t .i.. 36 'Qs Candle-lighters, Carol john and Cathy XX'ood begin the Carol Service .X determined Senior Class, wearing red bows reminiscent of the Eloise of freshman year, de- scended the steps and sarcastically told the audience of the futility of their going on in this Atomic .Xge. They were going back where they could be they. They never got there: they got the prize instead, which seemed worth their going on as it was their third and final victory in the Song Contest. Triumphantly, they left that afternoon to sleep for two weeks. The fact that they did for didn't5 was evident in the half-shut eyes but wild voices relating vacation incidents on Monday morning january Af.

Su: St itntt GW MPS Mugwumps is the Laurel contingent of a mixed fob, dear! organimtion. Five times a year, the Laurel members actually go to dinner with seven Reserve boys, and afterward'they do more than even talk-they debate! For shame! Usually, they keep the topic lily-white and stimulating, but once they even argued birth control! Strange as it may seem, that was the most interesting meeting of the year. Did you know the effect of vour liver on population increase? Most unusual! The infor- mation, however, was not considered too reliable. because it was not found in Time Alrzgniine. The radicals who prefer The Nation and other publi- cations for their sources add a touch of inspiring acid to the debate, but their points must generallv be subdued. YVhen such a topic as Should we abolish all institutions from the government to the ARP for the sake of the individual? is sugf gested, the meeting is quickly adjourned for fear of positive fanaticism.

Aside from the crack of hockey sticks. the blast of the whistle, and the usual hoarse vells and streams of pain, there are inevitably the squash of wet tennis shoes. and the dull plop of the left half as she lands heavily on the left wing. These girls are endowed with spirit, enthusiasm, and warm blood. This vear's team was hindered bv rain, sleet, and- inehes of mud, but it did see some action the weekend the Buffalo team visited Laurel.

The title Laurel girl has a favorable connotation of community and world participation. In the Cleveland area, Laurel has long been recognized as an outstanding supporter of the COHlIllllI1lIy. Each fall a group of Laurel girls plan and execute a United Appeal Drive at school. The drive, which has become the most spirit-promoting event of the year, emphasizes individual and class contributions. Everyone is anxious to exceed last year's total. This year the traditional carnival usually held to raise money was dropped in favor of an all- school sock hop. This innovation proved most successful. Although the United Appeal Drive is the only community activity involving the school as a whole, every Laurel junior has a chance to explore the field of social work with the junior Volunteer Program. The juniors Choose their jobs with the aid of Miss Gerfern, faculty chairman, Miss Tomlin, a former member of the Laurel faculty and now head of volunteers at Highland View Hospital, and Miss McKinley, from tl1e Volunteer Bureau. Each junior works a few hours each week leading a little girls' cooki11g class at a neighborhood house, answering phone calls, running errands, feeding patients at a hospital, or teaching a class at the Art Museum. The work is not only a new and different experience, but it can be an archway to a social career. It was with great pride that Laurel accepted the honor of being chosen tl1e school to represent the Cleveland area at a youth conference with President Eisenhower at the Whitehouse in March. Sally Criesinger will be the delegate. On a wider scale, Laurel's Charities Committee pursues its objectives through the sale of candy, mascots, stationery and Gondolier hats. This organization supports Laurel's foster child, Nicki Evangelou. Tl1e school, as well as individuals, often receives letters from Nicki. Wlieii read in chapel, these letters offer a cheerful beginning to a school day. The Charities Committee has so far confined its profits to Nicki's support. However. this year they JR VICE have lwegun a l'und for the sponsoring of a foreign student. Their goal Inav not he reaehed for several vears, hut when it is. Laurel girls will appreeiate more lullv the reason for charging ten Cents for a uiekel eaudv har. .Xlthough the lunior Couneil on Ulorld Affairs is not a eharitahle Ofgllllilllllflll, it is an informing and valuahle one to high sehool students. The l,aurel group, headed hv Cathv Fullerton and ad- vised hx Nlrs. l.aChauee, ineets several tinies a vear to see filnrs and to hear foreign students speak ahout their honielands. ln the spring. l.anrel sends dele- gates to the Mock United Nations Asseinhlv. where each school represents a eountrv. The delegates are divided into various discussion groups hefore thev gather as a roinplete hodv to :unend the ITN. eharter or to deeide on the fate of Red China. lt is an oetasion anticipated hy Junior Couneil niein- hers. lt is reineuihered not onlv for the gav rosttunes, like the ones l,aurel girls wore last vear when thev represented India, hut also for the per- ception and awareness gained through the stiniuf lating discussions. The Nfugwunips. I.aurel's Contingent of the senior Reserve-l.aurel dehating group, also tend to provoke stimulating discussions. Perhaps this is heeause thev have never had a formal dehate: thev sitnplv prelier to discuss suth suhieets as lleCaulle's .Xlgeriau poliev or the value of nuelear testing. The Kantagree Cluh, formed last vear hv a group oi' juniors and guided hv Mrs, Frank Uihle. proved so suuessful that it was revitalized this vear with new nieuihers and frequent dehates with the l'.S. Forensic' Soc-ietv. Although the topies of dis' russion are hroader than those of hlugwunips. the Kantagree inenrhers adhere strietlv to parliamentary procedure. Ulhether a I.aurel girl's interest in eonnnunitv or world lil'e is one of intelleetual euriositv or erusading good will. she does not liniit her mind ruerelv to at-tivities within l.aurel's halls. YVhether it is through a eoutrihution to the United Appeal, the purchase of a eandv har after lunch, or the hour spent feeding a patient at Highland View, a l.aurel girl feels the iniportanee of her own indi- vidual partieipation in the world of todav and hegins to realize her vital plaee in that world. yi i 5 i Xliss 1.4-ileu.

This was demonstrated by their prohtable bake sale and their skit, both for the beneht of the llnited Appeal.

FRESHMA CLA SS The Freshmen, as a Class. seem to have a knack for getting blamed lor anything that goes wrong at their end of the hall, but after talking with the Freshmen, individually, the realilation grows that this is a group of girls with above normal intelligence and Creativity. Even from the anonymous depths of their two private study halls come ideas which will lead them, and have led them to fame and fortune. This fall, fame Came their way through their prize-winning United Appeal skit. and the reward was a fortune added to their contribution to the drive. The Freshmen aren't letting themselves get bogged down in conformity. Fven their non-Conformity is of a speeial. unique hrand. Sometimes they put themselves in difheult positions, hut their loyal class ofheers diplomatically smooth over any rough spots even while making new plans to curb their energetic' Classmates. The Freshmen have Confidence in themselves, too. They ap' pear very mueh at home when they invade big study hall, for they know that next year they will have desks to fall their own among the upperclassmen.

This has been, for you, a year of growth and accomplishment. Undoubtedly you have surprised yourselves by your ability to rise to the challenges of the senior year and to assume the leadership of the school. It has been most gratifying to me to see this happen. I am confident that you will rise equally to the tasks ahead of you, to the special responsibilities of womanhood and of adult citizenship. You have left your school a little better for your presence here. May the world of college and community be richer because of the idealism and energy you bring to it. The green and white uniform became you well: the qualities of honor and courtesy and dutifulness that grew under that uniform will always become you. I thank each of you for your receptiveness, your friend- liness andeyour loyalty to Laurel. As alumnae, you have always a secure welcome. I shall be eager to learn of your triumphs and happiness. May life bless you richly. Aifectionately yours. Miriam E. Waltemyer J CHRISTINE ANDREWS H755 Christie is a smooth-skinned, big-eyed I.otus Eating Amphibian. For years she has been sleeping notoriously around the darker corners of Laurel- espeeially near the paint sink in the Art Room and that spidery corner near Senior Room. She is detinitely NOT a work of nature. 'l'he premise that she is not a work of man could be debated. She looks mostly like a work of art-EI Greco? NOT Fra Angelico. It's most likely one of the Black Arts neeromancy a just plain sorcery. Christie cannot help being sophisticated. Fresh- man year she was sophisticated. She is even more sophistieatetl now, One eannot imagine her withk out it.

Christie was once worried by the paleness of her complexion. She thought she looked unhealthy. so she increased the daily amount of eye make-up and lipstick. It may be noticed that this seemed so natural that the dress committee has never tried to make her remove it. O imitators, you slavislz herd. NANCY LOUISE BAKER 1954 Nancy Baker has beautiful teeth, which one notices often because she usually is found talking, shouting, smiling or hysterical. Her smothered giggles hll study hall. When one begins to notice smirking looks pass between her and her ac- complices, one knows that she is about to bury her head in her blazer and shake with delight for some unexplained reason. Nancy thrives on mystery. She and her clique often converse in a complicated version of pig Latin, which sends their classmates into furies of frustration. This clandestine communication is most obvious in gym class, when, during the excitement of organizing a game of Dead Bug, an emergency such as the return of Miss Stevens con- fronts her. Edpo barface! cries Nancy. and all is well again. Nancy is a girl of many tempers. We have seen her shout. stomp, laugh, tremble, gasp, and stagger with relief. All her emotions seem to radiate from her thoughts at the time. Perhaps in some far-off paradise, she may be able to buzz, carefree and content, around some golden streets in her red T-bird. Alspi Barface. Forbidden things have a secret mmm' charm. A lmrrmai LAURA jA E BARR 1955 Although Laura Jane is the proud possessor of Eve steeds, she is rarely found on any of them. She is still classified as one of the country girls of the Senior Class, however. Five days a week, the blue bird of happiness somehow manages to travel from Chagrin to Laurel. Other people commute too, but in nine minutes? Laura jane can often be seen at the Cleveland Hopkins Airport, waiting to board the plane to Oxford, Ohio, A certain Harry I-I. seems to main tain residence there during the winter season. In the future, Laura jane plans to major in animal husbandry. She also has acting abilities as was shown by her portrayal of Irma in the Senior Play. Is she really as innocent as all that? Although she's famed for these extra-curricular doings, she's also quite dexterous in the Laurel Art Department, She made Laurel Leaves Room her permanent study hall residence where she and Christie so masterfully created the art work in this book, lt is to be remarked that Laura was the only one who insisted on cleaning up the hurricane struck room. N0 matter what she is doing, she has an un- varying twinkle in her eye and a lively sense of humor. She also has curiosity. Not many people wonder what color their hair really is. d' is more d' ' mme than zz mermaid. CONSTANCE ANN BRETT l954 Connie is business manager of Laurel Leaves, which means for one thing, that she is forever trying to get money. Her feet get sore from walking from one uncertain merchant to another trying to get ads. Her voice becomes hoarse from pleading with seniors to have their pictures taken. She is still prone to nightniares about having to address another eight hundred letters to advertisers. Altogether. it was very trying, bitt she managed business very well. She has many favorites: the school colors of green and white, a school organization called Alpha Theta, and red Calthough she rarely wears the colorj, Somehow she manages to connect these favorites by burdening the postman with boxes of .cookies for New l-lampshire. Connie wants to be a physical therapist. and she practices her art during softball and basketball 'seasons on aching team members, that is, if she's not playing left field or varsity basketball herself at the time. During the summer, she lives at Lake Chautauqua where water skiing is one of the main sports. She's very good at this, however, there was that time she decided to take the ski jump. Oh well, it' at lirst you don't succeed .... Who needed the physical therapy then? Besides team strategy, she has many plans and schemes. For instance, she is very interested in educational experience. After all, wouldn't a girl student at Dartmouth be educational? A pleasant face is I1 silent recom mendationf' FRANCES ANN BROOKS 1956 Fran is a member of Mr. Klaus's Sweet Sixteen also known as choir. Actually, she isn't late all the time as she would have us believe-just most of the time. When she doesn't have choir, she races into study hall with a breathless Guess what! and we learn all the latest news. Last summer, she was a riding counselor at Ah-tod-a-nac Camp. The work was fun, but the time off was more fun. Fran loves camp, and, as school drags on, the thoughts of next summer there grow more and more enticing. She reminisces especially about the pizza there. As a tnatter of fact, she talks about food anywhere! When she's not hungry, she resolves to diet, but then, after second helpings of everything at lunch, she decides she has to have a candy bar after lunch. Can't have any vitamin or energy deficiencies, she says. Chocolate is her favorite kind of candy, and she's an expert on the subject after last summer. It seems she was sent a box of melted chocolate creams. Unfortunately, a day in the deep freeze didn't help much. Fran wants to be a social worker. She should be very good at it-she enjoys helping all of us with our many problems. Sw, we are a nest of singing birdsf' ANNE ELIZABETH BURGER 1951 Anne is an individual devoted to the pursuit of a current state of casualness whether she be in faded blue jeans, a Laurel uniform, or all dressed for THE dance or THE party. For years, ties with U. S. have been quite close- let's say like father-daughter, but junior year she found a new tie at l'.S. and now displays it in the form of a U.S. ring. There is some debate as to whether Anne is famous for her father or he is famous for her. The Laurel half of a nursery story-she's com- monly known as raggedy-Anne. This also implies Anne's great love for Children, of which she will probably have no less than twelve. Even on Monday mornings, Anne's cheery personality is awake, although her condition is probably best expressed by the '4Help Stamp Out Mondays button she proudly wears. Anne loves just about everything from apple pie to Zulu hunting songs. There's no stopping this girl once she gets started. She's always moving . , . moving . . . . moving. Hongry rooster don't cackle w'en he fine a wumf' RACHEL ANNE GALE l95l Rache has achieved a kind of fame for her original and amusing facial expressions. She also has a unique wav of standing with her toes pointed in. Her sense of humor and ready wit have made her a well liked member of the class. During her school career, Rachel has spent many an artistic hour in the art studio and many an agonized hour in gym, as she is one of the most shouted at gym participants. In the summer Rache is either in the Sunshine State or in the Hunt Club pool. As a result she returns to school in the fall with a gorgeous and envied tan and! yes, Rachel, those ure' freckles! She is also envied for her ability lo eat and eat without showing it. Rache has been known to attend Reserve activi- ties, and she enjoys tlaunting a black and orange scarf. She is the proud possessor of a little yellow car, which exeryone is crazy about, radio or no radio. Although her ear is apt to stall at the wrong moments and is practically blown oil the road by trucks approaching from the other di- rection, it has great virtue in that it may be parked anywhere-yes auywherel Rache is seldom seen without Mary Marsh and xice-versa. Between the two of them, they make fun. have fun and are fun. The Art of pleasing consists in being pleased.

After all, she said, propping her feet on hall-table, the time for sophistication has arrived. Well, thank heavens it either passed her by or she changed her mind because we couldn't afford to lose grinning Kitty to the blase set! For instance, what would the stark halls be like without her poster committee's courageous red, orange, green, red, yellow, and blue creations? How could class meetings function without Kitty's fantastic suggestions that start everything rolling? How could a senior uni- form be decided on without Kitty's modeling? fjust look at this horrible thingy. She said, I look like a house on wheels! Who else would brave the gym department by starting the singing in the locker room and then winning us back into grace by an expansive grin and an Oh come now. We're not doing any harm . . P And who else could put that perfectly agonized look on Miss Slade's face by breaking two softball bats each spring? Who would the Freshmen have to complain to? And who else knows so much about what teacher was where and with whom. Let's face it! We can't lose her because she's honest plain fun! It is not lawful or proper to know everything. BARBARA C OUL TON 1956 Barbie is a happy little girl who never forgets to remind the class that Friday is four days from Monday. three days from Tuesday, and two days from Wednesday. Actually, Barbie does manage to do some work during the week. Besides taking care of every job she has volunteered for, she is always ready to absorb a book of Keats' Poetry. She also likes such diverse works as those of Salvador Dali. Barb gives a good part of her loyalty to Laurel. What's left, however, she bestows upon Heights and that old Roxboro gang. No one knows when or exactly how Barb became a member, but she stands straight and tall protecting every last comrade against the world. Plerhaps you believe Barb spends all of her time looking for fun. We, however, have heard rumors to the contrary. It seems that she worries as much as the rest of us about Spanish grades and spends half of her time quaking before the Sefiora. She is also a staunch member of the Laurel Leaves Board. In fact, Barb has been so busy running from study hall to Laurel Leaves Room that she has little time to pursue knitting, bridge or sliding down the Mayfield Hill. If she is in Laurel Leaves Room the chances are that she isn't alone but surrounded by those curious little people searching for the latest news of the Heights crowd in which Barb reigns with queenly grace. Like King, like people. . ,W ft Wx, SUSAN CRILE 1948 All you see is Susie's smile, or else you hear her laugh. which is all very nice, because a laugh and a smile are so characteristic of Susie. Beneath the facial radiance, there is strong determination. She sticks to her resolutions to get up at six a. rn, to study for a history test, not to eat lunch except for dessert, and above all to get a parking place close to school. Really, you can't evade it-Susie is one of those- an All-American girl with the All-American spirit. Queen of the baseball-football-hockey field, her agility and enthusiasm stun us all. Captain of the ever-victorious Green Team, she is unable to speak for a week following each team game. That's one of the reasons she headed the United Appeal Drive. A more ebullient personality could not be found. Why she's even fond of Monday mornings! Outside Laurel's halls, Susie's notable retinue chases her from Laurel to Theresa's to Warncr's, to Severance Hall, to C0l'C0IA21l1'S, to Georgetown. to the gas station, to New Haven, to Aspen, to the hockey game, to Italy, to Hawaii, to Shaker Square. and back again. By car, aqua lung, or plane for footy, Susie beats them all. W All thing is gay that is green' f ' ELIZA BETH DEP U T l955 Here's a girl with many passions. One minute she's eulogizing the foremost personality in America today, XVoodie Held, and the next she is in a swoon over the Kingston Trio. She doesn't limit herself to sitting still and talking about them. either. As a matter of fact. Beth never sits still. She has tied up the dorm telephone talking to Woodie, as well as formed a Laurel fan club for him. and she is notorious for her active reaction to the Kingston Trio in person. Among her passions is the glorious White Team, which she leads with banners waving. She's forever swinging and vaulting. WVhen she's not chasing Ehrman with a hockey stick. she can be found making goals. baskets. and homeruns. This paragon of coordination also has her philo- sophical side. She went to Lake Forest with a year's supply of potato chips which sufliced for the car ride. When she returned, she headed enthusi- astically for the Sloan-Kettering Institute to aid in cancer research by injecting mice. But Beth didn't stop at injecting mice, she went on to better things such as losing them in places like the biology lab. and finding them in unusual places such as .... well, unusual places. The friendly type, Beth is always willing to do something for someone else. such as helping to eat candy. If you live with the lame you will learn to limp tt: verse' ugiliefz, -kr-sr , . mask Q.

Betsy's hair-do is unique to say the least. She won't tell how it got that way, but it was either because of a lawn mower or a pencil sharpener. She says it's very helpful-it keeps her cool in thc summer and helps her to think fmore oxygen into the hrainj. Unfortunately it didn't help her get her driver's license, but then, they do say that the best drivers are morons and Betsy is sharp, sharp. l sharp. A cat can look at a King? R U TH EHRMA l936 Ehrman's fast ball whizzes over the plate at a greater speed than Herb Score's ever did. Besides being a star pitcher. she is also one of I,aurel's best hitters.

This, of course. seared half the population of Butler into believing they were living in the Age of Dinosaurs, which delighted Ehrman to no end. Vnfortunately, Woody died and was cremated in Ehrman's incinerator. Ehrman also loves horses and has one of her own, Not being allowed to keep him in the dorm, she rooms with Beth DePuy instead.

I'd stay after school but I must go home and see if I received a letter. Tell you what: l'll stay Friday for a while. Is this Fri- day the eighteenth? XVell, then, I'm sorry but I'm going down to Akron. Say, why don't you come over for lunch Saturday? Oh, no!

As the door to the choir room closed after Carol I began to get worried as to when I could possibly talk to her. But then. reviewing our short conversa- tion. I realized that she had told me quite a lot al- ready. I began planning her write-up. Carol Fields, chairman of the Assembly Commit- tee, is one of the quiet girls in our class. Through thick and thin she manages to retain her com- posure, This is hard when there are three hundred girls waiting for assembly to begin and the pro- jector is being used for something else. It is also hard to keep calm on those terrible mornings when there is only one other soprano in choir besides Carol and the response has a very difficult high soprano part. All these are situations which give one the temptation to panic, but Carol ncyer does, No matter what the problem, Carol is friendly. smiling and calm.

MIRIAM NORTON GALE Mimi can be seen most anywhere, in the chapel singing, in the gym ofiice, tactfully persuading Miss Stevens on A. A. matters or generally being helpful. Mimi is one of the lucky few who has walked Laurel's halls since the age of five. She was also one of the elite sophomore candle lighters for the carol service. She is the first one to arrive at school and the hrsttone to leave, funless there is basketball or hockey practicej, for she is in a hurry to get home to her gracious Mentor manor and her horse. N0 matter how much of a hurry she's in, she always has time for a cheery word to goblins and long-legged human beasties who are having prob- lems, She even arranged a party wit-h mounds of food for the Buffalo Seminary and Laurel hockey teams. There is nothing Mimi loves better than taking off for the weekend, especially to Dartmouth, where her poise and kindness have won her many friends, or friend should we say? O, she will sing the savageness out of a bear. -.NN PRISCILLA jANE GILLIAM 1945 P . ' g up at the world, but that doesn't mean she hasn't moved around in it.

As a matter of fact, she reached the point where she was afraid to take any more pictures. YVe had confidence in her though, and she, too, is responsible for a good deal of what you are now looking at. Pris has, we, who have also suffered for this book believe-, earned the height suitable for one who has weathered Laurel for hfteen years now. That makes her a veritable pillar of the school, and she's proud of it. Never let it be said that Pris's rendition of the Alma Mater lacks sincerity. She may be little, but shc's loud!

Guitar in sing of source hand, she strolls casually along dispo themes, Order Committee duties and Laurel-iw Review commitments with an envied effortlessness. She racks up Honor Roll citations and horseman- ship awards with equal nonchalance. Creativity? A few strokes of a paint brush and a Crie-Picasso-Lautrec is ready for display, A few lines with a pencil and the English department is ready to add a Griesingcr chapter to the poetry books. A few notes on the piano and Van Cliburn is out of a job! Sally's motto seems to be. Variety is the spice of life, and she practices what she preaches, be it painting birds of paradise on an ancient blue convertible, making fantastic plans for building a beat coifeehouse in her basement, seeking Nirvana with her date on a tennis court at 2:00 A.M., or having the most fascinating shipboard romance with a Dutch hov who fof rour.vr'l couldn't speak a word of English!

GUNN 1948 Every class has one. Ours is simply a bit more expressive. She makes many sounds and beats on Bongo drums or raw meat to extricate her latent passions. Sometimes when she's feeling, most articulate, she marches around study hall or her room ii la Harry Belafonte. Then, we beat the meat for her, and Kit Voelcker sings. With the exception of her marching, her physical exertion is no greater than a walk up and down the,hall or a sun bath on second base at softball practice. Actually, she enjoys skiing too, when she can spend most of her time in the lodge or on top of a hill breaking the rope tow. At night, she likes to walk up to Saint Paul's, but only when its raining. Kate's menagerie of passions consists of Abraham Lincoln, Perry Como, joey Bishop, all beatniks, pizza, bicycle racers, tears, Harry Belafonte, and Bach. Her favorite activities are sedentary ones- such as challenging Corcoran to a snorting contest. listening to Swan Lake, or l'Enfance du Christ, watching jack Parr, or, most favorite of all, just doing nothing. Each night, before she goes to bed, she reads something from Lincoln's book of prayers which gives us hope that she may pull through yet. How- ever, she is a devout member of the Hate Club which requires her to repeat hate seventy-seven times before she says her Lincoln prayer. Paradoxical as it may seem, Kate is a good girl. It's not only fun to be a cohort of Katie's-it's an enriching experience. Or would you call it simply an experience? Please do not shoot the pianist. He is doing his best. TH HALLOWELL ELIZA BE school Nearly every morning-sun, snow, or rain f accepts no cxcnsesy-Bay circles Hudson for the TCSL of the senior contingent. If Bay remains inarticulate for the first few minutes, you know she either had to get gas, or she spent three hours on incomprehensible French idioms. But by the time you reach Route 91, you know. I just don't know, she'll say most -exasperatedly. Everybody keeps dropping hooks and slamming desks. And then she'll say, School seems so pointless sometimes when there's no alternative other than working till midnight and falling asleep in chapel. But then there's always Switzerland next year! Here we have the first burst of enthusiasm of the morning. All right you Chevrolet cheater! I had the right of way-did you hear me, buddy, she snarls and roars across the intersection indignantly. It isn't that we Wlllll to get to school, it's just that I hate hully drivers! The car approaches Laurel at live miles an hour and after hunting a parking place, stops half way down Laureldale. Lethargically, riders gather, drop and regather hooks and begin their fifty-mile hike. If you don't have basketball practice tonight after school, you can walk to Hudson. And that's that! Bay has spoken. It is, it is a glorious thing to b pirate king. 80 Rs VIRGI IA BLA CHE HAMILTO 1953 Wheth f I p o the Mad- woman of Mount Parnasse, Nelly, or just Ginny, she has a place of her own.

She can portray any- thing, even the reincarnation of herself as a straw- berry blonde Pekingese, which she speaks to with low growls. The Peninsula Players, Sunzmer and Snmke, and the guardian of the lights are all in Ginny's blood. In Senior Room, she amuses all with her soliloquies. On the hockey field and on the tumbling mats, she astounds everyone. Her versatility will allow her to do most anything. Her little two-toned Rash Gambler can always be seen on the Laurel Circle in spite of the sulmo- nitions and pleas of the harried ofhce.

She is enthusiastically happy for the good fortune of her friends and is one of the first to offer congratu- lations on a new date, pin, ring or honor bestowed on them.

As a matter of fact, the Turquoise Larimer isn't exactly connected. It is pretty unique. Until further proof is available we will just have to accept the hypothesis that the Turquoise Larimer sprang, full blown and equipped with an ENID bag. from the very biceps of Bacchus. Or, as the case may be, Good Ole Granville. Or Aphrodite. The Turquoise Larimer is being carefully studied by scientists from all over the world at Denison University. lt has been compared to Auntie Mame, Einstein. Machiavelli, Confucious, Lucrecia Borgia and Pavlova. But, as we have stated before, the Larinrer is- thank heaven -uniquef and, for all practical purposes. incomparable. It will reply when spoken to. in a flutter of rolling r's and thc gutteral n's of French, Chinese, and Rhode Island-gahstly. It will dance, it will sing, it will otherwise perform, expressing its own utter tnrquoisity. And, since we want nothing more than to keep our own little Larimer happy, we let it do just as it wishes all over the lawn.

Those wh meek little Melinda well are surprised by her occasional outbursts of wry wit. You can count on Melinda to find humor in the grimest of situations, and her tongue-iw cheek comments on matters of universal interest are the delight of her fellow dormies.

But this happiness is not the complacency of ignorance. Dorothy works hard. During her junior year she used to go to hed at nine o'clock. Now it is nearer one. She worries too-in case you were doubting her humanity. She is very human. But she is happy. In French class this joie-de-vivre manifests itself in a series of uninhibited gyrations that appear when ever Miss Gerfen puts her hands on her hips and snarls: Mademoiselle Mackenzie! The whole class immediately turns to watch Dorothy, who slumps into her chair with the expression of a damned soul sinking into the fiery pits. XVhere are those essays, Mademoiselle Mackenzie! demands La Grande Maitresse, Dorothy's face curls like a piece of fried bacon. Her eyes disappear into the hack of her head. The class rolls on the floor, senseless with laughter. I-I-I-I-I-I- uhhh. Dorothy, at the moment, cannot speak.

Next fall, she plans to accompany her sacred animals to the Southland, where they will continue their educations.

J CLAIRE LOUISE MILLER 1957 When Claire got her driver's license, she thought her troubles were over. However, in the last year she has managed to burn out a clutch, run out of gas and get two flat tires-a tribute to her old red and black Plymouth, which has never been known to start on the first try. She is good naturedly ob- liging about chauffeuring those who don't mind taking their lives in their hands. Since she is so apt to take off for Hudson or other sundry places at the drop of a hat, it's no wonder her parents are reluctant to give her the car. When Claire isn't laughing or talking on the phone, she may be found dashing off flashcards of vocabulary. There is also a slight chance that she might be practicing. After taking piano lessons for eight years, she has become quite an expert at playing Sentimental journey . Around ten-thirty every Saturday morning, Claire rolls out of her driveway in the Plymouth and heads toward the Art Museum for her nine o'clock art class. Claire's talents are not limited to the field of art and music, for she has become quite thc expert knitter under the fine instruction of Mrs. jordan, one of Claire's acclaimed neighbors. Wanted: one tall, skinny male who can wear the sweater Claire knit last summer ..... seems she misread the directions! This doesn't bother Claire, though. Her rare ability to laugh at herself has won her many good friends. Knits up the mveled sleeve of IYITG. SUSAN FORD MOA TZ 1957 An enigma to some, a close friend and confidante to those who know her well, Sue is always the last to arrive at the festivities but never the first to quit the revelry. She is admittedly ape about johnny Mathis, Paul Newman, and Squirt, The Moatz homestead is easily identified by no less than six cars adorning its driveway on Scar- borough Road. Sue can't understand why the neigh- bors complain of the noise. Besides the neighbors, some'of her problems this year have been: learning to spot a '51 Ford. the feasability of frequent treks to Hudson, whatito do with her hair, an overly smart five year old brother, and the fear of falling asleep at the wheel as she travels Fairmount Blvd. toward school five days a week. A phone conversa- tion of less than one half hour is hardly worth the trouble, to Sue. Unless, of course, she's convincing the person on the other end of the line to get con- tacts. Sue is unique in her opinion that Laurel lunches are great! Despite her fond and frequent mention of the good old days at Roxboro, Sue manages to ronvey the impression that life at Laurel is, after all, not ai trzuuuatit' experienre, I-Iark.' 19mm lflf' ffllllfl Il lfU1f'fIlf .vo1n1d. .J wtgiik 11S?m7W6 ,as A BARBARA ANN M UHLHA USER 1956 Barbie missed her call. She should have been a flapper girl. She dresses almost scientifically and is always the first to wear a fashion. She's rumored to be the possessor of one of Cleveland's most ex- tensive collections of cosmetics, beauty aids, etc. At any rate, 'that rainbow of hair colors freshman year was interesting! She looks most natural with a cigarette holder balanced between two fingers, telling someone, Well, honey, he's really not that bad. Very often she'll put aside the cigarette holder and take up her professionally clicking knitting needles. Her results are very strange and fascinat- ing: such as the pair of socks she knit sophomore year-one said Barb on the heel, the other can be inferred. When she tires of knitting, she plays bridge equally professionally. No one wants to play with her unless she can be Barb's partner. She? Well, bridge is for girls, but Barb's company is far from limited. Since she hit Shaker Heights last summer there's been a steady stream of callers on Townley Road. She's fairly charming as a hostess too, we gather. In conclusion, Barb is an expert party girl-bright, vivacious, talkative. Gentlemen prefer Blondes. MARGARET JVICCULLOCH NULL 1956 If you want a fourth for bridge, directions on how to get somewhere, a lollypop, advice, an ac- complice, a cigarette, or just someone nice to talk to, go see Margie. the quiet little blond who put Salem on the map. You'll hnd her at the Laurel Dorm, her home for the past four years. To some of those girls who know her only at school, Margie is quiet, demure, and a little shy. ow her well, especially the dorm girls, will tell you sl1e's unaffected, unassum' ing and a live wire with a terrific sense of humor. who will go along with just about any stunt and who is often the instigator of hilarious antics.

But, we absolutely can't burn down the Athaeneum just to get that one letter. It simply wouldn't be practical. Among the reasons it wouldn't be wise is the fact that the conflagration would limit the source of judy's social life. She's famed for her rendition of the Charleston at Reserve dances: she's the only one who doesn't end up on the floor. As a matter of fact, lIudy's famed for her mere pres- ence at Reserve dances. There's always some plot brewing when judy's around. But, if a Reserve dance and an English report conflict, the English report wins. Judy always has her papers in a week ahead of time, much to the disgust of her procrastinating classmates. She's the most exasperating person in biology also, because she always gets A's on tests that everybody else flunks. Due to the hours she spends assiduously doing her homework, with the intermittent time spent on the phone with Gunn, her sleeping hours are at a minimum, but this has no ill effects. On the contrary, shc not only manages to get good grades, she's the only one in the class who can actually smile, wide-eyed, on M onday morning. n notlzing yet. SUSAN ANNETTE PA S TORELLE 1951 Susie P. fas she is called to distinguish her from the other Susies in the schoolj can usually be found basking in the sun by her pool or playing a vigor- ous game of tennis with some such famous person as Bill Gordon. She is the envy of all Man-Tan addicts because of her year-round tan which she acquires not only at the side of her own pool but also on Christmas trips to Las Vegas and Puerto Rico. Her proudest possession is her 1959 white Chevy convertible. This has taken her to new and inter- esting places-mainly juvenile Court. After whiling away many pleasant hours there, she returns home, where upon feeling the need of some relaxation, she descends into her drugstore basement. Here, with the juke box blasting the familiar voice of Elvis Presley singing Hound Dog , and surrounded by various bottles. boxes, and bins of medicine fall of which she hopes to understand some dayj Susie makes herself a banana split which will never show on her very slim figure. Susie is known for her hospitality and her willingness to share her pool and tennis court with unexpected guests who drop in and just happen to have their bathing suits and tennis rackets with them. Being stage manager puts one in a rather premrious position. 7 ELEANOR LOUISE PA TTERSO l958 At the beginning of Junior Year, to those who hadn't known Eleanor in her pre-move-to-Valr couver days at Roxboro junior High. she appeared never to say more than three words at a time, and always she spoke them in a hush. Shy and bashfnl. eh? Simply because she wasn't particularly articu- late on the subject of existentialism. this didn't mean she couldn't provoke a heated debate on the subject of Heights High. Free week-ends and Heights High somehow go together. but she has many other extra-curricular activities, They range from slamming baseballs across the Campus, to lying on her bed nibbling succulent goodies. surrounded hy an atmosphere of iazz and hungry dorm girls. Of course, this mathe- matical genius also pursues her forte-science, She's equally at home in the biology or chemistry lah and at the medical school at Vanderbilt University where she spends her vacations plodding around the test tubes in a white lab coat. The veritable IBM machine is also noted for her sense of genuineness. I'm stuck with myself. I might as well get used to me. she says. We are used to her toog it didn't take long, and all Eleanor needed to use to make her place at Laurel was her usual equipment-a slide rule and a smile. All matter depends on motion. KAREN GENE VIE VE PERKINS l939 Perky finally decided to come back to Cleveland and Laurel after an absence of four years. During her absence from Laurel. this girl really made the rounds. from Detroit to Dobbs. In fact. she's still making the rounds, One may notice a well-worn path between Crosse Pointe and Cleveland which leads right to Karen's front door. There are many other paths leading to this door also-a number towards Heights. This number is amazing cou- sidering her absence, but. the truth of the matter is, no one ever knew she'd been away after she'd been back a week. There is in Karen's personality not only a pleasingly ribald sense of humor, but also a most casual attitude which places her right in the grooye. Karen's outstanding sports ability is a great asset. She plays a mean game of hockey. She claims it's especially hard on her stick and trick knee-but her opponents claim it's hardest on them. Karen has a great fondness for Pontiacs which are the only cars to buy. She will sell you one on the spot-or if you Want a good deal she'll send you to XVest Side Pontiac.

She always has a good word to say to anyone, anywhere, anytime. She works hard, but never seems to be too busy to help someone else, with a smile, too! Genie is the possessor and cultivator of the long- est hair in the class, and it's naturally curly, too! She wears it in a variety of ways, and it always looks neat whether piled on top of her head or netted hanging do Y un ber neck. ln her spare time, Genie is an energetic soul, who makes many of her own clothes. She ably headed the costume committee for the Senior Play, and nearly went wild last fall trying to get measure- ments. She was often seen, with her tape measure around her neck, eagerly closing in on some poor frightened senior trying to hide the secret of her measurements.

MARGARET ROSE RAMSET 1954 Margaret is besieged by junior Academics in quest of the secret of success . Regard the lady of love and letters as she holds court: All-round? Con- formity! This could be stated in an equally expresa sive yet satisfactory manner: I am active. Yes, I was the editor of Laurel in Review, and I suppose you think that I should say it was a re- warding experience. Those layouts were a bother: well, now that I remember, it was all right after we got it to press. I don't know, I guess I liked it. Just give me the beat and set me free to sway and swirl and bend. First I am one of the cannons at Bunker Hill, and then I become a marshmallow melting in the fire. You should try out for Dance Club. I express myself in this manner! Dancing that is. Creation is the key-note to enrichment. Enrich- ment is the key-note to having a good time, so I say create. I am the female answer to Monet. I create in color. The same in writing. Last year I was on a Colette-Salinger binge. I combine them into my own style, however, like stirring cream into coffee. Oh, the future! I can't be bothered with petty details. It will come, and I'm sure I'll like it. I suppose I'll have to go to college or I'd be wasting my potential, but I'd much rather take off for France this very minute. Of course I intend to get married one of these days. People do those things in order to create with security. One thing more: cultivate idiosyncrasies in your closets. They're handy to play with when you get bored. And Margaret bent down to draw a camellia on her saddle-shoe indicating the termination of the interview.

Sallv possesses a candid sort of determination and drive which commands respect because she always attains her goal, Her supreme desire is to become the first woman president of thc Vnited States. Shc has the qualifications: calculating organization and an ability to see clearly the whole of a situation, amazing versatility enhanced by her motivations. a keen scientific mind useful in this Atomic Age, and a genuine love of thc All-American symbols, West Side Story, bulky sweaters, tennis and skiing. We've the evidence that she could easily attain her final goal. At Laurel, Sally has risen to paramount heights in every possible field. She has managed to sing in choir, sit on Student Council, play basketball and hockey, l0llf jcte in Dance Club. and add and subtract for Laurel in Review without a conflict in schedule. This is a feat! She's always running but she somehow manages to emerge on top grade- wise also. She got the phenomenal grade of thc decade on her biology exam junior year and she's continued along these scientific lines with her ad- vanced algebra course this year. She's usually quite perceptive in English. When she's not sure she's absolutely correct in her opinion, she'll come up with a witty quip that provokes immediate laugh- ter from the class and Miss Hotchkiss. This sense of humor in a precarious situation is a final asset Sally has which will carry her through in her inimitable, gay fashion wherever she goes. Remember that time is money.

Practice makes perfect is an old adage, which must hold a great deal of meaning for Sue. XVho else practices the piano for two hours a day and isn't even taking it for credit? However. anyone who has listened to her play will agree her time has been well spent. Music is certainly one of her fortes: she is one of the members of Clee Club and she also holds one of the coveted seats on the choir bench, quite a feat for a girl who just entered Laurel this year, And music isn't her sole interest either. She gives the same concentration and ut- tention to everything she does, from doing her homework to learning how to play tennis. Sue has an uncanny way of meeting men wherever she goes. She spent part of last year in Europe and met many nice people. This is to be expected. But to have them waiting to see her on her return, this is something else again. Although Sue just came to Laurel, she has fit into school and dorm life like an old-timer, a credit to her friendliness and thoughtfulness.

Whenever Margot has a job to do, she always does it well. Come on, you kids. Break it up. You know you're not allowed to have water fights at eleven o'clock, and I know you're hungry, but please don't eat your tax stamps are familiar phrases with Margot. This -representative from Elyria, the big city of which Cleveland is a suburb, believes in taking things to heart, such as the phrase in the White Team song swing on the ropes and vault the bar. In gym meets she is famed for vaulting over the bar. Even at heights over six feet she makes it look easy. Apparatus is not her only forte. She also graces the tumbling team and is an admired diver who wishes, along with the rest of us, that Laurel had a swimming pool. Margot's friendly personality and great sense of humor have won her many friends at Laurel. She is always bright and merry, except before breakfast. During this time, it is any thing but harmless to speak to her. However, after breakfast Margot be- comes her good natured self and remains so throughout the day. This is Liberty hall. You may do just as you please here. 7 ii. . X fx xv DIANNE TODD 1954 Pretty, punctual and perfectly groomed.

She is well chosen for the job, however, for she is patient, ellicient, understanding, and somehow bears u w ll . p e under strain. Luckily she also adores animals. Fortunately for us, though, Susie isn't too busy and too elhcient as class president to be available to any distressed soul who is in need of a listener or some consolation. After lunch you can usually End her engrossed in conversation with Mrs. Lawyer concerning the behavior problems of the class of '60, or chasing Ehrman down the halls with a dixie-cup of ice cold water. Don't bother looking for her after school because Susie cuts a direct path from her desk in study hall to her own front door in three minutes flat in pursuit of important mail.

In fact, sometimes when she plans to stay a weekend at lilieotville she doesn't return until Tuesday or Wednesday-sometimes with a black eye. She forgets Monday every week whether she's been skiing or not. Yes, Katie is at little vague. However, she did a marvelous job of leading the seniors into the dining room at the Christmas I,uneheon and we are all very grateful to her for remembering to come.

Besides enlivening the atmosphere in Alliance. this vivacious, starry-eyed brunette adds her share of bubbling enthusiasm to Laurel. This is especially noticeable in speech class, where she gleefully and sadistically retells her experiences during her years at Alliance High. Her energy and vigor also reach the Dorm, where she is found either sprawled out on her bed with one of her teddy bears, or in a room full of giggling girls telling jokes and listening to the latest top records. Always the hrst one down to the lunch table. Linda makes certain that her weight stays the same. Only on Thursdays is she known to splurge. and then it is customary to hear her say. Is there anyone who doesn't want her dessert? She is a great girl to have as a friend and to engage in conversation. Her varied subjects for discussion are especially prohtable, as she is most frank and outspoken, a quality much to be admired. I zurmf what I 'll'lIlIf zvlmn I wrmt ii.
