Of course not —it’s just a member of A.A. in action again. And the A.A. is active regardless of the season; snow, wind, or hail, the show goes on. And always a good show, too, under the most capable and enthusiastic supervision of Miss Farmer. Right in the midst of every activity, not just on the sidelines directing the plays but out on the field where practice makes perfection, she has led and accelerated the spirit that is realized in the victory of Manhattanville team. Right beside Miss Farmer, playing referee when “our coach” plays guard, is Joan Kirby on hand with a point for our team and a laugh for the cause. The spirit that is represented in the A.A. members from each class is well guided under the scheduled events and “goings on” which keep the rest of us in voice for the cheering sec¬ tion. The gym buzzes with anticipation of big things. Miss Farmer’s office droons with the chattering voices of the A.A. as the years events move on; and the col¬ lege shouts with vigorous cheers for all their plans. To the Navy we say “thanks” for returning to the Man¬ hattanville Faculty one of its best officers; and to Miss Farmer, we say “thanks” for coming back; to the A.A. we say “thanks” for keeping our limbs in tune with our laurels. TENNIS SQUAD—Joan Watson, Mary Ellen Simon, Kee Wilcox, Joan Regan, Ann Cooley, Joan Markey, Ann Lummis (Manager). Absent —Joan Hoffman (Capt.) Grace Ross, E. F. McCarthy. 28

What did we know about dummies, galleys, proof reading and all the things that somehow or other produce a year book? Our knowledge was scant but we were anxious to learn and in learning we were enlightened. Deadlines brought head¬ aches but once met they were insignificant compared to the fun and excitement of seeing the book gradually enlarge from cover to cover and the mystery of a year book unraveled. The clue to the mystery was the cooperation and help of every one who volunteered assistance and those who gave moral support when it was needed. Now that it is finished we offer it to “47” hoping that it will after recall at least a few of the memories of “when I was in college.” 27
