LOIS GUSTAFSON— T.T. Poised, serene, with personality and diplomacy that we envy — gifted with a sense of humor and a knack for getting things done quickly. Stories about her family and social life are forthcoming every day. A member of the Motor Corps, she handles the automobile with efficiency. JANET HALL— T.T. Our craftsman, she taught us with great patience to tie knots and helped us when we felt like giving up. She put up her hair one day, and before us appeared a so- phisticate. Comes in buried under materials when everyone else for- got. Conscientious and sincere. PRISCILLA GOODWIN— G.D. Laughs and the world laughs with her. Friend to all, bubbling with energy, an all-American girl. Equipped with the latest little moron joke, another victim of apartment-life malnutrition. Seek- ing advice on all subjects from love to industry from the little man with the great mind — Donof. MARTHA HASKELL— G.D. With a smile, a twinkle and “Well- 11” Martha tells of fascinating ad- ventures. Work meticulously done, colorful, speaking highly of her apartment life. “We have a new scheme,” she exclaims, and reveals how she can eat beans seven days a week. Our strawberry blonde from Maine is busy as a bee, full of pep and vigor.

HESTER DOLBEAR— C.D. Dirndl skirt, white in winter, green eyes twinkling to m atch her soli- taire, a bunch of celery, well- packed lunch box, and a dash of self-analysis — “Hesse,” our cham- pion of the oppressed and collector of little people. Green stockings, faculty impersonations, and A’s in Art History. UGO D’ONOFRIO— G.D. Our pal Donof” — a skillful de- signer with a genius in the fine arts — with wisdom, sincerity, and judg- ment. Despite his aversion to the abstract, he quickly and deftly expresses the modern. Quiet? Well he was once! Controversial, he doesn ' t believe it takes two to make an argument. ELEANOR FULLER— T.T. From the wilds of East Bridgewater, where to shop one goes down street,” comes Eleanore. Blue eyes, brown hair, satin finish — with a smile and sympathetic ear to tales of woe, and Marie’s subtle jokes which only she can get. Brown bag and trips to the post off ice. LEONARD GOLDBERG— G.A. He of the cherubic face and fetch- ing widow’s peak. The undisputed pet of the class, so nice to tease. Well-informed about art and music, with definite cast-iron opinions about both. The ease with which he achieves success in his work is the despair of his classmates.

ANNA HOGAN— T.T. Always cheerful and ready where assistance is needed. Remember her explanations and stories, com- plete with gestures and a sense of humor? Conscientious and sincere, with an eye to the future. Settle- ment houses and camps are her specialties. Ask her about the girl who drew flowers. RUTH HOLT— G.D. Pep and Go,” abstractions, and ducks classify this winsome miss. The brains behind the mass produc- tion of her Keep Mum poster. Hers is a direct approach to design, with as much directness in complet- ing ideas. Repercussions of Maine weekends, and I come first after cameras and boats.” MARY KELLY— C.D. S.A. president rushes through the halls with a sheaf of papers and “Roberts Parliamentary Order.” Tailored suits, lilting stride, icy hands, an iron-hand-in-the-velvet- glove technique. Possessor of an amazing collection of earrings. Notice the latest? Marine insignia. IRENE MAC MILLAN— C.D. Devilish twinkle in her pretty eyes belying the shirred sophistication of that purple silk gown. Illustra- tions, color as sparkling as her laugh, keeps things perpetually alive. Our own Dache, creates filmy hats, voluminous pocketbooks. We’ll look for our modern Venus on the pages of Vogue.
