The serious attitude of the students was reflected in concentrated co-operative war work and cheerful sacrifice of social activities. Our service men’s bulletin, “The Brush-Off,” broadcast information on our school activities and provided a tie which neither distance nor time will sever. Just for cementing that bond the Association may feel that its efforts were successful. • • MARY KELLY eaAJsjQjoJz “It can’t be done!” they said. The budget so low — the time so short — the task so great — yet these were not sufficient obsta- cles to dull our enthusiasm. Thus we tackled the impossible. It meant hard work for our chosen few, but if this book brings memories of our spirited class, we can rest now — our work complete.

ELEANOR MORSE— CD. Elly, petite and blue eyed with a shock of curly hair and a smile to match, a never-ending source of pins and sandwiches, a shy, quiet air, broken occasionally by an astounding observation or a “Miss Flint!” that matches the best of ours; designs that personify her — a ne at little dress with brilliant lively touches. LENA SUHER— C.D. “I’ve just got to have it done by Friday” and darned if she doesn’t! She can sit and sew with the quietest of us and then park her needle and jitterbug with the liveliest. A letter a day between the model’s poses. A happy dis- position will ever carry her through. PHYLLIS TOCK— G.A. The hauntingly beautiful Phyl. To look at her is to think, “To her may be attributed the wisdom of the Sphinx.” To know her is to find her intelligent and well read. Rare in that she keeps a truly open mind — she leaves room always for others’ opinions. She’s doing her bit through her U.S.O. work. New adjustments, new contacts — we became ab- sorbed in camouflage, airbrush, mechanical drawing, and costume research — in write-ups, having pictures taken for the yearbook. It has been a strange year, full of adjustments. We realize that our duty lies in doing a good job where we are most needed now. Eagerly, we look to the future. PHYLLIS TOCK

UuH Ui GIgaa ROBERT FLANAGAN MORTON SACKS VIRGINIA CARTER BERTHA GARYONIS PRESIDENT VICE-PRESIDENT SECRETARY TREASURER Because some of the officers hove entered the armed service, new officers were elected to replace them. MORTON SACKS VIRGINIA CARTER BERTHA GARYONIS PRESIDENT SECRETARY TREASURER Juniors at Mass. Art . . . Thus we may read it ten years hence, suggesting a strange, fast-moving year. We shared with other classes the strewing of the gang over the world. Divided, far-flung — still awake, alert, aware, learning! Restless tides of feeling followed the unpredictable world events. In school, ever-persistent battles to be fought and won by wielders of a craft that knows no bounds! We work today in a world 6f despair, for life tomorrow in a world of hope. PHYLLIS RIEHL
