Dashing hither and yon — laden with teaching mater- ials . . . always doing for others. COLLEHE MILLIE . .SAL MILDRED BARTLETT— T.T. A quiet girl on the surface, but when you get to know her you find the real Milly . . . what a sense of humor! Her wistful brown eyes seem to belie her practical side. Clever dry brush water colors in a dreamy pastel vein — keen mind — capable of brain-storm deductions”. Have you heard about her transportation problems? SALLY BOYCE— T.T. Sal, the gal with the soft voice and shy smile. Dresses of light pastel tints and chestnut hair parted in the middle give her that smart band box look. . . . Who would think that she came from the wilds of Brook- field? She loves to talk about cows — Elsies or otherwise . . . and those meals at the Y”!

CLARE BROCKUNIER— T.T. An indomitable spirit — burning the candle at both ends. Sensitive to beauty of all kinds, Clare lives her art. We love her apartment which she shares with us at lunch time — for hot soup and words of sym- pathy. Vacillating between a wor- ried frown and a gay laugh — it ' s fun to be with her. If Clare is your friend — you’re lucky. VIRGINIA CARTER— T.T. Blue-green is the color to match her eyes. Carter, our efficiency expert — smart in a suit — smiles at us from behind the school store counter. Poised and sedate ... an occa- sional dramatic spree convinces us she has more than a quiet side. “Gin , of the husky voice and ex- pressive eyebrows, does everything well . . . and on time, too. CLARE . . . GIN . . . ANGIE . . . MARIE LOUISE ANGELINE COLONTONIA— G.D. The first on deck in the morning and one of the last to leave the building at night. A clever drafts- man and designer . . . Angie with her sparkling dark eyes and cheer- ful smile is a friend to all. We hope that in her travels through life she will gather as much happiness as she has shed. MARIE LOUISE HORSIN-DEON I.T. Charming, dainty, vivacious and fascinating to listen to ... is our Parisienne Marie. A wisp of chiffon — interesting earrings . . . subtle appeal of color ... a dreamy qual- ity to the girls she paints. Moody, amusing, Marie retains her poise in the most trying circumstances . . . she is always master of the situa- tion.
