GRACE CHESBROUGH RATHBUN 1937-1941 VVho is this Yictorian maiden with a tiny pink bow in her frizzed bangs, who writes about fuzzy rabbits and furry kittens? Blue Mondays are often enlivened by her cute little tales of how Putty spilled her milk all over lnky's silky black fur or how those two pets kept her tootsies warm last night. It was Grace who made those cunning little animal drawings in last year's Weaflzrr Vmzc, of which she was incidentally editor-in-chief. Hut on the tennis court, where she won the girls' city championship for two years, we see another side of her talent. How we envy those long full swings and backhand drives! As the captain of the Orange Team, she excels also in hockey and basketball, and swings a mean baseball bat. With charm and poise she led the chorus at last year's commencement. Her talents even extend to the stage- witness Rosey in Brief Music. Dwacie is noted for her friendly little giggle and the latest clippings from her home-made hair cut. 20

ANN CAROLINE KUMLER 1937-1941 . . . and say, Cobina. . . This from Ann, that humorous disintegrater of the Senior Class, who sends us into gales of laughter. at the most inopportune times-in study halls or Spanish classes. As Mr. lllake puts it: As Ann goes, so goes Spanish. Fluffy brown hair and an upturned nose are the only things distinguishable above shin guards, big hockey shoes, and whatever happens to be unclaimed in the Lost and Found, as Ann so deftly guards the Brown Team goal. .'Xll1l1.S crush on double-bubble and Orson NVelles have both been discouraged during her four yea1's at school, the former by Miss Parsons and the latter by hearing her hero in person at Detroit. Speaking of Detroit, what about those impromptu week-ends with your cousins C ?j, Ann? ller mirthful characterization of Maria of Tzuvlfflz Niglzf brought her fame as an actress way back in her sophomore year, and her latest role of Jinx has made us prophesy for her a stage career. Some day the lllue Network will announce a new Fanny llrice. 19

A lover of work without etfort, jo is searching for a college catalogue lacking intriguing passages on courses of study. N'l'c all wish we could produce such masterpieces of writing as jo tosses off with the greatest of ease. This talent for expression is found not only on paper but in her clever speech. lf we feel sour, perhaps from a sixty-two in French or from too many chocolate cookies, jo is ready to sympathize, to cheer us up with her quick wit, or perhaps to eat our last cookie for us. There is one day when jo's bubbling giggle does not echo merrily down the hall and that is Monday. This Mondayitis is accepted as a matter of course. Some day we may see a plane soaring above and if we focus the spy-glasses accurately, we shall see that ,lo is the pilot, for, believe it or not, she has taken to the air. XVe sincerely hope that she will soar as high with her literary talent-and we don't mean sky-writing. 21
