SENIOKS Mary Lou Grothe Chicago, 111. An avid devotee of sophisticated clothes, Mary Lou herself is quite sophisticated. Coming from Wright Junior College, she has been an addition to Prof. Neal ' s art classes, has worked on the student Lounge Committee, on Town and Gown committees, and ' is publicity chairman of the Home Ec Club. Tall, good-looking fellows who can rhumba are her pet hobby. She is also Delta Delta Delta ' s War Projects Chairman. Decatur, 111. Few people know Joy for the witty person he really is. He works part-time at Haines and Essicks in the camera depart- ment and what he doesn ' t know about cameras, film, etc., isn ' t worth knowing. The Sociology department couldn ' t get along without him. He knows all the answers. Eileen Holm Gibson City, 111. Eileen made a beautiful bride in the senior skit this year. Blonde hair, a quiet unassuming personality and a shy smile make her a really likeable person. The possessor of good grades, Eileen graduated in mid-year and is doing an excel- lent iob of teaching— lucky pupils who have her for their teacherl June Kincaid Decatur, 111. June is an unusual person. Her wide range of interests, Home Ec, Art, Chapel Committee, and many others, make her mteresting to those who know her. She has a ready sense of humor, is loyal, ardent, and intense interest in sporting activi- ties with a will to win. Her ever-present smile and her cheer- ful way will be missed in these old halls next year. 25

SENIORS Shirley Friedinger Decatur, 111. Between getting to classes, and working on the Herald and Review, Shirley has had a busy four years. We haven ' t seen much of her around campus, but when she is there she always has that friendly smile and a cheery hello for every- one. Shirley is an English major and with her experience m Jour- nalism she will undoubtedly make a name for herself. Marjorie Funk Bement, 111. Marge probably has more friends than anyone on campus. She has lots of pep and is always ready for a good time. W.A.A. ' s most prized possession. Marge has made a good President for the organization. She is a Home Ec major and is a whiz with a sewing machine. The Waves are getting a grand girl when Marge leaves m June. She will probably be an Admiral before she gets out. Mrs. Pearl Grant Decatur, 111. Mrs. Grant goes quietly about her work with a friendly smile for everyone. Her interesting talks on Horoscopes and the easy manner with which she gives them have been the envy of many of us m Dr. McNabb ' s speech classes. She is a very intellectual person who can talk on a number of subjects with equal ease. Helen Green Decatur, III. Helen is Miss Blackburn ' s pride and joy. She has been very active in the Language Department and helps make Cha- pel interesting. Always perfectly groomed, Helen has made us wonder how she gets everything done and still makes those good grades. She is a quiet, friendly person who will be missed next year. 24

SENIORS WilUam Krigbaum Decatur, 111. Bill is another one o| those super-brilliant Chern majors. He ' s a Kappa pledge, but his collegiate life has not been limited to studies. He is an active person who has had several import- ant places in extra-curricular activities. His pet peeve, as his Mrild bridge technique might suggest, is people who underbid. He ' s a favorite with the freshmen who take chemistry and he ' s a favorite with us. This Krigbaum will really go placesl Helen Kuhns Decatur, 111. If you want the key to Kuhnsie ' s heart, just give the pass- word, Qun . Vice-President of Student Council, Marshal of Tri Delta, Treasurer of the Senior Class, Who ' s Who, W.A.A., Home Ec Club and Intramurals indicate her more serious side. Kuhnsie will long be remembered for her interpretation of Frankie and Johnnie in the Senior Skit. We predict a very successful future for her. Virginia Lambert Decatur, 111. Virginia is another of those Biology brain-trusts. Her ex- cellent grades and many activities earned her the honor of being President of Pi Mu Theta this year. She plans to be a lab technician and she ' ll make a good one. She is assistant in the Biology department and has really worked. The lucky man who put the ring on her finger is Martin whom some of you will remember from last year. WUliam Lighthall Decatur, ni. Bill is the only Teke left in school but he ' s carrying on for the dear old fraternity. He is a rather quiet person but one who gets things done. His favorite spot at school is the large easy chair in the lounge where he can be found most any time. 26
