• GLORIA CHEN • HERLINDA CHEW • BETTY JANE CHU CHING girl with long hair by day, sophisticated with up-sweep by night, indispensable at the Office of Record, Cos has often put her math major to use in bridge tournaments. Her hobby: collecting inanimate elephants; her senior year delight: making pottery in the ceramics workshop. • GLORIA CHEN. Never let it be said that Gloria shirks her academic duties. But when she inevitably reaches the point where she cannot stand the sight of a book, she becomes a human dynamo, chasing people with a camera, pounding the piano, or going on her frequent shopping sprees. To regenerate energy, she takes afternoon naps. • HERLINDA CHEW. Tampa is one of those people who can read a French book as fast as you can read an English one. Yes, indeed, a linguist at heort plus being an innovator of a brand new system— that of changing her major as second semester Senior. Fur- thermore, a wonderful flare for sewing has she— Rumpelstiltkin has nothing on her. Always ready with that sunny smile, she is neatness, charm, and sincerity perfected. • BETTY JANE CHU CHING. A beauty from Hawaii, Betty added the lost C to her name during exam, week and wore orchids for days afterwards. Sports and art combine into interests, for she ' s a golfer, swimmer, and photographer. Her interior decorating will be put to much practical use, probably to hubby ' s delight. 27

•JANE BRUCE •JOAN BUTNER •CAROL CASTNER O Of =3 o Z o u LU z z X o • JOHANNA BECKER. Imperturbable, efficient Jo remains ever in our minds as the guardian angel, arbitrator, and pacifier of the motley crew on third. Capable of saving a stitch in time, adept at balancing any budget, Jo ' s future spells Domesticity in any man ' s language. • JOAN BOURG. Underneath that long and luscious black hair is a sizeable amount of grey matter which intermittently gives out with profound observations or crisp dry humor. This year Joan took over the president ' s office in the Union, and there has set her animated and driving personal ity to work. We won ' t forget her lighter side either, those evenings of tearing down the Ave., the modern dance fever, the cake and cokes, and talks at midnight. « JANE BRUCE. Jane is unique. As an inhabitant of Texas she believes in the rest of the country, and as a math major she discounts her ability to add and subtract, multiply and divide, and brush her teeth with a slide rule. It ' s easy to list Jane ' s qualities of generosity, sin- cerity, and understanding. • JOAN BUTNER (the botany major who walked into a poison oak patch). Sweet and generous in her manner of handling hall problems as president, Joan ' s seriousness, whether she ' s in slacks or a formal, is betrayed by the twinkle in her eyes. If she ' s not working in the lab or guarding at the pool, she ' s watching the fish in her third floor porch aquarium. CAROL CASTNER. Little 26

• MARIANNE COOKE • ANN COLE • BARBARA DAVIS • MARIANNE COOKE. Cookie was a Junior transfer from Southern California. She is an art major— even to the creation of tricky coiffures. Her first try at photography was a tremendous success, her roommate, Derry, being the photographic model. Not getting to meals on time was Cookie ' s pet habit. • ANNE COLE. Completely unselfish, always thoughtful, never a passive in-between, v ith stubborn perseverance, full of energy, love of people and good times, Ann is never apathetic tov ords anyone or anything. As OIney ' s No. 1 fire chief she was un- equoled in her attempts to coordinate the group exit in one minute. For a helping hand, call Ann. • BARBARA DAVIS. Whether sipping coffee in the tea shop or pondering over all those cultural English books at her desk, you can always spy Barb by that twirling the curl habit of hers. She ' s more than acquainted with Chaucer, Shake- speare, and the rest of the boys, but she always finds time to show her enthusiasm for swimming, tennis, ballet, and peeking into china shop windows. • FRANCES DEARING. Here is the aristocrat of Ethel Moore ' s senior class. Fran is a conservative but her practical mind leads her every day to new ideas. She is a bit of a sophisticate, poised and self-contained. She is sensitive to people and generous with her 28
