CHARLOTTE SCHMIDT Charlotte, hailing from Prairie du Chien, can most often be seen swaying down the dorm corridor with a coke in her hand and a package of gum in her mouth. Many a time one can hear her praising the virtues of the coke machine and how its addition to the second floor corridor is a blessing to the school. Charlotte has a liking for cute fashion- able pumps, and her shoe rack is a source of great pride and joy to her. Charlotte, an outstanding student, has always appeared on the honor roll and says French is her favorite subject. She has often expressed her desire to be- come a doctor. Her great wit has amused us all. ' IANE SELL lane, with the flashing smile and merry laugh, certainly made a lasting impres- sion when she came to the Seminary from Wauwatosa as a sophomore. Since then she has kept her presence known by her knack of getting into trouble. An enthusiastic member of the Semaphore staff, she was elected ex- change editor her junior year. lane can always be counted on as a fourth at bridge. Her favorite expres- sion is terrific ljust ask her whyl, and her pet aversion is driving alone. Iane has made many friends at Downer.

PAULA SANDEN To mention all of Paula's good points would leave us breathlessp besides it Paula were near, she wouldn't let us get a word in edgewise. She is the talkative type and since she has so much to say, she has to say it fast. Her interests lie in the field of sports. Swim- ming. and horseback riding are her first loves. Paula likes to express herself in art. She has a talent for drawing and painting, which she hopes to put to use some day. One of these maddening girls who can eat as much of anything they iwish, and not show it, she says her favorite food is Red Devil cake. A native of Park Ridge, Illinois, Paula spends many sum- mers in New York. There her greatest thrill occurred when she caught a tuna while deep sea fishing. MARGARET REICHOW This girl with the sparking brown eyes, engaging smile, and contagious laugh, is one of the best-liked girls in the dorm. Margee came from Oshkosh in her junior year. According to her, any- one who hasn't heard of that surging metropolis has missed a part of living. When it comes to sports, tennis seems to be her Waterloo for she is often heard exclaiming in a puzzled manner, The strings are too loose or There must be a hole in the racket . This doesn't seem to discourage her, as for the past year she has earnestly claimed that she will yet learn how to play the game. Margee's cheery smile will long be remembered by her classmates. tie.

.IOAN MARGARET STRYKER A cry of Hey, Ioie! echoes through the dorm and a smiling face appears in the hall. If anyone gave a medal for friendliness, Ioie would certainly get everyone's vote. Ioie has attended the Sem since her sophomore year when she came to us from Fremont, Michi- gan. She was a mainstay in the alto section of Glee Club, and was one of this school's best hockey, basketball, and volleyball players. Ioie can play the trumpet-practically equals Harry Iames, in fact. She has a wonderful faculty for getting along with people. lt is certain that trait will be valuable in the future years when she realizes her life-long ambition to become a nurse. KATHARINE STEVENS Katie came to Downer in the middle of her junior year and startledl us all by making the high honor roll with her first grades. However, Katie is blessed with more than brains. Among other things, she possesses the all-too-rare ability to be tactful at all times and would do anything rather than hurt someone, She has a Wonderful sense of humor but is often serious too. To assure people that she is in a serious mood she loudly proclaims, That's no bunk, adding as an after thought, I think. No matter what she thinks we're bet- ting on Katie to make good Wherever she goes. room. Our past four years have been
