FORDYCE W. BAKER, JR. He is smooth-looking; he is quick-moving; and when he laughs, the world laughs with him. Behind his dreamy eyes is worldliness; behind his quiet, suave manner is very much of the little boy. Ford — enigma, elusive. He serves three masters: German, English and Miss Cridlebaugh. MARGARET H. BAKER Peggy ' s classic features are oft extolled; her statuesque beauty is loudly proclaimed. True to the Greeks she is reserved and dignified. She is a well-selected Homeric simile dressed in stunning clothes. RUTH BANKER Don ' t let Ruth ' s fluff of blonde hair and danc- ing brown eyes deceive you! Beneath that charming pertness lies an amazing amount of energy that clamors for expression and permits no trifling. ROBERTA C. BAXTER Bertie: a character of a book; the author of which may have been Robert Frost, for in her we find the same quiet love of New England. Yet, in another chap- ter, the writing is more that of Richard Halli- burton, — wildness of sudden inspirations, and the irrepressible joy of living. HELEN M. BECK Clear and flowing her voice . . . her bearing dramatic, her nature sensitive. Warm and impulsive her heart . . . the popu- lar Beckie. LA CAMP ANA 27

ALMA CLARE ALBINl The chameleon one . . . now laughing, gay . . . now serious, determined. Alma, enchantress of the gullible and the firm . . . lovable little sprite, who has frisked her way into all Montclairian hearts. ALEXANDER HADDEN ANDERSON Andy has a mind able to visualize, to organize and to realize. He has learned to place his effort where it will count the most, be it in lessons, or in leisure. One feels that, while his independence of thought may often touch the cynical, his humor and imagination will keep his thinking straight. MARJORIE J. ARKENBERG Venus gave beauty and charm: Minerva added wit and intelligence; Mercury combined glow- ing health and physical prowess; — the Gods had molded a masterpiece — Marge — and gen- tlemen ceased to prefer blondes. THE 1937 JOSEPH AYICK A gallant, mature soul, this Ayick, with a host of analytical percep- tions all the more ap- preciated because they are wedged far beneath the surface. Strange to find dispersed in that quiet poise, a gaiety as fresh as a child ' s, and as contagious. JOAN E. BADER Joan is our idea of the versatile biologist. However, never mind her gay German songs or her sketches in black and white; it is as a faithful friend we best know her, as her other half in Russ will testify. 26

ALICE L. BEEBE A wicked grin — a shout of glee, someone small and eager Scoots past. A live wire — never motion- less, seldom silent. If a friendly call echoes from any corner you may be sure its origin is this cheery, diminu- tive dynamo who is a part of Montclair ' s ev- ery fun. THE 1937 ANDREE MARIE BELVERCE French from the word go! Slim, trim. Made- moiselle Andre ' hides numerous resources be- neath a chic exterior. Her accomplishments, which range from des- ignateur de costumes francais for the annual language festival to ex- ecutive admirable of the French Club, pre- sage her instinctive good taste and quiet efficiency. LAURA BENNETT Gentle. Gay. Dimpled. Laura, who had the distinction of being the only woman in a Senate play, is active dra- matically and attractive redheadedly. NORMAN P. BERDAN There ' s a look of seriousness in his blue eyes that gives the lie to his carefree activity. There ' s a line of determination about his chin that contradicts his irresponsible air. There ' s an element of steadiness in his friendship that perjures his youthful changes-of-heart. A boy of paradox, Norman gives promise of a man of accomplishment. BETTY ROSE BIRD Weaving a delicate pattern of poetry . . . Inviting confidence with clear-eyed simplicity . . . Judging facts and folks directly . . . Betty, a truly aerial being.
