My new school is just wonderful, and we have so much fun, even if we do have to work. We had two marvelous informal dances, and later in the year, a formal dance w ith an orchestra and everything at the Sulgrave Club. It was a novelty for us to have classes over Gar- finckel ' s, and we had a grand time there, but 1 am getting rather excited about our new campus on Foxhall Road. We laid the corner- stone on t lie day before Commencement. Oh, it is .vo much fun to be Sophomores! We have had oodles of tilings to do this year on the campus: a Halloween party, a Christmas dance at the Wesley Heights Club, an informal Spring dance, and the Senior Prom in May. 1 shall never forget the Sky Top trip, or Mrs. Torovsky ' s records of “The Snow Goose. or Morth field Day, which was in pril. The Father-Daughter softball game certainly won the Oscar for 1 1 7 . 1 have never laughed so hard! The Founder ' s Day service at the old Mount Vernon Chapel on Nebraska venue was the first important event of our Junior year. nd two weeks later. Miss Vpplebee, from England, visited us and coached our hockey team. W e stood in line for hours on a cold day in November, and finally saw the Freedom Train. I don ' t know which documents were the most interesting and impressive. In March, the -ray l nil arrived in search of T-B, but didn’t find a single speck! We had lots of teas and parties, and an Art exhibit and an open- house. and a Horse Show, and a tearfully-sweet Junior-Senior ban- quet. The Evaluation committee came in April. We were a little freightened, but being evaluated was quite interesting. Marion Pelly . Vicky Garbisch, and Helen Adams, were elected Student Body, Class, and Optima presidents, respectively . That, in itself, is assur- ance enough of a stupendously wonderful year to come. How wonderful, how enchanting, to be a Senior, at least! The year began with a spectacular series of parlies. The athletic teams had parties, and there was a new-girl, old-girl picnic, and a Halloween party, and the Founder’s Day party. On November second, we elected Dewey, while the outside world elected Truman. One gray day we had Saturday classes. So many sleepy people! Everyone attended the Book Fair, and many of us were Raggedy Ann salesgirls. The Christmas season brought with it a dance and plays by the Prep players, which were a great treat. Optima had a party for a group of children before vacation began. Classes resumed all loo soon. I couldn’t think at all. Indeed, it felt as if my cotton-stuffed head were ripped. We attended the Presidential Inauguration. There was so much excitement! It was the first. Inauguration most of us had seen. The Sky Top weekend came and went too quickly, and then the Harvard Reading films descended upon us. My, 1 hope 1 can learn to read! We became dancing dolls in March; the informal dance and the modern dance recital were colorful spring festivities. Spring fever possessed us even before the spring holidays began. The year ended with a flourish. The Music Department presented aspring concert; our Spring Prom marked the social climax of this memorable year. Our zenith of happiness came when we donned our w lute gradu- ation dresses, carried our red roses, and received the coveted diplomas. Yes, the Raggedies have to grow up ' oQadt Will and T)ed lament One day while browsing through the magical pages of the magical hook. Raggedy Ann suddenly stopped and read “Every person who has read this book has left something of himself, and before yon leave YOU must do the same! And what she read was tins: I. Helen Adams, will “The Chief to Helen Woodward. I. Toma jean Akers, will my convertible to Somers House — -some day.

I, Gigi Wise, will all those exciting train rides to Audrey Appel. 1, Ann Wright, will my Saturday night dates to Connie Gedney. t J aggedy cAnn in the Atag,ical J and of the future Dazed, and niavbe even a little bit frightened — not very, of course, but just a little bit — Raggedy Ann sal up as straight as she could and looked around her. What peculiar place could this be? she said out loud and was immediately hushed by a familiar-sounding voice issuing from behind a voluminous cloud of pink smoke. “1 am Professor Babbitt. the voice said impressively. “And 1 must have complete silence in order to carry out my research on the properties of bubble gum at absolute zero. Raggedy Ann was a little taken aback at this and began to tiptoe away quietly. To think that her old M.V.S. classmate was carrying on such an important -sounding experiment! She walked along a little farther, her cottony head filled with all sorts of cottony thoughts, w hen all of a sudden she saw on the grass under her feet an enormous black book. On the cover it read “Susan Guilin ' s Revised Latin Dictionary In Which Each Word Has Only One Intended Meaning. s Raggedy Ann made her way around the book- for it was much loo big to step over -she saw a little old lady laden down with lots of heavy-looking suitcases, walking toward her. Do, oh please do let me help you. said Raggedy Ann, her candy heart brimming over with concern. And as she took two of the suit- eases, one in each of her little cot Lon-stuffed hands, the nice lady introduced herself. 1 am Julie Turner. she said. “And I am on my way to Acripolis. I’ve never been there before. “Why, Julie Turner, cried Raggedy Ann, throwing her arms around her, and the two had a wonderful reunion. For when one lias not set ' n one ' s very own classmate for almost fifty years, a reunion is very exciting. They continued walking along and Raggedy Ann gazed with wonder at all the magical things there were to be seen. The clouds were as white as marshmallows in the pretty blue sky, and as she looked up Raggedy Ann saw , to her surprise, a hig gray thing with a windmill on top, bobbing in and out between the marshmallows. That’s Joan Lee, said Julie. She used to give driving lessons, but now that everyone travels by air she’s teaching beginners how to fly their helicopters. ’ No sooner had she spoken when the big gray thing humped into one of the snowy w hite marshmallows and stuck there, while Joan Lee and her pupil, Mary Schoolev, tumbled dow n to the soft yellow grass. They picked themselves up and made their way to where Raggedy Ann and Julie were standing. “We really can’t stay long,” said Joan Lee. “For I must rush over to the Smiling Akers and Wise Used Airplane Lot, and Mary is already late for her doctor’s appointment. ' They hurried down the humpety-bumpety road, waving over their shoulders. Almost before they were out of sight Raggedy Ann heard the sound of voices behind her, and when she turned around she saw Lula Belle Scott marshalling her world-renowned glee club across the grass. “I am on my way to the opening of Engineer Pelly’s great tunnel under the Rocky Mountains, said Lula Belle. “It will really be a thrilling occasion and everyone is going to be there. Why, you will even hear Jenny Weinman sing her famous rendition of “Yankee Doodle Dandy,” accompanied by Debby Hardy at the piano, and see Betty (inkier present her very ow n interpretation of the jitterbug as it was danced way back in the late 1940s!” “That’s a lovely idea,” said Raggedy Ann. “Parties are such fun!” So they all joined hands anti skipped away over the soft yellow grass. Everyone was delighted to see Raggedy Ann. They all crowded around enthusiastically to tell her about every little thing that had happened since they had last been together and, indeed, there were a lot of tilings to tell. Mary T alley who was well-known in the field of writing, had just published her latest work, a history of what really happened during the Civil War, and had dedicated it to her fellow -historian, the famous Bee Baxter. Raggedy Ann’s little cloth ears popped when she heard about Joy’s and Mart lie’s big house down at Vnnapolis. They kept it open to all the girls from Mount ernon, who went down to the “Tea Fights” each year. They said they had the grandest time, and it gave them a chance to glimpse Bobbie and Maggie every fourth Saturday afternoon. icky had a great deal to say, for she had recently visited her six granddaughters w ho w ere maintaining the family tradition at Mount Vernon, and everyone was very eager to hear all about the school. She said that a number of new buildings had been added to the cam- pus, among them a senior dormitory, headed by Andy and Emily, the two new house mothers. The distinguished lawyer, Kay Kerr, was on her w ay from Okla- homa to Connecticut where she would represent her client, Marion ilson, in a law suit against Jane Lank who had stated in a radio address that Annapolis was nicer than West Point. Kay said that she had run into Joan and Jean at one of the O.l . Deko parties and they seemed to be having a wonderful time. Just then Raggedy Ann heard a funny sizzling noise right in back of her. and w hen she turned around there w as a pretty little soda fountain which had sprung up in the middle of the silvery forest. Marie, an expert at making sodas of all different colors and flavors, passed them around to everyone until they could not drink a single drop more. Raggedy Ann asked about Janis and Ann and Helen. “They were busy writing ' Marie said. “In order to send every- thing to the publisher next week! So many exciting things had happened that Raggedy Ann could scarcely keep her cotton thoughts arranged in order. Buttons thrilled everyone w ith her description of Broadway. With the aid of Barty. her able manager, she had certainly made a name for herself. Robin was busy illustrating Jean cal ' s new cartoon strip which had made a lug hit in all the Alabam a papers, while Flo, master of ceremonies on her sensational new quiz program, had recently sent six washing machines, four vacuum cleaners, and enough Venetian blinds to completely furnish three houses to Harriet Hodges and Jackie Lilian! for their accurate estimate on the number of rabbits in the Sniok Mountain National Park. Everyone was excited to hear from Priscilla about the new landing lield she planned to construct at Mount Vernon lor all the girls who llcw their own planes to school., and Raggedy Ann donated two candied lemon peels to the line cause. One of the highlights of the party came when Peg and Susie, Lold about their glamorous new night club. Everyone was looking for- ward to going up to New ork for a glimpse of its striking murals designed by Molly, and to see Tilly, the Beatrice Lillie of 1999, who was star of the spectac ular floor show. Cody and Virginia had found it necessary, because of arthritis, to give up tennis, but they were carrying on their remarkable record in the world of sports by holding the International Women’s Cham- pion Ping-Pong trophy which they proudly displayed to everyone. The happy party finally came to a close as all happy parties must, and Raggedy Ann really felt she should be getting home. She left the magical silvery woods very quietly, for she could not bear to say goodbye and as she rounded the hilltop she could hear the distant sound of music. “The changing years may bring us,” sang the voices. “ ' The changing years ' is right, thought Raggedy Ann, as she raced old Mr. Sun dow n the other side of the hill.

We are not trying to preach from our soap-boxes, but we feel that interest and leadership are things essential to a good school. Our class meetings have been demo- cratic, but usually end in laughter and feelings of good will. The new girls have entered into the spirit of our class and school, and make a real contribu- tion to our unity. 19 The Best is None Too Good For Vs!! ' ” ShII Ptmior. Murgan.

Phis year at Mount ernon lias been different. Tor from our first days here it has seemed as though we really did belong. We felt from the beginning the personal interest of our teachers, and the friendship shown us by the other classes. In March we were honored when Mrs. Lloyd asked us to be hostesses at a tea, where an enchanting diorama of “Alice in Wonderland ' was displayed. Beth dressed a lovely doll as Alice, and it was later rallied off, the proceeds going to the gymnasium fund. We are grateful to our faculty ad- visor, Mrs. Williams, for her friendly help. We sincerely hope that in our future years at Mount Vernon w r e may be of as much service to the incoming Freshmen as our big sisters have been to us. ■{ 50 V M % ■ fV— J Lrf ST l DENT GUI -IL First row: Belly Ghormlry Marion Felly, Vicky Gurbisch, Martha von I leiniburg Second row: Noel Lii 1oIIh.
