llarnl Berry Be than the rainbow to the .rtormf of life Carol, our Fingernail Queen of '52, claims Oklahoma City as her home, but vacation rendezvous are held at Oklahoma University. Lit is famous for her diets, and the distinguished honor of President of the Saccarin Club is one of her many accomplishments at M.V.S. Calong with being Mlle. Berry, master at the art of back massagej. When asked about friends at home, her inevit- able answer is, Oh, they're the biggest kings that ever walked. A representative of the Winkie Blinkie Eye Lash Company, Lit states: Our products are guar- anteed to wink and blink-satisfaction or your money back. Those eyelashes have had quite an effect on the opposite sex since Lit's arrival two years ago, and, no doubt, they will con- tinue to blink at the University of Oklahoma this fall.

My goodness, this place is so strange! Yes, another California sunbeam has been added. Kathie resided in Somers only a short time, but long enough to let us all know that she would never be a hindrance to any of her suite's no- torious parties. Some moods, those in which her ray of happiness shone through, were spent by listening to records, or joining the two -Ianets on their safari into the interior Ckilling fliesD. lf you see this 'Akeed dozing off and wonder why she doesn't close her eyes, don't be alarmed. She's simply looking for the thief who took her retainers! Somers hasn't been the same since she became a day student Qafter an emergency appendectomy that kept Miss Sunbeam in bed only three days D.

Eve Dyer Hoffmann Climb fm' with meg my goal if the sky How completely unattractive, she mumbles. I didn't have any money to pay the policeman, so I had to hock my class ring. Yes, Eveling, our eminent class president, is also known for her ability behind the wheel of her maroon convertible. Hockey is another of her achievements, 'tho she modestly says it's really nothing. We can go no further without mentioning her feats in the art room. Most often seen cheering either for Yale or Georgetown, this female with honey-red hair is the possessor of a sharp tongue, an hysterical sense of humor, a heart of gold, and grey knee socks. Evans has also enlivened many conver- sations with vivid accounts of summer parties at Nantucket, her Isle of Paradise. Evie is, to her friends, one insane girl, but that's the closest thing to genius, so don't be puzzled when she takes you home and shows you her animal kingdom, one by one! As you may have guessed, we all think Evie is tops.

Grayson Heed Cecil She rlaall leave behind her footprintr in the .randi of time Hey, I've done my homework for the next two weeks! How welcome those words are to the struggling population of M.V.S. who are trying vainly to keep up with the steps of their leader. At birth li'l Gray was God's gift to an unorganized world. She was blessed with brains, efficiency, and that outstanding ability to put across the right ideas and ideals. It's quite obvious that she never neglects eating her Wheaties, for who else but this Texas Dagmar and Hopalong Cassidy can do everything and still live tO tell it? This bundle of cheerfulness has steered our Ship of State through many a stormy sea as Student Body President. We have often been persuaded to abandon our evil ways by her persistent but never-offending note of warning. Here stands Gray-a worthy and fitting tribute to the infinite power of heartfelt reform.

Barbara Wahstar Burfnrll Be your bert, and let tbe good timer roll Grads, I'm really on a diet today! are the all too familiar words of Burpie. When one sees this Miss, one is convinced early in the ac- quaintance that she is from the South. Upon further knowledge, we aren't too surprised to hear that she hails from Louisville, which is famous for all its horses. Aside from the fact that she practices every- thing, including yogi at the lively hour of six each morning, Burp is famous for her one-sided- ness and her terrific yen for gooey bubble gum, she is also the school's champ in giggling. She has even taken up the gentle art of blowing smoke rings for her less fortunate associates. This character can create some of her own tense times by her uncanny ability to become engaged. She's lovely. She's engaged. Goodness, what eloer she use???????!

Janet Lnuise Blum Haw far that little candle tlvmwr its beam The Senior Boarding Department wishes to take this opportunity to express its warm apprecia- tion to Blum for the many wonderful parties and tasty tads she has so freely given after the weak, 'Tm starved! Have you anything for the poor and needy? This little bundle of fun won't ever let you for- get that she's from Pittsburgh, the great city of smoke control, and we've all grown used to that merry melody, Hail to Pitt, hail to Pitt, which echoes from Blum's room most any ol' time. She's a loyal supporter of the eyebrow club, but through some accident she lost hers! Did a flashlight break after lights, or were those study halls just too long and boring? As is the ambition of most of the senior class, this rebel is particularly fervid in wanting to go to college anywhere from which planes leave for Chicago.
