Mary Germaine Egan Lzfekr 4 pleasant in.rtitutian,' let ur take it as it comer Our staunch Marine advocate, the vivacious Miss Omaha, is most noted for her well-put remarks during study hall and her excellent taste in dress. We cannot help but mention her ever- lasting over-nights and the whispered intrigues which go on into Sunday night, giving details of the various top military men Miss Egan is fortunate enough to know. Let-us-all-do-our- bit-for-the-men-in-the-service ! ! How we envy her ability to whip together chic blouses and skirts! Oh, I just finished this sheath dress for Annapolis this weekend! If ever there was a loyal supporter of the re- nowned Betas, here is one whose name should go on as long as that society exists. Next to Betas comes the University of Nebraska. She agrees wholeheartedly with Mrs. Fullaway that her native Nebraska is the bestest with the most- est. White team, CUPOLA, IV. 21114 Sallie Illiphant lla Vnu And wit its bong lent, without its :ting Here's our Sallie, the girl with the Lana Turner hair style who hails from Pittsburgh but adds, I go to Rollingrock just as much. Sallie is most frequently seen at the Field House where she is the first to arrive and the last to leave during the blissful twenty-minute period extended to the smoky senior class of '52. Also, Sunday afternoons find this pro tennis player keeping the courts warm. She's been one of the White Team's big assets this year! On permissions, our lovely lady visits the Shore- ham with her cohorts, and 'tis rumored that the mortgage of said hotel may be transferred to the deVou family, At a big social gathering, look for a smoke ring and in its middle you're sure to find Sal Qunless she is roaming the campus with raised eyebrows and Bermuda shorts, wondering in which di- rection the Pittsburgh Pirates are ll.

llurnra Curtina Friendbf, with a :mile-a charming word that gave a grace But Miss DeZouche, I wasn't here at the be- ginning of the year! Whom do we find be- hind this woeful statement as great armloads of books fall to the floor? None other than our senior new-comer, Aurora, or Yoya. Al- though she came after the beginning of the year, she quickly showed us what a great deal of liveliness and enthusiasm can do for you when you're in a new country and a new school. Yoya hails from Mexico, and you should see what's down there waiting for her! Strange as it seems, this talkative and vivacious addition to M.V.S. seldom mentions him. Maybe she's playing it safe, eh? Her own personal interests include swimming and dancing, and we hear she's quite pro at both . . . Could be that the competition runs high in a family of seven children! Yoya has been a bright example to all of us this year of our neighbors south of the border. Yellow teamg prep players, IV. Betty Jean Elements She walkr in beauty like the night 'Tm frum Bur-min-haam, where are you frum? She came all the way with just her Bill Mon- key, a gift from a very special someone, to keep her company through what turned out to be the gayest, most fun-making senior year ever! B. is the one that takes baths after lights, and is known for calling down her roommate for disturbing her with wee small knocks. She once lost several years' growth when the wee small knocks turned out to be from Aunt Dottie! Bill is obviously The Object of Her Affectionsf' and he seems to go in for stuffed animals for gifts. This fresh-air fiend almost blew her room- mate out this winter, but at last spring sprung! Seen dashing from her room when the strains of Too Young reach l1er ear, or heard moaning over French exams, B. has really proved to be a gay asset to boarding life this year!

Nurma Suzanne Gewirz A senile with every Jtep Please get some ads! Just one little ad? Ah, come on, girls, this really is sad! From these historical lines our yearbook came into being! Norma around school is little Miss Efliciency in everything she sets out to accomplish, but when weekends roll around, she's just fun-loving Miss Gee-Whiz whose time is taken up by Mary- land. Of course, she says emphatically, I'm not a one-man woman! Most often seen talking excessively about noth- ing and everything, Norma takes life as it comes. We all see her each morning ready and waiting to hold the chapel door open, with a ponderous expression that seems to ask, Why don't they get a door stop for this place? Where the Nuke is, Norma is, and more than once has she furnished M.V.S. with jumpin' entertainment! Her most famous renditions are I've Got Plenty, How 'Bout You? and There's Been a Change in Me.

Lucille Piere Ferguson A merry heart maketh ez cheerful countenance Seen sunken quite far down behind the wheel of a huge Buick: one petite brunette, Name: Teal. This gypsy with a golden earring is most famous for: 1. Large blue-green eyes 2. A darling figure 3. Short hair cuts that keep getting shorter 4. An intense desire for any manner of foot- wear while dining at the Hot Shoppes. Who else almost succeeded in proclaiming a class holiday when her braces were taken off? Another thing-Mask this little musical demon the newest rendition of any current hit song, and she will gladly oblige with either one of her home-made records or a junior masterpiece by Miss Jazz herself! Note to all study-hall proctors: you don't think she's really reading out of that notebook, do you?!
