Yellow Team; Cupola, IV; Glee Club, III. Frances Lee Hummel Washington, D. C. ff Integrity , healthy soundness to the full.” Jeffers Everyone at Mount Vernon will agree that it is Fran who is responsible for the high level of sport spirit. As president of the Athletic Association, I ran has expended much time and energy in arous- ing the student body from a state of indifference to one of exhuberance. Her efforts are not confined to sports, however, for she gives herself unselfishly to all phases o f school life. In spite of her many extra-curricular activities, Fran has always main- tained a fine scholastic record. What is it about Fran that has endeared her to all of us? Perhaps it’s the wonderful combination of friendliness, good humor, and complete honesty. Cynthia Hughes Washington, D. C. rf Lit tie 1 ask; my wants are few” Holmes Ciny is a Wilson veteran who has been with us for two years. Although she appears quiet to those who don’t know her well, Ciny is quite a gay blade at heart. At parties her secret personality reveals itself in the form of demure hilarity. Not a single weekend finds Ciny at home — she simply disap- pears until Monday morning. Ciny is always ready to help a friend with any task and does it cheer- fully. Tiny, dark, and feminine, she possesses many ladylike qualities that we all would like to acquire. Yellow Team; Hockey, II, III, IV; Basketball, II, III, IV; Baseball, II, III, IV; A. A.

Lucy Matheson Hight Washington, D. C. Youth is full of pleasure Shakespeare Lucy, a member of the Bermuda Bell Club, is frequently seen in her bright green convertible, commonly known as The Grasshopper.” Always in love, with the Navy in particular, Lucy is unanimously named Most Likely to Marry First. We still have one question: How did she manage to be absent more than she was present? Lucy must be commended for her ability to break more legs and tear more ligaments than anybody at M. V. S. Why, she even jumped in front of a car! How we have enjoyed her strange but hilarious remarks about that bottle of peroxide. White Team. Manager, IV; Ct toi a, IV; Glee Club, I. II. HI. IV. Margery Virginia Hudson Chevy Chase, Maryland Do hold things in a quiet way.

Margie is known for her successful parties and for her active participation in school activities.
