' 7 hold no dream of fortune vast , Nor seek undying fame.” Guest I’m in a good mood today. ” This statement is a typical Monday morning Leofflerism — until lab. Gloria seems to be the shy type, but some know her better than that. With her own special sense of humor, she is the cause of sudden out- bursts of laughter — eh, Fran? Gloria is a member of the elite three in French IV who have been to France and are therefore able to exchange their American twang for throaty French sounds. Well, the time has come to leave, and there is Gloria, batting her big blue eyes and smiling shyly. Lyn McClure Washington, D. C. The clear brown eyes , kindly and alert .” Feaking A shining example to new girls, Lynn has made a place for herself during her one short year with us. As art editor of the Carousel , she has proven herself clever and talented; as a cheerleader, spirited and livly. Dimples” is quite an asset to the chemistry department. Always striving for the spectacular, she has accomplished every feat but blowing up the lab. This she will do with a little more practice. What next? Lynn asks innocently and points an acid-burned finger to a hole in her acid-burned sweater. Yellow Team; Cheerleader, IY; Sports Club. IV; Cltoi a. IV; Carousel, Art Editor. IV. 27

Sue McGaba Wichita Falls, Texas Glossy plumage , dark ami sleek. Baillif When this tall, attractive, sophisticated brunette walked through our gates, we were convinced at first sight that she was a New Yorker. But with the first utterance of Texas twang, our convictions were shattered. Although Sue can hardly see with- out her glasses, she is somehow able to choose the most beautiful clothes in the store and always looks as if she just stepped from a fashion page. Have you ever seen her bop? It’s quite a treat, but don’t be surprised when you receive a bill for Sue’s bopping instruction. Sue is a challenge to anyone who thinks she can out-talk that hilarious Wichita wit. Yellow Team. Glee Club. IV. Diane Stone Mellon Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania Lovely, blooming, fresh and gay. O’Keeffe Diane, a product of the Golden Triangle, is the only member of the Pittsburgh Pirates who can waltz. With her remarkable understanding of common love problems and her motherly instinct, Diane will someday be a successful kindergarten teacher — after Europe, of course! In many a quaint and atmospheric dining spot of I). C., you will find Diane, sparkling as ever, trying out a new exotic dish. The next time Diane is seen she will be in Paris, daydreaming as she watches the lights dance on the Seine; listening to the World Series on her portable radio.
