Sara Morrison Harris Charlotte, North Carolina Four years The sweet expression of that face, forever changing, yet the same ' Browning The field house is rocking with the voices of the hillbilly singers from Somers, there is no doubt as to who is leading the group. It is the unmistakable Sara Harris. Saras presence never goes unnoticed. In the refectory, she is the lunch room chatter box; at the mail table, she is the first in line; and on the dance floor, she is surrounded by masculine admirers. The latter could not be otherwise for not only is she friendly, gay, talkative and charming but she is also the epitome of smart style in clothes. Resem- bling a page from Vogue with enviable complexion, radiant hair, polished fingertips and slender silhou- ette, how could anyone resist her?

Elizabeth Caroline Hohlt Houston, Texas O ne year rt A true friend is forever a friend ’ MacDonald Whether she has a banana in her ear or a crown on her head, Betty is the life of every party and a friend to all. Her eyes of Texas shine upon you with a sparkle of enthusiasm. Even though this was her first year at Mount Vernon, she became secre- tary of Lend-A-Hand, a peppy cheerleader, and White Team Captain during the last semester. Cer- tainly she is to be congratulated for holding these offices with such competence as well as for her other virtues, for in all we do, in all we say, she is behind us, making all those around her happy. Her allegi- ance is pledged to the Lone Star State, but her heart is forever w r ith her friends. White Team, C aptain Second semester.

Katharine Mary Beatrice Hadow Bli AGON SFI ELD, BUCKINGHAMSHIRE England One year He was my friend f faithful and juft to me” SHAKESPEARE Kate came from England this year and immedi- ately fitted herself into Mount Vernon. She seemed to have no qualms as she entered a school and a coun- try strange and new to hen Before long Kate had made a place for herself in the class and had been elected to several school offices, most important of all becoming busines s manager of Carousel. Her typically English poise and fascinating accent have added both humor and enjoyment to our class. Cute and vivacious although restrained, she is often seen walking through the halls with a prayerbook for chapel or a broken test tube and a dime for Miss Eulton. Mount Vernon will surely miss this English lass.

Linda Hollis Hall Falls Church, Virginia Two years Cheerfulness is an off shoot of goodness and wis- dom ” Bov EE ' Please hand in your write-ups!” You might say that this is one of Linda s most frequent remarks as literary editor of our yearbook. Walking into a classroom with clipboard in hand, Linda, you can be sure, is on the trail of an article for Cupola. Because of her creative ability, Linda is always in demand, but Cupola has claimed most of her time. She can recall many happy hours of her leisure time on the Severn River and longer vacations on the North Carolina coast— with or without hurri- canes. Pert, vivacious, and cheerful, Linda makes up for her size by her actions, both serious and fun- loving. When she goes off to college and onto a dental career, we can be sure that Mount Vernon won ' t be the only school to miss her. There ' s always the Academy, eh, Linda? 23

Hilda Hutchins Bangor, Maine Two years ” Individuality is everywhere to he spared and re- spected as the root of everything good” Richter Who remains calm and collected midst turmoil and crisis? Who is it that just knows her blind date will be a drip, and then has the best time of all at the dance? Who is the person that at first seems a little shy, but whose personality displays a kindness and quality of character seldom found? A true and steady friend through all, the best proctor on the hall, Hilda is the girl with whom we associate the Maine Maritime Academy; red, white, and blue rail- road cars; a slight disturbance in the library; and many other incidents too numerous to mention. Wherever Hilda goes, better known as ' HiT or Hutch 1 ' , people will love her as we do. The class of would be incomplete without our New Eng- land representative. Barbara Edwards Honaker Huntington; West Virginia Two years Her air, her manners , all who saw admired ; courte- ous , though coy f and gentle, though retired ” Crabbe Barbara, our girl from West Virginia, is loved by all who know her, and she leaves cheer and a generous feeling wherever she goes. Barbara is admired most of all for her amazing ability to look neat at all times. She not only dresses to perfection, but her winning manner, happy smile and charm set Barbara apart as a special girl. She is also a stu- dent, one whom Mount Vernon can be proud of, A steady worker and an enthusiastic Sports Club mem- ber, Barbara is always ready to lend a helping hand. Anyone with worries or blues can depend on her for help and friendly advice. As she leaves, Mount Vernon w ishes her all the luck and happiness possible in years to come.
