Elizabeth Campbell Jones Khnwood, Maryland Four years Happy am P from care am free! W hy are n ' t fh ey al I con! e n t ed Uk e me? ' Anon y m o U S Lee, our Yankee import from Marblehead, Mas- sachusetts, wasn ' t reluctant to adopt the phrase, you alL ,T It is with this that she begins her scin- tillating and astonishing yarns. She is often a lavish hostess, entertaining Bermuda-clad seniors at her Kenwood home. At school, her ' duck 1 ' walk and her inexhaustable flow of conversation are her trade marks. Consequently, she was thrice elected a yellow team cheerleader. Her cheerleading antics can also be seen after tests; she has yet to complete one with- out shouting,” Well, I goofed on that one,” Known for her pet remarks, Lee seems always to be flus- tered, panicked ’ or stuck” on her trig But, because of her delightfully carefree nature, she al- ways seems to survive the worst.

Four years Eyes loo expressive to he hint, too lovely to he grey Arnold Big brown eyes, deep set dimples, a flow of con- versation and inimitable gesticulations, are as much a part of this curly headed girl as the cry , Wait, for me, gang! when she speeds into chapel at the last bell. One of the first to acquire a driver ' s license, Bcv has earned the title of James, the chauffeur. Her Knodemobile has often carried a load of seniors to Annapolis, the Hot Shoppe, or one of her famous slumber parties. A wonder to behold is her ability to be a conscientious student, an ardent hockey player, and tarry out the busiest of social schedules. We pity her writing arm if she should ever try to keep a diary of all her good times and all her jobs well done. 27

IV Page Ellyson Jennings Charlottesville, Virginia One year ft A rider unequaled. a sportsman complete Whyte Who ' s the girl wc often find sitting on her bed, writing that daily letter? Why, it ' s Penny, of course! A quiet girl, she is about as unpredictable as the Washington weather and her hai r-do changes as often. A lover of horses, she never fails to get her daily ride. Apparently, this pastime doesn ' t afford her enough exercise, for, after meals, Penny energe- tically and religiously exercises to music. Also a lover of hillbilly music, she shakes the very founda- tions of Somers when she plays her favorite record, forgot to Re member to Forget , As one of our new girls this year, any boarder would tell you that she has been an invaluable contributor to the happy atmosphere of Somers senior hall ' Barbara Gregg Ingalls Birmingham, Alabama Three years Fond of fun as fond can be Sayers In 1954 there was a sophomore around here with great big blue eyes and a brown dress. This is and she is still here and still has that brown dress. This is Butter bean, of course, who else but? If there is a good jitterbug record on the victrola, she will be dancing. If there is a group of people talking, she ' ll be the center. If there is a cloud of smoke, she ' s in the middle of it. And if you ever see a beautiful yacht (small ship), she ' s on it. Fun loving hardly describes shining Butte rbean, the Birming- ham kid. Full of mischief, the lights bell is only a starter for this one, and we certainly know the girls in the first room on the left downstairs will miss her next year. They won ' t be the only ones. f | Yellow Team; Sports Club. IV. 26

V. S. If she isn ' t delving into the mysteries of outer space, you might find her sampling a double dip cone at the Field House or on the basketball court helping the WHITES on to victory. Artistic- ally inclined, she ' s responsible for many of the clever, brightly colored posters in the halls. Also, Kit has spent many hours busy with pen and paper, effortlessly jotting down themes and stories rich in description and original in style. This year she has made use of this literary ability as editor of the Carousel. Always full of enthusiasm and with a dash of devilment in her eye, Kitten adds spice to life wherever she goes White Team; Basketball, III, IV; Softball, III; Sports Cfuk III, IV; Cupola, IV; Glee Club.
