Library Council IV. Louise Shindel Bertels Kingston, Pennsylvania Two years Loyalty is the holiest good in the human heart ' Tall, vivacious, good looking, with a long dark page boy, a smile, and a good word for everyone— that ' s our Weezte! If she ' s not playing on a varsity, or lead ' ing the Whites to victory, she will most likely be found listening to the latest Rock-and-Roll records, (or just possibly Joni James!). You can be almost sure she will be wearing Bermudas, sneakers, and that maroon crew -neck swearer — and talking about the Jag, of course. She is on a perpetual diet ( why. 111 never know), bur I ' ve often seen her burning the midnight oil hav- ing just a little snack. 1 Weezies wonderful personality, easy-going manner, and terrific school spirit have made her a great asset to Mount Vernon. Barbara Berry Washington, D.C Four years Win without boasting f lose without excuse, ' The door slams- — at can only mean that Barbara has arrived. Noisy and breezy, her gaiety and good -humor are infectious. B.B, charms everyone with her viva- cious manner and marvelous sense of humor. Her enormous blue eyes and perky, turned up nose make you smile, whether you want to or not. She takes an enormous amount of teasing with a good-natured ‘Oh, you -all! Barbara is practically a prodigy in athletics. Look under her picture, and you will find hockey and tennis varsi ties L IL III, IV; quite a record. Basketball also claims our gal. On the weekends, you will find her practicing diligently for her next golf tournament. Because of this interest in sports, she has been the A. A. representative from her form since freshman year. I don ' t think anyone had too much trouble de- ciding who would be nominated for A. A. president — B B. won, hands down.

White Team; Cellophane Business Manager IV; CUPOLA IV; Lend-a-Hand IV; Chape! Guild IV. Frances Arthur Union, South Carolina Two years u Laughter and wit went flashing so free ' The minute I enter the House of Hi-Fi (Frances ' room), I notice one thing: everyone’s laughing . , . well, smiling at least! The reason is quite simple — Frances is there. Her subtle remarks are served up with a syrupy Southern drawl, a well dimpled chin, and a devilish twinkle. Tance h has definite likes and dislikes. Among the latter are snobs, busy-bodies, and people on diets. She ignores the first two, and gendy chides the dieters, because, as usual, she’s going on a diet mahana. Her enthusiams include bridge, the rolls served in the Refectory, and parties. She ' s a ' natural for Glee Club with that deep, husky voice of hers, which has added the light touch to our singing group this year Ah sho’ly am gonna miss ya 1 TanceL Katherine duPon t Andrews Somerset, Virginia One year Wot much talk — -a great sweet silence In one short year, Kitten has accomplished more than seems possible. Not only has she made a good academic record, but she’s fitted right in with all the extracurricular activities. She’s business manager of Cellophane, and on the business staff of CUPOLA. Kitten is in possession of one of the more subtle wits on Upper Senior hall — her tales of Orange have kept us laughing all year. If you can ' t find Kitten after classes, and she’s not in the Rec Room playing bridge, you can bet that she’s in the Field House, on one of her ’ dieting sprees! I’m so glad you came to Mount Vernon this year, Kitten, but 1 have a question, Why didn ' t you come sooner?

Carol Ann Best Washington, D.C. Four years f ' A constant friend is a thing rare and hard to find. Carol just bubbles all over when she ' s happy, and she ' s happy most of the rime. Nu one could help lov- ing Carol, she has so much love to give. When you need to talk, she s there to listen. And you know she ' s interested. And when she needs to talk, you want to be there to help — because you care. Very much a part of Mount Vernon, she headed Social League this year. With many laughs, much hard work, and tact and maturity, all Carol, she suc- ceeded, with dances that left many memories. She has a laugh with a little bounce to it, excitement that can not keep still, eyes that grin, hospitality un- limited, informal parties, dates and drtes and more dates — our Valentine Queen, Carol, White Team; CUPOLA II, IV; Cellophane Editor III; Class Secretary 11; Leach a -Hand III, IV; Chapel Guild IV; Cheer- leader IL 1 ) L Captain IV; House Council 11, HI, President IV.

' Weyull, it wuz lyke thiyuss,’ and Jane is off on another tall tale, told Southern style, with all the trimmings. Her Carolina drawl and fascinating laugh have kept us in hysterics ever since she arrived. Jane is a combination of efficiency, energy, and enthusiasm. In her Junior year she was the Editor of Cellophane t and this year she has done an extraordinarily good job as President of Somers House. What makes Jane outstanding is the rare combination of diligence and gaiety of spirit. Who else could do as much as Jane has done, and still find time for nightly bridge games, pizza at G usd ' s, and riotous weekends in Greensboro? Yes, that ' s our Jane, and I can guarantee that it will be a long time before anyone can begin to fill her place. Well, it was like this. 19
