Harriet Torrey Matheson Ferry Point, Virginia Four years She puts trouble in bottom of the trunk , then sits on the lid and smiles ’ Because she is cheerful and always smiling, Torrey is one of the girls on whom you can constantly depend to add a spark to even the dullest day. 1 have noticed that Torrey has always maintained a sunny atmosphere around here, making those in her pres- ence look at the bright side of life along with her. Her sincerity and unselfishness are extended to even the most casual acquaintance, and through four years at Mount Vernon, Torrey has been known as the cute little redhead whom everyone respected and adored, I don ' t believe I ' ll ever forget Torrey. Her own special brand of graciousness, tact, sincerity, and hap- piness has rubbed oft just a little bit on everyone who has known her. 29 Jessica VanMeter LeBus Cynthiana, Kentucky Two years A face with gladness overspread. Jess is well-known for her Kentucky accent and those ever- lovin ' rebel ways. She has a keen sense of humor, and when you’re feeling low, no one else can cheer you up quite as fast as she can. Crew meek sweaters, plaid shirts and belts, and collegiate Ber- mudas are a must in her wardrobe. Isn’t my hair long?” is typically Jess. I see her every afternoon down in the Field House, buying that daily chocolate ice cream cone, and I can almost guarantee that if she’s not there, shell be up in Somers, writing letters to her many admirers. Anytime, anywhere, Jess is ready for a good time, and you can be sure she ll have it! 1 know she ' ll be as well liked everywhere she goes as she is here at M.V.S. She just has that ’certain something!” W White Team; Social League 111, IV; Cellophane II. Ill; Lend- a -Hand IV; Hockey varsity II, HI, IV; CUPOLA L IV; House Council IL IV; Chapel Guild IV,

Patricia King Washington, D.C. One year f, The sweet expression of that face , forever changing, yet the same. A gentle laugh and an uproarious pun more often than not describe our one-year “steal from Western High School. That sense of humor overcame her initial shyness in a big hurry, and ever since she has kept us smiling. Patsy started right off enthusiastically helping wherever she could. She has made more than one suc- cessful poster and has offered some really good quotes for Cupola, She enjoys helping out so much that, somehow, you can hardly believe she really is working. Sweet, and as much fun as that sparkle in her eyes, an easy to-listen-to voice, always neat, and truly pretty. Patsy is one of the very nicest people 1 know. ' 4 Yellow Team; Cupola IV. Katherine Wallace Law Cranford, New Jersey One year ”0n with the dance ” Kathy s just been here a year, but she has made a place for herself, not only as a senior class member but as an irreplaceable contributor to the school spirit She immediately became a White Team cheerleader, and earned a leading part in the Christmas Play. I know Kathy loves dances ,too, because practically every Saturday night I see her all dressed up, ready to go. Hailing from the North, she has many tales ro tell of skiing at Stowe, and wonderful parties at Bay Head. Kathy is never at a loss for words, and although she insists she’s quiet, her vivaciousness belies the fact. Kathy is known, and will be remembered, for her sparkling smile, and effervescent personality. W hite Team; White Team Cheerleader IV; Prep Players IV. 28

Katherine Hiatt Moody Orlando, Florida Two years “Nothing endures but personal qualities ' ’ Sparkling mischievous blue eyes and a bright smile make Katie Moody a pleasure for everyone to know. Her quiet sophistication, level head, and touch of humor all combine to make her one of the brightest stars in the senior class. She is never without a ready ear and a kindly word of advice for her friends. She is capable of making anyone laugh at her stories and puns. This cute gal from Orlando, Florida, can be found doing various things — arranging props for Prep Players, going to the Georgetown Neighborhood House, taking weekends at different colleges, writing millions of letters, and participating in all school activities. One thing is certain, she has more vitality and enthusiasm than any two people I know. Mrs. Lloyd, couldn ' t you figure out some reason why Katie should stay here next year instead of letting her go off to college? Qqcjs 3.

When I look for Shelby, l almost invariably find her lost in a mass of crinolines, or a man-sized crew -neck sweater, talking vivaciously to a circle of friends. T, Shels ' % is always efficient, whether shes collecting dues for the Yellow Team or contributing ideas for a class project. And where would the hockey team be without her ability and enthusiasm? In four years at Mount Vernon, Shels has cheered many of her school- mates with her hysterical tales of Beach Experiences. Ill miss Shelby and those stories next year.
