Anne’s chief claim lo fame is the fact that 'he exposed us all to whooping cough at the tender age of ten. There are other facts that ought to be taken into consideration, however. For instance, that she has been a Student Government Representative for three months and people still speak to her. It is hard to give the exact reasons why everyone likes her. but we know a few of them. She's a “stout fella” on the hockey team; there's nothing feeble about her brain, and she’s deemed a knockout” as to looks. No. she’s not perfect. Sire's quite stub-born. Page Ten T A T l E. R [| Orpheus is said to have charmed men into immobility by tire music from his magic lute, but “Dinnie with a piano produces music which seems to have an entirely opposite effect. She shows her good nature by playing on all occasions. but we have an idea that her conception of Paradise is a place where she won’t have to pound out jazz from twelve-thirty to one every time it rains. In addition to being the class musician she has been a mainstay of the hockey and basketball team-, and bus also served as a very efficient Chairman of the Welfare Committee. 3 3

Su anne Ixnglen and Betty possess wardrobe of about the tame variety and style, although we doubt if the tenuis star wear her to a many or to as interesting functions. The class has spent most of this year teasing Hetty about her tendency to “grouch”; we would like to confess right here that if we could do it as charmingly as she. we would all pout! There is no need to speak of her skill as an equestrienne, but of late, we have rather suspected her tastes to be leaning toward the water. Polly’s wit has been “making us witty” for something over five years now. With her gone from the halls of Northrop how solemn and tedious the school must become—and how barren and desolate the rudiutor in the Senior room will appear! Polly will lie universally missed, to lie sure, for there are not many classes who possess a humorist so unparalleled, but the spot where there will lie the most irreparable gap will Ik the Knglish room.

|l f M E I Q g 7 T A T L. E P. ll 'o Betty is an unusual pirl. She has sustained the class’s interest for the whole year, merely by her frequent changes of jewelry. There arc not many who, like her, can trip lightly through school on very Itigh-hcelcd slippers and still make a very great success of it. Perhaps the easiest way to explain her good fortune is to admit that she employs unusual tactics —whether military or football, we could never decide. Though she is a shining French scholar and has read more French novels and plays than anyone else in the class, you have to fairly die out this fact, for “’Croc is one of those self-effacing people. However, she forgets that she is a retiring nature in a basketball game and bangs around quite roughly. Though she hasn’t been at Northrop as long as some of the rest of us, she’s indispensable to the class, one of her chief merits being her ability to get people out for basketball. {’age Eleven
