Betty Thomson Perchance thou italliest with the morning hour.” Irresponsible, good-natured Betty, whose happy-go-luckiness is half her charm, looks like a crowned angel in her picture, but—well she’s the pride and joy of the class when we’re looking for fun. Unbelievably, because of her fairy-like proportions she holds steadily growing aspirations to be the class bully, but, inspite of this tendency to roughness, or maybe because of it, we consider her pretty near what her picture makes her seem. But Betty also has the added attraction of twelve or a hundred seven passenger buses and at least ten chauffeurs, which she cheerfully shares with the rest of the school.

Her $1.95 lisle hose and her immaculate kid gloves (non-washable) are two things that vaguely suggest civilization in the senior room.

Catherine Wagner Order is a lovely thing.” Tat,” the veteran of the class, has been pursuing knowledge at Northrop since kindergarten days. Almost any sunny afternoon you may find her staying in the library, poring over weighty tomes, enlightening herself upon next week’s chemistry. She is always cheerful and good tempered, and what is even better, she is one of the few Seniors with an orderly locker and a complete uniform. Pane four teen
