10 The Tailer of 1933 MARGARET BENSON Sac flaxen were her ringlets Her eyebrou s of a darker hue. Around the last of January and the last of May, Benny always groans and bemoans her fate. But her cup isn’t so bitter as she’d have you think. She always finishes her exams just about the time the rest of us have thought of something to write, and what’s more, she doesn’t flunk them by a long shot. History is her specialty. The secret of her success is that she never forgets a date! MARION CARLSON My name it Fun—your crony dear, The nearest friend ye hoed Speaking of twits! Marion’s the craziest bat in the whole dash class. Between her absurd antics and sentimental soliloquies we’re kept in constant convulsions. Doubtless her peculiar talent for humor gave you all a good laugh in the Senior plays. We weren’t surprised at her success though. She always acts like that!

The Tatler of 1933 9 HENRIETTA ARTHUR We'll let her stand a year or tua. Six-’11 no Ik half so saucy yet. If, upon seeing the seniors, you notice someone who is continually stumbling over her own feet that she insists aren’t big, whose desire is to have six or a dozen closets full of clothes, and whose devotion is divided between Smokey Joe, the latest kitten, her finger nails, or lack of them, and a certain person who is scooh cute,” you know it is Miss Hermie Arthur. VIRGINIA BAKER Wee, sleekit, court in timorous Ik as tie, O, u hat a panic's in thy breastie ” A few typical remarks characterize Dimpy. Two months before a party, one might hear her say, Tm having a hissy because I don’t know who I’m going to the Dinner Club with.” But we don’t worry because she always draws one of the best men in town. She makes an announcement: Listen, Gang, get a load of this, etc.” For a little girl she makes a good gangster. Her line in the Senior plays, I’m gime for anythink,” was typical.

The Tatler of 1933 MARY DODGE There's news, lasses, news, Gude news Vi e to tell!” Though we have heard that every Mary is supposed to be contrary, Mary Dodge is not so very. And if you saw her in our plays, don't think that she acts so always. She really isn’t domineering. One of her chief claims to fame is that she knows the dope” on everything worth hearing, which is a pretty useful attribute sometimes. CATHERINE GILMAN CHAIRMAN OF PUBLIC INTERESTS COMMITTEE But urchin Cupid shot a s uift That play’d the dame a shade.” Though Catherine may get a red, red rose ;t Commencement for perfect attendance, we know that she’s only really here about half the time. (Don’t worry. Miss Avcs, not literally.) One of her outstanding talents is a great dramatic ability, which she uses to advantage on any occasion from being a king in the Christmas Play on five minutes notice to turning herself into a snobbish maid in the Senior Plays.
