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.

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!

12 The Tatler of 1933 FRANCES GODWIN For Nature made her what she is, And ne'er made sic an it her.” The Class Kleptomaniac. Anything from cake-plates to a large pair of gentlemen’s overshoes has been found in her locker. (The mystery is where her own things go.) It’s all temperament, though, for as one can tell by looking at her always painty or inky face, she’s a budding artist and authoress. But her chosen field will surely be the stage, as she so clearly demonstrates by her graceful renditions of the Hula-Hula. ESTHER HARDENBERGH CHAIRMAN OF STUDENT GOVERNMENT COMMITTEE Her yellow l)air he yon J compare Comes trinkling down Iyer swanlike neck. There never was a story told or a statement made but what F.sty steams up, with more questions than six people could invent, and proceeds to get to the bottom of things.” Yes, even the great arc human. Our L. P.. now that the truth can be told without damage to our (once) Senior dignity, has even been known to play hidc-and-go-scck under the rugs, though the rest of us kept such things pretty dark at the time.
