PEGGY CARPENTER We feel that Peg has a claim to fame in that she was the first of our lucky thirteen to enter these ivied walls. Back in about 1924. she toddled into the Kindergarten to begin her studies (we hope) which have kept her busy here ever since. Along with Peg came a Cheshire cat grin, a unique sense of humor, and an undeniable talent for getting into trouble. Although after the sixth grade she could no longer say with a straight face that she didn't know she couldn't chew gum in school, there were many things left to do that she hadn't yet been told were against the rules. Since the distant days when we showed our noble spirit in Captain Ball. Peg has proved herself an able leader on the athletic battle-field, for she takes her sports with unwonted seriousness. We wish, to round things off. that we could call Peg our class Prima Donna.” but we fear she will have to forfeit that title until the day she sings one accurate scale. Meantime her bazooka solo work expresses the true musical side of her nature.

★ CAROLINE ADAMS Caroline is the only girl in our class who aspires to be a newspaper woman. In view of her work this year we not only wish her luck, but are sure that she will be a success. Carry has many hidden talents which are only unearthed after much persuasion. Among her accomplishments are playing the piano and xylophone. Although she came to us only this year, we feel that she and her dry humor have been a part of us for years. A familiar phrase in the senior room is I have to go down to Chicago this week-end.” We to whom the excursion to the Northwestern game was a high-light of the year, can hardly hope to sympathize with this indifferent attitude. Perhaps her work on the Tatler board will start her on her career in journalism. ☆ 7

★ LESLIE FLANNERY Tritely we shall mention with envy her hair, and classify her among the best dressed women of America. Dolly is always an authority on the latest legal matters and has definite political versions and aversions. She follows the fairways and is an enthusiastic football fan. Sail boats and an island off the coast of Maine are her two weaknesses. Dolly is known in room 29 for her exotic spur-of-the-moment coiffures. We want to compliment her on her vocabulary whose full extent lies in the word “Why? One of the first of our class to wend her way to a dance, she has been a centre of attraction at every party since. Besides her love for music, schooners, and clothes, she has a passion for lobster. She can't bear broken finger nails and over work is apt to upset her. (We might add that she docs it. nevertheless, and with great success.) When Dolly is graduated from Northrop, where she has been taught since the sixth grade, she plans to enter Smith. ☆ 9
