Barker Joan is one of those versatile people who do almost everything very well. She has l)een one of our most outstanding scholars as well as a dependable athlete. Every hockey season she dons ski boots and mask to defend our goal; she won her chevron this year. Joan has taken a very active part in the student government, serving on the League Council as secretary and as vice-president. Barker has also supplied the Glee Club with a firm and melodious alto for two years. Joan seldom writes about anything except China, but her literary efforts are both original and skillful. Yet probably we envy most her warm security in many thick letters and the eventful orchids, roses, and telephone calls from a far distant army camp. Sadly, Joan will travel to the opposite coast next fall to enter Wellesley.

Ashley dl lariCyn Zty f ‘‘Few things arc impossible to diligence and skill.” —Dr. Johnson One of the art room’s most familiar sights is Marilyn landing painstakingly Over a poster. For Marilyn has been one of Dunkie’s most faithful—and most artistic students. Her heart lies in the held of fashion design, and she has put this talent to an enviable use in making her clothes, blithely altering the | attern as fancy dictates. A senior who has missed a history class’ usually asks, “Where are Ashley’s notes?” for Marilyn is as neat in taking notes as she is about everything. Her own unruffled appearance contrasts vividly with the horrid asj ect of many another senior. Marilyn is endowed with a lovely soprano voice, and she has not only l een an asset to the Glee Club but has also given much free time to volunteer singing at patriotic rallies. Marilyn, with her many talents, will undoubtedly shine at the U. of M. next year.

Beaver czrfnn P Rave. ±on I love a teeming wit as I love my nourishment.” —Jonson Here we have the haby of our class. She uion't let us print the exact statistics so you’ll just have to take our word for it. Beaverson has an inexhaustible spring of enthusiasm which is inspiring for the rest of us. Along with this enthusiasm comes a bubbling good humor and more often than not. you will find Beavie chuckling over something. Jean has been at Northrop for the last two years, and has made quite a record for herself. In the Dramatic Club she made a name for herself as “Bunibu”. In the (dee Club she amazed us bv changing from a soprano to an alto over the summer. Then we must not overlook the fact that she has been a very able co-editor of the Spectator and Tatlcr, We have no doubt but that our “baby will make quite a place for herself at Wellesley next year.
