‘R.ax cvty 'rfyyde Any senior who has a first period study is bound at some time to see our St. Boni-facius girl arrive late, heavily loaded with books, saying that the car wouldn’t start— again. Roxy’s definitely full day comprises playing the piano, adding more books to her fabulous reading list, exercising the horses,” and telling us about how one dog stole the meat supply, etc., etc. She is one of the class’s better athletes and more conscientious students—we have seen her move kit, kaboodle and typewriter into the Senior Room to write the last half of her term paper the day it is due. Roxy and her Mound home will linger on in Northrop tradition for six more years—as long as the seventh grade docs not forget the momentous party of last fall. ”Wc arc two travelers, Roger ami I.

 waCitte Turn the pages of ye olde school annual and witness the fruits of Caroline’s year of toil—her struggle to get snapshots, clear, appropriate, varied, and unposed.’’ At times Caroline is the epitome of talkative enthusiasm, the subjects of her conversation ranging from serious-minded comment on current affairs that have made her a runner-up in the Time tests to such ejaculations as Terrific! or Ma-ad passion!” about some frivolous feminine frill. If you have one of the school calendars, you have a memento of Caroline’s artistic talent in her sketch for the March page. Caroline’s trademarks are her large, green eyes, long, red fingernails, feather haircut and shapely legs. Were man but constant, be were perfect.” Senior Drama Club—’43, ’44 School Procedure Committee—’45 Awards Committee—’45 Publications Committee—'46 Varsity Hockey—’43, ’44 19

 Here we have Barby (spelled with a y”) Long. If she is not holding her own in a friendly argument, she is showing us one of the finer points of bridge. It is Barby, the Minnesota fan, who keeps us up on all the football news and the life history of the team. She claims she is the screen porch type, but don’t believe it. She is often seen on the golf course, and she is skipper of one of the two sailboats on Lake Bcmidji. Long is an inspiration to many with that determined will power practiced at the lunch table. The topics of her continuous conversation range from bathing her cocker spaniel, to a new pair of earrings. Contrary to the popular belief about red hair, Barby does not have an explosive temper, and her winning smile makes an impression wherever she goes. She would interrupt St. Peter's roll call to ask him a question.
