 Mtin's life is but a jest.”—Thornbury There aren’t enough words to describe this dynamo of energy. She manages always not only to be on the first Senior Room List, but also to wangle a date every Saturday night. ''Geg’s” varied experiences have made her advice much sought after. Jean is the most unique girl in the class, and her talents extend in all directions. Her artistic ability has brought her honors in a state contest, and fame at home as a cartoonist. Because of Geg’s wit and originality we have forced her to write most of our class skits and she has never disappointed us. Jean is a well-known figure at the bridge table, and how often have.the seniors heard just one more quick hand before class.” We are sure that this whirlwind with the flying mop of blond hair will long be remembered at Northrop. o Junior Dramatic Club—’44 Publications Committee—’47 Senior Dramatic Club—-’45, '47 Public Relations Committee—’45 Secretary-Treasurer of Class—’46 Assistant Editor of Tatlcr—’46

1bi ne fyait The highest of distinctions is service to others.”—Kin George VI If more than the usual commotion is heard issuing from the Senior Room, it is probably Di playing Hot and Cold” with a group of hysterical cronies. Her bizarre wit is a constant prop to the sometimes sagging spirits of the seniors, and her perpetual frantic search for a Spanish book keeps us wondering if she ever bought one at the beginning of the year. Her costume at school belies her good taste in clothes, as Di is notorious for frequent appearance at Northrop in a flaming scarlet blazer and gaudily striped socks to complete her uniform. We envy Di most for her completely managable hair. Its neat appearance through a weary day makes us regard our own dishevelled coiffures with grimness. As class president, Di has made a record of conscientiousness and sincerity that predicts well for her future in college.

Always the first to enter the Senior Room in the morning, Ruth invariably greets each new arrival from over the pages of her history book. Less dcligcnt seniors view with amazement the record that she has consequently maintained, for Ruth’s winning scores in the Time Tests show the results of her enthusiasm. Another subject of amazement is her nigh-pcrfect attendance, for despite flu, mumps, and other epidemics which sweep the school. Miss Spurr can always count on the presence of Ruth to keep Northrop going. We are wondering how the Glee Club will survive without her, for she has been a faithful member six long years. With her musical ability and many other talents, Macalcster College is certainly lucky to have our Ruth.
