 Her ways are ways of pleasantness and all her paths are peace.”—Proverbs I Who is the only senior who has her eyes open in the morning, who looks awake and cheerful? Jean. She is always willing to play a hand of bridge in the morning, and even remembers the rules. When Jean is not playing bridge, she is studying madly. When the Senior Room gets too noisy, she retreats to the hall table where, in spite of constant heckling from her classmates, she really seems to accomplish something; she always shows us up by getting good marks. Jean has many other accomplishments, too. She is a loyal member of the Glee Club. In fact she is one of the mainstays of the second soprano section. She is also a member of the Dramatic Club, and has had a number of successes. In short, Jean has been a great asset to Northrop and a good friend to her classmates.

Gyathia KtiolUaucli And loir is the sweetest thing on earth. —Roche Every year since Kindergarten days, Cynthia has trotted down the back hill to Northrop, but this year she has slightly changed her course in order to mail her daily letter to points east. Her outstanding athletic ability was rewarded this year when she was elected all school captain of the Blue Team. It amazes all the seniors to sec Cynthia so rowdy and boisterous in the Senior Room and yet so quiet and reserved in the class room. We know that our amiable Cynthia is close at hand whenever we hear her familiar quips: 'Oh Birdseed!” and Can I have a ride with anyone who is going home during the day?” Cynthia has reversed the old adage about All work and no play—etc, etc. Result: Nothing dull about Cynthia.

Hetty Claire Jlee Let us work without disputing; it is the only way to render life tolerable. —Voltaire As far as wc know, B. C. is the only girl who can get an A on a theme written after a Sunday night date. On days when themes are due, she attributes that haggard look to an all night vigil by the ink bottle. When out of uniform, she lives in blue-jeans; it is a rare occasion when she deems it necessary to wear a dress. The fact that she has been on all the varsity and class teams proves her athletic interest and great enthusiasm for all sports. Her gym locker is notorious because of its resemblance to Fibber McGee’s closet. B. C.’s curly hair is the envy of everyone, for she need never worry about the curl coming out. Wc will remember Betty Claire for her sincerity and straightforwardness, her husky voice, and the ubiquitous Hey, you guys,” with which she meets every situation.
