Elizabeth Ann Barry ’’Business} It's quite simple. It's other people's money. —Dumas We have yet to find a clock that E’Ann will stoop to notice. Time moves too rapidly! Above the Senior Room chaos the familiar phrase, I just couldn’t make it any sooner,” can clearly be heard every morning. Even with her numerous activities, such as being President of World Affairs Club and Business Manager of the Tatler, E’Ann still takes time to get in a game of Bridge or the latest gossip in the Senior Room —also she manages to give a sympathetic or encouraging word to fellow classmates who need a boost. Term papers are postponed” till the last night when the coal oil burns late and E’Ann then arrives next morning with a masterpiece, to the amazement of her colleagues. A girl of pronounced opinions, E’Ann is always loyal to General Mills, Ireland, and ''The Fresh Air Fiends Club.” ’48 Business Manager of Tatler ’48 President of World Affairs Club ’48 Book Room Committee ’48 Dance Club ’47, ’48 Awards Committee ’47, ’48 Varsity Hockey ’47 Secretary-Treasurer of World Affairs Club ’47 School Procedure Committee 47 Secretary-Treasurer of Class ’46 Senior Dramatic Club

Barbara Barber lu't us remember that revolutions Jo not always establish freedom .”—Fillmore Despite eight long heart breaking years at Northrop, Bobbie, amazingly enough, has evinced a desire to keep on living! With the exception of those old post-weekend mornings, the face pictured above usually manages to wear a cheerful smile, even though you can scarcely get a glimpse of it as it streaks past ignorant fellow scholars who have to be warned the hard way about her boundless enthusiasms. Fellow lovers of trips out to Blake sympathized keenly with Bobbie, when early this year she suffered the great loss of the only car she could ever DRIVE—the tan train.” However, despite this tragedy, extra math courses, Northrop lunches, and various other catastrophies, Bobbie manages to make the honor roll, as well as to carry on an interesting extra-curricular career. Keep smiling Bobbie, it shows those dimples.

Miriam Bennett A little credulity helps one on through life very smoothly.”—Gaskcll Every class has its prodigy; every class has its clown; but we surpass all others, for we have Mimi, who is Northrop’s own inimitable combination of Hoagy Carmichael, Lauren Bacall and Whoopee John, the Yodclcr. As such, she is a constant source of amusement to the seniors, on mournful Mondays as well as on frivolous Fridays. However, Mimi, too, has her serious side, and has interests in music, art, and literature. Her perseverance as chairman of the Library Committee has made her the pride of Miss Cole and the terror of overdue book holders. Mimi’s Canadian experiences have made her an ardent lover of skiing, riding, ct cetera, and her naturally curly hair and deceptively naive blue eyes cannot go unnoticed—at least, for long. We are positive that Mimi's credulousness, cheerfulness, and casual manner will be missed in what remains of next year’s senior room! ’47, ’48 Senior Glee Club ’48 Chairman of Library Committee ’48 Dance Club '48 School Procedure Committee '47 Public Relations Committee—secretary ’47 World Affairs Club ’46 Varsity Hockey ’45 Junior Glee Club 14
