Ann Gray Born with tlx gift of laughter and a sense that the world is mad —Sabatin Ann's casual manner, unshakcable calm, and easygoing assurance enable her to remain unruffled through the thousand dramas daily” which are perpetrated on the Senior Room stage and which leave the rest of us gibbering idiots. She is never fazed by the maniacal Bridge games and gossip sessions which rage about her head, and one of the most familiar Senior Room sights is Ann, curled up in our coveted red chair, quietly studying. One of the luckiest seniors, Ann has several major interests” in life, all of whom she manages to keep fascinated. She is further endowed with blonde hair, an easily tanned skin, and a sleek blue Buick convertible. Ann, with her controlled serenity is a steadying influence on our class, and, as such, is most surely an invaluable senior. ’48 Library Committee ’48 Dance Club '47 World Affairs Club ’47 Varsity Volleyball 23

Suzanne Ginnings They do not love that Jo not show their love. —Shakespeare To Suzy belongs the unusual characteristic of always having something nice to say about her friends— even behind their backs. However this kindness docs not extinguish the devilish gleam in her eyes or her fiendish ideas which have startled many of us. During the year she acquired gold rimmed glasses for nocturnal perception as an added attraction to a wardrobe which has already brought many an envious sigh. Suzy limits her extra-curricular activities in school in order to carry on her non-scholastic pursuits which would otherwise be impossible. Her assertions of her lack of brain power arc most discouraging to others who draw the same grades as she—they were just beginning to think themselves brilliant! However, despite her alleged stupidity,” Suzy has been accepted at Finch for almost a year. Here’s luck to Suzy, a terrific friend!—or is that spelled fiend? 22 ’48 Dance Club

Barbara Gray A merry bear doeth like good medicine. —Anonymous Babs has a blessed gift of laughter at any situation. As class secretary and attendance-taker, a trying position, she cheerfully accepts our flimsy excuses as we come straggling into the Senior Room each morning, late as usual. It must be innate kindness which enables Barbara actually to like her fellow seniors when they berate their teachers, strew papers about, and bemoan their problems. The pride of Shocy’s gym squad, and we definitely do not mean posture classes, Babs has one of the most attractive figures in our class, and a head to match. An eager student, this year Babs became interested in a fable by Fontaine and can often be heard spouting quotations from said fable. Remember He, Bonjour!” Babs, you’re bound to meet some fascinating people with it. ’48 Class Secretary ’48 School Procedure Committee ’48 Varsity Hockey ’48 Dance Club ’47, ’48 World Affairs Club ’47 Varsity Basketball 24
