Joan Fullerton The world is a wheel, and it will come ’round right.”—Hawthorne As Ve Olde bus comes motoring down the hill, we all know that Joanie has arrived safely at Northrop ready to start another day. Joanie’s neat appearance and calm personality midst the turmoil of the Senior room is a mystery and the envy of her shrieking classmates. She only mutters not another day!” and continues her knitting or studying. Not only is she an intellect” but also she has been a faithful member of every varsity and class team and has spent many week-ends at Telemark skiing, thus proving her athletic ability. Joanie, through her friendliness, poise, and wit, will always be remembered by the Senior class as a girl of fun and enthusiasm. Throughout the year, Joanie’s energy and co-operation as vice-president of the School Procedure Committee has contributed to and furthered the success of the student government. Northrop will be proud of her wherever she goes. ’49 Vice-president School Procedure ’46 Junior Glee Club ’47, ’49 Glee Club ’46 Entertainment Committee ’47 Public Relations ’48, ’49 School Procedure ’46, ’47, ’48, ’49 Varsity Hockey ’46, ’47, ’48, ’49 Varsity Basketball ’46 Varsity Softball ’47 All School Hockey 19

Barbara Finch hate hardly ever known a mathematician wlx) uas ca(table of reasoning—Plato If you should have happened to have heard a strange thumping coming from the Northwest end of the building, don’t be alarmed, it is Finch either showing us her repertoire of ballet steps, or expounding on her slightly one-sided views of the last election, these being just two of her greatly diversified interests. Despite her professed lack of mathematical ability. Finch last year proved to be a very capable co-treasurer of the League and again this year is proving her competence as Business Manager of the Ta ler. (So far at least, she has not been accused of embezzlement.) We all know Finch's dramatic skill whether we arc watching her on the stage or listening in the Senior Room to her imaginative accounts of her past, present, and future romances. This year she was rewarded with the presidency of the Dramatic Club for these talents. When not thinking of THE Irish tiger, she is busy maintaining her place as scholastic head of our class. We know that her generosity, wit, and snappy comebacks will be appreciated as much in the future as they are now. ’48 Co-Treasurer of League ’49 Business Manager of Tatler ’46 Jr. Dramatic Club ’47, ’48, 49 Sr. Dramatic Club ’49 President of Dramatic Club ’47, ’48, '49 World Affairs Club ’46 Publications Committee ’47 School Procedure Committee ‘46, ’47, '48 Awards Committee ’46, ’47, ’48, ’49 Varsity Hockey ’47 All School Hockey '48 Varsity Basketball 18

Elinor Goodrich And Wrinkled Sport Derides—Milton Undoubtedly the most unconcerned face in the Senior class belongs to our girl, Elinor. While she placidly sits and whips up another sweater, other seniors are tearing their hair and losing their minds over a Chemistry test. Perhaps the greatest mimic of all times, Elinor can send one into a tit of laughter, especially when she contorts her face like Pluto the Pup or does her Arabesque dance routine. Elinor is perhaps possibly the best coordinated, most loose-jointed girl in the Senior class. Not only can she sink a 50-yard hook shot in basketball, but she will challenge the tallest hill in order to practice a new ski turn. She also plays a wicked game of tennis. The only reason she carries books home, she claims, is to develop her arm muscles, it docs wonders for her tennis game, she says. Every now and then she pulls down some astonishing good marks. There's little need wishing her good luck in the future, for Elinor is bound to have all the luck in the world. ’49 Class Treasurer '49 Staff Head of Art for Tatlcr '46, '47, '48, '49 Publications '46 Junior Dramatic Club '47 World Affairs '46, '47, '48, '49 Varsity Hockey '48, '49 Varsity Basketball '46 Varsity Softball '47 All School Hockey 20
