Barbara Parker The Gentle MinJe by Gentle Deeds is Knou ne. —Spenser When you hear a shrill, maniacal giggle reechoing throughout the senior room you can be certain that Barbie or Parker” as she is more commonly known, has arrived at her usual time, 8:3 5. Evidence of schizophrenic tendencies is substantiated by her intermittent periods of naive little girlishness and quaint sophistication. Parker’s sincere good word for everyone is deeply appreciated and will always be remembered. Her unusual combination of artistic and literary abilities is a never ceasing source of envy and amazement to all the seniors. Parker has proven herself to be an invaluable member of the class by her active participation in class meetings and her rare humor in the senior room. We all know that she will be a great success in college and will always bring credit to Northrop. 46 Junior Dramatic Club ’49 Senior Dramatic Club '47, ’49 World Affairs Club ’49 Public Relations Committee

Nancy Nelson I shall ne'er he ’ware of mine own wit, till I break my shins against it.”—Shakespeare Cahill’s loss was definitely Northrop’s gain when Tina” decided to grace these hallowed halls with her subtle sense of humor. Each morning we put our heads together and wonder if our little farmerette has finished the milking in time for her to catch the last milkwagon to town. She usually makes it, and as she takes the last bale of hay from her pocket, we hear the voice of our amicable secretary chime out, Do 'youse’ want to be counted tardy?” Another hectic day! We weren’t mistaken when we voted Nancy most entertaining” in our class poll for she is constantly keeping the class in convulsions with her timely and hysterical remarks. Not a complete imbecile, Tina” was elected seventh grade class president and is one of the most popular members of our class. An ardent worker as assistant editor of the 1949 Ta ler and secretary of the senior class, Nancy is continually on the go.” Having seen much of the world and a great deal of W'ayzata, we know she will be able to take care of herself wherever she goes. ’49 Secretary of Class ’49 Assistant Editor of Ta ler ’48 Entertainment Committee ’47, ’48 Varsity Hockey ’46 Jr. Dramatic Club ’47, ’48 Sr. Dramatic Club ’46 Jr. Glee Club ’47 Sr. Glee Club 25

Marylynn Rice How sweet ami fair she seems to be. —Walker Mitzi is the only member of the Senior class who manages to arrive at school early, in fact she even helps Mullen to unlock the iron doors. She claims this is the only time she does her studying, but she always receives any other early comer with enthusiasm, despite her craving for studying. Mitzi has been a member of the class since the eighth grade and has been trudging in from far off Hopkins faithfully each morning. During the many gab” sessions in the senior room, our sweet and innocent Mitzi can be heard to exclaim, but I don’t understand, or come on, you kids, now tell me.” Despite the innocence Mitzi manages to do quite well on weekends. Her enthusiasm for sports is only surpassed by her ability in such exhausting sports as skiing, riding, and her favorite, tobogganing. Mitzi’s long blond hair and huge appetite will always be remembered. We arc sure she will Iso a success in the college of her choice. ’46 Junior Dramatic Club ’47, ’48 Dramatic Club ‘47, ’48, ’49 Glee Club ’49 World Affairs ’47 Book Room Committee ’49 Taller ’49 Modern Dance ’46 Junior Glee Club 27
