Jane Cllin Cbin Age cannot wither her nor custom stale her in finite variety”—Shakespeare Whcc-crash, and then it happened,” rages Ebin as she stomps into the Senior Room. “I quit!” After words of sympathy from fellow disappointees, Jane is consoled and the experience of the night, or class before is forgotten. Blond hair and a tanned face after a Florida vacation, distinguish her from the rest of the pale-faced rabble. St. Louis was included in her itinerary during the past annum and word has it that Florida isn’t the only place the sun shines each vacation. Janie’s faithful work on the TATLER is to be commended, for whenever an editor is in dire need of a typist, only three little words arc necessary. “Ebin, type this! and she willingly obliges. Admittedly, Jane has one of the most beautiful wardrobes of any senior, her eye for fashion being the reason for her choice of career. How about designing a few originals for us, Janie?” Activities Editor.

Beatrice Elizabeth Ebvoxak If it weren’t for the efforts of this talented girl, our class would have been completely incapable of even attempting to produce such colossal extravaganzas as those given for the OKI Chris' Party for the New. Besides her creative ability and imagination, Betts’ musical talent has been behind our class’ newly discovered penchant toward harmonious singing. Betts did an admirable job in her '54 Christmas Program solo anil her part in the Blake play m her Junior year. Betts’ never diminishing enthusiasm has led her to take part in many extra-curricular activities, and to become known as one of the more energetic members of the senior class. 1 his energy has but one shortcoming; it remains virtually dormant until the first recess. As a nearly catastrophic consequence, Betts arrives daily just under the wire—at 8:24 54 A M. However, this will not make a difference, for her varied abilities will be her future success. ☆ Senior Editor, TATLER 12; TATLER 10. 11. 12; NORTHROP NOTES 11. 12: Lake Forest Conference 11; Drama Club, 10, 11, 12; Choir 11, 12; Class Basketball. 19

c4nne Mhight Qillette “Thou crcniwcst the year with thy good ness.”—Psalm 65:11 In Anne we probably have the epitome of the possible success of a Northrop senior. She is one of the amazing few who have held nearly every position that Northrop otters. And yet, in spite of all this activity, Gillette still finds the spirit and strength to remain cheerful and to laugh at our attempted funnies. This is no wonder, for she has become very well known since eighth grade, for her qualities of friendliness and leadership. Proof of these characteristics was given a year ago, when she was elected President of the Northrop League, and became the recipient of the Nellie Atwater Friendliness Award. A mainstay on every varsity team, Gillette has demonstrated her athletic prowess. Annie’s marks, despite her fervent denials, are invariably first honor-roll level. In addition to these outstanding qualities, her helpfulness, poise and cheery disposition have definitely labeled Annie One of the Best.” ☆ League President 12; League Co-Treasurer 11; I-caguc Secretary 10; Trustees’ Award Committee 10, 11; Nellie Atwater Award 11; Class President 9; Public Relations 11; Athletics 10; Choir 9, 10, 11, 12; Class Hockey 9, 10, 11, 12; Varsity Hockey 9, 10, 11, 12; Class Basketball 9. 10. 11; Varsity Basketball 9, 10, 11; Varsity Volleyball 10, 11, 12. 21
