Jler sunny hair is wondrous fair And wavy in its How, Her eyes are blue, her heart is true, She’s a girl you’d love to know. There are two things we are pretty sure of. First, that Philadelphia lost a lot of its charm when Kitty left, and sec- ondly, that Oxford has been a whole lot nicer since she came. She has won her way into all our hearts with her sweet voice and her gay. happy ways. When- ever there’s any fun going on, you can be sure that Kitty Babb is there. And don't say that big blue eyes, and yellow curls can't talk!

A girl worth while. Put all together—Gav! There isn't enough room here to tell you all the nice things there are about the Sweetest Girl of ’28 . If you know her. you know what we mean; if you don't, you're just out of luck! It seems as though everything that’s likable and lovable had been put together in Gay. If you want a tiling well done, don’t do it yourself—just ask Gay.” We can’t imagine our class without a Gladys, and it will be a long, long time before any of us forget her and all that she has done for us. 8

We take great pleasure in introducing to you the keenest lawyer, best arguer, and jingliest poet of ’28. We’d hate to be the prisoner on trial before Judge Dick- ey! Nevertheless, we’ll give him three cheers for being a “jolly good fellow,” and hope he would let us off, just for “Auld Lang Syne.” HAZEL MARIE EDWARDS “Mickey” Glee Club III, IV; Usher for Junior Prom III; Typing Awards.

The light that lies in women’s eyes Has been my heart’s undoing. “Les” is a gentleman throughout and a class-mate we all admire. He is a very efficient fellow, a fact lie proved by the manner in which he has handled the business end of the Kernel. lie has many interests, the chief one. at present, being a certain red brick house way down on Market Street. That’s all right, Les, we don’t blame you a bit! 10
