Wise-Acres Anna Elaine Condit “Elaine” She has a gift which can’t be bought; I mean, of course, her happy thought. She’s never tearful, never sad; We’ve yet to hear Elaine get mad. We’ve all kidded Elaine about her “happy thoughts,” but it’s really because we’re envious of her good nature and enthusiastic philosophy of life. Geraniums Smiles Lehigh Ping Pong Colours Dark eyes Jeanne Dorsey “Tommy” Tommy fusses with solutions, Concentrations and dilutions. The reason back of all this toil Is that she won’t grow things in soil. Besides all her school activities Tommy finds time to attend concerts and lectures. Her greatest asset is her grand sense of humour, and her response and appreciation of our jokes. Botany Nail polish Food Laughs Lectures Symphonies 15

Nineteen-forty- Mary Elizabeth Avery Betty” Little Betty loves her lawns Upon each blade of grass she fawns, Feeds them NPK and ground up Lime And watches o'er them all the time. Betty’s perennial good humour and sportsmanship have made her a person we are not likely to forget. She has done splendid work as manager of costumes for our various plays, which in our estimation deserves credit, as credit is due. Vines Lawns Knick-knacks Poetry Wooly dogs Sunny smile Marjorie Tatnall Carmichael Mike” It really is no false-alarm That Mike is going to own a farm; We know it’s going to be a date With able help from her “Penn State. Mike possesses the rare quality of combining a good time with good work. You can always depend on her to see a job through, whether it’s her vegetables major, the yearbook, or plans for fun.

Nineteen-forty' June Howland Eldridge “June” June will fuss and June will fume, If dust dares come into her room; And so the dust again won’t fall, She even cleans the whole darn hall. June is the “lady” of the class. Lavender and old lace best seem to describe her personality. Her neatness and graciousness have set an example for us all. Dust-pan Haii- Rosy cheeks Letters Flowers Bows Ethel Victoria Emery “Vick” Vicki runs ’round in a daze, Her mind is covered with a haze; It boils down to simple facts, What Vicki needs, is to relax. Vick is our Canadian lass. Although she may appear to be in a dither, we all know she has a very active and rational mind. Her perceptibility and foresight are a source of envy to all of us.
