Class Will With caffeine’s eye-opener and soc's long toil, Marion will be burning Bo’s midnight oil. Dusty will have troubles galore next year; She’ll have Ev’s psychosomatic cow fear. Cathy more often will straddle a horse, For she'll inherit Gail's Levi source. Mary Mills for walking will be fated; In Johnnie’s shoes she will be well gaited. Bouts with the pincurl were Anne's Waterloo; Now she'll have Jill's hair and peroxide, too! Dome's appetite for Beta Theta Pi Will be left next year for Jeannie to try. Margie's loud cries inducing silence She'll give to Jay to curb her violence. A fifth for walking, Nancy's constant plea, Is Lennie’s to collect a safari. Smiley leaves her diets, et al. to Hope; If only weight would wash away with soap! Nicky will have long johns dangling astray Since they’re Johnnie's she’s wearing till next May. A be-muscled Beth would be quite a sight--Hink's biceps she'll flex morning, noon, and night. Andy assumes Yostie’s English class seat; To her, this will be a boresome repeat. Lynne leaves Robin a woodie potion; That juniper brew will put her in motion! Cacci leaves the local gentry and all that; Her men (with reservations) go to Pat. Nancy leaves Earl Hummel's tunes for dancing To Lois for her future romancing. Lynn leaves her maps of western Pa. For Linda when she goes back that way. Jerry, as soon as Miss Bowlby moves out, You have the smoker for lounging about. Rene, don't panic, rage, or disparage--Lynn leaves you her social baby carriage. Kathy McCabe is due for a change. For Jill's quiet way to her will be strange. Monk’s bike used to run on Wheaties and pep. But with Cacci's duals it will really step. Betsy leaves Ursinus for Kitty's collection Making, of course, just one exception! Zimmy's Sunday pastime of beagling and tea Are for Skipper when she has a week-end free. Rusty will take her dates from N. A.C. To the red room to watch Betsy's TV. For Barb who writes hither, thither and yon Is Hink's paper which isn't written upon. Marilyn's duty crew will be more alive When it gains the speed of Jackson's five. Jane will have to pigtail her lengthy hair; She'll find, with Zimmy’s, a lot more there. Robbie’s wealth of botany specimens Will go under Susie’s microscope lens. Hirtle's Pepsi business and all its woe Next year to Nancy Reynolds will go. We would like to express our appreciation to Mary Koehler for her unfailing patience in helping us to learn the many practical aspects of our studies. Without her cheerful guidance, much which we enjoyed would have been work. We would also like to mention Margie Moss, Barbara Stimson, Thayer Whiting, Ruth Markowe, and Judy Sorg (now Denelsbeck) who shared many happy days with us during our freshman year. 18

Next year these trees will top the forest and find a new planting beneath them. We hope that in the years to come they will remember the good friends made, the sad times shared, and the feeling of comradeship by which they helped to make our senior year such a happy one.

May Day The May Fair transformed the Green Garden into a gay Elizabethan fair grounds, complete with booths of cakes and cookies under the wisteria vines, farm animals bedecked with ribbons and flowers, and a craning audience of friends and relatives. Helene Zimmerman followed the stately procession of her court through the throngs of cheering people to the throne where she was crowned Queen of the May. Then the royal entourage settled down in their places to enjoy the festivities. A company of players made their entrances and exits to the poetic lines of the Loch-invar tale recited by narrator Robbie Sayers. Then a group of baliadiers entertained the Queen, the court, and the audience with their rendition of several Elizabethan ballads. A cheerful band of folk dancers in petticoated skirts and knee britches whirled in after the singers and added to the colorful presentation. Finally the prize winning animals of the fair were paraded before the Queen and the audience to conclude the festivities. Despite the threatening weather spirits were not dampened and the entertainers and audience alike enjoyed visiting in the gardens and partaking in refreshments on the terrace before they dispersed to their homes. 33
