emoriam MISS Ienme B Austin On February 16, 1952, Miss Iennie B. Austin, a member of the English Department, passed away. A native of Missouri, Miss Austin had been on the faculty of South Shore since the school opened in 1940. Because of her intense interest in art, Miss Austin came to Chicago originally to study at the Art Institute. She changed her plans, however, and obtained her Master's degree at the University of Chicago. As sponsor of the Iune 1952 Class and Tide Literary Staff, she was the guiding hand that helped many students chart a straight course. Her character and personality will ever remain an inspiration to all those who knew her and worked with her. 16
