THE AGNITA CHARLES W. FRAME Basketball, Captain His sliding very useful may not seem Until tried against an opposing team.

His coolness and skill on the basketball floor are readily recog- nized. Gladly do we look to him as captain of our team. “Charlie,” continue as you have begun, and success will quietly come your way. MARY LOUISE GRAUL Basketball, Glee Cub With many talents is she blessed— In her worthy success will rest.” Tall, graceful, and ambitious—Louise has often merited praise for the manner in which she fills the role of charming hostess and eager student. So pleasing is her personality that even the most exacting of the class finds it’s a simple task to get along with her. In basketball—a sport which holds real fascination for her—she is a most capable player, and has won the rep- utation of being one of our fastest guards. With your characteristics, Louise, we feel that good fortune will be to you no stranger. PATRICIA A. HART Basketball, Glee Club, Science Club Good nature, good breeding, and good sense— A trio with which she’ll ne’er dispense.

She enjoys observing the game at any time, but is most happy when she herself is a participant. In her dreams of the future she visions herself a teacher. How fortunate will be those to whom she will impart knowledge! May Dame Fortune attend you, Patricia. 23

DALEY Basketball, Co-captain Glee Club, Science Club A lass who is a friend to all Comes to the aid of great and small.” A magnetic personality enables Irene to win and retain many faithful friends. Sincere, generous, and sympathetic, she is as much inter- ested in the progress of her classmates as she is in her own. Her deep concern extends itself to their hours of leisure as well as to their hours of duty, and both are made gay by her merry laugh. She is an indispensable member of our basketball team. Irene, our prayers for a successful and bright career attend you. LOUISE J. De PHILIPPIS Glee Club “So active, stirring, all afire, She cannot rest; she cannot tire. Louise joined us in the seventh grade, and since then has captivated all of us by her amiable disposition. She has also proved to be our song bird, for her greatest enjoyment is found in singing or humming the latest melodies. We predict, from her ability to take dictation, that she will be an efficient secretary, and, from her determined manner, that she will be an asset to any business office. Louise, may you always find a song to drive away your cares. ANNE M. Di SANTI Basketball, Glee Club “Her pleasing voice, her sunny smile Will prove to you that life’s worth while. Anne is a firm believer in taking life as it comes—nothing ever disturbs her composure. However, beneath her happy-go-lucky manner there is an admirable seriousness which asserts itself when Anne is confronted with a weighty task. Anne is anticipating enrolling as a nurse in some training school in the fall, and indeed her optimism and kindness will help to nurse many a person back to health. May those you meet in the future cherish your good qualities as we do, Anne. .22
