This wouldn't happen in New York, says Judy as a plate is dropped, and her association with the big city is one of the things we like about her. Judy heads toward the city for peace the way some people seek the country, and although she likes the wilds and swims beautifully fhaving been one of the first to brave the pooll, shop windows are more fascinating to her than pastoral views. We have all envied Judy's ability to proportion her work so that everything is finished on time, in fact, she's one of the few boarders who never seem to have to get up at half-past six for last minute home- work. Not only does Judy finish her work, but she finds time to practice on the piano, too, and last year she won a music scholarship for her fine work. More than all this, we love Judy for herself- efor the loyalty and real friendship she has given us. 'lil lllr-s..b 01 1,-cl 4 67 PA'rTiE PHILLIPS Hfxncnove Ricumomx. Vinuinin Fizfz' Years The mildest manners and the greatest heart. Honorable Mention. '36g Library Tea, '38, Vice- President of Day School, '39, Senior Play, '39, VVe all wonder at June's marvelous capacity of never losing her temper. When the rest of us are practically at a boiling point, June stands in our midst with a cheerful smile which is nearly always present-always smiling and never angryffewhy? Because she always looks for the better side of a person and she bases her opinions on the best she finds. When consideration and thoughtfulness are mentioned, we should place her at the very top of the list, no one could be more thoughtful of her friends. Her slogan seems to be the other fellow first. She always does whatever she can to help the other person, no matter what inconvenience it brings her. She is one of the smartest in the class, and her grades are among the highest. VVith such a fine, dependable character June is bound to do every- thing as well and pleasantly after she leaves us as she has done here.

Honor Role, '36, '37: Integrity Committee, '375 Qunir, '38, Honorable Mention, '38g Senior Play. '39, Chairman of Speech Committee, '39g League lloard KEX-Ofliciul, '39. Anne joined us in the ninth grade, and ever since has heen one of our most admired classmates. Her graceful prettiness and intelligence are Anne's most envied qualities, but certainly her staunch loyalty and sweetness are to he greatly desired also. Her soft voice is never obtrusive, and her speech is sure to be correct as she is Speech Chairman this year. One of Nancy's most endearing characteristics is the innate modesty with which she regards herself and her achievements. These accomplishments are certainly not trivial, and she has not failed to obtain a scholastic honor in any of the four years she has been here. For the past two years she has repre- sented, with distinction, St. Catherine's in the an- nual French Tournament. Nancy is one of those lucky people who have never had to read How lo Win Friends and Influence People: her own friendly attitude and graeiousness have arranged that for her. FRANCES CAROXLYN ciItEGG MEMPHIS, TENNESSEE Om' Yrar A merry heart doeth good like a medicine. Senior Play, '39, Choir, '39, Dramatic Club, '39, Greggie appeared upon the scene at St. Cath- erine's for the First time this year, but anyone would have thought she had been here for years, for she immediately entered into the spirit of things and gave us unfailingly helpful suggestions. She is most noted for taking the leading role in our Senior Play, Remember :ha Day, which she played with the ease and ability of a well schooled actress. Much can be said about her sense of humor, hut it will suffice to say that, if you ever hear shrieks of laughter anywhere at anytime, you may be almost certain that Gregg is somewhere around. When you feel in the depths of despair, there is no better remedy than one of Creggie's witty remarks. Her wit doesn't stop with humor, for she really shines in class recitations! VVe know her brains will carry her far, and our love and hest wishes go with her,

W s W' x ,fri K rf 1 Xi! is: 1 NX, f' lx! 1 If M MARGARET LEARNED HOLMES Auousm, GEORGIA L Om' and u Half Years X For beauty lives with kindness. n Choir, '39g Senior Play, '39g Dramatic Club, '39g Assistant Head of Class Parties, '39, Georgia first came to us as Margaret, but her name soon switched over to that of her native state, although she had never been called that before. VVherever Georgia may be, she is always welcomed, for it's a joy to be around her, because her cheery smile, much envied southern drawl, and hospitality put us at complete ease. It is nice to tell Georgia your problems because she seems to have the same ones. After a good dis- cussion with her, you don't feel so bad, knowing someone else is in the identical predicament. What 'fun it will be to look back and remember the mar- velous father Georgia portrayed in our play! All through life we are confident that this southern miss will do everything she undertakes as a neat job. NORVELL Louisa HENLEY RxCHMoNn, VIRGINIA Five Years The joy of youth and health her eyes displayedf, Integrity Committee, '36: Library Tea, '38: Quair '38g Senior Play, H395 Board of Publications, '39. Ever since the eighth grade, when a rather shy girl with lovely blue eyes came into our midst, Norvell has been a valuable and essential person in our class, Needless to say, Norvell has overcome her shyness, and now her natural sincerity and cheerfulness have placed her firmly in our hearts as a friend. She obligingly listens to our tales of woe and never makes us feel that our troubles are too insignificant to be noticed. This year her interest and support on the Board of Publications has been Z1 big help to the Editors. Her zeal and enthusiasm are real contributions. She is not only pretty, but she is smart and often we wish that we had the boundless store of ideas that she has for English compositions. St. C'atherine's will certainly miss Norvell, but we feel sure that no matter what she does, St. Catherine's will have rea- son to be proud of her.
