CGhe, 1 933 l,-l.. Qnnunciata JOHN NIERIL Vidar Introducing John Victor: It is rumored that, like Caesar, he has great ambitionsg but he will not honor our poor unworthy ears by permitting us to ulisten in. Whether or not we come into this world trail- ing clouds of glory we cannot say, but we do know that Victor has set for himself high ideals which he will not fail to attain. l JAMES O'CONNELL 1im': Behold! the admirable possesser of a cheerful heart and a sunny countenance. ln Virgil his fluent trans- lations and brilliant recitations arouse admiration and suspicion. As toastmaster and weaver of rhyme he has no peer in our group. Smile on, jim , the world needs your cheer. MARIAN SHIRE Cookiv One is led to think that Marian is the quiet, serious type, but to hear her play the piano and see her dance, changes the idea. Through her school years Cookie has endeared herself to her classmates with her fine disposition and infectious laugh. We wish Cookie,' all the luck in the world. I MARGUERITE STOPPER Tinian This dark haired lass with laughing brown eyes and winning smile is known to all her classmates as Tinka. Her popularity is proven by the fact that she was unanimously chosen for the captainship of the girls' basketball team. Tinka has always been a loyal classmate, and we feel sure that she will make a success in whatever walk of life she may choose. Twenty sewn

'Fha 1933 Ti...-.. .Qnnunczata HELEN MCLAUGHLIN Kale This tall, dignified girl has won the highest respect and admiration of her classmates. Helen has a re- ticent demeanor which completely conceals the friendly disposition we know is hers. We expect this pretty lass to achieve much in the world, for her ambitions are high, but not beyond her capabilities. ANNA MCGONNELL Annie Here is another member of ,33 who carries herself with all the dignity of a senior. She is a nonchalant and unexcitable person, and never gets disturbed or ruffled when called upon to recite her lessonsg but she blushes beautifully on these occasions. Best of luck Anna, and don't forget your old friends in years to come. May success and happiness attend you, Helen. ELEANOR MCNAMEE Maru This lady is the original Pink of perfection. We call her Mac . She possesses one of those happy- go-lucky dispositions, wending her way through life without a care or worry. Mac intends to devote her time to nursing, and with her as ministering angel, who could fail to recover? Let's hear from A ' you Mac for we will always be interested. Q LOUISE MCMUNN Mirleic,' Louise believes in the poet who said Laugh and the world laughs with you . Her ready smile and merry laugh bear evidence of the fact. Mickie displayed her fine qualities as an actress in her char- acterization of Peggy in our senior class play Bits of Blarney . We are not aware of the profession Louise intends to pursue, but we assure her of our best wishes for the future. I1 Twrnly-six
