Margaret Rita Fallon, St. Saviour Academy : Margaret plays a strange and foreign rhythm, alien to us, yet certainly attractive. The things which worry or frighten us in their petty fashion Margaret simply ignores. For her they bear no real significance. We like the way she enters a room, we like the Macy anecdotes, we have tried to imitate the unfamiliar quality of her voice. There can be no pattern for her, except one of her own making, for she is in all things an individual, and that by right and wise choice. Because of her good bearing she was chosen to serve as usher at Baccalaureate and Commencement and as a member of the Glee Club Committee in her Senior year. Genevieve Ann Farrell, Bishop McDonnell Memorial High School: Gen is one of the few women who have known, perhaps instinctively, that there is a beauty in the natural, in the out-ward going that always must triumph over the artificial. Feminine artifice is as alien to Gen, as malice or uncharity or unkindness must ever be. Yet she is womanly — and all the good and precious things this term connotes. During her Senior year she served as President of the newly founded Child Study Club and launched this group upon a most successful path. Helen V. Finnin, St. Agnes Academy: Helen very literally handles things well, herself, the fashion of her lovely hair, the children over whom she is in charge — even to the very equipment of the Nursery School, she lends a certain air of niceness, a cer- tain half glamorous importance. We have grown accustomed to seeing her in her blue smock, with the sun on her auburn hair, standing very quietly among a crowd of five- year-old outdoor enthusiasts and looking terribly happy in her quiet fashion. She was President of the Swimming Club in her final year. Katherine Frances Foley, St. Francis Xavier Academy: Kay, despite her size, thinks that she ' ll be able to manage a kindergarten class very nicely — and we don ' t doubt it at all after seeing the splendid work she has accomplished on various com- mittees during her time at College. She was Treasurer of the Religion Committee in he r Junior year, a position of no little responsibility. Her versatility, her wit, her sin- cerity and essential simplicity have endeared her to us. 23
