Mary Louise Follmar, Academy of St. Joseph, Brentwood: Mimi is fashioned to a rare and lovely and almost forgotten pattern. Her slow easy way of speaking, her manner of confusion when something has just gone on which she does not understand, her perfectly candid approach — are only some of the reasons that we shall not soon forget that we have known her. Her essential good breeding is at once apparent as those who have worked with her on the committees for Junior Week and the Senior Prom will testify. Eileen Mary Gaffney, Bishop McDonnell Memorial: There are few of us who have not known Eileen ' s kindness and unselfish offers of assistance when we needed them most. She is tall and slender with a gamin-like face, strangely aware, strangely, almost painfully alive to every passing impression. As a Junior she served as an Alumnae Week Chairman, and to all appearances enjoyed herself with a thoroughness characteristic. We remember her during the first try-outs for the Night of January Sixteenth, finding our strained, tight little nervousness amusing, and by her own inimi- cable humor restoring us to a semblance of sanity. Eileen Gallagher, Bishop McDonnell Memorial: If there were a test to determine the job of most difficulty, where anything is liable to happen and usually does, and where things are only possible of accomplishment in sudden, feverish bursts of activity, the presidency of Dramatics would probably be chosen by unanimous consent. But because Eileen isn ' t easily frightened, has a healthy sense of humor and a wholesome appreciation of the dififerences which exist among personalities — she has managed this job with distinctive success. Lilly M. Gallo, Girls ' High School: II y a une Jitterbug par excellence — which art combines rather uniquely with her very marked scholastic ability. She is small with a great weight of dark hair and a way of wearing clothes. Lilly worries a great deal that what she is accomplishing will not meet the high standard she has set for herself. Beneath the excitement, and the wild activity, there is an essential core of clear think- ing and basic strength. 24
