1048 Ctje Castellan y05-5MMMMro -3J -2P .m H-!MS-!Q OTMHW« ?- ' !0«?MMMMM an exceptional suntan in that region. Our destination is near at hand, for during the night. Cindad Trujillo, capital of the most romantic and mysterious island of the Caribbean is now upon the horizon. Hours later it seems, on horseback we are slowly riding through the hot, humid vegetation of this vicinity. Pausing to rest we hear voices, familiar in that they are speaking English in this otherwise Spanish- speaking land — upon closer investigation we see a num- ber of girls attired in immaculate white gym suits lis- tening attentively to orders given by an attractive dark- haired girl. Why, she ' s Pat Anthony — and Libby Davis and Dot Baroniak are in the group!! Overwhelmed, we learn that these former classmates have a controlling interest in a basketball team and are spending the sum- mer months here in training, preparing to walk away with national honors. Finally, the overhanging foliage gives way to the clear blue of the sky and the long sweeping veranda of a home completes the picture; but not quite, for standing on the steps is another friend of our Seminary days, An in- Smith, now Mrs. Edward Crouch, Jr., mistress of a huge banana plantation. Inviting us to spend a few days here, with the usual Smith enthusiasm, she ushers us inside, summons her house boy, orders refresh- ments, and naturally our conversation returns to our days at St. Mary ' s and she tells the latest news about several of our classmates whom we have not seen. A letter from Vivian Goblet who will always be Gabe to us, leaves no doubt in our minds that Mr. and Mrs. Mike Wright and the little Mikees have enjoyed their recent purchase of a new super Ford to its fullest extent. We, also, learn via the mail line, that Jo Nicodemus has returned to the fold. For she is teaching Home Economics at S.M.S., but she always manages to find time to accompany her girls to the U.S.O. on Saturday- nights. Still, one former Sem-Fem is unaccounted for — at this moment our hostess turns on the radio and our train of thought is interrupted by a pleasingly resonant voice, a voice we ' ve heard many times before, that of Peg Fowler, now an eminent psychologist and sociolo- gist. Knowing Peg, she must have a new slant on the subject. A brief glance 20 years hence has revealed to us so ' convincingly a fact that no one has ever been able to nullify- — the graduates of St. Mary ' s Female Seminary- have, in accordance with the aspirations of their Alma Mater, led beneficial, and enjoyable lives, enriched so much more by this common link, binding together the lives of each of the graduates of 1948. ft Senior Superlatives Most Popular Mary Jane Shepard Prettiest Patricia Anthony- Best Personality Mary Jane Shepard Most Likely to Succeed Joann Boner Best Sense of Humor Mary Jane Shepard Most Diplomatic Joann Boner Most Studious Gloria Cawood Best Dressed Ann Smith Best Dancer Betty Baldwin Most Vivacious Vivian Gabler Most Glamorous Betty Critzer Most Typical Sem-Fem Mary Jane Shepard Most Athletic Patricia Anthony Contributed Most to School Joann Boner Best Posture Joann Boner Most Loquacious Betty Baldwin Quietest Doris Thompson Best Actress Betty Baldwin Best Figure Patricia Anthony- Most Industrious Barbara Ann Ross Most Musical Mary B.
