ANNA MARIE ALLEN Because of her unaffected simplicity our next star has soared high in our celestial ranks. Her roles are usually of the comedy type, because Anna Marie has a natural gift for humor. ln her portrayal of Elsa in the Senior play, she was quiclc to capture the hearts of her audience. Definitely the life of any party, she has just enough of the Irish wit to malce her devilish, but she has proved that she can talce as well as give. ul-listory dates are im- possible to memorize, says Anna, 'tand there just isn't any sense in all this discussion about 'Manifest Destiny. If you should see her when she's a trifle flushed and all starry-eyd, she has probably just heard Franlc Sinatra sing l'll Remember April.

' I CONN IE VIOLA YACOVONE Another star was added to our illustrious cast in our Junior year when this diligent performer made her entrance. As an ardent sports' enthusiast, she can be found tracking down an eight pointer any crisp fall morning. Along with this invigorating habit, she amuses herself by talcing potshots at the target and hitting the bull's eye often enough to win several prizes. Displaying her patriotism, she put in several hours of duty spotting planes, and we expect to see her floating slcyward in her own helicopter any day now, f-lere she is, that versatile lady of the airfplanesl '- Connie Yacovone. 511351
