JANE BLISS STRYKER JOSEPHINE TRUSCOTT lt's unfair. Our little crusader for justice is on the iob again. For Janie is a true fighter not only in the class room, but on the hockey field and basketball courts as well. Her vitality, spirit and cheer-leading have helped spur us on to many a victory. What would Penpushers do without Janie's peppy dancing to Glenn Miller, and her worldly tales of love? Janie is a true friend and is greatly admired for her frankness and sincerity. '41. '42 f '41, '42 5 ' '41 '42 l Cheer Leader, '41 , '42 Josie's skill with a basketball, hockey stick and baseball have made her a valuable addition to our teams. She has always been active in dramatics and her work in the operetta has been especially laudable. Even though she may often be seen in the throes of a fit of giggles, Jo is a conscientious worker in everything she does, and an interested and cooperative helper in all school affairs. We all feel certain that she will be as great an asset to college as she has been to Park. '41 55.1 ff '41 i C'-:UU '42 Captain, '42 K, '41, '42 f 5 Captain, '42 16

GLORIA RIEF RUTH SETEL Gloria's infectious giggle and sardonic remarks have added much to the merriment of many a group discussion and class toot. Although Gloria has only been with us one year, her amiable disposition, her friendliness, and her willingness to help, have made her a real part of the class. Recognition of her capability was shown when the Seniors elected her as secretary of the graduating class. Gloria plans to attend a junior college next year. Secretary Senior Class -. ' '- I' Q V Wi? Ruthie has always been the girl with her feet on the ground. Her personality is characterized by her sweet and friendly manner and everything that Rufus does, she does well and modestly. As secretary of Pen- pushers, Inc. she has spurred many a member on to real literary accomplishments, besides contributing much to the club by her own individual style of writing. Ruthie adds much to the discussions of this club and to those of the Senior class, because she is earnestly sincere and because she has the courage of her convictions. Her plans for college are uncertain but we wish her luck wherever she goes. C500 gf i '41 Q Secretary, '42 '41, '42 15

BETTY VANDERBILT Our operettas for the past two years have been greatly enhanced by the excellent work of Van. Not only has she had a principal part in the acting, but she has contributed a great deal both to organizing the pro- duction and assisting in making the costumes. Bet is extremely clever when it comes to the domestic and cre- ative arts. After a winter at modeling school, Betty has proved her worth by modeling at some of our best de- partment stores. Next year she plans to take a secre- tarial course at the Y.W.C.A.
