BEATRICE rUILL Full of enthusiasm Always game. A broad grin greeted the world on September 25th, 1913. This appeared on the chubby face of Beatrice Yuill, ahas Bud. After residing at Bracebridge for three months, Bud moved bag and bag- gage to Sudbury where she graduated from pubHc school. For two years Bud deUghted the students of the Guelph Col- legiate with her high spirits and her chuckles. However, the bright prospects of a future at O.L.C. soon won Bud to our side, where she has remained for the past three years; and we would keep her longer only Bud has a yearning for travel. Bud ' s first year at O.L.C. was a splen- did beginning, for she was put on the second basketball team. When she re- turned the following Autumn she was elected Secretary of the Athletic Asso- ciation and honoured the first basketball team by playing forward. Her third year proved even more suc- cessful, for Bud was elected President of the Athletic Association, and she also earned the much coveted Chevron. As yet Bud is undecided concerning her future plans, but whatever they may be O.L.C. wishes her the very best of luck! Pet Saying — You nit. Hobby — W- riting letters. Page Twenty-five

On March the 4th, 1913, a cold wind welcomed Merle ' s arrival. She attended the John Fisher Public School, Toronto, and the North Toronto Collegiate, where she ama2;ed everyone by her athletic abil- ity. In 1928 Merle entered O.L.C., mak- ing one of that snappy Medium Class. This year she was vice-president of the Junior Class, but surprised us by becom- ing a successful Senior. Merle ' s achievements in Athletics have been many. During her first year she was guard on our first basketball team. For three years she kept her place with sus- cess, and this year was presented with the O.L.C. chevron. On field day Merle came off with flying colours, breaking the broad jump record and gaining the cup for ath- letics. The following week Merle showed her ability in swimming by winning the Gold Medal. As for her future we are a little ha2,y, but Merle rather thinks she will take her arts course at Varsity and finish with two years at Margaret Eaton. Just heaps of luck, Merle. Hobby — Being a graceful butterfly. Expression — Oh, blessed bed. MART McMULLEH As virtuous as fair. The annals of O.L.C. will refer many times to the name of one, Mary McMul- len, for since she came to us from Ed- monton in 1927, Mary has filled a large place in the hfe of the school. Swim- ming, Basketball, Dramatics, have taken her attention. She has been an enthus- iastic student and occupied with many so- cial activities. We should like to pause, by the way, and chronicle some of the parts Mary has played: — a stately Portia ; Alma Ma- ter ; Jean Valjean ; and, as a climax, our charming May Queen. Mary has not as yet decided on her future plans, but we feel sure that what- ever she undertakes she will give her best and will bring honour to her Alma Mater! Favourite Expression — Oh dear! — Hobby — Teaching comp. Iff Page Twenty-four

Honorary President ' ' Miss Maxwell Class Teacher - ' Mrs. Adams President ' ' Dorothy Bass Vice-President ' ' Isobel Robertson Secretary - ' ' Hana Fukuda Treasurer ' - Marjorie Fetterly Mentor tmt The light goes out! A sudden silence prevails! The curtain rises and the first notes of the opening chorus float out into the ears of the expectant audience. What is this we see? A group of charming girls in pretty greens, yellows and mauves, swaying with the music, their voices lifted in a lilting refrain; — Irish skies are smiling with a lovely hue, Irish lakes reflect the light and sparkle to you — The play is on! The Senior Stunt this year was an Irish Operetta Bits of Blarney. A charm- ing little story about a girl named Peggy, played by Dorothy Givins, taking all ihe boys away from the other girls, but caring only herself for one. And, of course, that one, Patrick by name, played by Beatrice Yuill, caring equally for her and being a little dubious about the chances for himself. Peggy, however, a little tired of this, concocts a plan with the aid of Mike O ' Noole, played by Flora McDonald, an old bachelor and the comic character in the play. She tells them all that she must go home, but her brother is coming to stay with her aunt and makes them all promise to be nice to him. On the other hand, Patrick also gets together with Mike and poses as his niece, Marjorie. Peggy then arrives in the guise of her brother and cures the boys of their love sickness, making them return to the other girls. But fear strikes her heart, and she quickly changes back to herself, meets Patrick, also again himself, and the story ends happily with a rollicking song by the entire cast. The curtain falls to the accompaniment of thunderous applause, then rises again on an entirely different scene. This time the girls stand in the shape of a V holding yellow, green and mauve streamers, leading to a large stand with the inscription S ' 31. The Senior song is sung to the tune of The Road to Man- dalay. (3nt diupmtst Wxnnn Thanks to our little friend Hana Fukuda, the Senior Class busied themselves one evening with preparing and partaking of a most novel dinner. The food was cooked in Japanese style and, most interesting of all, was eaten with chopsticks. At first it didn ' t seem as though we ' d get very much to eat, but in due time the foreign cus- tom somewhat rudely mastered, we succeeded in having a most sumptuous and appe- tizing meal.
