JEAH TAYLOR Love, sweetness, goodness, in her person smiles. Margaret Jean Taylor was born in Guelph on July 26, 1916. In 1935 she came to O.L.C. from the Gait Collegiate. Her sunny smile has endeared her to all who have known her. A tribute to her happy ways was bestowed upon her, when she was elected Queen of the May in 1936. Our friendly Jean proved a capable helper during her last year of commercial study, when she served as Miss Willson ' s assist- ant, and in her Junior year she was secre- tary-treasurer of the Honour club. She has proved to be a good sport, as well, play- ing on the first basketball team and the badminton team, winning O.L.C. letters on two field days, and her bronze medal in life-saving. This year Jean was honoured by being elected the holder of the Strath- cona shield. She is one of the few students in O.L.C. ' s history to be both May queen and Strathcona student. Hobby — Knitting. Favourite Expression — Oh, do you real ' ly think so? FRAHCES EXID TODD Women arc meant to be loved, not understood. Frances has lived most of her life in Cobalt, to which she retired a year after her birth in Toronto, August 14, 1919. She attended both public and high school there, hut came to us for her final year. Fran entered into all the extra-curriculum activities with great gusto — remember her as the Princess in the Senior play? What was it she did with her hands, anyway? Her academic standard has been exception- ally high and she succeeded in obtaining her Honour matric. and many prizes as well. Her prime interest is our Year Book of which she is editor-in-chief. Next year Fran leaves us to enter Varsity. We know she will realize the same outstanding success there that she has here, for she shares with Caesar that Veni, vidi, vici motto. Hobby — Sampling lipsticks. Favourite Expression — Wei I don ' t know about that. now — - Page Fifteen

LOUISE MARSHALL A certain soothing charm, a vital grace, That breathes of the eternal womanly. Louise, born in Edmonton, June 30, 1918, is indeed a daughter of the prairies, in that clean wholesome sport is her main interest in life — thus far. Coming to O.L.C. in the fall of ' 35, Lx)uise soon proved herself unbeatable in badminton. Not only in badminton has she been an outstanding participant, but also in tennis, basketball, riding and swimming. It was inevitable with these accomplishments that Louise would be Athletic president, which office she has filled admirably. Finally, to top her years here Louise was elected our May Queen of ' 37. Next year Louise intends to enter University or Margaret Eaton. Let us wish her the best of everything. Hobby — Badminton, etc. Favourite Expression — Hy, punk! ]EAXi POLLARD Music hath charms, but the musician hath more. Jean, familiarly known to us as Polly, was born in Newdale, Manitoba, on April 15, 1916, but she attended public and high school in Hamilton where she now lives. In 1936 she came to O.L.C. to study for her A.T.C.M. and to finish her senior ma- trie. As a side interest Polly took a course in sewing. During the year she was elected vice ' president of the Honour club and en ' tered into every sport. Polly was elected one of the May Queen ' s councillors. Her plans for next year are indefinite but we all know she will meet with success where- ever she goes. Hobby — Anything but horses. Favourite Expression — Now Pop, it ' s this way. MARCIA SCOOH A daughter of the gods, divinely tall and ■most divinely fair. Marcia made her first bow to her fond parents in Toronto, on January 19, 1920. She dabbled in academic work at various schools, among them Loretto Abbey be- fore coming to O.L.C. in 1933. In 1935 she decided to be a woman with a business career. Besides the signal honour of being a Senior, Marcia is also Chairman of the Commercial Class. In keeping with the Coronation season, Marty was the Queen in the Senior Stunt The Wood ' cutter and between the enchanting use of her eyebrows and her diet of bread, the audience was kept in a gay mood. She has aspirations towards a secretarial posi ' tion next year, but if an opportunity is not offered, she will become a dress designer in ten easy lessons. To Scoonie, we wish the best of success in either field. Hobby — Keeping her scrap book, and . . ! Favourite Expression — Well, waddayuh know! ! !

Mentor (tluii 0iUttti Honorary President Class Teacher President Vice-President Secretary ' Treasurer Miss A. A. Maxwell Miss E. McNaught Betty Stephens Bernadette Henderson Catharine Campbell iit}t Mentor Banre Friday, February 19, was the date on which many hearts throbbed and cheeks blushed; for the Seniors were enjoying themselves to their utmost at the Annual Senior ' ' At Home. After we had passed through the receiving line of Miss Maxwell, Dr. and Mrs. Carscallen, Miss McNaught, Senior Class Teacher, and Betty Stephens, Class President, our attention was attracted by the decorations of blue and blue streamers, clusters of multi-coloured balloons, and coronation murals designed by the Art Department, all of which completely transformed the gym. The novelty dances rendered by the splendid seven piece orchestra enabled strangers to become friends. Members of the Junior Class bore the burden of good things to eat as we assembled in the Common Room and beautiful Main Hall. Onc ' thirty came all too soon, but we were left with the happiest memories of one of the most enjoyable occasions of the year. Senior ©inttpr On Friday evening, April 9, the Senior Dinner was held in a coronation atmosphere. Two gold crowns on a black and red background were the main features of the decorating scheme and this was carried out on the Senior table in baskets of the coro ' nation colours, blue, red and gold, which are also the Senior colours of the year. This theme was continued in the gold crowns that were the place cards, and in the colours on the menu-programme. The tables of the other classes were decorated with their own colours. The food was excellent and the humorous comments on the menus provided many laughs. The programme woven in through the banquet consisted of toasts and responses interspersed with class songs and even yells. An O.L.C. sterling silver coffee spoon was presented to each of the Seniors by the Junior class. Dr. Carscallen as toastmaster opened with a short address after which a toast was proposed to the King. The toasts which followed were unusually good and showed a great deal of thought and consideration.
