SUSAN WEST Head of Barclay House Lives there a man ivith soul so dead, JFho has not turned his head and said, ' NOT BAD ' . Sue was elected Editor-in-chief of the 1951 issue of the Echoes and has done a tremendous job. She is one of this year ' s Prefects, and won a star for her work in games. She plans to desert Montreal next year and gladden the hearts of all males WEST of the Rockies when she goes to the University of B.C. SENIOR SIXTH (;1SELA VON EICKEN Barclay House She ' s as beautiful as the hills, hut not quite so green. (iay came as a new girl to take her Senior iVlatri ' . and is the envy of us all because of her free afternoons. The star of the school Christmas Carol Pageant, Trafalgar will remember Gay for her wonderfid singing voice, and those sophisticated hair-do ' s. PARTIAL SENIOR ANNE BERRY Ross House came, I saw, and I ' m still trying to conquer. Anne made a belated entrance to Traf. this year, bul everyone was glad to see her back. She was a competent and dependable Prefect, and was a great help in arran- gements for the dance. She was also elected Form Magazine Representative. She was chief hymn player — in fact, whenever a piano player was needed, Berry certainly filled the bill. Rumour has it that she has a very promising future in store? (Jood luck. Berry! [20]

SUSAN RACEY Head of Fairley House At first you think she ' s quite demure, Then afterwards you ' re not so sure. In spite of her petiteness Racey was one of the more versatile seniors. This is illustrated by the fact that she was a Prefect, Head of her House, Junior Councillor, Class Gym Captain, and ticket-seller for the dance. Her week-ends were full and exciting. WOW! PRISCILLA SARGENT Cumming House You gotta do it sometime, so you might as well do it now. Friscilla ' s love was the exciting outdoor life of sailing and mountain-climbing, but during the school months she led a very different one — that of our Presi dent one term, and Vice-president the next. She always put the class concerns first, and took a great deal of interest in her studies. We all wish her luck at Bates next year. SHIRLEY STOCK Gumming House Worry kills more people than work. Shirley was a very pleasant and friendly addition to our form last year. She never let her men get cold feet, either. In the morning, when we ' d be all scrambling around, she ' d be calmly clicking her needles, while do ens of flashy socks flowed from beneath. GRETA STRAESSLE Gumming House Neither a borrower nor a lender be — the things I borrow belong to me. (irela, our Form Treasurer, had the outstanding persona- litv. Her humour and quick wit made her popular, both in classes and out. Sports were her strong point; she played on the first basketball team, was on the ski team, ;in(l was our (ianies Lieutenant. [19J
