CLARA ELIZABETH BAKER 2315 Argonne Road Portsmouth, Ohio r ' T ibby, it ' s time to get up. Time elapses. Libby, it ' s 6:30!! Later: Libby, aren ' t you going on duty today? About ten minuter later Libby sticks her head out from under the covers and pulls her feet under, (why her feet never freeze remains a deep, dark mystery,) and by seven o ' clock she ' s very much awake, good for at least sixteen hours or easily more. Libby ' s a god sport, a whiz of a tennis player and much in demand at the telephone and in the Rec Hut. Everyone is pretty well satisfied with her; no alterations necessary for general popu- larity. VIRGINIA CAMERON No. 105, Beaumont Apartments 1300 Sacramento Street San Francisco, California ' V 1lN CAMERON, you have a callar in the Rec Hut. Doesn ' t that sound familiar? Is there anyone who has forgotten the fate of Alcibiades, the gold-fish, — the big one that had to stand on his head to turn around in his bowl and who swam nightly in our bathtub? That probie party of Gin and Booze ' s that had an invitation and menu in strictly scientific and professional terms! Booze has put away all such childish things and now it ' s the Georgetown miniature that has the floor. She ' s a good sport and a peach to work with. Co-operation — and HOW! Twenty-six

RACHEL B. ABRAHAM 182 Park Street Canandaigua, New York TO ay is a good scout, quite versatile too; she ' ll talk about the newest book or go out and play tennis with you. She ' ll even learn to swim — . By the way, Ray, isn ' t it time to reveal the fate of the murdered goldfish; What became of the magic box over in Quart- ers Seven that held everything from soup to nuts? (She could make herself anything from a bathing suit to an evening gown out of its contents.) Ray doesn ' t miss anything, if possible. Re- member the time she heard someone say Fleet ' s In and she immediately wanted to know if it were at the Navy Yard or the Seventh Street Wharves, and was quite disillusioned to find it was at the Earle! DELLA A. AUSTIN 215 Thirty-fifth Street Newport News, Virginia T asses from Newport News! I can see her with J a crate of oranges, a big knife, an electric orange squeezer and five empty quart bottles. Pain, ain ' t it? She will be quite an asset to this apartment we ' re going to have, for what would we do with- out Paul around occasionally to move the piano, etc.? Lasses likes purple, or does she? Just what does one do when one gets two rub- ber gloves apparently for the same hand, and the caduces is worn on the left side, really! Strangest of all, she ' s finishing up with six good uniforms! Girls, imagine it! If the rest of us had one decent one we would hoard it and wear it on Class Day. Twenty-five

ELIZABETH COCKRELL 1006 South Pittsburgh Street Connellsville, Pennsylvania ITT ave you a little Sis in your home to play your Vic for you when you ' re lazy? Sis is always good natured and she ' s the only known person able to subdue Sibbie, by mere physical prowess, I mean. Who was it anyway that started this Joan Crawford business? Danny ' probably, but any- how she is supposed to be a good replica of the original. Horse! Sit Down! Sis what ' s this about those evenings spent in that nice quiet park at Blockley? We ' re learn- ing things about you every day. Last summer two short honks out front and Sis would leave the Vic on the porch to its own devices and your next glimpse of her would be at breakfast! LUCY FAIRFAX FRAZIER Stephens City, Virginia r ]PiME your light was off Miss Frazier. This introduces Fax. She is from Virginia and we hope no one will carry her back. From many States we came but ' twas Fax who initiated and introduced us to the beau- ties of Our Capitol. Bus rides were the order of the day with Fax as Mr. Cook. We all join in thanking her for putting over the bazaar. We suggest that her own contribu- tions (stuffed animals) would make wonderful parting gifts, especially Woof-Woof. In further reminiscing may we never forget the elaborate spreads after her return from week ends. Her secret passions are :PubIic Health, renting apartments, tennis, salads and snow ice cream.
