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.

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

ELIZABETH EVENSON Cholvin Manor Wilton, Wisconsin TTjROBir days in Quarters Seven! We would all congregate in Betty ' s room and she would don her licle orange apron and make cinnamon toast for the crowd. She could stir up fudge out of nothing at all, and what fudge. She even greased the plate with cold cream one time when butter was scarce, but it must have been a good brand for we are all living and well. Those cold nights when we all paraded out to the sleeping porch and found our beds short- sheeted, we have a faint idea that quite often Betty was the instigator. Betty is frank, vivacious and fun-loving; popu- lar with us all and we will miss her when she goes On to Wisconsin. ' MARY VIRGINIA EVENSON Cholvin Manor Wilton, Wisconsin Thkre ' s no in between with Gin. She either goes to bed at eight P. M. or one A. M., but she is up with the milkman! (No! Not out with him.) She starts her good deed for the day by dragging some of her lazy neighbors out of bed. Come on kids — this is Thursday. Yes, ail day! Snap into it! Booze, it ' s your time to take the laundry over. Gin believes in getting her fifteen-day sick leave yearly. Measles, pneumonia, she ' ll try any- thing once. Remember how we visited her on old 2S ? XVll have to hand it to Gin for her good com- mon sense and her unfailing sense of humor that has brought her up smiling from many trying situations. Twenty-eight
