You wouldn't think Libby, with her fragile, cream-white femininity would be a whiz on the hockey field, would you? But Libby, you see, is a paradoxical person. She has a good many accomplislnnents you wouldn't suspect. She is inter- ested in the Y. W. C. A., is president of Forum, and does some of the loveliest art work on campus. She is one of our most industrious postermakers, and she is the main-stay of the Women's College dramatic productions, for she designs and makes most of the sets for our plays. In fact, you can't really know Libby until you see her at Mitchell Hall wearing a smock, paint brush in hand, sputtering flats, or directing the placement of furniture. All of which is most amazing when you consider that Libby looks like a piece of Dresden china-only she's lovelier, for who has ever seen a Dresden china figure with soft red hair, or whose eyes and nose wrinkle adorably when it laughs? illutli itlhnhw itivrring Arcrs AND Science XVILMINGTON Freshman Play Ig French Club I, Ilg French Play II: Vice- President Forum U3 Art Staff Pambo I, II, III, IV, Art Staff Blue and Guhl 'll', IVQ Delegate from Forum to Conference on Cause and Cure of War in hVCISllll'lgt0l1 II5 Delegate from Forum to Conference of International Relations Clubs III: Phi Kappa Phi. Mrs. Herring is one of the members in our class who really realizes the seriousness ol her work. She does remarkably well in everything, but she is at her best in Art courses. Her work is appreciated and admired by the whole college, and shows real talent. But she does not limit her activities to making posters and illustrating Panzbog she is active in a variety of organizations. Forum is her pet. She is a lovely looking lady-tall, with smooth blonde hair. Her judgments are mature, accurate and dependable, and, in the opinion of her friends, she is extremely well worth knowing. lvii

Her easy, languid, rather listless grace has earned her the title of the Grand Duchess. It is still a question whether her motions are the result of great effort, or whether they cost her no effort at all, for she floats along in the lazy fashion of a cloud on a nearly windless day. Her pale blonde beauty has earned her many admirers, and she often con- tributes her charms to the May Court. Does she sound like a girl interested in biology? But she is-very-tempered, of course, by enough French and English to oiiset the stringent effects of science.

That seems like a lot to say about one person, and to say it without any subtleties, but that's the way We feel about Minnie. She's a genuine person, and a good friend. When she does things she does them whole heartedly and good naturedly. There's nothing halfway about her. We like her sincerity, and we like her kindliness. She was lots of fun at the practice house. We .enjoyed having her live on campus with us. She's conscientious about her work, but she's no bore. She enjoys a good joke and we like to hear her laugh. It's not affected. It's genuine-just like everything about Minnie. Minnie's on the levelf' You can depend on her. lvi

If we were to name only one characteristic of Gertrude, we would chose her friendliness. She is known for her high scholarship, her work in the HY , her interest in Home Eco- nomies Club, and her common sense. But she is famous for her ability to make and keep friends. We shall remember her for her jaunts to Y conferences and the good times she helped to make there, And Esmeralda with the reverse gear shift. And riotous times at the practice house. Gertrude has a smile all her own, she has n characteristic walk, and a pleasant way of speaking that make her different from the crowd. She is good fun, and something would have been lacking in our four years as a class if Gertrude had not been with us.

Very rarely is this petite lady with the cute freckles on her nose in class at the conventional time. Nonehalantly she stalks in a little late for rnorel, heralded by a merry tune and the click of heels. Biz is always singing. She has a really lovely soprano voice-which is quite surprising from one so small. Another surprising thing about her is the candidness of her opinions Cwhich has never lost her n single friendj, for there is always a glimmer of humor in her big black eyes as she hurls forth her cock- sure decisions. lviii
