Louise is the black-haired girl who is always wearing a beret. She wears her berets rather smartly, too, for she is an athletic-looking person with a vigorous walk, and a disposi- tion to be active. But she's not really a hefty athlete, being bridge minded, and the very best ns to be able to tell by looking at people that they have that orange tray with the blue handles, she needs for the second, act, or a turkey red table cover with white fringe, for the first scene. Which makes her a valuable person, indeed. The fact is, but a very feminine girl, her secret passion games, and not hockey lields. She is socially likes to be with people and dance. And she is property-gctter in the whole college. She seei we should feel lost without her. Ethyl Marg Holman Home Economics NEWARK Home Economics Club I, II, IH. You remember the old proverb. ':As Fine as hvepeuce, as neat as ninepeueen? Vtfell, that proverb reminds us ol' Ethel, for she is the very soul ol neatuess, and she is lovely, sympathetic, and sweet. While most of us go about with skirts awry and hair looking like Irish moss, Ethel looks as if her dresses had just paid a visit to the ironing board. Her hair lies in a soft yellow knot at the uape of her neck, with never a strand out of place. There is an air of placidity about Ethel that few people attain, and a calm, mild attitude toward things that leads her to be forever poised and undis- turbed. Ethel appeals to us as a girl who is altogether charming and altogether sweet. kg-sk NEWARK xci

She has astounded us with her skill at knitting, and her lnculty ol picking up a stitch six or eight rows back. Not only does she do her work, but she usually knows the assignment lor next time. She has time to work in the library too. In fact, she aspires to be a librarian some day. She does her hair well-sleek, with a low knot. She plays the piano better than well, and she aniuses herself by taking pictures for the year book. illlarg illntli illrtrhrnui Airrs Ann Science NIILFORD Glee Club I, II: French Club I5 Outing Club Ig Basketball I, II, III, Soccer III3 Forum III. Ruth is a comely, calm looking young person-so calm, in fact, that you'd never suspect what an imp she really is, full of niischief and fun. She is full of laughter, gaiety, and wit-to the never-failing aniuseinent of her friends, which are far from few in number. For she has Z1 genius for friend- shipg this warm-hearted, generous girl draws liking and allection to her wherever she goes, merely by being her placid, happy-go-lucky self. But we do not mean to insiuuate that she docs not work- far from ir, since her rnind is as quick as her tongue. If you want to know anything about chemistry, find Ruth, who is a wizard when it comes to writing formulae and solving equations. Although she is not likely to overwork herself, yet she has a keen, clear mind which makes her hours ofvstudy, no matter how few, highly profitable. XC,

She does more quiet work for her class than anyone will ever know about because she is so modest and self-effacing about it. She is efhcient, practical, and industrious-a good combination for a class oflicer, and Nlarylee ix a good oflicer. 'l'he girls think she is just about the salt of the earth, and they are probably right at that, for she is all-around-friendly. socially inclined, stndious, sportsmanlike, and athletic. She is a loyal friend and a gay one, never speaking a cross wordg and above all, she is honest to the backbone. But in spite of being a public character, so to speak, she is an independent thinker and one who keeps her thoughts to herself largely. We often wonder, therefore, what is going on behind her twinkling eyes-whether she is laughing with us or at us, or merely having a good time all to herself. illllarg Alirv lliailllnitr Arrrs AND SCIENCE xVlI.MlNG'l'0N French Cluh H19 Hockey Club IIIg Glee Club III. Mary Alice is a transfer from Wheaton College, but two days after her arrival, one could not have guessed it, so well did she fit into Delaware life and ways. Meanna, as her best friends affectionately call her, is tall, with smooth hair, and quiet poised dignity. She is a good student and spends many hours at the library, but she takes numerous vacations too, especially over week-ends. Her ability as a hockey and baseball player is well known. She goes to all the dances and is generally-good fun! xcii
