Quiet, unassuming, are the adjectives one applies to Virginia. Besides being stndious and on the alert for new things, she engoys parties and gossip sessions held in unearthly hours of the night. She is vitally interested in biology and delights in getting doiyn to the very existence of any living thing. One can VISLl2lllZC.xLIl'- ginia peering into a microscope, grossly engaged in fiCICEI lI1l!1lIlg what makes her specimen 'lworkf' Along with her scientific pur- suit of knowledge and her practice teaching, Virginia has been getting real library experience by really working at the Library. Indeed, she is giving her best and getting the most from col- lege life.

Peg was a transfer but she soon became an in- dispensable part of our class. lfVho could forget her rushing around after costumes for the Centenary Pageant or props for E52 Plays? Or as Nlephis- topheles in the Class Competitives of '35. It is the rare person who is just as competent behind the footlights as behind the scenes. Tall, blond, smiling-that was our first impression, but soon we added to this-a sincere friend, El good sport, and a dependable worker. MILDRED COOPER Wilmington, Delaware German Club III.

Boletns particularly has felt her absence this last year-her cheery hi-ya Kid. her clever paraphrases, her going to town with a ta-ta-ta. She lends her shoulder for everyones tears and she lends her smiles for eVeryone's joys-just a great pal, you know. And have you ever noticed the way those big brown eyes sparltle and her lovely dimple deepens when she smiles--a smile that certainly will win the hearts of those elementary school children when she starts teaching them.

At hrst sight, one supposes that Nancy is quiet, shy and demure. hut that illusion does not last long when one is around her. One finds out she has the friendliest of manners toward everybody, She is the eonlidante of all her lriends listening to their troubles and giving advice that has pre- vented many a scrape. To see her working in Practice llouse is to know she is eilieient and to see her curly head dancing around at a Formal is to know that she casts oll' her responsibilities with- out much troulule. ller ambition is to he a dieti- eian, but we think she will really realize her ambi- tion in a home of her own.

XVC call her charming and surely she is. When we saw llllinor we put her on a pedestal and then oilered her as our contribution to the heauties of the hiay Court. But lllinor isn't the type to stay on a pedestal. rl'here's something more to her than her beauty-something more stable than clay Qeven though we might say what's in a name?',l. And does she let those English courses get her down? No. a thousand times no-Chaucer, essay, and novel. she takes it all in and comes up smiling. Then gets on the other side of the desk and deals it out herself as a practice teacher. -Xlthough XY C D has elnmed three yeus of her college career. Lee still retains the imprint of a year's sojourn at the University of Alabama. She is identiiied on the campus by her pleasant drawl and her quaint ejaeulations. She is one of the amazing few who have chosen Biology as their major. In fact, her interest is so true that she intends to make experimental work her vocation, l'lowever, science is not her only interest for she is extremely versatile in piano, and is indeed well read. When one speaks to her one realizes that she is very clever and that she has an apt manner of expression. Thirty-one

When someone's buzzer rings on the second Hoof of Residence, it is more than likely l'Iazel's-and oli she goes to another dance. basketball game, or swimming meet. The morning after the night before, though, her lessons are inevitably prepared and her personal appearance is as eternally flaw- less as ever. How she manages so beautifully is what we puzzle about. and we've often wondered if I'Iazel's day is only twenty-four hours long. For the last two years she has been class treasurer and by some involved method jiggled the ligures so well that each of us received some Prom money back. We treasure treasurers like that.

Most of the time Libby is quiet. but it is the sort of quietness that has efficiency behind it. Lib is 21 dependable person and one to whom any sort of work can be assigned with the happy feeling that it will be completed to the satisfaction of all con- cerned. She started out as an Arts and Science and then changed to Home Economics in her Sophomore year. Those who know say she is taking it for another reason besides teaching. ln any case, her preparation has been thorough and we're sure she will more than meet the requirements.

Jo's bubbling, infectious good nature endears her to everyone who knows her. Her enormous brown eyes can be mischievous or thoughtful, while her active mind is busy either with serious thoughts or adorable Wittiness. She really wants to be a librarian so we know that her college career will not end with her gradua- tion in June. If you should hear tiny. quick footsteps tripping lightly along and seeming to occur three times to your one you can be sure that .Io is coming even though she is still around the corner.
