RACHEL PHIZLPS Arts and Science Clzrisfizlim, DL'ffl'Z0lI1'K Math Club I, II, III, IV: German Club II.I, IV: Phi Kappa Phi. Rachel is the little girl in our class whose air of dignity would lead us to suppose that she must have reached the eighth grade at least, but whose diminutive size would make one think that she could IIOIL be that old. She enjoys the unique dis- tinction of having been preceded at IVomen's Col- lege by three sisters whose achievements had already brought glory to the Phelps name before she arrived. Despite this handicap, Rachel's ac- complislnnents entitle her to be remembered for herself, not merely as another Phelps. I-Ier sin- cerity, friendliness, good humor and wit have com- bined to make her one of our best-loved class- mates.

Dot's expressive brown eyes first attract one's attention and then her ability to do several things at once and all of them well, keeps oneys attention. Whether she is looking for a curled mus- tache for the current production at Mitchell Hall, wielding a wicked stick on the hockey held, getting the ins and outs of business cycles or keeping noisy Seniors quiet in the dormitory, it is soon done and Dot is looking around for the next thing.

IIARRIETT ALE'l'l'IEA NIV IN Education .El.rmfn', Delaware Math Club I, II, III, IV: Science Club III: German Club III, IV: Phi Kappa Phi. To look at Harriett in class no one would be- lieve that she has more honor points than any other member oi the class. She is rarely stirred by class discussion. and has even been known to take a nap. However, although we feel that we may have missed something in not hearing her com- ments. she is certainly excused for she almost iu- variably makes the highest mark on the test. Her particular interest is economies, and we should not be surprised in the not-too-distant future to hear that H. A. Nivin. as she always signs herself. has been appointed Secretary of the Treasury, or to some equally important. position.

Beulah simply radiates enthusiasm-whether it be dancing in the Hilarium, a Y. W. meeting, or church in the rain, I-Iow we envy the perfect balance she manages to maintain in her life! Beulah is one ol' the best-liked people on campus because she is genuinely interested in people and the things they are doing. This, added to the fact that she is full of fun, that she has a contagious laugh-or should we say squeal?-a neat appearance and a real understanding of her lessons, makes her a college personality that we will always remember.

C. A. I, II, III, IV, Forum IV, Junior Prom Committee III. Whether you meet Anne in the May Court, on the hoekey field or just around campus. you'll Hnd the same sweet girl each time. In a hockey game Anne is both a fast player and a good sport, around campus she is the gayest of companions and a conscientious student, and in the IX'Iay Court she is a representative of whom our class can well he proud. Anne's room is like her-neat and attractive. I'ler daily cleauings may be a source of wonder to some people, but we think that it is a streak of dozncsticity developing in her.

What was more. she was generous with her music. This sclfsame generosity happens to be her most outstanding character trait. She's always doing something for someone-whether it's helping some of us with a biology write-up or turning back our beds and laying out our pajamas. She goes in for archery, swimming, and tennis in a big way. And yes, believe it or not, she's a pre-med student and also takes practice teaching.

Whenever there was an election carried on in which she was a candidate, Dot always came out the winner. To those who know her best it is only natural because of her personality and good fellowship, Dot is one of those girls who improves upon acquaintance, She can always be depended upon to do what is expected of her. though she never sccins to be working too hard. At the same time she never misses any of the fun, and she's ready for any lark. She has been active in sports, in dramatics. in the student council, while, on the other hand, she holds heriown in alIairs of the heart. Forty-tlzree
