FLORENCE HURTT DERINGER B.S. Sigma Sigma Omicron 3, 4; Treasurer 3; Society of Sciences 3; Student Assistant in Biology 4; Meritorious in Scholarship 1, 2; Distinguished Scholarship 3. Florence, known to the campus as Flos- sie , is one of our scientists— heading for med. school, in fact— but does that explain her unusual interest in snakes? She ' s an exacting and determined student, but en- joys horseback riding and a good game of chess. Her hobby is reading and col- lecting books, and Saturday afternoon finds her at the radio if Gonoud is being pre- sented. MARIAN VIVIAN DINGER B.A. Alpha Chi Omega I, 2, 3, 4; President 3; Women ' s Student Government Association 1; Mt. Vernon Literary Society 1, 2; Presi- dent 3; Glee Club 1, 2; Washington Play- ers 1, 2, 4; Elm Staff 2, 3, 4; Editor-in-Chief 4; Y.W.C.A. 1, 2. In spite of eyes on Annapolis and plans for becoming a Navy bride in June, Viv has found time to be Editor of the Elm. Dur- ing the week we find her working hard on headlines, but the week ends belong to the Navy. They say, though, that eating and sleeping are of importance also. Just rest- ing your eyes, Viv? 20

JAMES BRADLEY CAINE B.A. Theta Chi 2, 3, 4; Vice-President 3; Pres- ident 4; Varsity Baseball 3, 4; Head of Mid- dle Hall 4; Meritorious in Scholarship 3. Hey, Joyce! Who is that good-looking but rugged individual calling for Joyce? Jim Caine no doubt! With his confident, straight-forward manner Jim has an un- usual money making ability. He ' s putting our college rings on the map again. If your picture of Jim is still hazy imagine a pipe smoker wearing a T-shirt in the cold- est weather. That ' s Jim. ELLWOOD WEBSTER CURSEY B.A. Historical Society 1, 2; Meritorious in Scholarship 3. Hats off to Mr. Cursey! He ' s a hard- working gentleman, preaching in Kennedy- ville and attending classes here on the Hill. That ' s a full schedule for anyone, but Mr. Cursey has a smile for all, no matter how many flats along the way or how often Psychology and Sociology conflict with ser- mons and christenings. 19

VACHEL AUGUSTINE DOWNES B.A. Theta Chi 3, 4; Vice-President 4; Elm Staff 2, 3, 4; Managing Editor 2, Editor-in- Chief 3; Washington Players 2; Manager of Frying Pentagons 3; Baseball 3; Meritorious in Scholarship 3. Salisbury ' s loss was Washington ' s gain. Some transfers find the going tough, but not Vach . He enjoys responsibilities, ping-pong, chess; and a profitable law career is predicted because of his friendly man- ner. By the way, by his pipe and sardonic quips ye shall know him. MARGARET DUKES DRYDEN B.A. Alpha Omicron Pi 1, 2, 3, 4; Treasurer 3. Our attractive day hop from down the avenue wins us all by her generosity and congenial manner. Margaret Anne has two hobbies, worrying and talking— we can ' t say which we enjoy more. Her field is educa- tion, but she says that is just to fall back on. We think air hostessing ap peals to her more than teaching school. 21
