If you hear a peculiar laugh while walking down the corridor, you may be sure it comes from Jean. A good sport who is lots of fun. Jean en- joys horseback riding and acknowledges a desire for A New Romance, but where Joe's concerned, the odds are against her. LAURA DAVAL Senior Play Ticket Chairman 1413 Glee Club 12, 31g Girls' Gym Program 12, 3, 413 Orchestra 12, 3, 413 Band 12, 3, 413 Spring Festival 12, 3, 41. Capability is written large on Laura who was one of the most energetic committee chairmen of the Senior Class. Although her hobbies and in- terests are varied, the trumpet seems to call her and she gives most of her time to the orchestra and band. twenty-two MAUDE L. DANIELS Financial Committee 12, 413 Mask and Mime Club 12, 313 Art Club 12, 313 French Club 1313 Girls' Gym Program 12, 413 Senior Play 141. Melting dark brown eyes are only one of Dede's claims to beauty. When not careening around corners in her car, she divides her time between house parties at Lehigh and week-ends at the farm. Cedar Crest will welcome this friendly and vivacious young lady.

Excelling in academic subjects and art, this auburn-haired damsel is the pride of the class and one of its two play- wrights. She swears that work is her pet aversion, but her remarkable record makes us skeptical.

' Edie claims an altitude of four feet, eleven and one-half inches, but every- one thinks the half superfluous. Lehigh and Suffield receive the brnefits of her charm, although she is footloose and fancy free. Edie tackles tasks wi h a smile and plenty of umph. LEROY CLARK Archaeological Society 12, 3, 43g German Evening 12, 3, 43. If you see a lad wandering through the desolate jungles of Picton as if hc's lost a prize possession, it's Roy, the arch-disturber of the Indian's rest, searching for relics. He enjoys drawing on his experience in New Mexico for material for translation into German. MARIURIE CLULEY Ring Committee 123, Latin Club 1235 Mask and Mime 13, 435 French Club 13, 43, Spanish Club 12, 3, 433 Senior Play Committee 13, 43. Margie has a smile that could melt your heart at one glance. Where Cleo goes, Margie also goes, for she is the star passenger. A gorgeous complexion and wavy brown hair are great endowments to say nothing of her famous laugh. You should see her ride! FRANCES CONOVER Academic Committee 1235 Forum 1235 Library Council 1235 Glee Club 13, 433 Gym Program 1435 Music Festival 13, 43. Blonde, slim, and carefree, Fran has a natural blush that is most captivating. As sunny of disposition as of hair Fran possesses a friendliness which endears her to everyone. Fran doesn't spend much time on homework, but it takes time to keep up an extensive correspondence and to learn to cakewalk. CHARLOTTE CONRAD Annual 143, Spanish Club 12, 3, Treas. 435 Latin Club 123g Mask and Mime 1233 Hockey 13, 435 Soccer 1435 Music Festival 12, 3, 43. If you happen to see a young girl in a very odd position, don't get excited! It is only Charlotte trying to get an especially striking picture. A good arguer with a last word complex, she makes a very lively companion. Her theme song should be Better Late Than Never. MARTIN CREE Easter Play 143, Senior Play 143, Mask and Mime 143. That tall, dark, curly-haired senior wandering lazily through the halls is Bud, the boy who does Lu's shorthand. Although Westield High is new to Martin, he has gained an enviable reputation. We shall always remember his excellent performances in Growing Pains and the Senior Play. twenty-one l

Peter has been the stalwart in the var- sity football line for two years. An ad- vocate of sports and an able goalie in hockey, he naturally follows the big- time games. Although he enjoys teas- ing girls, he has a heart as large as his supply of wit. MARY DITTO Senior Day Committee 141g Finance Committee 1413 Latin Club 12, 31g Tennis 12, 3, 41g Basketball 12, 3, 415 Baseball 12, 31. Dinzl and Egert grow rich on girls like Mary, for they induce them to pose in bathing suits and then sell the result. This vivacious chatterbox is interested in pretty clothes, 1-ine cars, and Red Dog. aid HAROLD EHLERS Academic Committee 1313 Archaeology Club 12, Vice-President 3, 41. Hap, who is one of the more reticent members of the class, has been known to loosen up among intirnates. He en- joys target shooting with his trusty twenty-two. His cousin and he form one inseparable company. The future will show what Hap was doing while we were laughing. .12 'A .ff ?'5'5'7'f'i '?1'f ANNE DRAKE Senior Play Committee 1415 French Club 12, 3, 41, Glee Club 13, 415 Latin Club 121g Mask and Mime 1313 Annual 141. Red hair usually denotes a violent temper, but Anne is as placid as a mill- pond. She manages to keep on the Honor Roll though she spends hours at the movies. Those who know her well attest her true friendship and her deep-rooted affection for certain people. VIRGINIA EVANS Most blonde of' all 1938 blondes is Virginia who is almost always seen with another very blonde young girl. A really slender girl, Virginia can afford to laugh at the dieters. Although her classmates think of her as truly reticent, it is certain that in the company of her intimates she is quite voluble. twenty three
