BRISTOL, ELIZABETH Summer Street Cohasset, Mass. Classical Club Musical Club Art Club (Choinslee2 oe Somehow, when we think of choir we always think of Betty, the very last one up in the corner of the right-hand bench. Church will not seem natural without her there. She plans to keep on with music, but only as an avocation. Business looks much more in- teresting to her for every day. She is to be at Filene’s for a month this summer, and next fall she will go to the Prince School in Boston, to study personnel work. In be- tween times, Betty likes to climb mountains, great, great, big, high ones like Pike’s Peak and Mt. Everest and all the mountains around Norton. away her real motive in camp work, when she said: ‘‘I love to go berrying.”’ “T never did bring any high ambitions to college,’’ Winnie reflected, “I work hard when I do work,’’ she added. Looking at her list of accomplishments, we concluded that our A. A. president refuted the former statement, and proved the latter. She certainly has given us some mighty high ideals, for which we shall always be grateful. CHALMERS, WINIFRED 57 W. Trenelett Street President of A. A. 4 Vice-President of A.

While her fate is not sealed, like her room- mate Ruth’s is, Winnie expects to teach his- tory and English; preferably somewhere in the New England States. With Ruth, she is going to work in Filene’s this summer. Being quite new at the craft of salesmanship, Winnie declares that she will “sell anything.”’ Winnie is broad-minded enough not to want to teach more than one year, since she is not particularly interested. She wants above all to study architecture. Being a typically all-round girl, she is fond of camp and settlement work. She has been a swim- ming instructor .at Rainbow Camp in the Adirondacks. And she has done settlement work with working girls at Rosemary Cottage, Elliot, Maine. We wondered if she gave

1924 NIKE 27 BRAMAN, JOSEPHINE 418 Second Street Elyria, Ohio Cercle Francais Classical Club The electric current was quite low when we called on Jo (which sometimes happens), but we caught a mental picture of dark, curly hair, fluffy eiderdown, and lots of cloudy-blue chiffon; all quite intriguing to our weary eye. Jo must have heard us interviewing Jean, for she piped right up with the same line: “Just going to get married—I guess.” We assured Jo that this was old stuff, and warned her not to try anything funny on us, but Jo really was quite serious about it. At the same time, our sub-conscious mind wired to us that we had heard some mention of one Heman Ely before! So we reckon it is o.k. Jo expects to live in the suburbs of Phila- delphia; Bryn Mawr, or Overbrook; “if we can find any place cheap enough.” Jo sud- denly became enthusiastic: “Say,’’ she expostulated, “want to hear something funny? I’m going to do the cook- ing!”’ This was all very interesting, as was the fact, which we learned to our sorrow, that Jo was a fresh-air fiend. Feeling our edi- torial neck stiffening momentarily, we made haste to depart. We bet Jo will make a cute bride!

She has enrolled for the year course in the art at Columbia. After completing the course, she wants to teach near Boston. We believe Costello made the same remark, about being near Boston, we mean. It’s queer the way some people’s minds run in the same channels! Anyway, we will soon be in our second childhood at the rate we are going, so we will come on to “Crackers’’ school, for we think that she will make a mighty fine Kin- dergartner!

1924 NIKE 29 COLLEY, ELIZABETH 6 Pleasant Street Classical Club Deutscher Verein Secretary Agora Psyche Rockport, Mass. Sitting in a little white chair, before a little white desk, we found her writing a poem about the pitter-patter of the raindrops. We felt awed and shy in the presence of the Muse, but at length we summoned courage to ask what were her chief delights in life. Would she say rose petals, or furry gray kittens, or thin purple clouds? Casually she looked up, and then she beamed. “Oh, I like speed boats best, and next to that racing cars, I guess!’’ Would you have believed it of Beth? Probably she will teach English and History next year. COSTELLO EOUISE 45 Campus Avenue Lewiston, Maine Cercle Francais Wo WY (Ca AL, Caloningic BB Silver Bay Delegate 3 Baseball 2, 3 Assistant Editor Record 4 We found our literary Louise reclining on her couch, after the manner of the old Romans. Of course, we expected to find her engrossed in Ovid’s Metamorphoses, or Dante’s Inferno, or something. Instead, we were shocked to discover the disgusting label “Seven Day Book!’’ Louise casually stuck her elbow over the title. Anyway, we knew it must be awfully interesting, for she pro- ceeded to interview us as rapidly as possible. It seemed to be a case of room versus com- pany. Louise is planning to teach English in a high school. She declares that she will go anywhere. Business, it seems, has been rather dull. “I’ve applied to about a million places,’ Louise told us with a sigh. (We venture to say, Louise, that if you will try a personal interview you won’t have any trouble at all!)
