Her stupendous work on the Court has led us to think that perhaps someday she will be appointed to the Supreme Court. We like your style, your winning smile. Jeanne came to us from Chapman Tech in her sophomore year and was soon a well known girl on our campus. She has been voted our best dressed senior. Our lady of style should make a suo cessful buyer with her good taste and easy manners. 13

She came from West Boyleston. Massachusetts. We admire her for her ardent interest in Youth Activities, and for her ambition —to become a youth counselor. She is interested in photography also, and helped take candids for the Legenda. They that govern the most make the least noise.'' Bruhnsey' our capable class president, is everyone's friend and confidant. Her beaming personality and sense of earthliness will carry her through the toughest of problems, we feel sure. As graceful as a myth. Lorna's dancing is a constant delight-to all who are fortunate enough to see it. Her dancing has given her a grace of form which many envy. She hopes to travel, write a book, and then settle in the country. The secret of success is constancy of purpose. If we ever want a delicious meal we will know to whom to look, for Shorty's main interest is cooking. She plans to be a hospital dietitian. A generous friendship no cold medium knows. Pretty brown hair, blue eyes, and a friendly smile are Caddie's distinguishing features. When the ice freezes we shall know where to look for her! Her neatness will certainly help her to become a good nurse. IS
