LOUISE COCKELL Commercial Glee Club 1. 2; Choir 2. 3. 4; French Club 3. 4. Her hair is as golden as her heart. Petite, blond, Irene is one of the sweetest looking members of our class. Known for her neatness and well-selected wardrobe, she is very popular. Her sunny, bright disposition will see her to success as a Navy Nurse. The essence of an artist. Le is our class artist. She wants to become a typist but we think it would be a shame to do so when so much talent would be going to waste. Why not become a commercial artist, Le ? Music is well said to be the speech of angels. Lou is musically inclined. She has a beautiful soprano voice, and plays the violin. She wants to become a concert singer or play the violin in a symphony orchestra. Preferring to go her quiet way. Mary Lou has spent three years with us. Her quiet good nature will carry her through college successfully, and on to a life of service. Music is my rampart. Chapel wouldn't be the same without Louise at the piano. We all know and deeply appreciate her willingness and ability. Although she is a fine pianist, her ambition is to be a bookkeeper. 16

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

I chatter, chatter as I go. Crem's gay laughter and sense of humor are known and cherished by all. Her continuous flow of chatter brightens many a dull minute. She is one of our best liked classmates and her friendliness is certain to carry her far in the world. My heart is open wide. Midnite-black hair and a ready smile are Bunny's trade-marks. She is tall, quiet, and friendly. We feel certain that she will succeed in becoming a fine stenographer. 17
