Those smooth-looking sweaters are the prof ducts of her own tireless C?J efforts, and she knits them while listening to the strains of Tommy Dor- sey's orchestra. If appearance, a swell diposition, and a whole lot of ability have anything to do with it fif they haven't Miss Bronsonis been giving us the wrong 'steer J Mary has that wonderful job ready and waiting for her.

Mary is that cute little senior, with the long glamorous hair, whom we always see walkisg around the halls with a smile on her face. She is best de- scribed as a happy-go-lucky sort of a girl. What makes her so happy we ldon t know, unless it is that tall, dark, and handsome junior. We all wish her the best of luck and happiness in the years to come. DELPHINE CURTIS '-DEL Born in Marlborough, Mass., February 28, 1924. Pastimes: Working. Scholastic Intentions: Simmons College. Favorite Sport: Tennis. Secret Ambition: Retail Buying. Arlington certainly lost a valuable asset when Winchester gained Del. She has only been here a year, but she hasn't lost any time in making a place for herself. Tall, attractive, and distinctive, she has endeared herself to many by her 'sense of humor and love of excitement. We are sure that Del will be a great success. 'N
