Calling all alumnae: Please

’36
Ellen Smedley Smith (Fayetteville, AR) I am enjoying my home, golfing nine holes, delivering meals to the elderly, and planning summer trips to Denver and our Estes Park cabin for hikes and peace with my lifelong friend, Phil Prescott, and my children, grandchildren, and great-grandchildren.
’37
Kathryn Johnson Allen (Oakland, CA) When one is 93, memories of the past are daily and cheering companions. I often return in memory to Scripps to those early days, the academic challenges, the beauty of the campus, the amazing faculty, to traditions in the making, and the classmates who shared them. Jean Marshall Cates (Nevada City, CA) I am 94, living in the home that my husband and I bought 46 years ago, enjoying my garden and my studio.
Go-o-o-o-al! Showing great spirit, members of the CMS women’s soccer team and alumnae players celebrate the completion of the naming of Alumnae Field, a successful fundraising drive with a matching challenge from an anonymous donor. The Alumnae Field sign is now installed over the field’s scoreboard.

’40
Virginia Rupp Beatty (Portland, OR) I have met another Scrippsie here in my new “home,” a lovely little lady who attended Scripps for three years in the College’s earliest years, “Sally,” or Sarah Becker Ruyle ’34. She remembers the campus before the green lawns, the elms, and the rose garden, and remembered Betty (Elizabeth) Clark and Drs. Jaqua, Alexander, Caster, and “Pappa” Cailler.
’41
Betty Blurock Hohwiesner (Laguna Woods, CA) I’m living in my own apartment in Laguna Woods, aced my driver’s test, and celebrated my 90th birthday Oct. 24 with a party of friends and family coming from Pennsylvania, Virgina, Florida, Idaho, and California, including my 14-month-old great-grandson, Mats.
