We of the Year Book Staff, having plodded a troubled way through a maze of anxieties, despairs, and high jinks, now emerge unscathed to offer our Graduation Gazette of the class of 1943.

We also wish to offer here our very sincere thanks to those many others who, at different times, have so kindly helped us to keep the book moving down the production line.

MISS RUTH E. DUNHAM Dean of the Senior Class and Faculty Advisor of the Year Book We find no word or phrase adequate to express our gratitude to Miss Dunham, who has been a deep source of inspiration to the Class of 1943 and invaluable to the Staff of the Year Book.

DEDICATION When we were in trouble She came with a smile."

It is, therefore, with the deepest respect and gratitude, that we, the Class of 1943, dedicate our Year Book to MISS ROBERTA C. McBRIDE

IN MEMORIAM

May 4, 1925—November 22, 1942 "Rough winds do shake the darling buds of May"

We will remember her boundless energy Her persistence, her ability to do everything well, Her continental charm, her sparkling green eyes And most of all her low English laughter.

SALLY TUCKER "TUCKER" VASSAR Green Team, Christmas Pageant, Waite, Lenten Choir, Pullman Car Hiawatha, Trial by Jury, President of Senior Class, May Court.

Tucker is tiny and quiet but no blonde ever succeeds in being inconspicuous. She giggled into N. S. F. G. last fall and we set her right up behind the eight ball as President of the Senior Class. She works like the traditional Trojan; her pet passion is posters, and she has pestered every storekeeper in Northampton for some wall decorations.

Next year she is going to swamp Vassar so—copying a certain Merchant Marine's phrase we offer her this farewell thought You're -t'Okay, love."—

SMITH "SLATS" While Team, Vice President of the Senior Class, Vice President of the Student Council 43, French Club 43, May Queen.

—"Oh do you come from—? Oh golly then do you know—or--or?" Yes, you're right, that came from Nancy Atwood, the girl known to be the master link between the day girls and the boarders. We think of her as the "blithe spirit" who builds castles in the air with a capital J and who brings us countless stories of her irrepressible family. We keep telling her that those who arc lucky in love-arc unlucky in cards but she seems to be playing her. hand quite well. Indeed! A blithe spirit.

JANICE BUTTERWORTH "BUTTER" WILSON While Team, Pegasus, Secretary Student Council, Treasurer, Senior Class SecretaryTreasurer, Christian Association.

Butter is as rare 25 her name. She is following well in her sister's footsteps by being secretary of practically every organization possible. She takes to the air with the help of her army air corps wings and flies into her many duties with zinr and zest. With a pet phrase—"One sundae a week is okay isn't it?" she deftly dodges the weighing scales and beams in a placid way through 2 network of music appreciation and French H. Our Butter is the epitome of laughter and gayety.

NANCY ELWOOD BROWN "WOODIE" ROCHESTER UNIVERSITY Green Team, Waite, Pageant Choir, Pegasus, Lenten Choir, Trial By Jury.

Our first lesson in Geography last fall Came from Woodie when we were all made to confess that we were unacquainted with her great home town of DEPOSIT. But by now, we are all aware of its fame and importance, even though she was disappointed not to take us all home with her. Life is never dull with Woodie around. Dieting, singing, Cornell, Texas, and reforming her room-mate gave her the odd grey hair, but nothing will ever outdo her. It is with this thought in mind that we say Good-Bye regretfully to our favoeite Northampton nightingale.

JANICE RAE BROWN

-

SMITH "JAN" White Team, Pegasus 41-43, How Like a God 41-42, May Day Pageant 42, French Club.

Did you feel something brush by you just now? That was Janice in her daily rush for Scott Hall before 8:20. Janice trying valiantly to beat Father Time or else buried chin deep in books, always has time to greet you with a demure hello, wherever she is. She certainly appreciates a good joke, and talking of appreciation did anyone mention our canine friends/— Another of our Smith hopefuls, Jan will find her groove there nicely, where her practised hand at bridge ought to be mighty useful. Au revoir, Janice, and we'll be seem' you.

ELIZABETH BRUMBACK "BRUMMY" SMITH Green Team, Treasurer, Athletic Association, Librarian of Glee Club, Waite, Lenten Choir, Trial By Jury.

Another chapter was added to history when a dust storm blew Brummy East, and set "Van Squirt" on the map. She is a mannequin for Kelly green coats, an avid conversationalist, and the school's choice hairdresser. In the latter, she not only cuts, styles and curls the coiffure— she is the top tinter of our times.

Hope you keep adding color to every phase of life, Brummy, and thanks for helping us out in our Geography.

•

CONNIE CLARK CONNIE ELMIRA Green Team, Dramatic Club 42-43, Pegasus 42-43.

Connie the lone daygirl from Holyoke, seems to bear up well under the strain of an eight mile journey to school every morning, and even after a gruelling ordeal of Spanish or Richard Feverel her incorrigible grin and sense of humor is there.

That Green blazer of hers always claims the center of attraction. She says it is her brother-in-law's.

We wonder.

AILEEN CRAMER AILEEN MOUNT HOLYOKE White Team, Dramatic Club 41-43, May Court 40.

Aileen is the whiz in all our classes and we wonder how she does it; perhaps it is the scholastic background of Mount Holyoke College. What with a new sister to swell the family brood Aileen's troubles have scarcely begun, but to her "life is a joy that is just begun."

ANTONIA DEANE JONES "ToNI" CONNECTICUT COLLEGE White Team, Dramatic Club 40-43, President of Stronach House 41, How Like a God 41, Middler Usher 42, President of Student Council 42, Weatherwise 43, May Court.

Though some of us may not be seeing her after this year, we will always have memories of the gunboats, and the somewhat virtuoso singing. This is our Toni, the cool calm and collected young lady from Oxford. Even with the extraction of her appendix to start off the winter semester, we have the unanimous opinion that she has accomplished a wonderful job as the first President of our Student Council.

We wish we could all have R.A.F. fathers like Miss Deane Jones, or all have her eye-lashes, but some people get everything, that's all.

MARY ELIZABETH DOBLE MARRIAGE PREFERRED "DOBLE" White Team, Dramatic Club, President of Hathaway 42, Lenten Choir, Pullman Car Hiawatha, Trial by Jury, Art Editor of Year Book, Christmas Pageant, Pegasus, May Court.

"Here comes the bride, She's Northampton's pride.

Scuffin' down the aisle With the navy at her side."

Doble is probably the only gal in school who can be summed up in four lines.

But she has some other good lines too.— like how to knit pink sweaters to keep from feeling blue. You understand, I mean by that—Navy blue. You have heard the saying "Love Goes to College" and "Love goes to Hollywood" but in Doble's case love has gone to heart. She leaves memories of meticulously scribbled envelopes, Year Book fever, and a faint tinkle of wedding bells, from afar.

Keep tinkling, belle, and smooth sailing.

ELIZABETH ANN DONNELLY "DON" SMITH While Team, Camera Club, Pegasus, Photography Editor Year Book, Trial by Jury, Lenten Choir.

Wahoo! Here comes the Dartmouth Indian with Donnie 24 chief squaw. A loyal fan of the big green. She has many fans too. A genius at knitting complicated argyles, and equally as good in buffoonery, there's never a dull moment with Donnie.

Our party girl's future looks bright. With versatility and social tact, she could carry on a challenging conversation with President Roosevelt or Mahatma Gandhi. A bewitching smile and a gay wit,—thus Donnie leaves Hamp on June seventh.

ROBERTA FERNALD "BERT" While Team, Camera Club 41-42, President of the Camera Club 42-43.

Bert, our flash photographer, will no doubt win the war by risking her life to photograph the German's secret bomb shelter.

She will be our front page girl with the biggest scoop of the year. A hard working, conscientious student, Bert always succeeds in what she does—especially with those glossy photos. A meek voice, a winsome smile, and her, quaint appeal makes Birdie our blue ribbon girl for 1943.

CAROLYN FITCH "FITCHIE" DENNISON Green Team, Dramatic Club 42-43.

Who has not heard the melodious strains of the maestro Carol at work on any available piano? Boogie Woogie, blues, swing, rag-time, she is Queen of them all.

Working for the Dramatic Club is another of her strong fortes, and what with her tea committees and poster paintings our Mask and Wig will lose a good member this year.

SHIRLEY B. HILL VASSAR "BUNKER" Captain of 'White Team, President of Stronach 41, President of MontgomeryScott, Class Vice President 42, Baccalaureate Choir, Christmas Pageant 43, Co-editor Pegasus, Production Manager, Dramatic Club, Waite, Secretary Senior Class, Lenten Choir.

Bunker has been here for three years, won the U. S. Time magazine contest, given inspiration to the well-worn Pegasus, chopped off her resemblance to Veronica Lake, cherished 2 passion for red shoes, and staged endless battles with Cupid.

Now with a graceful leap, the Captain of the White Team plans her departure, laden down with all sorts of honors, prizes, and memories. We regret the parting, and the Seniors point with pride to "Beulah, the Belle of Boarding School."

P.S. Be careful of the three B's, Beulah.

PENELOPE HUMPKRIES "PENNIE"SMITH Green Team, Camera Club, Pegasus, Christmas Pageant, Weatherwise.

Pcnnic, yet another of the girls from "over there", excels in the line of Chemistry and History. Coon Coats, love for jitterbugs, sense of humor, and a height approaching six feet all belong to Pcnnie.

A certainty for Smith, we are wishing the future Phi Beta Kappa member "good hunting."

NANCY MASON "SPIKE" SIMMONS White Team, President of Dramatic Club 42-43, President of Hathaway 43, Lenten Choir, Trial by Jury, Mummer's Play, Christmas Pageant 41, Business Manager of the Year Book, Santa Claus, Pullman Car Hiawatha.

Fondly tagged Spike, Hathaway's house President, with her spontaneous happiness, spreads life and spirit throughout the school. A hearty guffaw and a joke for all, Spike copes with all troubles, 'male or otherwise, in a placid attitude with which she pulls through the crisis in grand style. Her love for a good time always proves to be entertaining, and speaking of entertainment we hear that the Army is lucky in having Miss Mason as a hostess.

Here's a note to Simmons. Watch Spike at the diet table and keep her away from the "Baba au Rum."

(THIN

ROSEMARY MILEHAM SMITH "CHIPS" Green Team, President of Stronach 41-42, President of Christian Association 42-43, French Club, Camera Club, Weatherwise.

She began her life as a rose but it was not long before she found herself tangled up in a bed of thorns. From playing hideand-go-seek with the coke bottles, to trying to keep the rules of Council, our one and only Chips has led a wild and active life. Having arrived from England in 1940, she is probably the only person in Massachusetts who has attended both Burnham and N.S.F.G. Thinking that breakfast is at quarter of eight, that learning to play bridge is harder than getting on the honor roll, and that permanents arc God's punishment to vanity, Chips is an altogether individual person who so aptly portrays the verse from the book of lob: "I am the rose of Sharon, And the lily of the valley's As the lily among thorns."

HELEN LOUISE MITCHELL SMITH "MIKI" Captain of Green Team, Pegasus, Christmas Pageant, President of Student Council, Literary Editor of Year Book, Dramatic Club, May Court.

No, its not superman but our pride and joy "Masi". A romantist at heart, Miki can write anything from prose to soap operas. Her greatest interest originates however, "South of the Border" but she is concentrating on her many duties as President of Student Council and literary editor of the year book. The center of all attractions, our Miss Mitchell, isn't "Gone with the Wind" but still twittering loudly in the breezes.

Always ready with an abundant supply of frightful puns, successfully creating a sun-set glow in her brown coiffeur and consuming a dozen Dusty Millers with no drastic results (and nary a bulge), are only a few talents of our most amazing Miki. It is thus that we leave Miki wistfully sighing under blue Canadian skies!!!

RUTH MOORE "RUFUS" White Team, Christmas Pageant 39-41, Treasurer of the Junior Class 40-41.

If information is required about summer camps, ask Rufus, the one who knows them Inside and out. She trails the faculty or beats a path to the library in "pursuit of knowledge". In her spare time she cherishes a great fear that one day her low front lock will cause her a serious resemblance to Herr Hitler. After June seventh, N.S.F.G. will unhappily be minus the owner of the subtle dry wit, but who knows—maybe Rufus' sister will come to fill the empty void.

PRISCILLA MARGUERITE PARSONS "CILLA" MASSACHUSETTS STATE White Team, French Club.

Come fall, and down we went en Masse to Prissy's farm to help out with the harvest.

We will never forget the fun we had, nor either perhaps the backaches.

Prissy is our accomplished horsewoman, the devoted admirer of any and every horse. She goes in for Scouts in a big way too. Through our mysterious grapevine we hear that she may be going to Mass State, in which case the college is receiving no mean gift.

ANNE NICHOL SMITH "NICKY" SMITH White Team, Pinafore 41, Baccalaureate Choir 41, Dramatic Club 42-43, How Like a God, Treasurer of the Middlcr Class 42, Daygirl Representative 42, Middler Usher 42, Jo/an/he, Vice-President of Student Council 42, President of Glee Club 42-43, Editor of Year. Book 43, Lenten Choir, Trial by Jury.

Since we have known Nicky, we are convinced that Science made a mistake in saying that there were only seven wonders in the world. Nicky is just as much of a phenomena as Niagara Falls except that she is a little more quiet and we have never yet known her to let off steam.

Daughter of an Oxford professor, she caused no mild sensation upon her arrival in Northampton. Those "lovely liquid I's" a dynamic vocabulary, her unequalled enthusiasm, and an ability to work when the rest of us are reaching a decadent stage, has rendered us all a bit awestruck.

So, if any member of. the Smith faculty is within reading distance, (even if it be President Davis himself) may he heed word of counsel: revolutions are mild compared to Nicky. You'll find yourself in an atmosphere pungent with a touch of Old Oxford, the salt breezes of Maine, and the cadences of Brahms. Such is Shnicklenitch, the gal with the "joie de vivre".

CLAIRE ANDERSON TAPLEY VASSAR CLAIRE White Team, Secretary-Treasurer of the Camera Club 42-43, Pegasus Photography Editor 42-43.

Imagine a meadow of daffodils, against of Tschaikowsky's Fifth 2 background symphony, sunlight pouring through the treetops, the perfumed spray of lilacs, and you will find yourself thinking of Claire.

No gusts of wind in her life, no discords, no rainy days of temperament,— Claire is music, gayety, and merriment to all of us. Need we say what it will be like without her?

PHOEBE TAYLOR PHOEBE SMITH Green Team, Waite, Pinafore 41, lolanthe 42, How Like a God 42, Le Merkel,: Malgre lui, Letters to Lucerne 43, Mask and Wig 4.3, French Club, Lenten Choir, Trial by Jury, Pullman Car Hiawatha.

Piercing screams, long narrow feet, giggles of appreciation, a music fan both classical and otherwise, lengthy dimples and an urge to be sophisticated; these arc some of the characteristics of Phoebus Apollo.

She is an enthusiast in the Gilbert and Sullivan line and owns a strong alto voice that swells the chorus. We hear that if not in Smith she has designs on Swarthmore, and who could want more?

ELISABETH TENNANT "BETH" White Team, Christmas Pageant, Waite.

A giggle that runs the gamut from A to Z, this picturesque pattern has a Virginia drawl and long eyelashes fluttering over coy green eyes—a Richmond belle who represents the South in good standing.

A fondness for "Scotties", and staunch supporter of the Diet Table, Beth's humor (?) and zest add vividly to our school life.

MARY ANN THOMAS "TOMMY" SMITH While Team, Dramatic Club 41-42, Secretary Treasurer of Dramatic Club 42-43, Pegasus, Christmas Pageant.

Three years ago Tommy hailed N.S.F.G. for the first time, and from then on she ho spent a hectic time, involved in dramitic club costumes and secretarial minutes. Always seen, surrounded by knitting, sewing, or letters from home, Tommy has endless news to tell us concerning Waupun. With her willingness to lend a helping hand, she is a life saver to all.

Now having graduated, let us remember her slogan: If you want to have fun, Come to Waupun!ll

JOAN HARRIET TOBIN SMITH "JO" Green Team, How Like a God, Out of the Frying Pan, Christmas Pageant 42, Dramatic Club 42-43, Pegasus 42-43, Pullman Car Hiawatha, Weatherwise, Lenten Choir, Trial by fury, Year Book Staff, May Court.

Mention boogie woogie, Dusty Millers, green and purple dresses, telephone calls from Williston, and we know you mean Jo. The last to get up in the morning and the last to go to bed at night, Jo is a one man choir, vaudeville show, and Peck and Peck headliner 211 in one.

She is an authority on Dramatics, the Hit Parade, and tall blonde football players.

As to marriage or a career it's still a draw, but we predict that it will be the former,—a glossy elopement with the bride in her curlers and the groom in his favorite argyles, which, by the way, Jo knitted. They will take a honeymoon in Woo-cester, then set up housekeeping in a river boat on the Ohio, with Kelly's right hand man at the wheel, steering a crooked course.

MARGARET WARREN "SANDY" Green Team, Pegasus.

Madelaine Carroll may be Bob Hope's favorite blonde but Sandy is ours. Another one of Colorado's lovely Pulchritude who left hcr home on the range to venture east where they keep the Indians penned up now.

A prize honor student, Sandy can even hold laurels in Miss Bement's French III. Easily frightened by alarm clocks, Sandy jumped out of bed one morning, so-oo suddenly that her neck stayed in a stationary angle the rest of the week.

Friendly to all, Sandy is a well-known personality—and we do mean personality.

HOPE WHEELER HOPE SMITH Green Team, Camera Club 42-43.

Hope, the illustrious inhabitant of Hathaway second floor back, is the "live wire" in every connection.

With a grin and a voice box that is on a full-time non-stop shift, Hope possesses the cream of the gossip and the dregs of the moron jokes. She's our choice for an excellent horsewoman, and Harvey is hers for the groom, even though her conscience says, "neigh, neigh."

PATRICIA WHITE SKIDMORE ."TRIT" White Team, President of Junior Class 40-41, Business Manager of the Pegasus 41-42, How Like a God 41-42, Dramatic Club, President of Athletics Association 4243, Editor of Pegasus 42-43, Christmas Pageant, Middler Usher 41-42, May Court.

Bright plaid shorts, a Powers' girl figure, a ragged blue football shirt, and a flowing jargon of nonsense, brings to mind our personality girl, Trit, a veteran of the Alma Mater for thtce years.

A passion for farms and their inhabitants, we hope that she will be able to apply her athletic ability to milking cows and gathering eggs. Can't you see the astonishment of the bewildered barnyard menagcriL when, at the crow of the last feeble rooster, Trit capers across the cobblestones in her long striped nightgown yelling "Joey, Joey, we're late again."

MILDRED STERNBERGER Resident student from 1940-1942 she is eligible for a deferred diploma after successfully completing a year's work at college.

CLASS PROPHECY LETTER TO THE ALUMNAE: As you all know, Miss Bement is now in Europe doing her part for reconstruction.

Miss Whitaker received a letter from her recently and found it so intriguing that she has given the school permission to publish it herewith: April 1, 1950.

MY DEAR SARAH: It is impossible to describe the conditions here. The ruins remind me of the Hathaway bedrooms. Indeed it is like a pigpen. C'est la Guerre! But enough of that!

Last week I decided to attend a hearing of the scandalous Marseilles trial. On my way there I had to pass through one of the suburbs that is under repair. Scores of workmen were probing about, among them, the prominent staff correspondent, Anne Nichol Smith. She says business isn't scl good, so she is doing a little ditch digging on the side. In the same vicinity I spied Rufus Moore who has turned street cleaner because she can't stand to see things in such a mess. Well, anyway, they both sent their love and I went on to the trial. What a shock! My dear, Nancy Angelina Brown is still on trial. The judge is at present on leave. His wife back in Virginia is having her fifth.

Do you remember that brilliant Cramer girl? She is acting as chief interpreter at the trial.

Our girls are certainly in the headlines. Janice Brown is doing research work on Louis Pasteur's cure for mad dogs. One of her poodles attacked a certain Miss White the other day. Yes, Sarah. Trit got bit!

Also in the front ranks is Toni Deane Jones. She is the English representative to the World Court. But the belligerents claim that she cannot rightly act as a patron of peace until she gets rid of her gunboavs. And speaking of council presidents, Miki Mitchell is stationed in Holland. She is head of the International Police Squad which regulates traffic on the Dutch dykes.

You have asked me about the Paris night life. It is spectacular to say the least.

The choice dive is Mason's Bar where it is still against the law to spike the drinks.

They held the premiere for their new floor show last week in honor of Miss Betsy Brumback who lately won the Pulitzer Prize for her book on "The Lack of Tact."

I met several of the alumnae at the opening. Shirley Hill was there, looking tired and tattered. She is still trying to get a gossip column for Pegasus. With her was that St. Louis woman who now speaks one and a half languages.

The floor show was a bit breathtaking to say the least. You'd better sit down while I tell you this. Its star was none other than Gypsy Rose Donnelly. I didn't stay for the end of the show.

On my way home, I passed Madame Schiaperelli's new shoppe. She is featuring in her window a display of trousseaux by Thomas.

But enough about Paris. As you know, I took a trip down to Switzerland. My companion and I made a special point of going to the International Zoo for Wild Animals. Our guide turned out to be Priscilla Parsons who isn't very happy just now.

She is taking lessons on how to post on a camel. She was showing us around the grounds and my dear,—there were Hitler and Mussolini behind bars. And who should be in the next cage but Jo Tobin, gayly chattering to the blonde monkey keeper. That was too much for me. I had to go to the Riviera to recuperate. You had written me to look up Beth Tennant who was vacationing there. I spent several days in finding her. She is living in a tenament house and is taking in washing. She says she is all washed up!

After my visit with her, I chartered a boat for Africa. The voyage was rough and I saw little other than Butter at the rudder and Phoebe Taylor as chief bailer. The voyage was very tiring and it was with great relief that I disembarked at Casablanca. I took a walk before sundown and looked in on a night club where Carolyn Fitch was playing "As Time Goes By." At the same time Sally Tucker flew past. She was looking for Humphrey Bogart but as usual she was unlucky.

CLASS PROPHECY (Cont.)

During my stay in Casablanca I visited the buildings where Roosevelt and Churchill held their famous conference. I nearly collapsed when I saw Bert Fernald dozing on an old couch. It seems that she was waiting to scoop some pictures of the President but she fell asleep.

After Casablanca, I cruised across to Italy and there was quite a celebration when we docked. As I peered through the crowds, I spied Betty Doble sprawled out on the wharf in her wedding gown. She is still waiting for the fleet to come in!

I am sending you a newspaper clipping about Pennie Humphries. Last week she broke all records by swimming the Hellespont in six strokes.

There isn't a great deal more to say. Oh, yes,—Rosemary Mileham is here at the Hotel. She is employed as a telephone operator. She says she got her experience from the Hathaway buzzer. I had a long talk with her. She seemed to think that I am gaining weight and recommended Sandy's Slenderizing Sanitarium for Successful Starvation.

Believe it or not, that is where I am now. Hope Wheeler is with me. So far she has lost 200 pounds. I don't see very much of her.

I am returning to Paris next week. Will you write to me there? I am dying for some news of summer school. How is Mademoiselle Atwood getting along in my place?

By the way, she can't be much of a success at teaching if she has six nights off out of every week. Tell Mr. So and So the Third that he will have to look elsewhere for his entertainment. Why doesn't he try the Widow Clark? She has seven curly headed little youngsters and a pension from The War Veterans' Temperance Union.

I must toddle now. Don't forget to pay your income tax and give my regards to Earl Tonet. Oh—the man from the Tapley Transport Field is here. I must run after him and ask him to take this letter along. The fastest mail we have goes by Cl-air Mail.

All for now.

Avec Amour, Votre "Dorothy."

FIRST STUDENT COUNCIL

Under the helping hand of Miss McBride the Student Council has had a successful year.

The first semester, Toni Deane Jones shouldered the responsibility as president with loyalty and spirit towards the school and students. One able leader was succeeded by another when Miki Mitchell was elected as President for the second term. The council has carried out effectively a drive for better attitude and willingness to cooperate with the council.

We congratulate you for making our school a happy community in which to live.

SECOND STUDENT COUNCIL

CHRISTIAN ASSOCIATION The Christian Association headed by Rosemary Mileham with Janice Butterworth as secretarytreasurer, has been more than active this year. In the winter semester the money obtained from our school United Nations Bazaar was equally divided among the Greek, the Chinese, the Fighting French, and the British War Reliefs. Later through a series of "golden rule" dinners, we sent money to Madame Chiang Kai Chek personally. Through these dinners we were also able to continue taking care of our Chinese girl and English boy.

ATHLETIC ASSOCIATION Athletic Association this year has been keeping us well up to the mark and well on our toes. With Pat White as President, Miki Mitchell as Captain of the Greens, Shirley Hill as Captain of the Whites, and Betsy Brumback as secretary-treasurer, the Athletic Association has launched many a tussle between the Greens and the Whites. A gym meet between the two teams early in the year was a very popular revival, while Miss Wallis' Junior Commando Corps training aroused all interest.

THE MASK AND WIG

The Mask and Wig this year produced three superior plays. With the aid of Miss Deans, their advisor, Nancy Mason, their president, Mary Ann Thomas, secretary-treasurer, Shirley Hill, production manager, they gave the following plays: "Letters to Lucerne," "Pullman Car Hiawatha," and "Weatherwise."

As the result of the boundless energy of faculty advisor Miss Booth, and co-editors Shirley B. Hill and Pat White, Pegasus has become bigger and better yet. Something new was added when Pegasus this year contained a complete section for alumnae news as well as a greatly increased literary section. Here's wishing next year's editors of Pegasus as complete a success as this year's.

CAMERA CLUB

Camera Club-Stronach basement has been in great demand this year as a result of the activities of the Camera Club. This club was headed by Roberta Fetnald, with Jane Palmer as Vice-President and Claire Tapley as Secretary-Treasurer.

With the aid of the expert Mr. Green the Club did its own developing and enlargements. The Camera Club has brought to the public many of the inside scenes of school life.

LE FLEUR DE-LYS

Le Fleur De-Lys, the French Club with Sally Wheeldon as President and Miss Bement as faculty advisor started the year off with a lavish banquet at which the guests sputtered French fluently. The club sponsored in chapel Mademoiselle Saleil who gave us a most enlightening talk on conditions in France. We hope our intellectual linguists will help in the post-war reconstruction of France! N'est-ce pas?
