ISABELLA BEVERIDGE
After spending her first two years at Victoria
College where she won a scholarship in French—
L’Alliance Francaise — come to Vancouver in
search of higher learning, which she found by taking
an Honours Course in Latin. Consequently, she is
an enthusiastic member of the Classics Club and has
given several interesting papers at its meetings. Ella
intends to return to Varsity next year for Education.
HERMAN DERICK BISCHOFF
Herman came to B.C. in 1927 with McGill
matriculation. In his Freshman year, he was man
ager of the Junior Soccer team; in his second, he was
treasurer of La Canadienne; in his third, its president;
in his fourth, vice-president of the German Club.
In his spare time he plays chess, and is also an ardent
Grass Hockey player. In his Varsity career he
sprcializes in modern languages.
EDITH PHYLLIS BICKFORD
Edith’s versatility is shown by her many and
varied courses. Second year found her in the Botany
lab., while in third year her favourite subject was
French. However, German, English and Philosophy,
have claimed her attention as a senior. Even this
heavy course weighs lightly on her shoulders, for
Edith spends the odd hour at afternoon teas and
bridges. Next year Normal will be graced by the
presence of this budding teacher,
PETER THOMAS BLACK
A young man of many and varied abilities is
our Peter, for, this Chemistry Honour Student and
budding bacteriologist speaks German with remark
able fluency and has been heard to hold forth in
French. Of course, he is a member of L’Alliance
Francaise and of the Chemistry Society (where he
displays a Borgia-like enthusiasm for poisons.) He
hopes to do post-grad work at an eastern University,
and we are sure that this peppy youth who reduces
his friends to a state of eulogizing him in verse, will
continue to be both popular and successful.
VERNA MARGUERITE BOLTON
So much of Verna’s time is occupied in writing
History essays, that it might be concluded it is her
favourite form of punishment. In her last year she
served on the class executive, and, as a member of
the Valedictory Committee, contributed much time
and effort to cisc undertaking, positively gloating over
the collection. Verna’s position behind the loan desk
leads us to believe she will be taking a Library course,
if she can overcome the temptation to return for
Education.
