1, Caroline Kuhn, leave rny copy of '*1001

I. Ann Butterfield, leave my ‘‘blind dates” to

probably need them.

trouble to any frosh who doesn’t want to graduate

aspiring to crew cuts.

1, Nancy Lee, leave my “attitude” to anyone
who wishes it.
I, Mary Liesman, leave my reliable chauffeur

I, Betty Ann Coats, leave open windows to all
other fresh-air fiends; my Stan Kenton records

with the four-wheel personality—(jalopy and
all), to Audrey Welch.

1, Diane Reed, leave my expression "I’m lost”
in Chem Class, and my ability to send the class

I. June Dunbar, leave my knack of getting home­

running, terrified, from the lab to Cynthia Coats
and to Harry, my love of car mechanics.

Clancy, my infatuation for “The Forbidden
City.”

Gilbert.

Elwcll, in hopes that she will use them to good
advantage.

L Jackie I homas, leave my passion for shoes to
Janet Wineberg and Jackie Howard.

I,Ellen Huddleson, leave my psychic and hyp­
notic powers to all potential psychiatrists.

I, Martha Stearns, leave all my connections with

future Delphic Staff.

anyone who is almost as adept at creeping around
deserted dormitory halls as I am.

I, Floy' Louise Van Groenewald, leave my ex­
troverted personality, loud voice, and “rickie-tickie”
to Susan Chandler.

DELPHIC CUP POETRY AWARD WINNER 1951
Lines inspired by "Will O' The Wisp"
Swift through the mesh of the jungle
Where the kiss of the sun can not fall
Weird by the dark-depthed water
Echoes the Marsh Nymph’s call

i

Far up the curve of the gray cliff
Beyond the ridge of the hill
She calls and she bids you to follow
Follow and dance to her will
Beguiling, she glides through the deep-wood
A beckoning wraith in flight
A demon with the grace of an angel
A seductive shadow of night
Slim arms stretching out in the sunrise
Witch eyes like burnt amber jewels
Flame hair blazing out in the fleet winds
The touch of her body, stream cool
Take heed, beware or her golden web
She’ll bend you to lifeless clay
The magnetic voodoo of her winsome call
Can lure your soul away
Deny the spell of her sensuous form
It’s haunting pleasures you’ll never know
The tempting perfume of magic lips
Inflame desire, but—don’t go!
Death and madness await her embrace
She’ll send your soul into hell
She’s none but the spawn of the devil
A tale no man lives to tell

;

She’ll leave you to waste in the marshland
And you’ll burn for the touch of her hand
With your mind half-crazed you will wander
Her mocking laughter, a brand
You’ll wander till flesh won’t hold you
Till you plunge in swampy mire
Till the vampires of the night come to claim you
To burn in the devil’s fire
Swift through the mesh of the jungle
Where the sun can not fall
Weird by the dark-depthed water
Echoes the Marsh Nymph's call

              <text>This is an OES yearbook from 1951. The yearbooks were published annually after 1925. Yearbooks from 1921-1968 were known as The Delphic and were created by St. Helen's Hall students attending in their high school years. St. Helen's Hall was an all-girls school that pre-dated Oregon Episcopal School. In 1969, the yearbook evolved into The Legend-Delphic with the addition of Bishop Dagwell Hall and male student attendees. After 1986 the yearbook branding begins to singularly list "OES" with a few volumes referencing "The Delphic" or "The Legend Delphic". Yearbooks helped to chronicle the school year's events and activities, in addition to listing each student and staff member.</text>
