What the yearbook said

In spare moments Mary can usually be found knitting — that is, when she isn't working on a new oration for the Speakers' Bureau. Possessing a subtle sen.se of humor, she is the talented author of innumerable literary masterpieces, humorous and otherwise. Although her ambition is to be a ship's librarian, it would not be surprising if, some day, she were to become an author herself. Certainly anyone who has read one of the great Fischer masterpieces will agree, and, after she has majored in English at Wheaton — well, who knows?
