Say, aren't you Karen Strom: the same Karen Strom who is in National Honor society, has received a Brotherhood award, has been on Student council for two years, class council for three years, and has been a junior and senior leader? You sure keep yourself busy! You mean you have also worked as Prom chairman for two years, and you've been president of your youth group for three years!
Now what's this I hear about you having two different colors of hair? Oh, I see. It's either blond or purple, depending on your mood. Your height of five feet seven inches and your blue eyes, however, remain the same.
I hear you enjoy art, reading, and‑What! . . . making toilet paper cakes.
How about telling us your favorite expression. Umm, "My toenails itch."
You say you hate porches, unfriendly camels, and people who mangle cupcakes and save the frosting till last.
Lois Wright '63, tells me that you are actually a very sane and serious girl. I know you would like to attend Kalamazoo college and then go on to do social work. Sounds interesting. You say you also taught Bible school at Casa central to Negroes, Puerto Ricans, and Southern Whites.

Is it true, Karen, that you have lumpy toes and that you talk all the time? Oh, I'm sorry, didn't want that to get out.
How do you think Maine West can be improved?
"I think it's great the way it is. . .
Karen, a few stories are circulating concerning you that should be cleared up. For example, how about the time your parents went out of town and a sign was posted in front of your house reading:
YMCA
Rooms for Rent
And how about the time you decided to test the thickness of cafeteria malts by turning them up‑side‑down to see if they would spill out. What happened? Oh, they spilled out!
Or what about the time you were going 65 m.p.h. down the expressway, and the rubber started to peel off your tire?
Now, Karen, these stories can't possibly be true. Are they? I see, it was John Schafer '63, who put the sign in front of your house.
What year did you like best in high school? You are enjoying your senior year because you have a real sense of belonging.
Well, Karen, I really enjoyed talking to you.
Yes, I'll be sure to thank Dave Grogan '63, for his uncanny comments during this interview.
