Father Is in the Army Freshman Sees the World Born in China, She Knows the Orient, Panama, U.S. Freshman Patricia Fflerbert is an army girl, the daughter of Major and Mrs. George F. Herbert of the Sixth Corps Area. Miss Herbert was born in China, and arrived in Chicago by way of Japan, Montana, Kansas, New York, Indiana, and the Panama Canal. When she was three, her parents were transferred from China to Oregon, so her memories of Tientsin are few. She started grade school in Montana, and fin ished the eighth grade in Fort Leaven worth, Kansas. From Fort Leavenworth she went to Harrison, Indiana, and was finally a high school senior at New Trier in VVinnetka. Of all places she has seen, Miss Her bert best remembers the Panama Canal. Some day she would like to pass through (iatuii Lake again, just at sunset, and see the sun vanish over the tropical bills and the quiet water. She thinks she might get her directions straight then, and go through the locks from south to north, as most people do, instead of from west to east. The actual machinery was fascinating, not to men tion the native venders with their odd wares. Miss Herbert's interests extend to sing ing (she's in the Glee club), swimming (she aspires to the Terrapin club), and horseback riding, (remember the army ). She likes to write poetry and short stor ies, and she hopes to graduate from her piano to the big organ.
