Page four THE TWIG November 16, 1956 Glowing Reports Arrive From Travelers Abroad Our returning girls have no doubt noticed that several familiar faces are missing this year from Meredith. We have two “absentees” who are sojourning in faraway lands. Miss Loyce White, formerly with Mere dith’s art department, is at the pres ent studying in romantic Florence, Italy. During the year or so that she will reside in Italy, Miss White plans to visit historic Rome and other places of interest in that fascinating country. Having chosen Florence, the cradle of Renaissance art, be cause of its stimulating atmosphere, she is primarily concentrating her study upon realistic painting of figures, landscapes and portraits. Anyone interested in corresponding with Miss White may write her in care of General Delivery, American Express, Florence, Italy. Another traveler in a foreign land is our former house director, Mrs. John B. Mayes. She has returned to the Sorbonne in Paris, France, where she received a portion of her education. Mrs. Mayes, planning to remain in Paris until next sum mer, is visiting the family with whom she hved when she was a student. In a recent letter to Miss Sally Holland, English instructor at Meredith, Mrs. Mayes commented, “I am really enjoying French dishes and service. We never get up before 9:00 in the morning — we have our petit dejeuner served in the bedroom. I have revisited many of the interesting places in Paris and enjoy them as much or more than when I was a student at the Sorbonne.” Among the sights she has visited are the Grand Palais featuring a display of automobiles from various countries, and the Opera, which has just undergone expensive renovation. She also stated that the French, who love en tertainment of various sorts, keep the movies, theaters and opera houses filled to capacity. Mrs. Behind the Scenes . . . We Recognize Betsy Lane Peeking behind the scenes, we come face to face with a lovely junior, Betsy Lane. Majoring in elementary education, Betsy has proved herself an admirable mem ber of the Meredith “family.” At present she is hall proctor of third Stringfield, a member of the Stu dent Government Council, a so prano in the Chorus, program chair man of the junior “Stunt,” and a member of the Oak Leaves staff. An excellent student, Betsy was chosen as a freshman counselor last year and has been on the Dean’s List several times in her college career. Incidentally, pretty Betsy has captured such titles as “Miss Randolph County” (she was one of the top ten finalists for “Miss North Carolina” in 1955!) and sponsor and sweetheart of Sigma Phi Epsi lon fraternity at State College. The junior class is proud to present her as one of its representatives in Meredith’s May Court this year. Turning ta the lighter side of Betsy’s busy life, an eavesdropper (or reporter) might catch Betsy in forming someone, “You are about as smart as a bush!” Don’t let this get around, but . . . she does toe exercises in bed and occasionally snores (lightly) in her sleep! She is known for her neat, perfectly groomed hair and spends much time on keeping her appearance “yummy.” P.S. Would Peanut ever get to class on time without the able as sistance of her suitemate?
