SOMETHING NEW
CAMPUS NOTES
Here are a few clots and dashes
of’rom among our new girls,
f Quite a few families have more
athan one representative here at
1 daint Mary’s School. Sally Dickey
i. ls s sister to Jane and Mary. “Pris”
gjPord has red hair like her sis,
j, ]jMancy, and seems to have per-
^>onality-plus. Undoubtedly “Hon-
tas” Whitaker will follow Har
riett’s lead, or probably make a
*®Voad of her own. Of course, there
'is a little difference between
J'Betty Clark and her sister Kath-
Perine, but no one can tell what
t, will come forth. “Lizzie” Hancock
. will carry on in Lucy’s footsteps
bhs to personality and likeableness.
A communique from New York
^®^tells us that “Marty” Hinkle’s
•dancing toes will some day be-
'come famous if she continues her
J'l
lee
summer studies.
Jean Strickland’s rendition of
The Old Apple Tree” promises to
tte„
rf
be somewhat famous on the
campus.
The looks-alikes department—
Tumpie” Hudson and Dale
j|Creech; Caroline Camp and Jean
iRiekenbacker (also, Betsy Thomp-
^j.son); Jane Lowe and “Ditty”
^ Robinson; Betsy Siler and Mary
jPinekney.
Jie “Maggie” Hudson, “C a m a”
p Clarkson, and Margaret Caldwell
,,,j!seem to have plenty of contacts
^at State already.
' In cruising around the halls we
at, heard that Holly Beck may well
be a future backbone of the publi-
f( cations staff. She volunteered to
0^ 2,n article. Hooray for Holly!
c! “Liddy Bet” Myatt and Leah
gj I Loyd like to talk, they say.
otf Gene Hines found a new cousin
un’ she’d never seen before and
P they’re already getting their mail
lb mixed.
Damaris Thornton is not ex-
actly new. This is her third year,
but she stayed home last year.
These girls came a long way.
“Gingie,” who looks like Kate
P- Broadfoot, hails from Baton
Rouge, La. Martha Dean came in
from Houston, Texas. Barbara
’ . White calls Los Gatos, California,
I” home.
“Doolie” Baltzell and “Doolie”
Ashburn may have a little trouble
with their duplicate nicknames,
q Sarah Covington is the little
gal with a voice like “Baby” Ba-
^ I call Bogart.
p! Ruby Leigh Williams has a
brother, Frank, who has already
[I made several conqnests among the
^.1 Saint Mary’s old girls.
Lib Couch was a Playmaker
f this summer, and from all we
{( hear, she really knows the Pre-
II flights!

Sophomore Suzie
Here we all are back again, just
like last year, ’eept for some
strange reason everything seems
a little different. I guess it’s cause
we’re THE SENIORS. By the
way, I might explain, for the sake
of those Avho aren’t familiar Avith
me and my enlightening column,
that Sophomore Suzie is really a
senior here though she’d be a
sophomore someAvhere else if she
Avasn’t a senior here. Noav Ave
liaA'e that straight.
Did you see Iioav Avistfully the
seniors Avatched all those hoards
of juniors AAuth dates last Aveek-
end? Oh Avell, girls, remember,
Ave Avere young once ourselves.
HoAvever there are those among
us Avho Avon’t say die. For in
stance, I noticed that Margo Mai--
tin did most of her marshaling
Avith one eye directed on a very
attractiA'e portion of the Air Corps
Avho Avaited patiently in the back.
I really have to do something
Avith my hair. Just Avearing it the
usual AA'ay practically classes oue
as juvenile these days, but mine
just Avon’t sit up in those little
round things. I ahvays look re
motely like a giraffe-neck Avoman
I saw once. Betty GoodAvyn can
really set the styles. ’Tain’t fair,
though, ’cause, she’s the only one
that can ever wear them.
_ I guess you know about the ques
tion. The question these days is
asked in a tense demanding voice,
usually accompanied by a very ac
cusing look. The question: “How
much have you read in The Iliad?’’
If you answer Avith a vague, The
Iliad?, your questioner smiles pity
ingly and is very happy, but, if you
slmuld by some quirk of fate say.
Oh, 70 or 80 pages,” you are natur
ally not accepted any more. I Avon-
der if Mr. Moore feels powerful
Avith all of our 49 sweet young lives
resting in his power. Oh well, we
can always get Spot to ask him
questions on class and drive him to
. . . Avho knows?
I just can’t wait ’til the Girl
Break Saturday night. I’m not as
excited as Sue Thomas though.
HE’S coming, and he’s a brdnd ncAA^
Ensign. Charlotte’s awful hopeful
too. In fact, a mad exchange of
letters this week has practically
guaranteed plenty of material for us
to AA'ork on.
But noAv I’m sleepy, so I’ll Avater
my potted plants, brush my teeth,
and go to bed. Ain’t routine won
derful ?
