AXCJKIiS RKTURX The light dims, the mist swirls and 1 am whizzed on through the past to the arrival at school. 1 gaze upon Sue Joyner, not mind ing her return trip to Haleigh at all witii the village boys keeping the roads burning ’tween Wilson and Haleigh; Each and Kitty hav ing a rare (or a rich?) bus ride; Ann AVhitenejy arriving "'itly a fresh new triangle; Fairfax Smith loaded down with a fur coat ami a huge picture' of Him; Ann Lucas arriving from Georgia and in love; Louise Slagel and Lyn flen- nings both wearing corsages as thev climb off the train from Florida; Betty Ann Yowell walk ing into school with her head in the clouds and a huge Fishburne ring from a Carolina Kappa Sig; Nannie Moore with -1 camellias Sunday night and a dozen red roses arriving for her Monday morning! The past rolls on in my mystic ball. 1 see IMarion Turner giving a little fraternity boy out at State ([uite a thrill. The wec'k-end of the 10th rolls by with Nancy going on a Pika picnic and ISutch, Tut. Huth, Cam]) on a Ei'te iiicnic. Peggy is dating another Kappa Sig, and on the 10th ot Januar.v 1 see Book’.s mother visiting -lo Howell. THR I'RRSKXT! jMy cr.vstal ball takes me to the present, to what is now happen ing, pass by hours, days , . , the ball becomes blurred, slowly the mist clears and 1 see the pres ent. . . . llmmmmm, what are these young ladies—the latest pin up ■^i,.l,,__Jane Gower, Huth Clark, Becky Smith, and Eleanor Hope Newell; Jo Howell seems to be working hard. She’s studying her “Book” s in free periods and every night: What is appearing.’ A beautiful watch worn by Waddel. Bickie wants her to know he misses her all the time. Also two good looking men come into sight. Ah-h-h-h-h, oim is Mike sitting on Sue Stowers dresser and the other A1 on Vee’s dresser. I notice Geni' Iliiu's dat ing a Kappa Sig, who comes for her on a motor scooter. Crvstal ball, are you playing tricks? 1 see Molly Williams but she s ])inued to an old shoe! I glance at Barbai'a Miller. . . . She’s very perplexed trying to decide bc'- tweeu her lovers. 1 notice .Mary McNoughton iiondering over something. Tell me, what is her thought? She’s wondering why she didn’t go a little closer to LSII during the holidays. Must be some attraction there. A West Pointer comes into view and Con nie Newton with him. She must be having an exciting aff'air with that cadet. 1 see a telephone and Ijeah Higs- bee. She’s receiving beaucoui) calls from State. Betty McAllister and Charlotte Holmes appear still infatuated over new flames. My ball shows four high school^ rings hanging on four fingers of four girls—Martha Wallace, ileredith Plant, Mary DuBose, and Mary Giles Stewart. Three pictures into the light owned l),v Joan Bailey. A gross amount for one haulAnd my cr.vstal informs me that Ruth Saunders, sitting there, is hojiing that Arthur will be com ing around as often as ever. No more orange and black for Grace Jones. . '. . the cadets of Green Hrier Military Academy have taken Woodberi'.v’s jilace. Also, Jo Gaither’s alliance is changed from Carolina to (Temson, VISIOX.S ’X VISUIXS Bee Douglas appears declaring there’s no ])lace like P,C.: Ann Burnette thinks Memphis and Ha leigh are too far ajiart; Leila Du- Pree is “thick with Dick”; Ann Bradley is circulating again after a “long-])eriod relationship” down Georgia wa.v; S.vlvia Newson is evah heard singing “We’ll all go down a . . . on the Ih'ta House!” Sandy Buck’s mail bag suffers no dust—thanks to old lovers, al- thongh the lu'w one rates more thought; Beverl.v Hra.v has a big intei'cst in Chai)cl Hill, while Jo Ann Pinner sa.vs lov(‘ life in Chapel Hill and Princeton are the last words; Betsy ,Iones is Hash ing a bc'autifnl new diamond on the third finger right hand; Hixey is firml.N' coindnced that .Norfolk is the |)lace; a certain blue Pon tiac is Pegg.v Williams’ favorite mode of trans])ortation with the lights on again; Beth Toy can’t make uj) her mind; Jean Hoggaril is feeling blue after the wonder ful holidays; Rosalind Senseney .just can’t say “no” to two certain i)().vs; Hetsy Evans is still unable to find love contagious; Hetty Ander.son gets excited every time the mail comes in: iUar.v Ann Montfort is still heart whisi)ei-ing that little word “Teetiepie’’; Rose Taylor has a third love. TIIIO Rl'TrRK?'.’! Crystal ball, is anything excited predicted for the future? 'rake me on and let me se,' the high lights. 1 gaze slowl.v as time ]>asses and then 1 see the Future! Nancy Holland a|)pears dating Hilly; Catherine Thomas, Hwin- son, and J\1 isenlu'imer I see in a church—at St rick’s wedding. I glance at -PiOO and notice Kirk patrick and Mary Wagner i)re- senting a jiicture from their room to the animals. Harhara Schu- macker comes iido sight giving Pi'iinsylvania hack to Fred War ing to settle for .\. C. State. Exam holida.vs—and 1 notice Edith Allison in Hlowing Rock, and iMolly Williams in Rocky Mount, i)cr usual.
