Last WiU And
Testament
Of course all the graduating
seniors and sophomores can’t take
everything with them. In fact, there
are a few things they’re dying to
leave behind to the lingering frosh
11 juniors.
Ximocks and Virginia Lilly pass
on their perfect set-up over in East
Hock to two more Fayetteville
chicks, Carol Oates and Louise
Howell.
Lane n Sugar leave their Raleigh-
Annapolis jdane schedules to Caro
lyn Wise with hopes that she’ll make
trequent use of them.
Lucy McPherson leaves her rusty
alarm clock to any poor child who’s
ivilling to get up before the heat
comes clanking on just to study Eng
lish history. ^
Sara Walters and Lillian Whitner
1‘eluctantly withdraw their brilliant
carrot-tops from St. Mary’s roster of
t’edheads; however, they confiden
tially leave their places to “Eeds”
Hartsock, Smith, and Bueiiing.
And then there’s Mar-ah-got Ham-
hiond who is leaving Patti String-
tellow part of her drawl simply be
cause she can’t wait long enough for
all of it to catch up with her.
Helen Corbett nostalgically leaves
eleste Fountain the middle pay
hhone—to be used expressly for calls
to Carolina.
Betsy Duke leaves Pat Coulter her
ability to arrange her schedule so
that she’ll have lots of sunporch
time next year.
Franees Pearson leaves her aching
teet to any news-conscious Belle who
t'aiits to get her morning exercise
delivering the News and Observer.
And finally Martha Good leaves
20o Holt stocked with typewriters
and red pencils for Barbara Doar
and Ann Dorris to use the night
before the Belles goes to press.

Split personalities of seniors. In the top j/iefure Harriett Mardve, Sara
Walters, Kitty dampen, and Pat McQueen illustrate the dignified gradua
tion procession. Below, they can no longer retain their dignity.
Seniors, Sophomores Leave;
Pleasant Memories Remain
Well, it’s about that time of year
for all^St. Mary’s girls to get out
their Kleenex and shed a few tears
for all of the unfortunate Belles
who have to leave for Carolina. Any-
way, I am sure that each one of us
has something special that we shall
always remember about the sopho
mores and seniors who will soon be
saying their good-byes.
For example, take Harriett Mar-
dre and Sara Walters. Aren’t we
going to miss their performance in
May Day next year ? The program
will never be the same without their
dance. IFe’ll miss the calm coolness
of Margot Hammond too. Who in
the world will be able to slow us
down the way Margot does?
It’s a shame that Anne Marie
Miller and Libby Reese have to spoil
the percentage of St. Mary’s girls
at Chajtel Hill each week-end. Kov.'
when we think of missing Kitty
Campen, we wonder if we’ll miss
Kitty or George.
It looks as if those Tar Heels will
be looking at Kathy Whitfield’s
matching sweater and skirt outfits
next year instead of us Belles.
There are some fortunate Belles
at S.M.C. like Libbie Love, Martha
Good, and Julianne Boone who will
become “dish washing” alumnae.
(Could it be that we’ll have an in
crease in the members of the Grand
daughter’s Club?)
Carolina is certainly inheriting a
“crew” that we hate to give up.
That’s the Fayetteville gang. I
imagine that Kimocks, Huffines,
Virginia Lilly, and Mary Lee Breece
will reorganize their club in Chapel
Hill—probably at the Deke house.
Let’s survey the Sophomore class
now. You know, that class won’t
seem right without its “Judy Lig
gett” accent. I hope they’ll be able
to recover a normal tone of voice
when they come back to school next
fall.
One of the most colorful members
of the So])homore class is leaving—-
Betsy Duke with her Arizona sun
tan and bright red dress.
We all hate to see cute Patsy
Beams go and take all her “suu-
bcauis” with her. Thank goodness
she is leaving one ray—her room
mate Barry.
Everyone is hoping for as cute a
“paperboy” for next year as Frances
Pearson was this year. Too bad
that Frances wants to go way up
north next year.
I wonder if Agnes Scott ever had
a girl from Venezuela? If not,
they’ve got a lot to look forward to
’cause Doreen Greenfield is planning
to get down near those Georgia Tech
boys next year.
Even though all the Belles that
are leaving will be scattered near
and far, we all have full confidence
that they will be loyal to our school
and will come back to see us often.
