Clark Represents St* Mary^s
at Wilmington
ilmington was the scene of
activity during tlie Azalea
’t'-stival. St. INlary’s was well rep-
^’-’5‘cnted by many girls and our
' H’y (iuecn Caroline Clark.
•p'“'‘'ii’oline left St. Mary’s on
’ hiirsday night and was driven to
’hiiington by her father. A din-
Party was given on Thursday
,'slit in honor of the queens, and
'ijterwards the girls were presented
‘p 11 fireworks display. After this
j^lilay a dance at the Cape Fear
otol was given for the girls and
^‘‘^'ii- dates.
On Friday the May Queens were
'Utertained ;it an art show and
‘ 'lorwards at a luncheon at Plea
sant Oaks Plantation. Dinner was
served on Friday night at Cape
Fear Club. A program was given
that night by the girls, The-v all
wore dresses the colors of azaleas,
and each in turn made her bow to
the audience.
On Saturday morning the Aza
lea P'estival Parade was held. Af
terwards a luncheon was held at
the Marina. On Saturday night the
coronation Pageant and dance w.as
held at which time ^liss Linda
Christian was crowned Queen.
Caroline stated that it " as one
of the best times of her life and that
she will never forget it.
At'itli the return of suntanned
girls from vacation, spring was
ushered in at St. Mary’s in a flur
ry of madras dresses, jileated
skirts, and straw hats. Arriving at
school with fabulous reports of a
wonderful week in Bermuda were
.Jackie Baublitz, Susan Sawyer,
Pat Exum, Erwin Parrott, Lou
Ficklen, Em Howell, Daphne Con
nelly, and Madge Gregory.
Bronzed and estatic, these girls
could not talk enough about the
.lazz Festival, the bicycling, and
those tremendous Williams boys.
The usual after-vacation slump
did not prevail here at St. Clary’s
because of the fabulous events
jilanned for the forth-coming week
ends.
Leaving the “dear old camiii’’
for various points down South were
several St. Mary’s girls for the
annual blast at the Azalea Festi
val and the wonderful Camden
Races — the Camden Cup. Seen
watching the races and attending
various parties were Melinda IMcs-
ser, Florie IMcLeod, Harriet Hous
ton, .Judee IMetcalfe, IMartha White
and Margaret IMidgette. Several
St. yJary’s alumnae were also
seen having a marvelous time.
Among them were Octavia Phil-
Spring Vacation
Finally Arrived
At a time of sheer exhaustion
and near collapse — spring vaca
tion— most of the St. Clary’s girls
returned limply to their homes for
much-needed rest. There were, of
course, those more adventurous
girls who sought nerj' places of di
version, the most iiopular being the
sunny situations of Florida and
Bermuda.
The Florida grouj) found Alolly
Cooj)er spending her idle hours in
Fort Lauderdale with her family.
Barbara Brittain, in IMiami, man
aged visits to .Joanne Rochow’s
where Lou Uzzle and Ann Oster-
man spent their vacation rescuing
Molly. Susan Morrison, who has
finally surrendered Cuba to Cas
tro, is now living in Coral Gables;
she managed to soak uj) the sun
down there. Carter iMcAlister
comi)leted this group and refused
to return with them (the scode).
They all had a lazy nine days fill
ed with sun shows and occasional
fishing.
Although the liermuda weather
didn’t fulfill all expectations it
was, nonetheless, a relaxing vaca
tion. IMadge Gregory, Erwin Par
rott, and Em Howell managed to
take advantage of that few good
days of sun while Daphne Connelly,
Lou Ficklen, .Jackie Baublitz and
Susan Sawyer dictn’t seem to mind
the attentions of the Williams
boys. Our girls seemed to take
right over from the Green Moun
tain contingent and Pat Exum,
IMary INJoore and Vickie Chubb
didnfl hesitate to aid in that con-
spiracy. They all enjoyed the Esso
Steel IJand and the Talbot Broth
ers, and no one suffered any ill ef
fects from the boat trips or motor
bike mishaps.
lips, Sally Blackmon, and Rett
Weston.
On this same week end many of
our St. Mary’s girls were at
Wrightsville and CJarolina Beach
on various housejiarties. From all
rei)orts the week end was great
and Caroline Clark, our May
Queen, looked lovely in the Festi
val jiarade and festivities. Coming
back to school on Sunday night,
tired, tanned, and happy were
Amelia Yancey, Mary Chiles, Mol-
lie Cooper, Betsy Eagles, ,Jane
Tarlton, Sallie Tull, Sandra Cobb,
Phiney Hunt, Sharon Cates, Susan
Burger, and Frankie Stutts.
Traveling a little farther north
for just as fabulous an excursion
are Mollie Dewey, Susan Fleming,
Lou Uzzel, Diane Blanton, Fan
Y'ilson, .Jackie Polk, Carey Kel-
1am, .Jane Wooten, Kay Sliipman,
Mary Shephard, Lou Pittman, Nan
Danieron and Betsy Dunn. After
much packing and re-packing of
the lovely ball gowns, picture hats,
parasols, and fans, these girls left
today for the annual KA Old South
Ball which is being held in Rich
mond this year.
That’s all for this year from us,
girls! Good luck to the new society
editor.
Bermuda Trip
Fulfilled All
Expectations
Perhajis the most excited girls
in school on that fateful Saturday
that Si)ring Vacation began were
the eight who were leaving for
Bermuda. Daphne Connelly, Em
liowell, .Jackie Baublitz, Susan
Sawyer, IMadge Gregory, Lou Fick
len, Erwin Parrott, and Pat Exum,
accompanied by IMrs. William
Duncan, left St. Mary’s at 4:15
for Selma on the first leg of the
tri]). The train trii) left much to
be desired (esjiecially sleej)), but
when they reached New York ear
ly Sunday morning they were too
thrilled with the prospect of Ber
muda to worry about the lack of
sleep.
The connections all made with
time to spare, the nine boarded
their plane at 10:30 that morning
for “no-man’s land” (the island as
described quite teasingly by the
ticket clerk). The flight was beau
tiful, and' they managed to conceal
their fears with excitement and to
survive the bumiis with bonamine.
There was no doubt in their mind
when they actually drew near the
island. The water instantly be
came a brilliant aqua, and with the
pink coral visible underneath it
was a breathtaking sight. “Go’s”
and “ah s” were uttered, constant
ly as the plane droptied and final
ly landed in “paradise.” As the
voyagers stepped off the plane in
to the damp, warm air, they had
so many bags, cameras, and bund-
Ics of needless belongings' that it
seemed forever before they ivot
through customs and plunged into
the waiting fun.
