C., JANUARY 17, 1964 NUMBER 6 “Studies Serve For Ability;” On Examinations I Welcome Back Mrs. by Treva Mitchell The mother hen has come back to the brood. That is to say that Mrs. Alma Dellinger is back at Brevard College, where she has resuimed her duties as Adviser to Women. Mrs. Dellinger, fondly known by the girls who reside at Bre vard College as Mrs. “D”, failed to “sign in” on January 2, when the students returned from the Christmas vacation. She took some time off in order to recover from an eye operation which she had during the holidays. The operation was one in a ser ies of four. It involved a skin graft on the eyelid, and was more serious than the first three, which Mrs. Dellinger has had in the past few years. She was in Chartotte’s Presbyterian Hospital from December 16 until Christ mas Eve Day, a total of nine days. Fortunately, Mrs. D. was released from the hospital in time to spend Christmas Day with her three daughters, her son, and their families in Lin- co-lnton, N. C. As for her operation, Mrs. “D” has this to say: “Contrary to what some may think, the opera tion did not in any way affect my vision”. Remember, girls, she can still see you with 20-20 vision.
