Nancy Walker Will Reign As May Queen
Nollner Morrissett Is To
Be the Maid Of Honor
Practicing And
Teaching Keep
Beauties Busy
Having graced the May Dell for
three years, Nancy Walker will
reign this year as the Queen of
the May.
Nancy is a tall graceful brunette
with sparkling green eyes. She
charms everyone with her soft
lyrical voice and bright smile
Nancy is a typical Southern belle.
Nancy is capable of entertaining
her friends not only with her
musical ability but also with her
subtle wit.
A girl who experiences very in
teresting summers, Nancy will tell
you about her summer in Germany
where she lived with a German
family or about her summer study
ng at the University of Michigan
She is not only a beauty queen
but also a photographer. It is not
unusual to see Nancy carrying
camera over her shoulder. And
you will probably find her shooting
pictures of her friends on the May
Court rather than up on the hill
posing with the other girls.
