Surprised and excited, we welcomeci: Patsy., Jones, Ann fehook, Louise Jordan, Sylvia Cullum, Boris. Goerch, Mary Anne Koonce, Alexa McCall, Sallie MacNider, and Mrs. Willis Farmer (Metta Philips). During the party we received a tele gram from Alary Louise Eiddick, the President of Saint Mary’s Student Body last year, wishing a Merry Christ mas to everyone, and her regrets because she was unable to be here with us. News from the holidays! The marriage of Miss Betty Scott, Graham, N. C., to Mr. William McKensie, Kockingham, N. C., took place at her home in Graham on the afternoon of December 27. Miss Tootsie Martin was the maid-of-hoiior, and Alisses Clara Bond Ander son and Virginia Worth acted as two of the bridesmaids. Miss Letty Gaither was also present. Congratulations to Kay Fleming! Kay, who gradu ated from Saint Mary’s in ’37 and who is now a Senior at Carolina, has recently made the Who s Who for outstanding college students. On January 3, Ann Lynch, ’38, and Mildred Pitten- ger ’37, were here for a short visit. While here, Ann, who was quite an outstanding art student last year, posed for one of Miss Harris’ afternoon classes. Eegret- tully, the class will have to finish without their model. Becky Norman and Mary Galt Williamson stopped by on January 4, just before returning to school after the holidays (Eandolph-Macon). Lib Parham, ’37, who has been visiting her uncle in Kaleigh, came out to Saint Alary’s January 5. Saturday night, January 7, Olive Cruikshank arrived from Carolina to spend the week-end with her mother. She brought as her guests Connie Thigpen, Tinger Virginia Bower, ’37, and two other friends. TOWN GIRLS GAB Effects of the holidays have worn off and the day students are back at school, more anxious than ever to begin studying for those semester exams which take place in a few weeks. It’s going to be difficult to settle down for the academic grind after loafing for a while. About the first Saint Mary’s extra-curricular activity which the town girls participated in was the final play off between the Sigma’s and AIu s for the kickball tournament. We saw Ann Christian, who, by the way, is certainly good for catching files, Dixie French, Emily Schenck, Hixie Davis, Carol Swart and Sue Berry. From scattered remarks heard around the day stu dent’s room, there will be many of the local gals out for basketball practice. Miss Harvey is mighty popular with the girls and she is going to see a lot ot them this year. Aliss Davis sent the day students a very nice note, thanking them for the gift for Christmas. She has been awfully thoughtful about inviting the town girls to lunch and all, so that they might get better ac quainted with the boarders. We’re proud of Sheppy Quintard for her recent ad mission to the Order of the Circle. The most out standing girls of the school are always members of this organization and for one of our Kaleigh girls to receive an invitation, it’s really quite an honor. Congratula tions, Sheppy!
