Rev. Mr. Gordon
Speaks on Alaska
Alaska missionary the Rev. Mr.
’William Gordon told Saint Mary’s
girls of his religious work there in
the chapel Sunday morning, Nov. 17.
Little did he dream that Saint
Mary’s students would partly finance
his mission work, he declared, when
he spoke here just before leaving
for his Alaska mission some time
ago. 3tlr. Gordon thanked the girls
for their contributions and told of
the good works tliis money had done.

Hair Troubles? See Artistic.
Talented “Mademoiselle Willie'’'
Have you noticed all the fancy
hair-do’s the girls on second floor
West Wing have been wearing?
When asked what hair stylist they
patronize, they answered in uni
son, “Willie.”
“Willie,” it seems, is not the
star hairdresser of the Elite
Beauty Salon. “He” is Mary
Matheson Williamson of Pine
Apple, Ala., ivho loves to fix peo-
jile’s liair.
Her first customer was her
roommate, Marger^^ CareA’, Or
lando, Fla. She was closely fol
lowed b,A’ Eleanor Pollard, Ashe
ville, and Eleanor Hope Newell,
Orlando, Fla. These three were
given bangs, but not all alike, for
that would cramp illir s st\’le.
• Several daj's later, Jeannette
Dongbertv’, Coronado, Calif., ap
peared with a verj' original hair
do. Her hair was pulled tightl.v
back and tied high on her head
with a black ribbon. The ends
were curled under and left liang-
ing down the back of her head.
That same day Barbara Corpen-
ing, Granite Falls, had a new hair
do, too; her hair was pulled up
on top of her head and twisted
into a roll.
When asked wh.v she liked to
fix people’s hair, “Willie” an
swered, “Since I can never seem
to fix nn’ own hair to suit me, I
find someone Avho can wear the
st.vle 1 dream up and fix it for
her.”
If j'on’re tired of fixing \mnr
hair the same old way, go up to
second floor West Wing and let
“Willie” do something about it.
A'on’ll be sure of liaving a faiic.v
new hair style—and a large inter
ested audience.

In Midnight Walk
Betsy Blundon, Charleston, W.
Va.; Katherine Clark, Lynchburg,
Va.; Cynthia McCaw, Bristol, R. I.;
Margaret Norfleet, Jackson; and
Margaret Leo Payne, Newport
News, Va., were tapped members of
the Circle at an impressive ceremony
Monday night, Nov. 25, when the
Circle “walked” at midnight.
Martha Conger, Edenton, presi
dent of the Circle, led the j)rocession
into the open area between West
Wing, Holt Hall, and the dining
room. Following her were the three
last year’s members, Elizabeth “Lid-
dy Bett” Myatt, Goldsboro; Peggy
Swindell, Washington; and Jean
Roberts, Durham. These old mem-
hers brought the new' members out
of hiding and placed them in the
group. Each member had her can
dle ht from the torch Martha Conger
held. ”
After the solemn service old and
new members gathered in the Hut
for an informal party.
