will play for the annual Freshman-

Mickey Westmoreland’s first engage
ment for a Saint Mary’s dance.
Evelyn Oettinger, chairman of the
decorations committee, announced
that the plans for the Mardi Gras
theme have been completed. The

BELLES as “Miss Tardy,” the girl
who is always late, or nearly always
anyway.
Alice, a pretty happy-go-lucky
sophomore from Florence, S. C., is
feature editor of the BELIjES (a
result of her originality), a member
of the “Y”, the Doctors’ Daughters
Club, and the Bulletin staff.
Maybe Alice is slow getting places,
but this is no sign that she is a slow
poke in other respects. She is a
whiz at bridge and may often be
seen perched on the floor of her room
on third West Wing bidding game
and at the same time keeping her
friends entertained with her witty
conversation.
Close runner-up in the election
was Frances Drane, all of which
proves further that even the best
of the Belles have their weaknesses!
