Fitter Platter
By Helen Bell .Tones
Did you know that you can
hccoine a “diddler” with very little
effort? It takes a lot of work to
hecoine the kind of diddler which is
h well-known pianist. The group
of diddlers are: the “I Hate fo
Bractice” group, the “Play by Ear”
St'ouj), the “Annoy Piano Teachers”
gt’ouj), the “Genuine Musicians-
'vho-have-practiced-too-long-and-
oi^‘'.^^’y^^S-to-relax” group, and the
child Prodigy” group. To become a
iiiember of the “I Hate to Practice”
group, one has to take piano lessons
in order for his teacher to give him
pieces he doesn’t like. The hated
pieces are jiurposely forgotten in
foe in-actice hours, and the time is
pleasantly whiled away by diddling.
Beojile in the “Play by Ear”
grouj) are those who never had a
piano lesson in their life and taught
leniselves to play. What they non-
'alantly dash off sounds exactly
ike diddling. The “Annoy Piano
eachers” grouji is, unfortunately,
rather disagreeable one and is
Recommended only for people who
'ant to make mortal enemies of
i'Cir piano teachers. (Piano
eachers, as everyone knows, hate
Oi‘ their pupils to diddle on the
Plano while they are talking.) The
Genuine Musicians” group
'Ri'Plains itself; therefore, we shall
now come to the “Child Prodigy”
Siouj). An examjile of the members
nf this group is little Sallie. When
’ allio starts diddling on the jhano
°i the first time, her mother, who
’nows nothing about music,
'dualizes a hidden talent budding
her darling. She calls up the
^ocal j)iano teacher, and Sallie
piano lessons. She continues
® rliddle in the following years.
ny I jjj conclusion that if one
tir-
Alwa.vs beard : always!

SMS Is Representedv
At Old South Ball
The Old South Ball in Charlotte
certainly revealed the St. Mary’s
girls’ tradition as far as being
apiirojiriately dressed was con
cerned. Each representative looked
as if she had just stepped from a
picture book.
Among the girls representing St.
Clary’s were Bibi Walker. Her
dress was bouffant and white
embroidered organdy. Highlighting
the dress were two large bustles.
Bibi also wore a large, white
j)icture hat, and carried a ruffled
parasol in the true ante-bellum
stvlc.
Old South, Germans, Spring Fol
lies, etc., etc., etc., are all past.
What on earth will there be to do
until June 3rd? Just sit tight for
awhile, and maybe something will
turn up.
More congratulations are in store
. . . Anne Peeler is pinned and Nan
Bailey is “going steady.” Anne is
])inned to a student at Davidson,
and Nan has a Kinston High School
ring from “a certain SAE” at State!
^ Last Saturday night was quiet
since both State and Carolina were,
for the most part, partying at
various beaches. The belles either
spent a long night sitting, or they
flicked it with the girls. A few
managed to invade the half-empty
houses up and down Hillsboro
Street.
After church on Easter Sunday,
much of SMJC departed for various
towns in Eastern Carolina. Turkey
dinners with families, swimming,
skiing, golf, or just “riding around”
helped the afternoon pass quickly.
Martha Custis, Lee Arbogast,
Betsy Hargrave, Barrett Proctor,
Flo Dodd, Eric Huske, and Louise
Cobb visited Pat Adams in Fuquay
Springs.
Trisha Huske, Jane White, Betsy
Brinkley, DeeDee DeVere, Legare
Hobbs, Dorothy Overbeck, Lucy
Lynn Wooten, Alichael Gardner,
and Janice Sutton went to Fayette
ville.
Another St. Alary’s belle, Josie
Ward, chose white organdy for
the occasion. Josie wore a full
skirted dress with big puffed
sleeves, and a sweetheart neckline.
At the front of the neckline was a
blue velveteen bow. Completing her
outfit was the traditional picture
hat.
Betty Bundy decided on pink
ruffled organdy for her dress. The
dress was the lightest shade of
pink with an off-shoulder neckline.
Instead of a picture hat, Betty wore
a flowered bonnet that matched her
dress.
It seems that organdy was the
favorite for this big event because
Lou Johnson was another girl who
chose it. Lou’s j)astel green dress
had a full ruffled skirt, and at the
neckline were pretty bunches of tiny
flowers.
Of course, the item that proved
a “must” was long, lacy pantaloons.
It is doubtful if a single girl there
did not wear them.
These are only a few of the girls
who represented St. Alary’s so
beautifully, but you can be sure
the rest were equally pretty.
For every girl who’s got the
curves, there’s a man who’s got the
angles.
All of us make footprints on the
sands of time. Some leave the
impression of a great soul—others,
just the mark of a heel.
