Jan Ewing
JMpLPku “QJ Of 5L Uar ”
Meet Jan Ewing, Alpha
Phi’s motorcycle riding girl
of the year. Jan is a pretty,
5 foot, I'/i, 115-pound bundle
of pure energy. She believes
in doing things and having
fun with her family. The one
thing their family likes to do
most together is motorcycle
riding.
Jan’s husband, Winton Ewing,
has his own motorcycle also.
They have two children,
Mathew nine; and Lisa who will
be two next month. Mathew
rides alone on the seat behind
his father while Lisa is carried
Indian style in a special de
signed papoose on her mother’s
back. Lisa is dressed for the
ride down to her tiny little hel
met.
On weekends one might
find this family riding along
together on some back moun
tain road enjoying the scen
ford creeks on seldom used
balf grown up roads. “The
worst part is when suddenly
you realize that you’ve taken
the wrong road somewhere
back and can’t seem to figure
out where in the world you
are with no compass; and
maps that are not quite up to
date,” said Jan.
Or one might find them camp
ing over near Franklin. They
pack tent, sleeping bags, pots
and pans and everything need
ed right on the back of the
motorcycles, along with the
children to make the long
journey, Jan admits they have
to rough it a bit camping be
cause they are limited in what
they can take along with them,
but the children love the ex
perience so much that it makes
it all worth while.
Jan and Winton came to
Brevard three years ago from
New Jersey. They live in
Morgan Heights. In a few
weeks ■ however Brevard will
be losing them. RCA is trans
ferring this family to Wash
ington, D. C.
While in Brevard Jan has
been a very active member of
the Alpha Phi sorority, a chap
ter of Epsilon Sigma Alpha.
She was recently selected by
members of her sorority to rep
resent them at state convention
to be held in Durham, this year.
May 21 through 23rd. They will
again make this a family affair
except they will travel by van
down to Durham this time.
However the van is so designed
that they can take their motor
cycles along with them. Jan
will be in competition with
other girls throughout the state
for this honor of being chosen
girl of the year.
Alpha Phi chose Jan their
girl of the year because of
her interest, concern and en
thusiasm for the sorority.
Last year she served as the
vice president which auto
matically made her rush
chairman. She spent many
long hours using her creative
talents to make favors and
gifts for the rushees. She
made lovely handmade arti
cles such as candle stick
holders out of glass jars, pin
cushions out of felt and just
a few weeks ago she made
corsages out. of yellow jon
qucls for each member of
Alpha Phi for the installa
tion' of officers banquet.
• One of the most , successful
projects Jan was responsible
for this past year was the
Benefit Fashion Show the so
rority sponsored in March. Due
to Jans efforts and other help
ing, the sorority raised over
$400.00. Jan was a professional
model in South Jersey and she
shared this special talent with
Alpha Phi to coordinate and
put together a beautiful show.
She taught the sorority girls
how to model, walk, smile and
show the clothes off to their
best advantage.
Jan shared another model
ing technique with us last
yoar also. She gave the edu
cational program one month
on make-up techniques she
learned as a model. This
program included the proper
application of make-up as
well as exercise and diet.
Last December Jan designed
and made hand puppets for a
puppet show given by the Alpha
Phi girls to the head start chil
dren down at the Episcopal
church. The sorority adopted
this group of children over a
year ago to take care of. They
see that these children have
warm clothes to wear, take
them fresh fruit and give them
endless partys for every holi
day. The puppet show was a
special treat that Jan wanted to
give them. She has spent many
hours of her time helping out
with this special,project.
Outside of the interest Jan
has in Alpha Phi and with
her family, she still manages
to find time for her own
interests and hobbies. Jan’s
hobbies include arts and
crafts. She loves, to _S£W ailtl
Lisa’s clothes. She also en
joys cooking. She belongs to
the Creative Living home
demonstration club to further
her knowledge of those hob
bies. She also enjoys trying to
play bridge.
Alpha Phi has been very for
tunate in having Jan as a mem
ber. We will certainly miss her.
She represents feminity and
womanhood—love and compas
sion — loveliness and tender
ness riding on a motorcycle.
The key to a well-kept lawn
is weekly mowing. But be very
careful if you use a power mow
er. Never start it in an enclosed
area such as a garage, say Lib
erty Mutual Insurance Com
panies. The result could be car
bon monoxide poisoning, a si
lent, odorless killer.
