Main Street Call 2-1662 for Appointment The Last Word Freshmen’s Locks Skidding Children Hail Fall Weather By PAT MORLEY Battalion Women’s Editor With freshmen’s thick locks gracing the floors of local barber shops, with College View and Vet Village yards filled with children running happily through the rain, with just a temporary “nip” in the air . . . it’s fall in College Station. Burr hair cuts give the fish the “new look,” the rain gives the kids a slippery look, which gives the mothers a harried look, and the rain gives all of us drought-weary localites a skep tical look. Rain, or no rain, fall activities are getting underway with a rush. Freshmen were entertained royally at an in formal reception at the MSC Sunday afternoon, with about 1000 guests present. Lamar McNew, chairman of the recep tion, and Dean John R. Bertrand, head of the Basic Division, were enthusiastic hosts. Freshmen and guests were toured through the MSC, and had refreshments in the Ballroom. About 75 local girls were present to help welcome the class of ’55, and it’s unnecessary to report that they were enthus iastically received! Local girls are in a flurry of activity getting ready to leave for college. Jean Marie Edge, who turned in a be witching performance of “Buttercup” in the “H. M. S. Pin afore” production at the Grove this summer, is leaving for Texas University. Other local lasses preparing to be off to the U. campus are Joan Rupel, Kay Smith, Angela Luckenback, Jean Black, Jean Kennedy, Ann Hickerson, Sidney Howell, Jean McCullough, Barbara Birdwell, and Tommie Bunting, and Nancy Stevens. Nancy has been a member of Coach Art Adamson’s swimming team this summer. Baylor’s campus at Waco will be graced by Mary Jane Akin, Annabelle Perry and Ann Dansby. Camille Lucas and Grace Norman are off to North Texas State College in Denton. Merle Baker, Dorothy Bates and Reba McDermott will soon be leaving for Sam Houston State College at Huntsville. “Mother of presidents,” Mrs. Howard W. Barlow, was producing hot dogs Friday, on a commercial scale! Wife of the Dean of Engineering, good-natured Mrs. Barlow is room mother for the CHS junior class, and has been “elected” to raise money to help finance a party later in the year, by selling hot dogs at football games. Dean and Mrs. Barlow have the distinction of having two sons who are presidents. Now they can follow political careers, after following sports careers to swimming meets all summer. Bob has recently been elected to head the senior class, with Wanda Goodwin, vice-president, Dorothy Holick, Secretary, Glenda Brown, Treasurer, and Martha Jane Arnold, reporter. Tom Barlow is the junior class president, with Joe Motherall, vice-presi dent, Barbara Van Tassol, secretary and James Johnson, treasurer. Sophomore officers are Jimmy Bond, president, Pinky Cooner, vice-president, Eleanor Price, secretary, Ann Wil liams, treasurer, and Robert Jackson, reporter. The same of fices in the freshman class are held by Clifton Bates, George Litton, Ann Beaty, Travis Englebrecht and Jerry Oden, re spectively. Errol D. Frys to Make Houston Home Mr. and Mrs. Errol D. Fry will be at home in Houston when they return from an undisclosed honey moon destination. They were uni ted in marriage Saturday at 8 p. m. before the flower-laden altar of the First Baptist Church of Bryan. Mrs. Fry is the former Betty Ann Potter, society editor of The Battalion last summer. The candlelit wedding ceremony, followed by a reception in the MSC Ballroom, culminated a two-year courtship. Betty and Errol met at Texas University, where Errol graduated in 1950, and Betty re ceived her degree this summer. Miss Potter was entertained by a lavish array of parties in the month before her marriage. A per sonal shower was given for her in Austin by Mrs. Paul Williams. Carlita Wollbrett of Houston en tertained the bride-to-be with a bathroom shower. In Waco, a morn ing reception was held in her hon or by Mrs. John Kee. Mrs. A. L. Nelson and Mrs. Howard Barlow feted Miss Potter with a breakfast at the MSC. A Coke party in the home of Mrs. C. W. Crawford of College Station, was a courtesy of Mrs. Crawford and co-hostess, Mrs. Bob Reeves. A breakfast at the MSC was given by Mrs. Frank Powell, and her daughter, Betty. Mrs. Gibb Gil christ and Mrs. Frank Anderson held a formal reception in the Gil- ARROW SHIRTS # TIES • SPORTS SHIRTS * UNDERWEAR • HANDKERCHIEFS christ home in honor of the popu lar bride-to-be. The Oaks in Bryan was the scene for a breakfast presented by Miss Dorothy Spriggs, Mis. C. 0. Spriggs, Miss Jean Adams, and Mrs. I. G. Adams. An informal sup per was given by Mrs. Dell Bauer and Mrs. J. C. Gaines. Mrs. T. D. Brooks and Mrs. M. T. Harrington entertained with a morning tea in the Harrington home. Mrs. Her- shell Burgess and her daughter, Lou, gave Miss Potter a bridge- luncheon at The Oaks. A bridge party was held in the home of Bet ty and Margie Knowles of College Station. Mrs. Lawrence Dillon and Miss Pat Dillon “surprised” the honoree with a night shower and Canasta party.
