Hello again. Once more the college crowd have trekked

mas vacation.

Mater and I trekked off to Detroit and Romulus to spend
the weckend in visiting friends and-relatives. -Had a very fine
time and while in Detroit was able to call on old friends GER
TRULDE SIMS WILLiAMS, whom you can recall is a: farmer~

Flintite. She and her husband, TOMMY, are the proud parents of one of the most beautiful baby girls that we have seen
for some time. Little CAROL ANN is just one big dimply

smile. They are planing on visiting Flint soon.

Welcome to comely Alvita Whilby of Saginaw, Mich..
daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Herbert Whilby. She ~is attending
junior collége in this city and while here, is staying at the Frank
Gillespies~ residence on Glilespie Street.

The Rev. and Mrs. J. W. Walker have returned from
their vacation in the East and are quite enthused over the enjyoyment the trip meant to them. ~Twas really heartening to
hear that WARREN WARDELL, our own popular Flintite had
been elected vice president of junior college. We certainly
take off our hats to you. We also understand that (don~t you
quote me) he has received a position on the college publica-: Orchids to WILLIAM ~~S<elly~> JOHNSON and IZORA
CAYTCON who spoke their vows on Saturday evening. They
plan to reside temporarily at the home of the bride~s mother.
Among ihe guests who were present for the wedding was
JEWEL BEAUCHAMP of Lansing and NELLIE SOLOMON
of Detroit.

- Here are some interesting dates to add to your social ca'ender: Sep:. 27 at 7:30 p.m. the Ritzy Teen Marching Unit
will present a style show at the YWCA.

Oct. 16 will bring a very promising recital bringing to the
spotlight Miss Josie Jchnson and Mr. Rudolph Scott, two of
Flint~s up and coming concert artists.

Sept. 28 the Commandos are coming to our attention to
give a semi-formal ball at ~the Armory on Léwis Street. Music
will be furnished by Gene Seals and his Swing Un't.

Flint citizens are welcoming to Flint the new addition to
the teaching staff at Parkland School. She is M!'S$S DORIS
HOWARD ot Ann Arbor, Mich. She also isa graduate of Wilberforce University and received her bachelor~s degree in the
Spring.
