Miss Jordon, Sue Moore,

to be towed away to a gar-
age. Sue ^ and Marie finally
over the Statler HElton and
the cute bellboys. They
then proceeded to take a
walk around Neiman Marcus
and wish. Arriving back
at the hotel and ready for
some peace and quiet, it
was discovered Jane Morgan
and Ricky Nelson were also
staying in the hotel, Fri-
day morning they started
for the State Fair Grounds,
The fust part of the morn-
ing meeting began at 9:00
and they were on time,
believe it or not. Mrs
Billy Davis, wife of a
missionary in San Salvador,
was an outstanding speaker
of the morning meeting.
The story of her life has
been put on £Dm and showed
here in school some years
ago. She gave a very
inspiring speech on "Life
in a China Closet." At

the Automobile Building on
the fair grounds*. After
lunch everyone then went
back for the afternoon

was tuned to Conorad* For
thirty minutes over three
thousand girls listened to
the President and local
officialls speak over the
radio. Sat. morning everjjr

o’clock everyone was dis-
missed and headed back to

packing and sighing a last
sigh over the Statler, it
