The Butterfly’s
Trail
By Albert Mary Thweatt
The presentation of the JABBERWOCK by the Beta Delta
Sigma chapter of the Delta Sigma Theta Sorority, Inc., was
one that will long be remembered by all who attended. Con¬
gratulations to all of the schools, sororities, fraternities and
ether organizations who went all out in costumes and per-
fo mince to make the affair a great success. The team work
v as wonderful . . . for which Delta expresses sincere appzeci-'
ation.
The 'contestants for the coveted title of “ MISS JABER-
WOCK of 1952“ were lovely to behold as they were presented
to the vast audience. It was unfortunate that the winner,
Miss Hazel Watkins, could not be in two places at the same,
time. She was a member of Alfred E. Beach’s track team and
could not arrive in Savannah in time from Ft. Valley where
the meet was held. Standing proxy for her was lovely Miss
Barbara Snype who was so very sweet in yellow organdy.
Winning a close second was Miss Eugenia Slater who was
cdorable and really looking like a bride in her white nylon
net over white satin featuring a fitted bodice. Tne hooped
skirt was very full. She wore a string of pearls.
Sweet and petite, Miss Marie Manigault was gowned in
a white nylon net over satin with a fitted bodice and flowing
■skv^t.
Miss Elanche Flipper was very charming in her orchid
nylon net over orchid taffeta. The off the shoulder bodice
was of orchid lace.
Miss Carolyn Scott was also charming in blue nylon net
over taffeta with a fitted bodice.
Congratulations to the winners of the skits.
