Athens Junior Ladies Garden Club
To Stage "A Welcome to Christmas"
“A Welcome to Christmas”
is the theme of the Junior
Ladies Garden Club’s Holiday
House to be presented to the
public Saturday and Sunday,
December 10th and 11th from
2:00 until 6:00 p.m. at the
handsome home of Dr. and Mrs.
James B. Allen, 495 West Lake
Drive, Athens,.
Serving as over-all chair
man for the event is Mrs. Rob
ert Segrest, president of the
club, whose own stately Mil
ledge Avenue house was the
scene of the Garden Club’s last
Holiday House, featuring “Five
Centuries of Christmas.”
The pineapple has been tra
ditionally considered a symbol
of welcome and hospitality
since Georgian England, and
this exotic and once-rare fruit
will be used as a central theme.
Large simulated pineapples
will ornament the gateposts
flanking the curved driveway
leading to the white painted
brick house.
The style of the house, often
called Colonial, is more correct
ly described as Federal, the
classic revival period of the
early American Republic, typi
fied by the greater use of col
umns. The two-story high por
tico employing slender, square
columns is similar to Mount
Vernon, probably the best
known example of this period.

drawing room features a pan-

ciating by the Rev. Wayne

A white floor basket of mam
moth white chrysanthemums
and gladiolus, interspersed with
fern fronds, was the focal point
of the altar before which the
couple exchanged their wedd
ing vows.
Miss Peggy Jaynes, panist,
rendered an appropriate pro
gram of nuptial compositions
in prelude; and accompanied
Eddie Ratcliffe, who sang “Be
cause”.
Charles D. Treadwell of At
lanta served as best man; and
Nat Tannon, also of Atlanta was
a groomsman.
Mrs. Ratcliffe, given in mar
riage by her son, H. L. Rat
cliffe, wore a crepe model in
capri blue, with keyhole neck
line and three quarter length
sleeves. She wore a hatnip of
velvet petals in powder into
capri blue, with matching
brow veil; white gloves, and
black pumps. She carried a
white prayer book, topped
with a cluster of white carna
tions, showered with satin
streamers.
Mrs. J. H. Orr of Stock
bridge, matron of honor, wore
a navy taffeta costume, with
lavaliere neckline, with which
she wore a small matching
hat. Her corsage was of white
carnations.
Mrs. James Bradberry, sis
ter of the bride, and a brides
maid, wore blue lace over satin,
complimented by a white car
nation corsage. Her small hat
was in a matching color.
Immediately following the

vley left on a wedding trip to
an undisclosed destination. Up

munity.

ing pilasters and classical over
door treatment. Architect for
the house was C. Wilmer Hee
ry, A.1.A., of Heery and Heery,
Athens, and Atlanta.
Accentuating the idea of
hospitality and welcome, the
pineapple motif will be re
peated on the front door and
throughout the house by the
use of fresh miniature pine
apples and gilded and encrust
ed pineapple-shaped plant ma
terials.
Unusual and eye-catching
decorations in the making in

Christmas tree for the draw
ing room. It will be hung with
fragile white birds imported
from the Museum of Popular

ing musical instruments, have
been procured from a Sicilian
orphanage to point up the swag
of fresh greens on the stair
way.
Members of the Junior Miss
es Garden Club are to serve as
hostesses in the room planned
for a Christmas Breakfast.
Traditional holiday ideas will
predominate in the large pan
eled den overlooking the rear
terrace. In this outdoor area,
bordering the extensive back
grounds, many bird feeding
stations will be placed.
There will be an admission

Appears In
Boston U. Play
Jean Parker of Covington,
student in Boston University’s
School of Fine and Applied
Arts, appeared in the anony
mous Christian “morality” play
“Everyman” as Strength. The
play was produced live, in col
or, on WHDH-TV’s “Dateline
Boston” by the Boston Univer
sity Stage 5 Players.
A half-hour adaption of
“Everyman” was produced live
in color on WHDH-TV’s “Date
line Boston” by the Boston Uni
versity Stage 5 Players on
Monday, Nov. 28, at 6 p.m.
The historic “morality” play,
second in the University’s TV
drama series on “the changing
role of the hero”, was directed
by Ted Kazanoff, assistant pro
fessor at the Unive rs i t y’s
School of Fine and Applied
Arts. Program host was Elliot
Norton, drama critic and lec
turer in dramatic literature at
the University.
“Everyman”, the anonymous
work of a medieval churchman,
was the most popular of the
Christian “morality” plays
which traveled the English
country-side on mobile stages
as a teaching instrument of the
church.
Director Kazanoff used an
Old English text, adapted by
graduate drama student Myrna
Casas, but set the Everyman
story in 15th-century Flanders.

a brief talk on, “Carrying
Your Corner”, and led the
prayer. Those who had part on
the program were Mrs. W. B.
Harvey, Miss Eva Gardner and
Miss Irene Harvey. The pro
gram was closed with prayer
by Miss Leila Gardner.
The roll was called by the
secretary Miss Sue Thompson
by each answering with a Bi
ble verse. The minutes were
read and approved. This being
the last meeting of the year it
was announced all required
studies have been held and
the budget was paid and some
paid to other specials. The
meeting closed with prayer.
Thus Everyman is seen as a
solid Flemish burgher with
proper appreciation of balance
sheets in this world but not in
the next —until God calls him
for the final accounting which
admits only spiritual assets in
the credit column. As his
worldly goods are stripped
away one by one, Everyman
evolves from the earthly to the
spiritual to the divine.
In the student cast were
Frank Mello, as Everyman;
Philip Robb as Death; and
James Haney as the Voice of
God. Companions of Everyman
are Fellowship, played by Jack
Davidson; Goods (Faye Dun
away); Good Deeds (Linda
Kilb) and Knowledge (Susan
Hubbard). Four counselors —
Beauty, Strength, Discreation
and the Five Wits —are play
ed by Sheila Walsh, Jean
Parker, Louise Alexander and
Sheryl Lerner.
