I Cares More for Khaki Than
Silk. More for Bathing Suit
Than Ball Gown.
A pretty girl in a gray tailored suit
ran out of the Aragon hotel, slipped
undt i ... -ter rmg wheel of a green au
tomobile with a young man inside it
•and was off toward East Lake in a
hurry.
"There goes the Eieanor Sears of
Atlanta," said another young man. who
was left behind and looked as though
he was sorry. "She swims, rides, drives
a motor, mins a motorcycle, plays bas
ket ball and lives outdoors. If she
doesn't ride to hounds, it’s because
there's no hunt dub in Atlanta, nor
any foxes."
The girl was Thelma Harrell, whose
father B. Prank Harrell, Is manager
of the Aragon. Miss Harrell lives in a
hotel, but she is far from being a sit
around-the-parlor girl. She's a tailor
made, divided-skirt, leather-leggins
kind of girl, who cares more for khaki
than silk, likes a bathing suit much
better than a dancing frock and says
she had rather swim than play bridge.
“Oh. swimming," said Miss Harrell,
when she was asked what she liked
most of all sports. "1 had a dip at East
Lake this morning Yes, it was cold.
This is my last day. and I'm so sorry.
Down at our summer home, at St.
Georges Island we swim much later
than this. But that's salt water, you
know.
"No, I'm not a horseback fiend. I
used to love to ride, but since I've
i grown used to motoring I don’t -are
for horses. They seem slow. you
know. No, I haven't a car of my ow n.
But I have so many good friends with
motors that I really wouldn't have any
use for a car of my own.
'Of real games, basket ball is my
favorite. 1 played on the Hanna school
team last year, you know. It was lots
of fun. <’f course. I like tennis. I'm I
