I BY CYNTHIA JOHNSON <» Seems kind of funny to be sit ting down at the old typewriter to dash off a few lines about what’s what for you who have been my faithful readers. I’ve really missed our weekly chats through my column, but Winifred Harriss has ben scouting around and keping you up with the news. I saw the beauty pageant Thurs day night, and just had to let you know who was there and nny ina pt essions. First of all. Tommy Tucker was super. On that I’m sure we all agree. Both the male ar.d female vocalists were plenty okay, too. If you want any varifi cation on that statement, just ask Melrose Straughn, who, by the way, looked plenty good herself in a light blue summer dress with a wide swing skirt. She was ably escorted by Dick Phelps. The dresses worn by the con testants were *11 made along the same lines — off-shoulder with full skirts. Miss June Willetts wore a beautiful champaigne colored net gown fashioned with a very full skirt which was or namented by a wide row of cir cular golden sequins. With her blonde hair and sun-tan, the effect was very gratifying. During the talent portion of the evening most of t h e contestants chose singing to display their abilities. Many of the popuiar songs of today were sung. Miss udy Wiggins sang ‘‘Mam’selle”, Miss Harriet Vines, "Pm Con fessin’”, Miss Evelyn Bullard, ‘‘April Showers” — and she was very appropriately dressed for her song choice in a green nad white striped play suit complete with black umbrella and rain boots. But the winning song belonged to the winning contestant—the song, “Embraceable You” — the con testant, Miss Kathlen Hartis. Yes, “Mickie” was crowned Miss Wilminton for 1947, and a more deserving person was not to be found. She chose an evening gown of black gabardine made in the present-day style of off-one shoulder. Black was the color of the bathing suit worn by Mickie, too. She looked lovely to say the least each time she made an ap pearance, but when Mayor White placed the white net and rhine stone crown on her head, an d Rupert Bryan cradled the huge aim bouquet of red roses in her arms, she really looked the part of a queen. Miss Mary Jarman who was chosen for the non or last, year ab dicated her throne, and Miss Hartis, new holder of the title, ascended the seat of honor and distinction. Our heartiest congrat ulations to you, “Mickie”, and ail the luck and success in your future contests. Can’t leave a momentous night like this without making some mention of those who were spec tators and help chose the queen by their applause. Jane Head and Hampton Frady, Henry Meiers a nd June Andrews, Liston Mills and Diane Costello, Winifred Harriss and Jimmy McCarl and so many others brought back memories of high school dances and other jivey get-togethers. Of course Fred Sternberger, Willie Hewlett, Harry IVellott, Harry Williams, Ed Lamb, Hooper Johnson — and I could go on for hours — made up the regular list of stags. But all in all, the eve ning was wonderful. Guess that’* about all I had to say for now. It’s time to put the cover on my typewriter and close shop. Sho‘ is fine to be back home — and it’s perfect to be sending along my usual — so long. * * * Mrs. Scott Parker, Burgaw Visitor, is Honored At Party BURGAW, July 12—Mesdames N. C. Wolfe and John J.
