Fourth Grade Gives Irish Music Program BETSY FOX

The second senior spotlight is directed this week on Betsy Fox. one of Danville's contributions to S. T. C. Betsy came to us last year from Averett as a Junior. In the few months she has been here. Betsy has made an outstanding record, and has made a permanent place for herself in the hearts of those with whom she has come in contact.

Tall and blond. Betsy possesses one of those contagious grins, and she keeps it tushed on most of the time. She Is overflowing with class and color and school spirit, and each group can be proud of the part she has taken in their activities.

In the official records Betsy will go down as president of Pi Gamma Mu. as student government representative, as chairman of Sing. But we'll remember her for long chats, for her levelheadedness, for her smile that makes you feel good all over.
