A Sweetheart Go modern if you like girls. . . but its the old-fashioned type that they boys still yearn for. Trying to find out what makes a sweetheart the Gamecock interviewed NI iss Betty Childs, recently selected as "Sweetheart of Sigma Chi", and the above statement was found to be trne. Remember the brown bet tvs your grandmother used to make .ud they were so vum yum? Well. this Itctty is just light hrownii and has lovely hazel eves. She isn't as small as grandma's cookies, she measures just about five feet five inches. Site doe.n't smoke or dri+ok nor sitterbtnL. although site admits she likes the nmusic of Frank Sinatra and (len NIMiller. Betty's favorite recre atittn is tting to tihe 11m ie, bu1it when out on a date 'lhe'd rather go up to the Sigma Chi fraternity room. A Columbia girl, Betty finished at Dreher II igh and is now a sopho more here following in the footsteps of her big sister who also attended Carolina. Betty is majoring in En glish but hasn't decided yet what her other main course will be. This sweetheart loves all sorts of little animals but she just hates to hear people fussing. She dislikes conceited men, too, but is partial to male redheads, being pinned for months to Sigma Chi, John Simp son, of the ROTC. Betty's on the' quiet side, but when nentioning her ambition she becomes more vociferous. QVite frankly she will tell you that she wsants to get married, hav'e a cute little house anid take care of her family, tnot earinig whet her site's ever rich or poo'r.
