Betty Childs Reveals
What Makes A Sweetheart
. . 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.
