"Lover Come Back to Me," and ed
"September Song."
Mary started banging on a pi- gal
ano way back in 1931 when she ing
was only five years old. While
she was attending grammar c

so this she did. She continued pi
ano lessons the whole year round,
and each year practiced a little Fr
longer. nil
Her mother plays the piano and P.
her two brothers also have de- ho
veloped the talent. The young co- thi
ed plays the piano almost exclu- co
sively now, but formerly she play- cil
ed almost every instrument in her
high school band such as the trum- th
pet, the drums, and the saxophone. Li
Mary served as editor of the Ni
weekly newspaper in her home C

half years, "The Horry County L
