THE NEWBERRY SUN PAGE FIVE FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER, 29, 1939 Society ifj^! Under the figure 23 on the Sep tember page of the calendar we find “first day of autumn.” That’s a score for the weatherman for last Saturday was a typical autumn day and the days since have been running true to form. Accepting the calen dar’s statement we have delved into cedar chests and moth-proof bags for last winter’s wearing apparel and are passing the time re-modelling. In spite of many beautiful new clothes in the shops some of the old ones “just have to last another season.” Friday Wedding From the subject of clothes to an other ever-popular one, weddings, we find much interest centering in the marriage of Sara Neel to Rich ard Porter of Lancaster and Colum bia which takes place tomorrow (Fri day) at the home of the bride-elect’s parents, Mr. and Mrs. Richard C. Neel, in Silverstreet. The wedding to be followed by an informal recep tion will be a small affair as far as attendance is concerned, only rela tives of the couple having been in vited. Planning to go from the city are Mr. and Mrs. Eugene S. Blease. The bride-elect is a niece of Mrs. Blease. Sara is an attractive blond. She attended Newberry college com mercial school and is employed in the Federal Land Bank of Columbia. Mr. Porter’s family lives in Lancaster. After a brief wedding trip the cou ple will make their home in Columbia where they have an apartment. We hear that Sara will continue her work in the Land Bank. Mr. Parter travels out of Columbia. Glover-Moore flowers and zinnias. Six tables were placed for players. At noon a two course luncheon was served. Joining the guests at that hour were Mrs. F. O. Lamoreux, Mrs. R. M. Kennedy, Miss Minnie Campbell, and Mrs. C. A. Calcote. Music at Newberry Much interest is being shown in music at Newberry college this year. Whether the occasion is a dance, a football game, a reception or tea, or services and meetings of any kind Newberry will have just the right group of musicians on hand. Al ready playing for several occasions, the College ‘N’ Orchestra is being directed by Harry Raymond and made up entirely of college students. Professor Harry Feld is organizing a band of students and a few players from the city. Mr. Feld also has charge of the High school "orchestra again this year. Professor Milton Moore is directing the Newberry Col lege Singers. Tryouts for places in the group have been held and the singers are down to hard practices. We hear that a trio and quartet will be organized over there this year and talk is also going around to the effect that there will probably be a men’s glee club. Names Untold An engagement and early marriage to be announced before so very long will be of utmost interest to New- berrians. The bride-to-be works in a nearby city, but her family lives here and she is at home almost every weekend. She attended the city schools and Newberry college, going away to work only a short time ago. not to mention the bridegroom’s par ents and relatives, was the marriage of Miss Mattie Rivers Glover of Wal- terboro to Wilson L. Moore of the tutor is called upon for just about everything going on here and oh, how capably he fills the bill. With all ease and grace he presides at a speaking contest, an amateur con test, a beauty contest, and a baby contest (should we ever have one). He reads the script for plays and pa geants galore, judges pet shows, and would more than likely call a square dance if asked to. Recently added to his list of accomplishments was the characterization 0 f Walt Disney’s “Ferdinand the Bull.” Now he has tackled one that was bound to get him sooner or later—the quiz bug. At the party last week given by the Lutheran church for college students a question program was the main event of the evening with Dude act ing as Professor Quiz. He carried on pretty well, we understand, as long as the students answered the questions and didn’t call on him for an answer. If you’re wondering what might be next on this versatile person’s list, don’t be surprised to j learn he’s trying to conduct an orchestra. His imitation of Kay Kyzer while quizzing wasn’t bad.
