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.
