STYLuH SHOW cont. from page 1
Muriel Spears, a professional model. With
the ease of one well-schooled in her pro
fession, she glided gracefully through a
full program of eight costume changes.
Other town women chosen to model garments
in which they were particularly charming
were "Hank" Hammond, June Spears, Ruth
Palmer and Lee Church. Miss Forbes Super
Vised and directed the show and coached
the models.
The style highlight of the evening was
the presentation of a white going-away out
fit by June Spears who is to become the
bride this month of Kay Guthrie.
Recognition must be given to Mary Alice
Behr who so willingly assisted with the
arrangements and tasks surrounding the
offering of the Style Show to the public.
