Wives of Naval Man-agement students were hostesses, and a ca-pacity crowd socialized, ate a delicious lunch and viewed a fashion show of hats, custom-designed by Mrs. Elsie Walters and her class. The beautiful '0' Club at the Presidio was the background for pastel decorations using flowers, ivy, streamers and hat boxes, color-hued to the bright spring bonnets of the guests themselves. Seated at the head table were Mrs. Bergin and her guests, her mother, Mrs. Philbrick, and Mrs. E. H. J. Carns, wife of the Com-manding General of Fort Ord; our senior advisor, Mrs. Risser, whose guests were Mrs. A. E. Vivell, wife of the Academic Dean, and Mrs. R. L Long, wife of the Commandant of the DLI. Also present were our "retiring" advisor, Mrs. Meyer; Mrs. Schaffer, who is "reporting for duty," and Mrs. McGee, wife of the Naval Management Curricular Officer. The hostesses worked particularly hard for this luncheon, since the purpose was such a worthy one. They were rewarded by the record turn-out and the m:irvclous amount of $147.75 realized toward the pur-chase of a TV set for the Fort Ord Hospital. All of the guests were appreciative and gen· erous in entering into the spirit of the auc-tioned items--a "My Fair L:idy" hat and boa, designed and donated by Mrs. Walters, and a beautiful flower arrangement, donated by the '0' Club. Also, there were door prize tickets for a lavendc r hat (another donation by Mrs. Walters), won by Mrs. Vivcll, and Telephone FRontiar 2-7597 two tickets donated from "Annie Get Your Gun," won by Millie Mayfield. Red, white and blue "political buttons" marked the candidates for club offices who were present to be met and introduced so that all will know them when Election Night comes up on April 16 (plug). After lunch, two lovely songs from "Annie Get Your Cun" were sung by Mary Cone, who was accomp:inied by Sue Munn at the piano. We wish to thank our members who at-tended and everyone who worked to make this benefit such a success. It was a perfect day and a good way to discover "what is a hat." -Lorna Lewu Viva Voce Vote MEETING OF THE GENERAL BOARD March 2, 1964 Motions Gamed I.

As Associate Editor, Anne is our "right arm" and assists in planning, editing, writ-ing, and aSlJCmbling the magazine. She assumes her position with a long list of qualifications in journalistic endeavors. Following study at Madison College in Virginia, Anne was Society Editor of the Staunton (Va.) News-Leader and Evening Lc:ider. She then joined the women's st:iff of the Richmond Times-Dispatch, where she was Youth P:ige Editor and did women's fe:iturcs and reporting. After her marriage to LT William Jerry Smith, Anne continued her interest in writ-ing and publication by editing, for three terms, the Key West Submarine Officers Wives Club newspaper, PERISCOOP. While in Key West, she also developed an-other interest, the unusual hobby of sand sculpture. The mother of two daughters, Stacey, 5¥.z, and Jody, almost one, Anne enjoys still an-other activity, playing bridge, and she is a regular participant on Duplicate Bridge nights. She also finds time to devote one afternoon each week to teaching at Bethle-hem Lutheran School in Monterey. Anne and Jerry-a student in the Ordnance Cur-riculum-and their daughters live on Halsey Drive in La Mesa Village. We anticipate with real pleasure our asso· ciation with Anne in the presentation each month of CLASSMATE. Her talents, we arc sure, will be reflected in each issue and will be an invaluable asset in the coming year.
