Last year s Seniors had 'Dared to be different’ and had selected a yellow floral print dress for Com- mencement. Our Class voted to return to tradition- al white for ours. The Red Roses we would carry would provide the only touch of color. Once again, MRS. SEIGEL of SHULMAN S BRIDAL SHOP in White Plains, arrived at the Mount with a carload of beau- tiful gowns — SO beautiful that a selection was a bit difficult. Ten or twelve girls were selected to model the dresses. Few of the dresses were white, there- fore we had to picture how a dress we were seeing in a color would look in white. The dress we finally selected was a brown voile with a white pique collar and gir- dle. You will recognize it — ANNE COYLE is modeling it in the group pic- ture at the right. 118
