Noreen Kelly can now boast of being a "cover girl" for her pic ture will be used on the cover of the 1950 annual of Marylhurst college where Noreen is attend ing school. Marylhurst's year book is known as "The Foun tain." Miss Kelly, a pretty brun ette, is a freshman at the school and plans later to study law, hav ing decided long ago to some time become a partner with her father. She is a daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Edward C. Kelly. Now that the valley has had a few mild spring-like days, gar deners are beginning to pore over seed catalogs and watch for the first crocus, daffodil shoots and buds on the camellia bushes. Spring also brings out the horseback riding enthusiasts, and members of the Ladies' Mounted troop and other riding groups are beginning to plan me season s ac' tivities. Mrs. Harry Barneburg was hostess last week for the tradi tional past captains luncheon, and her term of office will end at the next meeting when the annual election is held. Civic music association mem bers and their guests who heard Dorothy Warenskjold sing Tues day night left the concert hail exclaiming both over her voice and her charming personality. Miss Warenskjold is a "triple threat" entertainer she is love ly to look at, has a gorgeous so prano voice and simply bubbles with enthusiasm over life in gen eral. For her concert Tuesday the brunette, green-eyed Californian wore a very swish gown of green and white. A full green and white net skirt had 'an over- drapery of white satin with green applique designs. The bodice was otf-shouider but in contrast to an other singer who appeared on the concert stage here last year, the gown was correctly fitted and stayed modestly in place,, even on the high notes. The usual group of backstage habitues gathered for autographs and to congratulate the singer and accompanist. Miss Waren gjkold chatted in a friendly man ner with everyone and when asked if she was going out for supper she replied that she wasn't very hungry, having had a steak just before the concert. She laughed heartily at the idea of nibbling on a salad, or "some thing light" before singing and said "I need nourishment when I sing." When one of the young auto graph hounds remarked that at least one could read Miss Waren skjold'! signature, she told how at a previous concert a small girl had extended her program to be autographed and while watching said in a loud wnisper moinerl ihe writes terrible." Miss Warenskjold goes east later this month to sing February 26 on the "Harvest of Stars" with Tenor James Melton. and has resulted in friendships and activities for many women who otherwise might find life lonely in a new city. Among the visitors was Mrs. Emory Green of Quincy, Mich., who accompanied her daughter, Mrs. A. J. Loeffler, to the party.

Floyd, visiting the Tribune with a story about the Phoenix Garden club, apologized for her extra large round hand writing which takes up so much space on the paper. When asked if she wasn't a former school teacher, Mrs. Floyd said yes, she both taught school and kept books in past years. Which adds to the evidence that grade school teachers and former teachers can almost al ways be spotted by their clear handwriting.
