outfits for the Junior League's
first "Cowtown Carnival" pre
sented during American Royal
Week." the article states. The
second carnival followed in 1947
and then "Candida" and "Faust'

the popular socialite, housewife,
mother and artist," it continued,

Mrs. Groves were reviewed.

was at one time a Powers mod

ful that Helen of iTroy, whose
face is reputed to have launch
ed a thousand ships, could have
been as lovely as the Kansas
City beauty who has designed
the costumes for "Fair Helen."
Mrs. Groves also had a short
movie career and later returned
