TINE Misses Carolynn and Beatrice
Talley, daughters of Mr.. and
" i Mrs. Lynn Porter Talley, have
changed the date for their
presentation to society to December 81,
when their parents will introduce them
at tea dance.
The first date set, December %, also
was selected by Miss Anne Underwood,
who also will be introduced at tea,
and as each debutante wants an after
noon or an evening for her very own,
the question of conflicting dates is
always given serious consideration.
~ The place at which the tea dance
for the Misses Talley will be held has
not vet been decided" upon, and this
question of where" is one more grave
than usual, especially for the larger
dances. Dates must be made weeks
and even months in advance, with a
large number of debutantes and very
large amount of gayety planned for
each one.
Newest on the list of debutantes is
