Boy Meets Girl on Our Front Cover

The girl is 17-year-old Powers model Bette Mills of East Orange, N.J. The boy is 19-year-old Eugene McBride, the Walter Thornton model who made such a hit with you in that ski suit photograph in the January Calling All Girls. They met, for the first time, at William Ward's photography studio in New York when our front cover Kodachrome was shot. They're wearing T-Mates Tee Shirts and beloved jeans. They're "Saying It with Jewelry," as featured on pages 12, 13, 14, and 15 of this issue. Heart pin and bracelet by Coro.

Bette's favorite sports are riding and swimming. She picks Gene Tierney and Gregory Peck as her reel-life favorites. Tommy Dorsey's music sends her. On our front cover, she's wearing Dermetics Red Earth lipstick, perfect foil for her summer tan.

Eugene was born in Brooklyn, N.Y. Swimming and football are his pet sports, and for a hobby he builds little boats in bottles, possibly a carry-over from his two years in the Navy. He hopes to be in movies, so watch out for him.
