Description

"Mrs. Tarleton A. Jenkins of Fort Worth was elected president of the Statewide Texas State College for Women Ex-students Association Saturday when homecoming day opened the three-day commencement exercises." "Mrs. Jenkins, writer for The Star-Telegram and wife of the Fort Worth Chamber of Commerce publicity director, was an outstanding student while on the campus. As Miss Nedra Copper, she was president of her sophomore class, editor of the Ex-student Bulletin which she now will direct, and associate editor of the Lass-O, college newspaper. Her work as a student assistant and secretary in the department of journalism prevented her serving as editor of the paper. She is member of the class of '30. The Jenkins's have two children." Mrs. Jenkins is pictured in a stripped button up dress with a dark collar. The dress appears to have 3 large buttons and pockets on each hip. Her hair is pulled back and parted down the middle, and she is looking to the left of the camera and smiling. In the background is a concrete wall.
