Description

Star-Telegram Junior photos. Left to right, Virginia Price and Josephine Dunn, both of the business office. "Dark-eyed, soft-spoken Josephine Dunn is another newcomer to the Business Office. A member of The Star-Telegram Gang four months, she thinks it's all pretty swell. Josephine and husband, "Dunn," are full-fledged farmers. They are concentrating on improving their one acre tract at Haltom City. Josephine's hobby is having photographs made of 8-month-old Carol Lee, her daughter. Since she adores coffee, Josephine thinks lifting of coffee rationing is one of the nicest things that ever happened. Her ambition is to lose 25 pounds". Mrs. Dunn is located on the right side of the photograph. She is wearing a striped short sleeve dress with large white buttons from the waist up, and a belt around the waist that matches the pattern of her dress. Mrs. Dunn has dark hair that is pulled back. Her arms are down at her side, and she is smiling and looking behind the camera. "Virginia Price, 4-foot, 11-inch, 100-pound package of charm--tiniest girl in the Business Office--- has been around for six months and loves it. Ambitious, capable and even tempered, Virginia is one of the reasons the Business Office functions smoothly. Reared in Corsicana, Virginia was graduated from high school there and married on the same day. Chief interest in her life--her home at 200 North Twenty-First Street; blond husband, Bob, and little Bobby. Was ambitious to work in a large office. Since that ambition has been realized, her current ambition is to be 5 feet, 3 inches tall". Mrs. Price is located on the left side of the photograph. She is wearing a white short sleeve blouse, a dark belt, and black bottoms. She has short curly hair and is wearing glasses. Mrs. Price appears to be looking to the left of the camera and is smiling.
