It all came about when Ginger was among 21 students of the Betty Lane School of Charm and Modeling who joined 1,200 other modeling students from over the world for the annual Modeling Association (International) Convention in New York on May 1 for a week of participation in various workshops on modeling and charm. Highlight of the convention for Ginger came during the modeling contest when she was selected from 800 girls to place in the top of the nonprofessional class, winning the title of Miss High Fashion Model. From that moment on, during her stay in New York, it was a beautiful "nightmare" for Ginger and Mrs. Gramling, instructor of the Betty Lane Modeling School, who were swamped with calls from 10 modeling agencies ready to sign Ginger for a permanent contract. Ginger arrived home from the Big City following the convention with mixed emotions as to what decision to make, and, of course, to confer with her parents.

In the meantime, the telephone continued to ring with long distance calls from the New York agencies urging her back. After serious concentration on nothing else for two weeks, she made the final decision last week and now has a three-year contract with Stewart Models Agency with offerings from "Glamour," "Seventeen" and "Harpers Bazaar," the latter which features Cheryl Tiegs on the cover of the June Issue. Stewart Models also handles Twiggy, Sybil Sheppard and Susan Dey (of the Partridge Family). Donna DeSeta, vice president of Stewart Models, made all the arrangements for Ginger's arrival in New York, lining up an apartment, roommate, etc. Ginger departed Monday, June 3 from the Columbia Airport, accompanied by her father on the flight.

When asked if she was excited about what's ahead, a new lifestyle so to speak, she said, "Not really, but it's a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity and at least I will give it a try. It still seems like a dream; I can't believe that it all happened to me," she added. Ginger was also asked what she would miss most in New York. She replied, "Fresh air. New York is too crowded," she concluded.

This past year, Ginger studied modeling for three months with the Betty lane School of Charm and Modeling, and, needless to say, her instructor Mrs. Gramling is ecstatically pleased that Ginger has made the initial step toward the "big time." Ginger said her first trip bark to Orangeburg will be for a weekend in August when she will be on hand for a friend's wedding.
