Description: DM2000071817:SAED: BEAUTY:NOV 1952 - Cover Girl's Story - Miriam Dhlamini, 22-year-old domestic servant tells of her dreams, romances,and success. "I was born in Prospect Township, Johannesburg, in 1930. You won't find it there now, it has ben demolished to make way for the Kazerne goodsshed. It was waht one could call an ideal home, and when I was three my parents thought some clean country air would do me more good than the smog there. So I was bundled off to Frankfort in Free State to live with my grandmother. Pensive Beauty Miriam Dhlamini likes sports. Not only to look at them being played, but to play herself - She swings a racquet every Thursday afternoon at the Bantu Sports club. Don't go and disturb her, though, you wolves! An aspiring nurse and musician, Miriam definitely doesn't want to marry-yet! (Photograph by Jurgen Schaderberg © Baileys Archives) neg187 cover girl story
