All these girls were new to Mayfield and in some cases came from other states. Ginny was a transfer from Minneapolis and Cynda was a transfer from somewhere. All new girls in town.

I didn't know the paper girl was new in town. I think Betsy the autobiography writer was new. Mayfield is a popular place.
Ah, yes. Mary Tyler. Another girl who was sooo nice to Beaver.

Oh yeah I forgot Betsy Carter who wrote Beaver’s autobio. She should be added to the list. Good one. I forget where she was from.
The paper girl says being new to the town she didn’t know all the addresses. In the beginning Beaver does mention how a new kid in town got the job and she is his sister.

Also in Don Juan Beaver I forgot the new girl from So Carolina, Melinda Neilson who wants Beaver to take her to the dance.

Oh and representing the males how about the mustached Wayne Gregory who set Julie’s heart a flutter. He was called a transfer student. The way he touched his mustache was so overdone.

Right...so as to not forget the males, let's also list Terry Richmond, another insufferable jerk.
