IF udges Gh: “Oh, no! I’ve forgotten my gloves!” and a dear roommate was sent rushing back to the dorm. It was definitely the night ' of the Beauty-Cutie Contest! Twenty Beauties and twenty | Cuties, sponsored by the different campus orgaizations were | prepared for the big occasion. The Cuties were decked im casual and collegiate skirts and | sweaters and charming smiles. They were to be judged by the audience, and they stepped vivaciously across the stage to the tune of a jingle especially composed for them by their sponsor- ing club. BEE ain I | Meanwhile, the beauties, elegant in evening dresses, con- tented themselves by tugging at each other’s dresses and poking | at stray whisps of hair, knowing they were on the stage next. | They had met the three judges at a tea and dinner that after- | | } | noon; but that didn’t help them feel much calmer. The feeling of “being watched” was all too real. . Finally the contest was ended. Then came the hardest | part of all—waiting for the decisions which would be announced at the Christmas dance. Intermission time at the dance found many excited and anxious observers on the sidelines. Miss Martha Dean Chestnut, Miss South Carolina of 1956, crowned | Miss Marian McKnight, Beauty Queen, and Miss Sara Jean Long, Cutie Queen. As the queens and the six girls chosen for each court stood together around the Christmas tree, the by- | standers realized what a difficult job the judges had in making | their choice.
