The Crowning of Helen of Troy The identity of Helen of Troy was revealed by the Inter- fraternity Council at the Ball held at Peony Park on No- vember 6. Carol Bisgaard, representing Phi Rho Sigma medical fraternity, was crowned queen at the informal dance by Bill Davis, president of the Interfraternity Council. The events leading up to the selection of Helen of Troy began with the tea held in honor of the candidates chosen by the fraternities. In the penthouse of the Blackstone Hotel, candidates and Interfraternity Council members enjoyed refreshments before the final interviewing of the candidates took place. The Council members took their places in a semi-circle, and the candidates were called before them to be judged on poise and personality. The candidates were asked to ex- press their opinions on matters ranging from world affairs to marriage and various aspects of student life.
