' WinneF of Beauity Confesi MARY BAKER, L. H. S., ’37 On Friday, April 10, 193 6, there was a Beauty Contest at Schuyler High School, Schuyler, Virginia. It consisted of contestants from four counties, namely, Nelson, Campbell, Albemarle, and Amherst. There were forty- eight entries but due to the dreadful weather only twenty-eight of the beauties” arrived. Mr. Delk, our principal, selected Mary Baker, a junior, as our school representative. There were three out-of-town judges who showed their excellent ability in choosing, as the win¬ ner, Mary Baker. Sheriff and Mrs. K. M. Baker, Mary’s parents, were very much pleased with the result of the contest; and the nicest thing of all is that Mary is our same dear Mary, because her winning the beauty contest has not made her vain. The cup had engraved upon it: Mary Baker Winner of Beauty Contest Schuyler High School Schuyler, Virginia. Her picture has appeared in the Washington Post, Baltimore Sun and one of the Richmond papers. Kathleen Dawson, ’3 5. MY CREED (Second Prize) 1. I believe in God, our Father. 2.
