POPULAR DYER COUNTY GIRL CHOSEN AS DESOTO SPONSOR First Place Goes to Miss Thelma Ramsey in 1923 Annual Contest Miss Thelma Ramsey, popular daughter of Prof, and Mrs. H. C. Ramsey of Puryea r, Ten- nessee, was chosen as Sponsor for the 1923 De Soto in the contest held recently for that purpose by the managers of the publication. In accordance with the contest rules, each of the two girls ' literary societies was allowed a single candidate — Miss Ramsey was the Kappa Lambda Sigma choice, while Miss Josephine Conger represented the Sigma Alpha Mu So- ciety. The votes were cast on a basis of 1 00 for the candidate desired, with each annual purchased. The race was very close and ex- citing and full of thrills from beginning to end. Miss Ramsey was finally acclaimed winner by the narrow margin of 2,050 votes. Thelma, the pretty winner, is just 1 7 years of age and is a native of West Tennessee. Be- fore coming to Normal she attended Unionville High School in Dyer County, where she attain- ed many scholastic honors, especially in ex- pression. The last year she attended the Un- ionville school she made the exceptionally high average of 90 per cent for the entire term. She has been the recipient of many honors as result of her talent in expression and has re- peatedly won valuable prizes at various West Tennessee inter-scholastic meets. Aside from being one of the fairest and most talented of Sunny Tennessee ' s sunniest daugh- ters, Miss Ramsey is known and liked by her legions of friends, as a perfect type of viva- cious, athletic girlhood. She runs, rides, romps, swims, plays tennis, basketball, and does countless other things, beautifully. Normal is proud of her as a member of the 1922-2 3 basketball champs, particularly. The student body is to be complimented on its acumen in selecting the beautiful poised, and talented sponsor of this DeSoto — Miss Thelma Ramsey, who is beloved by Normal School.
