Snow is the dominant factor in the shot of Gretchen Brown, Snow Queen for 1960-61, as she is seen on a snowy day in front of the school. 1960-61 SNOW QUEEN December 10, Gretchen Brown was crowned Miss Snow Queen in the gymnasium, which was decorated in the traditional green and red by the Student Council for this gala affair that was attended by over 200 students. Miss Brown was attired in a balerina length white silk gown, accented with a green and orange cumberbund. Fred Holt, who attends Georgia Tech, was her escort. All of the Queen's attendants were seniors. They were: Joyce Frazier, escorted by Bill Garrett; Barbara Haynes, escorted by Cris Pringle; Pat Landers, escorted by Gary Fisher; Diann Groves, escorted by Ervin Beckman, and Judy Stanley, escorted by Steve Freese. When asked how she felt about receiving this honor, Miss Brown said, I was com- pletely surprised. I didn't dream it could be me. Last year’s Snow Queen was Nancy Stone, who is attending Anderson College in Indiana. Snow, snow, and more snow in the Snow Queen and her attendants: Judy Stanley, Pat Landers, Barbara Ramsey, Gretchen Brown (queen), Joyce FYazier, Diann Groves and Barbara Haynes.
