Margaret Speaks, radio soprano, Celius Dougherty and Vincenz Ruzicka, duo pianists, acted as judges of tiie annual Tomahawk beauty contest, held at the Fontenelle Hotel April 20. The winners are Dorothy Thompson, first place; Eleanor Steinman, second place; and Kay Kirkbride, third place. A total of eleven girls were nominated by sororities and Independents. No pictures were used; the judges made their selections by personal appearance and poise. The judges retired for twenty minutes before arriving at a decision; they afterward declared that it was easier to give eleven concerts than judge these eleven girls. Other entrants in the contest were Eileen Jones, Gamma Sigma Omicron; Betty Haupt and Beverly Nielson, Kappa Psi Delta; Virginia Barnt and Genevive Trotter, Phi Delta Psi; Marilyn Alley and Shirley Loechner, Pi Omega Pi; and Frances Martin, Independent.
