Show Miss Carol Huss was chosen by the student body to reign as Home Coming Queen. This five-foot-three brunette takes an active part in all Weber events and carries that dainty little smile into the hearts of all who know her. As secretary of the Student Body, Miss Shirley Chambers was voted Miss Collegiate in a contest sponsored by Alpha Rho Omega. Shirley has brown eyes and dark hair, and her five-foot-four stature carries one of the most lively spirits at Weber. The expressive, wide eyes of Miss Phyllis Parker are well known in theatrical circles. She was chosen by Phoenix as Queen of their Snowball and as their Sweetheart for the corning year. Filled with talent, Phyllis stands five foot five and one-half inches and has long, dark hair. Excelsior was proud to have Miss Jean Nelson (who later became Mrs. Junior Palmer) chosen by Tyrone Power to preside as Sweetheart at the annual Valentine Ball. The five-foot-eight-inch figure, black hair, and brown eyes couldn't help but win Jean this honor. |
