Show Auburn-haired, brown-eyed, and well-dressed is Miss Betty Midgley, who was chosen as Calico Queen at Skull's annual Barn Dance. Sincerity and friendliness characterize Betty's personality. Whenever you see a group of laughing people, you have an almost sure bet that Miss Erma Adams will be in the middle of it. Erma, who is blond and five foot three inches tall, was voted by the girls as Weber College's most Friendly Girl. Miss Louise Hobbs has the distinction of receiving two titles this year. First, she was chosen by our city fathers as Weber's Best Dressed Co-ed in a contest sponsored by Alpha Rho Omega. Following this, Alpha Rho entered Louise in Sigma Delta Pi's annual Bathing Beauty contest to determine who should hold the title of Miss Weber. Louise was the winner in that contest too. A tiny five foot two and one-half inches with blue eyes, she has a way of adding small touches to her clothes to make them special. |
