'I Voted for Each of You,' the Judge Said
Animation and informality were the rules last night at the final judging for the "Best Dressed Coed at KU." Contestants and judges found that conversation was no problem since it was the casual mood that prevailed.
Television station WIBW, Topeka, sent a crew to take films of the contestants which will be released Monday after The Daily Kansan has announced the winner of the contest.
Contestants from 16 organized women's houses chatted for an hour and a half with the five judges. They drank coffee, munched cookies and seemed to be relaxed and enjoying themselves.
Pictured from left to right are Mrs. Ann Laptad, instructor of physical education, judge; Sondra McIntosh, Chapman junior, Delta Gamma; Charlotte Stryker, Topeka junior, GSP Upperclass; Mary McCammon, King City, Mo., sophomore, Alpha Omicron Pi, and Betty Branson, Kansas City, Mo., sophomore, Pi Betta Phi.
The winner of the University of
Kansas contest will be a contestant in Glamour magazine's "10 Best Dressed College Girls" contest. She will compete with girls from other universities and schools.
If the KU winner is selected as a national winner she will be flown to New York in August where she will make television appearances and appear in the "Back to School" issue of Glamour magazine.
