Showing a safe impartiality, Bandleader Art Jarrett chose three blondes and three brunettes
from the sixteen Texas State College for Women beauties who paraded before him on the stage
of the Pan-American Casino last fall. •
The'chosen six are Misses Alice Bryan, Shanghai, China; Lucy Nelle, Dallas; Jeanne Hansen J
Plainview; Joan Ladd, Sherman; Ruth Martin, Denton; and Lets Ruth Eidson, Stanton.
Four nominees from each class were introduced at the Revue, from which Jarrett selected onej

hance the traditional presentation of beauties at the Spring Senior Formal. Each of the girls has a
