Contest.

Miss Malvin Boudreaux of Houma,

Brookhaven, Miss, are The best dan
GERS at Newcomb College, "a commit
tee of judges decided Friday after
noon.
And as result of that fact, the
Golfers of the European Children's
Relief Fund are fuller by more than
$780,, pennies, dimes and nickels,
with here and there a bill of small
denomination.
For a week the contest for the
best dancers at Newcomb has been
the center of interest, meaning, of
course, modern ballroom dancing
and not the kind done by the an
cient Greeks around Mount Parnas-
sus. The girls toddled and tripped
throughout their lunch hours for the
benefit of the poor tots across the
way, and even paid for the privi-
lege, sacrificial nickels for each
dance. The contest was conducted
by the method of elimination. Blue
ribbons we're awarded to the last
three couples to remain on the floor
and box, of candy went to each OF
the winners Times Picayune.
