SHE CAN COOK
HAM AND CABBAGE
American Queen of Beauty for 1922
Knows the Kitchen.
Special to The Times.
By Robert Fuller.

Special to The Times.
| BY Robert Fuller.
Atlantic City, N. J.-Being beau
tiful does not take all of ones time
One can be beautiful and still be
quite intimate with kitchen utensils
Mary Katherine Campbell, of Col
umbus, Ohio, says so-and Mary
ought to know.
Miss Campbell is a 16-year-old
school girl and daughter of Mr.. and
Mrs. Herman R. Campbell. She has
just been crowned Queen of American
Beauty for 1922. She plides herself
that she can cook a well-seasoned dish
of ham and cabbage.
Miss Campbell was picked as
Americas most beautiful girl from a
group of ITO prize winners repre-
senting as many different towns and
cities in the United States.
The competition was the annua.
Beauty Pageant at Atlantic City. She
WAS entered as Miss Columbus.
Her Ideal Man.
Miss Campbell is a wholesome, mid
Western miss just out of high school.
She swims, rides, dances and helps
mother cook. She is S #. in. in
height and weighs 1873 pounds.
Marriage, she blushingly admits, is
at least years away-although she
confessed proposals already.
The man of her dreams-well, he
should be tall, slightly interested in
athletics, good-humored, and not TOO
handsome. He can be either rich or
poor-if she loves him.
New American Type.
Coles Phillips, famous American
illustrator and artist, and one of the
judges in the contest, said of Miss
Campbell:
"Years ago the nation was thrilled
by the so-called Gibson Girl. In the
last few years two types of beauties
have usurped her place. These are
the type that Flo Ziegfeld has ex-
plotted, and the Mary Pickford type.
"Neither of these girls in my
opinion really typifies the American
girl. Instead, l should say she more
nearly approximates Miss CampbeIl's
appearance. The type I mean Is
rather tall, with straight lines, broad
shoulders, free swing to her body,
and clear intelligent race. She is
rather athletic.
GAS a matter of fact, measure
ments mean really nothing. Pro-
portion is much more important. At
any, rate, the type / have described
is seen to the highest degree in Miss
Campbell. Artists, by TIE way, say
that the type is produced most gener-
ally in the Middle West. The beauties
We're judged from three points--in
evening gown, bathing suit and gem
eral appearance.

CONFERENCE GAME
Deroat5 Wheaton Football Team 3s
To 0. Mourglia was Local Star.
By Burt johnson.

NloHtIl uclcdIeu wheaton COudIs
before a crowd estimated at sir
/ hundred, by the score of SO to 0. This
| is the first conference game of the
season for Monet, and if the con.-
| parison of this game with that Of last
year, which was played with Wheaton
is any indication, Monet will be
champion for another year. Wheaton
has much better team this year than
last but still the score was about the
same. Last year it was 38 to O.
Both teams played straight foot
ball. The pass was used eleven times
during the game but they We're all
incomplete, except one made by eacf
side. The kicking of both teams was
about even, the average being about
thirty yards. The game was alss
remarkably free of fumbling. Monett
made downs eleven times and lost OF
downs seven times. Wheaton made
downs five times and lost on downs
thirteen times. Each side lost the
bali once on intercepted passes.
The star of the game was Mourglia
Monett center. There was not muci
to choose between Hulse, Estes, Steele
and Shepherd for second honors iis
the line. Miller also played a bril-
liant game at right half. Boss play
ed heady game at quarter. Hover
ton and Beatty played good SMASH
ing and defensive game. Bayless, Me-
Clellan and Dickson did the best
work for Wheaton, on both the of
fensive and defensive.
During the first quarter the bali
was never in Monett's territory. Mo-
nett made twelve points during this
period. Miller made them both on
long left end runs, the first one be-
ing for fifty yards, and the next for
twenty yards after the ball had been
advanced by repeated plays throug\
the line. NJ
The first points of the second ar
ter were made by a tweiity~fiW
drop Rick by Miller, Beatty ytsss.S
more to the Monet total, al ia 1.59s
ball had been placed on the t.
line, by plunge through center.
During the third quarter the ball
was in the middle of the field all the
time except at the close of the period.
Wheaton Intercepted a pass ard made
a ten yard gain. They then made
downs and good gain by the forward
pass method. They made their mex
down and then lost the ball on fun
BILE. They were at their high tide then
twenty yards from the Monett goa.
Monett made two more touchdowna
in the last period. A
short pass from Beatty and
fifteen yard run by Miller accounted
for the first touchdown. Wheaton
made a thirty yard pun. from their
ten yard line. Miller reulned it for
the last score Of the game.
When Coach Warren saw that Mo-
nett had the game sewed up, he ran in
several of the Monett Substitutes for
a try-out.
Monett's next game is with Miller
at Monet.
Coach Hurd of Wheaton, commen,-
ing on the game said, "Munett is play
ing better football this year than this
time last year. That's peach of
line" Coach Warren, Pm surprised
at the good showing the team made.
It's good start toward another
championship"
