was great decrease in the number
Of girls seeking fame and fortune in
Hollywood and that they no longer

A roll call OF the array used in an

that the young bellies we're still val

widely separated centers.
Cities, towns and villages in dis

resented among the girls who were
finally chosen, and two even came
from foreign parts. For the pageant,
which was filmed in color with the
newest tinting process, more than 500
girls we're interviewed, and 347 tests
were made OF those who were not
eliminated In the early wedding out
process All these girls proved to
have hailed from divergent quarters.

high points of feminine loneliness typ
