Thirty Girls
Enter Contest
To Select May Queen
Beauty Pageant Will Be Held In
Drayton Hall Monday
Night
Seeking the highest honor bestowed
upon Carolina co-eds, 30 young ladies,
the cream of the sorority and non-so
'ority crop, will enter the annual Kappa
Sigma Kappa beauty pageant in Dray
ton Hall Monday night. Three candi
ddates will then be selected to run for
May Queen.
The young lady who receives the most
votes at the polls will be crowned queen
of the May at the picturesque coronation
staged shortly after the first of May.
The two losing candidates will be maids
of honor at the exercises.
The election will be conducted in the
same manner that it was last year, except
names of the entries will not be published.
This, in the opinion of many co-eds, will
cut out any use of political machinery.
Three unknown, out-of-town, judges
will attend the pageant and select three
candidates. The candidates who receives
a majority of votes at the election will
become May Queen for Carolina's 1936
school year.
