Judges Select Girl to Represent Indianapolis in Beauty Tournament > Miss Thelma Blossom to Have Honor of Appearing as “Miss Indianapolis” in Pageant at Famous Beach Resort. Meet "Miss Indianapolis”—Miss Thelma Blossom. The committee of judges, after m uch time and study, today officially announced Miss Blossom, daughter o f Mr. and Mrs. R. E. Blossom of t'S54 X. Illinois St., is entitled to the title of “Miss Indianapolis.” Selection was made from photographs of nearly 200 entrants. The honor of representing Indianapolis and the State as well at the Atlantic City Beauty Tournament falls upon a girl who seems to radiate • the very' spirit of the city.
Miss Blossom is a graduate of Short ridge High School and while ihere was noted for her beauty. She graduated with highest honors at LaSalle and attended the exclusive Ward-Belmont School for Girls in Nashville, Tenn. At present she is a Senior at Wisconsin University and last year had ihe honor of standing highest among the members of her sorority chapter. She is a member of the Pi Beta Phi Sorority. She is well known and !>opular with the younger society folk of the city. Miss Blossom plays tennis, golf and enjoys swimming. A love for the great outdoors is blended with a high scholastic standing. She has made a chum and wonderful companion of her mother. Her grandfather. W. W. Baker, is a retired business man of this city. Formally Accepts Award In formally accepting the honor of representing her home city. Miss Blossom said: "I accept the honor and feel keenly the task which lies before me. I am going into the Atlantic City Pageant to win for my home city." Miss Blossom announces that she will enter the leading events at the Atlantic City tournament, including the rolling chair parade, the bathers' revue and the grand ball. Miss Blossom will leave Indianapolis for Atlantic City on Labor Day afternoon with Mrs. C. Rnltare Eggleston, the official chaperon of "Miss Indianapolis.” "I am sure Miss Thelma Blossom will not only reflect the highest credit upon Indianapolis, but that she will be declared the most beautiful girl at the pageant and will be awarded the beautiful Golden Mermaid reward, which is valued at $£.000,” Mrs. Eggleston states. “Miss Indianapolis" and Mrs. Eggleston will travel In finest style on a fast Pennsylvania train. Representatives of the railroad will meet them in North Philadelphia to see that they arrive safely and on time at Atlantic City on Tuesday afternoon. Sept. 5. Mrs. R. E. Blossom, mother of “Miss Indianapolis.” not only has the interests of her charming and talented daughter at heart, but she hopes her daughter will be able to carry the name of Indianapolis to victory at Atlantic City. She will do everything in her power to make all of United States justly proud of "Miss Indianupolis.” Committee of Eight Choose The selection of “Miss Indianapolis” -vas in the hands of the following representative committee: Mrs Mvra Richards, nationally known sculptress: Mrs. Felix T. McWhirter, prominent in society and civic enterprises; Mile. Theo. Hewes. instructor in classical dancing and the ballet: Miss Margaret Scott, writer and founder of the InVar Society: Stuart Wajker, I)r. Harry G. Hill, president of the Indiana College of Music and Fine Arts: Dr. Robert J. Aley, president of Butler College. and Col. John B. Reynolds, secretary of the Indianapolis Chamber of Commerce. Speaking for the committee, Mrs. McWhirter said: “There were many lovely girls entered. It is too bad that all could not win, but that is impossible. It Is a compliment and a great honor to the city of Indianapolis to have so many lovely girls desiring to represent their home city. I feel that Miss Blossom reflects all the characteristics which makes her an ideal Miss Indianapolis.” Difficult Task to Decide The committee spent much time in the preliminary as well as the final selection. It was far from an easy task to carefully examine the photographs of all the entrants, but the committee, with true Indianapolis spirit, went to the job and all feel that Miss Thelma Blossom Is an ideal “Miss Indianapolis.” The Times Pageant Editor expresses the highest admiration for the support Indianapolis mothers, friends and relatives gave him during the many busy weeks since the quest began. All could not be winners. Now let’s boost “Miss Indianapolis” to greater victory at Atlantic City. Because of the great amount of clerical work involved, the Pageant Editor will not attempt to start returning photographs of entrants until the latter part of next week. Marriage ala Mode Our modem custom of throwing shoes at a wedding may be an outgrowth of an old practice, still followed in Egypt, which requires the father to give his new son-in-law a slipper. A woman is regarded as property and the exchange of the slipper denotes that the authority over the woman now passes from the father to the husband.

In fact, I have never hurried so fast before in my life!” "Indeed?” Raggedy Ann questioned. “Why are you in such haste, Mister Unk Timothy Turtle?” Raggedy Andy wished to know as he wiggled one shoe button eye at Raggedy Ann. "Well,” said Old Mister Unk Timothy Turtle, as he knocked the ashes out of his pipe, "Terrence Terrapin just ran over and told me that he and Theresa Terrapin had sixteen children, and I am running over to see them, and if I don’t hurry. I’ll never get there.” “Were they just hatched this morning?” asked Raggedy Andy. “Lawsy, no,” Old Mister Unk Timothy Turtle replied. , “They were hatched last summer. You see, it took Terrence Terrapin nine months’ fast traveling to get to my house to tell me all about it, and that’s why I’m a-hurrying so.
