By CD MISURELL COME Saturday night. Sept. 11. the "Miss America Pageant," a program that captures more viewers than any other in television, will be telecast from 10 p.m. to midnight for the ninth consecutive year over the CBS network. Today’s professionally shck pageant, sponsored at great cost by big companies and bigger corporations, is the proverbial far cry from the first Miss America contest which took place in 1921. At that time a group of eastern newspaper managers conceived the idea of running contests to select the most popular young girl in each of their cities. As a prize, the winner of each of the competitions was to receive a week’s vacation in Atlantic City, NJ.
• • •
AFTER a number of conferences the Hotelmen's Association and a group of civic leaders agreed to participate. A committee was formed to run the first Atlantic City contest during the week following Labor Day. A local reporter, Herb Test, suggested that the winner of the bathing revue contest be known as "Miss America.” The 1921 competition was held on the beach with some eight cities and states participating. Contestants came from Pittsburgh, Washington, Camden, New York, Harrisburg, Philadelphia, Octtui City and Newark, and were judged for beauty of face and form. The winner was a 16-year-old, blueeyed blonde named Margaret Gorman of Washington, D.C. Her statistics — the first of many to find their way into the nation’s newspapers — were: height, five feet, one inch, bust, 30 inches; waist 25 inches; hips, 32 inches; weight, 108 pounds. She was the smallest girl ever to capture the much soughtafter crown.
• • •
THE POPULARITY With which the contest was greeted did not go unnoticed by civic leaders in the New Jersey resort city. By September 1922, St was better organized. Among the competitive divisions that year were an amateur bathing beauty contest, a professional bathing beauty contest, and an inter-city bathing beauty contest. The winner in this latter category, who was awarded the Miss America title, was Mary Catherine Campbell of Columbus, Ohio.

The winner’s trophy consisted of a black teakwood base with a gold mermaid lyipg on a piece of granite rock, surrounded by a series of gold seashells. It was valued at $5,000. It wras intended as a perpetual trophy. The previous Miss America w-as to be invited back to protect her title, and if she won three years in succession was to keep the award permanently. Miss America 1922 repeated her triumph In 1923, defeating some 57 inter-city contestants, all of w’hom had been selected by newspapers. In 1924, the year in which The Most Beautiful Girl in Evening Dress event was introduced, Mary Catherine Campbell lost to Ruth Malcomson of Philadelphia. This prompted the Pageant board of directors to change their policy regarding winners. They decided to present each previous Miss America title holder with a trophy, and to limit a winner'* reign to one
year.
During the Tate 1920s, the pageant continued to grow. But money problems and the depression that hit the world prompt-
ed its cancellation in 1928 and it wasn’t held again until 1933. Again financial problems arose and the contest was discontinued for a year. Revived again in 1935, it has continued without interruption up to the present. With the growth of the pageant came bigger prizes for the winners. Since 1945 when the scholarship program was created by executive director Leonora Slaughter, a total of $675,975 has been awarded to winners at the national finals in Atlantic City. In the same 20-year period, the 3,500 local and state pageants have distributed more than $5,000,000 m scholarship monies. The climactic moment draws close. As midnight approaches on Sept. 11, Vonda Kay Van Dyke, of Phoenix. Ariz., Miss America 1965, will place the crown upon the head of one of the beauties from 50 states. As the lovely winner walks up the long runway in Convention Hall in Atlantic City', millions of viewers will once again hear the lilting but exciting strains of the familiar melody—/There She Is—Miss America."

In many instances attacks of pain and swelling of the joints come and go, apparently without reason. Sometimes an attack is set off by an acute infection or even by severe emotional stress. Osteoarthritis is a disease that occurs most in middle-aged and elderly people. Changes occur in many of the joints of the body and limit them in their complete comfortable movement. • • • Q.

But Steelman can remember when a $1 bill was a lot of
money in his pocket.
As a boy Steelman spent most of his time hunting and fishing and it was only natural . that he would be devoted to the
wide open space.
So he took his first job in 1930 on an outdoors project, working for the American Bridge Co. The pay was not high but it was a start. “After four years I wanted to move into another area so I got into the TV A,” Steelman said. “I had two years of won-

In this study, many of the cases were benefited most by Indomethacin. This drug, as with all new drugs, is being carefully observed for any possible toxic effects on patients. Safety is the most important factor in all scientific research. The drug is being critically evaluated even though the present feeling is that it is a promising one for victims of arthri-
