EVENING PUBLIC
Miss Indianapolis
Is Pageant Winner
Centlnnrd from Tu On
selection of the three national evening
gowned prize winners. Men, woman
and children filled aisles, sat en the
piano and clamored outside the hall en
the window ledges. The eight judges
grouped themselves en the small stage.
They were August William Hutnff,
chairman ; IVIlly I'egany, Nerman
Keckweli, Heward Chandler Christy,
Dr. Arneld Oentlia, Jeseph Cummlngs
Chnse, Celes Phillips and Heyworth
Campbell, all painters or illustrators.
Charmers Pass Before Jury
Competing charmers came upon the
stage from n golden-fan nnd passed be
fore the jury in alphabetical order ac
cording te the cities they represent.
The audience, believing that It might
Influence the jury, applauded with var
ying degrees of violence.
Hut the jury proved unaffected. It
coely looked the Aphredites up and
down, examining closely the color of
tBelr hair.
Celes Phillips seemed te specialize en
the legs, along with Heward Chandler
Christy. Jeseph Cummlngs Chase didn't
seem te be satisfied at all until he
lifted the hair of each of the beauties
and inspected the right ear. It was
nil a fascinating precadure. but rather
grueling for the blushing competitors.
The method of the judges was that of
elimination. They cut flown fifty
seven te fourteen, and asked that
smaller number te parade gracefully
for them all ever again.
These fourteen were "Miss Wash
ington," Evelyn C. Lewis, in yellew:
"Miss Detroit," "Miss Columbus."
"Miss Cleeelnnd." in blue satin ; "Miss
Indianapolis." "Miss Dayton." Helen
Frances Smith, in pink, with n blue
feather fan; "Miss San Francisce,"
Tannsln Znra. In n gown of burnished
geld, with long yellow ostrich feathers
at her ears nnd waist; "Miss Seattle,"
Evelyn Atkinson, marble white and
statuesque: "Miss Bosten." Charlette
Trowbridge, In pink; "Miss Chester," i
Anna .Marie Ilurke, In angelic white:
"Miss Chicago," Georgia Hale, in rich
lilnrk I "Ml Wllmini'ffm " A A.lel..
j Senft, a gentle miss with long brown
curls; ".Miss .xaslivllle, ' Sue Iturten,
a picpiant brunette in wine-colored red,
and "Miss Portland." Virginia Ed
wards, in tangerln and geld.
"Miss Dayton's" Hair Bobbed
Among these maidens but one had
bobbed hair. "Miss Dayton." The
judges worried ever the four nnd ten
for a space, with the audience becom
ing mere and mere uncontrollable. The
Reading and Pennsylvania Hail read
con. blued glees sang a snatch or two
te tone down the Impatient spectators.
And the judges proceeded te cut down
the number te a final three, naming
"Miss Cleveland" and "Miss Wash
ington" for honorable mention.
Outside the pier, toward the close
of the judgment of two hours nnd n
half, a rear of artillery sent the spec
tators panicky for n brief moment. But
It was only the nnvtil battle of fire
works scheduled te close a day of un
usual activity for the beauties, and the
beauties never saw even one fleeting
pyrotechnic.
They were tee busy, packed like
sardines behind the setting en the
judges' stnge. And it leads one te
wonder, after nil. what joy Is in the
life of Intercity beauties. They work
harder, they are permitted te be less
themselves, than the attendants who

Seven Divisions In Review
Nine bathing exquisites will be se-
leeted three from nu.eng intercity
beauties, three from amateur and three
from professional beauties.

divisions. First division will be for
men, second for children, third for gro gre
tesiiuerles, fourth for representatives of
business organizations, fifth for inter
city beauties, six for women who ure
net en the stage or in motion pictures,
seventh for women who are.
Nine winners from the last three dl-
visions will be judged en the stnge
at the Steel Pier tonight, and three
of them selected. This trio will com
pete against "Miss America," Mnr

LEDGER - PHILADELPHIA. FRIDAY,
Crowd Gather te Cheer
Pinchot as He Passes
By a Btaff Corretpendtnt
Lewlstewn. Pa., Sept. '8. At
many points along the read groups
of men end women gather and cheer
Gilferd Pinchot as he passes. The
Ferester Is popular in this section of
the State. One reason for this is
that the people have evidence at
hand of the kind of work he can
de, All along the read are posted
signs urging rare of the forests and
prevention of forest fires. These
were put up under the Pinchot re
gime as Ferester at Harrlsburg.
Perhape the most enthusiastic re
ception enme when the Pinchot
party metered Inte Lewlstewn
where the candidate addressed
an overflow meeting. As the Pin
chot car swung Inte the town,
whistles and automobiles, factories
and ether places began sounding a
loud and Insistent welcome.
Pinchot te Center

lng right straight hack te you as I am
here today.
Applause Greets Nominee
"1 want you te remember this. This
is n serious matter, most serious. If
I get into trouble, I am coming back
te you. If I need your help I'm coming
back te you te get It. I don't want
your vote unless veu mean te back me
up. This Is serious business. I re
peat, se that there can be no mistake.
If I get into trouble, following your
orders, I am coming right ajtraigbt back
te you for help."
Waves of applause greeted the nomi
nee. Many of the voters in this part of
the State were the backbone of the
lioesevnlt movement ten years age.
Thev like u fight and n fighter. They
nre particularly gleeful ever the un
precedented prospect of a Governer get
ting into n reel open fight with a boss
controlled Legislature.
Seme of the things In the Pinchot
platform for which he intends te fight.
if necessary, are reorganization of the
State Government ; a budget system ; n
simplification of finances of the Stnte:
the driving out of saloons tretu Penn
sylvania, which means the repeal of the
Brooks High License law and a sure
fight with the liquor interests and their
political allies; the driving out of boot
legging ; the maintenance of the direct
primary ; the holding down of expenses
within estimated revenue, nnd in gen
eral the getting of u dollar's worth for
every dollar spent.
Stands By Entire Platform
Never before has a nominee for Gov Gov
ereor in Pennsylvania se plainly an
nounced his stand or stated it se un
equivocally. In pest campaigns, guber
natorial candidates have thought they
were doing a geed day's campaigning
if they thrilled their audiences with
emotional descriptions of the glory and
the greatness of the Keystone State. At
most they spoke but vaguely of scotch
ing the boss. But Pinchot says he stands
four-square en every plank of h!s prim
ary platform, without the slightest con
cession te any boss or special interest.
"I stand bv ull of my platform,"
thundered Pinchot. "I mean just ex
actly that. I may find it necesjwry at
uny lime during the next four years te
come bnck te you and again put up the
question te you, nnd by the Lord Harry
that's exactly what I'll de."
At all times, lie said, he would make a
special appeal te the women voters.
"I'm for the maintenance of the
direct primnry and the protection of the
rights of women voters," said the For Fer
ester, adding: "I would net have been
nominated but for the women."
In connection with his campaign t
win legislative support, Pinchot ad
dressing the open air throng at the
Stnte Grunge encampment at Center
Hall yesterday said that Harry B.
Scott, "candidate for the State Senate
in Center County, had premised te
bnck him up at Hurrisburg. Scott Is
an organization leader.
Scott for "Seme of Program"
When asked later hew far he would
go In backing up the Pinchot program,
Scott replied :
"I'm for some of the Pinchot pro
gram, of course. There nre some
things, however, which I would have te
tulk ever with blm."
It is this kind of situation which
gives force te the Pinchot plun of going
ever the bends of the legislators. If
necessary, and appealing directly te
the people.
A tremendous reception greeted Pin
chot at the grange encampment. Jehn
A. McSnarran, his Democratic rival,
was en the grounds at the time, but the
Ferester was the attraction. Republi
can headquarters were near Democratic
headquarters. McSparran shook hands
with the overflow of the crowd meeting
Pinchot.
Although Pinchot nnd McSpargan
were within a few feet of each ether,
they did net meet. McSparran heard the
Pinchot speech nnd then walked awny.
Colonel David T. Davis, nominee for
Lieutenant Governer, is traveling with
Pinchot. In honor of Colonel Davis,
former commander of the American
Legien In Pennsylvania, the officers'
club of the Twenty -eighth Division
gave an al fresco luncheon en the estate
of Cojenel Theodere D. Benl. of Boals Beals
burg, yesterday. Among the officers
present were Adjutant General Earl
Bcary. Brigadier General E. C. Shan Shan
eon, Majer General W. G. Price and
Colonel W. J. Crooksten.
