THE DAILY COLLEGIAN, STATE COLLEGE, PENNSYLVANIA
Spring Queen
'Just the Baby'
Of the Family
Blonde, blue-eyed Mary Anne
Hanna, Miss Penn State of 1950,
is just the "baby of the family."
The youngest in her family and
being called the "baby" of almost
any group, has made Mary Anne a
little age conscience. However,
she did admit that she was 20.
Other - vital statistics about the
queen are: height 5' 7", weight 130
lbs. Since she -is a junior in the
School of Physical Education,
Mary Anne has a few of her class
es with
_members of the football
squad.
"At Christmas time I had a knee
operation, si:o for a while I had to
walk using a cane," she said.
"That's when I had to take all the
kidding about being in the same
category: , as the , injured football
players.
May- Queen
Participating, in queen contests
is nothing new to Mary Anne.
Last year she was May Queen at
Blackstone Junior College, Black
stone, Va., and this spring she was
a junior attendant for the Penn
State May Queen, Lorraine Stit
ler.
She hails from Lewistown and
is an active Member of the Swim
ming Club, the circulation staff of
Froth, and Kappa Alpha Theta
sorority.
As far as food favorites go, it's
strictly a meat diet for Mary
Anne. Heading the list is ham and
lamb; with turkey. and chicken
running close seconds. Egg plaid
and •stewed rhubard lead her list
of ledst-liked foods.' Her favorite
sport is swimming, and, she is an
avid spectator at football and bas
ketball gairies.

Weekend Wardrobe
Poses Coed Problem
With Spring Weekend already upon'us, no doubt the Pena
State coed has already given much thought to her weekend
wardrobe. Before planning for Senior Ball tonight, though,
she's probably dragged her hat wardrobe from the closet.
For Hat Day is here, and she knows that her chapeau, be it
ridiculous or revolting, might win a prize. And, who knows,
Lily Dache might even copy the campus queen's innovation.

BY PEG KING
As evening • approaches, every
Penn State male will be con
vinced he's dating the belle of the
ball when his favored female ap
pears on the scene. Dancing to
the music of Spivak she'll wear
her newest gown, whether it be
organdy, marquisette, net, lace;
ballerina length or floor length. If
her gown is a ballerina, the odds
are that her slippers will be opera
pumps dyed to match the dress.
Come Saturday, the campus
patrol will rest in peace, if only
for a few hours. Everyone will
leave town on a picnic at Whipples
Dam or some other favored place.
Plaid shirts and jeans will be the
conventional attire , of all Penn
Staters as they head in droves for
the great out-of-doors. Should our
typical coed choose to wear a
cotton rather than jeans, she'll
doubtlessly add to her newly ac
quired tan by wearing a sun-back.
dress.
Back in State College, the coed,
will plan for a big evening of
party-hopping. Whether she's at-;
tending a beachcomber's ball or
her dream man's formal pledge
dance, the fashion world will
truly run the gauntlet. If she's
wearing her oldest clothes or her
newest party dress, the female of
the species will be well-groomed.
Her new, short-haircut is a fitting
setting for a tomboyish outfit or
the prettiest of gowns and rhine
stone earrings.
Sunday, as always, will come
far too soon. But. Penn Staters
still have the Blue Band Concert
on the agenda. And . again, our
coed will be looking like a fashion
plate in a new pastel-tinted spring
suit, or dark skirt topped with
light blouse, set off with artificial
flowers.
Weekends pass by too quickly
as all of us believe, so Sunday,
flight every Penn Stater will pre
pare to return to a dull world of
classrooms and books.
