COUPON
A sultry State College showing
for Playboy's Miss October
By BONNIE MORTER
Collegian Staff Writer
Friday's rush to Happy Hours was
pleasantly interrupted by Playboy's
October Playmate, an attractive
blonde who drew crowds at several
downtown businesses.
Surrounded by gawking fans, Mari
anne Gravatte graciously signed hun
dreds of autographs. Her stops
included Graham's, McLanahan's,
Kaye's Korner and Uni-Mart.
Gravatte delivered each autograph
with a big, sometimes shy, smile and
rewarded each fan with individual
attention for waiting in line. A model
for only one year and once very
introverted, the 22-year-old some
times still finds her role in the public
eye intimidating.
"When we first started the tour, I
was really scared," she said, "but
now that it's almost over, I'm just
starting to enjoy it."
The three-week promotional tour
included stops at Sacramento, Stock
ton and Mather Air Force Base in
California; Boston, Altoona and State
College. Gravatte said she liked State
College best because most of the
people were her own age.
"I'd always been really shy, but
I'm getting over it," she said. "I
really don't have much choice now."
The sultry model was clad in a
silky, form-fitting, violet jumpsuit
with a modest scoop neckline and a
tiny bunny insignia sewn on the upper
left corner. Strappy, high-heeled san
dals supplemented her natural height
of 5 feet 8 inches.

Specifics, for those who haven't
bought Ockober's PlaybOy yet, in
clude long-blonde locks, soft blue eyes
and a 21-inch waist. No less astound
ing is her weight of 105 pounds.
Born in Hollywood, Gravatte says
she has been interested in modeling
for a long time. "I worked for three
years in a grocery store as a bagger
in Arcadia (a town 30 miles east of
Hollywood). Then I realized at 21, if I
was ever going to do any modeling,
I'd better do it now."
She applied at the Playboy Model
ing Agency and soon appeared in ads
for jeans, wet suits, beer, pools and
motorcycles. Then the magazine divi
sion offered her a centerfold contract.
"I thbught about it for a month, but
I was on a time limit if I wanted to be
considered for one of this year's is
sues," Gravatte said. "I finally said
`yes' because I thought it would give
my career a real boost.
"I'm glad I decided to do it, but
right before (the Oitober issue) came
out, I thought 'Did I do the right
thing?' "
Certainly her bank statement told

'kd always been

much choice now.'
her she had done the right thing.
Gravatte received $lO,OOO for model
ing the centerfold portfolio, which
took three weeks to complete.
Although Gravatte had no authority
over which shots were published, she
did limit photographers to "only clas
sy shots."
Gravatte enjoys modeling mostly
because she meets new people. Still,
time to herself is very important. Her,
favorite way to relax is not unlike
many students: "just lying around
watching TV."
Gravatte also loves driving around
in her car, a Cadillac Seville, alone at
night while listening to her stereo.
While she prefers New Wave, she
does not like "the real radical kind."
One of her favorite groups is The
Cars.
For exercise, she enjoys water ski
ing and boating on the Colorado River
as well as snow skiing, bicycling and
racquetball. Most of all, she enjoys
walking, preferably along a Ha
waiian beach.
Gravatte also has a deep love of
animals: . Her pets include five cats
and two birds.
A one-time owner of a dog that lived
to be 17 years old, Gravatte said,
"When it died, I stayed in my room
for three whole days. It was like
losing one of the family. I swore I
wouldn't get another one, but of
course I will."
Gravatte's future plans include a
few more active years of modeling
and then marrying and raising a
family.
