The petite, blue-green eyed 16 year old blonde won over twelve other contestants. The students elected three contestants from each class in High School and the faculty made the final decision of naming Miss Craft the Queen. Her portrait will appear in this year's annual. Miss Craft stated she was speechless when informed of her selection. "I didn't expect to win. because there is a lot of other prettier than I." stated the beauty. The popular Miss Craft lives with her grandfather, Mr. T.G Craft in Harrison District. She loves bicycling and hates cooking, because she says "I just don't know how." The unassuming Tenth Grade student likes Biology and English in school. She expects to enter a stenographic career after finishing high school. When asked if she expected, Miss Craft stated, "I suppose so. If the right man comes along." "I am very grateful to the faculty for selecting me as the Campus Queen, but I don't think I'll ever enter another contest 'cause I'm just not pretty enough. stated Miss Craft. But there are plenty of people who do not agree with the last part of that statement. Runner-ups in the contest are 11th Grade, Dorothy Adams; 10th Grade, Sue James; 9th Grade Helen Carroll Dean; and 8th Grade Hilda Brown.
