(Asked in Zurich at the Lions Labor pay Celebration) Ben CJignac, Zurich: I think Beauty contests are great. Many people come to a program just for such a feature. Mrs. llaroiu renhaie, Exeter: I think it’s a nice idea for the young girls and I enjoy seeing a beauty contest. It makes a lot of the girls around pick up. lionaid Gordon Scotchman, Bay- field: Yup, I think beauty con­ tests are swell. I don’t know why I just like them. Doreen Prance, Winchelsea; They seem to draw the crowd, although I think it must take a lot of nerve for the girls to get up there. Everyone seems to en­ joy watching them and the crowd always seems to wait to see a I beauty contest. Beverley Neil, Crediton: I think beauty contests are a very good idea. It looks like a lot of fun for the participants as well as the audience. It draws a good crowd and makes good entertain­ ment. The winners must be very < proud.I Dr. W, B. Coxon, Zurich: < They’re a grand thing. No trou- | ble picking first prize tonight. I’d like to see more girls in them. It’s going to he an annual affair for Zurich Lions Cluh to elect Miss Huron County. I I wouldn't want to be a judge—a ■ fellow might lose his wife!
