consecutive win in the beauty contest world last week when she+, was selected as
Miss Western Ontario at Windsor, following her victory at Grand Bend on Labor Day.
She was selected by • five judges from Detroit from a field of 12 ,contestants vying
for the WO honor. Her prizes included a fur jacket, diamond -studded wrist watch,
jewellery and. many other gifts. —Windsor Daily Star
Beauty Forgets Karim quit
But Stili Wins WO Crown
Although she had to borrow a
bathing suit to do it, Pat Lovell
won her, second major beauty
contest in less than a week last
Wednesday night when. she was
crowned "Miss 'Western On-
tario" at the Windsor Firelight
ers' annual carnival.
The 17 -year-old Kippen farm
beauty, who won the "Miss
Grand Bend". title on Labor Day,
brought hon* a host of prizes,
including a' fur jacket and a dia-
mond -studded wrist watch: But
she almost didn't enter:
The queen and cher' parents,
Mr. and, Mrs. Lloyd Lovell, had
driven to Arkona before Pat
realized she'd forgotten her
bathing suit: They telephoned
home and told brother Keith to
bring the shit to Grand 'Bend,
where they'd meet him.
Keith arrived at Grand Bend
but he didn't have the suit. He
couldn't find it:. Pat was ready
to drop out right then and go
back hone.
Encouraged by her parents,
however, she borrowed a suit
from her summertime employ-
er, Eric Mcllroy, of Grand Bend,
who sells them in his surf shop.
It was all she needed to win,
along with her 38.251481/2 fig-
ure, of course,
The beauty's loot made the
trip very much worth while. Be•,
sides a rose bowl, the Firefight-
ers' trophy and a replica, she
carne hone with two sets of jew-
ellery, a tailored dress, two
stunning dresser sets, a camera,
art set, .free hair styling, scarf
and sweater set, pen and pencil
set and $145 in cash,
Plus compliments galore from
The Windsor Daily Star, which
said.:
"She's a simple hone-.loein',
tractor-drivin', Sunday school•
teachin' farm girl with 'the ,ap-
petite of a colt, a passion for
boiled Swede turnips . and a
stunning :figure.
"Pat Lovell is a 17 -year-old
young lady with straw in her
hair and a lilt in her voice.
"Before a crowd of 20,000. at
Jackson Park, she narrowly
edged out Miss Windsor in a
photo=finish tilt that had five ex-
pert judges of pulchritude from
Detroit scratching their heads.
"She stood stunned for long
seconds when the decision was
announced after prolonged ,fudg-
ing whichcontinued despite a
splatter of rain. -
"'I really never expected
this,' she said with a 'blush, 'The
Grand Bend competition was the
first el had ever entered, And I
didn't expect to win that, I only
entered because I was teased
into i t . . .'
'I'm just an ordinary farm
girl. I feel really at Home on a

me on the enol of a hoe.

Senator William H. Golding,
Huron -Perth, received moving
tributes from this colleagues in
the Senate when he returned to
the chamber recently after a
period of ill -health duruig which
he was hospitalized,
Senator Golding was described
as a "great parliamentarian" by
Senator Joseph A. Brad.ette,
Cochrane, and as a. "true, honest
Grit of Ontario," by Senator
Jean -Francois Pouliot, De la
Durantaye, Quebec, during de-
bates on business of the house.
Hansard recording of the Irib-
Utes, and Mr, Golding's reply,
follow:
Hon. Joseph A. Bradette;
"Honourable senators, I know we
are all happy that our honour-
able colleague from Huron -Perth
(iloii. Mr. Golding) is with us
again this evening. 14e is a great
parliamentarian, and his advice
and speeches have always been
highly regarded both in the House
of Commons and in the Senate.
"Senator Goldingt was first
elected to the House of Coronions
in 1932, and I was fortunate
enough to be his deslcuhate from
that time on while we were
together in that house. As an
English - speaking Protestant
member from the old province of
Ontario he was very familiar
with the fine qualities pf 'those
people, and his knowledge in this
respect enriched my life,
"I want to pay hint a special
}debt of gratitude. Durteg the last
war, I was Deputy Speaker of
the House of Commons. At that
Hine there Was no Assistant to
that office, but I Was ext.reniely
fortunate in having the wonder-
ful services of the honourable
gentleman from Huron -1'erth
whose wide knowledge of parlia-
mentary procedure \vas of great
help to me. .

with delight the fine meetings

stituents had for him.
"He is a true, honest Grit of
