the Kentuckian beauty
queen at the annual Student Union
Board dance was the reason Tommy
Glsh, associate editor of The Kentucklan, gave for not holding formal presentation of the queen.
In former years the annual Student Union Board dance was usually featured by the presentation
of the Kentuckian's beauty queen,
but this year the board asked that
Uicy receive their pags in the yearbook free for the privilege of presenting the winner. Gish continued.

'
When a satisfactory financial arrangement could not be made for
the dance at the Union it was decided to return to the earlier prac
tice of The Kentuckian In withholding the names of the queen and
her attendants for release in the
new Kentuckian.
Another condition asked by the
Union board was that if the Kentuckian did not wish to give the
board its pages free the Kentuckian
should forego part of the dance
expenses, according to Gwen Pace,
secretary of the board.
Candidates for the beauty queen
title were selected from 34 contes
tants by judges Tuesday night in
