Nome area college students are
presently attending the 8th Annual

forces which operate in Indian
communities.

are Harry E. Johnsen, Jr., son of
Mr. and Mrs. Harry Johnsen of
Nome, who is majoring in music
and education at the University
of Alaska, with plans for a teach
ing career; Frances Ann Degnan,
daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Frank

ka, and planning a career in social

Kan., and planning a career in
economics and general business.
The students have expressed
high praise for the workshop,
speaking of their participation not
only as an enjoyable experience
but also as one which they believe
will better enable them to help
their native people in Alaska.
WHY ? ? ?
TROY, N.Y. (JP) — The woman
who called a local radio station
Saturday apparently was perturbed
by warnings that direct viewing
of the solar eclipse could cause
serious eye damage.
More than a bit peevishly, she
demanded:
“Why are they having an eclipse
if you can’t watch it?”

Brazilian Beauty
Crowned Miss Universe
MIAMI BEACH, Fla. W — Miss
Universe, shy 18-year-old Ieda
Maria Vargas of Brazil, had her
first date for her coronation ball
—a thronged formal affair with
all trappings of royalty.
Wearing her jewelled crown and
a white floor-length ball gown,
the black-haired Miss Universe
acknowledged her 1,000 well-wish
ers Sunday night with polite
“thank you,” the only English she
knows.
Her first dance in public — “in
my whole life I think”— was with
actor Dana Andrews.
The actor, seated at the head
table, escorted the 5-foot-6 Miss
Uinverse to the floor where an
orchestra waited to play the “first
dance, the Dance of Miss Universe.”
Ieda’s escort, Luis Menezes, 20,
didn’t show up in time, so Andrews
took over.
“I’m a lousy dancer,” he said
afterward. Andrews speaks no
Portuguese and Ieda speaks no
English. “You might say it was
awkward,” said the actor, in Miami
for a play.
Ieda won her title Saturday
night over 15 finalists chosen from
a field of 92 shapely beauties.
Aino Korwa of Denmark was
first runnerup; Marlene McKeown
of Ireland, second; La-Laine Ben
nett of the Philippines, third; and
Kim Myung-Ja of Korea, fourth.
