MISS ALASKA IN
BEAUTY CONTEST
ATLANTIC CITY
ATLANTIC CITY. N. J.. Aug. 23—
From the far, frozen north where
bathing beauties piunge in icy, glacial
streams, their alluring curves im
mune from biting blasts.
Miss Alaska, an outstanding figure
in the Atlantic City Pageant Be»ut.V
Tournament last year, is at the
shore ami will again take part in
the famous three-day carnival sp<
tacle to be held here September 6th
6th and 7th
Chosen by the Alaska Daily Em
pire as a most beautiful girl. Miss
Helmar Llederman, ns Miss Alas
ka, will represent the vast north
ern territory recently brought into
the foreground of public often
into the foreground of public atten-,
tlon when visited by the late Tresi
dent Harding.
Miss Alaska is a magnificent exam
pie of phyical development, a typical
product of the hardy north and mys
terlous. far-flung stretches of the ice
fields and towering granite ranges]
of America’s Arctic empire.
The snow-girl of Alaska! This is
what the territory's beautiful repre
sentative in the Pageant has been
Justly termed. Hardened by continual
exercise and sport in open spaces
swept by zero gales. Miss Alaska is
truly accustomed, for example, to;
taking a daily morning dip in the|
Copper River, where fragments of
ice from the famous Child's Glacier!
float, and where the temperature of;
the water never mounts higher than j
36 degrees,
"There is nothing extraordinary!
about this, or in wading through
snow clad in a one-piece bathing!
suit,” said Miss Alaska. "One’s body]
can be accustomed to any degree of!
temperature, and the bite of cold i
air, water and snow is stimulating!
and healthful, if it is not overdone." ,
On a recent trip to New York.!
Miss Liederman entered a physical ,
culture contest at Madison Rrjuarf
Garden and was award d second prize t
for perfection of figure.
Tha'" she is remarkably well deyel-j
oped photographs amply prove. lu
fact, (t'd in bathing suits which ac
centuut ' her charms, Miss Alaska is
a prominent figure, even among t.h" !
thousands of fair bathers now in
Atlantic City, where she will remain
until after the Pageant.
While making the long journey j
from Juneau to the Atlantic, Miss,
Alaska met the chief executives of
many cities.
“Rut there is no city.” she stoutly
declares, “like Atlantic City, nor
have I met an executive as demo
cratic and popular as Mayor Bader.
As they say in Juneau, he is the
bear's cuff.”
