Priscilla Bowden '61 of Bertram Hall was selected the best-dressed girl at Radcliffe last night. Thirteen candidates modeled in the fashion show contest sponsored by Percussion...
...Harvard Society for the Study of Western Cultural History and Literature has nominated Martha Streiff '61. Extending professional courtesy to other college humor publications, the CRIMSON has permitted the Columbia Jester to nominate Priscilla Bowden '61. Also, the Yale Daily News sent a special telegram request last night that Miss Myra Kriegel, one of the eight experimental New Haven co-eds, be considered. From as far away as the University of Colorado nominations have come in. Miss Marilyn Kelly of CU has been nominated by the Flatiron, a frequently banned local humor magazine...
Next night, both men were really trying. But Elliott, who had spent more energy in the trials, also had more in reserve. With Oklahoma's Gail Hodgson and California's Don Bowden to pace them through the first three quarters, the two Aussies came into the final lap with 3 min. 3.8 sec. gone.

Senior Bob Seaman. In the 440-yd. run, remarkable Reggie Pearman, 33, ran the fastest quarter mile of his life (0:46.4) to win the title just ten years after he won his first A.A.U. championship by beating Mal Whitfield...
