Miss Cafeteria Society

Champions of feminine democracy may grant that the Colonel's Lady and Judy O'Grady are sisters under their skins; but they firmly believe that Judy O'Grady's skin is prettier. On this assumption some of Judy's champions last week held a competition for "Miss Cafeteria Society." The place was Manhattan's Fiesta Danceteria, where subway society can get supper on a tray for 60-c- dance all night for nothing to Manhattan's better swing bands. Fiesta's patrons flocked to compete: stenographers, sales girls, telephone operators, factory girls from Manhattan, Brooklyn and The Bronx, in $2.98 dresses, 98162; hats and 59162; silk stockings.

Amid loud applause (and the back of their hands to cafe society's glamor girls) 18-year-old Muriel Klushin, $15-a-week stenographer, tall, lovely, brunette, was announced winner over 261 rivals. Muriel's prize: a round of Manhattan's most expensive nightspots (with the judges), $100 in cash. With the money Muriel announced she would buy an Easter outfit--but no $2.98 dresses, 98162; hats, 59162; stockings.
