HIGPOOR, Vad-As the sol-

smash across the borders of this,
tiny princely land, their gaudy
colored uniforms pressed shoulder
to shoulder, you can hardly keep
from feeling a sincere admiration.
Yet, any feeling other than that
of fear and forboding can not be
long sustained. For all observers
here feel that this is not just an-
other border clash-an incident.

"We felt that the only way to
really honor her was to invite her
mt our secret sisterhood," she
added with a giggle. According to
reliable sources, Margaret Tru-
man, Flame O'Dell, Babs Hutton,
and the Duchess of Windsor were
also considered for the award.
ALTHOUGH the voting was se-
cret, it is believed that Miss Lee
won over Miss O'Dell by a feather.
All of the candidates have appear-
ed at one time or another at the
white pillared Tri Chi mansion
and were closely screened by the
girls. (It has been reported that
men from the Phi Alpha Phi fra-
ternity assisted in the screening
process, but this was called "mali-
cious gossip" by Miss Upirdle last
night.)

Contacted last night in New
York, Miss Lee remarked that
"those dear sweet girls have given
me the biggest thrill of my life-
