The motion pictures of the
young women have nothing to do
with the selection of "Miss Wash- "]
ington." but are rather a unique
tribute to the beauty of the young
women of Washington. Lawrence
Beatus, the manager of Loew's, believes
that among the young
women are some who may yossess
qualities which fit them 'or a t
screen career and that possibly the
moat beautiful woman in the united (
States is among the candidates. For
this reason he arranged to have the '
pictures taken, and after their
showing at the Palace has arranged s
to have them forwarded to the I
Vitasraph studios for review by the a
directors. ?
As soon as "Miss Washington" Is
elected she will receive from At- t
tentic City a gold-embossed case 1
containing her transportation and a e
reservation at one of the resort s t
finest hotels. A similar case will be t
