Fifteen-year-old Judy Chadwick, the new Miss
Somebody I found in South Burlington, Vt, is
something of a paradox.
At first glance she appears to be an abundantly freckled, apple
cheeked charmer. But a second look reveals that she is poten
tially an exotic beauty. Could our dark-haired, brown-eyed Miss
Somebody be interested in an acting career, I wondered? Judy
soon jolted me back to reality. There wasn't a chance that this
could happen, she told me. Like a number of my past discoveries
for Family Weekly all lovely, all unknown "Miss Nobodies"
until we found them Judy isn't eager for footlight fame.
Her main interest at present is music. When Judy is not work
ing to maintain her straight-A average in high school, she can be
found singing or playing the flute. At school she plays her favorite
instrument in the band and sings soprano in the chorus. At church,
Judy is in her second year as a member of the choir, and she also
plays flute in the newly formed South Burlington Town Band.
Judy grew up in a musical family. Her parents, Anne and
Robert Chadwick, sing in the church choir, and her three sisters
Linda, 11, Nancy, 8, and Joanne, 2 each seem to have a mu
sical bent. Linda plays the flute (she influenced Judy to take it
up), and little Joanne likes to bang away on the family organ
(as does her brother Robert, 6). All the Chadwick girls take
piano lessons. "It has been a tradition in our family," says Judy,
"for everyone from third grade up to try his hand at music."
Judy has lived in Vermont most of her life and loves it. She
has ample opportunity to enjoy skiing and skating in winter
and boating on Lake Champlain in the summer. Indoors, she is a
ping-pong buff. And, recently, politics has found a place on her
schedule. Judy is one of the charter members of a Young Re
publican Club that has just been launched in Burlington.
The Chadwicks live in a seven-room ranch house that is pictur
esquely situated between two apple orchards. Mr. Chadwick works
for a large electrical firm which has a plant in Burlington. He
bears the awesome title of Manager of Special Weapons in Quality
Control Engineering. "One of his important jobs," explains Judy,
"is seeing that Army missiles are turned out in top quality."
Judy does a lot of baby sitting and is a frugal saver. The mon
ey she earns has helped realize her yearning to travel. Last
summer it financed a trip to North Carolina. But Judy, who is an
avid pen pal and writes to friends in Scotland and France, has
her sights on the distant Far East. "It has a mysterious quality
that intrigues me," she says. Then, with her lovely eyes twink
ling, she adds, "But after my travels, I'd like to settle down and
raise five or six children."
My impression is that if Judy Chad wick's energetic talent anil
beauty do not launch an acting career, they will make her a top
contender for the role of model wife and mother.
