By CORRINNE HARDESTY United Press Staff Correspondent NEW YORK, Jan. 9 (UP) Margaret Landry believes "Mr, Hays is just silly to think sweat ers are immoral" and 5000 American soldiers agree with her. Likewise, some dozen or so hardboiled New York photo graphers who in less than an hour yesterday took more pic tures of Margaret in her sweater than have been taken of Wins ton Churchill on his entire Amer ican visit. Margaret, 19, brunette and definitely cuddlesome, won the title "America's official sweater girl," over S000 contestants in a nationwide competition held by a knitwear association. Her reward, besides honor and glory. was a $500 defense bond and a 10-day Broadway whirl. "Wearing a sweater is really patriotic," Margaret said in a heavy southern drawl she comes from Baton Rouge, La. "because it pleases the soldiers. To prove her point Margaret hauled out a batch of fan mail about 5000 letters she received from soldiers, sailors and ma rines, far and near, since her contest victory was announced a few weeks ago. "I get hundreds like this al most every day," she said, pick ing out one at random. Sgt T. E. Wells, Camp Beaure gard, La.,' "On behalf of the whole darned camp," discussed Margaret and her sweaters for three paragraphs and concluded: Sketches cerns only the project figures and does not go out of that area in the Klamath basin. ri 3 u a y o if 1,839 3 0 0 1,759 1,083 6 0 0 1.261 1,224 4 0 0 1.310 1,007 S 0 0 1,106 413 4 0 0 494 138 0 3 0 209 10 0 1 0 74 29 0 0 0 95 719 4 2 0 1,688 990 24 0 111 1.343 897 13 0 227 1,279 1.031 10 0 0 1,256 9,082 74 6 338 12.074 of reclamation engineer and is shown here with a comparative 1940 table (this also Includes Triple A payments): Returns Per Acre $86.91 104.00 54.13 37.33 36.87 Total $2,749,739 2,492,686 2,338,438 1,083,190 160,900 $8,824,993 Returns Per Acre 547.43 76.92 33.57 23.89 27.64 Total $1,482,436 1.821,639 1.410,827 689,877 138,181 824 $3,542,980 1930, $36.90: 1931, $23.69; 1932, $18.29; 1933. $31.73; 1934, $38.86; 1935, $44.30; 1936. $77.86; 1937, $39.99; 1938, $58.23; 1939, $35.81: 1940. $60.16; 1941, $94.28. These are gross returns, not net, it was pointed out, and 1941 expenses to the farmer will be high as in other war years. "Girls as beautiful as you j make this country worth fight ing for." "You see," Margaret said, "the soldiers are right. Mr. Hays is just silly to think sweatees im moral. Nobody can say college girls ere Immoral and every col lege girl has a closet full of sweaters. Margaret has 36. "I'm really grateful to him, though," she added. "If he hadn't stirred up the fuss about sweat ers, nobody would have paid any attention to them and I wouldn't be having all this fun." A slight wrinkle marred Mar garet's sweater bliss when Lana Turner, who acquired screen fame via a sweater with a good two-way stretch, declined to hand Margaret her prize in the pre sentation. "But I still think Lana's won derful," Margaret said magnani mously. "She's my ideal. I hope to go on the stage or in the movies when I finish college next year. I'm glad there was a movie talent scout among the Judges for this contest." Dorothy Lamour will hand Margaret her defense bond, "Which I sure am proud to get," Margaret said. "A girl's got to look right in a sweater. You know what I mean," Margaret said. Here's what makes Margaret look right in a sweater or just look right: height 5 feet li inch; weight 98 pounds; bust 33 Inches; waist 22 inches; hips 33 inches.
