PARK TWO -1 llKRAl.D & NKWS. KLAMATH KAl.LS, OHKCON nn yeen mananna Rules the Roundup ELMER BALSIGER, Queen Trials chairman, presents Queen Marianna with roses in honor of her reign. Margy Brown Crowns Pretty New Monarch By WALLACE MYERS So far as rules are concerned, beauty takes a back seat in quali fications for Basin Roundup queens. But again this year, as in other yev, the queen is as beautiful as she is talented. Queen Marianna Hellekson has the exciting habit of rapidly chang ing her appearance torn a sultry penslveness to flashing vivacity. She is a 17-year-old brunette with an almost hoydenish self-assurance but with enough reserve to chow good rearing. Marianna Is the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. John Hellekson, promi nent Langell Valley ranching family. Mrs. Hellekson's father was Frank Grohs, one of the early Langell Valley settlers. ' Friends and schoolmates fondly call Marianna "Punkin" but she re fused to become "Queen Punkin." She's going to have a lot of fun out of her queenship but she does not intend dulling the dignity of her royal post with a nickname. Marianna won the high honor of reigning over the Roundup through a combination qf fine horseman ship, poise and personality. At the Queen Trials. June S, when all the queen candidates were tested on riding ability, Marianna scored with what appeared to be a near-perfect performance. She rode her own horse, Tony, and the horse behaved beautifully. Although the horsemanship scores were not announced publically, it was apparent that Marianna would rank high. When she appeared at the Armory last Saturday night for the Queen's Ball and the final phase of Judging, on poise and per sonality, she looked like a good bet to come through and get the crown. Marianna and her seven pvin esses add up to a fine court for the Roundup.
