One Year................... $6.00 Six Months.................. $4.00 Atlantic Citv Story By Mrs. Wilton Jackson We feel like we were gone a month because of all we packed in while on our trip to Atlantic City, and it was only ten days. We flew back to Philadelphia on Saturday . September 1 sn the same flight with Sharon Davis, Miss Idaho. She is a most charming per son, and during the following week, she and Nancy became good friends. We met Nancy in Philadelphia, then she went on t At lantic City by limousine, a60-mile trip. Sunday and Monday were spent registering and having pictures taken by the press. Then Monday night they started rehearsals on the stage for the production number that all the girls, USO troops and the cast were in. From then on it was a real work schedule for the girls. They got up at six each morning, spent the entire day at the Con vention Center, returning each evening in time to dress for dinner. Each hotel houses several girls, and the girls are ex pected to eat in the dinning room each night all dolled up. Then they dash to their rooms to get ready for the night’s events. We were allowed to wait in the lobby each evening for her to come down w ith her ‘‘live in” hostess from Seaside, and while she waited for her Atlantic City hostess topick her up, we could visit with her. Tuesday night was the illuminated night parade on the board walk. It was really beautiful. The boardwalk is just that-a very wide sidewalk made of boards, running in front of the ornate old fashioned hotels and shops, separating them from the beach twelve miles long. Bleachers, chairs, old fashioned w icker carts, etc. are set up the entire length and seats are sold for that night. The parade was two and one-half hours long, many bands and beautiful floats. The contestants ride in convertibles with spot lights shining on them from the windshield of their cars. Nancy looked sparkling in a soft blue chiffon formal with rhine stones. Since last year’s Miss America, Terry Anne Meeuwsen, had been so ill, she was not allowed to ride on her float. In her place were several dozen long stem red roses, and the girls that had been contestants last year, and had just returned from USO tours rode on her float. Sandi Herring, last year’s Miss Oregon was one of these, and she is so cute to watch when she performs. Wednesday started the preliminary competitions. The state representatives’ are divided into three groups called the Mu, Alpha and Sigma. The three words together form the official name of the sorority of all national Mis» America Representatives. Nancy’s group was to appear in evening gowns the first night, so their interview with the panel of judges was that afternoon. They spent seven-minutes apiece with the judges asking them questions. Their scores on the interviews are tallied in with the formal gown competition and are not announced. For the first three nights of judging, the points are divided with 50“v for talent, and 25 each for swimsuit and formal. Then the final night, all the points are thrown out, the top ten com pete all over again, and the judging changes! ■> one-third for each category. The day they compete in talent, is the only time they practice on stage, and they are allowed only fifteen minutes of practice. After each nights program, the whole Oregon delegation would dash back to the hotel (we were all staying in the same hotel she was) in time to gTeet her as she returned, and being the cut up she is, while telling us of little happenings during the show she would have us all in stitches. Nancy never got up stairs before mictiight, and still had her hair to wash, set, and sleep under the dryer to be ready for the 6 a.m. call the next day. In the meant.me, the parents were well entertained. We went to Captain Sterns restaurant for lunch and talks by Terry -a great-grandchildren.

It was such fun meeting other parents, and we found they felt just like we did. That each of the 50 girls were so beautiful, they were glad they dicki’t have to be judges After lunch we were taken on a boat ride around the area. Thursday we were given a behind the scenes look at con vention hall. Saw the dressing rooms for the girls, the largest stage in the U. S., walked the ramp, and were given a show the hostesses had worked up to show the girls Saturday night before they went on TV. They are really hams. Later that day was a garden reception for us at the Marl borough-Blenheim Hotel. Terry Anne was to be our hostess, but in her place was Phyllis George. Miss America of 1971. She is a lovely girl, and had taken over Terry’s (fencing on stage and other committments to save her strength. Friday we all went to a luncheon at Haddon Hall. During the year Terry had taken six other girls to Korea. Okinawa for a three-weeks USO tour. Sandi Herring was with this group. Donnie Dorn, the first runner up from last year took six others for 49 days to Europe Azores. Allot these girls were con testants last year. So after the luncheon, the two troops com bined and did their sbow for us. They were terrific. Wish you could have seen more of them on TV. Saturday we were taken on buses to Smithville, a histone old town, where we had lunch. We were seated at a table with Miss Hawaii’s mother and a friend of hers when she was told her daughter had been chosen by the other girls as Miss Con geniality. Mrs. Kaumeheiwa said in such a sweet voice “Oh how nice,” while her friend burst into tears. That evening should have been the big night to wish our girls well before the performance, but due to picketing firemen around the convention hall, the girls and the entire cast were confined inside the hall for 16 hours. All they could see out the barred windows were hoards of policemen. It was a very unusual day and a mighty long one. The night’s performance started at 8:30 with the proWctthn number, then the girK* were taken backstage until . the — «L . broadcast at ten. We had other entertainment on stage tmiil the TV time. After the show, the girls were escorted into the ball room upstairs in convention hall for a ball that lasted until 3:30 a.m The room was beautiful with flowers on every table and candles. Wilton had the first dance with his daughter, and «as a mighty proud parent. She had really put her heart into all the competition, did a beautiful job, and «as known by all the hos- tesses and those that worked with her as a very sweetgirl. The next morning at 10-30, we joined all the girls at an awards brunch where trophies were given out and scholarships were pre sented. Each ooe of the girls were given a $500 scholarship. The week was a thrill of a lifetime for all of us. Nancy has returned now to Seaside, and will spend this year being our state’s personal hostess. As yet she doesn’t know where she will live, she has no decision in this. She will be making public appearances all over the state and has had a business manager appointed to schedule these. One thing she does know for sure, is that on the 15th of October, she will fly to Hawaii and tour the Islands until November 1. There is also some talk of a cruise to Mexico in November, but details aren’t worked out for that as yet. BETTER AND BETTER THAT'S WHAT SAVERS AT PIONEER FEDERAL SAVINGS ARE SATING...THE REASON?

This past month is just one example of why we love it here. You have all been so wonderful to our daughter and to us. Nancy had 27 bouquets of flowers at her hotel, and more than that number of telegrams, letters and cards m Atlanta City. I’m sure the one that thrilled her the most was from the County Court telling her pageant Saturday was Nancy Jackson day in Malheur County. But the flowers and telegrams from the Nyssa and Cfetario Chambers of Commerce plus those from her friends and ours meant so much to us all. The luncheons at both cities the last time she was home showed her how much you all care. And what a thrill to drive into Nyssa and see the signs proclaiming “Home of 1973 Miss Oregon,” and to actually know someone who has tx-en presented with a key to their city! I’ll never forget the beau tiful Invocation at the Nyssa luncheon asking God to guide this girl this year. She needs your prayers now more than ever. You have all been so »on- derful to her and she is feel- ing she has let you down by not walking away with one of The- awards in Atlantic City, But if you could have seen the gracious way she handled her self, and how she put tier whole heart into everything she did, you would agree with us in know ing we were well repre sented. Thank you, each and every rtnf from Nancy and tier entire family. —Mrs. Wilton .'a kson 4 HEALTH 8 % • % 11 TRANSPORTATION 5 Parks 4 Cemetery McatAttON ’2.5’00.00 100 % % 14 social DEVELOPMENT • LIBRARIES 100 % % IB HOUSING a COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT ’ 1,500.00 7 SOCIAL SERVICES FOR AGED 6 POOR B financial ADMINISTRATION $ $ » ror*. ik*SsIb % Ifjf) 3r260.00 % % % % % % % % % % % * % % _______ ........ % % % % % % % % 10Q* % % 100 % % % % % % 1 j76 % % % % % % |T~ $ IB PUBLIC SAFETY 8 *is Parks 4 3 vi nun ing Pool RECREATION ♦ * 6,900.00 CULTURE INI ASSURANCES INW to InaiiuUion G) ’20 0THER(SpwVr' The 'lews med*« hjve been advised that a complete copy of this report hew been published m a local newspaper of general circulation 1 have record« documenting the content» of th«» •tport and they are open for pubic and news media scrutiny Street 21 OTHIR/Spw/» 1 assure the Secretary of the Treasury that the statutory provisions listed in Part G of the Instructions accompanying this report wJi be complied with by tbit recipient government with respect to the entitlement funds reported h<neon -, ,s»- •<'. - |.
