Thirteen young women form a chorus line, modeling bathing suits and high heel shoes. They are participating in the "Poise, Posture and Personality" contest at Lincoln High School. These top entries will also win coveted "model" roles in the Music Department's upcoming original musical comedy "Of Men and Models." The production will be completely written and scored by Lincoln students. The story line revolves around a football hero and his teammates who inherit a Fifth Avenue dress shop and try to make it a success. Bathing beauties pictured are, left to right, Florence Anderson, Betty Snyder, Carol Lind, Janet Wolters, Martha Farrell, Lois Dahl, Matilda Drennen, Garnet Thompson, Lawauna Dickes, Mary Sandford, Doris Davey, Harriet Sommervell and Mary Anne Wilkins.
