German Lass
Wins Miss World
Contest; U.S. Is 2nd
LONDON, UPl—Miss Germany, a
green-eyed brunette who used to
be a blonde, is the new Miss
World.
For a moment Monday night it
looked like Miss United States,
20-year-old Betty Lane Cherry of
Orangeburg, S.C., had won the
1956 international beauty title.
When the six finalists filed
from the wings of a London thea
ter for the announcement of the
winner, Miss Cherry wore a se
rene and confident look—plus a
sash across her shoulders, The
BBC announcer said:
“Oh, Miss United States seems
to have won. She’s got on the
winner’s sash.”
A contest official quickly
whipped the sash off Miss Cherry.
“Sorry,” the anouncer said,
j “something seems to have hap
' pened.”
The title was then awarded to
the German entrant, 23-year-old
Petra Schurmann. Miss Cherry
Was second in the competition
among girls from 23 countries.
Miss Schurmann gasped and
then almost swooned as she re
ceived the crown. Miss Cherry
leaned over and kissed her.
A reporter asked:
“As Miss Germany, shouldn't
you be blonde?”
Petra lowered her long eye
I lashes. “Frankly,” she said, “I was
a blonde.”

Charles Code, Former
Nome Theater Operator,
Dies in Seattle at 85
SEATTLE lift—Charles H. Code.
85, former motion picture theater
operator in Nome, died here Sun
day.
Code went to the Yukon Terri
tory in 1897 and later to Nome.
He engaged in mining until 1907,
when he and his brother, William,
started the Dream Theater, one of
the first motion pictures houses
in Alaska.
From 1914 to 1932, Code was
in Seattle. In 1932 he returned to
Nome and managed the theater
until it burned in the disastrous
Nome fire of 1934.
He built a new theater, and
managed it until 1940 when he
removed to Seattle. He retired in
1953 when this theater burned.
Code died in Swedish Hospital.
A Masonic funeral was held for
him today.
SKIRTS DOWN,
DIOR PREDICTS
NEW YORK, IM—Fashion de
signer Christian Dior arrived to
day from Europe with a predic
tion women's skirts are going to
be “just a bit longer.”
He said there also is a trend
| toward a draped, slim silhouette
i in contrast to the tendency toward
j a full silhouette during the past
i season.
As for hats, he said, they will
be “less important and smaller,
and tending to show more of the
face.”
Shades from “toast to caramel”
will figure importantly in spring
showings, he added.
Dior arrived on the liner Queen
Mary for a three-week showing of
his spring styles late this month.
