Street .idjress. City Stale iVliss X hotoplay Meta Diane Neuburg of Tuckahoe, N. Y., chosen as Photoplay's representative in the contest conducted by thirteen magazines to pick "Miss Columbia." Right, Meta in her ballet costume THE TWO handsome pictures on this page will give you a very fair idea of "^liss Photoplay," this magazine's entrant in the contest to choose "Jliss Columbia' in a nationwide contest sponsored by Columbia Pictures, Inc. Our charming contestant is Miss Meta Diane Xeuburg, of Tuckahoe, N. Y. Out of college a year, Miss Xeuburg, at twenty-one. is a school librarian in her home town, with amateur theatricals and ballet study as afterliours interests. The pictures here are pretty enough, but they can't portray the beauty of her blonde coloring nor the daintiness of face and figure that mark her as an exceptionally attractive girl. "Miss Photoplay" is five feet, three inches tall and weighs 109 pounds. Her hair is light — almost ash blonde, and her eyes are blue. .\s the representative of this magazine in the contest to pick "Miss Columbia," Miss Xeuburg receives a Majestic Radio set. In the final judgingof en trants,chosenby thirteen national magazines, "Miss Columbia" will be chosen. That lucky girl will get a free trip to Hollywood and return as the company's guest, a week's contract at S2.S0 to pose for the new trailer title to precede all the company's pictures, and lavish entertainment while on the Coast. Kight hundred of Photoplay's pretty readers entered this contest. That Miss Meta of Tuckahoe was chosen is proof that she is exceptionally lovely. PuoTdPLAY congratulates Miss Neuburg, and wishes her success in the final selection which will be announced next month. Erery tdvcrtlsenicnt In I'M0T01'I..\Y M.VGAZINE b suarantccd.
