Lynn Goorey Named Homecoming Queen
BV LARKY SOPPEL
With- 83,000 chilled spectators watching the half-time festivities at Ohio Stadium on Oct. 15, Lynn Goorey, daughter ot Mrs. Estelle F. Goorey, 448 N. Cassady Rd., stood almost enchanted and saw her name spelled but in huge red letters on a snow white background.
Lynn had just i)een named Ohio State's 19B9 Homecoming Queen the night before, and Block "O," the student flash card-section, was honoring "their" quefen.
be further entertained with a pro¬ gram of Jewish folk muslo by soprano, Mrs. Albert Macknen, accompanied by Mrs. Jonas Deutsch, at the piano.
A great amount of labor has been and will he put forth by a large group of Hadassah mem¬ bers, to make this affair a cul¬ tural, aesthetic and financial suc¬ cess.
The members of Szold, who have led their fellow members in tWs undertaking are: Mra. Norman Meizllsh, vice - president, Mrs. Maurice Zox, Mrs. August Scho- fer and Mrs. Robert Hallet, Donor Dinner chairmen, Mrs, Sam Cohen and Mrs. Reuben Abramson, pledge  chairmen.
MRS. PAUL Callif and Mrs. Richard Grundstein are jewel chairmen, Mrs, Stanley Novak, Ad Book chairman, Mrs. Marvin Fox, publicity, and Mrs. Sara Valcov, donor treasurer. Mrs. Josef Haas will do decorations; Mrs. H. Felnstein is hospitality chairman and Mrs. Max Roth- stein Is in charge of the solicita¬ tion of Friends and Contributors Llloh members, with corre¬ sponding respansibilities are: Mrs Malcolm Eobbrns, vice president;' Mrs. Carl Meilman and Mrs. B, Lee Skilken, Donor Dinner chair¬ men; Mrs. Edward Ghitman, pledge chainjian, Mrs. Leon Mark, hospitality, Mrs. Neal Calllf, donor treasurer, Mrs. Marvin Grossman, donor projects, Mrs, Arthur Meizlish, jewels, and Mrs, Aivin  Stone,  publicity.
The Donor Dinner efforts of the Business and Professional group are under the direction of Miss Faye Smith, who is Donor Dinner ohairman, and the North Side group has been working for Donor under the chairmanship of Miss Ceclle Shapiro.
NEEDLESS to say, it is quite an honor to be named Home¬ coming Queen and no one was more thrilled about it than perky Lynn Goorey,
To become eligrible to ask the student student body of 23,000 to vote for a queen, a girl must com¬ pete with girls from nearly every sorority and dormitory on the campus. Of these only 10 are chosen by a screening committee that looks for the qualities a pros¬ pective queen should have.
"Being one of the top 10 was wonderful," Lynn said. "I never even thought I would be one of the five finalists. I certainly would have been satisfied with that."
LYNN represented Sigma Delta Tau Sorority. As she explained it, "A Jewish girl from a dormitory has a good chance of making it, but it is very difficult for one from a sorority. She has to com¬ pete with other sorority girls and there are far more Independents than members of Greek organi¬ zations."
Being a Homecoming Queen is not anything new to Lynn. She was Homecoming Queen at Uni¬ versity High School — but with¬ out a doubt, this time topped them all.
The big moment when she learned of her good fortune w^ts Friday, Oct. 14, 11 p.m. at the Homecoming Dance. The chair¬ man walked before the five final¬ ists and said, "It is customary to open an envelope before making such an announcement. So here 1 go."
OF OOUBSB his words were "Lynn   Goorey."
"I didn't cry," Lynn aald, with a laugh in her voice." I Just said, 'All I can think of right now U ray Shakespeare teacher telling me not to cry, because it wouldn't be  the queenly thing to do.' He
gave me a passage to recite but I forgot it," she laughed.
And things didn't stop after Homecoming Day. The excite¬ ment will probably never wear off.
"I got telegrams, flowers and gloves. The wires came from ail over the-country from friends and relatives. One telegram said They said it couldn't be done, couldn't be done, but you did it ...  "
"THE SOUORTTY was of course really excited and the trophy is just huge." She emphasized, "It goes to the sorority house. If it weren't for them, this probably couldn't have happened to me."
Since her good fortune Lynn has grotten many strange tele¬ phone calls. Dates, of course, are no problem but they never were for this popular and peppy young lady.
About the telephony calls, Lynn mused, "I guess I can't help but wonder whether they're calling rae because I'm queen or because I'm rae, but I suppose that goes with it all."
AS PART of her "queenly du¬ ties," Lynn also presented an automobile to the winner of a college puzzle contest. "But it is all sort of antl-cllraactic now, because it's back to school and I'm Lynn Ooorey again. I don't feel any different."
tiynn is a senior at Ohio State and a draraa major. She has worked at WOSU-TV and ap¬ peared in last year's Gallery Players production ot "The Re¬ clining Figure."
THIS PAST summer she was in the Stadium Theater production of "Arsenic and Old Lace."
She is first vh;e president of her sorority.
But being Homecoming Queen certainly tops all her other ac¬ complishments to date — and it couldn't happen to a nicer person.
