WHITBY FREE PRESS, WEDNESDAY, JULY 31, 1974, PAGE 3 Miss Nude World 1974 A Woman's Point of View - By Marje Burgess Last Sunday the Miss Nude World Pageant was-held be- neath the azure skies of the Four Seasons Nature Resort at Freelton, Ontario. 1, happily, was there to sec it all happen. I an a wornan, and I say "happily", because I found it to be a very en- joyable experience. My hus- band covered the Pageant last year and asked me to come along and provide the woman's point of view this year. I must admit I had mixed emotions about the idea. I'd never been exposed to nudism before and I wasn't sure what my reaction would be. When we arrived at the Resort it was just past noon, and already the crowds had started to gà ther. The contest was scheduled to start at 1:30, so we had a little time to wander through the crowd. There were many nudists there (the resort is a bona fide nudist colony), although they seemed greatly out- numbered by the general pub- lic. I had been in the Resort for perhaps five minutes be- fore I saw the first nudist. I didn't want to appear silly by looking away, neither did I want to appear to be staring. However, that teeling passed almost immediately and after that the whole thing seemed perfectly natural which, after all, it is! There were many nudist fanilies present, and the children looked very healthy and suntanned. Along with their healthy looks I imagine they will have developed a very healthy attitude towards nudity, and I think this is marveloU s. The contest itself was ex- trenely well organized. The 25 girls, coming from both the States and Canada, were presented in very good taste. The stage was constructed several yards out in the lake, with the runway connecting the stage to the shore. Sec- urity was very high, and the girls didn't corne in contact with the general public. All the contestants were attrac- tive, with enviable all-over tansl They ranged in age frorý 18 - 30, and all of them were, of course, nudists. There were 17 dignitaries judging the contest and these included Carl Holman (the Carling-O'Keefe Brewmaster from Denmark) and Russell M. Setti, Mayor of Cooper City, Florida, along with his pretty wife, Valeri. I didn't envy then their task at all, but with much difficulty, at about 5 p.m., they chose Miss Nude World 1974 and the two runners up. The winner, 20 year old Judy Walden of California, also holds the title of "Miss Nude USA". The first runner up is Carol Holcomb, of Florida, and the second run- ner up, Deborah Dugas, hails from Dundas, Ontario. hlie attitude of the general public was just great. I didn't hear any derogatory remarks or cat-calls all day, and every- one seened to have a very healthy attitude towards the pageant. Nudism has been "put down" in the past, and the nudists are really trying to present their way of life to the public in order that it may be better understood. With this iri mind, Lisa and Hans Stein, the owners of the FourSeasons Nature Park, started the Miss Nude World Pageant five years ago. The public reaction has been terr- ific, this year being the most successful yet, attracting some 6,000 paid spectators. To help further present nudisn, there were to be several film showings on the Miss Nude World 1974 smiles happily after being seated on her throne. Judy Walden, 20, of California, is subject of nudist colonies later in the evening. Un- fortunately we were unable to stay to experience these educational films, which l'm flanked by her 2 runners up, Debora Dugas on the left of the photo, and Carol Holcomb on the right. Twenty-five sure the public will have found very informative. i enjoyed the day very much, as I know many people did, and l'm sure the nudist girls participated in the con- test, from both the United States and Canada. - Photo by Mike Burgess world received into it n converts on Sunday.

If you breach or violate the terms of probation the probation can be cancelled and you will be sentenced on these charges," Provincial Court Judge H.A. Rice told a Whitby youth as he placed Joseph G. Holly, 17, of Whitby on two years probation. The youth had pleaded guilty to charges of breaking into the Sungold Fruit Market and breaking into a sandwich Store on Dundas Street. From this business he stole $39 and four cans of coke. None of the goods were recovered. He entered a department store on July fourth and was seen by a Security Guard as he stuffed a number of T-Shirts and mens socks "under his jacket". These items were recovered by the store Security Guard. On June 27th the Joseph Holly and several com- panions stole the gum dispensing machine from in front of Shorty and Son Billiard Hall. The machine was taken into the bushes where the plastic cover was smashed and the gum stolen. There was S15 damage done to the machine including the theft of the gum. The youth was apprehended by "a conscientious citizen." Mr. Holly, father of Joseph, asked the court for terms of prob- ation stipulating that his son be at home under the authority of his parents and supported by the authority of the court. He told the court that he -had read about this ruling in the Press and wondered if it could be done wîth his son. Judge Rice commended the Press for the assistance it is giving the court in helping to keep Law and Order in the community and district. "Lt is the every day controls that bring about a greater legal control and the development of a more orderly community. The Court appreciates what the Press is doing in these efforts." His Honour asked Mr. Holly Senior if he was willing to have his son at home. Mr. Thomas Holly replied, "the doors are not locked to him. He can come in as long as he abides by the rules. If he gets a steady job he wouldn't be in this trouble." Joseph was not living at home with his parents at the time the offences were committed. Provincial Court Judge Rice suspended the passing of sentence for two years as he set out the terms of probation for the next two years. "Joseph is to keep the peace and be of good behaviour. He must reside at home and be amendable to the rules of his parents. He must be home between the hours of 11 p.m. and six a.m. and he must remain there during these hours. He must find and maio- tain employment or attend High School and not play hockey. If he plays hockey during that time it will be a Breach of Probation. He must not own or possess a weapon during this time and he must not associate with any person who has a criminal record." "If you don't observe the conditions of the probation you can be brought back and sentenced," Provincial Court Judge H.A. Rice of Toronto told Glen Raymond Hutchinson, 17, of Pickering. He was placed on 18 months probation on a charge of being in possess- ion of marijuana. The youth had pleaded not guilty to the charge. The terms of his probation are that he be of good behaviour and keep the peace. He is to "refrain from ail non-medical use of drugs and disassociate himself from ail persons using drugs. If these terms of the probation are not violated then there will be a cond- itional discharge at the conclusion of the 18 months probation," his honour said. "You knew it was in your car and you knew it was a drug. There will be a finding of guilty." The car in which Hutchinson was an occupant was stopped for a routine check by the Police in Pickering. On searching the car, which belonged to the youth's father, the officer found some seeds that 'looked like" marijuana seeds. Officer Pugh had seen a plastic bag being tossed· out of the car by Hutchinson's brother. In the plastic bag was a plant like substance which was analyzed as marijuana and the bag also held a hand rolled cigarette containing marijuana. The youth told the court that the first time he was aware of the plastic bag being in the car was when his brother showed it to him. His brother had the car the night before and he had some friends in the car. Paul Murray Holliday, 19, of Whitby was fined $100. or 10 days in jail on a careless driving charge. He was given 60 days in which to pay his fine. He pleaded guilty to the charge.
