Mystery Photo No. 10 -- girls on boat

What we know about this photo: The year was 1948, and the occasion was the annual Jaycee Boat Regatta. These six ladies were among the candidates for Regatta Queen. Standing are Mary Lou Case, left, and Dorothea Cogdill. Seated from left are Patsy Kennett, Delores Rice, Mary Lou Stanberry and Beverly Young. The boat belonged to Hugh Tolley.

Other queen candidates that year included Trudy Bennett, Lou Ann Chase, Pat MacMillan and Nancy Slusher. Beverly Young won the crown by selling the most regatta buttons.

Thanks to Mary Lou (Stanberry) McSweeney for providing newspaper clippings that solved our mystery.  This photo was published in the June 10, 1948, Herald and News.
