Faye Howser Joins Helens
ROYAL HELEN — Mrs. Faye Henderson Howser, 1961 Homecoming princess and present chairman of Women Recreation Assn., was chosen.by the El Rodeo as the eighth senior cced to bear the title "Helen of Troy."
By PONCHITTA PIERCE Assistant to the Editor
A senior coed who is “as good as she is good looking” was selected as “Helen of Troy” yesterday for her contributions to the university and student programs.
Mrs. Faye Henderson Howser, chairman of Women Recreation Association and a 1961 Homecoming princess, “is a student capable and able to perform up to her level of attractiveness.” in the words of Dr. Aileene Lockhart, professor of physical education.
As chairman of WRA— a division of the University Recreation Association—and 1961-62 Troy Camp co-chairman, the eighth “Helen” has shown ability in leadership and in working with people.
“Faye is always pleasant and cooperative,” Dr. Lockhart commented. “She never seems to lose her temper, and if
you ask her to do something. you can be sure that it will be done.
“She has a very warm personality.” Dr. Lockhart continued. “She is creative and responsive. She also has initiative to approach things from different Doints of view and then the critical insight to make good judgments.”
A physical education major specializing in dance, the pretty Tro-jane often has persons wondering why she chose the field. But she has no doubts.
“By the time women are in college, they have already formed their postural habits,” she said. “But in high school, wom-men still need guidance in good grooming and in realizing the importance of physical education.”
As a high school teacher, Mrs. Hawser also would like to help students “feel their own creativity.”
“So often women are active in high school, but are not creative,” she explained. “Creativity is a skill—like dance—you have to develop it yourself before you can feel it is really part of you.” “Many persons do not know what to do with their extra hours,” she said. “Instead of brooding in their rooms or wasting time wondering what to do. they could be out enjoying a game of tennis or sailing or fishing.” Mrs. Howser, who was married to her husband Fred about a year ago, said her major goal is to be home with her husband and future children where she can devote full time to being a mother and housewife.
Mrs. Howser began her student leadership at San Gabriel High School, where she was Senior
