The Winter Carnival was directed by Warren Paaso. His assistant, Chuck Love, did an excellent job in substituting for Warren when he became ill. The Carnival officially opened on Friday with the men's cross country, progressed through the downhill races, Queen's selection, non-classified events, and was brought to a close at 6:00 Sunday night with the awards banquet. Kay Russell from the University of Oregon was selected as Queen of this year's carnival and was a charming mistress of ceremonies during presentation of the awards. Oregon State College completely dominated the team and individual championships. The University of Washington received the participation trophy. 153
