"Miss Australia" Arrives: Miss Australia - Margaret Hughes (left) - seen on arrival at Tilbury this morning May 30 aboard the liner "Orcades". With her is Chaperon Mrs. Joyce Snelling, a major in the Australian Army Women's medical service, who was granted special leave to accompany Margaret Hughes. Margaret won the trip in a nation-wide contest, but, due to a dispute between New South Wales organisers and those in other states, she is now sponsored by New South Wales, and not recognised as "Miss Australia" by the rest of the country.
