From the Ohio Jewish Chronicle, June 3, 1949:  “Miss Jackie Cohen, 650 S. 22nd St., was crowned Queen of the Ball last Monday evening at the Neil House, during the 9th annual Aleph Zadik Aleph Sweetheart Dance.  Competing with Miss Cohen for the honor were the Misses Friema Goodof, Doreen Block and Barbara Stein.

In the above photo, taken by the Herb Topy Studios, the 1949 Sweetheart is surrounded by officers of three host chapters for the dance.  Admiring Miss Cohen, her trophy and her roses are, left to right: Bernard (Buzz) Kantor, Aleph Godol of AZA chapter 498; Si Sokol, president of BBYM, and Bob Feldman, Aleph Godol of AZA chapter 155.” (CJHS HT 310)
