Li Robin Engel, Miss Hawaii of 1967, is getting ready for her trip to Atlantic City and the Miss America pageant. To find out how she feels as departure time nears, the Star-Bulletin assigned a reporter who should he both knouledgeable and sympathetic. Robbie Conlan, who wrote the following storv, was Miss Hawaii in 1965. By BOBBIE CONLAN "You never feel as glamorous as you think people expect you to be I kept thinking I wasn't living up to the image." But at 9:30 on a Monday morning, Robin Engel, Miss Hawaii 1967, looked every inch (all five feet, three inches) a beauty queen.

With less than two weeks to go before she leaves for Atlantic City and the Miss America Pageant, Robin is diligently "banging away" on the piano, making appearances, and getting her wardrobe ready for the trip. "I'm not as busy (with appearances) as I had expected to be," she said. "I sort of wish now I'd gone to summer school." The 21-year-old blonde will be a senior political science major at the University of Hawaii and hopes to join the foreign service. A table laden with gifts dominated the living room of the Engel home on Diamond Head Road. Robin's father, Rear Adm.

Benjamin F. Engel, is commander of the 14th Coast Guard District. Mrs. Engel searched frantically through everything in sight, looking for her car keys. Last week was hectic "We're recovering from a wedding." she said, which explained the hardworking boy who was lugging fold-up wooden chairs from a billowing tent outside to a large van in the driveway.

Robin's younger sister, Penny, married Bowdoin Lusk last Saturday night. And a few days before that, Gov. and Mrs. Owen S. Aspinall of American Samoa spent two days as guests of the En-gels.

"Mother had to throw a formal dinner party," Robin said and, remembering the hectic week, added, "I thought we were all going to blow our lids. But now we can concentrate on me," she laughed. She spoke willingly of the first two months of her reign, during which time she has concentrated on preparing for the pageant. We own several hundred shares of one fund and a smaller amount of a second. The first, which sells for about $9.50, paid out 48 cents in dividends and 44 cents in capital gains a total of 92 cents last year while the second, which sells for about $15.25, paid out 37 and 50 cents, a total of only 87 cents.

How do you account for the fact that one distributes a total of nearly 10 per cent while the second distributes less than 6 per cent. I asked my broker, but he couldn't explain. I could sell the second at a profit and, put the proceeds into the first. A Comparing mutual fund performances can be tricky and when you do so on the basis of one year's results you are using far too narrow a base. Fund it's true, distributed 92 cents last year and, as of the day your letter was received, had asset value of $9.43 a share.

But if you look back over the last 10 years you will find that its advantage over fund is far from clear. During that period, the first fund has risen only about $2 in asset value, a gain of about 27 per cent, whereas the second has risen from about $8.25 to about $15.25, or a rise of about 85 per cent. So if you were to add long-term gain to annual payout you could make quite a case for Fund B. Also, fund goals vary. One may aim at aggressive growth and assume all the risks necessary thereto.

A second may offer a higher degree of safety. It would be unfair to compare the two on the same basis. I am 72 with $1,000 in Youngstown Sheet Tube shares. I've been advised to sell out and buy some foreign utility because it pays 9 per cent. A This comes under the heading: Do you want to eat better, or sleep better? Youngstown is a B-plus company which has paid dividends without interruption for more than a quarter century.

Currently it yields 5 per cent. The power company has paid dividends only since 1965. Last year, I went into a mutual fund under the Keogh plan (I am self-employed.) Since then I have read about no-load (non-commission) funds. Must I stick with this fund in order to stay under the Keogh plan? A No. Many no-load funds also offer Keogh plans.

But before you make any decision, consider: 1. The fund you've bought is one of the leading growth funds and has an impressive record. 2. If you signed up under a contractual plan, half your payments so far already have gone to prepay commissions. These, which will reduce commission costs for the balance of your plan, would be lost if you withdrew now.

I am 24, married, I bought 20 shares of Eastern Air Lines at 57. I intend keeping this for at least six months, sell when it goes to $95 or better. Please send me a list of growth stocks. A As of the day your letter arrived, you had only 37 points to go. The growth list is on its way back to you in your envelope.

"It's hard sometimes, though, to draw the line between what you should do as Miss Hawaii and what you would do if you were only "It's funny people often ask 'What has being Miss Hawaii meant to you' or words to that effect and it's such a strange question.

I was afraid people would say 'That's Miss Hawaii?" But then I decided, 'Well, they chose me for me so here I "I kept thinking Correspondence flew last month between pageant directors and Robin, regarding the talent portion of the contest Robin had to change piano pieces twice, once at the recommendation of judges here and again because Mainland officials said another contestant had already chosen the piece. All information and a tape of the number had to be in by Aug. 5.

Night of the taping "I remember the night we taped," Robin said, shuddering slightly. "I'd had one week to pick a new song, learn it, and tape it! It was horrible. I was in tears, my father was upset because our tape recorder was being repaired and we'd had to borrow one it was the worst night I'd ever spent." She laughed ruefully at the memory. Asked if holding the title had meant any great sacrifices, she thought a moment, then said, "No. It's been all gain.

At first I was going to say 'privacy', maybe, but really, after a while you don't notice it. "At first, when boys would whistle when I went by in the car (which has a large official Miss America Pageant seal on each door) my first reaction was to snub them," she said.
