The contest was organized by the newspaper Nasz Przeglad. Here is the first page of Nasz Przeglad Ilustrowany, March 31, 1929. On the right photo: A satirical drawing from the magazine "Humor" about the Miss Judea pageant. The caption above the drawing: "Miss Judea matzo balls". The figure in the photo exclaims, "Aj ja ja... Just look at those matzo balls." You know what balls you're talking about. At least not with matzo...
Polish ministers were often visited Janusz Korczak´s Dom Sierot. In 1932, on the 20th anniversary of Dom Sierot, there was again such a visit. Among others, there was a very good-looking 21-year-old woman. The children gave her flowers. Who was she? She was Poland's "Miss Judea" ("with the characteristic features of the Polish Jewish female type") - Zofja Ołdak (Zofja Ołdakówna).
