Beauty loses leg yet keeps zest for life in Stillwater
Roberta Scott, 23, Miss Tulsa 1961 and Miss Oklahoma runner-up, lost her left leg to cancer but continues active life. The OSU student models early, works toward a teaching degree, paints, waterskis, and visits hospitals to encourage others. She hopped to a phone eight days after surgery and now teaches in special education, inspiring slow learners and other students daily.
