COVER GIRL: "Lights, camera, action !" -- and WANDA MCKAY, the scintillating ski-euse on Coronet's cover, glides gracefully down a glistening slope right into focus for this gay picture by photographer Paul Parry. Wanda was once known as Miss Quackenbush, back in the days when she was hostessing for TWA Airlines -- and winning laurels as Miss American Aviation. Now she's winning further laurels in motion pictures, for a very obvious reason!
