She was crowned by the president of the Junior Class. Ira Bea's crown was composed of red roses and her attendants were presented with arm bouquets. Punch and mints were served throughout the even- ing by a negro maid who wore conventional black and white ma1d's costume. O T d s , K , up uuulu O 73 ' I g - 2 r WI!
