UWT 'sig Elizabeth Brown crowns Mary, our model, as the symbol of our desire to be Mary-like. lt was October nineteenth. The crisp Au- tumn night was punctuated by winlcing stars. Inside, a gracefully arched bridge spanned the gulf between reality and fantasy, and be- came the entrance to our annual Harvest Moon Ball. An oriental atmosphere pervaded the gym, each softly lit corner and wall dis- played some silent token of diligent effort which had blossomed into exotic Eastern beauty this night. Crowning the evening with an orientally regal touch, Mary Barbara Uttal was chosen queen with Catalina Bala- guer and Ardelle Flohr as her ladies-in-waiting. And now the lotus blossoms have faded . . . but in that deepest vault of memory is stored, intact, all the magic and loveliness of our Teahouse of the l-larvest Moon.
