TOWER DANCE ATTENDANTS: Dorothy June Masters and Margaret Fisher The suspense mounted as the spotlights flashed on and the trumpets sounded a royal fanfare. The tension was broken by cheers and applause as the 1947 Tower Queen, Mary Garrett, assisted by Leon Dreps, rolled back the sides of the medieval tower revealing the 1948 Tower Queen, Helen Louise Fisher, seated upon her throne. Queen Helen was surrounded by her four gracious attendants, Dorothy June Masters, Julia Sheumaker, Joan Miller, and Margaret Fisher. The coronation ceremony followed with John Parham, Tower Editor placing the sparkling crown, which was carried by petite Jean Joan Zirbel, upon Queen Helen ' s head giving her free reign over the events of the evening. Jack Summers, Tower Business Manager, presented the queen with a beau- tiful arm bouquet of roses. After the ceremony. Queen Helen, her at- tendants, the 1947 queen and their escorts danced to the queen ' s waltz as the audience looked on. A short program followed with Rex Moyer as master-of-ceremonies. Ruth McDowell played Czarda on her violin and Margaret Bowness sang Ballerina . After the pro- gram everyone retired to the lounge for refreshments which were served by Rachael Robinson and Mrs. Anna Parham, assisted by Ruth Wyatt. A medieval theme was carried out. A large backdrop behind the orchestra depicted a fairytale castle upon a hill. The queen ' s tower and throne were medieval, as were the old family crests which decorated the walls. A large fountain with a cascade of pastel lights decorated one corner of the floor. The lounge was made comfortable by many chairs and tables where those who grew weary rested, exchanged witticisms and played cards. The serving table in the lounge was beautifully decorated with a glittering rep- resentation of a medieval castle as a center- piece. It was agreed that the 1948 TOWER DANCE WAS AS HIGHLY SUCCESSFUL AS ANY of the year ' s formal events. ATTENDANTS: Julia Sheumaker and Joan Miller Pages i i -
