It was a perfect riot of fun and a howling success. Several days before the Carnival the classes selected their candidates for Carnival Queen. The candidates selected were as follows: Winifred Osborn, Seniorg Naomi Austin, Juniorg Dorothy Easter, Sophomore, Wanda Bennett, Freshmang anl Mildred Lemmon, Junior High. lt was very difficult to choose the most beautiful, but as the voting began in earnest the race was left be- tween Winifred and Naomi. After many anxious moments Naomi was declared the Queen of the Carnival. The coronation took place at the Carnival. The main program was given in the auditorium. It consisted of several snappy dialogues, musical numbers, dancing, and a boxing match between Reginald Isdahl and Leonard Ford. After the program everyone went to the gymnasium where many booths were gaily decorated. Those in charge of the booths tried to excel one an- other in the attractiveness of their booths. Dainty little fairy waitresses in the cafe served ice cream and other deli- cacies. Dancers also entertained the diners in the cafe. The many beauties of the evening were created by Leona Tolefson and Lila Kocher in the beauty parlor. While many were filling up on hot dogs and candy, others were -enjoy- ing the art gallery, fish pond, and nigger babies. The Strong family and the gypsy fortun-e tellers caused a great deal of interest to those who were very curious. After enjoying themselves for several hours everyone left, tired but happy, saying that the Junior Class of 1927 had given the best Carnival of them all. R. P. B., '28.
