Fall splendor begins To make everything complete for the parade, several businesses were open to display crafts and wares. The annual antique show at the Oakland Armory drew = © Crowned as Miss Charm, Kim tourists and collectors from miles around. There were ree: coon ca bat lice many antiques welcome to the eye, such as: dolls, crys- tal, coins, furniture, and even antique jewelry. Another room in the Armory was reserved for homemade crafts including paintings and woodwork. One student who attended the antique show said, “I thought the show was okay. The part I liked the best was the older an- tiques. The crafts were okay, but the pictures and older crafts were better.” The Oakland College Center located on Center Street served as a craft extravaganza. In every room of the building one could gaze at beautiful artwork and homemade items. A very interesting thing about that show was that you got to see the things being made. Several artistic workers set up booths where you could watch their talent being performed. An event which helped kick off Autumn Glory was Oktoberfest, which is held in the Oakland Fire Hall. Just like the annual celebration in Munich, this Okto- berfest had plenty of good cheer, food, and beer. There was even a live oompah band. A lot of time went into preparing for the parade, making floats and setting up food booths, but now that it is all over, everyone can look forward to next year’s festivities. m.' ae vF One of the many band @ Michelle Hesen and Lisa Sav- members waits to perform age, Miss Maryland Charm, his part in the parade. are happy to be part of the parade.
