Just prior to the commencement of the cruise the crew and their guests gathered in festive mood to crown Miss Lorrain DePierro of Los Angeles MlSS VALLEY FORGE of 1947. In the after- noon the ship's first lady was met at the airport by an honor guard and was es? corted to the carrier. She was piped over the side in true Navy fashion and was taken on a tour to meet the crew and to have dinner with them aboard. That evening the charming young lady presided over the farewell dance at the Pacific Square Ballroom in San Diego. In a colorful ceremony the Commanding Officer made Miss De- Pierro an honorary member of the crew. Afterwards ship's company and their guests danced to the coruscating melo- dies of the VALLEY FORGE CONTI- NENTALS, under the direction of R. D. Clendenon, MUC.
