LllzzIElIly HAT beautiful
lANN sight was the crown
lAXV ing of the May Day
Nv queen at Women's
- College on Satur-
day! And the incest of all was
that a great number of folks
present knew her and also
knew how justly she deserved
TO be the queen. Lillian Mar
shall, of Lewes, was the fortu-
nate person to have the honor.
Lillian often visits here just as
her mother, the former Miss
Sue Watts, used to do a genera
tion ago. Her height and her
blondness made her a lovely
figure and with the dignity Of
her costume, she was all one
would expect, to see in a real
queen. The day was a bit cool
for the Out-of-doors activities,
but this made no difference to
those who looked on with
much interest and pleasure.
The May Day dance in the eve
ming in Kent Hall brought to
an end a wonderful day for the
queen and her court.
