THE CALL is out for former
Queens of the May to come for-
ward and be honored in West
Vancouver’s Community Day
parade on June 6.

Parade Master Emerson Short
promises one of the greatest
parades ever, in this 75th anniver-
sary year of the municipality.

“But it won’t be complete,’’ he
says, ‘‘without the May Queens
who played such an important part
in the pomp and pageantry of

‘ West Vancouver celebrations from

1930 to 1973. We really would ap-
preciate a call from them or from
anyone who knows where they can
be reached.”’

The early May Queens came
from Hollyburn and Pauline
Johnson schools on_ alternate
years, and had- flower girls and
pages. They arrived in state at
