Title

St. Thomas beauty contest

Description

"'All's well that ends well' could well be the moral of the St. Thomas beauty contest. It was late in getting started and some feared it might not have come off. But it did, and on Sunday night Miss St. Thomas, 19 year-old Marcia Cruz, was crowned at Blue Mahoe Inn, Lyssons. Seen placing the crown on the parish queen is Miss Jamaica 1973, Patsy Yuen. Is that a good omen for Marcia? Is it the case of the present queen crowning the future one? Time will tell. At left is second-placer Dorothy Quest; and at right is third place winner Vivine Beersingh."
