May Day festivities, Annie Wright Seminary. Younger girls dressed in white dresses with sashes at their waists and dark ballet shoes perform a traditional Maypole dance to the delight of May Queen Becky Broughton and her court. The dancing girls are members of the school's third class. The dancers will twist the pole's streamers in an attractive pattern by going over and under the others' streamers. This largely European holiday celebrates the coming of summer. (TNT 5/20/1956, pg. D-1)
