Ten women model evening dresses and suits in a style show that was a fund raiser for the Orthopedic Guild and the Tacoma Day Nursery. An immense crowd, nearly 4,000 people, turned out to find out that the rumors of a super-colossal, musical style parade with impersonations of presidential candidates were true. A stage and runway was built at the College of Puget Sound Fieldhouse for the event. (TNT, 9/28/1952, p.D-3)
