A voice cut through the silent, dimly lit hall, “Second runner-up, Miss Julia Wright; first runner-up, Miss Margaret Burney.” There was a brief pause —then the voice came again, “Ladies and gentlemen, I now pre sent Miss Sigma for 1963-64— Miss Evelyn Cruse.” The applause was loud and long, and congra tulations were plenty. The voice was that of Mr. George J. Faison, president of Tau Beta Sigma Chapter, Phi Beta Sigma Fraternity, who had the honor of crowning Miss Cruse Sigma’s Queen.
