2/4/20

Competition for the title of Miss Greater Akron of 1961 was incredibly tough, especially since the contestants seemed so strikingly diverse this particular year.
Gerald waited for just that one additional rogue wave that could come in and knock him closer to Richie and give him an impromptu "From Here to Eternity" moment...
Bonita was not one to waste anything, so when her Simplicity pattern for a new one-piece swimsuit also came with the layout for a two-piece, she made Roger a suit from the bottoms and even was able to use up her leftover fabric!

Lucky for Bonita, she and Roger have the same hip measurements so she didn't have to alter the swim suit bottom pattern at all. She found out that fact when she came home from church early and caught Roger wearing the tweed skirt she had just finished making that week!

Truth! (and amen!) Ha ha!

And if you look lower I don't think it stops with the hips. Those sure look like Bonita's double strap sandals on his feet!

I see the Miss Greater Akron contest eliminated the talent portion of their competition and replaced it with a riveting game of musical chairs.

How else could they pick a winner from those cookie-cutter contestants? LOL
