General Note
The Junior/Senior Wedding was a tradition in the 1920s until 1927. The juniors dressed as bridegroom and groomsmen and the seniors dressed as bride and bridesmaids. This tradition was replaced by a medieval fealty ceremony. Shown is the bridesmaid with escort.
The original image can be found in M99-23. It came from a scrapbook kept by former FSCW student Dorothy Dodd.
Nell Carol, "Groom"; Stanley Cornwell, "Bride."
