Glossy black and white three-quarters/full body photograph of (from left to right) Trudy Kennedy (Sorority president), Myrtle Miller ("chairman of the convention committee"), and Dr. Bill Forbes ("foundation chairman"). Trudy is wearing a long-sleeve shirt with shorts and knee high boots. Myrtle is wearing a beaded dress with a necklace and eyeglasses, and Dr. Bill is wearing a suit with eyeglasses. All three are holding a cheque between them, and they are all looking at the cheque. Trudy and Bill are seated on benches on each side of the photograph, facing inwards, while Myrtle is standing between them, facing the camera. On the back, their names are written along with "Sarnia Arts Foundation Beta Sigma Phi Sorority Observer April 4, 1972." This photograph was published in the Sarnia Observer on April 4, 1972, on page 15, with the associated tag line, "The Beta Way to Help." The associated text describes how the "Beta Sigma Phi Sorority has donated $1,000 to the Sarnia Arts Foundation to be used for the construction of the light opera theatre, proposed to be built adjacent Sarnia Bay and the government dock." The article lists the names and occupations of those in the photograph, as well as the nature of the Sorority to donate. |
