fashion coordinator of some sorts. She was putting together a fashion show and needed teenage
models for summer outfits. Since Barbara fit this description, Rita included her in the show.
A local newspaper was doing a story about the up-coming fashion show and included a picture
of the girls in their outfits. Unfortunately, the article also included the names of the schools
the models attended. Aunt Barbara was pictured in a pair of fifties-style shorts, not short-shorts, but definitely not Bermudas.
It is my guess that you can imagine what happened when one or more nuns read this story and
saw the picture that went with it. If the whole community read it at breakfast, we are talking
the biggest orange- juice spit-take in history.
Barb was reprimanded and humiliated before fellow students and was forbidden to take
part in the fashion show. The moral of this story: it is okay to bare your soul at SEA, as long
as you don't bare your legs.
