LITTLE GIRLS. This captivating image conveys the funny and sometimes angry moments children have during a hot or long festa. In this classic photograph, one little girl is proudly posing while another is sneering. These are the times festa participants will remember best.

FESTA CELEBRATION, 1958. In the above festa, Little Queen Cynthia Alves (front row, fourth from the left) walks in procession, accompanied by her side maids and court. Shirley Ann Brown Virissimo (front row, third from the left) is a PHC director and wife of tuna captain Rick Virissimo. Below, Mary Oliver (standing, second from the left) serves the priest the sopas meal during the elaborate queen’s luncheon held at the Balboa Park Club. Junior Queen Joanne Balelo is seen with her side maids, and Mrs. May Mitchell is serving her granddaughter and Little Queen Cynthia Alves. (Above, courtesy of Shirley Virissimo.)
