Photograph was edited for publication purposes. Photograph article dated February 20, 1965 partially reads, "Miss Honda '64 gave up her crown to Miss Honda '65 the other night. A delighted crowd watched the proceedings and the parading of 16 lovelies at Andy Kolbe's cycle shop in Reseda....Brownette Linda Carpenter, left, already has several beauty titles to her everlastin' credit. Blonde Linda Thorp, 34-24-34, and I hear a sensational dancer, is still in high school and still in the Dorothy Shreve Charm School. She oughta be something superspecial when she graduates from both!"
