Stuart Jaycees Labor Day beauty pageant winners for 1962. "Miss Martin County," Carolyn Johnson on the left and "Miss Stuart Jaycee," Karen Broome stands on the right. Both pageant winners hold bouquets of roses.
Several men lined up in front of the stage at the Stuart Jaycees Labor Day beauty pageant. The men are dressed in women's clothing. Very similar photo published in the Stuart News (6 Sep 1962) with the caption "Baloney Beauties added entertainment but not looks to the Stuart Jaycees' annual beauty contest Monday night at the Pelican Hotel pool." Poor copy.
"Miss Stuart Jaycee" winner, Karen Broome (left), has a beauty pageant sash pinned onto her shoulder. Two runners up, Linda Feldman (center), Becky Savage (right) stand on Broome's right. The young women all participated in the 1962 Labor Day Beauty Pageant, sponsored by Stuart Jaycees held at the Pelican Hotel pool.
