By DAVID NELSON F,,otball only entered briefly into the prol\,ram of the 26th Annual University of San Diego Auxi 1ary fashion show, held last Thursday at the San Die6o Hilton; During the pr ·,!_Unfh 01\,Jr iti:re~Jl.y ~i.llAlQruilprii~~~~ poi;oll\ll;l ~titt11n ~w:1.s made for success m the upcoming USD-Occidental • > • I game. " Although the Toreros wer~ timately downed J4-.t0, the event's planners trad the rest oi their prayers answered. 7he day was beautifu , r,e tur- nout enormous and ent.. ~J.a~ 1c, and the multimedia show, presented by Robinson•. , nothing short of spectacular. The '30s seem universally ;,opular this year, and tl-,e show drew upon the el gant sym:,ols of that decade to enhance its "H1;h Society" theme. Guests heading toward the outdoor cocktail reception pass• ed by Rita Bethea's fa.ca,.: lr l'.nicknamed "Til,y, ") a gleaming wh1 e Ro 1s convertible with a top hat perched on the hood and a huge top hat carved from ice ,et in a case o · white carnations. Ir•.he dining room, more top hats filled with car- nations served as centerpieces, black and silver balloons floated here and there, and silvery boxes of Bi.. .i3lass chocolates de,:orated each place. Chairman Patty E... •~rds (wnose husband Bill manages the Hilton and was on hand for the show) explained that the event benefited the·USD student aid program; Auxiliary p:esident Carol Reilly added that this 1~ the only fund-raiser held during the course of the year. Among he many guests represen• ting the university were Marge and Art Hughes, Sister Virginia McMonagel and Sara Finn. The student body at USD was repre~ented in various ways : by Judy Comito, who is earning a bachelor of science degree in nursing and hopes to graduate at ut same time scr: John is awarded hi~ MBA; by Marilyn Roe, whose son Michael attends the law school, and, potentially , by reservations chairman Pat Keating, whose soon-to-arrive grand- child may one day be a USD graduate.

The show juxtaposed new and old iq a presenta- tion of current fashions highlighted by siniing, dan- cing and vintage film clips of Fred Astaire, Ginger Rogers, Gene Kelly and more. Models in formal wear strutted onstagc t6 Ethel Merman's rendition of "There's Ng. Business Like Show Business - modernized by the addition of a disco beat. The models in the "Argyles" segment danced lo "In the Mood" and looked ready for a garden par- tv; "Sin.11.in11: in the Rain." (with Gene Kelly on the screen) was followed, naturally enough, by a pre- sentation· of men's raincoats. One showstopper was a Busby Berkeley outine in which models ~ported ostrich •eather fans and little else; another occurred when a 1 ittle bov seated in the aud:ence calleu out, -I , Mommy!" as his mother, a model, walked on stage in a black evening gown. /\mong the many members of the Auxiliary and their friends attending were Betty Barrett, Alison Tibbits, Jane Stocklien, Mary Jo White, 'oy Ghio and Jane Sexton.
