description: The top social affair of last month was the Chinese Association of Commerce sponsored Chinese New Year Festival at W.K. Gardens where 400 guests jampacked the diningroom to enjoy an enriched program of feasting and entertainment. Highspot of the evening was the pageant of ancestral worship complete with a barbecued pig to immolate the Kitchen God. Chinatown Queen Donna Yee and Mayor Tom Alsbury admire the oblation (cover photo). Scenes of the celebrations are graphically illustrated in the next two pages. (continues in p17-19)
