Social %om Social hour: ' Now let me see. Oh, yes, the things they have during the day to gel out of class, and during the night to get out of the house. Before shoe rationing went into effect, the main purpose of the social hour was to be sure the walls would hold together, but now they ' re trying to see how many No. 17 coupons they can ruin. Most of our dances are lots of fun, and as the Readers Digest says, Almost gay! ' Someone was heard to remark the other day that the management com- mittee should line the walls with flower pots so the wall flowers could plant their leel in them. On the whole, though, we ' re quite pleased with our dances.

' Patty Amid the colorful decorations which were designed after Al Capp ' s famous Dogpatch characters, the Boys ' Association held its annual dance for the Girls ' Association. The Dogpatchers, dancing to the widely known juke box of College High ' ' (appropriately camouflaged), enjoyed a splendid time. The dance featured various Daisy Maes, including Claudia Anderson and Pat Norris. Billie Lou McMillan and Jane Randleman supplied part of the comical touch through their interpretations of Sadie Hawkins and Pansy Yokum. The boys also contributed to the theme with their various characterizations of Lil ' Abner. Hairless Joe. Lonesome Polecat, etc. The special events of the evening included musical numbers presented by Gale Nims and Neil White, and some bona fide selections sung by Elbie Gann. a C.S.C.E. student and the 1:00 aeronautics prof. The party was climaxed by the crowning of the Queen of Dogpatch. This honor was bestowed upon Billie Lou McMillen. 20

tycrfzACf Wlttf Who would be King of the Gypsies ? That was the question to be answered on Friday evening. February nineteenth, when the Girls ' Association gave its annual party for the boys. Approximately fifty students and guests were present to see Bert Ehrmann crowned king with Deane Carson and Glenn Humphrey attendants. Officers of the G.A. presented these three with cleverly wrapped sacks of candy. The affair was held in Kepner Auditorium where a false ceiling in gay colors, a bonfire, wagon- wheels, and a moon lent true gypsy atmosphere. Gypsies always have fortune tellers, and Jo Ann Hambrick cleverly filled the bill in this capacity. Dance programs in red. yellow and green further carried out the theme. The decorations were arranged by Jo Ann Hambrick ' s Decoration Com- mittee with assistance from Annabelle Mooney ' s Welfare Committee. Under the leadership of Vera Bell Smith and Nell Brown the Program and Finance Committee made the clever programs. Guests danced to the music provided by the record-player. At a late hour refreshments of hotdogs. potato chips, and iced pop were served by members of the Social Committee headed by Jane Frasier. Chapcrones included: Mr. and Mrs. E. J. Randleman. Mr. and Mrs. D. E. McMillen. Mr. and Mrs. H. T. Ise. Mr. and Mrs. Stowe Witwer. Mr. and Mrs. Harley Glidden, Mrs. J. S. Doubenmier. Miss Pauline Pogue, Mrs. Juanita Sand- ers. Miss Elizabeth Carney. Mr. and Mrs. Douglas Ward, and Mrs. Marie Wilson. 22
