here among us,-stu- COMMERCE 1 BULLDOG 1 RECORD life'- Commerce Carnival CSIl,5F7'i'iXFIl by fllrs. J. Newmanl F two successive events can create an institution, the Carnival is one of the traditions of the High School of Commerce. The Carnival, held for the second time on October 17, was a phe- nomenal success despite the ominous rain-clouds floating by overhead, for the sum of 35473.46 was made to swell the fund over which Miss Garbarino presides, and which she dispenses to needy students right derby of the profes- sional 'tbarker, in- dents who might other- wise have to leave school. The patio on Car- nival Day was alive with action and color. German frauleins in native attire, thread- ing in and out among the crowds, sold gay Karnival Kaps and home made candy. A chrysanthemum be- decked booth displayed the French Club's dainties. Across the court under the ar- cade floated music from a cabaret where white aproned waiters served ravioli and duced patrons fa K to fnthrow for a ringer and win a bar of candy at the Girls' Association concession, while nearby, the Bio- logea Club's hawker, in 'thardboiled front,'y shrieked his wares, en- deavoring to make himself heard above the pandemonium pro- duced by a fantastic- ally attired band call- ing attention to the Dramatic Club's play. Frisky Demons, oc- casionally sallied forth from Hades, the sideshow of the VVel- fare Club, darting other Italian dishes. Cxgkylfj back into the infernal Raucous yells from ' regions with a crowd Howard VVhite, with conventional cane and in their wake. Pup- pets entertained vast audiences in the gymnasium in a six-act vaudeville show, voted so good by all that it is to be repeated later on. These are but a few of the interesting events at the Carnival. VVhen the final reckonings were made, it was found that the silver cup, the first award, was won by the French Club, which ranked first in financial receipts. To the Italian and Ger- man Clubs respectively went the second and third awards, inscribed banners. The most popu- lar booth, as determined by the number of students visiting it, was the French Club, followed by the Girls' Glee and the German Club in the order named. The Girls' Association, which sponsored the C'arnival thanks Mr. VVhite, the art classes, the Spirit Staii, the Cafeteria, and the janitorial corps for their valuable assistance in making this day a big event in the Commerce school ye-ar. l29l
