OH COME NOW, EDDY, IT COULD. N T HAVE BEEN THAT BAD Bossv, BESSY, AND PAT THORNHILL KLEFT TO RIGHTI OGLE WHILE ELEANOR RICH- ARDSON LENDS A HAND TO BILL WELLMAN Barn Dance When a full harvest moon, a starry sky, and a frosty autumn night get together on Friday, October lO, anyone would think the weather man had been hired by the decoration committee. At any rate, the Senior Barn Dance this year was successful, with blue jeans, gingham skirts, and pigtails to help. Even while Chuck Bennett and his plaid-clad or- chestra swung out on the Little Brown lug and lf24fl Chattanooga Choo-choo, some few of the hired hands sat out on bales of hay for a few dances. Few of the bids were lost this year, because they were printed on triangular bandanas and tied around the necks of the owners' dates. When it was all over, ten or twenty adventurous Angels piled back into the ox cart that brung 'em and wound slowly homeward.

ANGELS HARD AT WORK AT THE HERCULEAN TASK OF TERPSI- CHOREAN ART Seraph Swing Pique formals, summer coats, and two-tone shoes shunned the moth balls until after September Z7 this year and took advantage of their last chance to show off until spring. Occasion for such sum- mery atmosphere was the annual Seraph Swing, the baby of the six girls' clubs, Clio. Cruisers, lunto, Minerva, Thalia, and White jackets. Festivity was the keynote of the decorations, carried out in gid- dily-striped balloons and pennants flaunting the names of the sponsoring clubs. Following through with the pennant motif, the bid committee ordered red and white invitations to the dance. Music was rationed out by Stan Koskoff. Traditionally, this first dance of the year is given on the night of the first football game of the season, which often provides triumphant Angels with data for conversation. Not so jubilant was the cheering section this year, howeverfthe Angels had taken a l2-9 beating from West that afternoon, JOHNE VAUGHN, CHARLYN FUL- TON, AND MARILYN SHAPCOTT REGISTER BOREDOM, INCREDULITY, AND INTEREST TO THE PEARLS OF WISDOM OF CRAIG HURST

Autumn 'N Eve The I-li'Y boys turned over several new leaves this year, sprinkled them on a false ceiling, and used them as the theme of their annual dance, Autumn 'N Eve, held on November 7. They further disguised the boys' gym with large copies of the Hi-Y pin, which they hung over the baskets, and an oversize musical score, used as the background for the orchestra. Then, to assure a good time to all their customers, they hired Don Wickham's orchestra to cook up a little mood-making music. ln the same vein, the bids were maple leaves printed on beige cards. As usual, the girls found that elbows were in order as the most efficient weapon to be used in getting at the mirror for a quick paint job after the dance, but no holds were barred in the boys' fight over the best-looking overcoat.
