WITHIN THE LYCH GATE 1934 SOCIAL EVENTS THE OPENING HOP — SEPTEMBER 23 Once more the opening Hop was a pleasant experience for the new girls while it recalled happy memories for the old girls. The music was peppy and the refreshments were even better. When it was time to sav our goodnights, we were sorry to leave for we were all having such a good time. A PICNIC — SEPTEMBER 30 At Miss Harvev ' s invitation, we all went to the Harvey farm for a picnic. The lunch, which consisted of hot-dog sandwiches, salad, cake, and punch, was popular with everyone. After much eating, our appetities were finally satisfied. Before the walk back to H. M. A., a paper hunt proved to be lots or fun. OLD GIRLS ' PLAY — CCTOBER 7 The old grls entertained the new girls by a plav entitled, The Princess Mar- ries the Page. The new girls felt the old girls had set a high standard of enter- tainment, and they determined to try to reach it. This they did on the following Saturday night. NEW GIRLS ' PLAY — OCTOBER 14 The new girls put on a whiz of a play, Amateur Night Aboard the S. S. Hannah. We soon found out through their acting and tap-dancing, that they had brought a great deal of talent to Hannah More. Everyone enjoyed the entertainment immensely. MOVIES - OCTOBER 21 T.he Juniors entertained us with an exciting movie, Lucretia Lombard, on the night of October 21. Many parts made us hold our breath for fear of what would happen next. It also gave us a chance for a good laugh. 25
