'-'i- ' uf TTT ' 'f' W Join the Party After the ball was over, nearly all the promenaders attended the party at the Coun- try Club. Following an evening of dancing and eating, several became involved in a little dare. Some ingenious lad suggested a bit of golf. and without much persuasion he had twelve droopy-eyed volunteers beside him. Their score being in the low seventies after the first hole. they decided to move on to another party. Later, the prom-goers decided it was high time for breakfast, so they became self in- vited guests at the home of one of their group. With some food in their stomachs, they picked up added energy and strength to call on other friends for second breakfasts. Many hours and many courses later, the party-goers Cvery full and tiredj decided to head for home. They were happy that the day was a holiday, as they would undoubted- ly have been late for first hour class.

Prime entertainment feat of the junior class. the 1951 Prom was held at the Terp ballroom on May 29. Maestro Cliff Kyes and his orchestra controlled the downbeats. Well-filled dance programs were checked minutely before each new number began, and again couples changed partners to swing into the strains of a waltz. Halfway through the evening, junior and senior officers and their partners took the lead in the Grand March as full lights came on for the benefit of chaperones and guests. Flash bulbs flickered, and the soft swish of many feet could be heard above the music as the endless lines went through the forma- tions of the March. On they danced through the cool evening, stopping only occasionally for a refreshing bottle of pop. Many of the less enduring couples made their way to the booths for a few minutes of much-needed rest. Although the Prom itself ended at mid- night, it did not finish the festivities. Private parties were held in individual homes, and larger groups adjourned to the Country Club. Yes, a gopher might well remember this night long after his golden gopher skin has turned to silver.
