Tgffe TROJAN The Warrior Lays Aside His Skield b? IRENE JONES Between garden walls overhung with bare branches dripping silvery, sparkling icicles, among snow covered evergreens, with a large red moon sending out chilly, crimson rays over the tops of frosted pines, stately feminine figures in chique frocks of varied hues were seen promenading with masculine figures in dark, severe dress. The main hall of B. II. S. was completely transformed into such a scene of winter that even the cold chills may be felt. Davenports, occasional chairs, tables scattered here and there, large rugs covering the floor, beautiful table lamps casting dimmed rays of light, and music floating from a large radio, added to the beauty and comfort of the place. The first formal affair of the year was well planned and carried out by the senior class for the entertainment of its guest, the junior class. The receiving line, composed of Mr. lines. Paul Hodler, Marv Agnes Hicks. Henrietta Heiman and Opal Moran, greeted each individual upon his arrival. As one enters the auditorium, one still maintains that feeling of King Winter presiding from his throne, for the stage, decked with snow-capped pines, lends to the chilling atmosphere. As the curtains are drawn, one is taken back to the period of the gay ’90’s. Refrains popular in those bright days arc heard and dramatic readings so well-loved in the '90’s are enacted. Hostesses, seated behind a table covered with snow-white linen and set with pewter, served refreshments to the formally attired guests as they emerged from the auditorium and descended to the east landing. On the day of April 14, Beloit High School seemed very much deserted. A few faithfuls dragged themselves forcefully and manfully through the necessary routine of the day, but a large number were missing. Several classes were conducted by substitute teachers and all in all the school was a terribly dreary sort of place. What had happened ? Who were the culprits who had upset things so terribly? Just one more guess! The seniors were enjoying their annual sneak day and had also kidnapped four faculty members for the day. Before school had begun in the morning, the scoundrels were proceeding on their way to Rock City and Lake Goodwin. Upon arriving at Rock City, every one immediately began to climb about scandalously, losing themselves among the rocks, but all escaped without serious injury to themselves or to the rocks. Everybody jumped into rowboats, when the lake was reached, and began rowing madly from one end to the other. Several blisters, suntans and other physical defects were acquired in the process. However, no one forgot to stop his muscular struggles long enough to devour a bounteous lunch composed of just those things of which picnic lunches are made. After long hours of debate and heated argument, the crowd finally decided to adjourn, call it a dav. return home, and snatch enough sleep to enable each one to take up his curricular routine on the ensuing day. On the porch of a lovely colonial home, with a white-haired stately general wandering among the scenes he loved on a southern plantation, we find ourselves gazing in wonderment at a scene of two hundred years ago. In imagination we hear strains of a stately minuet floating in the air. Girls and boys in evening apparel seem suddenly to be transformed to ladies in long, flowing colonial dresses and men in knee breeches and large buckled shoes swaying to the strains of the minuet. General George Washington is the commanding figure who holds our breathless attention. The juniors worked months, both physically and mentally, in preparation for this affair in honor of the Bi-centennial of Washington, at which time the seniors were guests.
