F the many social functions given by the classes of the Loyola University Medical Department, the dinner dance of l9l4, held by the class of l9l6, was far the most brilliant and successful. The class and faculty assembled in the famous C-old Room of the Hotel LaSalle. where a sumptuous dinner was served. The honorary president, Dr, A. B. Rankin, presided as toast-master, and his genial humor enlivened the evening for all. Program as follows: University ...... john Louis Mathery, S. J., Henry S. Spaulding, S.

George Each number of the program was given admirably, and all present did ample justice to the repast. After the subsidance of cheers and class yells, we were ushered into the C-rand Ball Room, where the remainder of the evening was enjoyed in dancing. As the last strains of Home, Sweet Home were resounded through the Ball Room, the class departed, each one vowing that this was the best dinner-dance that they had ever attended. Dr. Henry F. Lewis opened his home the First and third Sunday evenings of De- cember and january, to the members of the junior class. Many of the juniors took ad- vantage of this open house and spent very enjoyable evenings. Dr. Lewis and his wife and family welcomed all very heartily, and all enjoyed themselves. IEI4

1 if' JUNIOR PROM. HE CLASS OF l9l5 have taken a prominent part in the social affairs 'of Bennett from their entrance into the college. At the close of their ,Freshmen year they gave a banquet at the Congress hotel, which was so successful that it was duplicated at the end of the Sophomore year. When the Junior year was reached they realized that a social function should be given in honor of the Senior class, and so, after some discussion, a dance was decided upon. Committees were appointed to make arrangementss and secure the necessary financial support. The date selected was April 28th and the place the Hotel Sherman. The second floor, including the Louis XVI, Crystal, Grey and Rose rooms were thrown into one for the accomomdation of the large crowd that was present. The Grand March began about ten o'cloclc. led by Dr. O. C. Huber, our Honorary Class President, and Mrs. john Dill Robertson, followed by Dr. john Dill Robertson with Mrs. Herzog, Dr. Maximilian Herzog with Mrs. Marcusson, and our Class President, lra B. Robertson, with Miss Sherwood. Following these were the Faculty and students, about five hundred in all. The Grey room was set aside for those who did not care to dance. It was very tastefully arranged with small tables and was filled the entire evening with a good natured crowd. The music was furnished by an orchestra conducted by one of the members of the Junior Class and was very well rendered. One of the novel features was the naming of the dif- frent dances for our Professors and the presentation to the first four ladies in the C-rand March of a bouquet of American Beauty roses. The dancers dispersed about one o'clock, all agreeing that they enjoyed a very pleasant evening. 193 ,
