. ' ' a t . Stunt Night Such a jolly, rollicking Stunt Night! Everyone had a glorious time, the judges alone felt uncomfortable, for they found it very difficult to decide upon the best stunt. The entertainment began with a short sketch, uSlickerettes,', presented by the Spanish Club. Then the Athletic Association 'staged A Mock Physical and Medical Examinaf tionfl The two victims were thoroughly knocked and pounded in various ways.. Theta Psi gave A Womanls Idea of a Playf, The plates that crashed to the floor appeared realistic enough, but, unfortunately, none of them broke. Phi Beta Phi gave an unusually clever sketch called, 'LThe King's Breakfastf, A prize fight, presented by the Press Club, was the next act. We wish all pugilists would powder their noses, if it would make them look as attractive as our fair combatants. During the intermission Muriel Goudey entertained with three songs. 'gWhat To Do When the Trustees Pay You a Call could have been the caption of Kappa Omega's offering. We'll never forget 'LPat's expression when she moaned, 'Tye made a mistake! She echoed all our own longfendured sufferings in Typewriting. The joint production of the Orchestra and the Mandolin Club was a rare mixture of merrif ment. Imagine Peg,' Daley as Mr. Cnateg Margaret Golden doing the Charleston, Margaret Roche impersonating a Hkidn brother, and an ensemble playing on such weird instruments as saucepans and curtainfrods-just imagine such a combination, if you can, and you will have an idea of the fun that we had on Stunt Night! Dramatic Club 's 'Tamous Artists was very well done. Anna Lewis as Jackie Cooganl' brought a tear to our eyes, and Annie Lewis as Charlie Chaplin dried it up. The German Club brought the evening of laughter to a close with a quaint Dutch Cleanserl' dance. g J The judges then filed off to a secluded spot, and conferred weightily with one another. After much deliberation, Mr. Ames, as spokesman, announced that Kappa Omega had produced the best stunt. And it was all over! n P554 Cast for Spanish Club play: Dona Candida, Mildred Weichelg julia, Mildred Thompf song Don Fmtos, Frances Rosenbaum, Apeles, Frances Randazzog Agapito, Sylvia Isenbergg Don Rgmpeya, Nathalie Case, El Cfriado, Priscilla Bullukian. 168 I I ' - C nr.-. - - - -'::f1 f IL,- .aaas41Q: - - f- Y- an--is . . .. . ., H,
