FALL FORMAL The Fall Formal,iheld at the Composite High School, Friday, November 27, was as impressive as usual this year. Setting the pace for the evening was the jovial master of ceremonies, Bob Coleman, who filled any gaps with spicy comments. Adding smooth, enjoyable strains to the evening was the rhythmic band of Merv Kraeling. The eye-catching decorations, blue and white streamers delicately hung from the ceiling to the walls, created a dreamy effect. Glittering stars were scattered throughout the auditorium enhancing the atmosphere. Credit for all this goes to Elsie Morningstar and her committee. During the intermission a dainty lu-nch was served by Waiters in White jackets. A great deal of work was put into this, as Gail Field and her committee can well testify. In one of the novelty dances of the evening, Cecilia Page and Gary Gordon managed to pick a lucky spot. The last waltz was followed by Hail Our College and the various yells. A special thanks is extended to Dr. Laskin and his wife for chaperoning the dance. The success of this delightful evening is a credit to the convenors, Ruth Brown and Tom Ross, who did a wonderful job. Eleanor Arnason, T.T.C. One hundred and twentygeight l N
