«i Hennessey Pennessey Tootled the Flute 1) RYN Mawr was still very new to us when Parade Night arrived — and we - rolled down the hill to the hockey field roaring out our Caisson Song to the boom boom of the Firemen ' s Band. With this successful invitation into the traditional activities of Bryn Mawr, we were really beginning to feel at home. When Lantern Night came, we, clad in caps and gowns for the first time, burst forth with Greek anthems . . . triumphant after having recited what we thought was cultural jibberish to the Juniors. We had to drop our Red Lanterns for Midsemesters and English papers, but along with the snow in December, came the excitement and bustling of pre- parations for going home. We found plenty of time to enjoy the caroling of the Maids and Porters, and the Glee Club. As for Christmas dinner, don ' t think for a minute that our eyes weren ' t opened by the goings-on — professors playing like students and students playing masters of ceremonies; wreaths of cigarette smoke and wreaths of holly in the dining room; tomato juice cock- tails and hors d ' oeuvres in the show cases where afterwards we, the freshmen, performed like trained seals. After Christmas vacation, we jumped from the Paoli Local into the Freshmen Show. (Note: avoiding all mention of mid-terms and more long papers.) We thought well of ourselves ... six hundred tons of loveliness in gorgeous techni- color. Our chorus was not to be equalled and even the Sophomores were sub- dued by the notorious Devil Dance of Love, Fret, and Cheers .
