CALENDAR ing game, Also on the program was a choral number America Singing, sung by the glee club. The 7th grade displayed in front of proud fathers their dramatic ability in a simple, but clever play. At this year's spring style show, the decoraf tions were more effective than in the years before. Clever arranging of broom stick figures in cos' tumes of various vintages made an interesting background for the gay event. For the first time, the fashion show was accompanied by music. While the glee club hummed Easter Parade the models paraded in and out, offering cheery spring styles. After the show, tea, cookies, and cakes were served to the mothers. May-On Saturday night, May eighth, the juniors held their annual prom. It was entitled The Camouflage Capers and the theme was carried out to the last degree. The gym was gaily decorated with magazine pictures which covered the wallsg especially novel was the huge net, from which varied colored rags were strung. At one end of the room a bar was set up, and in constant use throughout the evening. Everyone from eighth grader to senior appeared to be enjoying herself immensely.

CALENDAR IE SEASONS AUTUMN COLORS CTOBER-The junior Jubilee opened our Social Calendar in a somewhat different fashion from last year. Several phases of our new Student Government were presented. In contrast, Ann Pigott, as master of ceremonies, introduced a quiz program in which members of the audience participated. The Halloween program climaxed the events for the month of October. Everyone was arrayed in colorful costumes, and lent an accustomed Hallowe'en atmosphere to the occasion. After the many games, contests, and plays, a mixture of young and old adjourned to the dining room for a festive meal. November-There's something about a uni' form! Thanks to Leslie Denman the Seniors enjoyed a grand evening of fun and dancing with a group of Army officers. A few of the Alumnae were combined with the older girls and from the cloakroom chatter, everyone was on the beam! There's never a year that the poor aren't well supplied with a Thanksgiving feast. This year there was just as much canned goods and as generous an amount of money as in previous years. Much of our offerings went to the Children's Home, an institution in which we are taking a special interest. As usual there were the traditional spirits of Giving, Receiving, and Thanksgiving-Sana Harrah, Barbara Earling, and june Beck. WINTER FROLICS December-The familiar and enthusiastic singing of the Wassail Song opened our an' nual Christmas ceremony. The theme of an old English Manor House was carried out even to the peacock pie! There were dancing, tumbling, music, and a play, which all contributed to the Christmas atmosphere. This year the program differed from previous celebrations in that a wassail buffet was substituted for the dinner. However, the usual joyous merriment prevailed and once again the tradition was a success! The festive decorations from the Christmas party served well to decorate the Tea Dance. The boys and girls all full of holiday cheer, seemed to be having a wonderful time, dancing to the juke- box and enjoying the Christmas Wassail and millions of cookies. sam I . ..: M-fgr'.2 fi -I ttf:-QW afjeatas. may w-sf i -'fQE,f - f,-1i,5 QT5 5 fl' xr,.Q,.

In a very short time, whistles and shouts announced the children's arrival from school and suddenly a bell brought them into the dining room where we took the opportunity to distribute our personalized valentines while they ate. Immediately after, we showed our cartoons which were tremendously enjoyed. Finally, with promises to come back soon, we departed with a deep feeling of satis' faction. 6441, SPRING MADNESS APRIL-We started the prelude to Spring with a bang-for on April lst was Dad's night with a big turnout of Dads. The star basketball teams, the sophomores and juniors, rounded out the season with a close game-the sophomores winning. There was never a dull moment, for at intermission the more energetic dads donned tennis shoes and tackled the seniors for a rollickf Page Thirty-nine
