X 1 !RaNlph Roll distributes corsages to the lovelies. y HOP At Canisius the favorite event of the year's merriest and most colorful season is the Holly Hop, the tradi- tional Christmas dance presented by the Senior Class in Kleinhans Music Hall. Held on December 29th-a crystal white night so typical in Buffalo-the holiday-decked Mary Seton Room echoed the good cheer of couples dancing to the soft strains of lrv Shire's music. Following the Grand March, twenty-six students received their most treas- ured Christmas gift, membership in DiGamma, the College's Honor Society. Chairman Jim Hackbush and Faculty Adviser Father Fitzsimons, with the aid of St. Nick, made the holiday a happy one for Canisius by bringing spirit and success to the dance. Dietrich tapped into DiGamma.

...snag .f1ggp... 1 I I Ideal Man and date arrive at Prom. On January 2lst, amid the candle-lighted tables en- closing the perimeter of the dance floor in the Statler Ballroom, Billy May's orchestra created the May in January mood of this year's Junior Promenade. Following the precedent established last year by the present Seniors of engaging a name band, the Class of '56 brought the nation's second most popular dance band to Canisius. The gala occasion was suc- cessfully arranged by Co-Chairmen Bill Chandler and George Bryant who, aided by their Committee, pre- sented roses and stuffed Griffins to the students' dates. At the hour of midnight Bill Ragan received the College's most honored award, the title of Ideal Man. And in keeping with the Canisius policy of never ignor- ing the fair maidens,,pretty Miss Barbara Rossman was crowned Queen of the Junior Prom. The Queen and the Ideal Man, accompanied by their dates, then led the colorful Grand March through the Ballroom to close the highly successful dance. -P' f If Dancing to the music of Billy May
