CHP cgiisflan Bwlfzzn :4cuJuny dlfiidauinlrz tiuxuuw 20. IQL14 lg Jan. 29th: was the highlight of the win- ter social season at C. B. A. The event was the Annual Winter Formal, held in the school gym from nine to one o'clock. As the elegant couples filed into the hall they found themselves in a setting reminis- cent of the renowned Champs-Elysees of Paris with its boulevard cafes and gay lights. All details of this decor were taken care of by the boys themselves under the direction of Brother James. The music of Doc Zanello's Orchestra was again perfect, and the refreshments served by the Ladies' Auxiliary were enjoyed by all the cadets and their dates. Everyone present had a wonderful time. Members of the Committee were unanimous in saying that the affair was well-worth the effort they had put into it.
