128 The TRAIL Opening Reception S usual, the lirst-social event of the year was the opening recep- ffyi itgiixxll tion for the friends of the college, faculty, .alumni and students on Friday evening, September 33rd. The parlors were filled ,LQQVQA with a gay, chattering throng, which was quiet only long enough to listen to some delightful musical numbers consisting of a piano solo by Elbert Rice, a violin solo by Lucy Miller and a vocal solo by Edith White. Dr. Boone gave one of his delightful talks to the incoming class. At a late hour refreshments were served and after singing College Loyalty, the guests departed wishing for the college a splendid year of achievement. I'Iallowe'en Masquerade N the mystic eve of Saturday, Oct. 30th, the young and the old, Z the slim and the plump, the long and the short, the various types of collegiates affiliated with this institution, assembled to enjoy the annual Hallowe'en Masquerade in the Sterry Hall auditor- ium. In order to reach the scene of the festivity the candidates were forced to thread their Way through a horrible labyrinth, beset with all sorts of obstacles and punctuated with spectral shrieks from devils C?J who persecuted these strugglers. When at last they reached the brilliantly lighted room they found all the spirits of ancient Hind and the ouija board come to life.

Petite Columbines and Harlequins, Julius Caesar, Abraham Lin- coln, Martha 'Washington and Cleopatra, were there, the only personality lacking was that of the inquisitive Sir Oliver Lodge. Cowboys kept the company in a state of chronic terror by wildly shooting up the town after each drink of hard C175 cider, and each doughnut. Money was cheap and plentiful. When they unmasked everybody recognized their old friends and re- marked, I knew you all the time, and Went home in a happy frame of mind. The Annual Banquet, given by the football squad, was held at Shep- perd's on Thursday evening, December 9th. This banquet marked the successful culmination of the football activities of this season. The room was beautifully decorated in the College colors. The table extended in a T shape, the full length of the parlor. A large bouquet of white carnations adorned the center of the table. The interest centered around a sumptuous seven course dinner, exquisitely served. Mr. H. R. Cleaver, with his usual wit, presided as toastmaster. The football letters were presented to the squad, after which various appropri-
