D. M. C. I. BREEZES 37 ROOM RUMORS ROOM 6 Room 6 had a fast and furious debate during the month of March. There were six debaters: Queenie Hunter, Phyllis Clancy, Eileen Boles, Phyllis Duxbury, Margaret Magnusson, and Evelyn Gregg. The subject of the debate was: “Resolved that the world is growing better.” After each side had presented its argument, the class, acting as “honorable judges,” awarded the decision to the affirmative. However, the result was very close, the votes being 14 to 13. —M.M. ROOM 7 Room 7 wishes to thank Miss Douglas for the very enjoyable after¬ noon we spent at her home on Wednesday, December 18th, 1927. There were about twenty-five girls present. When all had arrived, each one of the girls had to give some form of entertainment. Among these was Dorothy Paulin’s dancing of the “Californian Shuffle.” Some of the others danced also, to the accom¬ paniment played by Clara Drew. At five-thirty refreshments were served. Then the girls danced again, and soon we all left for home. On leaving everyone expressed thanks for the very enjoyable time they had spent that afternoon. —W.W.
