JUNIOR-SENIOR BANQUET With each Spring Quarter comes the activities that surround the life of the graduate. One of the most outstanding of these activities is the Junior-Senior Banquet. On April twenty-ninth the Senior Class was the guest of the Junior Class, at the annual banquet. Introducing into this event a novel theme, the Junior Class wove into the banquet a setting, which depicted an oft-repeated historical scene, a Badlands Round-up. The scheme, along which the decorations were laid, closely followed the theme. On the tables and around the dining hall were reminders of the day when North Dakota was still in its infancy. Colored clays, pieces of scoria, cedar boughs, and an artificial campfire, created the atmosphere of the round-up. In the role of cattle, being rounded-up for the purpose of separating the ‘‘stuff that’s fit to go from the “throw-backs”, both classes participat- ed in the program with much “mooing” and “lowing”. Wayne Stroup, chosen toastmaster by the Junior Class, in his role of “Intermittent Mooer”, had charge of the program, which was opened by William Gunderson, Junior Class President, with a speech entitled, “Wel- come Moo”. “Responding Moo” was the answer given by Glenn Houghton, Senior Class President. Also appearing on the program, President H. O. Pippin gave the “Badlands’ Range Orders”; II. E. Murphy, the Senior Class Adviser, spoke about the “Stuff That’s Fit To Go”; and L. G. Pulver, Jun- ior Class Adviser, sighted the market condition of the “Throw-Backs”. As the program drew to a close, Esther Largis, a Senior, in a Lowing From the Trail”, and Genevieve Switzer, a Junior, in a “Lowing From Over the Hill”, spoke the farewells of the two classes.
