W-7 Y AFTER much excited planning and practicing, the day of the Baby Party, February 20, finally arrived. That morning invitations in the form of old fashioned school slates were presented to the freshmen. One- thirty, the starting time, found seniors and freshmen alike licking lolly-pops and eagerly awaiting the program. The seniors' program began, after a welcome speech by the class presi- dent, with Gloria Thompson singing Frasquito Serenade. Gloriana Jahn, who followed, played the Inter- mezzo from Cavalleria Rusticana, on her violin. We were delighted with Robin Ahrens' rendition of De- bussy's Clair de la Lune and with Etta Mac Palmisano's singing Be- causcf' Then, of course, we had to have something to make the fresh- men land the seniors, laugh: A skit entitled The Three Bears, prepared especially for the occasion by our gifted Miss Camp, proved to be just the thing. The chairman of the reception and games committee, Margie Duemling, Twenty-two SENIOR CLASS Baby Party For Freshmen Baby Party explained the games to the freshmen. In the first they were told to un- scramble some letters and form the names of America's former presi- dents. Next they tried to form as many words as they could from Freshman B's.' 7 The freshman program began with a tap-dance by Shirley Harrison and Edna Lee. A number of freshmen entertained with classical selections. The first of these was Barbara War- ren, who played Paderewski's Min- uet. We were all amused with Mary Lou Carey's recitation of Mary Had a Little Lamb. I have mentioned only .a few of those who took part in the program, but each one added to the enjoyment of the afternoon. During the freshman program ice cream and delicious cookies were served, the cookies being a product of Miss Roy's department. The party came to a close with the class song, written by Jane Whiteside and Jennie Bell Germann to the tune of There I Go. It was a pleasant party, and all seemed to enjoy the program, num- bers, and refreshments. Chairman of the committees re- sponsible for the party were: Rergplfmz and Gamer ................
