Here's to the Nurses Home Racketeers, To those badminton tennis and pingpong dears. And here's to the gals with the social graces Who small-Talk at teas about fashions and faces. All hail to the would-be erudite Who burns up kilowatts half the night. A brave salute to the valiantly clean Who bathe and wash clothes before daybreak is seen Here's to the really forgotten men Who inhabit lst South with what patience they can. Here's to our run down socks and shoes Which give the poor head nurses A. M. blues, I-lere's to the Clee Club-a worthwhile thing And emotional outlet lfor those who singl. And here's to the staff of dear old Sonah, For printing this was an awful bone-ah. DC. -51--

The music and floor show were excellent, the crowd very congenial, and the lemons hurled from one couple to another proved a unique favor-not flavor, mind you? The Spring Erolic, an Athletic Association activity had the Easter Bunny as its mascot. Onstead of Putting all Their Eggs in One Bas- ket numerous gay colored ones were filled, which were in every available nook and corner. The Rainbow Hop, sponsored by the First Year Class, was, as the name implies, a very 'irainbowien party, even including the pot of gold. A very gala dance season has been completed by the ever thrill- ing Graduation Dance. Social Dancing classes each week, taught by lVliss Botsford, offer the students the opportunity of learning the fundamental dance steps as well as the tricky new ones, ..50-c
