Petiprin Alumnae Officers THROUGH the efforts of our efficient officers, the social and busi-ness pro- gramme of the Alumnae was scheduled and executed during the past year of 1930. On June ninth, 1930, a meeting was held in the auditorium with Joseph- ine Collins presiding. Plans for the annual banquet were discussed after which a reading was given by Miss Marie Hanneman and orchestral selections by Miss Mary Noud and her associate musicians. When these plans were materialized on the evening of June nineteenth, at the Cadillac Athletic Club, many of the older graduates were there to wel- come the Class of '30 into their ranks. An unusual festive air pervaded the banquet hall on this occasion. The tables were beautifully appointed and the burning tapers tied in blue and white and gold bore, Without Words, the Jubilee message. Miss Mary Forbes, our charming toastmistress, introduced the partici- pants of a programme which proved to be delightfully entertaining. The winter passed uneventfully' until February fifth, when the annual bridge party was given in the auditorium. As is customary the late graduates sponsored this affair and acted as official hostesses. With the co+operation of the Alumni, the Annual Ball was sponsored, de- spite the grave difficulties provided by the pessimistic cloud of hard times. Josephine Collins, Susan Schneider, and Mary Snyder were actively engaged as members on the various committees, and were greatly instrumental in making this the outstanding social success of the year.

The association has grown rapidly and now consists of nearly four hundred members, Many of these men have gained success in the business and professional fields while others are recognized scholars and athletes in various colleges and universities throughout the country. These men through the attainment of their endeavors have brought greater glory to their Alma Mater. At a banquet held early in the fall of 1930, the officers for the present Year were installed. Lawrence W. Cook '24 was made President: John A. Griffith '24, Vice-President: John F. Reaume '27, Secretary and Harold T. Collins '23, Treasurer. The Board of Governors consists of Theodore J. Collins '20, three year term: Edward D. O'Connor '28, two year term and Joseph A. Sulli- van '30, one year term. ' The Alumni were very successful in their social and athletic ventures dur- ing the year. City-wide recognition was given to the basketball team because of their many victorious games. The members and friends were entertained by boxing matches and talks at several smokers sponsored by the association. On April 17, 1931, the annual Alumni Ball was given at the Book Cadillac Hotel. James M, Kohl '29 acted as chairman of this affair. The members look for- ward to the banquet to be held in June when the Seniors of the school will be welcomed into the association. H. GENSLER, '29.

Alumni Dance Committee THE eleventh annual Alumni Ball which was sponsored by the Alumni and Alumnae, held April 17, 1931, in the elaborate Crystal Ballroom of the Book Cadillac Hotel, resulted in the greatest social event in the annals of the Alumni and Alumnae. Approximately one hundred and twenty-five couples, members and friends of the Alumni and Alumnae, danced to the finest tunes in music, which were rendered by Mike Falk and his Collegians. The spotlight with its many colors adorned the couples as they danced throughout the evening with its rays blending with the frocks of the ladies. The dance served its two-fold purpose in that it brought the organiZation's members together and brought out the characteristic of activity to the associa- tion. The committee of which James Kohl was chairman, assisted by Susan Schneider, did all in their power to make this evening a joyous one. Therefore, it takes this opportunity to thank the patrons and all those who aided in mak- ing this event a success by their attendance. The committees are made up of the following: Music-Mary Snyder, Joseph Sullivan, and Susan Schneider. Publicity-John Barry and Reynolds Meier. Tickets-Harold Collins and Harry Gensler. Ballroom-Theodore Collins, Josephine Collins, and James Kohl, Patrons-Jack Reaume and Lawrence Cook. At this time we wish to make use of the opportunity provided us to ex- press our sincere appreciation to the members of the committee for their inter- ested display of co-operation. If the Ball was a success it was in spite of many and serious difficulties. J. KOHL '29. Page Sixty-ltuo
