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

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.

Through the kind co-operation of Father Smith the gym was engaged twice a week, Wednesday evening for practice and Sundays for games to be played with various Alumni and Independent teams throughout the city. Charlie Kohler volunteered to coach the team and act in the capacity' of athletic manager. A call for candidates was made and a large number of luminaries from other years gathered together, forming quite a representative squad. Uniforms were purchased and the schedule being completed, the team went out to defeat the High School varsity in its initial attempt. As the season progressed, some of the city's best were met in games which were hard played and well attended. The final records show that in spite of strong opposition the team broke even in the number of games won and lost, which after all, made the season a successful one when one remembers that this was the Alumni's first year in organized basketball circles.
