The revival of the Dramatic Club's S QQ if custom to give thiree shows a year, the addition of a Football Dance, which is becoming a tradition, and the Glee Club's two concerts all tended to fill out an outstanding schedule. The first event was a Tea Dance following the Morristown football game on Friday, November first. The music for this dance, which was held in the gymnasium, was furnished by Jerry Danzig's Ambassadors, and was first of a long line of appearances at school functions of this organization. Following this came the Fall Dramatic Club Show, The Queen's Hus- band, which was presented at school on the evening of the twenty-seventh of November, the last day of classes before the Thanksgiving recess. This was a great success and was followed by an equally enjoyable dance given in the new gymnasium. The music for this evening was also very well played by the Ambassadors. After this there came no events until almost a month later when, on the thirteenth of December, a Tea was given in the Library in honor of Mr. and Mrs. Tillinghast. This was very well attended by both parents and faculty. The following week, on the evening that school closed for the Christmas vacation, the Football Team gave an invitation dance at the Riverdale Tennis Club. The music for this affair was furnished by Eddie Worth and his County Fair Orchestra, which helped a great deal toward making the evening very enjoyable. just one week from that evening came what was perhaps the most suc- cessful event of the winter, the Alumni Reunion. The dance was pre- ceded by a basketball game between the 'Varsity and Alumni, which gave the evening a most auspicious start. When the dance was well under way there were over three hundred guests present. Thus it was not only the most enjoyable Alunmi Reunion but also the largest that the school has had. The dance was held in the new gymnasium and the music was this time furnished by Al Spiller. It was decidedly below the average. The next event was the Fifth Form Class Dance on january seventeenth, followed the week after by the Senior Class Dance. Both these were given by the Parents' Association and their kindness in making possible two such fine parties was greatly appreciated. The Ambassadors continued their fine record by furnishing excellent music for both these affairs. On the twenty-first of February the Dramatic Club gave its second per- formance of the year, Beau Brummelj' this time at the Roerich Little Theatre on One Hundred and Third Street and Riverside Drive. The per- formance was excellent and the new theatre met with the hearty approval of all present. The choice of the Hotel Marseilles for the dance following was unfortunate and the dance was consequently not up to the standard set by the fall one.

This was followed El , 5, by a dance for the members of the competing Clubs and their guests and y , Q was given by the Intercollegiate Glee Club Council. It was held at the Town X f , Hall Club. f f Two weeks following came the Fourth Form Class Dance, which was per- Q 1 D haps the most successful of the dances given by the Parent's Association. The . dance was held in the new gymnasium and the music played by the now . , popular Ambassadors. l jp l' I The Friday night following this, March twenty-first, came the climax of 'T P 5 . the Social Schedule, The Senior Promenade, held at the Hotel Delmonico, on pl l E 5 Park Avenue and Fifty-ninth Street. The ballroom was very dignified and ll l.l.,l1 furnished in excellent taste and the tone of the affair was very fitting for the rl 6, 1 f pl occasion. The music was furnished by an eleven piece orchestra under the y' 7 i direction of Lester Hood and was entirely satisfactory. The combination of l l I g place, music, and spirit combined to produce a truly fine Prom. The receiv- il X Il ing line was composed of Mr. and Mrs. Tillinghast, Mr. and Mrs. Mayo, if ,I 3 f l and Mr. and Mrs. Herman. Great credit must be given Miss McIntosh and . 2 L l y the Prom Committee, headed by Alan Parson, for their work in connection i l , 1. ,W with the success of the affair. V 2 5 . And now as the MANNIKIN goes to press, there are still four events yi l R to come, namely: the Dramatic Club Spring Show, The Dover Road, , f which is to be presented at school on the twenty-fifth of April,-the Scout V Troops' exhibition and Parents' Night which comes on May ninth,-a f , presentation of S. S. Pinafore, by the Glee Club on May twenty-third, fol- A i . lowed by a dance and finally the closing event of the year, the Commence- Y J . ment Dance, which in all probability will be changed to Monday night, june ' l second, i.e., the night before Commencement instead of, as in previous years, w on the evening following the graduation of the Senior Class. Thus ends the Social Season, but again let thanks be given to Miss McIn- tosh, the Parents' Association, and the Social Committee for their work in making possible so many fine functions throughout the winter.
