Tl-Ili KliNgOLL 19 5 -4 Page 19 Dear Diary: To-day we had a tea-dance in the gym, for the first time this year. There was a good turnout (grade niners for the most part) and everyone had a good time dancing to the music of the “Rain- beaus” which has several boys in it from our own school. I do hope we have another very soon. P.S.: I’ve heard some rumours that a few lucky girls got date-bids for the Sleighbell at this dance. Could that possibly have been its purpose—I won¬ der? December 18, 1953 Dear Diary: Kennedy’s 5th Annual Sleighbell Prom was held to-night. As usual the Social Committee planned the gorgeous decorations. The customary Christ¬ mas tree lighted the gym with beautiful colored lights from the centre of the dance floor. These brilliant lights were also reflected from the mir¬ rored ball which revolved slowly at the centre of the ceiling. Alternating red, green and white streamers added to the festive decorations. Novelty decorations were used for the backboards—alter¬ nately, three of the backboards dislayed red poin- settias and huge white bells on a green background and the other three wore snowflakes and lovely white poinsettias and a red background. Icicles on the rim of the baskets made us remember that it was winter. On cither side of the cokestand two lifesize Santa Clauses pointed gaily to the refresh¬ ments at intermission. Above the cokestand Ru¬ dolph, with his shiny nose, was about to begin his flight with Santa in his silver tinsel sleigh and pack. A grand march, led by Mr. and Mrs. Ward, highlighted a splendid evening. Everyone is look¬ ing forward to the next Sleighbell Prom in 1954 Kennedy’s 25th Anniversary. —MARY RAPAWY Dear Diary, I o-nighl was the night of Kennedy’s annual Roundabout; the “K-Hop.” A capacity crowd danced under a lovely fcanopy of blue and gold streamers. Coloured lights were reflected onto the dancers by the sparkling mirrored ball as it slowly revolved in the centre of the canopy. The stage was decorated in gold and blue also. A huge gold “K” stood out on a lovely blue background dotted with tiny stars. Each backboard was decor¬ ated by the colourful letters of the various schools. During intermission many couples took advantage of the novel “cokestand” with its gay blue and gold canopy. A wonderful orchestra and whirling couples completed this picturesque scene. The dance, enjoyed by couples from all schools, was a tremendous success. This dance highlighted the social events of the school year.
