Even money was bought at this remark- able affair. Shirley McCarty was crowned Carnival ueen with Betty Callister and Afton Brown as attendants. The carnival was gay with mingled sounds of laughter This year s Junior Prom was sponsored by all student body officers. The long awaited affair was held the evening of the twelfth of April. At the door the girls were presented with vari-colored corsages to match their frocks. The roof garden was transformed into a Spanish patio. In the center of the floor was an elaborate fountain spouting streams of water which caught the light and glistened brightly. Brilliant colors beautiful music and the cl-ever decorations filled one with the romance and the dreaminess of an old Spanish scene. No castle in Spain could have been more delightful than the unior Prom of ..9. What could be more charming than the accomplishments of the fair sex? The Girls dance with its feminine sponsorship and feminine originality was one of the pleasantest events of the season. The annual Senior Commencement Dance held toward the end of the school year was a final summing up of the seasn of gaiety. Besides these large aifairs several matinee dances were given. Democracy and a general atmosphere of good-time proved them to be an enjoyable and important part of the year's social events. Sponsoring the dances of the season were the hop mistresses, Ruth Thomson. Shirley McCarty, and Virginia Eppersong and the hop managers, Morgan Sorenson, Richard Lund, and Frank jack.

P' Social Season HE L. D. S. roof garden has fairly rocked with the light-heartedness, the laughter, and the merriment of this year's social season. Students climbed the carpeted stairs, approved of their reflected selves in the mirrors, and whirled into the joy of enticing music and dancing feet. Before each dance of the season there was a feeling of thrilled anticipation and expectant gayety, which were realized in the friendliness and the uniqueness of the affairs. Good times are never forgotten. Vfhat recollec- tions We will have in the future of the enjoyment and pleasant associations which We knew at L. D. S. dances. The season opened with the Get-Acquainted Dance, a matinee affair where in- formality reigned supreme. Friendships were formed, and shyness was forgotten when all joined together in the ever interesting art of getting acquainted. The class dances followed, characterized by the added pep of a successful athletic season. Honoring the men who brought L. D. S. fame through their sportsmanship and prowess, the football dance was given, sponsored by the Student Body. The Founder's Day Dance added a final touch to a series of thrilling celebrations. The impressiveness of the ceremonies gave the students a feeling of love and appreciation for the dear old Alma Mater, which found -expression in the dance of the evening. just preceding Christmas and imbued with holiday spirit was the Christmas ball. Evergreen, bells, and even Santa Claus, staggering under a loaded bag, lent an air of yuletide vim and good will to the occasion which will long be remembered. Then came the carnival! The first night a series of clever one-act plays were presented, in the roof garden. The second evening's entertainment was in the form of a carnival dance. One seemed only to wish for a thing and presto! it was granted. New beauty was sold very cheaply at the beauty parlor, the mysteries and secrets of the dark future were revealed by a clairvoyant lady in picturesque attire: candy, punch, and ice cream could be bought.

Publications S the year advances, the publications staffs work only the harder. They are the main filters of all school activities. Through the columns of the Gold and Blue students get to know each other and the school. Through the pages of the Year Book they treasure the activity of each day, week, and month. Publications are the heart of the school, and often those working on the staffs trem- IXENNIETH S' BENNION ble when they hear too strongly the very beats that mean life and pep and spirit. It is hard work, long hours, and small honor, but it has a fascination all its own. One cannot help but thrill at the sight of long columns and black heads on an inky, wet paper that one has helped to put outg while perfect copy ready for the printer and more pages filled in a Year Book makes extra-curricular work the balancer it is. School publications must present student life, and although the job is big it has a charm to it that keeps students working on staffs. Newspapers and year books do not just come outf' They are edited by grief, and disappointment, and worryg but the glorious part about them is that they are worth every minute spent. With the marriage of Madelyn Stewart, Kenneth S. Bennion became sponsor and took over the task of supervising the work of both staffs. Witli such a difficult position Mr. Bennion succeeded very well, and both editors thank him for the careful attention he gave to each publication and for his great understanding of personal feelings and conflicting forces. The Gold and Blue received first Class Honor rating this year in the All- American Newspaper Contest of the National Scholastic Press Association. The contest was very difficult and the places given valued because of the extreme excel- lence that was demanded of entering papers. The staff of the USU Book has worked hard to put out a Book that is distinctly different. W'e feel that never before has there been such a lovely USD Book with such a consistent theme. The art work especially needs commenting on, because it was done entirely by Art Students and due to their cooperation the Book has a splendid, unified appearance. lt is truly an SH Book for everyone.
