K ' 8 Page Ninety-eight SENIOR PROMENADE On the evening of Friday, June 18, all seniors dressed in their best bib-and-tuckers betook themselves to the Wilby Gymnasium for the Senior Promenade. Every one was in high spirits, the girls in their most exquisite attire and the boys in their tuxs or white flannels. The gym was transformed into a ballroom. Leaven- Worth's colors were in the center. Cozy nooks and comfortable chairs were arranged about the hall. At 8:15 the music began. At first it was concert music which gave the late-comers time to arrive. At 8:45 the dance music started. At either end of the room sat the patrons and patronesses, who were Mr. and Mrs. Allen, Mr. and Mrs. Robinson, Mr. and Mrs. Lord, Mr. and Mrs. Bassett, and Dr. and Mrs. Cinq-Mars. Refreshments were served in the cafeteria of the school. The music was furnished by Brink- man's Orchestra. Elizabeth Wilhelmina Schneider. 5? E
