SENIOR BALL Senior Ball HE Senior Ball, given by the Senior Class on February 20, was a success in every way. The gymnasium was decorated to represent a Spanish patio, with palm trees, hanging ferns, shawl draped balconies, and a starlit sky. Dr. and Mrs. H. L. Talkington led the grand march, followed by Owen Knowlton, Senior Class president, and Edith Torkelson. Those in the receiving line were Dr. and Mrs. H. L. Talkington, Miss Grace Morley, Clifford Jacks, Edith Torkelson, Owen Knowlton, and Mr. and Mrs. Loyd Harris. Music was furnished by the Cleveland Orchestra. Tunior IO:-om The Junior Promenade, given on May 1 by the Junior Class, was one of the out- standing social events of the school year. The gymnasium was completely disguised with blossom decorations as a spring garden, and a wealth of fresh lilacs added to the illusion of spring with their sweet odor. The grand march was led by Marian Newman, class president, and Bruce Keith, followed by President and Mrs. Turner. The patrons and patronesses were Miss Carolyn Silverthorne, Mr. Stewart, Mr. and Mrs. Duthie, and Mr. and Mrs. St. John. Special features of the dance program were a Junior dance, a Senior memory dance, and a Queen dance in honor of the May Queen, whose election was announced at the Prom. Ti 91 -GG

H , Society MIXER T THE mixer, which was held at the end of the first week of school, a gala time was had by a great number of farmers and farmerettes. The gymnasium was decorated to represent a barn and everybody appeared in overalls and gingham dresses. Magistrate Don McIntosh arrested Professor Jones early in the evening on a charge of wearing clothes altogether too clean and well-fitting for the occasion. Due to some clever get-acquainted games no one had any trouble getting acquainted. Games were played, and a clever program was enjoyed before the dancing began. Frank Pix and his orchestra furnished the music. ALL-SCHOOL DANCES Each quarter this year there have been at least two all-school dances, in addition to the club formals, the Senior Ball, and the Junior Prom. Clarence Anderson served as social commissioner this year and the success of many of our school parties is due to his efforts. The dances were held in the gymnasium and everybody Went-not dressed up. Dana Cleveland's orchestra furnished the music for most of these dances. OPEN HOUSES Three nights a week there is an open house in one of the campus halls, from seven to eight-thirty. On Tuesday night Lewis Hall holds an open house, to which town and campus boys are invited, Thursday is Talkington Hall's open house, and Friday night is open house at Spalding Hall. The attendance at these open houses has been excellent all year, due to the friendly atmosphere created by the members of the dormitories and on account of the fine brand of music that has been furnished. DEDICATE GIRLS' NEW DORMITORY One of the outstanding social events of the past school year was the dedication of the girls, new dormitory, Talkington Hall, named in honor of Dr. Talkington, Head of the History Department and pioneer of educators in the State of Idaho.
