--'-if ll' ll 4' C cz F? Presidevzfs Reception FRIDAY NICTHT, the fourteenth of September, the hrst social event of the year was held in our new Auditorium-Gymnasium. On that night the Auditorium was full of old and new students and friends of the school, and that they were getting acquainted was shown by the way they joined in the spirit of the affair. The program was begun by all singing the school song. Then followed speeches. Among them was an address of welcome to the new students hy our Student Body President, Loyson'Burnett. Joe Faley, a new student, gave the response and told how the new students would certainly cooperate to make this year a grand success. Fol- lowing this Mr. Benner, our new violin instructor, gave us several 'selections on his violin. Then, as this wm'the twenty-fifth year since the founding of the school, we were shown some pictures of what it was like in its earlier years. It was revealed to our doubting minds that the offices of'the dean and the bookkeeper were once actually the 'living rooms of the President. We also saw what our President, Vice President, and Dean looked like when they were little fellows. The pictures ended all too soon but we didn't mind very much, for refreshments suddenly appeared on the scene. But all fine times come to an end, and that is just what happened to this one. And although I know 'my English professor wouldn't approve, I feel like summing it all up in these words: A good time was had by all. -J. VOGET. The I-lame Coming HOME comms week has been one of the greatest events in the history of the school. A snappy program of events was carefully mapped out by the executive committee of the Alumni Association. Former schoolmates were here, class reunions were held, old friendships were renewed and happy acquaintances made with younger members of the Alumni Association. Such an occasion may not reoccur for at least twenty-five years. Each program was a success and as we visited here and there, our thoughts wandered back to the good old days once spent in these memorable halls. The fatted calf was surely on the platter on the evening of June first, and former students, teachers, trustees, and alumni of the Old Sem had a most delightful get- together. The Alumni Association is heartily interested in its Alma lllater, and is greatly rejoiced at the progress she is making. -M. Coizssa. Page Fifty-eight
