ON THE SPOT : SENIOR DANCE The Senior Class, noted for its praiseworthy generosity and good na- ture, conducted a private dance, the first of its kind this year, at the George Washington Auditorium on January 25. Music was furnished by Ralph Weck- strom’s Orchestra. The patrons and patronesses were Mr. and Mrs. King and Mr. and Mrs. Sawyer. Refreshments were served in the gym and novelties were later distributed. The orderly manner in which the dance was conducted and the marvelous time had by all just proves once again the great ability of the Senior Class, led by their advisor, Miss Wilson, in the matter of social activities. SCREECH OWL DANCE The Screech Owl, Maynard High School’s illustrious magazine, made its contribution to the social life of the school with a private dance on February 15. The dance was handled by a capable committee under the direction of the Screech Owl adviser, Miss Field. The patrons and patronesses were Mr. and Mrs. King and Mr. and Mrs. Sawyer. Refreshments were served during intermission and novelties were distributed. The dance was well at- tended there being about eighty-five couples, including members of the faculty and their guests. Although the dance was put on by the Screech Owl, the screeching was confined to the blowing of noise makers during the novelty dance, and again the students showed their approval of the couple plan, introduced at the Senior Dance. Rythmic music was furnished by Ralph Weckstrom’s Orchestra. SOIREE A soiree was given by the Senior French class under the direction of Miss Wilson, Maynard High’s French teach- er. In the program for the evening there were two plays. If the French hadn’t afterwards been translated into English by the casts I’m afraid the Freshmen, Sophomores and possibly a few Junior French students wouldn’t know now what the plot was all about. After the plays, games were enjoyed and refreshments were served in the gym. The soiree was attended by the majority of the French students and by many teachers.
