SPHIN In a beautiful setting of a May Garden with a white picket fence, huge baskets of spring flowers, green foliage, and dainty spring forinals, M. C. acclaimed the Spring Prom Queen of 1942. The six basketball goals around the gymnasium floor were changed into holders for huge bouquets. The balcony was banked on each end with masses of green foliage and ferns. For the queens throne, a minia- ture garden was created in one end of the gymnasium directly opposite the orchestra. This garden, sur- rounded with a white picket fence, was fairly blossoiningi' with real flowers. just in back of the throne was a May Pole with delicate pas- tel strealners. The candidates entered one by one until the ewhole garden was filled with sixteen of M. J. C.'s most vivacious co-eds. They left the gar- den and walked the length of the floor, so as to allow a trio delegat- ed froni the orchestra to judge to whom the honor should goq . A few niinutes of suspense and the class attendants began to enter. They were Misses Dottie Wilsoii, Maxine Briscoe, -Tune Brockway, and Betty Ann Richey. The class presidents stepped from the audi- w-... EPHHM ROSA LU ABT p ence and entered the garden with the attendants. A Finally the Queen of the 1942 Spring Prom entered-Miss Rosa Lu Abt. Stanley Isle, student body president, presented Miss Abt with her flowers and crowned her Queen of the festivity. Her attendants were given wrist corsages. As tradition has it, the queen and her attendants started the next dance with the rest of the on-look- ers joining until once more the au- ditoriuin was filled with dancers. SIXTY -FIVE b

MHJHEH lst row: Stringer, Baker, Spohrer, Fitzsimrnons, Gasparotti. 2nd row: Gasparotti, Rector, Spurling, Brockway, Valelly, Butts. 3rd row: Marshall, Jacobs, Briscoe, Hirst. Hey Kids, this book has been tailored especially for you. If it doesn't fit we are very sorry C011 yeah! We got their money alreadyl. Wlieii we started planning this book early in the fall we thought that we might show the similarity between an Army unit and M. J. C. This plan hopped a fast freight and departed for parts unknown early in the book we think. At least its gone and it took our handcuffs and leg irons with it fb0Y did We have it tied up.J Anyhow here is how our com- parison went: First, the Regimental staff. Our faculty compares with the army of- ficers two ways: they are respon- sible for planning our campaigns and training us for them-. Second, the Draftees. The student body compares with the actual draftees in that both are planning on defeating the Axis. Third, Athletics. Physical train- ing at M. J. C. is not as rigorous as in the Army but has the same purpose. building stronger people. Fourth and last, Social activities. Gur. Army has dances for purposes of entertaining the soldiers the same as our dances entertain us. We hope you like the 1942-43 Mojuco. SIXTY-SEVEN
