Saturday night, October fifth, the out- door gym was transformed into a real country barn. Much hay, many corn stalks, signs that might be found on coun- try roads, cotton dresses, pigtails, overalls, were all there, and straw hats bobbed to the strains of “Oh! Susanna and “The Beer Barrel Polka. Next door in the Field House were apples, cider and ginger- snaps for alh Much excitement arose over the invita- tions sent out for the March first tea dance and formal prom. On the day, hand- some young men gathered from far and near at the Field House where a gay after- noon ended with a buffet supper for the guests. In the evening, in the main dining- room all dressed up like South America, more or less the same young men, in white- tie-and -tails, danced more or less the same charming girls around the floor in a whirl of laughter and fun. There is still a big Spring prom to come.
