EEEEEEEQE still small, is a monument to the ages. Still another group spent the morning at Herrick Hall preparing for the big rush in that direction about noon. Townspeople may have thought that Pacific University had turned to the circus to raise her campaign money if they had heard the shouting and hilarity on the campus. The old adage, happiest when busiest , proved its truth on this occasion. No idlers were to be found. No one dared be idle for fear the general manager, in his ofhcial looking uniform, might chance upon them. By noon nearly all the leaves were raked together and when the call came come and get it no idlers were to be found. A long line of hungry tramps, of all nationalities, immigrants, spinsters, and even gentlemen in evening dress filed up to the Herrick Hall porch where they were served buns. meat, pickles, potato salad, gravy, coffee and ice cream. - When at last the hunger had been appeased, the truck committee returned to its work, andthe loggers and lumbermen with their fair assistants returned to the old fallen oak. This oak had become so ancient that it was found necessary to remove it, lest it damage its fellow trees. Freshman Bench Remembering the number of times they had been compelled to leave the Senior bench by order of the Vigilance Committee the Freshmen conceived the idea of a bench all their own, so with saws and axes the Rooks soon moulded a rustic settee from the trunk of the old oak. Incidentally some candidate loggers were found among the girls who took their turns at the end of a cross- cut saw and proved their ability in bench manufacturing. ' Thus ended the annual f'clean-up , but the day was not done until the Sophomores carried away the field day honors in the intra-mural track contest, with a total of eighty-four points. The Freshmen received second place with forty-six points. - .

ra Qgggaaezaazaaaz HEART OF OAK '24 afesaezaaaatazgggg C55 955. C53 952 2 3 gg Dances ggi KS EY E OMF Coming dance, which was given in honor of Pacific University Q Q Alumni, was held in the gymnasium. Evergreen boughs and ivy were Q H arranged very effectively about the gymnasium for this affair. The Q Q boughs were also arranged along the walls so that the dancers were enclosed Q E within the Walls of green embankment. Boughs gracefully hung from the H E edge of the balcony, while ivy was naturally twined from the lights, and thus Q E the dim glow of twilight fell over the dancers. Beneath a bower of green E E boughs a charming maid presided at the punch bowl. This spot proved to H E be the most popular for everyone between dances. About eighty couples E E danced the hours away from eight ofclock until the orchestra played Home, E E Sweet Home at eleven-thirty. Patrons and patronesses for this affair were: E H President and Mrs. W. C. Weir, Dean Mary Farnham, Dean Henry Bates, Q and Coach and Mrs. L. J. Frank. gi E Student body dances, both formal and. informal, have held a large place E in the social affairs of the University this year. The first dance of the season E was held late in September in honor of the Freshmen. The gymnasium was E E transformed into an autumn forest with its many hues and shades. With a E E five-piece orchestra furnishing the music, many couples danced the evening E hours away too soon. ' The second dance, worthy of note, was the one given by the American E Legion of Washington County on the evening of November eleventh. Several E E hundred people thronged to the gymnasium for an evening of dancing, and E Q never before had the building been so crowded for an affair of this kind. E H American flags, banners and war trophies were arranged about the gymnasium. E E From the ceiling hung an immense flag beside a Legion banner. E E El Q In addition to all other student dances, the last one of the year is expected Q Q to be one of the most successful. -It will be held under the auspices of the Q E Crimson Lettermen's Club on May 19th. The dance given by the Crimson Q Q Club is an annual May festivity affair. Arrangements for this dance are E H being made, and the club expects to make this one of the most successful H dances. . - E 3 C55 E5 3 3 E 3 E ED One hundred filly-four H 1 S M an EEgazevueaazaeeggzaeeezaaaazaeaazaecacaeezaezazeaeuazaeaagQE
