Kanza Ball First Attenclmtt MISS SALLY ALLYN Second Attendant MISS HELEN CURRY The best in yearsf' was the comment made by many after the 1955 Kanza Ball faded into the past. Ralph Flanagan supplied the entertainment to a capacity crowd of approximately one thousand students, alumni, and friends of the College. I-Iun- dreds of musical notes trimmed in glitter and a glowing gold-rope-trimmed stairway created the at- mosphere of Modern Moods in the Student Center. VVi1liam Adrian, Fashion designer and model- ing school head of Pasadena, Calif., selected the queen and her attendants. Miss Barbara Bushnell, a freshman from Fleming, representing Epsilon Pi Tau, honorary industrial arts fraternity, was crowned queen. l-'ler escort for the evening was jim Dunlap. Queen Barbara's attendants were: Sally Allyn of Pittsburg, first attendant, and Miss Helen Curry of Dodge City, second attendant. Miss Allyn, a junior sponsored by the Press Club, was escorted by Robert Edmistong Miss Curry, sen- ior representing the physical education majors and minors, was escorted by Don McWirt. Lee Thomison, 1955 Kanza editor, crowned the queen, presenting her and the attendants with their trophies. jim Sherman, standing in for Bill De- vine, Student Council president, announced the twenty-three queen candidates and their escorts as they made their entrance into the Ballroom. Movies of the event were taken for publicity use, recreating the coronation, Carol Patterson and Carolyn Creighton re- ceived honorable mention from Adrian. Miss Pat- terson, his fourth choice, is a sophomore and rep- resented the YWCA. Miss Creighton, freshman sponsored by the Lang and Lit Club, was his fifth selection. A net profit of S300 went into the yearbook fund as, for the first time in several years, the Kanza Ball did not end in the red. As in a majority of the past years, the Ball was handled by the Kanza Staff. In 1953 and '54 it was jointly spon- sored by the staff and the Student Council, but it remains as an activity of the Board of Publications. Assistant Editor jim Dellinger, who was ap- pointed Kanza Ball chairman by the editor, ac- complished the utmost in decorations with a great deal of time and effort on his part and the part of his committee. Emma Kay Palango and Barbara Baenisch were in charge of the coronation, queens, and trophies. Dodie Smith and Vicki Smith worked on the decoration plans. Also assisting the com- mittee was Sally Steward, staff artist, who drew up many advertisement posters and aided with the decorations.
