WAt Homen QShirley Vance? The gymnasium was effectively decorated on Friday, February 29 for the colourful event of the fourth annual WAt Homeu. The difficult task of decorating the huge and barren gymnasium was accomplished under the excellent direction of Kay Aldred who was assisted by members of the Athletic and Literery Societies. Pastel shades of pink and green streamers and umbrellas holding various coloured balloons hung from the ceiling. The basketball baskets resembled green flower pots containing spring flowers. Two trell- ises of pink paper shading the spot lights provided sufficient light for the evening. The delicate shades of the dresses and the sweet scents of the flowers worn by the girls blended perfectly with the spring atmosphere of the room. The reception committee, which consisted of Mr. and Mrs. MacFarlane, Mr. and Mrs. Crane, Georgia Brock and Peter Sulman, stood at the door. Directly behind them an old couple, constructed from old clothes, sat in front of a fireplace to help portray the pleasant atmosphere of UHomeN The WSenenairesN of Peterborough provided excellent music for the evening. To make-the event complete a tasty lunch was served at intermission. The fourth annual NAT HOMEW proved to be a success and we think everyone really enjoyed the evening. WTHE CHRISTMAS DANCEW CJean Samellsl The Christmas Dance, sponsored by the Literary Society, was held on Friday evening, December twenty- first, in the high school gymnasium, The scenery lloaned by the Port Perry United Church! included a huge sleigh in which the orchestra seemed to be sit- ting and a winter scene which was placed along the west wall. The gymnasium was beautifully decorated with white and blue streamers which made a perfect setting for the Wwinter Wonderland Dancen. Everyone enjoyed dancing to the music of W.W. Bates Orchestra. Even though the weat- her was blustery, the dance was well attended. f ' If K ff fggjx xx
