l'0I'l'l All ioin hands and circle left, Do-si-do, Swing that pretty little girl and Promenade home were some of the calls at the l-larvest Dance. The theme was an old- fashioned square dance, and the lobb was decorated with pumpkins, corn stalks, and autumn Keaves suspended from the ceiling. Gals and guys promenaded to the music ot Dwight Moody and the Smoky Mountain Boys. The dance, which was sponsored by the Senior Class, was a success according to the many red-faced and laughing participants. Oh, my aching feet, was the moan at one of Southern's sock-hops, which was held in the lobby this year. Following the home football games, the News- paper staff sponsored sock-hops in the lobby for Rebs and the visiting teams. FRESHMAN-SOPHOMORE ln the spring a young man's fancy... Such was the atmosphere of the Freshman- Sophomore Prom. The dance was climaxed by a shower of flower petals which fluttered down on the dancers. The balloons which were burst, hung from the center of the ceiling filled with snowball petals. Pastel swags of crepe paper, draped from light to light, com- pleted the decorations. The dance was semi- formal, and the Sophomore: were admitted free.
