The music for the occasion was well presented by Ihe Me10dyQu1met. Those who enjoy our annual Harvest Ball are the students of our high school and their invited guests, plus many of the alumni. BISHOP'S BALL On the night of January 27th the Bishop's Ball, one of our big annual dances was held in the Moose Hall. Delightful music was presented by Clair Dawson and his orchestra. The dance was attended by many alumni and guests of the students. The gratitude of all the students goes out to the Bishop for a truly enjoyable evening. PROM Anticipating is intense, expectation high when the prom is in the air for it is the most colorful dance of the school year. Of our three big dances the annual prom is the last one - it comes near the end of the year and carries with it, underneath all the joy and gaity, a certain nostalgia and regret that for one group of students, the seniors, it is their last big school social activity. It more or less closes their book of school memories and we hope that it is with a sigh of regret the strains of the last dance echo for along time. The sophomores and freshmen sponsor the prom which is preceded by a junior-sponsored banquet honoring the graduates. The juniors also sponsor the breakfast following the graduation Mass and the evening reception following the graduation exercises, ,J t
