The various responsibilities of the class are divided among committees which work in an harmonious endeavor to maintain a smooth-running whole. In addition to the repre- sentatives of the group in the Dress and Social Service Committees, the class is in charge of the duties of traffic regulations which are handled through a committee under the direction of Mrs. Randleman. I-Iomeroom functions and problems are taken care of by the College Class as a unit. Besides these business meetings, which are held at least once a month, the class convenes once a month for a social meeting which the Social and Program Committees plan. Often refreshments are served by the Refreshment Committee. Sometimes games are played and frequently a program is witnessed. The College Class opened its social year with a Cabaret Party on November nineteenth, which was given for the two-fold purpose of furnishing enjoyment for the students and increasing the class treasury. Under the dim lights and canopied windows the patrons of the gym disguised as a cabaret enjoyed a snappy program of dancing and singing as they sipped pop and conversed across the checkered tablecloths which covered the small tables. The program consisted of a tap dance by Cecile Kohner, dressed as a waiter, she was accompanied by jean Howardg Rebecca Albert and Grace Andrews gave an amusing skit called 'lRomeo and Juliet, brought quite up-to-dateg Edith Rode sang QContinued o-n Page 201 Eighteen

COLLEGE ACTIVITIES QContinued from Page 18j two solosg Lucerne Toler played a piano selection, Miss Georgia Cole and Miss Helen Maddock gave a feature exhibition dance. After the grand march, Miss Maddock and Miss Cole, and Gipsey Wynekoop and Kay Wade were awarded prizes for being the handsomest couples on the floor. An orchestra furnished music to which the guests danced until the cabaret doors were closed. To promote a spirit of friendliness throughout the group, the class had a week of fun and mystery known as Heart and Arrow Week. At a business meeting during the first week of February, each girl drew a heart which bore the name of some fellow student to whom the drawer must give gifts or write notes. Everyone joined in with great enthusiasm to make the week a success. On the following Friday, February twelfth, a party was held at Miss Gaiford's home where the mysteries of Hearts and Arrows were solved and each one received a final gift. In keeping with the spirit of Valentine Day, the game of hearts was played and refreshments of heart-shaped cookies and candies were served. Thursday afternoon, April fourteenth, marked the date of the Annual Mothers' Tea. A musical program was witnessed by the generous attendance of mothers, faculty mem- bers, and college girls. Dainty refreshments were served and an enjoyable afternoon was spent in getting acquainted with the mothers. Instead of sponsoring the annual Garden Party, the College Class devoted all its energy to the success of the Prom, which became a responsibility of the school rather than merely of the Senior Class. Several of the College girls have won general acclaim for their participation in school activities where they have been outstnading. Lucerne Toler and Elnora Loomis had the leads in The Maker of Dreams. Elnora has taken an active part in dramatics as have Aletha and Ruth Eggert, and Cecile Kohner. Cecile won the finals in the tennis tourna- ment. Lillian Bachofen and Donna Dickey were on the College-Junior basketball team. Lillian was also the winner of the intermediate tennis tournament, and played on the hockey team. Jeanette Friesem and Lillian Bachofen were among the best riders, and Doris Frost played tennis, golf, and basketball. Jane Gilbert was the golf instructor this year. All in all, the College girls were actively interested in sports. They were also well represented in the various service and social clubs, student council, and in many other ways showed their school interest. Jane Gilbert was elected president of the boarding department and Elnora Loomis was vice-president. Elnora was also vice-president of the Aberdeen Society. Jane Gilbert and Lillian Bachofen were selected to be student directors of one-act plays in the boarding department. Jeanette Friesem, Marion Heck and Lillian Bachofen were in the principal play of the Dramatic Club of the boarding department, The Valiant. The month of june terminates the season of busy school activities in which the College Class has taken an active part in an endeavor to make the year a success in sports, scholastic standings, and social functions.
