The 1950 Ai Home One of the Tillsonburg District High School's most successful dances was held in the gymnasium on Friday evening, Feb- ruary l7th. The Hop, as it is frequently called, was under the supervision of Miss Vicki Vance, our Social Vice-President. Vicki had remarked earlier in the year that since this was to be our last year in the old school, she hoped her Hop would be one of the finest and most memorable. Your expectations were not in vain, Miss Vance, for it really was a 'hum-dingerf On entering the beautifully decorated gymnasium, we were warmly received by Vicki, Vivian Thompson, the President of the Literary Society, Mr. and Mrs. Kirk- wood, and Mr. Vallee, Chairman of the Till- sonburg District High School Board, with Mrs. Vallee. ' After Richard jones had most cordially given them their dance cards, the Cinder- ellas of the evening were guided around the ballroom by their Prince Charmings in time with the wonderful music of Bobby Downs' Orchestra. , We looked at the beautiful white, pink and blue streamers and balloons, the an- gelic figures and the clouds of spun glass that were floating about us. But, lo and be- hold, as we glided past the middle of the floor, the picture changed entirely. All sorts of vile monsters and devils were star- ing at us, and balloons and streamers of red, yellow and black were hanging above our heads. VVell-to sum it all up, the gym was most cleverly decorated to resemble Hades and Heaven. After the Grand March, the girls looked at their dance cards, artistically designed by Edith Moon. On the front was drawn a gold harp and caught among the strings was a black devil. The spot dances of the evening were won by Shirley jones and Bill Popham and Betty Burn and George Gyulveszi. The winners were chosen by Vicki and her escort, Bob Scott. jerry Mansfield took ,pictures of some of the students and teachers to put in the Tatler. As one o'clock approached, everyone sighed to think the evening had gone so fast. Then Bobby Downs played his theme song. After the dance, everyone agreed that a wonderful time was had by all. Thank 32 you, Vicki, for a memorable At Home ! Special thanks go to the various commit- tees who assisted Vicki in the dance prepar- ations. Miss Helen Pettifer, the Secretary of the Literary Society was responsible for hiring Mr. Downs and sending out the invi- tations. Many thanks to Mr. Alexander who looked after the refreshments. The art and decorating committees con- sisted of Dorothy Helsdon, Jane McQueen, Lois Law, Gloria Haycock, Bonnie Moore, Dalton Murr, Shirley Eichenberg, Bob Scott, lrluzz Palmer, Dick Peacock, Richard jones, Edith Moon, Mr. Taylor and many others.
