THE HALLOWE ' EN PARTY ON Friday evening, October the twenty-sixth, at eight o ' clock, the Trafalgar gym was transformed into a den of weird and fascinating creatures. Yes, the annual Sixth Form Hallowe ' en party had begvm. These hostesses were on hand to greet their guests, who were the boarders and their friends. When all were assembled, the music began to play and the grand march paraded before the judges. There were animals and witches, old-fashioned girls and ballerinas, school-girls then and now, the Mad Hatter ' s tea-party, and football, hockey and baseball players. After a great deal of difficulty in deciding, Miss Foster awarded the prizes for the best costumes to Miss Cam and Jane Bancroft, an owl and a penguin respectively. Then followed an interval of square-dancing to some hill-billy tunes before the main event of the evening, the Sixth Form show. This opened with a delightful poem, written by Sylvia Dennis and recited by the entire class. It told of the trials and tribulations of school life, but confessed to the boarders that it was fun after all. Next a very convincing Al Jolson, in the person of Greta Straessle, serenaded us with You made me love you. In closing, Anne Cadman and Sheila Archibald reminded us of the roaring twenties with their version of the Charleston, danced to the lilting melody of Five Foot Two: Eyes of Blue . After all this excitement, refreshments were served, and the evening wound up with dancing to songs from the Broadway musical Annie Get Your Gun . The Sixth Form indeed deserved congratulations for a wonderful party. Anne Cadman, Arts VI, Ross House. THE GRADUATION DANCE BEFORE Christmas vacation the Sixth forms met to begin plans for the dance to be held on the nineteenth of January. Heads of dilferent committees were chosen and ideas began pouring in. This looked like fun. But it hung heavy over our heads during the Holidays, and on Wednesday, the third of January, Sylver invited us all over to her house for the evening to discuss matters which had become more vital with time. Thanks to Bev and Mr. Harris we had tivo-hundred and fifty beautiful tickets. The only worry we had then was to sell them — Racey and Bev took on this responsibility. After much thought as to decorations, the theme Winter Wonderland was chosen. Sue had fancy ideas about a snowflake, but Eaton ' s Mr. Boon came to the rescue with various winterv articles from the display department. A tremerulous boon. Sue R., Anne Berry, and Sylver nearly went mad trying to settle many orchestra problems. We were very happy with their choice — the Keynotes. Thursday arrived with much work to be done. A crew stayed and wove crepe paper, while others went to Anita ' s, head of the food committee, where business was cleverly combined with pleasure. The result? Excellent sandwiches. [29j
