drunks. VVhite ties and tails. The skirts are very full, very colorful. very swishg the waltzes most popular. Scents utterly feminine: sandalwood, musk, honeysuckle, pink clover. Mark Rainsford around with that camera. Frightening people with that flash bulb. Corsages. The faculty: at first, very correct, very graciousg later, very playful, very friendly. A certain well- known deb a colossal flop. And a financial success. Hurray for Mac. After the dance . . . everyone leaving. Much honking of horns. Repeated good nights. The slamming of ear doors. Roar- ing motors. General disorder. Then quiet descends upon the club. But elsewhere is gaiety still. College girls and college boys out on a spree. VVe won't be home until lwy. lemme in morning. Sitting in diners!-eating. Sitting in automobiles or on porch steps-talking, even in the chilly air. The pungent odor of dying Howers. Do kisses count? Or are they all part of the game?

Then those frat dances: girls, boys-all packed into overcrowded roomsg three or four people trying to sit in tl1e same chairg four or five trying to stand on the same spotg fifty trying to use the same ash tray. lrove in bloom.
