Gwen called the first class meeting, and the rest of the officers, Mark Brown, vice-president, Jack Feinstein, secretary, and Frances Anderson, treasurer, filed in, but no class. Two juniors, Merrian Spearman and Muriel Courshon, ambled by at that moment. Gwen, eyeing them, dragged them into the meeting and put them to work on the committee. A prom was horn! The class began to make strides, and when six or eight meetings had become an historic fact, a date was set. Turmoil, chaos, and confusion set in when the question of entertain-32 • I hi ment came up for a class vote; Gwen, happy that it wasn't rigor mortis, let the class light it out. The visionaries had dreams of a name hand and famous guest stars; what they got was Cy Washburn and Art Laskey's vaudeville show. The prom date was getting uncomfortably close.

Couples began streaming in. and within a half-hour, the prom was a guaranteed success. I he members of the committee looked at each other in wonder and shrugged their shoulders. Slogan for the evening became I'd rather be wrong.'' The dance itself went smoothly. The weather was made to order. Toward the end of the evening. Art's entertainers went to work, and it was then revealed what happened to vaudeville. Dr. J. Maynard Kcecli, one of the faculty sponsors of the dance, was blindfolded and led to the platform, where he was presented with a huge cake as a birthday surprise. In March, Mark Brown took over as president. and Phyllis Maguire became vice-president. The offices of secretary and treasurer remained unchanged. Genevieve Lynch, Carol Lee Turner, and John Harlow were class representatives in the Senate.
