our -rwfw ' H ' ' THE JULIET With what coin the drive and fund left in our possession, We satished the urge for entertainment. The Juliet, with its air conditioning, its indirect lighting, and, above all, its Wonderful proximity, was our vveekf night favorite.

In October and November our own entertainers provided free added atf tractions. The juniors' party for the freshmen gave us all an uproarious lair with fascinating booths, and crowned the evening with that masterful mellerf drammer, 'LThe Drunkard's Reform . Soph Party outdid itself in caricaturing life at Vassar as a freshman first meets it. The members ot' the audience relived the dawn of their own experience at Vassar, viewing syrnpaf thetically the struggle of' Phoebe the Freshman, her tribulations with angel robes at the gymnasium, with scales at the doctor's ofhce, and with the card catalogue at the library.

We knew we belonged and we decided to become active, to build a set, collect some props, or maybe swing spotlights for its next performance.
