Senior Dinner Dance The social season of the Senior class opened ollicially Saturday evening, April 18 with an informal dinner dance at the Detroit Yacht Club. Over thirty couples were present. The table was artistically decorated with the college colors predominating. The ladies were presented with silver bracelets and the men with pocket match holders with the college seal on the front. , Dancing during and after the dinner was enjoyed by the entire class. Follow- inff the dinner was a short roffram, Donald S. Leonard, our class resident, Cv p e P being the principal speaker. The committee in charge was made up of Robert Ross, chairman, assisted hy Lucille Lang and Evelyn Dlc Elveen. J. Hop Few who attended this year's Hop, given by the class of '26, will forget that affair. Those who remember it for nothing else will think of it as being the first real college dance ever held outside of the school gymnasium. The Alasonic Country Club certainly did much to further the eriioyment of the dance and the light-colored dresses of the girls contrasting with the dark suits of the men formed a beautiful picture as they danced amid the changing colors of the flood- lights. Applications were reserved to upper classmen and the total number was limited to seventy-tive, giving plenty of space for dancing. A special feature was the reception committee, giving the dance quite a formal atmosphere. Another feature was the Grand Alarch led by Bliss illaylvelle Christiansen and Ted English, president of the class, after which the favors were presented, novel boutonnieres of real flowers. The dancing lasted from nine to one, the Alasonic County Club Qrchestra furnishing the music and freely living up to its reputation. Certainly when the dance ended everyone was conscious only that they had had a wonderful time and that certainly the I Hop would never be forgotten. The fact that the dance was so great a success was due largely to the committees. Helen Thompson was general chairman and performed her work exceedingly well. She was assisted by the class social committee. consisting of Yvendell Chick, Ray Perring, True Pettingill, and Leonard Harding. Ted English took care of the reception committee and Vesta Sweitzer the invitations. Certainly the Iunior class is to be congratulated on its success. 1 J' h 1 I 1 105 I N ,F 1.Ps. i 'ix Y 17.7 i.. .

The scintillating flash lanterns playing their rays over the swaying couples dancing to the lilting music of Tige Iewett's Collegians gave the spirit in keeping with the new spring season. Between the third and fourth dances the orchestra played the Green and Gold while the ensemhlage stood silent. This was to bid Bon Voyage the eight track men, seven of whom were sophomores, who were on their way to competein the Ohio Relays. The work of the general committee who secured an outside ballroom, and raised the necessary funds is appreciated by the sophomore class and by the college. The general chairman who organized the committee was unable to attend the Prom lwecause he was one of the eight athletes enroute to The Relays. General Committee: Chairman .
