In the center of the circus ground was a huge sawdust ring. Yari-colored balloons floated around the tent. Around the sides were life-like posters of wild and rare animals, with pennants tacked about at intervals. Kathryn McCoy executed several dancing stunts to the great delight of the audience. Two rollicking clowns, era Cappa and Ida W alls, served pink lemonade with a true circus flavor. Such was the Junior Prom, that pictured the gayest life in the ring that a circus has ever known. The last short flight of the Juniors before they soared past the final milestone in their course, was the Junior Nile at the Calico Cat, May 24. Cireen and white, green and white, everything in the shop was decked in green and white. The Junior aviatrixes in green and white, acted as waitresses. Practically the whole high school turned out to participate in the final triumph of the Junior class. And so the Juniors soared through the last stages of their journey, reading their altimeter now and then. Cp and up they climbed and up and up went the altimeter until it reached its highest point.

There was a clever skit entitled the Sign of the Cleft Heart,” and the assembly ended with a play, “The Clock Shop. One will never forget the beautiful scene at the end of that play. The Juniors all turned out for the assembly clothed in brand new aviators' garb, which were in the form of sweaters, green and white. That night they prolonged their stay to attend the Junior informal dance. And it is enough to say that a good time was had by all.
