1 K : NP ev OD The Goblins Gathering heralded in the merry doings of the school year by putting Halloween on D.T.C.'s social calendar. Sponsored by the A.A., the dance will ne'er be forgotten. Frolic and fun was the pass-word as the Rhythm Rangers set the mood for square and round dancing among pumpkins and cornstalks and around the witch's brew. Curley Hall was gaily decorated with spooky pictures, signs, and colored streamers. Strings of apples and doughnuts were hung from the ceiling and were obtained without the use of the hands. The traditional ducking for apples was also enjoyed. The only reason for leaving the floor was to partake of the refreshments of cider and doughnuts which really hit the spot. The climax of the evening was the formation of the grand march in which were seen the Egyptians, old fashioned lads, Wee Willie Winkle, Drum Major, representatives of Dr. Donnelly's Physical Education Theory class, cowboys, cowgirls and others. The perplexed and bewildered judges, Miss Gertrude Braun, Mr. james Timmins, and Mr. Adam Aitcheson, finally came up with the winners-Connie Gillotti and Estella Gillotti, prettiest, Carolyn Koster and jean Miller, most original, and Harvey Jessup, funniest. ff' fl aa 3 m J xi'ffftY5 E7 F A-ifwm
