Show The College Prom RESPLENDENCE and individuality in every detail marked the annual college promenade, one of the foremost parties of the year. The beautiful Berthana ball room, as a setting, was reminiscent of gracious simplicity. Tall ferns and palms, placed about the hall and in the Blue room, created a most delightful background for the dancers. The feature of the evening was the grand march led by Elmer Neilson and his partner. The procession weaved itself into a gigantic "W, at which time, two tiny girls distributed dance programs, distinctive in their simplicity. From then until the strains of "Auf Weidersein" had faded into memory, the dancers were in a new and fascinating sphere, and as the waltz echoed through the hall, they more fully realized the true significance of the Purple and White. This College extends compliments to the Freshmen class which sponsored the party, to the committee-Gay Taylor Winkler, Mable Reynolds, Kathleen O'Connor, Wallace Jones, and William Stratford-and to Miss Lucille Owen who directed the promenade. The Faculty Reception PRESIDENT Tracy, in coordination with members of the college Faculty, formally welcomed the students of Weber and made acquaintence with its patrons at the fourth annual Faculty reception held September 25, 1926. In all respects this incipient social event of the 1926- 27 season artistically and beautifully demonstrated the classic, individual, and purposeful standards maintained by this Junior College, and served as an admirable criterion for social events to follow. President's Reception INSTITUTING an annual banquet and ball exceeding all others in beauty, simplicity, and artistry, the President's reception to the graduates will be held May 27 at the Bigelow Hotel. That the students may leave their Alma Mater with one noble last impression wherein Weber's dreams are visibly portrayed resultant in the material from courage, resourcefulness, and initiative, is the sincere desire of those under whose direction this farewell ball is given. |
