Show Coronation of the Queen of the Acorn June Andrew, Queen Phyllis Mayer Lois Ensign Phyllis Brown Barbara Foulger ACORN BALL The Acorn Ball has, for years, been the most outstanding dance of the year. The staff, in past years, went to a good deal of expense in sponsoring the ball. It was revived last year, and this dance made a close approach to the old precedent. The simplicity of the decorations emphasized the dignity of the occasion. The coronation ceremony was one of beautiful pageantry-ten girls, members of Aglaia, waltzed the mood of the audience into one of appreciative acceptance. When the Queen was announced everything was in perfect harmony. She was preceded by a trumpeter and two little flower girls. Her attendants, Miss Phyllis Brown, Miss Lois Ensign, Miss Barbara Foulger, and Miss Phyllis Mayer carried the crown to the throne; here Lester Richardson, Student Body President, crowned Miss June Andrew Queen of the Acorn. Other dances, not mentioned in this section, were sponsored by various organizations. Private dances and those conducted after the book went to press have not been recorded. In enumerating a few of the public dances, we list the Sophomore Hop, Weber College Prom, Commencement Dance and the Distribution Dance. STARLIGHT CRUISE Drifting away on a "Formal Starlight Cruise" the girls of Weber College invited their partners to enjoy with the Winter Quarter Girls' Dance. Stars dropping from the ceiling and waves rippling around the hall called for the large S. S. Coed cruise boat, full masted in the center of the floor. FALL QUARTER GIRLS' DANCE Dignified as the Puritan, the girls of Weber College gave the Thanksgiving Dance. Fashioned in a Thanksgiving atmosphere, the orchestra played from a pumpkin and stately Puritan figures were centered in each window. CONEY ISLAND CARNIVAL "Soda pop, fudges, fortune tellers, noisemakers, and confetti!" No more could have been expected at a stag "Coney Island Carnival." With the orchestra stand a merry-go-round and booth-keepers calling forth their wares, the students enjoyed one of the most unusual dances of the year. The dance was sponsored by Whip Club.
