Show ACORN BALL Miss Bernice Criddle Maid of Honor Miss Dorothy Dixon Queen Miss Helen Abbott Miss Josephine Stone Miss Babs Clark Miss Jane Nickson Out of the pages of the yearbook stepped the Queen of the Acorn Ball, Miss Dorothy Dixon, attended by Miss Bernice Criddle, Maid of Honor, and Miss Helen Abbott, Miss Babs Clark, Miss Jane Nickson, and Miss Josephine Stone, attendants. Reproducing in a unique manner the volume itself, with title pages featured in the windows of the ballroom, the Acorn again became the motive of the decorations. JACK FROST FROLIC The series of quarterly dances sponsored by the Associated Women Students was successfully inaugurated in the autumn quarter by the Jack Frost Frolic. Little figures of Jack Frost were busily engaged in painting myriad colored leaves on the window panes. The atmosphere of nipped noses was created by falling snow and the arctic colors of blue and white surrounding the orchestra. One hundred and fifty couples kept their toes from being frost-bitten by following the nimble music of the orchestra. TRAFFIC DANCE The traffic dance idea was used to advantage by the student body and an "On to Denver" Dance resulted. The dance was relinquished to the student body in an effort to raise money to send the champion basketball team to Denver to participate in the A. A. U. tournament. |
