Sophomore Hop-College Prom DAME Good Fortune and Saint Patrick were the host and hostess of the Sophomore Hop given March the sixteenth. Good Fortune saw before hand that everyone came, while Saint Patrick welcomed with gusto and good cheer each guest as he arrived. Patches of green shamrocks decorated the walls, and each member of the orchestra donned high hats of bright green. The coy "coleens" joyously jigged with their "Patricks" and although the general tone of the party breathed of "Ould Ourland Movourneen," instead "Two Hearts Beat in Three Four Time" and "It Must Be True," were the lively substitutes. Saint Patrick and Dame Fortune smiled their hearty approval of the emerald affair. COLLEGE PROM Unique in motif, striking in its decorative simplicity, charming in the dignity of its formality, the College Prom stood out as one of the social successes of the year. Very favorable comment was accorded the stately grand promenade which took place early in the evening. The dainty, colorful gowns worn by the young women of the College formed a pleasing contrast to the conventional Tuxedos of the men as the line proceeded down the hall in customary grand march formation. The "Wishing Dance" was an innovation of the evening. This night of April the seventeenth was a lovely night, enchanting and unforgctable. "The Wishing Dance;" Our Malc Quartet; Prom Committee. Drama eyes? ELSIE was aghast. "Can I believe m Everyone is here. Are you ready? Flora and Lee, start quarreling." "Gee, but I hate Sundays." "Keep quiet." "Where were you last night?" "What's it to you?" "Where were you?" "Mind your business." And so began Weber's annual school play, "They All Want Something." In this clever three-act comedy the leading character was a tramp, who, to be near the girl he loved, took advantage of her mother's hobby for reclaiming the souls of tramps. Maurice Berret, as Wade Rawlins, proved a superb gentleman hobo and Flora McKay, as Hilda, the charming object of his love. She was very distant at first when she planned to elope with Herb Wheeller, in reality Charles Chandler, who desired only her money; but of course, she was very gracious later in the play. Richard McKey and Elsie Wheelwright were excellent examples of the newly-rich father and mother, Mr. and Mrs. Kilbourne. Lowell Barker was a riot, as Billy the sixteen-year-old mischievous brother. Lee Valentine as Kane, the tall, handsome, supposedly-bashful brother just younger than Hilda, completed the Kilborune family. Complications were provided by Jeanette Manning who, unlike her usual nature, was Anabelle, "a hard-boiled vamp," and Ben Ban Schaar as Chauncey Smith, the owner of a speakeasy where Mr. Kilbourne spent his "working overtime" hours. Hilda found food for jealousy in the person of Uarda Owens who was Minnie Harlan, a society friend but nevertheless a flirt. Frank Davis, Nita Taggart and Leda Gull added interest and comedy as guests at the masquerade ball. Much of the success of the production was due to Miss Elsie Wheelwright. It was she who selected the play, who arranged for the choosing of the cast by Joe Williams, and who directed the early rehearsals. At this time, however, we were very fortunate in welcoming home Mrs. Bertha Wright who had returned from California. Continuing the splendid beginning of Miss Wheelwright, she directed the final production with her usual recognized ability. Besides the annual drama, the students presented three one-act plays. "Grandpa Pulls the String," was a huge success with Laurel Jones as grandma, Jack Rouse as William Thornton, Blanche Heed as Julia, Arleen Bower as Hildegaarde, Irene Miller as Mrs. Pennington and Bernice Hall as Nona. "Uncle Dick's Mistake," created a great deal of TOP: Left to Right-The Director; The Cast. BOTTOM-They All Want Something; He Gets Something.
