Tuesday night fob- lowing the basketball ' ga|ne. Al though many of the men were ex hausted after their strenuous efforts iff the irame, the lively music furnish ed by the College Band soon revived them and gavf spirit to everyone present. Following the general introduction the entertain mem committee -under the leadership of Boren and Smith started a number #f games which caused considerable excitement among both the contestants and onlookers. In the marshmallow eating contest Jack McManus so carefully judged the eating ef hie side of the marsh mallow that he almost succeeded in arriving at the string at the same time as his opponent, Mias Mary James. Archie Wayland also used some great headwork in the same contest. He kept getting lower and lower as the marshmallow disappear- of many moons of Sbisa's chow. The bspc upon being opened revealed a tasty collection of the moat luscious dates prepared, as each one allowed, to please his individual taste. And cake, to try to find a suitable adjec tive would involve much speculation and selection so suffice it to say that it was the kind that only mother knyw how to hake. And since we are tae recipients of such manifestations on 0. I. A.’s part it behooves us to heart ily indorse the statement so recently made by the Battalion, that the Sweetest Girls are the girls who so pleasantly remember us with such boxes of luscious eats. Mr. Mayo was Toast-master (pro tem) and a jolly life he lead us. It almost brought back the spirit of the wbolr trip but one thfhg was lacking and they sent their silent represen tative. It was an expressioh at cuM- nary art carried to perfection. And were wd to attempt, a manifestation of our appreciation it would Involve ml, in order that the string would fall »****€. I. A.- for no one would try to express his appreciation in mere words into his possession, bat! his partner Miss Willie May Lollard anticipated bis tactics so th^t the end ef the game found each opponent on the floor and the contest was called a draw. The ribbon contest was won by Frits Mgrray as he aadTiis "partner showed the greatest skill in catting a straight line without injuring the side of the ribbon. In the apple contest the girls wrists were tied and they were then blind folded and told to take the apple off of their parser’s head and replace it. This resulted in many close fin ishes as everyone worked hard to win. Miss James was the winner due to the cooperation of her assistant, Mr. Wayland. •* \ r y Refreshments were sgrved towards the close of the -veainjr. About •evenly were present. Mrs. Kyle was chape.one for Ute occasion and with the able assistance of Mias Kyi* and Dean Kyle saw to R that everyone thoroughly enjoyed the evening.
