Two traditional highlights of the school year, final ball
and final review, have been planned for June T and 4. re
spectively.
The final ball, last event of the spring social season, will
be held this year in the Grove. The Aggieland Orchestra
-♦will play for the event.
1 The GrOve will be furnished with
tables and chairs—nightclub style.
The dance will last from 9 to 12.
Final review will be held Juno
4, with the ceremonies beginning
at 4:15 on the ipain drill field west
of Goodwin Hall.
For the review, the Cadet Corps
will form on the drill field and
pass in review once, after which it
will return to original formation.
Seniors then say goodbye, to the
men in their outfits and fall out
of ranks, after which the juniors
take comluand of the corps.
All the seniors come forward
and foirnj one long line opposite
the corps! which then passes in re
view again for the seniors. Each
company executes “eyes right” for
its group of seniors. During this
review the band plays "Auld.Lang
Syne” as a march.
Finail review in bygone days, ac
cording to P. L. “Pinky” Downs,
was the occasion for the gathering
of almost as many people on the
campuisi iis now come to see a con-
ferencO football game. People circ
led the drill field, which was in the
same plate as it is now, and some
times listood as much as ten deep,
