"Judging from the remarks made approv ing the last dance we had 'Mi- side, w;e believe, that the location will help make the ball the big gest success of the year at the Annex.” “Naturally, we want;, as many guests as possible to stay over night and see the Final Review of the Cadet Corps the Saturday morning after the Final Ball,” said Harrison. “Many students will finish their final exams several days early, but we believe that, in order to be here for the Final Re view which starts at 9:80 a.m. Sat urday,) they will want to come back to the Annex Friday evening. Thus, the dance will be appropri ately timed for all students, wheth er they will have gone home after their exams or not.” Tentative time for the dance, Harrison said, will be from 8:30 p.m. until midnight.
