Huntington Lake treasurer hunt which misled many eager women all over the campus and even off the campus, while the treasure was tucked under the arm of a far-seeing girl—she skipped her clues. A wienie-roast on the beach of college cove was another A. W. S. attraction. Aside from too much to eat there were all sorts of games, novel games which caused a great deal of amusement to both the participants and the on-lookers. The third outstanding social event of the season was the tea-dancant given in the social hall, which had been completely transformed for the occasion. From a rustic mountainfied hall it changed within the course of a few hours into a spring garden, with flowers and foliage clambering over a green trellis. Everyone discarded his or her usual togs in favor of his or her toniest things, and thoroughly enjoyed him or herself. Tuesday night is the night set for Student Body meetings, followed by a quite informal dance. These meetings were very interesting, due largely to the efforts of the vice-president, Jack Moodey. At one meeting Mr. Brewster, the drama instructor, entertained with some readings. At another time Mr. Ashworth read the play, "Death Takes a Holiday", which was very well received. A program was presented under the auspices of the A. M. S.— which did itself proud—another by the A. W. S., another sponsored by the drama depart ment, and another by the music department. Wednesday evening is left free for study. (By the way, there is always dancing at the hotel on Wednesday evening. Perhaps some people do study.) On several Wednesday evenings, Mr. Ashworth read current or recent plays to his Current Drama classes and any visitors who might be interested. These class meetings were made into soical gatherings by the combination of the play, the refreshments served afterward, and the conversation, sometimes even a spirited discussion, which followed. Thursday night is the night for the A. M. S. meetings. The men won't soon forget the entirely masculine Steak Brawl held by the A. M. S. on the island. Also, Thursdays were the evenings chosen by the drama department to present, at one time three one-act plays, "Mansions", "The Lotus Flower", and "The Better Man", at another time the children's plays, "The Stolen Prince", "The Goosherd and the Goblin", and "The Five Ghosts" were presented by children under the direction of the drama students Some marionnette plays were presented, and the final offering of the year was the three act play, "New Brooms", by Frank Vraven, which was very well received by the fairly large audience. It provided a break in the monotony of ordinary, everyday life, and it also offered apportunity for plenty of work to the members of the stage craft class. Forty-Four

Transcript | Huntington Lake treasurer hunt which misled many eager women all over the campus and even off the campus, while the treasure was tucked under the arm of a far-seeing girl—she skipped her clues. A wienie-roast on the beach of college cove was another A. W. S. attraction. Aside from too much to eat there were all sorts of games, novel games which caused a great deal of amusement to both the participants and the on-lookers. The third outstanding social event of the season was the tea-dancant given in the social hall, which had been completely transformed for the occasion. From a rustic mountainfied hall it changed within the course of a few hours into a spring garden, with flowers and foliage clambering over a green trellis. Everyone discarded his or her usual togs in favor of his or her toniest things, and thoroughly enjoyed him or herself. Tuesday night is the night set for Student Body meetings, followed by a quite informal dance. These meetings were very interesting, due largely to the efforts of the vice-president, Jack Moodey.
