Ambassador Hotel, March 21: To the Editor of the Daily Trojan: A wow of a time was enjoyed by all present at the Interfraternity formal. By interfraternity formal Is meant a dance social where the actives of Sigma Chi and Kappa Alpha are formally introduced to all their pledges for the first time. The beauty of the Fiesta room was charmingly relieved by the absence of corsages. So were the finances of fraternity troubadors. Only one casualty occurred when a starched front dress shirt broke from its moorings and smacked into a lovely coed on the spur of the moment. Much relief can be added to the next affair if all dress shirts were required to be anchored. Some of the pledges were rather self-conscious. Most of them looked as If they were expecting someone who was not going to stow up. And the most stunning gown worn was a form fitting creation of hand-soaked taffeta, trimmed with peeved whippet, and set off by artistic splashes of pomegranate seeds. Yours for less wear and tear.

A few days later, they adopted a temporary constitution and by-laws, elevating the following officers: Dr. George Finley Bovard, '83, now President-Emeritus of S. C.; vice-president, Miss Minnie C. Miltimore, '84; secretary, George Sinsahaugh, '85; and treasurer, Miss Eve F. Walton, '85. The university itself was five years old when the first Alumul Association was formed, classes having commenced in October, 1880. Following the plan of the founders of the Alumni Association, a leuuic/n of the members with the new graduates was held Informally each year during the commencement week. In 1924, an organized homecoming program was held in the fall for the first time, GROUP IS REPRESENTATIVE The professions of law, government, speech, music, architecture, medeclne, dentistry, social welfare, religion, and commerce are fleld3 in which S.

Brooks has had considerable dramatic experience in hibh school, although he has never appeared in a campus production before. The play is presented in three acts all of which are laid in the villa; a prologue, which takes place in London starts the action. Four women decide to rent a villa on the Mediterranean for the month of April, in order to get away from everything. The villa and the weather are so lovely that all four women come under the spell and their dispositions change materially until all are happy.

Ambassador Hotel, March 21: To the Editor of the Daily Trojan: A wow of a time was enjoyed by all present at the Interfraternity formal. By interfraternity formal Is meant a dance social where the actives of Sigma Chi and Kappa Alpha are formally introduced to all their pledges for the first time. The beauty of the Fiesta room was charmingly relieved by the absence of corsages. So were the finances of fraternity troubadors. Only one casualty occurred when a starched front dress shirt broke from its moorings and smacked into a lovely coed on the spur of the moment. Much relief can be added to the next affair if all dress shirts were required to be anchored. Some of the pledges were rather self-conscious. Most of them looked as If they were expecting someone who was not going to stow up. And the most stunning gown worn was a form fitting creation of hand-soaked taffeta, trimmed with peeved whippet, and set off by artistic splashes of pomegranate seeds. Yours for less wear and tear.

BIRTH OF ASSOCIATION It was nearly forty-five years ago, on June 15, 1885, that eight graduates of the University of Southern California first met and considered the plans for the formation of an alumni association. The group included three women, attired ln basque-waisted dresses of volumnious skirts, and five men. A few days later, they adopted a temporary constitution and by-laws, elevating the following officers: Dr. George Finley Bovard, '83, now President-Emeritus of S. C.; vice-president, Miss Minnie C. Miltimore, '84; secretary, George Sinsahaugh, '85; and treasurer, Miss Eve F. Walton, '85. The university itself was five years old when the first Alumul Association was formed, classes having commenced in October, 1880. Following the plan of the founders of the Alumni Association, a leuuic/n of the members with the new graduates was held Informally each year during the commencement week. In 1924, an organized homecoming program was held in the fall for the first time, GROUP IS REPRESENTATIVE The professions of law, government, speech, music, architecture, medeclne, dentistry, social welfare, religion, and commerce are fleld3 in which S.

Brooks has had considerable dramatic experience in hibh school, although he has never appeared in a campus production before.

Four women decide to rent a villa on the Mediterranean for the month of April, in order to get away from everything. The villa and the weather are so lovely that all four women come under the spell and their dispositions change materially until all are happy.
