RESTAURANTS DO
GOOD BUSINESS AS
GIRLS FEED DATES
Boys, 'Who Pay and Pay,9
Have Good Evening
At No Cost.
The well known cash register
tinkled merrily as the coeds
"footed" a few general expense
items following the annual Mortar
Board party Friday night. With
total disregard for the right hand
side of the menu card, the boy
friends "who pay and pay" had one
good evening at no cost Friday
night. Roast turkey. T bone
steaks, and other rare delicacies
were ordered without discretion by
the male contingent.
Arriving on the scene of the
annual party at the coliseum in
various sorts of transportation
ranging from skates to automo
biles, with a liberal sprinkling of
antiquated Fords in the majority,
the girls entertained with Mel
Snyder and his Gold Coast Orches
tra furnishing the music.
Taking advantage of an op
portunity to show how they would
like to be entertained, many coeds
bought their dates corsages which
included among other things car
rots, pansies, sunflowers and spin
ach. Checks at most of the popular
restaurants disproved any student
depression, most of them ranging
from two to three times higher,
as under normal conditions.
