The Cornhusker Staff established a
precedent Saturday night by giving u
formal party.
The affair, which was very exclu
sive, in that it oencerned only twelve
couples, was held at the Alpha Tau
Omega house; It began with a com
plicated grand march and ended with
a lunch of sandwiches and coffeo.
Naturally, the atmosphere was de
cidedly literary, and sparkled with
wit and humor, somo of which will bo
reproduced in the Cornhusker. The
affair Itself was, however, formal only
In appearance, for there were no pro
grams, and nono of that restraint so
prevalent at formal affairs.
After the smoke of tho "flashlight"
had cleared away, willing freshmen
set forth tho bounteous feast, wjiich
was ornamented by impromptu, but
flowery toasts.
Those present were: Messrs. Dana
"Van Dusen, Burton Hill, .Sam Buck,
Harry Coffee, Ralph Sweoley, Soarlo
Holmes, Allen Newman, Guy Reed,
Zackery Taylor, Mark Hargroavbs
and Frank Bocken; Misses Ruth
Evans, Grace Carter, Lojs Logan, Au
gusta Houston, FrancoB Nolan, Mc
Coman, Ruth Tlbbetts, Ruth Grlovlsh
and Katharine Yatos.
