Real 'Husker Tradition
As traditions go, the Nebraska
cupboard appears to the casual
observer as bare as Mother Hub
bard's deep freeze unit Nearly
anything which has meen making
its appearance yearly for three
years or four sessions is "tradi
tional" according to copy writers'
standards.
Even in 1911, the first Com
husker on file in the present of
fice reveals, the social life of the
juniors and seniors was not ne
glected. The Junior Prom and
Senior Prom were both held in
the Lincoln hotel ballroom, a
month apart. Th picture suggests
only sweeping has been done
since. A musical aggregation

known as "Walt's Orchestra"
played selections from "The Girl
of My Dreams' for the juniors,
while the seniors had to be con
tent with excerpts from "The
Dollar Princess." Prices evident
ly have gone up since then.
In 1927, the first Senior-Junior
prom to be held since World war
I called a halt to campus social
functions found 300 couples danc
ing in the elaboratel decorated
Coliseum. The president of the
senior class, Robert Stephens, pre
sented Miss Elice Holovtchiner
as the representative social girl of
the class as first Prom Girl.
Ten years later, more than three
times the crowd, 2,000 couples,
danced to Anson Weeksand his
orchestra in the Coliseum. Clos
ing the three-month formal sea
son, the Prom presented Adrienne
Griffiths as Prom GirL Robert
Wadhams and Floyd Baker, class
presidents, escorted Miss Grif
fith thru the crowd to renew the
dancing.
Last year's Prom GirL Mary
Cox, first to reign since 1943
joined the crowds who danced to
the music of Sunny Dunham.
Once again the war had broken
into the succession, but normali
ty was approaching.
