Bachelor Introduced With Jingle As each Bachelor was escorted on the the Coliseum stage by a Mortar Foard, he was introduced by a clever jingle. The stage was decorated with snow and ice-covered evergreens, and the rest of the Coliseum was appropriately decorated in a Christmas theme. The coeds displayed unprece dented ingenuity at last year's ball. Some transported their dates to the dance in wheelbarrows, carts and ambulances; others in taxis, limousines and coed-driven autos. Corsages ranged from hal ters and blinders to gas-filled balloons. Sam Donahue's orchestra played for the dancing, rendering a few novelty numbers which featured the drummer and the vocalist. Funeral Today; les 'Negligence' into Englebart's death because the 1 same facts were involved in both cases. ! Reed, who was driving the sixth car, said he "didn't remember hit tinc anv people." His speed was estimated to have been 60 miles per hour and in the opinion of the two patrolmen at the acci dent he "was drunk." Blood tests showed 1.9 milligrams alcohol in his bloodstream. Most courts rec ognize a percentage from 1 to 1.5 milligrams to be the point of drunkencss. Lost Control One of the patrolmen ricsenbed Reed as "somewhere between hav ing lost part of his muscular con trol and falling down." Reed has been held on an open charge since the accident. County Attorney Wagcncr said after the jury's ruling he had not yet de cided whether he would bring charges, if anv against Reed. J41 BY HAROLD ABRAMSON Sport I'.Uitor.
