the dance which will be held in
the Coliseum at 9 p.m. Dec. 10.
Krupa says about music, ''Popu
lar dance music today, that is,
good dance music, has adopted
the swing beat. I don't mean
it must have rhythm only
that
and
be loud or full of volume,
but I
do mean that there
should be
rhythm and plenty of it!"

The M.B. turnabout dance tra
dition means that women will be
expected to be escorts for the eve

corsages if they want and ask for

and radishes.

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

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.
