One hundred and fifty shekels
poured into the Golfers of the high
school athletic fund, and six hundred
| hungry people were given a meal
such as their mothers used to give
them at the high school athletic sup
per last night With LIE Roy Bowen
as head chef and Principal l.. NJ
Jorgenson as chief bread cutter what
could be expected but success? Even
the fondest dreams of the high school
people were more than realized by
the size of the crowd which attended
the supper and the fondest dreams of
those who attended were more than
realized by the excellent repast set
before them.
The supper was given in the
Knights of Columbus hall and the
hall was put in readiness and the
| food taken to it during the earlier
part of the day. Everything about
the banquet hall had reception-like
and inviting appearance. The three
long tables extended the length of the
rooms and were shrouded in white
linen covers, decorated profusely with
red and white carnations, to say
nothing of the banquet goodies.
Serving Commenced at Five.
Serving commenced at five O'Clock
and continued through until 1880
AS the guests thronged the large hall
they were gracefully escorted to the
tables by head walters, and We're
served to a bountiful repast by the
white coated high school men.
During the meal the high school
orchestra gave d musical program OF
high quality and was well received
included several classics as well as
the popular catchy music. The nun
Der perhaps the most enthusiastically
received was I'm the Guy" The
clever handling of this by the or.
chestra called forth several encores
AS the supper was to be strictly
a high school affair it was conducted
exclusively by high school people
The kitchen was attended to by about
fifteen girls while twice as many
boys in white linen coats served as
table walters. Perhaps the busiest
man on the scene was Leroy Bowen
chairman of the supper committee
his time being occupied in managing
the affair, which he did in a very
cOmmendable way. His ability in
getting the cooperation of the stu.
dents deserves much praise. He also
assisted the ladies in the kitchen Mr.
Jorgenson's time was also profitably
spent cutting bread.
Contributed BY Students.
The food for the supper was con,
tributed by the students, so a large
percentage of the receipts of the
supper will be profit and will go into
the treasury of the athletic union,
which is the most important organi.
cation of the high school,
Much credit for the success of the
supper is due Leroy Bowen, Gertrude
Nerbovig and Margaret Chambers,
the committee who worked so dill.
gently on the arrangements. The
head walters were Edward Wise,
Wheaton Williams and Harold Piper
and they were assisted by a number
of the other boys.
Few criticisms can be made of the
management of the supper and all OF
the work of the evening appeared to
move in perfect unison. The social
feeling of the gathering was in every
way what was to be desired.
After the tables were cleared and
the floors swept the students were
allowed to spend a couple of hours
dancing.
ST. David's day was observed at
the Welsh Calvinistic Methodist
church last night by special pro
gram of music and addresses. The
musical numbers included some OF
