Special to THE EVENING JOURNAL
NEWARK, Del, Feb. THE tango
and all other new fancy dances were
prohibited al the Delawars College
Junior Promenade last night Despite
the prohibition, however several
couples engaged in the dance with the
result that the music was stopped at
o'clock Previous TO that hour the
guests had delighted themselves In
watlxes and two steps. In late years
the Junior has become not only
one OF the largest, but also one
Of the most brilliant social affairs held
in Delaware and last night was no
exception. Guests were present last
night from six or seven states, many
OF them being graduates Of the col
lege. The dance was held In the gym
nasium which was beautifully deco
rated. With more than one hundred
couples on the floor and the decora-
tions set of by nearly five hundred
gold and blue (the college colors)
electric bulbs, the affair was a brill
liant one.
Tho decorations represented several
days work by a large committee of
students OF the junior class, Of which
Paul Emerson was chairman. Several
thousand yards OF gold and blue bunt-
ing was used to carry out the idea Of
a series OF arches and alcoyes along
the indoor track above the dance
hoor. Many fraternity and college
pennants and colors we're arranged in
these arches which made a pretty eff
feet when all the electric lights we're
turned on. over the front entrance to
the floor was large electric sign
with Delaware" in gold and blue let
ters. and at the other end Of the room
was another electric sign emhlazoned
with the numerals of the junior class.
Hundreds Of streamers OF the college
colors we're strung across the ceiling
among the rafters.
The programs we're unusually at
tractive. They we're of brown leather
in the shape OF card case with the
college seal and the class numerals
raised on the front.
Stausebach's orchestra Of VIII
mington furnished the music. The
grand march was lead by Herman !.
Little. OF Wilmington, president of the
junior class, accompanied by his sis
ter. Miss Rebecca c. Little. other
class officers followed, after which
came more than one hundred cou-
