ground for the charm and beauty of
the visiting as we'll as the Grenada
girls. causing many of the stronger
sex to ''fall' for their lover-like gal
lantry.
The Grand March began at $50 and
was led by Miss Wilmer Thomas and
"Er." Hattie Moody. Promptly at
twelve O'Clock the New Year was ush-
cred in by various figures, each couple
being presented with confetti, popping
jacks, horns, whips and numerous other
