ASSEMBLY DANCE BIG
SOCIAL SUCCESS

The Assembly Dance at the Rari-
tan Yacht Club last night upheld its
long standing reputation of being
one of the pleasant formal social
functions of the season and proved
an ever greater success than its
many preceding similar affairs. With
guests numbering about $50 the
dance floor proved large enough to
assure comfort and main object of
the function was enjoyably carried
out. Due to Miss Ruth Pratt's ex-
ecutive ability and knowledge of re-
quirements of just such dances, ..ot
an embarrassing moment was ex-
~perienced and Hillpott's orchestra
kept the floor full until the early
hours. One of the features of the
evening was the prize waltz, which,
by the process of elimination was
won by Clayton Clark, Jr.. and part
ner. The committee in charge was
composed Of Miss Ruth Pratt. chair
man: Frank Allen, Allen Jones and
Harold Clark.
Palms, ferns, daffodils and colored
streamers made appropriate decora-
tons and a pretty background, and
the committee hopes to be able to
make a large contribution to the
Home for the Aged as the result of
the success OF the affair.
