do we dance or eat?'
This question, which has been up
uermost in the minds of many mem
bers of the senior class of Tech High
School since a movement was started
to substitute the proposed senior
prom with a banquet. was definitely
settled today.
Principal Frank c. Daniel an
nounced that he would not interfere
with the prom plans, and the senior
class committee in charge immedi-
atsly began preparations for the
event.
Principal Daniel said the only OBJ
faction he had ever made to the
dance was that the majority Of the
students in the senior class did not
dance, and consequently he did not
believe it would be a success from a
financial standpoint. He pointed out
that the questionnaire circulated
among the senior class showed thai
only seventy-three out of the ia
members favored q dance.

A girls composition on Pants"
Pants are made for men and men for
pants. When a man pants for a wo-
man and a woman pants for a man
they are "A pair Of pants. Such pants
do not last. Pants are like mOlasses,
they are thinner in hot weather and
thicker in cold. The man in the moon
changes his pants during an eclipse.
Men are often mistaken in pants. Such
pants are made breaches Of promise.
There has been much discussion as
to whether pants are singular or plur-
al. Seems to US when men wear them
it is plural and when they don't wear
any it is singular. Men get on a tear
in their pants and it's all right, but
when the pants get on a tear it's all
wrong"
