Thursday night the plunge was In

was in fun plunge?
Maybe you wouldn't say either, but
that the dance was in full swing
But whatever else you'd say, it
would have to be said that every
thing rolled merrly along and made
little thrills O. happiness creep up
and down the spine.
Dancers tried each other on the
scintillating new floor. Father and
daughter, mother and son were no

A collegiate orchestra put the
whole world in hilarious humtr.
The man who had been dragged off
by his wife or sweetheart, when he
didn't want to so bit forgot to be
grouchy. and actually felt sheepish
when he caught himself smiling.
Even the Marathon dancer from
West Lake SKINNED over the floor.
Those who didn't find dancing to
their taste had perfectly good grand
stand steats in the cafe from where
they could watch the bathers be-
tween courses of the most substantial
dinners at all, Or comfortable places
in the bleachers to watch the antics
of plain white folks changed into
flaming red men, blue devils. or pink
gods, by the uneXplainable cascade.
