Yale Junior Promenade Ls Scheduled For FridayNight

purposely for the Prom.
 Ever since its origin the Yale Prom has been the oldest tradition at Yale and ranks with the more important social events in the coun- try. Although not as formal the past few years, due to economic condi- tions, the Prom was always the last word in formality. Last year and this year attempts were made to bring back some of the formality and glamour for which these prorns wert always noted. The one tradition of the junior Prom which has never been neglected is the presentation of the Wooden Prom tc the chairman of the current prom from the chairman of the last years party. Originally his spoon was presented at commencement time to the handsomest man in the class. then to the homeliest, the best liked, or the one most likely to succeed. etc. Several years back 1t was decided to present 1t at Prom time to the chairman, in whose pos- session 1t stays until the next prom.
 The Yale Dramat will present '"The W'eavers" the afternoon fol- lowing the py om. Departing from its usual cust Jm of having no girls in the cast, this years play will have the assistance of nine students from Sarah Lawrence College, Bronxville. N. Y. The Yale GIee Club will pre- sent its usual prom concert Friday night just prior to the prom.
 The young prom guests will stay at St. Elmo and Vernon houses for the weekend, others in hotels and homes of faculty members or friends. Vernon, St. Elmo and York hall will all have 6e-ces following the prom, which will last until dawn; and there will also be closed dances the following night.
 The me.aberS of the prom com- mittee anC their guests will have a dinner party in Mory,s prior to the prom. Members of the committee are: George H. Weed of Savannah, Ga, chairman: Clinton Edward Frank of Evanston, OIL, floor man. ager; and James Burkbank Knowles treasurer; Lawrence B. Durham, Jr., of Riverdale, N. Y.; Robert s.
