The guardian., 1941-06-07

WEDNESDAY the 21st was one of
those too, too fine nights that come
but once a year when your dear ole
Alma Mater gives its annual Spring
Promenade This year the affair
was held atop the Parker House where
couples strolled to and from the ball
room awe-stricken at the sight of
nearly all of Boston which was clearly
visible with the aid of the moon and
twinkling stars overhead Almost
the entire Boston College Sophomore
Glass was there including the Sopho-
more Sugar Bowl Stars ~. The music
was supplied by Roland Rollins and
band, and although it wasn't quite up
to Count Basie's music, it served the
purpose well and everybody was hap
py E, The affair was huge success
and the crowd later edged its way to
the Smith House on Riverside drive
Hello folks your Uncle Paul is
still hanging over a bang-up holiday
weekend so until the ice bag gets
refilled here's old faithful Jimmie
"Towne Club" Lane the pie-eyed piper
of Harlem who will spot the social
swish for you 49,.
THURSDAY the 29th, the Epsilon
Chapter of Alpha Kappa Alpha Soror-
ity presented their May Promenade
and gay affair it was The fine
Cantabrigia Club in Cambridge seemed
to overflow with lovelies and Boston's
most glamorous girls waltzed and
plugged" to the fine music of Tasker
Crosson's aggregation A few of
those seen here and there were: cute
Ruth Andre, student at Boston City
Hospital, Helen Worthy, Jane Free
man, Mr.. and Mrs. ]. B. Hall, Fred
rick Franklin, Maceo Harris, Reynold
Costa, George Strait and loads of
others Sociologically speaking, a
mob is defined as a crowd only much
more so This is exactly what
greeted the eye at Egleston Square
Gardens last Friday (3O) The
Esquire club of Boston again proved
what they really mean to their club, a
fast moving organization Yours
truly was entrusted with the care of
almost an entire neighborhood includ-
ing Martha Mocodoo, Elinor Jumper,
Ruth Lane, Barbara Belts, Romeyn
Byrd . Once at the dance however,
the girls seemed to be able to hold
their own lat least someone was hold
ing them) . In fact, I wondered if
that Lyppman chop (Junior) would
ever turn Martha McAdoo loose g..
Coca Lyppman was occasionally seen
dancing with cute Susie Slade .
Others seen were: Roberto Rhue,
"Finnie" Markham, Lorraine Phippin,
Fledra Carter, Carrie Mclaughlin.
Charlie and Barbara Atkins, Harold
Russell, George Jackson, John Rich

steady with popular numbers

even the instructors are agile and
very active as they excelled in almost
all the sports &. l guess that's all
for this time folks, but remember,

valuable and at the same time you
help your country.
