Tattling Tess

Well, it's the morning after the
LUCKY MILLINDER dance and
the first dance where local hep cats
and booted chicks were permitted
to use the Miss. State Armory in
which to jump. 1t goes without say
ing that everyone present had fun
aplenty and enjoyed every minute
of the dance from the time the or
chestra let out with the first strain
until the final tune Home Sweet
Home" was played.
All the gals and guys were on
their best behavior, just as we
knew they would be and to our
knowledge there was not a single
incident to mar the evening of fun
and good time.
To be frank, there is not much
tattling we can do about this dance
there were so many cats and chick
iumpin that, it was ALMOST imposs-

there.
