When the Daily went to press at midnight it was reliably reported that approximately 86 couples al- ready had passed out. Indications are, informed sources have it, that before many hours have passed, the rest of the J-Hoppers will be in the same condition. No accurate count was possible at this time, but exhausted dancers reaching the side-lines reported that in doing the two-step after midnight, their feet were stepped on only every other step, whereas be- fore midnight, other dancers' feet had been beating a constant tattoo on theirs. It was also reported re- liably that it was possible to dance the length of the floor after mid- night without being jabbed in the ribs more than ten times. A falling off in the number of glasses of gin- gerale spilled on white vests in the crush around the refreshment booth also gave evidence that the ranks of the original 3,000 J-Hoppers had been seriously depleted. Basie, Busse Busy Count Basie and Henry Busse agreed last night. They agreed you should have been there. For the J-Hop was definitely the place-giving keen indi- cation that some day-and some day soon-the J-Hop is going to take the place of lawn croquet for Friday night lulls. More than 3,000 people crowded the floor. The Intramural Building sported the most nicely decorated gymnasium in the country last night. However, a rumor, started by a horrified taxi-driver, that the swimming pool had been converted into a punch-bowl, could not be con- firmed. At least University officials re- fused to admit it. Donald Treadwell, '40, of 'grosse Pointe, was present, ready to lead a grand march along with his guest, Ei- leen Hayward, of Detroit, but the near- est the crowd came to a formal grand march was when the photographer was announced. Three people were injured in the rush to get in the front row. As to the decorations: silver stars in a center panel of blue gave a sky effect to the motif. Booths were draped with burgundy sateen trimmed in gold to meet the columns. The columns also met the booths. These aforementioned columns were semi-circular instead of the ordinary round affairs and had a modernistic design, Wes Lane, '40, and DON TREADWELL, J-HOP CHAIRMAN, and EILEEN HAYWARD House Parties Will Enliven Weekend binson, '40, chairn her guest Albert1 >binson chose whi n dubonnet, witha gown had a halte dubonnet accessori Spurgeon, '40, ch as her guest Roy averse City.
