dark blue of the ceiling decorations
provided an effective background
for the vivid colors and dainty ma-
terials. Glittering trimmings of lame
and sequins and accessories of gold 1
and silver reflected the maize col-
ored lights.
The climax of the evening, the
grand march, was led by Winifred
Bell, '36, and Edward Litchfield,
'36, general chairman. Miss Bell se-

front which outlined the V-neck. She
wore a rhinestone clip at the neck,
with matching' barrings and bracelet.
Her shoes were white velvet, trimmed
with silver, and1 she wore a black vel-
vet wrap with a white lapin ascot
collar.
