Opening Social
Opening Social.
Bad management marked the final Social held under the auspices of last year's Students' Association Committee. The Programme was divided into two parts, the second part consisting wholly of dances. No information was given as to part one, except that it contained six items. It turned out that two of these (Numbers three and six) were dances, the remainder of the items being varyingly subdivided and consisting of songs and such embarrassments. By the time the first dance. (event number three) arrived, those present were unable to determine whether they had reached event number six or whether it was only the fourth of fifth item. They were kindly allowed by the officials of the evening to flounder along unenlightened. During the course of the evening the President of the Students Association welcomed the new students and Professors, and Professors Picken and Adamson replied. Sons were contributed by Miss Martin and J. D. Smith, recitations by Miss B. Nicholson and G. W. Reid, and two items by a small orchestra conducted by Miss Kirk. Supper followed the first half of the programme, and as aforesaid, the second half was devote to dancing.
