It is seen that the main trouble lies in the numbers attending and in the fact that the Ball is held after the ceremony and in the same hall. The remedy for this is to confine the capping ball, as such, to graduates and staff, with partners; further that it be held on a different date—the most suit able being after the graduands supper, which could be made buffet from 5-7.30.

There is no need to deny others; the pleasure of an end-of-term. dance or ball; another dance could be held—with no complimentary tickets—on, say, the Saturday night.

Finally, the Capping Ball dance programme should include a wider selection of dances.
