1922 Cedrus Yearbook

Hallowe'en Social F OR various reasons Hallowe'en Eve 1921 is a never-to-be-forgotten night to the students and faculty of old C.C. To the girls, the main event of the evening was the party given for them by the boys. Our gym (you wouldn't have recognized it) was turned into a gayly-lighted ballroom where creatures of various forms and makeups frolicked and romped in true Hallowe'en style. It was a very select crwd; only those who could climb the ladder to the second story window of the gym were admitted. It is rumored though, that this firm and dreadful decree was waived in the case of two young ladies who came to the party dressed as one clown. We don't know just how much it took to bribe the doorkeepers, but we do know that they did not come in through the window. After a long evening of games, contests and good eats, we voted the boys "real entertainers" and resolved that next year we would have to do some "tall hustling" if we were to put on a party equal to this one. P. S. It is rumored that several days after the above party, someone discovered that there had been some cider left over. Nuff Sed! M. W. Cedar Day Happenings TT WAS on one of those fine June days that it all happened, a better "1" day for the exercises could not have been chosen. The day was ideal, being neither too hot, nor was it stormy. The crowd began to gather on the campus early and it was evident that the people of the community appreciated Cedar Day from the size of the crowd. It was said to be the largest crowd that had ever gathered on the campus in the history of the institution. Also the program that was given was declared to have been the best ever. It was intended to picture before our minds, America yesterday and today. The first episode consisted of the spirit of Indian Days, the second episode was the spirit of the Wilderness, and the third episode consisted of the spirit of Patriotism, that which enlivens every true-blooded American. Then Miss Helen Stewart was crowned May Queen, after which the May Pole Dance was given. The oration of the day was given by Nelson Thorn and in it he sought to show what the college meant to the community. All those who had earned letters in any kind of athletics came forward and Mr.Roger Collins very appropriately presented them with their letters. At the noon hour a beautiful sight was to be seen as one looked across the campus and saw the different groups enjoying their basket- dinners. The main event of the afternoon was the baseball game be- tween Cedarville and Antioch. R. W.S. 89
