Mother and Daughter lianquet T HE Mother and Daughter banquet held in the Alford Memorial Gym- nasium, May 10, was proclaimed a decided success by all in attendance. The banquet is not an old custom, but was initiated by the girls of the Y.W.C. A. as an Etiquette Project two years ago. After the success of the first it was the unanimous wish that the banquet be made an annual affair.

President's Reception The invitation to "Dr. Mac's Reception" was greeted with wild delight from every student and member of the faculty. We all love to go to our president's home: and on the eve of the "Big Occasion" we were all there, each resplendent in manner, dress, and state of mind. Dr. and Mrs. McChesney (whom we love to call Dr. and Mrs. Mac) received the guests and extended a hearty welcome to all. A very delicious lunch consisting of veal salad, olives and wafers, ice cream, lady fingers, and coffee was served. Following the lunch hour was a short pro- gram. There was first a selection played by Miss Dorothy Wolff on the banjo-uke. This was followed by a piano solo by Miss Lenora Skinnell. Last came an impromptu reading by Miss Carmen Frazier. C.
