LO" 3iunir Pronm One of the most successful "proms" of the history of East High school was given on the evening of May 17 at Elks' hall by the class of 1913. The crowd was probably the largest ever present at an event of this kind but everyone reported a fine evening of enjoy- ment. The dancing lasted from nine to one in the morning. A great deal of credit must be given to the general committee in charge of the affair which consisted of Milton Smith, chairman, Marion Hollister and Hazel Larsen. The subsidiary committee also showed good taste. The music furnished by Vandenberg's orchestra was excellent and the decorations were beautiful. Mr. and Mrs. Ream and Mr. and Mrs. Wright acted as patrons and patronesses. 0-- O nior (11as tffiy The past year seemed to be one of general excellence in every line. Therefore it is a fact that the class play given this year is the greatest undertaking of its line in the history of East High school. In the first place it is a musical comedy while all the others in former years were plays without any music whatever. In the second place it involves a great many people. Including the chorus there are at times sixty people on the stage which is a record as far as High School plays are concerned. We are sure that by this time its success has been proved without a doubt. The characters picked for the leading parts cer- tainly are fitted in every way for them and cannot help making a hit. The scenes and characters are as follows: ACT I. The main dack of the good ship, "Bounding Bidelia" en route from Europe. ACT II. "Sunnyside," the home of the pirates. Characters: Professor Bendigo Bangs ...................... Clarence DuChateau Late proprietor of Bangs Wonderful Turkish Dancing Doll. Axel Axelson ........................................ Carl W endels Late assistant with the Dancing Doll. Combination. Page Seventy Eight
