The Press club discovered that the musty old school of Journalism had an att'c that was not used. Which was not as it should be. They decided to give a Bohemian party, and so Wednesday night, a crowd or artists, music professors, poets, artists models, newspaper re porters, and playwrights crowded, slunk, and pattered up to the myster ious realms above the halls where, six days of the week, Dr. Ball holds forth on conventional journalism. Abundance of dark nooks, the best in the world for love-making, cheese 'chips to encourage thirst, punch to slake it, music to dance by, and plenty of rough spots on the floor for the aavkward dancer to blame his mis steps upon. Made for an enjoyable departutre from humdrum newspaper making. The rafters were hung with stream ers of brightly colored crepe, dark green shades covered the lights to keep thenm from glaring the eyes of the guests. Divans, roughly Boheminas, were placed beneath the windowvs and against the chimney, and here and there, in shady nooks, comfortable chairs were arranged in convenient pairs. The party broke uip at 10:30, not be cause the fun was out, but because the woman's dlormitory has an implacable mistress who insists that everyone must be in by that hour, Bohemian, or not. The hilarity was broken uip for an instant when the president brought uip the election of officers, as this was the last meeting of the year. W. L. Crocker was unanimously elected president, Ora Mae Jackson. defeating John Pate for vice-president, and Elizabeth Lindsay, defeating E.mi ly Jay Hughes. for secretary. The ex ecutive committee will consist of J. V. Nielsen, Agnes Carson, and Emily Jay Hughes. -USC Definition: Concentration is a person's ability to keep his eyes on the cards in a strip poker ame.
