Unregistered Ball, That Wasn't
CreatesBurning Telephone Talk
By SUE RIVES
Twenty beautiful co-eds
In twenty beautiful gowns
Eagerly waiting to attend
The Navy Ball in town.
The dance had not been registered
Much to their distress
The whole darn deal was - SNAFU
In fact it was a mess.
The time had come
For the dance to begin
But the phones, hot, were buzzin'
With Ben A. McGuinn.
"Admiral Smith, Please? Hello . . . Admiral Smith, this is Ben
McGuinn at the university. About 20 couples of us are up here at the
girls' dormitories waiting to go to the Navy Ball . . . What Navy
Ball?? the one after the banquet . . . the one you attended . . . the
banquet, I mean. Our dates can't go to the dance. It's not registered.
We called Capt. Needham, but nothing could be done. He told us we
had to get him . . . I mean you . . . to call "Mr." Childs . . . I mean
"Mrs." Needham ... aw-w-w . . . excuse me Capt. . . . I mean Ad
miral . . . shut up . . . you're getting me all excited . . . no, not you
Admiral . . . I'm .all excited . . . these people . . . what's that sir . . .
Let's start over . . . but we feel like fools . . . we're embarrassed for
our dates . . . they're all dressed in formals ready to go . .'. No, Sir;
I'm not a law student, I'm a Sophomore at the University .. . it's the
Naval Reserve Ball . . . all officers and gentlemen . . . they won't hurt
the co-eds . . . Mr. Smith, will you please call Mrs. Childs and give her
your consent. Thank you very much . . . yes, yes, sir; the Naval Re
serve Ball at the Jefferson Hotel . . . I'm sorry to have bothered you,
but thank you for helping us"
The answer was no-but definitely no
Not discouraged they said let's go
To Patrone's, that is-we'll have heeps of fun
Regardless of what those people have done
We tried our best . . . no one's to blame
Registering future dances will be our aim!
