CHRISTMAS FORMAL Appropriateness has always been a keynote of Vallport social events - a fact deserving ollly the highest praise from that paragon of the social graces, Emily Pmt. The Ski Club took time out from a busy winter sports season to sponsor the Christmas formal, the Associated \"'omen Students took time out from a blisy Leap Year to sponsor the Valentine's Day formal, and the Bachelors annually take time out from a busy spring and the usual turning fancies to sponsor their pastoral pic­ nICs. During the spring term. the efforrs of the clubs were directed tow­ ard a formal dance to which graduat­ ing classes of all the Portland high schools were invited. The Barristers "crashed" tbe society page with their anniversary dance held at the Rose Room of the Multnomah Hotel in :\l1ay. Each school club is asked to plan and sponsor one dance each term. Dates are decided upon by the inter­ club social council, the individual dubs carry out their own plans, and the success of the affair is then left to the na tllral affini I)' of the sexes. It has ne\'er failed.
