WINONA SOCIETY ENTERTAIN
One of the most enjoyable parties of the year was giv
en by the Winona Society in the gym on Saturday night.
The girls had gone to considerable work in decorating
the gym with greenery and pennants and streamers of
the society colors, while Indian baskets and rugs were
used artistically to carry out the scheme in honor of
“ Indian Day.”
About 150 students and employes attended. The
evening was spent in social conversation, games and
dancing, which was interspersed with a short program
consisting of a piano solo by Catherine Reed: recita
tion by Laura Therriault; a pantomime dance by Ma
mie Frisk, at which time four girls sang a song. Ta
bles were set around the balcony and a bounteous re
past was served. Laura Squiqui, president, Rose
Simmons and Julia Mills were prominent in planning
and arranging for the entertainment of the guests.
At the close of the refreshment period, Reggie
Downie, as president of the Student Body, Mae
Adams, president of the Nonpareils, Henry Darnell,
president of the Excelsiors, Frank Peratrovich, presi
dent of the Reliance, and Anna Loftus, president of
the Sigma Phi Deltas, and Miss Roberts, advisory
member of the Winonas, gave brief but appropriate
talks complimentary to the occasion. The young men
guests gave three cheers for the Winona Society at
the close of the evening.
CHEMAWA DEFEATS MT. ANGEL
In a fourteen-inning game of baseball, Chemawa de
feated the Mt. Angel team last Saturday with a score
of 2-1. The visitors made their only score during the
first inning, while Chemawa scored in the 6th and
14th. The game was a good one from beginning to
end and kept the audience thrilled throughout.
Joseph Bettles did the pitching. The last run was
secured by Reggie Downie, who batted a grounder
through the right field and gained first base, while
James Crane followed with a heavy hit past center
field, making a three-bagger and enabling Downie to
register a score, thus winning the game.
