Annual Home-coming Ball
Held Saturday Evening At The
Eastern Oregon Normal School
Alumni, acuity and students of
the Eastern Oregon Normal school
and other guests frolicked at the
annual home-coming ball Saturday
evening at 9 o'clock at the E. O. N.
ball room. The ball room was dec
orated to carry out the theme of
greeting the alumni back to their
Blue Mountain home. Large murals
picturing peaceful mountain scenes
decorated the walls, and a beam of
light directed the alumni back.
The Intermission features were pre
sented by Sock and Buskin as a mo
tion picture with a melodrama and
short subjects. Leo Andrew sang
"Tumbled Down 8hack In Athlone."
The melodrama was gripping with all
the stock characters ably taken, and
proved to be amusing in spite of the
tearful theme. The cast Included
Guy Tucker aa the sheriff; Ltll Hof
mann as Miguel, the little Spanish
boy; Dorothy Hill as Faro Nell; Rod
ney Miller as the cowboy, Louis
Plnson a the vlllian. Mr. Erlckson
as Happy Hanks, and Pratt Johnson.
President and Mrs. H. E. Inlow and
members of the faculty were patrons
and patronesses for tho ball. Music
was furnished by the Campus Racke
teers. ,
The alumni banquet preceded the
dance at the La Grande hotel. Harry
Dawson, president of the-Associated
Students, was toastmaster and talks
were furnished by faculty, alumni
antt students. ,
A violin solo was furnished by Miss
Maellzabeth Cooper, and group sing
ing of school songs was led by MIbs
Jennie Peterson.
A meeting of alumni followed the
morning assembly on Saturday.
Alumni dues of 60 cents will be col
lected at each home-coming, It was
decided. Harvey Carter, Bill Cald
well and Bethmyrl Miller were ap
pointed on a committee to investi
gate the feasibility of editing an
alumni edition of the Beacon, E. O.
N. paper.
' A committee to work In co-operation
with the Normal school adminis
