The one last Friday night was certainly proof of the fact that students will turn out to an informal, inexpensive dance, and give it their whole - hearted support. Ticket sales totaled 298; the sophs lead the list with 81; the juniors rank second with 61, then come the frosh with 55, the seniors with 42, the grads with 18, and outsiders bought 41. High ticket-sellers were Virginia McDermott and Arnold Ellerin, freshmen, who lead with sales of 54 and 41 respectively. The net profit on the dance was $26.31, of which $25.00 went to the victrola committee; the remaining $1.31 was divided among the four classes.
