PROM
June 1921

Dartmouth's annual Junior Prom came and went in a blaze of glory. It was in no sense of the word a huge affair, but it made up in quality for what it lacked in quantity. Indeed two weeks before it began it looked as if Prom would be all but a failure owing to the small number of guests expected.

Prom opened Thursday with the production of "Rise, Please!" which scored fully as great a hit as at Carnival time. Hard showers Friday morning threatened to spoil the day, but the weather cleared just in time to allow Dartmouth to defeat Columbia in baseball and whitewash Pennsylvania in tennis. The ball that evening marked the climax of the weekend. The gymnasium was ornamented with Oriental decorations designed by Q. H. Moore '23. Saturday at noon the annual election of the "mayor" of Hanover was held, J. L. Sullivan '21 being chosen to guard the "keys to the city." Following this Dartmouth went down to defeat before the Pennsylvania nine. A dansant in the gym, a hum on the campus, and the Musical Clubs concert completed the program.
