House Parties

"No, not all girls—just ideal girls, girls whom we have written to for months, girls whom we have remade goddesses of dreams, girls whom we have loved for what we think they are, girls whom two days cannot mar." Thus spake The Dartmouth, for 634 girls descended upon Hanover for Dartmouth's thirty-first annual spring house party. Among the visitors according to the paper we noted such delightful names as the Misses Armida of Buenos Aires, Argentine; Minerva Belvidere; Joan Bennett, Beverly Hills, Calif.; Sarah Bernhardt, Paris, France; Ruby Smith, Northampton, Mass. (see last year's Jack-O). We wish to compliment those gentlemen who were able to entice such celebrities to the remoteness of Hanover. Not that we would blame anyone for coming, for under a cloudless sky during the whole week-end we watched the baseball team hand successive drubbings to Pennsylvania and Columbia to place the green far in the lead of the inter-collegiate race. The Players presented "You Never Can Tell" by Bernard Shaw Friday night and the Musical Clubs offered a varied program Saturday night. The play was well acted and staged but far too long for such a light-hearted occasion. We wished we could have shown off "Journey's End," given during the week-end of the Green Key convention. Dartmouth now has several actors worthy of recognition in J. M. O'Connor '31 of Salem, Mass.; J. D. Shevlin '32 of Glen Cove, N. Y.; and M. M. Lieberthal '32 of Bridgeport, Conn., all of whom have played in a number of productions.
