VOL. 86 JANUARY IL 1946 NO. 7 The Sophomore Cotillion Pull the tuxedos and tails out of the mothballs — the Sophomoi-e Cotillion is again taking its place on the Notre Dame social calendar after an absence of four years. At a meeting held before the Christ mas vacation, the Sophomore class decid ed that the Cotillion will be held on Feb. 8 and 9. Plans already formulated for the festive weekend call for a foi-mal ball on Friday evening, Feb. 8, and a tea dance the following afternoon. The Cotillion will be the first formal class dance since 1942. In years past the Cotillion was always one of the high lights of the social year at Notre Dame. It was usually held in late October or early November, but because of final exams and the start of a new semester this year's dance was moved to February. It had been originally planned to hold the formal ball in the Palais Eoyale or the Indiana Club, but both had been pre viously booked for Feb. 8. Arrangements are now being made by the dance com mittee to hold the dance in the Rockne Memorial. Several well-known band leaders have been contacted, and the committee re ports that a name band will be booked within the next few days. The orchestra CHI booked for the dance will be announced OMt in THE SCHOLASTIC as soon as arrange ments are completed. Even a rainy weekend won't dampen the spirit of the Soph's Gala oHair.
