December 30,1915, was a beautiful day in the Eastern Mediterranean and we travel- ers on the SS. Persia sat down happily to what would probably be our last luncheon as we were due to arrive in Port Said on the following morning. Our last luncheon it was, for suddenly there came a blast like thunder and in the twinkling of an eye the dining saloon, which had been full of lun- cheon chatter and laughter, became a place as silent as death. There was a rush for the lifeboats by all save four Belgian nuns who clasped hands while they prayed and re- signed themselves to their fate. They paid no heed to my plea that they make for the deck, and I left them to try to find my roommate, a young bride on her way tojoin her husband, a soldier, in Mesopotamia. Our cabin was empty, and with her life- belt in one hand and my own in the other I joined the mass of shocked humanity, scrambling up the stairway in the hope of being in time to find safety in a life boat. But water was pouring through the port- Dr. Warnshuis at the dedication of the infirmary named/or her. holes and the ship was listing to starboard, so much so that when I finally reached the deck, the railing was almost flush with the water.

13 ROUND & ABOUT

Social event of the year: Beaux Arts Ball

No tacky Xeroxed posters herald this event; word of mouth more than suffices. The invitations, designed by art major Jeannine Riley '84, feature sed uctively gloved hands, one clutching a glass of champagne, an- other dangling a black mask. They're sent only to the select 800 or so students taking art, art history, or music courses. The dress: Beaux Arts Formal. The music; The Beaux Arts Band. The occasion: The Beaux Arts Ball. In three short years, the Beaux Arts Ball has achieved top billing on the Connecticut College social calendar. Students beg, bribe, and bargain for the chance to shell out $6 for tickets in advance, $7 at the door. For this not inconsiderable sum, the lucky beaux arts student is entitled to dress to the hilt, admire the year's most elaborate deco- rations, mingle with art and music depart- ment faculty members, and dance to a 12- Jeannine Riley '84, Mary Bridgman '84 and Richard Snyder :g6 piece swing band. displayed the proper attitude at the 1984 Beaux Arts Bail A slight drizzle did little to deter students from attending this year's gala, held Friday April 13th in the Cummings Arts Center.
