Badgering John of the West Hall re­ sulted in nothing. Raising a hue and cry and banging of cups got naught. It took the Alumni Association with its far-reaching power to bring re­ sults. On that night of nights, that of the Senior Banquet, the West Din­ ing Hall, yes, the West Dining Hall!, was turned into a night club! Seniors who had loped over to the eatery, lured by the unmistakable whiff of cooking steaks, stopped dead at the sight that confronted them. They saw huge bunches of bright flowers in vases on tables covered by gleam­ ing white tablecloths. Glittering sil­ verware flashed under subdued lights. John of the West Hall was a suave and smooth Oscar of the Waldorf, and instead of leaping back from the door, after unlocking it (as is his custom because of the high mortality rate of dining hall door unlockers) John acted the Maitre de Hotel to perfection. At one end of the hall a baton raised and fell and the "Mod- emaires" swung out with "Don't Be That Way"—and particularly appro­ priate it was, too, because how could the boys help be dazzled by it all. They had that Alice-in-Wonderland look on their faces as they groped their way to seats. Of course there were a few things missing that make for a real clubby atmosphere, but the boys all agreed afterwards that the transformation left them stunned and even some of the speeches failed to penetrate. A few pertinent re­ marks did stick, however. It came to light during the speechmaMng that 'Yeah, he's pretty all right, but 'Baeealaureus Artium* doesn't sound a number of years ago a man with a nearly as sweet as $15 a week." 12 THE NOTRE DAME SCHOLASTIC
