Not Always A Big Dance
The Military Ball was not • al
ways in the classification of big
dances on campus, but was given
this status last year. Under stu
dent regulations, dances riot clas
sified as "big dances" are not
permitted to be held past mid
night and coeds do not receive
late permissions for them. Some
of the determining factors in.giv
ing the Military Ball this classifi
cation were the attendance, hav
ing a name band, the price of
tickets, the place held, and the'
people invited. Although the nurh:.
ber of tickets sold is limited, any:
one is permitted to attend.
Behind the scenes, three mili
tary honor societies are helping
with preparations. Scabbard . and
Blade was the first honor society
and was founded in 1903. Mem
bers are chosen from all advanced
ROTC units. Pershing' Rifles; 'also
including all units, was founded
on campus in 1932.
Members of both groups Will
serve in the honor line. .
Arnold Air Society is sponsor
ing the Angel Flight, women's
group who will make their first
appearance at the dance.
