Famous Floor Committee For Bal Boheme Interests. Among the cherished traditions of the Bal Boheme, now in its eighth sea- son, 1s the Floor Committee, which plays so important a part in the festivities of this joyous and colorful carnival of the arts, given annually in the midst (61; the Winter season in the Capital ity. The entrance of this famous group of 33 men, all members of the Arts Club, is one of the annual “thrills” provided by the Ball Committee—and each year, their gorgeous appearance, usually about 10:30 o'clock, is the signal that the real affairs of the spectacle are about to begin in earnest. Mr. Fulton Lewis is chairman this year and Mr. John Walker Holcombe vice chairman of the “army” as it has come to be called, owing to the custom long established, of using the “March of the Wooden Soldiers” as the “motif” of this impressive body. Maj. John A. Hillman, a member of the Floor Com- mittee, has assisted the chairmen in drilling the 1931 “army,” which is said to be in prime condition for Monday night at the Willard. Considerable speculation exists as to just what the floor committeemen will represent this year. There have been whispers that they will appear as astrologers on the moon, but the secret has been kept in- violate in the committee, and it will not be known “officially” until Monday night. The 1931 Floor Committee includes Dr. Paul Bartsch, Mr. Charles Bittin- ger, Mr. H. A. Brooks, Mr. John H. Cox- head, Mr. William I. Deming, Mr. Fred W. Dewarf, Mr. Raymond A. Elliott, Dr. George H. Girty, Mr. Charter He- slep, Mr. Roy Leslie Holmes, Col. John Otto_Johnson, Mr. Samuel S. Koones, Mr. Robert LeFevre, Mr. John Russell, Mason, Judge Charles C.
