HANTS' IN SOGIAL ATNORMAL SCHOOL Spooks Provide Shivers at An- nual Halloween Celebration Ghosts, witches and huge black cats made their annual appearance at the New Britain State Normal 8chool last night. It was an oppor- tunc time for the arrival of these weird creatures trom the land of the supernatural because the largest gocial in the history of the schoo was being held in celebration of the Halloween season, approximately 304 being present. Even the least superstitious of those in the gathering felt the ef- fects of the ghostly arrangement of decorations and lighting effects. The costumes of the attendants resem- bled every character in the world of the story book. Guests would have difficulty in finding their way through the ‘darkened halls of the Normal school if it had not been for accommodating “ghosts” who escort- ed them through a chamber of hor- rors to what was once the gymna- sium of the school. The place was changed completely due to the ex- cellent decorative schemes of a corps of students. This was an appropriate begin- ning for an evening of enjoymen:. The gymnasium was decorated in orange and black. The walls and | windows were covered with THal- loween paper. Black cats in weird | positions, witches stooped over and other strange people were pictured on the paper. And Ghosts Danced! The entertainment was unique. The feature was the dance of the ghosts which was done by a group of students. Miss Catherine Tryon of Portland was master of cere: monies and she conducted her du- ties in an able manner. The next event on the ‘Wwas probably the most colorful of the entire evening. The student attired in their costumes including masks, formed for the grand march. They passed in review before judges who were to select the prettiest, most clever and funniest of the cos- tumes: Richard Wampler, psychol- ogy instructor; Charles Pratt, sci- ence teacher; George Howe, social studies, and Dr. William Dyer, di- rector of the training schools, were the judges. experienced program lelected president; Sisters Win Prizes Unknowingly they selected two sisters as the winners of two of}] the prizes. It was not until they had unmasked that it was discover- ed that Genevieve Zebrowski of Bristol won the prize for the pretti- est costume and Helen Zebrowski, her younger sister, the prize for the funniest costume. Genevieve, who is a senior, was attired as Juliet and Helen, a junior, was in the costume of a fat woman. The cleverest cos- tume prize was won by the mixeld twins, Helen Dehan and Martha Klopp. both of New Britain. Their false faces were on the back ef their heads, the one who appeared as :{ &ho should walk forward was walk- ing backward and the one who ha.l a false face on the back of her head seemed to be walking with her heels first. This event was a fitting climax to & week of socials held under the direction of the dean, Miss Louise Schmahl. She has been experience ing one of her busy seasons. After completing arrangements for ona event it was necessary for her to start on a second. Dormitory Girls' Social Tuesday night the dormitory girls held their social in celebration of the scason. It was a Halloween dinner and masquerade party. The group assembled in costume and tcok part in the grand march before Jjudges who awarded prizes to Miss Ruth Chittenden of Granby for the funniest costume, Miss Rcta Baum o Hartford for the cleverest and Miss Melda Rossi of Waterbury for the prettiest. Miss Chittenden was in a witch costume, Miss Baum was attired as a toreador and Miss Rossi was a Dutch gir A spirited march followed and the girls went to the dining room of the dcrmitory, attractively arranged with candle lights. 'The table was decorated in orange and black. The kall rang with gay songs during the cor g “The Doctor’s Tale,” a dramatic presentation written by Miss Mc- Gehan of Kast Hartford, a member of last year's graduation class, was ented.

HOOVERS' LAUNDRY WILL BE DONE 0UT Room in White House Gives Way Before Offices Washington, Oct. 31.—(#—T laundry room of the White Hou: where 22 years presidential for 22 family linens were washed, has given way to the demand for more office space. In the future the laundry will be | sent to Fort Myer, the ne: post.

Brookline has 47,437 inhabitants, { according to the latest census, but it never has had a movie house. The selectmen of this communit which maintains a modified form of New England town government, called for a vote on the question in 1923 and a majority at that time opposed introducing to the town. An independent, I residential suburb, far into the territory of Boston, which . almost encircles it. Resi- dents who oppose theaters say that the children are better ‘off without them and that ersons who wish find them conveniently located in nearby districts of Boston. Those who want movies in the town are trying to convince the voters that the motion picture has become a universal form of amusement for persons of all ages and that citi- ‘zons are entitled to the comfort and convenience of theaters near- by. However, even if the voice of the people is raised for movies at home it “doesn’t necessarily follow th they will get them.
