Holiday fun for the returning boys and girls is the all-compelling motive insistently influencing the minds and plans of mothers along the north shore, whose sole desire is to . fill all the available days with as much pleasure as possible, to have their sons and daughters mingle with their former friends here, and to make their "hometown" attractive. On Wednesday posters appeared announcing that the Barbary Coast orchestra of Dartmouth college has been engaged for what promises to be an inclusive north shore e v e n _t, the H9mecoming party on Thursday, December 23, in the roof ballroom of the Orrington hotel. This day was chosen in order that all the boys and girls could arrive home in time to attend. Tickets for this affair may be obtained from the following Glencoe girls, Miss Gwendolen Washington, Miss Marian Black Miss Betty Miller, Miss Agnes Cornett' Miss Wilma Cresmer, Miss Barbara Miller and Miss Edith Bu1len. ' One mother says. of this affair: "Do you realize how easy it is to get out of touch with home friends? Haven't you heard your son or your daughter say, 'I do not know anybody around here any more.' Away they meet new people, none of whom have any better ba_ckgro~nd than your boy or girl. At th1s penod,· they themselves, change. ~hey develop. So often hometown enVIronment only suggests criticism. Because the young people cannot be natural, which means being happy and gay, they prefer to go among . strangers wh~re they can express that new self_ whtch has bee.n released in college environment. Thts Homecoming will be the medium for a general north shor~ 'get-together' and parents will readlly see ~hat the only way to have a large reumon like this is to make the party a benefit."
