"Decorations carrying out this theme signify the faith and knowledge, as well as the fight, of this branch of the armed forces," Captain Ralph Pyper chairman in charge of the affair, said. "Although war conditions have made it impossible to secure many of the things which would make for a brighter dance, South high cadets intend to uphold the stand-ards that the ROTC has made in previous years for the prom," he added. George Engar and his orchestra will play in the boys' gym, and Verdi Breinholdt and his band will be in the library. In charge of decorations in the boys' gym is Colonel Boyd Larsen while Lieutenant Julian Maack is in charge of the girls gym. Lie-utenant Don Russell is in charge of the library. All have staffs of workers under them. . -- Others in charge are Lieutenant Don Lefavor, programs, tickets and invitations; Lieutenant Wal-lace Livingston, refreshments; Lieutenant Colonel Delbert At-woo- d, advertisements; and Cap- - tain George Litke, orchestras. Sergeant Redmond at all times has given his much-neede- d coope-ration in organizing the Cadet Hop. The ROTC commandant agrees that the officers work all year for this dance. It is their aim to make the best Cadet Hop of all time this year. Each succeeding year they try to do something just a little better, and they try to get a little more entertainment and have something outstanding. This dance is for the benefit of the officers and enlisted personel of the ROTC. This organization has but two brilliant affairs to show their "stuff"; they are the Cadet Hop, and the Regimental Review. Sergeant Redmond requests that every possible Cadet of the ROTC that can be, should be in uniform for this particular occasion. All officers will, be in uniform that evening.
