ST. BONAVENTURE, N. Y.--(U. P.)--Here are a few interesting statistics gathered at a Promenade held at St. Bonaventure College.
Of the 71 members of the junior class, from which the statistics were gathered, only 11 per cent were jitterbugs, and 89 per cent were opposed to "jitterbugging," describing the modern version of the terpsichorean art as "barbarism."
The Class, nearly to a man, imported "the-girl-from-back-home." Of these a vast majority were brunettes with only a few blondes and a lonely red-haired girl. For 50 per cent of the class it was their first college prom.
Maureen O'Sullivan, Olivia de Havilland and Priscilia Lane tied for the title of "favorite actress." Gary Cooper and Spencer Tracy were the male favorites.
The average age of the class was found to be 20.6 years.
Sixty per cent were dinner jackets; the rest white ties and tails.
