Students in the department of architecture are now preparing an answer to the invitation of the department of Fine Arts and drawing in the School of Fine Arts to a Wilge dien Green"dipharty to be held in the old Commons, Feb. 24.

First Party in 1919
Pirate Party in 1925
By 1922 the painters had forgone, about the crude ways of the siloon and so in return gave a "Latin Quarter Cafe" party. The young men who draw pictures on the third floor of Marvin hali retaliated with a genuine banquet and in 1924, they received an invitation to the international costume party.
The next year the Fine Arts students responded with a costume art party. Then in 1921 the young builders created an elaborate stage, as they called it when they again invited the students of the painting department to attend this time in a regular gambling game.
The "Pirate" party came in 1925. The third floor of Marvin hall was decorated to represent a ship. Several reliefs of the party still remain, one is a pirate's long knife with a tin tip and a genuine plaster paris skull.
"Hades" Party Given in 1926
The "Hades" party was given by the school of the late Dr. John A lot of little devils took the invitation and an announcement by the devil came to Mavin in March. In 1928 the architects brought a vinduelle movie and a game.
Each one of the invitations in the past years has been of a novel nature, and Ms. Lippman is no longer original with both groups, as cording to George M. Bail, assistant counselor at New York University.
