The 1944 Christmas Ball of the Cotillion Club was a brilliant event at the Armory on Saturday night. Decor featured blue and white crepe streamers, a silver edged stand, and a blue roped dance floor with walls spaced by ropes. Busby’s Orchestra provided music as club members and guests danced in formal attire including gowns trimmed in blue, mink, and sequins, with escorts from Lt. Hoff to Dr. Bragg and others, describing outfits and dates throughout the event.
