Scope and content
Alfred Copp, far right, was the chairman for the "Sadie Hawkins" costume ball planning committee in March of 1941. He had to hand crank the committee's "jalopy" to get everyone to their pre-party rehearsal. The dance was to be held at the University Union Club and everyone attending the "Dogpatch" themed affair was encouraged to dress like one of the characters in the popular "Lil' Abner" comic strip. The other committee members are: (l to r) Dr. Carroll Carlson, Miss Frances Parlaman, James Will, Miss Muriel McDonald, Mrs. Helen D. Mann and Mrs. Dolores Carlson. The "jalopy" is a 1906 Model N Ford which was owned by Leon Titus. ( T.Times 3/11/1941, pg. 9)
