Midway through the dance that was held the following night at the Sheraton Plaza, the classmates and their wives began drifting out of the main ballroom where some ragtime band was going into its 90th turn through "Hold That Tiger." Across the way, their college kids were having their dance and, before long, that was where it was, yes, at. For by Wednesday night, the crowd had really loosened up.
