Abstract
On Friday, 5 December 1975, Africa Hall's Rotunda was bursting at the seams with a crowd estimated at nearly one thousand people milling around the tables to celebrate the 30th anniversary of the founding of the United Nations. The Ras Night Orchestra set the tempo. The highly decorative buffet dinner from the four corners of the earth was extremely appetizing, although there was not enough for the thousand as it had been planned for 500. Those who were at the end of the queue did not get anything to eat despite the fact that the Ghibn came to the rescue. But the atmosphere was so good that, even so, everyone stayed till 4 a.m. when the orchestra, which was exhausted, packed up its instruments. The dinner dance was a huge success and everyone who was there agreed that it was the best in the history of ECA.
