The present schedule is as follows: 12:35—1:25 1:35—2:25 2:35—3:25 3:35—4:25 4:35—5:25 This change in schedule should prove to be a god-send to practice teachers who all too soon come to realize that "Tempus fugit" while racing between Milne and Draper.

Henry Green, '38, chairman of the evening's activity, announced that the bonfire will be Ignited at 8:00 o'clock. The committee plans to have the various classes grouped behind their respective banners in their order of seniority. The freshman class will be greeted by the presidents of the upper classes and these executives have promised to unbend and be nonchalant in giving serious advice. As the circumference of heat intensity widens, the cheerleaders, Marion Kingsley, and Gordon Peattie, sophomores, will lead the assemblage in State cheers. This activity will teach the novices the art of loud noisemaking through the traditional college yells. Singing, which is one of the most popular of State's pastimes will occupy a great deal of the time. Each of the classes is to render an appropriate song for the occasion and all will be trying to outdo the other in the sweet melodic strains. After the classes sing their specialties Mary Trainer, '40, student association song leader, will lead the entire gathering in some of State's traditional songs. The last rendition of song by the united body will be Great F'ircx. This is one of the few times that this truly great song of our college is permitted to be sung, and sentiments of heart and voice will be unleashed as is usual when this song is given. At 10:30 o'clock the festivities will be closed by a mammoth snake dance composed of the entire assemblage. This weaving line will wind its way about the campus of the residence halls as the embers of the once glowing fires fade into nothingness and darkness enshrouds the spot. D.
