Each yeer, even about a week before the

invitedo Nai^urally, thoy f.re not just a
little nervousp All of these
pretty
young things are saying to one another^^
'^hat shall we do? Should we take
our
ticket and sk someone ourselves^ or possibly we should sell our ticket and trust
our luck,, or somethings, to get us to the
d^nce?"" Honestly,fellas we are just in a
quandary , V/hiche. ver wo decide to do v/ill
probably be wrings and we'll eithtr be
goin^>, with someone., and then get an invitation, ot/ wo'? 11 not go at all; can'^t yc
help us? KOW about starting to invite us
dazzingly beauties at a little earlier
datoo Then we would avoid till this con-*
fusiQii and be quite happy, or at least a
lit-cle loss puzzled. Thanks. Thanks a

Then, also, there are things familiar to those who attend.—
Like av/akin^i OJ^ the 2nd .morning to
hear rasp ire voice of Ducky Day, v/ith the
worst 'jcxd and sore throat we have heard
con years* Did you say baritone?

We have only a little to say of
Frannie Seymour* don't speak so loudly
over the phone after this, when the walls
are so thin«
The Doys* wrath wc.s most aroused by
tuat v/andcring Communitst, A1 Wheclca?, who
X-rofer.cd atting with, and dancing with ,
the ..ttachod girls to getting his own
dates.
It is also odd how so many people at
Columbia got lost, had no idda where they
were going, and didn't care; it was Q
good excuse.
Our most uuccesful
member was
Newt(Dori Juan) Ci'oss, who spent a
quiet
(?) evor.l.x^ at the movies with 3 (no loss)
of those tall, te.n, t^rriiic college
girls.
We have never seen such a cute sight
as "Had" Starkweather wandering through
the halls in his blue flannel bathrotofi;
He must prefer Princess st^'les, because
it certainly was fitted, (and up to his

Nq think Ecxl (Beuxiy Goodman) Goodrich and Goldielocks Farrington had the
best time Wednesday eve. Keed we say
more?
iinother scone v/hich will rt-main

discovered a cockroach v/as romning with
her.
Of course the hen sessions wore much
enjoyed by all,(especially in.Room 321)
although one rooster seesion proved to bo
rather eiMbarassing. Ask "Pencil" Scovil
if he»s "hap y about the whole thing."
Everyone enjoyed phoning Lois Hayner at seven in the .'.lorning because her
telephone was on the other side of the
room and Buck is cute v/hen she's mad (and
we dcnmean madl)'
Then there*s "Lincoln Zephyr" Schultz
who w .s ill after her big date with that
Romeo in West Englewood. Too bad, a.nd
she h .dn't seen him in two years, either.
