of the famous beard-pulling Amherst graduate, Harlan Fiske Stone, Coon, Ball, W. R. C. and T. F. T. by their dili- gence and covert editorializing, kept the STUDENT high in popularity on the campus, second only to Smith '58 in total sales. Blotters ran a close third. To an unprecedented extent the Letters to the Editor column became a public forum in which all facets of Amherst life from campus canines to the illegal rushing pamphlet were heartily de- bated. The CA again convened weekly, the DQ and the Zumbyes blended, and SCARAB tapped, admitting a worthy few to its esoteric midst. Williams Weekend and the Queen's Gambit ostensibly set the social pace, but fraternity gatherings and pig parties stole the show. An occasional Friday night turned out to be iust that, and the increased number of bonfire-rallies re- flected anything but a growing school spirit. That the spirit of generosity, however, was not completely drowned in extra halfs was demonstrated by Amherst's fine charitable re- action to Vic's fifteen-dollar loss. Midweek daters shifted from Rahar's to The Hatfield Club to the Williams House to the pit , finally finding one place that was not closed. Jefferson 8-8211 became increasingly popular as more and more undergraduates sought a wife, but the Phootrace continued to commence under the Smith College gates amidst kilted colines. A catastrophic blow was dealt to between-class socializers as two prominent campus figures, Kay and Gracie, transferred to more mature climes, leaving Walker Hall looking more drab than usual. The campus community mourned the death of gentle- manly scholars, and listened with respect as President Cole brought to light their accomplishments at Amherst and their innumerable contributions as Amherst citizens. Robert Frost continued to effervesce youthfulness, and his sincere interest in life convinced even the most dubious that spring had come, and that summer would follow.
