AFTERNOONS SPED BY Afternoons were always different. Some of us left school and went immediately to work, but most of us had time on our hands. It was time that should have been spent studying, but it was time that was mainly used for bull sessions, walks along the canal, catching a quick nap (if it had been a rough night before), and refreshment hours. Some afternoons the only knowledge absorbed was that a black three a was a stop-card. Canasta was the craze! . Some spent frantic p. m. ' s sweating out labs; some labored for hours on organization projects. Around Easter, the campus was turned into a field of mystery for the Y.W.C.A. Easter Egg Hunt. Coeds scampered all over the place scramb- ling for eggs. But the boys outran the gals and came up with the golden oval worth $5.00. Many afternoons were spent in preparation for the Sigma Nu kite flying contest. Soror- ity girls struggled to make gigantic masterpieces only to find that some combinations of paper, wood, and string wouldn ' t leave the ground. The crowd jeered and yelled at the un- fortunate ones, until strong winds finally assured success. Every inch the kites rose, they were encouraged by cheers from the onlookers. Faces fell when the kite of their choice slumped, if only for a second. These afternoons were full of excitement. Club meetings usually took place before the twilight hours. There was the business side — the forums, the money-making plans, the elections of officers — and there was the funny side. At first it was a little bit surprising to see Indians roaming the plains of Fair- view, but we became pacified when we realized Utes was having an initiation. And so our afternoons went. They were spent in work and play, In solitude and com- radeship. These were the golden hours of our university day.
