rf: rig sn? fr Eler Fieldhouse to Phases l,II,lII Registration was presented in two forms this year. In the fall, there was the traditional madness in the fieldhouse for is it fieldness in the madhouse ?J Anyway, there were the usual glassy-eyed stares, people running around paying library fines from '64, and entrepreneurs trying to sell you a Marriage and the Family card f you're not gonna let S10 stop you from graduating, are you ? J But '72 brought us a new-improved, poly-unsaturated, super-colossal registration. Thanks to the computer, you could leave the Dr. Schol1's foot pads, the economy-sized Excederin bottle, and the sleeping bag at home. . . now you could zip through Meredith in a mere half-hour. Or so they say. The Registrar's new operation consisted of these three phases of hopefully painless recovery and few fatalities. It's fairly simple: Phase 1: 3, OOO students sign up for Eng. 51, History 2, P.E. 10 and Psych., 52 Phase 2: 3, OOO students now sign up for Econ. 73, Poli. Sci. 73, Bio. 2 and Winetasting Phase 3: 3, O00 students now taking 6 hours report to the fieldhouse for registration. . . And Nero fiddles as Rome burns. Drake ingenuity triumps over evil. Now if you can just do something about the parking lot. . .

With institutionalized living on the way out and individual things on the way in, the Greeks have spent the last two years removing plaster casts and stretching elastic bandages in an effort to deregiment themselves. They must be doing their job well, because 650 virtuous freshmen descended upon 34th Street for the annual tea parties. The G-men noticed a slight increase in apathy due to the hot weather and CLEP tests, but on the whole the Greeks went marching on. . . and on. . . and on. . . in patriotic' style.
