So Much For Study During TI-IE RITES GF SPRING Everyone Catches Spring Fever The alarm screeched its wake up call. I hurriedly turned it off and unwillingly opened my eyes. Something was differ- ent in the room. Could it be? I stared out the window in disbelief. Sunlight did in- deed pervade the room. A blue sky domi- nated the outdoors, and nary a cloud dared show its cotton candy feathery face. Below me, students scuttled to class, encumbered no more by down jack- ets and the heavy warm clothing winter demands of us. I could almost smell the coconut oil slathered all over bodies in an early attempt to produce THE TAN. Ah yes, I said as I rummaged through my closet and drawers for springtime wear, l've got the fever. Spring fever, that is. Anytime the sun shines in Atlanta during the winter months for more than two days, hope springs up from the depths of our cold weary hearts fand hands and feet and nosesl. When it rains incessantly, the con- stant tempo of rain falling lulls one to a reverie of those spring days of warm tem- peratures and sun. As the quarter ends and exams are ready to descend upon us, it's only the thought of spring break that makes us read those history pages of men Morris 8fThe Rites of Spring ,ps 4 , if g , -:s:.,.M vv, A fx .f,..lfzwf fr ' , , 4 ,,..,:,,,... .,.. , ,Mm U ' .jg 4, Ng.

lffdiflilfllif-,TER DAY UP, UP AND AWAY The sun shone clear and strong that bright Saturday afternoon as the third an- nual Campus Life sponsored Lullwater Day brought the Emory community to- gether. Originally scheduled for April 25, the event was rained out as we exper- ienced a few weeks of unusually cold and rainy weather, but the raindate of May 2 dawned without rain clouds. We flocked to Lullwater Park to eat, drink, and be merry. It was worth waiting in line for a 50c meal consisting of Ken- tucky Fried Chicken, corn on the cob, a baked potatoe, watermelon, and a soda. The Campus Life staff served the food. Emory Jazz Ensemble filled the area with music, and The Little General Clog- gets from nearby Kennesaw, Georgia, entertained us. Some of us even dared to accept their invitation to try a few steps. The biggest attractions were the two hot air balloons. The more adventure- some patiently waited in long lines for a chance to, for a few minutes, get away from it all. Those of us who liked where we were, preferred our feet on the ground, or were just plain impatient set up nets to play volleyball while the musi- cally inclined strummed their guitars. Cthers whizzed flying frisbees over heads and beyond outstretched hands and leaped high into the air or dived onto the sweet-smelling grass to catch that disc. We all enjoyed the beauty of Lullwater as we sat, played, sang, laughed, and ate. The special comraderie felt that day proves that despite what people say, we've got a school spirit. - Helen Bledsoe 1O!Lullwater Dav Vincent
