Spring Crazies A Little Nonsense To Break The Mohofoh y After months of cold, rainy weather, spring finally broke on the Emory University campus. Since most of the scheduled Spring events had been rained out, students took matters into their own hands. improvised celebrations, of an unusual nature, started springing up all over campus. 1 The Balloonihg Of The Quad Certain hours of the morning find most people still snug in bed and dreaming of summer vacations, but not those struck by Spring Craziesf' Assembling at 5:00 am. on March 29th, 4983, was a group of indivi- duals, who found sleep impossible on such a promising day: a group of people who planned to Balloon the Quad. The mastermind behind this caper, identified only as Tricia called her friends together and they met on the Quad to tie over 700 balloons to the trees, bushes, and chain link fences. When stopped by a security guard, one participant, alias Berke claimed the bal- loons were 'ifor the Spring Festival Qwhich, in reality, took place the next dayp. The guard allowed them to continue and complete their task. The reactions to this totally unexpected occurance were varied. Most people seemed to enjoy the bal- loons and a well known dean, alias ivlr. Bill could only stammer, I think it's just great! The caper was completed in scarcely two and a half hours. Production was delayed by overzealous, but helpful pigeons, who soon found out how insub- stantial ballons can be. To top off the mornings excite- ment, Tricia and her entourage retired to the Greek House for lots of food and hot beverages. At least, they have retired until the next time when Spring Cra- zies strike again. P.S. All those interested in helping balloon the Quad - Kara Bryant Trlcla Townes
