Record number participate despite rainy Parents' Day Parents turned out in record numbers on October 14 for their special day at Hamline. There were 750 parents and guests registered, with 13 states represented including such distant points as Florida, Massachusetts, Louisiana, and Wyom- ing. This year a new dimension was added to the program- Hamline Beyond the Campus. Two sessions were held in the Ballroom to inform parents on wider educational possibilities. A session dealing with Hamline students abroad included dis- cussions such as last year's choir tour and the junior Year Abroad program. Exchange programs with southern and eastern schools were the topics of consideration by the other group. Also included in the day's activities were visits to classrooms, discussions with the faculty, luncheon, and a football game. At the general session in the morning, parents were welcomed by Congress President Dick Mittleman, followed with a greet- ing by President Paul H. Giddens, and selections by Concert Band and A Capella Choir. Though the day was wet and dreary, stands were filled as the Pipers played the UMD Bulldogs. Both teams battled, but penalties slowed the Hamline game as they came out on the bottom of a 22 to 15 score. Jennifer Partch and her mother discuss last spring's choir tour with Mr. Lowell Web- er at the coffee hour following the game, Connie and Randi Krinke and their mother make their way through the puddles to lunch at Sorin. y 5 f 'Qin .

Fourteenth Circle reopens, i hits finclnciol sncig midyeor Reopening enthusiastically for its second season of busi- ness the Fourteenth Circle, Hamline's coffee house, ran into financial snags midyear and was forced to liquidate. Under the guidance 'of managers, Eric Drucker and Mike Andrews, Hamline students were treated to performing groups in fall term, as well as special appearance groups. The Pozo Seco Singers visited after their concert in Norton Field House and later in fall the Danish Gym Team stopped in to see the evening entertainment. During winter term the coffee house was reorganized to establish a semi-coop, reducing prices on everything from food to memberships. Students helped themselves to food and were responsible for recording charges. This was an attempt to get more members interested in the Fourteenth Circle and to help a bad financial situation. Manager Eric Drucker commented that the coffee house's N original purpose was to fill an activity void on campus. He felt that other groups had made significant contributions in providing activities this year and that the need for the coffee house was not felt. A liquidating sale was held on April 25 and everything from ironing boards to paper napkins was auctioned as the Fourteenth Circle became a memory. Eric Drucker, auctioneer and coffee house manager, calls for bids on paper towels at the liquidating sale on April 25. Ernie Rose, Bill Snyder, and Steve Clark perform folk songs for a coffee House audience during fall term. ii . aa . sss ,,.. W .i-: . fxiiff-izzsa-aa i .. 1 my . r li- '

Queen Rhono crowned ot Homecoming Tolent Show Cobbers Go to Hull set the theme of a frigid Homecom- ing, with a full schedule of events from the afternoon of Oc- tober 26 to late October 28.

Awards went to Alpha Tau Omega with the theme of Cornival and Manor House with their Crib the Cobbers display. At the Talent Show Thursday night, emceed by former Dean of Students Donald R. Makuen, a variety of student skits and acts were presented. The panel of faculty judges awarded first prize to Norman Whiteside, second to the Goliards, and third to Carol Swenson. Between acts Makuen amused the audience with anecdotes of his days at Hamline and led the assembled crowd in songs. Climaxing the evening was the coronation of Queen Rhana Ugland sponsored by Tau Kappa Epsilon. Her court was Carla Anderson, Alpha Tau Omega, Nancy Anderson, Men's Resi- dence Association, Kris Armstrong, Off Campus Club, and Jennifer Bunce, Theta Chi. The 3 to 1 soccer victory over St. Thomas on Friday con- tinued the festivities on Norton Field. Those who were very hearty or very hungry remained at Norton for a steak fry supper, served by members of Alpha Phi Omega, despite tem- peratures which dipped to 150. A snake dance formed, winding through campus, and ended at a huge bonfire on Norton Field built by the freshman class. Coach Richard R. Mulkern introduced his football Pipers individually, warmed by the heat of the blazing fire and the rising spirits of gathered fans. Queen candidates Jennifer Bunce, Nancy Anderson, Carla Anderson, and Kris Armstrong surround newly- crowned Queen Rhana Ugland.
