The quarter went on, friendships were cemented, mid-quarter exams were passed and the social calendar continued in full swing.

Much midnight oil was burned on those last few test days as students poured over books, some opening them for the hrst timeu You sweated over those two-hour farewells to your fall quarter classes and then it was all over. One-third ot' this school year was over. For the big story on the winter quarter turn to page 106. fall. . . Yes, college students have hearts for other things besides love. The annual Charity Carni- val proved it when you dug down deep into your pocket for those less fortunate than you.

The result was the most successful carnival in years. And as the grand climax to the faculty king and queen contest, Mr. Macias and Miss Buck sponsored by the phy- ed division were crowned. Those inimitable parties at Sear- ing Hall continued with record crowds. Highlight of the evening was usually a variety show during which these two shots were tal-zen. Marley I-lolte's musicians played at this particular show. Rapidly approaching now were hnals and the end of the quarter. At about this point you retired to the li- brary to complete last minute term papers. --Nur' 419 P yy I
