activities ore dancing, coking, theater-going The library gets its share of student daters, with busi- ness especially good when boy meets girl at 9 p. m. on week nights. Varsity O queen Arlene Gamertsfelder comes through the O with Sam Robinson. Queens are an integral part of major college dances on this and other campi. Ohio ' s beautiful campus provides ample room for date- study combinations. Here, Jeanne Taylor and Ted Winston make a novel approach to erudition. Jitterbugging has its place in dating behavior, although interest in swing has waned a little this year. Dottie Wagner and Ace Parker help keep jive alive.

DATING: Ohio ' s best-liked extra ■curncular rinciple factor in a college student ' s important social training is dat- ing, which offers unusually varied activities on the Ohio campus, although the college town of Athens seems at first to provide but limited fa- cilities. A graduate thesis (filed in the Chubb library) on spare-time activities of OU students is concerned largely with the many dating pro- grams and ideas evolved by students. Chief ac- tivity, of course, is dancing, Ohio ' s favorite in- door sport. Since the demise of the Big Apple, campus dancing has become reasonably graceful, requires less energy. Although no novel dance has yet inherited Big Apple honors, some ob- servers feel that concern for a difficult world situation point to a sudden upturn in swing fana- ticism. On this and the following pages, you see repre- sentative campus dating activities and techni- ques. Athens ' two theaters do well from student trade. George Edwards and Juan McSavaney i-ank the cinema high among favorite dating activities.
