'r Regardless of classification, return- QQ, ing teams or new, all students experi- enced many changes in the basic pro- gram of Tiger Traks. The greatest by Ellen M. Stevens change was that Tiger Traks was held in the fall rather than in the spring as wr in past years. The principal reason for the time change was due to calendar load, a heavy concentration of scheduled A activities, according to Andy Westmo- Trol. earring a corner on fwo 07.111 cg Cggbefr Cross skiiifuiiy rnanuevers W ee G ,Um The mire iaoes broughf new WOUQ ' r Q Wheeiin '. - meaning fo ine SDOW Of V' hue D hom by DQDO,-an Aronson reland, director of student activities. There was the concern that too many other school events were taking place during the same time as Tiger Traks. While planning the event, A sec- ond good reason for a time change occurred. There was the possibility of Tiger Traks being a good opportunity fofifreshmen to mix with upperclass- men. This was confirmed when half of the competing teams consisted of both freshmen and upperclassmen. It was also a good chance for transfer students to make new friends. Melissa Carelock, a junior transfer student, said that, Tiger Traks was a lot of fun, and I met a lot of people. The semester change had no affect on participation.

Girls took the initiative and paid the oills for a week of role reversal by Tonya Smith Girls' night out wanted to ask you, well you see . . . will you be my twirp date? Boy am I glad that was the fifth and final guy I had to ask out for Twirp Week. I had practiced that speech in front of the mirror and with my roommate for weeks and I still didn't get it right. At least it sounded better than with the other four guys I asked out. Asking people out isn't as easy as I thought. Well, at least the hard part is behind me, I hope. The B.S.U. really had it together. It may have rained on Monday for their hayride, but that ,didn't discourage them. My date and I had already discussed what we could do if it was cancelledg but when I walked into supper that evening, I read that the B.S.U. was going to have a haysit in the basement of Lile Hall. It was a perfect opening night for Twirp Week with live music and lots of visiting with friends. Tuesday night my date and I got a little wet, but it wasn't because of the rain. A few of the Gamma Phi's balloons from their ballon toss kind of got thrown in the wrong direction and we got in their way. Besides getting wet, my date and I were joined in unholy matrornony at Sam's Hitchin' Post, tossed horsesh- oes, had our fortunes told, ate candy apples and listened to some great singing by various students. The Gam- mas certainly know how to put on a fun Sadie Hawkins fair. Bobbysocks, ducktails, poodle skirts and bright red lipstick. It was obvious we had gone back to the 50's with the EEE's old Soda Shop. My date and I shared a coke float and listened to songs like Rock Around the Clock and My Boyfriends Back sung by the EEE's. It was a date just like some of our parents might have shared. Wednes- day was a night for memories. Contestant number three, what is your major? I don't know how many times we heard that question at the Zeta's Dating Game on Thursday. I wasn't sure at first if I should ask a date to it, but I am really glad I did because I had the security of knowing I wasn't trying to win a date. Finally on Friday evening after several minutes of preparation I was ready to go and pick up my date for the Chi Delta's A New Attitude banquet. Despite the pouring down rain all the girls looked beautiful and even my date managed to look sharp. It was a classy way to end a week of fun. Now that I look back on my entire week I'm glad I did it. I got to know five wonderful guys better and had a lot of fun. In fact now I am trying to decide who to ask to the Beta Beta Sunday night movie Kramer vs Kramer. Should it be the guy I had the most fun with this week or someone totally new? Maybe Twirp Week should come more than once a year. Careful aim.
