OLD PROS — Clabe Hangan, a former student, and Rusty McNeil entertained in assembly. Sing... Sing... IN TUNE with the rest of the world, students at RCC were caught up in the hootenanny craze. Folk songs provided the principal fare at not one, not two, but three assemblies. Students hummed them in the Guad, and all you had to do to get an impromptu sing going in the Pit was to show up with a guitar or a banjo. Some old fogies took a dim view of the modern ver- sion of old-time music, but more tolerant ob- servers of the campus scene allowed as how it was a sight better than some of the shenanigans they had viewed in the student center in earlier years. No matter, students who never before had thought of themselves as musical continued to beat out eulogies to Big John, Tom Dooley, and the Zombi Jamboree. In the meantime, the College Choir continued to sing All Praise to Music and Weep, O Willow! And sales of Bach, Beethoven, and Brahms records in River- side music stores showed no appreciable decline. PARODY — Having fun at the expense of the hootenanny set are Emmett Ford (dapper as usual), Paul Marko, Gloria Flowers (no Joan Baez, she), and the irrepressible Mike Goldware.

And The Rains Came CHANGING WEATHER - It is truly remarkable how an entire campus can change just because of a little damp- ness. As the rains come down, a gorge is formed where the path to the park- ing lot once existed. Date Processing becomes a swimming pool, the streets a river, and the pathway behind the Poly Music Building a mud-slick ob- stacle course for students on their merry way to class. The mood of the campus becomes one of complete hysteria or of patient resignation. 11 Mil 1 1 FORDING Fairfax River, Carol Olson and Nora Harris find the way treacherous. VICTORY — Ann Dean well knows the meaning of the word as she wins her way to dry land, leaving Tim Bowen to cross the mud alone. totf4Wr9b i .
