workers on the Jackson Gym and Bookstore took to shovel¬ ing snow to earn their day’s pay.

The Senior Soiree proved to be a bit of a puzzler, still provoking questions and comments on campus. The Seniors, supposedly well appointed with that j avoir faire , have yet to decide whether the comedian was bona fide, or trying to collect funds for some worthy charity. And those corn cob pipes! Freshmen wore caps to identify themselves, but after the Soiree, the corn cob was the ex¬ clusive sign of a Senior. Our last semester on campus has been as crowded as all Spring semesters are. The basketball team, after playing dismal ball during January, finally finished the season in something resembling a muted blaze of glory. The seemingly endless stretch of dances began with the Jackson All-Around club formal soon after classes began. Then there was the Leap Year informal and the Spring Sports Dance. The relief provided from this surge was poor indeed. Mid-semester exams were upon us. And then, after vacation, the long stretch began. Something doing every day. Nomination papers for elections had been turned in and voting was upon us. Student Council announced the rules and regulations governing this year’s Mayoralty cam¬ paign. Lambert-Kingsley Open House was held. The engineers were restoring their annual Open House. Junior Weekend came, and with it the announcement of the extra¬ curricular awards and election results on Junior Day.
