Seniors Win First Place At Hootenanny To raise money to defray some of its “Operating Expenses Ihe STUDENT COUN- CIL sponsored a HOOTENANNY in January. The response was enthusiastic. ADELE SCAFURO was EMCEE for the affair, and characteristically perfectly at ease in the role. There were some last minute changes in the program, but ADELE handled them as if they were routine. To be certain that the JUDGES would not be swayed by “class loyalties” they were chosen from those Faculty Members who arc not Class Advisers. The Seniors were awarded first place. In the picture at the right. B. JURGENSEN. C. JONES and L. VON OEHSEN are singing Winchester Cathedral. Other Se- niors who performed were D. CHUDY. M. L. GORMLEY. E. BECKETT and E. CULLIGAN. who played guitars and sang, and M S. GLESPEN. M BELL. C. POPE. M. RUGGIERO. E. FORD. E. PEREIRA. R. FEENEY. C. MERZ. P REHM. A. CHISHOLM. P PRIAL. J ABBADESSA. E. DOHENY and L. NELLIGAN who sang. One of the reasons for their “First Place” was certainly the fact that so many Seniors participated. For their final number the Seniors chose a medley of southern folk songs. Both Senior Classes were well represented, in the group with blackened faces who sang and danced, and in the group that sat at one side and sang with them. 60
