The evening the Theta Pi GET-ACQUAINTED PARTY At the beginning of each school year, the faculty of the Auburn Maine School of Commerce sponsor a party, at which time the old and the new students get acquainted and have fun. The l9Ll5f-L6 party was held atthe Seavey Cottage NCraig-Knolln at Crescent Lake. At this party, we were the guests of Mrs. Craig and Mr, and Mrs. Seavey. The day's outing started at recess when members of the faculty and student body ad- journed to private cars and an L a A Transit bus, and thence to dinner on the shore of the lake. The very famous chocolate doughnuts, as in previous years, were' the hit of the day. During the afternoon the main attraction was a softe ball game between the NPetes? captained by Evelyn Verrill, and the UReds,N captained by Barbara Scott. The final score was 28-19, in favor of the HRedsY Mr. Seavey served as umpire for the game. Committees appointed by Mrs. Seavey were: transpormr tion, Louise Rattigang games, Katharine Stevens, Evelyn Vcrrill, and Pauline Loperg and refreshments, Mary Bryant Jacqueline Hall, and Barbara Scott. INITIATION Sorority's new pledgees were initiated proved to be fasci- nating. Those charming young ladies looked grand in their night gowns and pajamas. The girls might well have been ready to retire, if it were not for the woolen sweaters and the slacks they also wore. The black polka drts very artis- tically applied by senior Smo- rity sisters to the faces of the unfortunate victims added the final dash. HALLOWE'EN Date: October 31, l9h5 Place: Kate J. Anthony ' House A Object: Hallowe'en Party The above is the vital statis- tics for the annual frolic when goblins and ghosts arise and walk the earth.

CANDLE-PINS Among the feminine popu- lace of this Institute, there are a few would-be bowlers. For a number of weeks, ten of the girls who remain at school for lunch often found them- selves in the -Auburn Alleys on Tuesday noon, there to try their luck. 'The results, good, bad and indifferent, are here- with posted that all may see the general averages.

P. Hall for the evening's frolic. For those who enjoy dancing, music was supplied by various name bands, a vie, and a supply of records. Mr. Maxim was, the winner of a rugged game of musical chairs when Evelyn Verrill and Mr. Seavey went down on the last round. ' I Thomas Stretton served as a very able postmaster, delivering valentines and salient remarks to blushing recipients. WSlams W and Usweetsn were read aloud amid the heckling of the male ele- ment of this place of higher learning. How three people can lead a Grand March and all in different directions was ably demonstrated when Audrey Wil- cox, Louise Rattigan, and Mr. Seavey got everyone rather confused. Never yet has an AMSC party been held without food and as usual the refreshment committee did a fine job. The committees in charge of the party were: box and decorations, Marilyn Anthony, chairman, Gabrielle Bilodeau, Thomas Drouin, and Clarence Smith, entertainment, chair- man, Barbara Scott, Bethelyn Sweatt, Dorothy Holmes, Ray- mond Bouchard, Paul Cosgrove and Thomas Strettong refresh- ments, Mary Bryant, chairman, Mary Poland, Doris Vachon, and Glenna Vye.
