Augsburg Celebrates A Day in May n Friday, May 2nd Augsburg had its whoop-it-up all out finale to a trying nine months of hard work, — Day in May. The festivities began at 10:30 with a special convocation in the quad entitled The Pro's and Con's of the Pornography Ordinance in Mpls. Booths of all sorts were set up in the Quad and everything from French crepes, to giant helium bal- loons, and face painting were of- fered. Entertainment was provided by a one man band, Gary Parke — the roving juggler, and the cabaret sing- ers. About 3:00 the skies darkened and it suddenly started pouring.

The day ended with a pig roast and later much of Augsburg danced to the Flamin Oh's in the Commons. 26 Day in Ma
