FALL, FOOTBALL, FRIENDSHIP Help! Somebody, quick! It ' s slipping-g-g-g. Well, here we are Augie, complete with nine months supplies. It is September 18, and you, a freshman — a bundle of heredity and environment — have just arrived on the Augustana Campus. You have new clothes, you are receptive to new ideas, and you are ready to make new friends. Or maybe you are returning after a summer job; perhaps you came back early to help clean up Stu-U or just to get settled in your room and renew old friendships. Whoever or whatever you are, you are here ready to work and live in our Augustana society for the school year. People tell you to live it up and you do. You spend your Saturday afternoons at the football game and your Saturday nights at the movies or perhaps just taking a walk. You pledge or you rush, you drink coffee and find yourself on one of Augie ' s famous thousand and one committees. You collect memories of the chill fall evenings when you walk from the lib to the dorm after an evening of study and learning. Fall at Augustana is a mood; a feeling that will return whenever autumn leaves begin to fall. O.K. you kids, face the wall while I plug this arg !

One — Two — Three — Four ! The sophomores indulge in their annual bit of sadism. The Augustana Band presents Indian Summer with Indians. With fall also comes intramural football, and the Bos and Osos at the line of scrimmage.
