an w'f:Pf .uni Initiation Your subdued servant secretes the solemn seal of silence to say, LSalutations, most supreme, sage and superior Seniorsln' These unforgettable words set the tone for October 16, 1956, the day on which the tradi- tional initiation of the freshmen by the seniors was held. The football field, main scene of the action, was thickly dotted wih small groups of freshmen being monitored by two or three seniors through such classics as 'london Bridge and 'cRing Around The Rosyf' It was not un- usual to see several freshmen brandishing toy guns and rushing en masse across the field, while others were on their knees in the dust dutifully singing the Alma Mater, and still others were hard at work washing cars in the parking lot. This organized bedlam lasted for two hours. It was finally terminated in a session of Senior Court, where freshmen guilty of misdemeanors during the preceeding activities were punished with such imposing sentences as eating worms and pushing peanuts across the field. Thus ended the hazing of the class of '60, a class which earned the admiration of all for its good sportsmanship during initiation. Vic DeChett and Charles Neuhart are admirably per- forming their duties in the line of car-washing. Donit forget those hubcaps! Marie Citro, Terry McGhee and Meg Crane watch approvingly as the fresh- man go through London Bridge? These freshmen, led by Paul DeLueea and Richard Garreffa, seem to be plot- ting revenge. Wow, look at that shine! Ed Borkowski, Kathleen Burke, Pat Tonry, and Joe Scajfiddi deserve congratulations for their fine job.
