Came the Fall, and Triple Cities College for the fifth time opened its doors to a new and shiny group of freshmen. Not far behind this mass of un-- developed gray matter came another eager animal of note, also seeking a higher education. This was Teeny Squeegeu, the ueddicated mouse . Our tale deals with Teeny Squeegen and his adventures at TCC. Teeny Squeegen was very greatly impressed with the Freshman Convo, and he, along with approxi- mately 250 others, entered the massive doors of the Colonial imbued with high ideals-so high that they carried him to the second floor lounge where a vigor- ous card game was holding forth in the hands of four seniors - eeny , meeny,', miny , and schmoe . Teeny liked this room. It was friendly- and not only that, where else could he hear all the campus news and views, without plowing through tz Colonial Newf? He didn't know the fellow yet, but he was glad to hear that Camille Roach had become TCC President. It was also nice to know that twenty-one new ap- pointments had been made to the faculty-as far as he could deduce Qcorrectlyj this meant exactly twenty-one more assignments per student. Not that he was sure just what it meant, but he readily agreed with Dave Garman that a four to one ratio was much better than the pioneering days of '46 when nine to one was the status quo. School spirit soared high in his little heart, and Teeny watched with avid interest the progress of the Goliard clothing drive. One could hardly see his cold little nose .ro well war it hitltlwz beneath the oltl clothe! . . . Teeny's tiny ears were still very receptive the hadn't been subjected to History and Usage of the English Language yetj, and on one of his jolly jaunts down faculty lane he overheard a delightful little conversation between Miss A. and Mr. H. 'bout a delightful party held at the former's home for all faculty eligibles the night of October 15. Teeny, perceptive little soul that he was, considered it quite thoughtful of them fthe facultyj to so fortify them- selves before braving the thousand odd Phi Beta Kappas fthe studentsj at the Student-Faculty Recep- tion later that evening. Teeny was soon to hnd out that this was quite a common occurence among the intellectual circle-especially during Zero Week when finals are in full swing, owl party har no ftznlilitzz' ring for the ,rfiltlelzt . . .

Still surveying the situation on Grub Street tEnglish Department Habitatj, our little hero learn- ed that Nissel Rose was going to head the Worltl Student Service Fund drive, that Clark Hungerford had become editor of the Colonial News, and that Gerry Bloom had won an A in history for her feature on Mr. Lutz in the college's spasmodical periodical. Teeny thrilled to this intellectual com- munication of minds on a higher level . He also uncovered the fact, another news headiiner, that we've got something . That made him very happyf now all he had to do was find it! Eager to depart from the somber intellectual atmosphere that from force of habit was' beginning to envelop him, Teeny Squeege hastily scurried after Bob Bargetzi fquite the pace setterlj who was on his way to the presses with In and Out of the Locker Room . Quickly glancing over the copy paper the was now enrolled in Remedial Englishj, Teeny read that Frank Rury had been elected President of the Pin Topplers, that the Bonecrushers had battered Baccacia by a 38-7 score, that Edie Scales had become head cheer leader for Coach Welborn's active ath- letes, and that joe Ludka and Yatchal' Logan were rfill rearing high for Ike Green and lVl9ite 110 gan. Following this mental exertion, Teeny once more scampered off to meet new and greater adventures in the Grand Central Station of the Colonial, more commonly known as the student lounge, where he was soon to find out if one's friend were not in the local bistro, book store, or card room, thats where he was. In his new and bewildering environment he found another friend, Ralph Forest Qlater to become editor of the Colonial Newsj who informed him that the first graduating class at TCC had organized, and that the fifty-four members thereof would graduate under the Syracuse University banner . Teeny's little eyes fairly popped when Ralph told him about the Pandoran Sadie Hawkins dance at Lakeview lnn where nothing .rfronger tlaazu mee and gin were the order of the ezfeflifzg. So many little things pleased Teeny-like the time Jerry Gibbs won the first annual Baccacia scholarship award, the Fall Fling at the Legion, the Biz Ad Spook'l Dance where wierdies and ghosts were the gzzzriozzr bor!! at that joyom Hazlloweezz event. Yes, little Teeny Squeege really loved college life and was filled with the constant desire to do every- thing in his tiny power to better this wonderful new home of his. Usually, he was quite happy about the course of events, but one day fafter a particularly trying class in Business Lawj he received a bitter disappointment--the Goliards would not take a quart of blood from him for the community blood bank. Teeny was very disheartened and slowly, with bowed Qzbfiwl .fr ae 'Q S ' , .S ,, , . Q 7' --16 ,':1 .. .wif
