Frosh Vlfeek Activities New talent, shoe-shine kits, kitten whiskers, the trek to the ' T and no dates initiated the Frosh. Frosh Week, which began Oct. 1, was designed to build spirit within the Freshman class. Frosh wore traditional beanies, blue and white socks and catered to whims of the upper- classmen by shining shoes and singing school songs for them. Rules were laid down by the senior class. In addition to the initiation, however, the class made the annual trek up Y Mountain for a fall clean-up of the huge emblem, presented a Thursday assembly and lived it up at a mid-week mat dance. The Mountain Lure dance at week ' s end was pre- sented by the studentbody to welcome the Freshman class into the growing Brigham Young University family. n J ' HILARITY AND FUN were the order of the day on the Frosh Assembly as is evidenced by Sloan Hales and Bob Ward (left). Moving off the main trail proves too much for tired Froshie as two stragglers move to- wards Y (above).

phonnore Loan Fund Vlfeek New method of royalty selection sparked Loan Fund Ball; assembly preceded profit-making dance Midnight Moods. Something new in the way of elections, or selections, was introduced at the 1956 Sophomore Loan Fund Ball. Instead of election of a queen, royal- ty was selected by drawing and a king and queen were crowned. Students had only to purchase a ticket at pre-dance sales to have a chance to win. Karen Leishman and Eddie Wells held the lucky ticket and were crowned at the ball. Wells received a set of cuff links and Miss Leishman was pre- sented with a bouquet of roses. Midnight Mood was the theme and pro- ceeds were donated to the BYU Student Loan Fund. The ball, which turned out to be the most profitable in 10 years, realized a profit of $375 for the expanding BYU Student Loan Fund reserves. EDDIE WELLS reigned as king over the Ball with date Karen Leishman as queen DUANE HIATT strikes a knowing pose. BEVERLY WHITFORD, Myrna Shurtliff, Larry Jenkins, Gordon Smith and Byron Fisher steered the Sophomore Loan Fund Ball to its success. IS SHE THE ONE? asks Richard Davis of Duane Hiatt in the Loan Fund Ball Assembly. 30 l ' WUijUl.u
