Attributing the year's financial success to the sale of Frosh Cards ot fall registration, the Class of '57, with over 600 students, possessed a bankroll of nearly S600 as the year opened, making if the best financially-equipped Frosh class in Poly history. After experiencing one of the best laid orientation programs in many years, the Frosh upset traditional standards by nipping the Sophomores in the annual Soph-Frosh Brawl. Paying the prescribed penalty, the losers maintained the Poly P during the year. In late January, the class sponsored a highly success- ful ' Polar Prom, despite the unseasonably warm weather. A large crowd, composed mostly of couples, attended the event. Serving as class adviser was Dr. Edgar A. Hyer, social science instructor. On page 7 arc four Frosh selected as having made outstanding activity records.
