nf' 'ix V sb Yi, y -AA LL The concert, featuring Chad and Jeremy, turned out to be a great success too, although the group had a somewhat limited appeal on the stage. Unfortunately, the af- fair was made non-reserved and open to the public, so that em- barrassed faculty and students had to fight their way through the mob of local teeny-boppers and Sunset- strip types that had begun lining up at the doors early in the after- noon. However, once inside, most peo- ple found that they enjoyed the rest of the night, for the weak, slightly harmonized sound that the group produces is a popular one. Certainly the performance was a colorful end to a very pleasant eve- ning, though just a hint of the pag- eantry to come on the morrow.

On the Friday immedi- ately preceding the week of conferences and seminars, the Student Body, in co- operation with the adminis- tration, held a Twilight BuHet and a concert, fea- turing Chad 'and Jeremy. The bullet was a huge suc- cess, with the candle-lit tables filling the entire area between Chandler, Page, Winnett, and Firestone Qbottomj. Almost all the undergraduates QLes King and friend at rightj at- tended with their dates, an almost unheard of turn-out, and many of the faculty and Institute guests also enjoyed the excellent food. The mu- sic for dining was provided by four wandering min- strels. After the dinner, many of the more-than- eight-hundred guests made their way to Beckman Au- ditorium for the concert. 8 l But even as the football team was playing out its last games, other things were beginning to happen. For this year was the seventy- Hfth anniversary of the In- stitute, and the adminisrta- tion, aided by a student planning committee, had set up a week-long celebration of the event. Preceding the week of festivities was an Institute-financed dance in the Student Center. And then it was almost a Lost Weekend in October.
