June June July July July July July July July July July DAIJ Bu DAIJ THE LOG The calendar reads: Time to entrainf' The scent of pine trees hovers over Grand Central Station as we shake New York,s dust from our feet. Unpack all your trunks of clothes -and we bring order out of chaos, assisted by thumbtacks, movie heroes, and shoebags. The Whistles-and activities-begin. Our first campfire is indoors. Indian and impressive. Casserole makes its spinach debut. Hollywood's Little Men enter- tain Rondack's big and little women. Season's lirst upset upsets campers as councillors trounce the young uns in baseball. Yum! Yum! and he takes Uncle Sam and Rondack to a delicious Fourth of July candyland. The law of gravity disturbs Donna's pants and Donna's pants upset our gravity. The temperature soars to lOl. In the heat of our excitement We choose team leaders. Jeanne Tannenbaum is Dack's peach and dream. Bus Man Harriette Slote shoots 'em high and low. Frankie M. Wolfsie is the Ron Team's pride and joy and Carol Lewis is ever ready, ever true. We rate high at first services. Water, water everywhere as it rains all day, and We go swimming. Try letting a smile be your umbrella as it continues to pour! Oh, Chief, We learn our tribal destinies. Thank You, Doctor for an amusing evening. Campfire postponed. We no longer see the Point, as it lies under water. Tribes how-how in pow-wows. We trip hither and yon in Hrst excursions of the season. We return to find Clyde Beatty in the Lost Jungle.

The little senior girls put curls in the middle of their foreheads for their first senior dance. It's not the humidity, it's the heat! Team campfire is held at the beach. It begins to look like climate, not weather. In the evening, we thrill to the senoras and seioritas, as they seeng and dance in ze gorgeous Spanish night. Dacks triumph both in first Senior basketball game 16-11 and in the first track-meet 32-23. We have all sorts of time-including a won- derful one-at the Junior's brilliant performance of Clock Shop. Rons meet victory in swim contest. Seniors meet boys at Cayuga. We're old soaks now as it rains again. Our braves and squaws talk tom-tom and turkey in tribal conferences. From the heights of Mt. Pharaoh to the depths of Ausable Chasm we see the world. In the evening we feel like the Million Dollar Baby. Dack Juniors pack a wallop in punchball victory. Seniors eat fcookieslj, drink Cpunchlj and are merry at Senior night. We beat the heat and cool off by degrees in a long, refreshing swim. Our first tribal campfire eclipses in beauty and effectiveness the eclipse of the moon. It rains, and by now we don't care. We take our chances in a merry Salamagundi Party. Teams break even. Dacks track down a victory. Ron Sub-seniors sub -clue Dacks in basketball, 14-4. Tribes meet and swimmers do likewise. Dack mermaids have a stroke of victory. Request performance of Spanish night. lt Will Be All Right on the Night is so much so that we collapse with laughter. Tribes offer prayers in campfire competition. We awake and re- hearse for All at Sea. Colorful trips by bus, canoe, motorboat and sturdy legs-to a colorful evening with rough-riding cowboys in Blue Steel. Dack Juniors net one victory in volleyball. Senior dance makes Seniors' hair curl! Around the campus in a full day of activities. We begin to test our mettle. Ladies Must Dress -for operetta rehearsal in which camp catches flashes of gorgeous costumes and snatches of lively song. Picture that! and Shirley Frost wins the week's photo competition. All at Sea at last, a de luxe cruise in which Rondack's operetta stars triumphantly sail past all former triumphs. A high Dack day on land, a Dack day on the high seas-as they take both land and water meets. Seniors off again to inspect the scenery around Cayuga. Our braves tell tall stories in campfire legend competition. First Gag announcement as Mr. Chankin strings along three new precious pearls. lt's a good gag for Rona, Julia, and Connie.
