What with tours of the city, tests, calis- thenics. and other forms of initiation activity, few upper classmen had much of an opportunity the first week to ex- amine this species of educational amoeba called Freshmen ... It was only at the latter part of the week when the press of orientation had died down that the upper classmen were aware of the nu- merous strangers now inhabiting the campus . . . Director of Social Activities Jack DeMuth called the first meeting of the Freshman Class on Tuesday, Sep- tember 21st, with election of officers being the main item of discussion; and although 215 of the 309 members of the class art from Ohio, it was Pennsylvania which carried off the honors . . . Hardee Hepler, ex-Navy man from Butler, was elected to steer the Freshman Class through its initial year at Cap, while Gayle Korneke, also a Pennsylvanian, was chosen class secretary later . . .

SEPTEMBER 17 . . . this was the day when student met prof for the first time face-to-face . . . advisors, they were called . . . Each one insisted that no self-respecting student could ignore his particular courses . . . This afternoon, a chartered bus trip to points of interest in Columbus . . . state pen, city hall, libraries, state house—everything . . . For a change, supper was held picnic style in the stadium . . . Profs, clutching hot-dogs dripping with mustard and juggling coke bottles, mixed comfortably with seminarians and college students doing the same thing . . . Then back to the dorm to wipe off the ketchup and change into casual clothes for a gay evening in Loy Gym at the mixer . . . Everybody was feeling good this evening . . . Freshmen still wore their name cards, and the judging of the best ones was a high point ol the entertain- ment . .. Prizes and applause were awarded to the Freshmen with the most original cards . . . Rip Van Winkle and his juke box provided music for dancing . . . The Freshmen have by now lost their awe of the Sophomores, since they’ve concluded successfully most of their initiation rites without two much per- manent injury . . . SEPTEMBER IS . . . “The first Saturday morning at Cap! Cleaned the room, did the laundry, forgot the appointment with my advisor, was embarrassed. Thus reads the journal of one Fresh- man ... A lot of things to do today—odds and ends like paying the bills, filling out those horrible regis- tration blanks, forgetting to sign in ten places . . . Who makes up these things? . . .

Upper left and center: The Sophomores get wet as the tug-of-war progresses. Upper and lower right: Freshman-Sophomore Mixer. Jim Darnell supervises the winning line-up of name cards; and everybody dances on the gym floor. Lower loft: Frosh date night lineup, with interested spectators ogling the newly-paired couples.
