Joe sleeps lote Saturday morning and eats a leisurely breakfast at Skibo; afterwards he walks down Forbes Avenue to Carnegie Library and returns some books. From there Joe heads for the Scaife Gallery in the Carnegie Museum of Art, and takes advantage of free day at the museum to wander through the exhibits. From the museum Joe rides a PAT bus downtown where he shops at the Bank, a mall in the center of town-. After window shopping for a while Joe finally catches a bus for CMU late in the afternoon. Joe and a friend dine that night at C.J. Barney's, an inexpensive Oakland restaurant, and take in the current CMU Opera production, noting smugly that tickets for the performance were only $2 each. Joe and friend take in the late show of SDC's movie after the opera for only 50 cents and afterwards head for Flagstaff Hill in Schenley Park. There is still plenty of snow and hordes of students are already traying. Sunday morning Joe eats another late breakfast and goes into town to take advantage of his $20 student discount season ticket to the Pittsburgh Symphony. After the concert, Joe has a hamburger at Wendy's and catches a PAT bus home for a quiet evening of studying. 17

An annual event since 1920, the theme for this year's Carnival was Countries. Thursday's Midway opening sow the usual host of rides, plus, as some stated, the most colorful Midwoy I've ever seen. The booth depicting England, constructed by the brothers of ZBT, was awarded first place in the competition for fraternities and, the sisters of KKG took the first prize among sororities, with their depiction of China in their booth. CIA presented Argentina in their award winning booth, among the Independents. From the opening of the Jazz concert and the standing room only crowd for Michael Marlin to the closing of the semi-formal dance, the SDC tent was another major center of activity. Everybody was into the spirit of things, said Jon Stefanacci, Carnival chairperson. Though no one showed up for the plank joust, probably because it conflicted with the SDC Gong Show, the other events went well, Stefanacci said. The egg toss wos won by the team of Carol Nemetz and Robert LeGatta. Last year's winners of the reloy races appropriately named themselves The Defenders this year. They bore out their nome as they won the relay. A six-mon team of ATO brothers took the tug-of-war crown.
