Automation reared its ugly head at the Given Road brain factory. Mr. Deane procured an I. B. M. data punch machine to teach Computer Programming, which caused a temporary panic among certain non-initiated facuity members, fearing for their jobs. Even calisthenics became automated with a new knee exerciser. The Stu- dent Council,.after a whirlwind year of inaction. got on the athletic automation band wagon by donating an isometric contraption, which sounds more mathematical than the data center. The Student Council performed another vital func- tion by agreeing to move the lunchroom trash can back, after a stormy session of parliamen- tary debate. . i WM w. rmwvo-wm The magic ma'rker strikes Ah ha, Checkmate! Rosen threatens to have Walker and Levineon arrested in a scene from MY THREE ANGELS. Jeffrey Rosen and Rick Vogel represented Country Day at the annual World Affairs In. stitute where they had their brains picked on Latin America. Eddy Schweitzer and Geoff Rasmussen attended a meeting of a different kind, a press conference for stariet Annette Funicello. Spring vacation brought much needed relief to the weary student body, save those seniors who spent it banging out Tenmdpaipers. Certain students not having enough ice and snow com- muned with the stuff on a skiing trip to Vail, Colorado, under the auspices of the Ski Club. Mr. Layson and Mr. Machen began recruiting for a trip too, a visit to the New York World's Fair and to Washington. All students, some nursing sore bones and bruised bodies from Vail, others with droopy eyes and exhausted fingertips, flopped into their seats to begin the homestretch between spring vacation and summer dismissal. The senior class study of the tragedy of Hamlet was culminated by a storming 0t Edge- cliff Theater to view a performance of the piay. Termupiapers in, they could settle down to a leisurely pace, reading the six books due for English book reports. Final exams gave the faculty another chance to shock a student body looking forward to those halcyon days of summer and a final op- portunity to titilate the intellects of the seniors. The seniors condescended to appear for final exams and let the faculty have their last fling. Ahead of the seniors now was only Com- mencement. This long anticipated event oc- curred the night of June 4th and was followed by the traditional all night revelries.

Braintrust figures out x in x+4:6 straighten out the business and personal pro- blems of the Ducotel family, headed by Steve Deupree a5 Felix The business problem turned out to be Jeffrey Rosen who drew the boos and hisses as the villain, Henri, while Peter Frank- lz'n, as his nephew Paul, was the personal proa blem. After rehearsal marked by such delights as falling scenery and the visit of an automobile inside the auditorium, the play was finally pre- sented March 13 and 14, to the immense relief of Messrs. McClarey and Gregory Also in the cultural performing arts vein, Maestro Brushts sing-alongwgang, known to all patrons of morning assembly as Tenors on Monday, basses on Tuesday, everyone on Thurs- day , or officially as Gamlbolfers, warbled in a combined concert at College Preparatory School. The double quartet, revived last year, also per- tormed at the affair. In the not-so-cultural vein, the SCROLL held a senlor Doll, complete with titles of rather dubious distinction, such as Best Bullslinger and Thinks He Is Class Playboyt Though certain seniors attempted to stuff the ballot box, the SCROLL brass claimed they had obtained a scientific result and wasted some space publish- ing it, Mrs Henry Arnold donated to the school f'lve works by five Indian Hill artists They were then hung to grace the walls of the Upper and Lower School buildings, along with the usual finger- paintings and Lao-tze signs. The freshmen, offered a seat on the dance committee, responded overwhelmingly. No freshman had the civic pride or masochism to sign Up for the nomination. The position was then offered to the senior cl-a55 whereupon half- a-clozen egocentrics, wishing to be on the com- mittee, beneficently offered themselves for the extra seat. A special election was then held.
