A View of tlie Cli anoint ampus The Montclair State College long-term campus construction program finally having been completed, left much mud, but also several new, expansive, and inevitably overflowing parking lots, not to mention the luxurious new classroom buildings, auditorium, gym, and student building. College High students were permitted to make greater use of these facilities than before. The older Spanish- style Administration building, with its clock tower, and College High School seemed in sharp contrast to the campus ' newly modernized appearance. As always, the sunny amphitheatre and mountain trails were popular in warmer weather.

COLLEGE HIGH Ten all-school dances were held this year. As usual, kings and queens were voted in, boosters told crazy tales, refreshment stands icere mobbed, and students maintained a safe danc- ing distance from chaperones. The most unique social event of the year was probably the an- nual Sadie Hawkins dance where most par- ticipants wore Bermuda shorts. The best- dressed couple is shown here. Football games drew large crowds this year, particularly when played at home on Sprague Field, with the new College gym presenting an imposing backdrop. Students, parents, and teachers took pride in the team ' s performances, and also downed large quantities of hot dogs and cokes. Two of the scenes shown here are of the McBurney and Collegiate games, the former, in particular, being a real highlight of the year.
