Swiftf The noisy IV's have finally calmed down UQ to sophisticated sophomores. This new aspect has been strengthened by the added attractions of sixteen new boarders, most of whom adore the little man, a haunter of the Boarding Department. Emphasis is placed, however, on the more dramatic aspects of life, accompanied by shrieks and screams, that take place outside of study hall. There one can View the products of Willett Home Industries and many dis- cussions about the all-important but ambiguously spelled mail-male! This hall, although not the scene of actual rehearsals, has been the stage for such historic acts as the founding of the Miss Fits, an octet of exceptional quality, and the naming of Rhombus. Many of our members are blessed with a passion for throwing paper in class meeting, where under the able leadership of Kate Motley, we have many heated filibusters about the new Class III dance, Jordan Hall, A.E.S.

Opening day in September found Class II with three new members includ- ing Donata Origo, our only furiner. We didn't fit very well into our alley by the chemistry lab, so we overfiowed into Miss Graffam's and Mrs. Wilson's rooms. These became the scenes of our various extra-curricular activities, lunch, avoiding study hall, deep, dark discussions fgossip sessionsj. A source of great puzzlement to the day girls was the disappearance of their sand- wiches. fSomebody who couldnlt stick to that starvation diet?j And then there was a peculiar appearance, that of an unusual species of boy at the Andover dance. The octet, formally known as the Madhatters, met regularly during lunch and under the expert coaching fslave-drivingj of Meg Tweedy it turned out three performances. But our radically new feature this year was the fre- quent mention of the word college The majority of the class seemed in favor of abandoning the whole business and living it up in Europe for a while-all except Smith or Bust Pam Prouty. We also began to realize that pretty soon we were going to attain our long-awaited position of Big Seniors, with all that prestige, power and the not-so-eagerly-anticipated responsibility. Perhaps some people have a few misgivings concerning the health, safety and general welfare of Concord with us in charge. Maybe welll surprise them. -Heidi Moss
