THIS BUSY regisfrant is only beginning the series of checkers. He has long forms to look forward to and the possibility of having one of his classes closed before he gets his IBM cards. BEWILDERED STUDENTS find a word of advice from Father Shanahan as they trudge along the never-ending lines having their schedules forms, and IBM cards checked, rechecked and checked again. Registration Causes TELL ME when you see your eyes in the camera. Click. Your picture has been taken for your student identification card.

WELCOME WEEK Is about over and the process of buying books and supplies must start. This means a crowded bookstore and a rush to get there before one of the needed textbooks has been sold out. HELPING some new students pre-reglster Is Father McKenny, Assistant Dean of the College of Arts and Sciences. The next step for these students will be the hectic job of registration on Friday. Freshmen Find Welcome Week Busy, But Fun New faces and new friends were the scene of Welcome Week as Freshmen descended upon the dorms, bag and baggage. Day-hops and boarders met for get-acquainted sessions at the Student Center. Newcomers found fun, food, and an in- vasion of mosquitoes at the Frosh Picnic. Before the first textbooks were opened, stu- dents-to-be attended mixers and pre-registration conferences, and boned up on college do ' s and don ' ts at orientation assemblies. FRESHMEN COEDS are getting a little helpful advice from Mrs. Hamilton, Dean of Women, at her tea for Freshmen girls. Seems like at this point, however, Mrs. Hamilton and the girls are distracted. GEE, this Is a pretty good dance. I just might ask that girl over there to dance. Welcome Week mixers always seem to draw a large crowd and to serve the purpose of getting new students acquainted. 15
