Anyone with a 10:45 appoint- ment can come in now! rang a voice from the front, and the guy who just rolled out of bed and threw on his sweats swaggers ahead of all the early risers. Waiting in line and filling out forms was the stan- dard procedure for the wide-eyed freshman and the sophisticated senior alike. A total of 5,601 students registered for the fall semester this year. Excuse me, but could you tell me who to talk to about getting into Business 121 with Dr. Valentino? The Old Gym was set up in its traditional maze-like system of numerous stations. Trying to get all the classes a student wanted proved to be a real challenge. Theology 119, section C (c-a-t) has now been closed! Once a student ' s cards were pulled, he could breathe a sigh of relief, and tend to matters of greater consequence than classes and G.E.C. ' s... How would you like to buy a movie pass?

Creighton greets with active week Ask any freshmen: New situations are seldom easy to confront. Transition into college life can be smooth, however, given a little guidance and chance for involvement. Welcome Week began this transition for Creighton freshmen. It was coordinated by Arts senior Bob Burg, and planning for it began last February. After moving into the dorms on Monday, the freshmen mingled with other students and faculty in Jesuit Gardens. Later that evening, an ourdoor dance drew the freshmen out of their dorms and on- to California Street. On Tuesday morning Fr. Creighton and other faculty members welcomed the new students. After- ward, the freshmen were introduced to their group leaders; later, these same group leaders encouraged them to part with their money at Casino Night. Thursday, the freshmen tackled what would be a recurring college ordeal: registration. The Group Leader Show that evening provided the necessary relief. The Phi Psi ' s coached the freshmen in picnic games on Saturday. A bluegrass country concert, a midnight mass in St. John ' s and an all-university lec- ture by Sen. Mark Hatfield (D-Ore.) concluded a busy week. At top, the Saga Witch of the West, Arts sophomore Sue Belatti, spurs on a diabolical c an. Above, tight quarters add to the tun of a pool party.
