Festivities began semi-formally at Whippany's Birch- wood Manor Friday, November 16, with sounds provided by the Fireflies and the Dovells. Things took a more formal turn the next evening with the music of the Dennis Salokey orchestra in the University Center. The decora- tions had a nostalgic flavor, consisting of some outstanding memorabilia of the class of '63, and Dean Weatherby dubbed senior Jack Hawke King of Fall Weekend. Jack and his queen Grace Leoser, along with the King's Men : Bob Fenstermacher '63, Chuck Carlson '64, Bob Sarr '64, Scott Bickell '65, and Gary Ruppert '66, enjoyed a pleasant reign until the conclusion of the evening. The only grim note was sounded when the aH'air was followed by classes the following Monday. ,. W5 V a 5 I2 V , Q - 2 The Dennis Soloky Orchestra, performers at the Formal.

PRI G WEEKE D A continental flair mixed with a distinct French atmosphere and the flavor of gay Paris were the basic ingredients in the 1963 Spring Weekend Plaisir d'Amour. Setting the pace for the weekend was the informal dance on Friday evening Moulin Rouge. In the true French fashion, the coffee shop and multi- purpose rooms of the,Student Union were transformed into an intriguing Parisian sidewalk cafe, complete with the characteristic checkered tablecloths, candles in wax covered bottles and French prints - perhaps even painted by Toulouse Latree, the famous prodigy of the Parisian Moulin Rouge. Saturday the pace quickened with co-ed sports events, a bus trip to New York, and an afternoon jazz concert in the quad- rangle. The climax of Spring Weekend, however, came with Saturday night and the formal ball. Versailles,' was the theme as couples passed through the gym doors into a Louise XIV chateau and a completely transformed Baldwin Gymnasium. Es- pecially memorable was 'cVersailles for Geri Snell, who was crowned Queen of Spring Weekend Saturday Nite. But the spirit of Spring Weekend did not stop there. The flavor 2. gay Paris was even carried over to Sunday with a delightful continental breakfast in the morning and an Open House in all the Women's dormitories in the afternoon.
