-.mv , ,QV FRE HMAN WEEK and the inevitable beanies. Most of the first day was spent in getting acquainted with room mates, neighbors and places of prime impor- tance on campus such as the post office and dining room. Monday, students started the day bright and early by standing in line for breakfast. After the welcoming speeches of the deans, lines formed for voice recordings, physical education examinations and other assorted tests. After these exhausting activities the evenings were found to be quite refreshing. Plenty of enthusiasm was left for the round of faculty-ab home parties, the campfire sing, the president's reception and the big swing-your-partner dance in the Fieldhouse where the bunny-hop was in- troduced to the Earlham community. Somehow enough free time was found to plan and rehearse for the big 3D talent show which climaxed the whirl-wind week.
