Sally Schumucker Smash drafts dates for uSpinsters The annual Spinster's Spree took place March 19-21. The weekend was titled the Sally Schumucker Smash and plans were set up by an anonymous committee. Since EC's computer had been eagerly chewing up the business records, it was decided that Fate herself could do just as good a job by means of the first land probably lastl all-school draft. Think of what terrific lor terriblel combinations were possible! There was a pre-registra- tion list where the girls could pre-enroll their particular date for the weekend and thereby miss the thrill of letting Fate cast their lot. There was also a ShrinkingViolet list reserved for the boy or girl who might have had reasons to miss all the action. The lottery draft was held on Friday afternoon and one of the cafeteria conference rooms was con- verted into a marriage court where couples could be married for the weekend. The events for the weekend included a concert by the Evangel College Concert Band on Friday evening. Saturday's events included a Circle K consolation basketball game between Dorm 70 and Independents with Independents com- ing out on top. The guys especially en- joyed the special treatment they received at the Daisy Dinner in Crusader Hall. The events closed with the Circle K Tournament Championship game be- tween Dorm 67 and Krause 1 North. Dorm 67 was the champion team. The Sally Shumucker Smash was one of the best Spinster Spree's ever held at Evangel. More students were involved in the events because of the lottery. Looking back on the great activities of the weekend, we can only say that we have changed the name of the Spree to the Successful Sally Schumucker Smash.
