Greek Week Action Rain-Shortened Squeezed between the books and May Sing practices, Greek Week added yet another dimension to Greek and campus lite. From Monday ' s relay races to Sunday ' s May Sing, competition and good fun reigned. There were the usual tricycle malfunctions, colds from apple bobbing, dramatic Softball catches, and the beautifying of the campus. But added to all this was the constant threat of rain which eventually cancelled the picnic and rope pull. Delta Zeta and Lambda Chi Alpha claimed first places in May Sing. Nancy Glover, Ken Inskeep, and Jim Price were chosen as Outstanding Greeks, DZ Ellen Richert was May Sing Queen. Saturday morning was campus clean-up time. Elizabeth McDonald, ABOVE, and B. B.

The illness peaked upon the return from a week in Florida, Texas, or home. The seven weeks until summer loomed ahead. Activity on the Mall increased. The books came outdoors with the Frisbees and suntan lotion. Elsey, Cline, and Bryan beach populations swelled to capacity as people hit the sand. The Wright Brothers entertained Spring Fever night after Horseshoe refreshments during the day. Student Congress added to the Spring hysteria with an unprecedented Spring Fling Day. Greek Week, Franklin Follies, and Finals came much too quickly. And, in a bewildered voice, people wondered where the second semester had gone.
