Coed Weekend... LEFT TO RIGHT: Don Williams, Men’s Little Wheel; Dick Hahn, Men’s Big Wheel; Melanie Fesler, Women’s Big Wheel; Eunice McMurray, Women’s Little Wheel. Co-ed Week End marked a change in events for the Indiana State lassies and laddies. Turn about was fair play and the co-eds took their turn when the etiquette was reversed and they opened the doors, held coats, and above all... paid the bill. On Friday night there was a cabaret held in the SUB Ball room with Mr. Bruce Hoagland, Sigma Phi Epsilon crown- ed Bachelor of the Year. This election was conducted for the first time as a complete cast of votes by the female student body. ; Saturday night marked the climax of Co-ed Week End with the annual Page One Ball. The announce- ment of the Big and Little Wheels, Miss Indiana State, and the corsage awards made the evening high- lighted with excitement. Misses Lynne Doyle and Marian Morgan were the recipients of the corsage awards for the cleverest and prettiest corsages made from vegetables and other various items of useless- ness. Miss Mary Ellen Schabel reigned as Miss Indi- ana State and Dick Hahn and Melanie Fesler shared the honors for Big Wheel. Don Williams and Eunice McMurray were named for the Little Wheel awards. 29 BACHELOR OF THE YEAR: Bruce Hoagland, Sigma Phi Epsilon.

Greek Week ee: Greek Week was “Go-Week.” March 22nd intro- duced a wheel of activities with a mass meeting of the organized students and a panel group which dis- cussed ways of improving Greek relations. Pot-luck suppers at the fraternity houses preceded auctions in which groups (sorority women) volunteered and were sold to the highest fraternity bidders. The girl’s services were exercised during Friday afternoon work sessions which look suspiciously like “Jam sessions.” Friday evening’s Greek Olympics included relays and races using handlebarless tricycles, powder puffs fashioned for flat heads, easily ripped sacks, and faulty roller skate straps. The week was climaxed in a Greek ball on Satur- day evening, and the announcement of Miss Sweater Girl, Mary Jo Swink, Delta Gamma, and the Laziest Man of the Year, Don Arney, Sigma Phi Epsilon. GREEK WEEK COMMITTEE — ROW 1: Lois Lambert, Alpha Omicron Pi; Melanie Fesler, Alpha Omicron Pi; Sharon Winters, Chi Omega. ROW 2: Jane Ann Fleming, Delta Gamma; Barbara Williams, Sigma Kappa; Jo Harmon, Delta Gamma; Judy Hill, Gamma Phhi Beta; Rita Green, Delta Gamma. ROW 3: Jack Knight, Tau Kappa Epsilon; Bill Izor, Tau Kappa Epsilon; Ron Zuk, Sigma Phi Epsilon; Larry Lyons, Theta Chi; Gary Hallandbeck, Alpha Delta Epsi'on; Frank Whalen, Theta Chi. The Greek Week Ball was an exciting climax to a wonderfully new week at Indiana State.

Miss Indiana State... Lovely Miss Mary Ellen Schabel, Chi Omega, was duly honored at Coed Weekend when she was se- lected Miss Indiana State at the Page-One Ball. The radiance of the occasion was only fitting to the atmos- phere of the ball. Selected on the basis of outstand- ing scholastic achievement, service to the school, and personal appearance, the faculty made the selection. Candidates submitted two pictures, one in a drape and the other in full length along with a list of cam- pus activities in order that they might be judged. Misses Helen Eikenberry, Zeta Tau Alpha, and Marcia Kelley, Delta Gamma, were attendants to the 1958 Miss Indiana State. The crowning of Miss Schabel and the introduction of the court was one of the climaxing points during the week end. MISS INDIANA STATE: Mary Ellen Schnabel, Chi Omega. It was an exciting moment for the lovely queen! aon, ae Sa eee ey 30
