Once again during the second last week of January the University was turned over to the students and King Karnival reigned supreme. What more appropriate theme than Klondike Days for a winter Karnival and so for a week the University went back a hundred years and relived the excitment of the gold rush days. Because of the lack of male enrollment in our course and a similar lack on the female side of Ryerson Architecture we decided to join forces, with us supplying the princess, Gloria Balon and the ideas and they, the prince, Bill Rankin and th e physical labour. Events got off to a roaring start January 15th with the Foresters ' dance. As we are all aware, anything sponsored by the Foresters usually goes off with a bang. On e of the highlights of the evening was the crowning of King Karnival, Dennis Wallace. Entertainment was supplied by the Manchester Riddle and the Pawn Brokers. Saturday saw one of the major events of the Karnival, on the road-literally-with the Winter Karnival parade. One of the highlights of the parade was a float with a log cabin right out of Klondike Days. Needless to say, it was our float. Seven hardy souls including one representative from Ryerson Architecture, braved the cold weather and rode on the float. Tt is auite possible that the cold weather was too much for the judges and they didn ' t stay ' till the end of the parade since our float was not listed among the winners; an oversight on the judges ' part no doubt Other events which high lighted the day included a sky-diving exhibition, basket- ball games and a Tom Noel concert. Sunday brought with it an International Dinner open house and an International Show. BILL RANKIN GLORYA BALON Tuesday, January 21 saw the judging of our superb snow sculpture — an obvious choice for first place, unfortunately the j udges didn ' t see it that way. Artsmen and Engineers places first and second respectively. Mitch Ryder, Monte Carlo Nite and the French Club ' s Wine Cellar were the other events of noteworthy interest. On Friday, January 24 activities commenced at 12 noon with the Last Chance Saloon featuring a honky-tonk piano player and chorus girls starring two Library Technologists — Marilyn Morrow and Carol Fallon. Concluding the activities of the day was the Torchlight Parade through the two cities. The formal on Saturday evening featuring Art Hallman and his Orchestra was climaxed by the crowning of the Queen, Donna Pace. Enthusiastic technologists with the help of Ryerson Architecture displayed their ambition and talents during Winter Carnival. Special thanks to Mrs. Hill (we hope she got the paint off the floor), Regatto Con- struction and Northern Wood Preservers for their assistance.
