■ What is a year at Lehigh outside the classroom? The byword of Lehigh ' s social calendar is tradition. The connotation of the word tradition in social practices is one of wholehearted university-wide partici- pation in a wholesome program of unadul- terated fun. This very connotation is, of course, abhorred by all, but, despite the voices calling for the abolishment of Le- high ' s regimented weekends, our main social events have not lost their appeal nor their variety.

rendous freshman mixers, the Tally -Ho, romantic frustrations on big week- ends. All this along with an incredible, almost in- tolerable workload. By the time of his graduation, the simplicity with which the Lehigh man once faced his future has been destroyed.

Houseparty (hence to be known as Spring Weekend) re- mains as Lehigh ' s biggest attraction. Parents are aware of the concert, the foot- ball game (in fall), or the picnic and the bed race (in spring). Some of the more liberal are notified of the cocktail parties, the band bashes, and the women ' s lodg- ings. But the really essential parts of the weekend are a mys- tery to all except those in attendance. No Lehigh man can be expected to give all the dope to his parents. Even his date is sometimes kept in the dark! 25
