Fashions and pretty smiles were the focus of attention as Georgianna Krehbiel modeled for the Womens Tea.

New room- mates, old friends, cluttered rooms, half-packed suitcases, constant chattering, and an irregular schedule perfectly describe conditions in the dormitories. Parties to get acquainted were held in the Stu- dent Union basement with crazy games and hot apple cider for refreshments. Long lines became the major complaint as students registered and tollerated beckoning stomachs. Formality came with the Faculty Reception which ended with informal visits to faculty homes. Still more introductions followed with a fashionable Women's Tea and a bean feast for the fellows. Dripping helplessly, a large crowd enjoyed the M-Club Watermelon Feed in the gym parking lot after an evening of talent scouted from the student body. Finally, marking the beginning of the football season, students danced through main street in their smartest Pjis grasping for air and hanging on for dear life. Mike Ziemann, Arnold Groff and Ray Hutchison found that the all school party was an ideal place to meet new people. Lynne Swanbeck practices the chow line cut on her friend Gay Morton.
