msec, L ticipated in a Fete-sponsored can- dlelight march in memory of the fatal shootings at Kent State. The marchers moved through campus, singing or chanting peace slogans. City and university police cleared traffic to allow the marchers to walk peaceably curb-to-curb. A new event, canoe jousting, flee. entered in the Fete activities. lt calls for a jouster, standing in the front of a canoe, trying to knock his opponent off of his canoe with a paddle. This event was opened to women's participation, along with tugs and softball, for the first time in lVlay Fete history. The all-school picnic was rein- It seemed as if almost all of IVlay Fete was put into one big event--the all-school picnic. lf you were there, you saw paiama races, the sky- divers, tugs. If not, you just about missed lVlay Fete. The only thing I saw was a preliminary softball game once in awhiIe. stated after a year's respite, and in- cluded an all-new skydiving exhibi- tion. NlU's Sport Parachute Club staged a 7,000 foot jump before 4,000 picnickers at the lagoon. Over 3,500 hand-clapping fans helped Smokey Robinson and the Miracles to close the 1971 lVlay Fete festivities on a good note.
