hallowe 'en N 'rms GLORIOUS OCCASION, NYE sAw 'rule Br:'1 l'ER sims ot' our handsome mem- bers. Creative genius and sheer artistry touched with imagination took us from our books as we put on our costumes and made up for the party. During' the course of the meal, served by the staff, many of us looked at each other, laughed, sang, and had a generally good time. Once more the impresario of Alouette , Garry Price, higrhlighted the evening' with his rocking version. As far as the costumes were concerned, the Beacon QFDLSJ won the most applause with his creation, specially designed for the occasion. The focusing point of the evening' took place on the stage, where future valuable N.B.C. property, namely Silent -lack Posluns, gave various perfected noises-he's not the only one around here, but he's the first, and that's something. The skits were well executed by staff and students, and it was hard to tell which happy little group did the best, but terrific ,jobs were done by all. Also, the Talented Few swaying' with their B2lll1lJ00-Bllllgill0W and Five-Foot-Two rocking' versions, were well done. This writer's choice for the niost versatile student, Brant XVilson, grave an interesting pantomine of Chloe , again well done. Then on the screen came Lloyd Bridges and Moira Lister in the 'limping' Man , a release of some two years pastg this climaxed the evening: All told this year's Halloween was one of the Best Times ot' the Year, and it is hoped that more of the same calibre will follow. -Dox Hixxms Nineteen
