Each department set up displays and ex- periments to show off its best points. E-Day is an event sponsored by Blue Key and is con- ducted solely by the students; instructors merely advise. The visitors saw such things as a 100,000 volt zapper, a eun which never misses its target, and a modern weapons display. After the formal tour of the building was completed, the euests were served dinner by the school and also invited to attend Rose Poly’s final home football game against Prin- cipia College. Blue Key members Al Jannasch and Rick Rapson helped register the visitors, as Mr. Lee kept things lively.

Everyone had an enjoyable evening. MILITARY BALL All ROTC cadets were given the opportunity to impress their dates with the military side of Rose Poly on De- cember Ist at the annual Military Ball. Prior to the dance, SAME members were invited to a hanquet. Here. the students ate and talked with the faculty members who were present as either chaperones or honored cuests. After the meal, President John Logan gave a short speech about Rose. The dance began promptly at 9:00 PM in the May- flower Room of the Terre Haute House. A few minutes later, the cadets were asked to line up on either side of the floor with their dates by their side. The Rose Rifles then marched out and formed an arch with their sabers.

The music continued until the traditional O’Grady Drill. All the cadets formed en masse in the center of the dance floor and were commanded by Battalion Commander Andy Spangler. After employing several trick orders to weed out the bulk of those entering, Cadet Colonel Spangler continued until only Cadet Corporal Jerry Copenhefer was left. He was then declared the winner of the drill competition. The high spot of the Mil Ball was the election of the Honorary Cadet Colonel. Each cadet voted for his choice at the beginning of the dance from those who were nomi- nated by each individual company. Miss Kay Saxton, a jun- ior at Indiana State College, was voted the winner. She was awarded the medal of her rank and also a small red ele- phant. Miss Saxton was escorted by Cadet Sergeant George Wagener. At the end of the dance, everyone heartily approved of the effort put forth by the Military Department in spon- soring the colorf ul affair.
