COTTONTAILS CAVORT Freshmen waited till 6 p.m. (initiation penalties are dropped at this time) and appeared in talented glory to present to overcritical upperclassmen Cottontail Capers. The applause . . . overwhelming, the show . . . good. The best yet quoth old timers. Competition was tough. The judges dickered about for a time, then came up with the winners. Annette March, first; Glennis Nelson and Larry Win- dedahl, second; Don Talsma, third. Judy Assam captured first by decision of the audience. The show, sponsored by Delta Sigma Alpha, was directed by Jeanine Deyling; Obert Knutson mastered the ceremonies. Talent ran the gamut of vocal and instrumental solos and duets to modern dance and ballet. 24

Eat hearty fellows, it ' s a long time till quarter break. Below, the walk- out. Is it really true that some freshman girls never came back? WSGA did their bit in making fresh- man women feel loved. Earlier in the year little and big sisters were lined up. Everybody walked out to Hillcrest park for a bite to eat and some socializing. There ' s a picnic every quarter except winter. The WSGA pickings had barely been cleared away from the park, when the whole student body rushed out. Great quantities of Jungle hamburgers, potato salad, and chips, coffee and ice cream were consumed. All burped con- tentedly and settled the load on swings and merry-go-round. The college, well known for its agri- cultural endeavors, found little left to harvest in the apple orchard. Educated poachers . . . students, slunk among the laden branches, plucked the scarlet treasure, and silently retreated to mys- terious havens to devour the loot in peace. Pleasant memories of similar childhood pranks prancing about little minds. The joys of psycho regression. 23

With a theme of Autumn Leaves, and the brisk, warm you up music of the Collegiates, girls rummaged through the phone book, conjured up courage, rum- maged through the phone book, talked it over with their roommate, rummaged through the p hone book, and finally got their dates for Theta Sigma Phi ' s Sugar Bowl Hop. First big dance of the year, and girl ask boy. A record breaking crowd turned up, not unusual for this type dance. The first of three chances, or girl ask boy dances of the year. It ' s not formal, just best dress, and another unusual twist for a big college dance, there is no royalty. Tantalizing autumn leaves swirled from the ceiling and real tree branches. Every man had to get one to grace his date ' s bulletin board ... so the roof came tumbling down ... no one was injured. A freshman strikes a dramatic pose, displays talent. Judy Assam, dancing girl, wins first in audience approval. Jim Fourier makes like Elvis, guitar and all, but what about the Cadillacs? COEDS CHOOSE AT SUGAR BOWL TIME 25
