What do Seniors do at o slumber party? Carol Standi- ford eyes the photographer while Cynthia Rayl and Denita Beeler catch forty winks caving All work and no play makes for o dull day, so the Southwestern students had a variety of activities to occupy their extra time. Little diversions, planned and unplanned, brightened their days. The regular routine was interrupted on the day the hallway near the office was flooded. Everyone passing to classes had to detour through the library. Many rumors circulated as to the cause of the incident, but nothing was ever proved. The worst day for the freshmen, but the best day for the seniors, also interrupted the normal class rou- tine. The poor little freshmen wore themselves ragged pleasing the mean old seniors on freshman initiation day. The seniors thoroughly enioyed making the fresh- men bow three times and pass out candy. Every fresh'- man had to pass a rigid costume inspection, and they were appropriately decorated with various shades of lipstick. A special assignment was given to one ofthe algebra classes who, under the direction of Garland Frey, hailed Forever Mrs. Crow to the surprised tea- cher. The picture at the top of the page?
