The Weekend: a main attraction and, a growing tradition-' unior ee-kend Pioneered by Donald jacques, three years ago, the junior Weelsend has already become part of Anselmian tradition and one of the main attractions on the college social calendar. The scene of the Weelaend this year was the popular Beau Reve where the juniors took over Holly- wood Inn. Including a variety of activities such as the Junior Prom, :1 banquet, a basketball game and other entertainment, the Weekend is certain to be always a part of the Hilltop social program in the future. 5 3 r 'X VAN- +1-ff The Prom: a tux, a girl, and Ted He1'bert's music.

. . . Erlman: an event without his uct just wasn't known. The spirit of growth at St. Anselm's was not limited to aca- demic and athletic pursuits, but included also social events. So it was that during the past few years underclassmen have grad- ually expanded their social programs until they ranked with those produced by Seniors. Despite widespread apathy among many members of the lower classes, such men as Ray Stauder, Phil Canty and'other leaders succeeded in achieving one of the most successful social programs to date. One of the high points was the Freshman dance which eclipsed many other class activi- ties.

One of the main reasons why the college social program has expanded so much in recent years is the Season Pass Plan. This plan, by spreading the cost of social activities over the student body as a whole, has enabled the stu- dents of the individual classes to plan events in advance thus permitting the efficient programs which have been so successful. Many of the events pictured here and on other pages owe their success to the Season Pass which in turn owes its success to Rev. Paul Houde, O.S.B., Dean of Men at St. Anelm's whose essential cooperation and guidance was so willingly given. Credit too, must be given the members of the Student Council whose task it was to arrange the events and keep them from conflicting, not only with other St. A's offerings, but also with those of surrounding colleges. The value of a vigorous social program cannot be denied and few institutions can boast of a program better planned or executed as that of St. Anselm's in the past few years. The high value of attendance at such functions have been and will continue to be an integral part of col- lege life. . . . at the Beau Reve the juniors took over while the season passes paid the rent,
