union activities Dances, parties, pep assemblies, meetings, luncheons and teas, everything but classes are held in the Union Building. Parties! Games! Dances! Fun! Entertain- ment! All this and much more were pro- vided by the staff and personnel of our Student Union. Originality, initiative and hard work went into the planning and direction of sweater hops, Kampus Kapers, the Avalon cruise and the Christmas party. Guiding the students was Miss Shirley Grant, Union social director. Two big parties were the annual all- campus Christmas party and the Union birthday party. Movies, games, dancing, entertainment and Santa Clous were all provided for the former while the latter was highlighted with two five-layer birth- day cakes. Kampus Kapers changed its format this year. Individual novelty acts were added to the usual skits provided by the fraterni- ties and sororities. The Four Freshmen may even become a legend, having made their second appearance this year — two crazy-wild performances. Front Row: Doug Barthlow, Jack Miller, Margie Hassee.

The seven Union committees play the ma- jor role in the Union social program. The Personnel Committee was added this year to evaluate committee members, to revise and put into operation individual rating sheets, and to conduct the Union Workshop. The Union celebrated its fifth birthday with a bang-up party planned by the Social Committee. A large, glittering 5 and colored balloons decorated the lobby and Great Hall. All committee members worked to- gether at the Christmas Decorating Party, project of the House Committee. After trimming the tree and decorating, they sang carols and enjoyed refreshments. High school seniors from the city and Tri-State area were the guests of the En- tertainment Committee at a series of parties to acquaint them with Evansville College. With good music and a gay atmos- phere, students danced many hours away in the Grill at the Friday night Sweater Hops, planned by the Dance Committee. Sporty guys and gals had their chance to win a trophy in ping-pong, billiards, bowling, and chess tournaments spon- sored by the Games Committee. Anticipation was high for the Four Freshmen concert arranged by the Finance Committee. Sale of Homecoming mums brought in funds for the Union Board Con- ference.
