The .Mumni .Association devotes much ol its effort and most oi its income to the support of the School and flu ' student body. We welcome the graduating classmen as members ot the . lumni Association and trust that tin y will become actiw in the work of the .Association, We also look forward to the day when the inidergraduates will join our ranks in the ears ahead. A college is onK as strong as its Alumni Association and support; and the . lumni .Association derives its strength from the active participation of its membership. For the future of our School and of Pharmacy, it is important that the alumni, the school and the student body work together in building strength and support for our programs and needs. Good luck!

ALUMNI FROLIC The first event of the social season ot 1963— 1964 was the Seventeenth Annnal Alumni Frolic held this year at Sudbrook High School. Even with an unusually small enrollment at school with the five-year program just coming into its own, the Frolic this year proved a hilarious and enjoyable time tor those who attended. Credit should be given to Dr. Frank J. Slama for his assistance to the students at the Pharmacy School which enabled them to perform in a very satisfactory f ishion. First place this year went to the class of 1966 whose version of Life down at Pharmacy School was quite accurate and hilariously funny . This starts the beginning of a new series of competition for the Cherry Cup, which is annuallv awarded to the best con- testants. Alpha Zeta Omega took second place with a take ott of Pharmacy lab and First Aid, while close behind was Phi Delta Chi and their locker-room version of life during a school day. The Class of 1965 also participated in the Frolic. Congratulations must be given to those in- dividual performers who took over between the acts. First place went to Richard Wynn who proved a master of the trumpet and pop music, while Ralph Sollod played selections from Vest Side Story. Robert Kroopnick must also be congratulated for singing a few solos. The affair was followed by refreshments and the socializing of guests, students, and teachers.
