September 27 Like the side show to a state fair, the Inter-Fraternity Council-Pan-Hellenic Picnic frolicked amid its carnival atmosphere. Barkers beckoned passers-by to test their skills and try their luck at the variety of booths sponsored by individual fraternities and sororities. While fellows demonstrated their strength attempting to ring the bell with a slug of the sledgehammer, other picnickers sneered at the chance to throw eggs and water balloons at dodging frat brothers.

People, of course, brought this campus to life. Their everyday activities, their eating and sleeping, working and playing, exhibited the movements and vitality of down-to-earth living. Without people there would have been little more movement than the swirl of leaves or the wisp of snow captured by a gusty wind. And only nature's howls and whistles, and thunder crashes and rain splatters would have remained as the sounds of silence.” But even the absence of human activity would not have signified the absence of life.

Like a garden of Eden without Adam and Eve, or like an abandoned shack on an Oklahoma prairie, this would have been a place of peace, solitude, and loneliness. Without people to admire and enjoy and live this spot of earth, though the trees would have grown and the river would have rippled, WSU-0 would never have been a paradise anyway. People, of course, brought this campus to life. 26
