Students study every- where—even in the Stu- dent Union. Here Skeet Morris, Jim McLellan, George Bowland, Debi Russell, and Ronna Rut- ledge hit the books. Histories make men wise; poets, witty; mathematics, subtle; natural philosophy, deep. (Bacon, Of Studies ) It is most convenient to study in the library— where Mark Auerback and Kathy Moriarty are able to find peace and quiet. Skeet Morris takes time out from his duties in the Bowling Alley to read over notes for tomorrow ' s class.

Friends surround Sye Hitchcock, 1963 Homecoming Queen, fol- lowing her coronation. Sororities, Froternities, and Indepen- dent Groups competed in the traditional Iron Skull Sing, sponsored by the junior co-ed honorary.

Sue and Jan then provided the beauty and royalty for the remaining Homecoming Activities. Distinguished Alumni awards were received by Thurman W. Arnold, Floyd E. Dominy, Velma Linford, and Harold F. Newton. Parade winners were: Tau Kappa Epsilon, Pi Beta Phi, and Hill Hall. Sing winners were: Delta Delta, Delta Alpha Tau Omega, and Ross Hall. Now Homecoming 1963 is looked back upon with happy memories — and its activities become part of Two Million Years Past. She moves a goddess, and she looks a queen. (Homer, Iliad ) Members of the Casper Troopers, one of the best drum and bugle corps of the United States, performed during the half and following the homecoming game.

Dr. A. J. Dickman is shown demonstrating to students the use of laborotory equipment. Students taking modern foreign languages benefit by oral practice made in the labora- tories. I In our modern age, the importance of the knowledge of one or more Foreign Languages, has been more and more recognized. The University of Wyoming offers courses in French, German, Russian, and Spanish, as well as the classical languages, Greek and Latin. The Language Department furnished on entirely new laboratory in the fall of 1963. Enrollment in the Department is steadily increasing, with every student in the College of Arts and Sciences taking at least two years of one language. Frank Pitcher is shown with the new laboratory facilities in the ColleQe of Edu- cation. Students, training to become teachers of Foreign Longuages, observe methods used in this classroom.
