Orientation, registration first veek of college. THE FIRST few days of school for tlie lunvly- formcd class proved that stamina was necessary to endure the confusion. Endless lines, class schedules, and many cards composed the fatiguing hours lor the enthusiastic hut weary freshmen meeting the beginning pace.

A realization of newness — faces, onllook . pidh- lems. and responsibilities — contronted the incoming students ihrougli their first glimpses of UC. STUDENTS, -fussing about having to stand in line to pay money, happily see registration nearing an end. YW MEMBERS drawl an invite to join the Y at AWS ' s mock political convention presenting activities to freshmen. JUNIOR ADVISEES LEARN A LITTLE OF UC TRADITION — MIC AND MAC — ON THEIR J.A.
