dorm sing and skit competition. Thatcher won the sings and Butter- field the skits. UlNI ' s expansion program was continued, and many things were new: a school of nursing, a music department, and a speech -and - drama major. The faculty got new members; the band got new uni- forms; and the campus cops got a new cruiser. Mills and Butterfield were given back to the boys, and the girls moved down into the valley. Two new women ' s dorms were opened. Leach House for upperclassmen and Crabtree House for freshmen. Dignity and simplicity charac- terized the opening convocation at which Provost Mather ad- dressed the students and faculty. He asked for university members with an outlook as expansive as the horizon around them. He also pledged himself, as so should we all, to look to the future of our school, keeping in mind a realistic understanding of its avowed pur- pose as a state university.

A convocation, a test, a play day, and two dances — college had be- gun. This year all 11 40 of the fresh- men had been pre-registered so that this traditional ordeal was now a joy — well, almost. Right oflF, the effervescent spirit of freshmanism was evoked in something new this year, an inter- Tlie first buck is the hardest. [15
