To Orientating Freshmen Maroon Keys will probably be best remembered for their bonfires, although they do play a more serious role on campus. The main objective of this honorary sophomore or- ganization is to meet and advise freshmen during ori- entation, but they also sell beanies, usher at football games, raise money for scholarships, and build bon- fires. Freshmen would certainly be lost without the sup- port and rousing school spirit of the Keys during those first few days. MAROON KEYS First Row: G. Kaplan. Treasurer; B. Healy. President: D. Hunter.

Veteran Sophomores Devote Time Recognizable on campus by their hats and blazers, Scrolls together with Keys work hard to help freshmen adjust to and enjoy UMass life. Besides greeting freshmen, Scrolls also usher at uni- versity events, sell beanies, raise money for their schol- arships, and sell tickets for various freshmen events. During orientation, they give particular attention to freshmen commuters. Each Scroll has a little sister commuter whom she personally helps and advises. 22

400 Students and a The Four Freshmen, accompanied by one pigeon, more than entertained stu- dents in a concert on Sept. 27. The pi- geon, flying around loose in the Cage, tried its best to steal the show but merely became the object of humorous remarks by the foursome. Everyone is familiar with the modern harmony of this group. Not only can they adapt their vocal blend to ballad as well as to swinsins rhythm numbers, but they can also provide their own enter- tainment. Anyone who can play two instruments at once, and even do some singing in one number is pretty versatile. Multiply this by four and the result is sensational. Whatever mood they wished to create instrumentally, they easily accomplished. They could sound like a jazz quartet, a percussion group, or almost a full or- chestra. Although they are called the Four Freshmen, they have talent and profi- ciency beyond any freshman. These four, Bob Flanigan, Bill Comstock, Ross Barbour, and Ken Albers, have appeared in nightclubs, at the Newport Jazz Festi- vals, and on campuses throughout the country. Maybe they will remember UMass as that campus with the crazy pigeon in the glass Cage. k X i k y
