RESHMAN CAMP has become an institution at UNH. Every year it grows and every- one has more fun than the year before. This is proved by the number of campers who en- joyed it enough to become counselors in the next year's camp.

All the outdoor programs had to be altered or dropped completely. The idea of Freshman Camp is to give the incoming student some hint of what to expect from his four years of college. There are semi- nars, discussions, and old-fashioned bull sessions long into the night on every conceivable subiect. There is fun, too, with contests, singing, dancing, and skits.

Beginning with registration in the morning and followed by an informal reception at New Hamp- shire Hall, the grads started out on a busy day. While the undergraduates were busy erecting their house decorations, the alumni were notic- ing on their tour of the campus how much their alma mater had changed. Then they attended the fifth annual chicken barbecue at Putman Hall. Of course the main attraction was the foot- ball game between the Blue Hens of Delaware and the U. N. H.

Following the game, the fraternities, sororities, and dormitories held open house. Some of the grads were served tea, others dinner-but they really did not notice-they were too busy greet- ing old friends-alumni and students. The day ended with the Homecoming dance at New Hampshire Hall where Smith Hall, Chi Omega, Gibbs Hall, and Theta Chi received the cups for the best house decorations. Thus closed another Homecoming Day with everyone looking forward to the one next year.
