FIRST HOUR Having had no lessons to prepare and no papers to write, the students should have looked as fresh as proverbial daisies. The black gowns sprinkled about in some of the first classes gave them a forbidding competitive look for the Freshmen, Sophomores and -Iuniors. The Seniors looked around to see how much Phi Bete material they were up against. Wheii the professors came in, the Freshmen discovered whom they had got, or who had got them. Book orders were filled ing work was outlined. The worried and distressed, yellow cards in hand, waited in line outside the Recorder's oflice for the privilege of complaining about their schedules. People screamed to their friends across the quad, I have no classes all day Friday! Then began the rush to the Service building, the book exchange, and the library, followed by an even greater rush to the coke and the comf modity bun.

Tl-IE UROE to OROANIZE1 The various organizations introduced at the mass meeting resumed their adf vertised activities. None was more active or better publicized than Polit, which found much to talk about in this particular year. The bulletin boards in Main bristled with demonstrations of the sad state of the World, and espef cially of the South, on Whose social and economic conditions the annual Polit conference centered. Posters and photo' graphs invaded even the Retreat. It was not long before the Vassar Drive entered the stream of our social consciousness. Collectors made the rounds at ninefthirty, and left pledge 16 slips. Robin Hood, a man entirely unf related to Errol Flynn, took his stand quite publicly at the north end of Main. He arrested at least the glances of passersfby between the Mail and Rocky, and plainly pointed out both his take and his demands.
