A I IN THE SPRING everyone started mass migration from stuffy class rooms to stuffing ice cream cones on the lawn . . . Those few who tried to study found a dull glaze forming over their eyes W- a well known symptom of the old disease spring fever . . . Convert- ible tops rolled down, people lazed on stints 'fit A 0,10 .1 Q Q i - 1 .-.-.1-1 Vo T 5, I rw QE' if the lawn, boys played half-hearted games of ball, soft drinks were con- sumed by the gallons . . . Everyone joined the W.P.A. --- meaning We Piddle Along. A YOUNG MAN'S FANCY lightly turned towards woomance and woe- mance, and the season brought out thoughts of picnics with the gang, moonlight rides, the more prosaic yet satisfying campus strolling, and mild games of peek-a-woo . . . New campus couples blossomed like the proe verbial flowers in May and old couples got even more solidly into the groove . . . A very satisfying season for the love bug.

ELECTIONS were held during all sea- sons but the spring ones brought out all the little tricks of the trade that could be concocted by college poli- ticians and self-styled white-haired boys . , . Everyone pulled for their coalition candidates . . . Screws were put on the mildest students . . . Hand- bills circulated . . . Loud speakers blasted . . . Poll politics were prac- tised . . . The old pep talks were given to all that would listen . . . and sometimes the best man did win!
