“So, where’s the central subject, Mr. Photographer?” Sunday finally came and another weekend was down in the history books and the “Men of the Slide Rule re¬ turned lost and alone back to their books, or was it their beds. The Interfraternity Songfest, sponsored by Pi Delta Epsilon, was held in the Fall this year and proved to be a truly memorable occasion. The winning octet was from Sigma Phi Epsilon. Their unique rendition of an old spiritual entitled “Who Died?” left no doubt in anyone’s mind as to who the champions would be. With first term finals only a matter of a few weeks away, it was time once again for the annual Tech Carni- “The darkness shall pass, and then . . . .” val where the Freshmen and Sophomores compete to see who has the edge in dramatic talents. The faculty also demonstrates their own theatrical abilities in a skit that never fails to bring the house down. The Sophs again came out second best with their presentation with the intriguing title of “The Darkness at the Bottom of the Gopher Hole.” The Freshmen took the cup with their version of “Life at Tech,” always a topic loaded with comical situations. The faculty kept the audience in stitches with some glimpses of what goes on behind the scenes in faculty meetings. These have been some of the highlights of events over the past year. They don’t begin to tell of all the good times we had, or the bad, but well remember those without having to record them here. Our glass slipper lovelies.

X✓ Lincoln Plaza, and Greenhill Park were as essential to a Frosh’s all around development as was the knowledge of school, and as a result, many Frosh were treated to one-way rides. Fortunately for the Sophs, the Frosh had only a few cars in as much as a new rule had been put into effect forbidding dorm residents from having cars of their own on campus. The few that city class¬ mates could gather were used again and again, but to little advantage as the Sophs swarmed the triangle with hordes of the four-wheeled vehicles. However, what the Frosh lacked in modern advances they overcame in spirit. They took the Paddle Rush by a slim 39-36 mar¬ gin and pulled the Sophs through Institute Pond with the greatest of ease. This took the wind out of the Sopho¬ mores and hazing was over for another year. Time passed and shortly after pledging and the close of rushing season everyone looked forward to a fabulous I.F. Weekend, and the “Alpenfest” with music of Harry Marshard. Saturday afternoon was devoted to various fraternity activities including, surprisingly enough, some square dancing. Basketball and a special presentation of “Briga- doon sponsored by the newly formed “Arts Society” provided the early evening entertainment. For late eve¬ ning and early morning enjoyment, festivities were pro¬ vided at the various houses. “Will someone nudge the Good Doctor?”
