Final registration dates for Book ends are much the same as ears. It doesent really matter what they look like. Its whats between them that counts. Another UBIC is over, along with the talent shows, exhibits, contests, speeches, dances and pageant. It seemed that most and events were appreciated. There were several new features to the celebration this year. One, there were less mosquitoes (except at the track meet). Oh, there were still a few around, and we even heard some complaints, but if you will remember back to the past years, you can be sure It was much better this year. and The "mussle-load- er cannon shoots drew considerable Interest. Butter Churning and pie eating also captured the Interest of the crowds. As usual there were a few complaints. One was concerning the elimination of door prizes at the dance, with prizes only through a raffle. To this writer, it appeared that the change was rather effective, except for the fact that there were not enough workers on hand all three nights to sell both sets of tickets. Another complaint, which we felt was Justified, was the use of the large speaker system for the dances. As the dance started Thursday night, the music was piped through the large speakers at such volume that a number of people left the park. At the concession stands west of the grandstand, the music was being amplified so loud the This building was vibrating. situation was corrected, however, and the rest of the evenings dancing was enjoyed liy one of the larger crowds weve seen at the tennis court dances. Friday night, for the battle of the bands, the volume was again worked out satisfactorily, and the competing lands presented a good show. It was a different story Saturday night however, as the band began playing, the powerful amplifying system was again thrown into high gear, blasting the music throughout town. Now, we're not anti modern music, but we do feel that the blare of sound which could be heard more than three blocks away at more volume than a person would ordinarily operate his stereo set (even with the windows closed), was a disgraceful climax to the celebration. The revirlieration, which lasted until 1 a.m. Sunday morning, was certainly inconsiderate of the feelings of persons of the community. No, it wasn't the bands fault. This is the type of music that is popular. However, the musicians had amplifiers sufficient to supply music for dancing.
