Dear Old Alma Mama Stirs Crocodile Act ,''"r nN "' ' 'J Making like a student above is Joyce Herrick. Although she was not enrolled at Weber this quarter, we thought you'd enjoy this shot. Kather coy, yet just studious enough. After all, nothing's quite so uninteresting as statistics for cheesecake. A nice academic note to end this year's music with. High School Grads Note: Continued from Page 1 office stands not without blemish, but certainly and remarkably free of gross error induced by carelessness and casual unconcern. With a touch of nostalgia we look back upon the past football season and a hardy, tenacious squad that fought through fair weather and foul to add laurels to the Weber crown. Approbation and acclaim we heap upon the heads of a repeatedly victorious basketball machine and with manifest pride signal the achievements of the boys in baseball uniform who have represented the college earnestly and well. To swimmers, golfers and the numerous other athletic aspirants all, we pay homage for the many honors earned in Weber's name. During the year forensic art has experience a hey-day. Debaters who chalked up consistent wins topped an ebentful course with first place glory at the national Phi Rho Pi meet. Oratory, extemp, impromptu, after-dinner-speaking, and the many other competitive fields of discourse entered by aspiring and inspired rehtoricans have been conquered by these our gladiators of verbal campaigns. Not to be forgotten are the Dorian singers, Musettes, vocal quartets, the college orchestra and band and numerous musical groups who have entertained both within and beyond Weber walls. Let full recognition similarly be accorded to those deserving students of histrionic art who assisted in portraying and presenting "The Sliver Chord," "Christopher Blake," and "The Male Animal." Much of the credit for successful social activities must be given to enterprising affiliated groups who have shouldered the responsibility and, very often, the expense of dances, parties, assemblies and related social functions. Finally, we deliver our respect to considerate faculty members who have cooperated at all times and have guided the student cause. The time has come for the masses leave the classes. After several years nay, even more than several, the present soph class will leave the sacrosanct halls of jolly old Weber for the happier hunting grounds of various colleges throughout the nation. This next year will bring in an influx of happy youths to these ancient halls. High schools throughout the Mountain Empire shall pour these children into the holocaust of college. All they think about is the hard times they will have with all the homework, studies, and so on. Little do they know. Iggernance is bliss, kiddies. Best for Homework The first quarter is best for homework. They will adjust quickly to the rou- , tine of two- ' rn , hours per sub- f ??TlfySV ject per night, g" i" JJWj. x n e l r eraaes ; will mg. The next heir grades SLfo ill be astound- Sl. sr. The nevt i ' jPlVIl quarter will tell a different story. Here is when the life of Weber starts. Those nasty parties horrible dances the gay night life and soon the savoir-faire of the born bon vivant sets light upon the brow of the growing collegiate. The studies have taken a back seat to the more important aspects of college, that is, the gay social whirl. There is no better place than this for setting your matrimonial booby trap. You have a choice of anything that walks and is probably alive. College is where the more important strategems are worked out? for the 'rally' big game outside, (game with money). Delightful Aspect Another delightful aspect of college is the various clubg catering to various sexes. These usually send out scouts into the bush leagues to find the big hits in the high school league. These are duly appraised, voted on, and approached. A brief resume of the clubs and etc. of the W. C. campus. Alpha Rho Omega caters to the intellectuals and free-thinking, gay bohemian type. These lads have jolly parties. Phoenix Phoenix is just Phoenix, with their gay trios and free rye bread for their Hamlet. Frenisti has been rejuvenated and has risen from the dust like the Phoenix of old. They have jolly parties. Skull their motto is how dry I am. (Dry bones, that is). Tbey have jolly parties and a genial bunch of lads these are. They Too, Jolly Vikings they sail the troubled H20s of college life. They too are jolly. Excelsior more jolly lads. Their battle cry is "Excelsior" and they go on and on. Their parties and White City Ballroom SATURDAY ONE NIGHT ONLY CHARLIE SPIVAK AND HIS ORCHESTRA Admission $1 .20 Each social life are typical of their nature.Last but not the least of the men's clubs is Sigma Delta Pi. Their membership roll is studded with the stars of the athletic firmament. Brawn mixed with brain is prevalent. Their hospitality is unexcelled. Their informalget-to-getbers! (How's this, Mr. Scott?) To continue. We next have the various girls clubs. A brief resume. Chanodo. These merry maids are very merry. Likewise their personnel and parties. Iota has a jolly bunch. L. D. is a jolly bunch, Otyokwa, Sharmea, Sophvita, Tiki all come under the classification as Chanodo and all are well known for the charm of their personalities, their good looks and good grades. Running short of space, the moral of this column is come to college and get learned in the ways of the intelligentsia.
