Show WEBER'S SOCIAL SCENE Sigma 's 'Nightmare 'Dance on Tap Tonight If anyone doesn't know by now what Sigma is pushing this week, they've either spent the last several days in bed or their hearing aid has blown a fuse. For the benefit of these slug-a-beds and deadheads we repeat Sigma's dance, the "Nightmare," is tonight at the Old Mill, starting at !.t p.m. If you haven't any presentable bed clothes, don't wear anything. It's cold enough that people will think you're wearing blue pajamas. Also on the Sigma slate is our assembly next Friday. It promises to be one of the most hilarious farces to tread the boards since the Marx brothers' act broke up. Featured will be the "Knowles' Knockouts," a chorus line of beauties; the "Vino Boys," Jim and Pud; and some humor m a jugular vein, dealing with a satire on the "Medic" television show. Otyokwa j, The squaws are all holding their breath in expectation of the success of our Sweetheart Ball which will be held at the White City Ballroom tomorrow night. It's going to be especially exciting when the Sweethearts are announced; that lucky twosome who gets chosen by Donna Reed and Jeff Chandler. Best of luck candidates! A great big welcome goes to our former little pledges who are now members with full rights and privileges. It's great to have you, cute little squaws in our tribe. Now we can really roll ! ! The squaws had a lively little get-together with the Sigma men at the Melody Inn two weeks ago. We're looking forward to lots more "blasts." Otyokwa wishes to congratulate Ann Holmstrom "outstanding sophomore girl." Best wishes for success in the future, Ann. Sharmea After Hell Week the Pink Ladies were almost happy to get back to their studies. From the survey we took we found that absolutely none of our pledges care at all for gold fish with marshmallows in them, and Melba Sampson hates them. Sharmea is practicing for intra-murals and starting to work on the Talent Show. After winning last year, we've really got something to look forward to, and something to work for. Some of the more daring Pink Ladies have joined the ski class, and every Friday afternoon you will see them sliding down school hill, except for Karen Treseder who finds it hard to pull herself away from the rope tow. We hope none of them break their legs, because there's no place in the talent show for anyone on crutches. .V.V.W.V.'AW.W.V.V 3 to 10 A AAA to B Flax . . . Red . . . Black . . .

With the 'ol sweat of the "Snowball" over we have been hitting the party trial again with a fling with L.D. during the holidays and "swimmin' with wimin" party with Sharmea plus whatever we can cook up between now and press time. Frivolous and Hell Week are now over and we haven't had a chance to count the bodies yet, but we hope every one made it . . . As usual we are not going to take life easy and ourselves for granted and work has already started on the assembly and the talent show, well anyway, we have thought about them real hard, (ouch) Well enough of this 'ol babble, time to study ? ? Well anyway, see you at the game tonight. La Diahaeda The week of hell is over for the pledges of LaDianaeda and as yet no known casualties have been reported.Frivolous was kind of hard on those who didn't pass the membership test, just ask Dixie Burnett or Rose Holley. Dixie probably won't be eating cake for quite awhile, she learned first hand how to make a cake in someone's hair. But she was a sport and that's what we like. Donna Miller and Dixie Peterson got a little shook up playing blind man's bluff of course they didn't have anything to worry about they had a very competent leader. Our membership banquet was held at Hoffman's after a very impressive membership ceremony, which incidently was changed by Mrs. Hall and Mrs. Tribe who like the rest of us were tired of the old ceremony. Now that we are all members we're looking forward to a great remaining year in which we will be a part of all the activities.

Having just recovered from the a highly successful (and profitable) Malefic, held at the Old Mill Inn, the MEN are in the flurry of preparation for the biggest dance of the year at dear Weber College. Each year the classiest and most spectacular dance of the year is the Sweetheart ball. This year is no exception to any in the past and the work on the 1956 edition has been moving right along. For the past few weeks, amidst trips to Salt Lake, letters, phone calls, and reports to club, the men have been mapping plans for the Big Affair. With the girls of Otyokwa working just as hard to achieve results, many fine ideas have been molded into workable plans. ,This year the dance will be held at the White City Ballrocm to give the extra room needed for the crowd which the Y's men from BYU will draw. This band has been on several tours into California and Nevada and from all reports, "they can't be beat. This year the men of Excelsior have selected Joyce Underwood, Marge Sudweeks, Sandy Lower, and Donnette Ralph to compete for this Queen of the Ball. This vear the choice will be made by Donna Reed and Jeff Chandler oi Hollywood fame. Engineers Club Because it has been the custom in the past the space between the winter and spring quarter has been chosen as the time for the Engineers' club to make their annual exodus from the ivory covered halls of Weber College and journey to the happy never-never land of California. Crand most, high exalted President Wiggins of the club has planned a fun filled six days in Los Angeles, the smog capital of the world. Excursions that will be made this year include a trip to the sinking (that's sinking, sir) harbor at Long Beach, The Los Angeles county sewage disposal plant (that's stinking) the burlesque. Howard Hughes airplane plant, The Fcrd Motor comp;any assembly plant, Miss Patricia Del Ray, The Firestone Rubber Company. Griffith park observatory and many other exciting and informative visits. The cost of the trip has been unofficially estimated to be $19.'2i and !f2,0(X. This last figure was submitted by an incautious math major who had to jump bail. Something to do with stealing a Greyhound bus, I hear. $20 of this money will go for transportation and another $23 will go for luxuries such as a room in a hotel and food. The rest is usually spent on comic books and aspirin. So start your beards and your savings accounts right now and be the first in your gang to sign up. Smiling Jack told me that he would grow a beard for the trip also if we have more than 35 Engineers sign up. - For further information see Professor J. W. Atkins.

Valley Junior, Brockbank Junior, and Cyprus High Schools were all recipients of this added service. The purpose of the clinics is to promote better playing in the high Alpha Rho Those proud-looking, handsome young men you see walking around the hall now aren't father's, nor did they get an "A" in their last test; no, they're just the new members the Alpha Rhovians have formally initiated into their club at that "hair-raising" brawl of a frivolous, which climaxed "Hell Week" for them. We, old members are pleased with these guys, and we welcome them to our midst. Besides "Hell Week", the Blue Knights have been busier 'n a cat with ten kittens, getting measured for the new club sweaters, (nearly every member's getting one), having their pictures taken as a group for club prestige, and preparing to throw that "Project of Projects" of ours the Smokeless Smoker, coming up February 20th. This year, under the very worthy supervision of Nolan "Spike" Jones, the Smoker looks to be tiie biggest and best yet. We are proud to announce that Milo Savage, highranking contender for middle-weight crown, will be our referee. Although not sure of the details yet, we plan to have some Exhibition bouts from Hill Field and University of Utah, the state school boys, and the Hepcats of Ogden, besides some outstanding boxers from the clubs here at Weber. More details of this event will be in the next issue of Signpost.

Remember ye-lovers-of-music the concert is February 23, 8:13, at Ogden High School auditorium. Chanodo Well, somehow we have survived Hell Week this far. After Frivolous last week all the frosh came to school looking a bit bedraggled. Swallowing goldfish and having an egg shampoo aren't exactly pleasant. Next on our list is getting a hot basketball team underway. With gals like Audrey Harris, Ann Wilberg and Toni Fife we can't miss. It will be the best team on campus. A vote of appreciation for Millie Hurst, our advisor, on the wonderful job she's been doing.
