'Hawaii Calls' Theme Of Novelty Affair; Admission Fifty Cents

by Marilyn Krackenfels Tonight in the gym, the Wilkes

Chapter of the Collegiate Council of the United Nations will sponsor its first dance of the season. Since everyone in the United States to-

"y, "from three to a hundred and -- n," has been bitten by the hula

toop bug, the club has dubbed its dance "Around the World in a Hula Hoop." Music will be provided fi'om nine until twelve by the Boulevard Quartet.

The highlight of the evening, a hula hoop contest, is intended to carry out the theme of the dance. Anyone of either sex who isn't a- fraid of slipping a few discs in his back will be eligible to participate.

Dance committee heads are as follows:

Publicity, Mary Lou Bender ;refreshments, Jay Olexy; tickets, Nancy Moldauer; decorations, Skip Gladstone; music, Liz Schwartz. Lois Betner, CCUN president, is general chairman. Don Murray is in charge of intermission activities.

For the nominal fee of fifty cents everyone attending will be treated to both dancing and the Wilkes version of "Hawaii calls."

C 'n' C Rehearsals Set for Musical; Cast Announced

The Cue 'n' Curtain club is busi- ly preparing sets and rehearsing for their first production of the fall semester, "Annie Get Your Gun."

Irving Berlin wrote the score for "Annie", which enjoyed a long run on Broadway with Ethel Merman and Ray Middleton in the leading roles. This will be one of the big- gest productions that the club has ever undertaken, and it will require a lot of work both on the part of the cast and the backstage crew.

Bill Peters, a junior music major, has been named to direct the chorus for the show; Peters is also director of the male chorus. This will be the first time that a student of the college has ever been named chorus director for a musical pro- cluction.

Cue 'n' Curtain head Alfred S. Groh will direct the show, and Mr. John Detroy will handle the musical direction.

Last week Miss Janice Krump- ski, due to reasons of health, bowed out of the cast and Miss Barbara Cusick, a newcomer to Cue 'n' Cur- tain, took over the part of Annie Oakley. Hre leading man will be Wayne Walters playing the role of Frank Butler, the sharpshooter in a Wild West Show. Fred Malkemes will play Charlie, the show fast talker and trouble soother.

Buffalo Bill will be played by Steve Cooney, and Judy Blutman will be Frank Butler's "charming assistant", Dolly Tate.

"Annie Get Your Gun" will be staged at the Irem Temple on Thursday, Friday, and Saturday, December 4, 5, and 6, under the sponsorship of the Wilkes-Barre Kiwanis. Students may obtain tickets at the Bookstore with their activity passes.

FORMAL CONCERT

It will be the first unveiling of the new costume adopted by popular vote of the members. For the opening half of the program, the men will wear the familiar blue choral gowns as they perform their more serious music.

After the intermission, they will be dressed in white coat sweaters on which will appear black, gold- trimmed, interlocked letters, "WC", and will wear dark charcoal slacks, white shirts and black knit ties.

Another new feature for their concert format will be the inclu- sion of a soloist. Well-known bari- tone Wayne Walters will augment the program with several selec- tions, accompanied at the piano by Bill Peters, director of the chorus.

Walters will be remembered for many singing triumphs during his four years at Wilkes, notably lead singing roles in the musical come- dies "Bloomer Girl" and "Paint Your Wagon". He is to sing the lead role, Frank Butler, in Cue 'n' Curtain's forthcoming production, "Annie Get Your Gun".

Continuing with departures from previous concerts, Dick Myers, president of the chorus, will act as master of ceremonies. In the past, the director usually announced each number before it was presented. The new feature has proved effec- tive in permitting the director to maintain the attention of the men throughout the program.

The concert is sponsored by the Baptist Men's group of Nanticoke who have chosen the Collegians to perform in their annual fund-rais- ing effort. They have announced that the concert is open to the public, free of charge. An offering will be taken during an intermission pei'iod.

Prior to this performance, the men have had several short plo- grams. They entertained a huge crowd at the United Fund dance at the gym recently, sang for the Open House Parents' Day program, and last week appeared on Channel 28's coverage of a report meeting of the United Fund campaign leaders.

Last week, together with about a dozen alumni Collegians, they entertained a capacity crowd at the Homecoming Dance at Irem Temple Country Club, under the direction of the first conductor and charter member of the group, Bill Crowder.

This Sunday at 9:30 a.cn., they will present a part of their concert program at the morning services in the English Baptist Church of Nanticoke. Several other appear- ances are in the planning stages, including tentative plans for another full-length concert near the end of the year.

by Sue Snoop The Student Government budget committee has announced

that all but two of the major activities have submitted budget requests for the 1958-59 school year.

United Fund Campaign Reaches Fifty Per Cent As Deadline Approaches

The United Fund drive is scheduled to end next Wednesday on campus with little more than fifty per cent of the student total of $1200 reached, as of Tuesday evening.

Individual class contributions, as reported by Gordon Roberts, stu- (lent chairman, have totaled $378; freshmen have contributed $126, sophomores, $92; juniors, $80; and seniors, $80.

The student contributions have been swelled --reatly by proceeds from the United Fund Dance, which netted a $162 profit. Various clubs and organizations have contributed $70 from their treasuries. These, added to the class total, produce a student total of $610.

The faculty contributions have reached the total of $2500, according to latest reports, to increase the all-college total in the drive to $3110.

NOTICE! All students are urged to attend

the Republican political rally on Chase Lawn, Wednesday at 12:20. Gubernatorial candidate McGonigle will address the students, and other party leaders will be present. Stu- dent government is sponsoring this rally.

EDITORIALS - 'The Mighty Dollar'

Even though the following is not the opinion shared by the whole editorial staff, we feel that it cannot be thrust aside without comment. We refer to the United Fund story: the "drive is scheduled to end next Wednesday with little more than fifty per cent of the student total of $1200 reached......

It has been pointed out to us that without the aid of various clubs and the proceeds from the United Fund Dance the student total would be even more insignificant.

What's wrong??? Is one dollar too huge a sum to part with? Are we a bunch of paupers, or are we just plain stingy? We realize that many students contribute to the United Fund through a place of employment; yet, $378 is hardly representative of the remaining students. Certainly if everyone who is able to participate would participate, the showing would be better.

If you haven't been contacted by canvassers, just don't sit back; Give! There is still time to meet our goal if we want to meet it. Fortunately, our faculty does not find giving to a worthy cause such an ordeal.

United Fund is the One Drive per year on campus. Let's help our neighbors of Wyoming Valley and oblitercie the re-il faces we should be wearing for such a poor response. JLE

Can't Compete The decorations are down, and the trophy is safely locked

away in the confines of Gore Hall - where it belongs. The men of Gore had a beautiful display for about ten minutes. Lights flashed, horses ran all over the lawn and people shot at each other in violent activity. But then the judges left, and so did the men of Gore, leaving the display as dead as last week's Beacon.

We have no personal complaint about the final decision of the judges, we merely wonder how the women's organizations on campus are expected to compete with such intricate wonders of engineering. Not many of the girls can hook up a rocket takeoff, complete with lights and moving Colonels, nor can they be expected to construct a moving football supporting the figure of a Colonel. Girls just don't have that much engineering talent.

We humbly suggest that two trophies be purchased for Homecoming next year - one for the displays put up by the predominantly male organizations and the other for the women's organizations.

We have checked back into our musty files of Beacons and have been unable to come up with one story that mentions the fact that a girls' dorm or organization won the trophy or even an honorable mention in the annual display contest. This can be discouraging to the eager bevy of girls who troop to the roof each year with hopes high.

We hope the Alumni Association will consider this sug- gestion and act before the women lose interest and do not bother to put up displays again. mjk

Strike Up the Band! No doubt about it, the 1958 Homecoming weekend was a

smashing success. The decorations were inspiring, the caravan impressive, the Royal party attractive, the football game a win, and the parties something to be remembered for some time to come.

One of the best examples of the overall enthusiasm concerning the two-day celebration was shown by the band. This fine group, always ready and willing to boost any event, outdid itself last week. Without any great deal of practice time, they gathered at the field at 10:00 a.m. and by game-time had worked up a marching routine worthy of "Big Ten" bands. Their rendi- tion of the popular "76 Trombones" was flawlessly executed. Bob Moran and his stalwarts will, we hope, take the hint offered by the appreciative applause and repeat this performance at a future game.

Additional praise is due Russ Picton for his chairmanship of the whole affair as well as to Bob Morris, student chairman for the gala weekend. On behalf of all of us who had duties directed by these two, our heartfelt thanks for a job superlatively done. RJ

TOUR OF HOTELS REVEALS MUCH HUMOR TO NOTED STAR

The lengths to which actors and actresses will go to add authenticity to their performances are nothing short of amazing. One Western star has redone his entire home Texas-style, complete with iron triangle on the porch to announce chow. A noted Shakespearean actor refuses to read contemporary books while appearing in a play, lest their English throw his Elizabethan frame of mind out of kilter.

Actress Ann Sothern, preparing There's a Miami hotel that's so for a new TV i'ole as an assistant exclusive, rumor has it, that guests hotel manager, has toured the have to pretend to be hired help. country to get the feel of hotel life, talking to managers, bellhops, maids, waiters.

"They're the most patient people in the world," Miss Sothern says, "and deserve a lot more recogni- tion than they've been getting. And what a lot of fun they are!"

In the course of her research, Ann has run across a lot of gags based on hotel life. But, as she says: "A joke is nothing until it has audience." So she graciously lasses on a dozen of her favorites herewith.

An obviously well-fcc! gentleman ate a final meal at a posh Texas hotel, capped it with some rare Napolean brandy, then raised a pudgy finger to the headwaiter. All attention, the headwaiter Ii stened. "I wonder if you remember," the man asked, "how I enjoyed just such a meal last year and, because I couldn't pay for it, you had me thrown out like a run-of-the-mill bum?" Flustered, the headwaiter said, "I'm terribly sorry, sir." "Perfectly all right," smiled the gentleman, fingering a cigar, "but I'm afraid I'll have to trouble you again."

Anxious to impress his friend, the Los Angeles real estate man boasted, "I just got a penthouse for my wife."

"Good deal!" exclaimed his pal, "where can I make a trade like that?"

The American couple had decided to see something of the world. One of the stops in their journey was a small inn in rural France. To facilitate their movements, the husband sent their bags ahead. When they arrived, the manager proud of the few English words he knewshowed them that he had already registered them, taking their names from the luggage. Sure enough, in a fine Spencerian hand, there they were: "Mr. and Mrs. Genuine Cowhide."

It happened in a Tulsa hotel. A shapely blonde, slinking her way through the lobby, ignored all the admiring stares until she en- countered the town's Number One oil driller. Suddenly, she was all smiles. "How much did you say your name was?" she inquired coy- ly.

Sign in an old Pittsburgh hotel: "Notify us if you see a mouse in your room. We'll send up the cat."

The secretary had pinched pen- nies for three years just to be able to afford the luxury of spending two weeks at a plush New England ski lodge. First morning there, she complained to the manager that twice during the night she had had to dress and go to the lobby for some water. "But why didn't you simply press the buzzer?" he asked. "The buzzer!" she cried. "The bellboy told me that was the fire alarm!"

The salesman remembered seeing the same sign over the door a year ago: "Out of Order!"

"Don't you ever fix the elevator?" he asked.

"Shucks," replied the hotel clerk, "we don't have no elevator. But it lends a high tone to the place, don't you think ?"

A mountaineer, visiting the big city for the first time, made his way through the lobby of a deeply- carpeted hotel. As he was strug- gling with the pen over the regis- ter, the room clerk noticed that the new guest had left a trail of mud across the room. "You might at least wipe the mud off your shoes before entering a fine hotel," he remarked icily. The mountaineer, finishing his "X", looked up with amazement. "Whut shoes?" he a slced.

Another backwoodsman, admiring the wonders of a swank hotel lobby, was particularly intrigued by the elevators. He watched as a little old lady stepped into one and disappeared behind the sliding door. Seconds later, the elevator returned and out stepped a stun- ning redhead.

"Golly," he marveled. "I should have brought my wife after all."

A recent visitor to Palm Springs, California's answer to the Riviera, reports, "Not everybody you see at the lavish hotels there is a million- aire," but adds, "Of course, they were when they arrived."

* * * * !'

And what would any collection of gags be without at least one shaggy dog story?

A man who had been staying at the same hotel every winter for 30 years was amazed to find a horse tending the desk - answering phone calls, summoning bellboys, opening letters.

In stunned disbelief, the man asked, "Are you the manager?"

"Yessir," the horse answered. "May I ask why you're staring?"

"Oh, nothing," said the man, "I just never thought the cow would quit."

Why is milking a cow like dock- ing a big ocean liner?

Because it takes a lot of little tugs.

Overheard in the caf. "What high school did you go

to?" "The one up on the hill." "What branches did you study?" "Most all of them. Hickory, ash,

and walnut."

"Say, I just got a part-time job after school."

"What kind of a job?" A draughtsman in a bank." "What do you do?" "Open and shut the windows."

Reynolds and Roberts Appointed to Court by

Student Government by Jim Eidam

Wilkes Student Government met in regular session Tuesday evening in the Dining Commons. Sixteen members, including newly-elected freshman representatives and the new senior representative were in attendance. The session was called to order by President Bob Morris at 5:15, aftei' which prayer was de- livered by Dick Salus.

Several of the highlights of the meeting were: appointment of Fred Roberts and George Reynolds to the newly-created Court of Appeals from a list of ten student nomin- ees; presentation of initial budget requests; discussion of preliminary plans for the Winter Carnival.

At the last regular meeting, each icpi'esentative (excluding freshmen) was asked to submit one or two nominations of students to serve on the Court of Appeals (one of the facets of the new constitu- tion). Representatives submitted ten names and gave background in- formation on the persons, concerning character, participation in extra - curricular activities, etc. After a rather close election, Rey- nolds and Roberts were named by the group to serve in this capacity. In the future, two faculty members and one of the administrative staff will be named to the Court of Appeals.

Concerning the Winter Carnival, Bob Washburn disclosed that no sites have been chosen to date. The group approved the motion that the cost of rental of a site should not exceed $225. After further discussion, it was decided that cost of a band for this occasion should not exceed $100.

Other Business In further business, Gordon Rob-

erts gave a report on the present state of the United Fund drive on campus. He stated that the dance of October 10 netted an approxi- mate $162 profit, with some four hundred persons in attendance.

Carl Juris, president of Econom- ics Club, spoke in behalf of his group and others on campus who desire to make various field trips throughout the year to further their understanding of their re- spective fields. Desire has been expressed on behalf of these campus organizations for partial reim- bui'sement from the student funds for expenses incurred on these trips. This subject was tabled until further research can be made on the subject.

Barbara Federer, chairman of the Freshman Advisory Commit- tee, presented a report and discussed the needs to insure a financial success for the forthcoming frosh Halloween dance.

The group was presented with tentative arrangements for next Wednesday's political speeches by the state Republican candidates.

Margaret Jones, chairman of the Education Club, made a request for financial reimbursement for expenses incurred at a i'ecent student educators' conference. Re- quest was granted by the group.

Gordon Roberts once more made the announcement of the weak response of the student leaders concerning the honor system question- naires. To date, only twenty-four have been returned from a total of forty-five.

"I suppose that you have traveled a great deal in your life ?"

"Yes, all over the world. I crossed the dead sea before it died."

Want Adamainia "Large dog for sale. Will eat

anything. Very fond of children." "Young man wants position in

bank handling money. Has no ob- jection to leaving town."

New Instructor In Engineering by Lee Balera

One of the many new instructors at Wilkes this year is Mr. E. Rus- sell May.

Mr. May is presently teaching freshman engineering lectures and surveying. He previously taught for Penn State Extension and re- ceived his Master of Science in Mechanical Engineering from Pur- due University.

Before coming to Wilkes Mr. May was employed at the Dow Chemical Company and was a project engineer for General Elec- ti-ic. He also worked on the An- thracite Research Project. He is presently operating his own con- sulting engineers firm, which spe- cializes in heating, air conditioning, and process engineering.

Mr. May and his wife, Mrs. Betty May, who is also a new instruetoc at Wilkes, reside on Old River with their two sons, ages 8 and 12.

Mr. May has clearly expressed his feelings toward Wilkes in say- ing that the college has a definite future and hope for an early ex- pansion of engineering facilities to a four-year program.

BOOTERS SECOND IN STANDINGS

WITH KNOCKOUT OF DUTCHMEN by Jim Hennighan

The Colonel booters won their second straight soccer match with a 5-0 win over the Flying Dutchmen of Hofstra at Long Island. This win evens the Wilkes team's record at 2-and-2 for this season and gives them a second-place berth in the league standings.

The game was played under a goalie and fulibacks to cope with fair sky and from the start the Colonels forward wall put the pres- sure on the Hofstra goalie. This was the reverse of the pattern of play that had been bothering the Colonels, for in past games the Blue and Gold had been on defense most of the time.

the power of the Colonels was evi- dent throughout the game. Carl Havira, Len Franckowiak, Nick Giordano, Lou Zwiebel and Ivan Pappanicholas started for the Blue and Gold with Havira, Giosdano and Pappanicholas featured in the scoring, with G i o r d a n o getting three, one on a penalty shot. In

For the first time this season the Wilkes team was unscored up- on, and the credit goes to goalie Bob Payne, who did a fine job all afternoon. Praise also must be given for the fine defensive work of hacks Joe Morgan, Ron Davis, Don Pierce, Pete Perog, and Bob Chew.

ATHLETE AWARD TO NICK GIORDANO

FOR BRILLIANT PLAY AT HOFSTRA Booters Represented In "Athlete" Honors by Star Center Forward

by Morgan Davis, Sports Editor Nick Giordano, playing the "big

foot" role in Saturday's game a- gainst Hofstra, is selected as the Beacon "Athlete of the Week." The prolific scoring center forward punctured the Hofstra goal with three big points. He scored twice from scrimmage and once with a a penalty shot. The first score was made with a head shot.

The Flying Dutchmen, always one of the stiffest soccer competj- toss in the East, have been dumped by the underdog Colonels for the past five successive years. Four of these years Nick has been one of the short fuses that has exploded in the face of this powerful Hof- stra team.

Nick is not new to the "Athlete of the Week" award as this is the sixth time in his four years at Wilkes that he has gained this coveted award. He has also won

Booters Open Four-Game Home Stand Tomorrow; Football Squad Takes 8- 0 Homecoming Victory Gridders' First Win Comes on Eller's ID, Michaels' Two Points; Two Thousand Fans Witness First Homecoming Victory in 5 Years

by Dick Myers IDon Eller's two-yard smash over the goal line in last Satur-

day's Homecoming tilt put the Colonels on the right track as they registered an 8-0 win over the Ursinus Bears. Both teams were winless before the contest and the victory broke a two-year .tlomecoming jinx each team held over the other.

A satisfied throng of some two thousand cheered lustily as they witnessed the first Homecoming win in five years, and the first entry by the Colonels into the winning colunn since Coach Pinkowski took over the reins.

The injury-plagued Wilkesmen pulled the trick with a beautifully balanced attack and a fine exhibi- tion of team play. Ray Yanchus filled in for Jay Kubicki anti did yeoman duty as quarterback while Bill Michacls and Mary Antirines did the lion's share of the hail- carrying to make up for the loss of Tom Krisulevicz.

Michaels carried 21 times for 48 yards as a workhorse and scored the two extra points on an off- tackle smash, while Antinnes aver- aged nearly five yards per carry with 52 on eleven tries. Eller carried four times for eight yards.

Following Eller's TD effort late in the second quarter, the two teams fought to a standstill. Near the end of the game the Grizzlies threatened twice, but a determined Colonel line held beautifully once on the three, then pushed the Bears back to the ten to thwart another drive.

The Colonels completed four of' eight passes, one a 49-yard thriller from Michaels to Ray Marchakai- tis, and registered 176 yards total offense, 101 by rushing.

BASKETBALL

Coach Eddie Davis invites all basketball enthusiasts to report to the gym Monday at 4 o'clock. The basketball squad has been working out the past two weeks but will still accept varsity and jayvee ap- plicants. The cagers will open a 3- game home stand on December 3; against Lycoming, Susquehanna, and Lebanon Valley.

COACH PLEASED WITH TEAM, HOPES TO SURPRISE LYCOMING by Ray Yanchus

The Wilkes Colonels take to the road t o m o r r o w and travel to Williamsport, Pa., to encounter the Warriors of Lycoming. With light spirits prevailing from last week's Homecoming victory, the Blue and Gold will be out to make it two in a row.

The team has been working hard throughout the week in prepara- tion for this week's game. Work- outs have been lively and Coach Pinkowski is pleased with the elated spirits of the players.

Concentration was placed heavily on correcting mistakes made in last week's game, and the coach feels that the Colonels are ready to do honorable battle with the powerful grid machine from Lycoming.

Coach Pinkowski expressed plea- sure over the fine play of such stalwarts as center Yorath Evans, ex-

Plymouth athlete; Ray Marchakai- tis, former all-scholastic also from Plymouth; halfback Bill Michaels; fullback Mary Antinnes, and Don Eller.

MUJ/AW( In' PHOTO-SUPPLIES U

He is hoping to be at full strength for tomorrow's game. In- juries to key players in the Penn Military game have cut deeply into the reserves, but Pinkowski hopes to see some action from Tom Kri- sulevicz and Joe Stralka very soon. Jay Kubicki is a doubtful partici- pant in this week's encounter as he is still nursing a knee injury.

When Wilkes makes the trip to Williarnsport, they will be facing one of the more powerful teams in small college ranks in the state of Pennsylvania. The Warriors are big, fast and have compiled an impressive 3 wins and 1 loss at this point in the football campaign. Their lone loss was the hands of Juniata, whom Wilkes faces here at home on November 1.

The Colonels will again be look- ing at two men who have given them plenty of trouble over the past two years, they are fullback John Joe and halfback Jack Grier. A couple of boys who can "pick 'em up and lay 'em down." The Blue and Gold will be out to con- tain these two tomorrow night, and return to the campus with win number two under their belts.

Hofstra last Saturday by a 5-0 score. The men from Rider have a 3-2 edge in the series with Wilkes with the Colonels taking their second win last fall.

The Roughriders have a pal-ti- culai- habit of being rather difficult opponents for Wilkes in all sports in which the two compete against each other. Soccer is no exception. The Colonels, however, al-c determined this year to even the series with Rider and to forge ahead in the win and loss columns.

Last week's shutout of the Dutch- men of Hofstra is an indication that the Colonel defense is stiffen- ing and the line play becoming mote efficient. Tomorrow's game has all the promise of being a good, hard fight, so tomorrow afternoon we suggest you go over to Kirby Park and support the soccer team.

East Stroudsburg Next Wednesday the booters will

greet their major nemesis of the season, East Stroudsburg State Teachers College. The team has played the Teachers eight times and have tied twice and lost the other six times. It is easy to see that they al-c number one on Coach Ferris' "lick" list. This game will also be played at Kirby Park, but at 3:30 p.m.

l'opularity Increase To most of those native to this

area, soccer is a relatively unknown sport; their only contacts with it being through what they read in the newspapers or the few minutes they might see of a game or intra- squad scrimmage in Kirby Park. In the larger metropolitan areas of the country, particularly here on the eastern seaboard, soccer is a well-known game and there axe organized professional teams and leagues in New York and Philadel- phia.

In Europe, the sport is compara- ble to baseball, our national sport; but to the Europeans soccer is somewhat of a passion and a national game with which everyone is familiar. It is not uncommon for a single game to draw crowds of 100,000 or more and there is a sta- ilium in Moscow capable of holding 120,000 people with ease.

In South America, soccer is followed with a somewhat more zeal- ous and often violent interest. Riots are commonplace and gunfire is expected at championship matches. During the international championship matches this past year, the government offices in Brazil were ordered closed and boarded because the government officials feared the soccer-induced enthusiasm would boil over into the streets and have its political implications.

The continent of Africa is not without it. There is one native tribe which plays a crude version of the game using a human skull as a ball. Here in the United States soccer is rapidly gaining in popularity, more and more colleges and high schools are adopting it as a varsity sport.

BOOTERS (cantinued from page 4) drive of the afternoon early in the second half but were turned back by some heady defensive work by Davis and Payne.

In the entire 88-minute contest the Colonels dominated play and with the unneeded help of some misplays by the Hofstra goalie rolled to an easy 5-0 win.

The winners of the Homecoming events are finally out. The results have brought many smiles and sighs. As for the statistics, they run this way:

First prize for the Homecoming display went to Gore Hall for their production of "The Ursinus Massa- cre." Those who viewed this display had no doubt that the men of Gore would win.

Second prize in this section went to the Biology Club for their crea- tion, "Bowl Them Over." A lot of hard work on the part of the members of the Biology Club went into this display.

Third prize was awarded to the Junior Class for the surrey they had on display behind the library. This showed a touch of originality and color on the part of the juniors.

The prize for the best decorated car that took nart in the car caravan on Saturday, October 18, was presented to Hugh Gladstone, a sophomore. His theme was "Pink Toyland."

The Lettermen also announced the winners of their raffle. The first prize was a choice between two tickets to the "Music Man" in New York, or two tickets to the Army-Navy football game. This was won by John Harvey, a senior. Second prize was the remaining pair of tickets and this was won by G. Linko.

There were three turkeys given away as prizes. These were won by William Zdancewicz, Marie Op- sitos, and Earl Harvey.
