A good turnout was had dur- ing the 2 smokers. We look for- ward to a prosperous and success- ful future . . . Congratulations to all the hockey team for a success- ful year.

Anyone finding a bottle of Charles An- tells Hair Restorer please con- tact Chuck Stewart... In closing all the Lambdas extend a hearty invitation to all freshmen to at- tend our Friday night smoker.

ZETA NU: It's been getting harder and harder lately to find someone who can honestly say he's caught up in all his work. Oh pity the poor EE . . . Gordie why is it that while most color slides have a balance of color, yours are predominately blue? It couldn't be the photographer could it ... It would be best for Steve to follow the old axiom, \Little boys should be seen and not heard\ at the rate he's going he will soon be supporting the •whole fraternity . . . The open house last Sunday was a whop- ping success, by the way Bernie when somebody asks if you know how to play rabbit, you don't re- tort by asking if they're a tur- tle .. . I t seems that the little back room got more than its share of attention Sunday, I won- der why. I understand that HLT enjoyed the afternoon immense- ly .. . Three cheers and a tip of the hat to the men on our basket- ball team, they played almost every night last week . . . Charlie does Bernie really owe 10c . . . After much diligent effort Hol- den finaly figured out why you go to Denver, leave three bags, go to Chicago, then Kingston and home. Poor Kent never did figure it out . . . Last Thursday night, after much deliberation, Goody finally succumbed to the wishes of the many and shaved his mous- tache .. . Hey Haus I know you're cheap, but must you play poker with the coffee money.

THETA CHI: The need for ani- mal companionship in the pent- house has finally been sufficed.

Our praise and thanks to Gloria who is busily engaged in knitting his official coat . . . Wolff jour- neyed to Cornell last weekend where he applied for a position as postmaster.

About all we can say is PAX NABISCUM . . . John and Les are going back to high school for a P.G. course. Too bad that Sue and Judi don't go to the same school... Szekely, Paintn, Gibson and Pitches are sporting their new green sweaters in unison because of the actions of their jealous fraternity broth- ers .. . With all the spring weath- er we've been having Killer has decided to call practices for the golf team. The boys ought to look quite sharp if those Theta Chi golf hats arrive . . . With all the long meetings going on nowadays it's a wonder that Stein doesn't open a coffee shop in the kitchen. He'd probably make so much money that we wouldn't have to pay for our meals . . . Next week is the big week. We hope that the brothers as well as the rushees live through it.

ALPHA CHI RHO: First off, be- lated congratulations to Jim Wes- ton and Martha Graham, and to Bill Eckert and Barbara Neuerth, on their recent pinning.

R. last Sat. night, and be- lieve it or not they came home sober! . . . What birddogger was being birddogged, and who was sitting all by his lonesome self at a place to lie down but why 87 Main Bill ? ... Larry Bass went out on a date, what'll happen next T ... Did George take Vera for a cruise ? What say George, for that matter what say Vera, for that matter what say, oh to hell with it... Just once Don B. wants to see his name spelled right in this column so here it is DON BOWLER ... We hear Don Woodworth had his date in stitches, is that right L. L.? ... Joe Foisey had quite a time ex- plaining to the Mrs. who that beautiful\ girl was that he was seen skating with Friday night. .. All joking aside we'll bet Jean has lad more kidding about her name than anyone else at P.S.T.C. . . . Who says you never get a good looking girl on a blind date, just ask It. W.... and as our boat sinks slowly in the harbor, glup .. . gulp ... glup ...

KARMA: Well, Ice Carnival is over for another year and the troops decided to head back to classes for a change. Needless to say, everyone enjoyed the weekend, especially our pajama party . . .

Congratulations from the rest of the fraternity . . . Con- grats are in store for Arnie Taran- to, our new Social Chairman ...

Og, Dave, Balz, and Topper are back at the cards again and the games are in progress 24 hours (or so it seems to the rest of the guys in the house) . . . Jack and Betty were seen all day Sun- day; this makes Jack a member of the \12 Hour Date Club\ . . . Dave, what is Yum-Yum, and why are you seen so often at LaShombs? . . . Where did Sandy go for his physical? . . . What's the reason for Dave's sore legs ? . . . Who was the pledge who kept saying \I'm not drunk!\ and then passed out? . . . Rumor has it that \Mike\ has applied for the post as Karma's of- ficial bell ringer after her experi- ence last Friday night . . . Dick M. and Ed C. send best regards to Nat. . .

OPIO: It has come through the grape vine that the cocktail party was very successful. The chaper- ones especially were heard to have had an enjoyable evening . . . Walt Johnson while on patrol Friday evening bumped into an acquaint- ance of his. Also, Gus broke away from the sunny south to do some indulging. And while we're on that subject, Yates met his match in a Between the Sheets Cocktail . . . Biff and Horse welcomed the T R bartender to work Saturday mor- ning, and on the other side of the fence is a sheriff and some girl's father asking if anyone knows a \Tom McGrath\. He went that-a- way . . . Everyone in the stunt has been wondering where Harvey al- most went. And with all those hairy legs on the ice, the arena re- sembled the live seal exhibit of a zoo. Congratulations to Ginny and Hunt, Donna and Leslie, and Gail and Crash. Pins on members in this house are getting as rare as mem- bers at work sessions . . .To those frosh who somehow or other mis- take this column for the sports sec- tion, we are having a smoker Mon- day night and we would like to see you down there because we can't smoke all the cigarettes . . . Last but not least, breakfast is served from nine A.M. to ten-thirty P.M.

ALPHA CHI RHO: The Crows can now boast, the only windmill out- side of Holland. Although it doesn't do much, it gives'us at least a pass- ing breeze . . . Congratulations to the King and Queen of the Ice Car- nival. They both deserve the honor. ... Deo and Morey were more than in a hurry for Wednesday to come —wonder why? ... The House has been like a zoo for the past few weeks with all those polar bears, around ... We had the company of eight men from R.P.I. last week and since there were only three ex- tra beds, the living room and parlor looked like a displaced persons camp Friday and Saturday . .. Morey, Deo, Whiz, and Mitch, shame on you, what did you do Sat- urday night anyway? . .. Remark- able, at long last Whiz had a date . . . After considerable difficulty our T. V. set works great. The trouble is now you can't get through the living room in the eve- ning due to the bodies laying around .. . Seems that we have Spook and the Col coming through the ceiling. The patch work doesn't look too bad, but who ever heard of anything like that?

ZETA NU: The big weekend has come and gone and now back to normalcy, we all had loads of fun. Charlie drove in style for the whole weekend. The tense one \made out\ rather well but Wendy seems to be giving Mabel the evil eye . . . Something seems to have happened to The Rock's ring, I wonder what? . . . This Saturday we have a little hockey game and after seeing what the boys do to each other on the ice just for fun I think an ambu- lance would be in order . , . Hey Staud tell us about your battle scar ... Oh Woe is poor little Lauren, the lad does not have an addiction to beer ... Bernie hasn't done any- thing of merit this week except to refuse to play cards with Jerry, but I thought it would be nice to put his ilame in the article... Question —Are you a turtle? . . . Webster for Pete's sake, quit brushing your teeth in the bathtub ... S. C. H. tell us now, were you having any trou- ble the other morning at about 5 ? Or as Cole say's, \IT MUST BE NICE\

Steve was awarded another star for hia unusual interest ... McEvoy swears that the milk punch waa good to the last drop ... Our Hun- garian lover is really living it up during his last semester at C.C.T. . . . Jim you ought to get permis- sion from the house manager when you change your sleeping quarters . . .
